Chapter 53

Li Wenyu woke up from a hot dream. In front of him was Pei Xin's face that still looked cold under the dim light. He put his hand on Li Wenyu's forehead and said in a deep voice: "I thought you were going to burn."

Li Wenyu hummed blankly: "It's a little hot."

His palms and back were sweating, and he felt uncomfortable.

Pei Xin laughed a little angrily, and simply pulled him up: "Get up, go to the hospital."

He found a long coat from the closet and threw it to Li Wenyu. He used his mobile phone to check the location of the nearest hospital, and found that there was no hospital on the island. , the only few clinics were closed early in the morning.

Pei Xin scratched his hair irritably, rummaged in the closet for a thicker piece of clothing and said, "If you're going to take a boat ride, wear this."

He took the bottle of seasickness medicine he bought before from the desk drawer and poured it into the cup. He took one pill out and said, "Take the medicine first."

Li Wenyu reacted very slowly, but he was rarely obedient. After taking the medicine, he put on his clothes and followed Pei Xin downstairs.

The night was dark, and the moonlight shone on the slippery road like condensed frost.

Because there are so many tourists on the island, there are boats running to and from the pier 24 hours a day. There were not many people there late at night. Sitting on the boat, you could clearly hear the sound of rushing water, and the neon lights on the buildings in the distance shimmered on the sea.

Li Wenyu was as groggy as a pot of paste. He leaned on the back of the chair by the bow window and closed his eyes. Pei Xin supported him and put his head on his shoulders.

Li Wenyu's whole body was extremely hot. The warmth penetrated into his skin through the clothes on Pei Xin's shoulders. Pei Xin lowered his eyes and looked at his crimson face: "You are almost burning me."

" Really?" Li Wenyu said vaguely, "Just go to the hospital and get a fever-reducing injection in a while."

He turned his shoulders again and nestled into the edge of the chair to find the cold temperature. Her neck was hanging down, docile and soft, like a cat that had found its nest.

Pei Xin saw that he was confused with fever, so he just hummed along with his words, then looked down at his watch.

Li Wenyu also opened his eyes a little. Pei Xin's hands have clear joints, are slender and clean, and look good when playing chess or playing the piano. The mechanical watch strap looked very dark in color on his hand, but the pattern was complicated, and it didn't match the clothes he usually wore.

No wonder he doesn't like it.

Li Wenyu thought in confusion, and soon closed his eyes again due to dizziness.

Immediately after getting off the boat, there were more people around. Even though it was early in the morning, there were still not many cars on the street, and the coming and going brought a messy and cold wind.

Pei Xin stopped a taxi, and Li Wenyu got in the car and went to the dock to take a look back. Under the dark night, the sea water is also black. Only under the moonlight can you see some rough waves. Silence or excitement are all colors of late night.

They came to City C for seven days. During the seven days, it was always rainy here. The sea in Li Wenyu's eyes was always gray.

The taxi drove very fast, and it was nearly three o'clock in the morning when they arrived at the hospital.

Li Wenyu was on an intravenous drip, but he looked more energetic than before, and his face didn't seem so red. When Pei Xin came back after paying the fee, he saw him sitting in a daze, staring at the photo wall on the white wall.

"Why aren't you sleepy?" Pei Xin sat next to him.

"Well, I felt energetic after entering the hospital." Li Wenyu looked at him with dull eyes and a heavy nasal voice. "I rarely came to the hospital before. I came many times in the past two months."

Pei Xin looked down at him for infusion. On his hand, the veins became more prominent after being wiped with alcohol, and the veins were clear. Youyou complained: "You are in poor health."

Li Wenyu shook his head: "Maybe it's because we are not acclimatized, or maybe we are not compatible."

This was the first time Pei Xin heard this . Li Wenyu told himself something like a joke, and raised his eyebrows with the corners of his lips raised: "Let's figure it out some other time, maybe we can change our luck."

Li Wenyu's eyelids trembled, he hummed, and stopped talking. .

The hospital was very quiet, and not long after, the sound of pattering rain could be heard outside again.

The rain really stopped, stopped, and came again and again.

The drips of infusion merged with the sound of rain. When the nurse came to remove the needle, she was so sleepy that she yawned. Seeing that Li Wenyu was in particularly good spirits, she was a little surprised: "Huh? Why are you not sleepy even when you are sick?"

Li Wenyu He twisted his wrist that had been stiff for a long time, smiled and said, "I'm used to staying up late."

They were sitting away from the wind. The further they went outside, the clearer the sound of rain at the door became, and the wind also hit people's faces. Li Wenyu tightened his coat a little tighter and walked out of the hospital door.

The rain has subsided, but it still hasn't stopped, with strands drifting diagonally into the eaves.

Pei Xin stopped Li Wenyu who was about to walk out and looked at the convenience store across the street with dark eyes: "Wait for me here for a while, and I'll buy an umbrella."

Li Wenyu paused in his steps. His expression was a little stunned.

Pei Xin frowned and looked at him sideways: "What's wrong, are you burning up?"

The shadows of the two were stretched by the light from the hospital, blending with the puddles on the ground, and were soaked by the pouring rain.

Li Wenyu blinked slowly and said, "I know."

Pei Xin let go of his hand and strode down the steps. He walked quickly, pausing only briefly to cross the street. Under the streetlight, Li Wenyu could see that the clothes on his back were soaked by the rain bit by bit. As the car passed by, Pei Xin plunged into the darkness of the cold rainy night and disappeared.

There was only one salesperson in the convenience store tallying goods at the cashier. When he heard someone coming in, he turned his back and said welcome.

Colorful umbrellas were placed on the shelves in the corner. Perhaps because there were so many people buying umbrellas on rainy nights, they were not placed neatly.

Pei Xin took a blue long-handled umbrella and went to the cashier to pay.

"Hello, it's thirty yuan in total." The salesperson smiled politely, took the umbrella, scanned the code, and then pointed to the counter behind him, "There is hot milk on sale at half price. Do you want it?"

Pei Xin looked into the thermos cabinet. He looked at the hot milk packaged in a glass bottle and nodded slightly after looking at it for a moment: "Take one bottle."

The salesperson wrapped the milk that was a little hot through the glass bottle in a paper bag and handed it to him with a smile: "Slow down, welcome to visit next time. "

Pei Xin opened an umbrella at the door of the convenience store. The material of this umbrella was not very good. Light shone through under the lamp, and the blue umbrella surface was almost translucent.

The sound of rain became more urgent. He held an umbrella in one hand and carried milk in the other and walked towards the hospital. Across the road, he saw no one at the entrance of the hospital.

Pei Xin frowned and walked through quickly.

With the light from the hospital, he could see clearly that not only was Li Wenyu not standing where he was, but there was no one in the entire dark corridor.

His expression changed slightly, he closed his umbrella and walked up the steps into the hospital. The hall was so bright that there was no one except the nurse sitting at the front desk.

"Hello, the person who was sitting over there for the infusion just now, did you see which way he went?" Pei Xin's clothes were wet and clinging to his skin. He looked a little embarrassed at this time, but he didn't notice it at all, just his expression changed. a little cold.

The nurse looked up from the signed receipt in her hand, a little confused: "I didn't see it. There was a person at the door just now, but he must have been gone for a while."

Pei Xin squeezed the umbrella handle tightly, inexplicably thinking of Li Wenyu and Li Wenyu at the night market that day. After they were separated, Li Wenyu stood in the corner with an obviously uneasy face. He became a little irritable, so he simply threw the milk in his hand into the trash can next to him and hurried out.
