Stringy Wind in the Ear - Chap 34
The observation room was a three-person room, and Zhou Xu and Sun Pang’s beds were next to each other. There was also someone lying in the innermost bed, and there was a family member accompanying him. Song Yang found a square stool under the bed, lay on Zhou Xu’s bed, and asked him if he wanted to eat anything.
Zhou Xu said he had no appetite.
Fat Sun was sleeping, and they were chatting quietly about the game.
“It’s your first competition, and it’s pretty good to get fourth place,” Zhou Xu said.
Song Yang sighed silently. Getting fourth place was like getting 59 points in the exam. It was embarrassing to talk about it and regretful to think about it, but it was useless.
The flow rate of the drip is very slow. From the time they lay down until now, only half a bag has been infused, and there is still a large bag and two small bags.
Song Yang estimated that he would have to wait until about ten o’clock to finish losing all his money, so he went downstairs to rent a power bank to charge his phone.
At around 8 o’clock, the finals of the individual competition were over, and another group of people came to the ward, but they were driven out by the head nurse because they were too noisy. Everyone sat in the corridor on the ground floor, talking about the cause of the disease, and finally came back to the buns they had eaten earlier.
Because after Sun Pang and the others, some other people started to suffer from vomiting and diarrhea, Wu Jianian went to ask a few students who had diarrhea and found out that they had eaten food from that store in the morning.
“Who else had problems later?” Yu Shenwei asked.
“He’s from a sports school, but their school is close, so I took him home directly.”
“It must be something stale.”
Li Xun did not participate too much in the discussion. He was a practical man and directly searched the Internet for the phone number of the Food and Drug Administration to file a complaint.
Wu Jianian asked: “Is it useful to complain about this thing?”
“I haven’t tried it, but there must be a way around it.”
Li Xun talked to the person on the phone for a long time and explained the whole situation. The other party left his contact information and said that they would send someone to conduct a sampling inspection as soon as possible and would contact him later.
The matter has come to a brief end here, and subsequent matters can only be handled after waiting for the test results.
There is a competition tomorrow, so the team leader went out with a group of young boys.
When counting the number of people on the bus, they found that a “monkey” was missing.
——Three hours ago, Song Yang asked Li Xun for his opinion on staying overnight, but was ruthlessly rejected.
So he decided to take a different approach and start with the team leader.
Just now when everyone said they were leaving for school, he hid behind a beam downstairs in the hospital. He watched them get on the bus one after another before he called the leader at the right time and said evasively, “The infusion needs someone to watch over you. The coach and I take turns to rest. I’ve already booked a room for him. We’ll stay near the hospital tonight. You guys go first.”
It was already dark outside, and the team leader did not call to confirm the matter, but asked the driver to start the car. After all, Song Yang acted like a good student in front of others, and no one would have thought that a good student could fool people, and act so well that no one could find any flaws.
The rear end of the car turned and drove out of sight. Song Yang clenched his fists and whispered “Yeah”.
The next step is to capture Li Xun’s city.
Li Xun was definitely not as easy to deal with as the coach. He played a few games downstairs and ordered a takeout. He estimated that the school bus had already entered the highway, so he threw away the tin foil of the food to destroy the evidence, and then went upstairs carrying the plastic bag.
Li Xun was shocked when he saw him.
“Why haven’t you left yet?”
“I went to buy some porridge. There are many restaurants around here. I ran a long way. The team leader and his friends were getting anxious, so I asked them to go first. Since you are here too, I will just accompany you.”
Song Yang knew that he had a problem of blushing when he lied, so he practiced it several times in front of the mirror downstairs.
Everything has cause and effect, and the timeline is connected. Coupled with the superb acting skills, Li Xun was successfully fooled.
“Okay then. I’m hungry too. Do you have any extra?”
“Yes, I ordered three.”
Fatty Sun was already awake. When he heard about food, he moved his ears: “What kind of porridge is this?”
Zhou Xu was speechless: “Do you still have an appetite?”
“Of course I have no appetite, but I have vomited out everything in my stomach. If I don’t eat something to fill my stomach, my stomach won’t be able to handle it. I guess I’ve become skinny because of hunger.”
Song Yang: “…”
After the last bag of saline solution was hung up, the nurse came in and took their temperatures. Both of them had a slight fever, but the nurse said it was normal and they would be fine after taking some medicine tomorrow.
Li Xun asked her, “Is there any place for family members to sleep here? A simple place will do.”
The young nurse looked embarrassed: “I’m sorry, we don’t have that. There are limited beds here. You can either squeeze in or go back. It’s no big deal if they don’t have stomach pain. You don’t have to keep an eye on them all the time. Are you locals?”
“My home is a bit far away.” Li Xun thanked him and turned to ask Song Yang what he meant, “How about we get a room nearby?”
Song Yang’s mind was full of fireworks. He forced himself to suppress the corners of his mouth that were curled up, and sighed with regret: “Well, this is the only way.”
Li Xun sat on a stool, scrolling through the pages, while Song Yang put his elbow on his shoulder and pointed.
He saw a bed and breakfast room with elegant style.
“This environment looks so high-end, how come it’s only thirty yuan?”
Li Xun clicked on it and saw that it was thirty dollars an hour, and there was an additional service fee.
A bit of a pitfall.
The nearby hotels with higher ratings are no longer able to book twin rooms at this time, and only single rooms, double beds and couples rooms are available.
“This couple’s room looks very nice. The bed is round. I’ve never slept on a round bed before.”
Li Xun did not agree with him and finally chose a double bed because he had ordered a round bed out of curiosity before, but he couldn’t put his legs in it and it was easy to hit his head when he turned over.
The hotel was less than one kilometer away from the hospital, so they just ran there.
The snow had stopped, but there was still some snow on the boxwood trees by the roadside. The puddles on the road were shining, as if a heavy rain had just fallen, and the air was mixed with the smell of moist earth.
The two of them had long arms and legs, so they arrived there in no time.
The layout of the room is the same as what you see in the picture. After entering the room, there is a bathroom on the left, a wardrobe on the right, a bed and a TV cabinet in front, and a small balcony.
This room is a little smaller than Song Yang had imagined, but it is decorated very warmly. The wallpaper is dark green, and the pattern has a bit of British pastoral style. There are also scented candles on the bedside, and you can smell the aroma of coconut milk as soon as you enter the room.
Song Yang was like a newlywed on their honeymoon, taking photos with everything in the room, one after another.
Li Xun came out of the hot shower and blew his hair dry. When he turned around, he found that he was still retouching the photo with a tense face.
“Why are you acting like a little girl?” Li Xun walked up to him, snatched his phone away, and urged him, “Hurry up and take a shower. Do you still want to get up tomorrow?”
He glanced at the screen of his mobile phone. The center position of Song Yang’s nine-square grid was his back as he sat in front of the mirror and blow-dried his hair, but due to insufficient light, the picture was blurry.
This circle of friends also blocked the two groups of “family” and “relatives”.
“Why do you make it seem like we’re having an affair?”
Song Yang scratched his head, a little embarrassed: “My family doesn’t know that I joined the school team yet. I told them that I went out to travel with my high school classmates.”
“Then why don’t you just let me out?”
Song Yang didn’t explain much. When he stood up, he unconsciously glanced at his chest.
Li Xun was wearing a nightgown from his closet. It had a large V-neck, and the first button was below his chest, revealing a beautiful triangle of holy land. A drawstring was tied loosely. This nightgown was too short for him, and the sleeves could only cover half of his forearms, not to mention the hem.
Li Xun threw the towel in his hand over his head, rubbed it vigorously, and urged with gritted teeth: “Hurry up.”
Song Yang chuckled and took out another nightgown from the closet reluctantly. He tried it in front of the mirror. He thought his situation would be better than Li Xun’s, but he didn’t expect that it was a women’s style.
It is still a sexy and creative women’s piece.
There is a slit design at the back waist, which makes you look like a red carpet celebrity when you wear it, showing your chest, legs and back.
He tossed and turned, not knowing where to start.
“What the hell is this…”
Li Xun got into bed, looked up at the clothes in his hand and said, “You can also choose to sleep naked, I don’t mind.”
Song Yang’s heart was pounding when he heard this. Although he was looking forward to the day when he and Li Xun could hug each other naked, when the moment really came, he was still as shy as a girl getting into a bridal sedan.
“But I do mind.”
The heat in the bathroom had not yet completely dissipated, and Song Yang felt warm when he entered. When he was brushing his teeth in front of the mirror, he unexpectedly found his underwear and socks hanging on the towel rack.
His pupils dilated, and he half-stuck out with the toothbrush in his mouth to confirm: “Master, you are not wearing any underwear!?”
“Well,” Li Xun looked through some documents on his phone, “They may not dry out if left inside. Please help me take them out and hang them under the air conditioner later.”
His calmness left the frightened little lamb speechless.
Song Yang went back to rinse his mouth, hesitated for a long time, and then popped his head out to ask, “Then I won’t wear pants for a while?”
Li Xun thought it was funny and cute that he always asked for his opinion on everything.
“It’s up to you. If you want to wash, then wash. If you don’t want to wash, then talk about it tomorrow. I’m not so particular, but—” Li Xun tapped the phone screen, “It’s already late. You’d better finish your fight quickly. I’ll be in a bad mood if I’m woken up by someone.”
Song Yang disappeared from his sight at the speed of light, and then, a clear sound of flowing water was heard.
Li Xun continued browsing the web when WeChat rang with a video call notification tone. The caller was “Dad”, but the chubby little face of Li Chuzhi appeared in the center of the screen.
“Why haven’t you slept yet?” Li Xun asked.
The little girl had just woken up, her hair was scattered on her shoulders, her cheeks were red from the heating in the room, she pouted and looked aggrieved: “I had a nightmare, so I couldn’t sleep.”
“What nightmare did you have?”
Li Chuzhi complained in a baby voice: “I dreamed that you didn’t want me anymore.”
Li Chuzhi had been having similar dreams recently, and Li Xun felt a pang of pain in his heart. He could roughly guess the reason, because he had also had such nightmares for a period of time when he was a child. He either dreamed that his father didn’t want him or his grandparents didn’t want him.
Thinking back on it now, that period was when he was beginning to understand divorce. He obtained some information in a vague way, but didn’t know how to solve it. He was always worried that the people around him would leave one after another.
Li Xun comforted her in a gentle tone: “Dreams and reality are opposites. Don’t worry, I can’t possibly abandon you.”
Li Chuzhi asked: “Then why don’t you go home? Teacher Sun is on vacation.”
Li Xun: “Didn’t I tell you a few days ago that I still have to take students to the competition and will be back in a few days? Did you forget?”
Just at this moment, Song Yang came out and asked, “Who are you chatting with?”
Li Xun turned the camera towards the bathroom door: “Your sister.”
When his eyes swept over Song Yang’s look, he was stunned for a moment.
In fact, Song Yang was dressed very reservedly and conservatively, with his own sweatshirt on top and the whole robe folded in half and tied around his waist. From a distance, it looked like a slit skirt, and the highlight was his legs.
Song Yang’s frame is not broad, her legs are slender, and she doesn’t have much leg hair, so she looks like a European or American model.
To a certain extent, men are all obsessed with legs. Li Xun praised sincerely: “Your legs are quite long.”
“I inherited it from my mom.”
Seeing Song Yang kneeling and crawling towards the bed, Li Xun curled his lips as if he had discovered a new world, resisting the urge to reach out and pat him, and said, “Your butt is pretty good, too.”
“…”
Song Yang’s face turned red, and he slowly got into the bed. When he stretched his legs, he accidentally kicked someone’s foot.
At this moment, he was like a dragonfly resting on the tip of a leaf to drink the morning dew. The slightest movement could make his whole body tremble, as if there was a pair of wings flapping behind him.
The quilt was a bit narrow, so when he came in, Li Xun had to move closer to him and said, “Chuzh wants to chat with you. She had a nightmare. Please comfort her.”
Their thighs were almost touching, and when Song Yang felt his hot body temperature, he sat up straight as if struck by lightning. Then, he smelled a fresh mint scent – from the relatively cheap toothpaste in the bathroom.
All the inconspicuous smells and touches would produce a wonderful chemical reaction once they touched Li Xun. Song Yang pulled at the small piece of the nightgown that was pressed down by Li Xun to cover his sensitive parts.
They took turns telling Chuzhi a fairy tale. Li Chuzhi fell asleep, but they all exceeded their biological clocks and stared at the chandelier on the ceiling.
The soundproofing of the room is average, and you can occasionally hear people walking in the corridor and cars passing by outside the window.
The shadows of the trees swayed fiercely in front of the window.
Song Yang asked softly: “Master…”
“Um?”
“You haven’t fallen asleep yet.”
“Well,” Li Xun turned his head, “Do you choose a bed too?”
of course not.
It’s mainly about choosing people.
“Probably,” Song Yang asked again, “What do you usually do when you can’t sleep?”
Li Xun was silent for a while, then laughed out loud: “I can’t say.”
“Why not…” Song Yang reacted, feeling as hot as a balloon about to explode, and excitedly pulled the quilt over to cover most of his face, “You are so lustful.”
“You are the one who is lusty. I didn’t say anything but you thought about it that way.” Li Xun snorted, “I don’t know who has a bunch of Animal World files stored in their phone.”
“How come you still remember? Actually, I deleted all of them. They don’t look good…”
“That means you’ve seen it all.”
“Ah!” Song Yang kicked his legs wildly, twisting into a cabbage worm in the quilt, “It’s not as exaggerated as you think. I haven’t seen it for a long time.”
Li Xun raised his foot and pressed down on his calves: “Don’t move, you’ve taken away all the heat – did you use shower gel?”
Song Yang was as stiff as a wooden man, even his breathing became cautious. He blinked and asked, “How do you know? There is a fragrance?”
“It’s very slippery…”
