Chapter 24
Ji Ruan’s hands were stiff.
He had never learned to swim in his previous life, and it was even more impossible in this life. It was a terrifying feeling to be out of control in the water.
“I can’t.” Ji Ruan pointed to the external device behind his ear: “I will take this off when I go into the water, and I won’t be able to hear it.” “It doesn’t have to be learned.”
Gu Xiuyi smiled: “Relax and play. Isn’t it good?”
His tone was very light, and there was an inadvertent laxity between his words, as if mixed with some kind of subtle persuasion.
Ji Ruan’s heart skipped a beat.
Suddenly I understand why experts like to emphasize entertaining and entertaining.
When Gu Xiuyi proposed to teach him at the beginning, Ji Ruan only felt that “learning” was a very difficult thing, and subconsciously rejected it, but when he knew that the other party’s original intention was not so purposeful, he relaxed a little.
Although the term entertaining and entertaining is no longer suitable for him, Ji Ruan gradually felt the urge to try when he saw the ripples on the water surface.
After all, swimming recklessly in the water is also a joy that he has rarely experienced in his barren life.
Ji Ruan licked his lips: “But I don’t have swimming trunks.”
This swimming pool is not open to outsiders, and there seems to be no place to buy it.
Gu Xiuyi and him looked at each other, the sparkling water reflected in Ji Ruan’s eyes, shining with dots of light, soft and moving.
He knew that Ji Ruan had been persuaded.
Most of the time, Ji Ruan is a very understanding child. He doesn’t seem to deliberately hide his emotions, or he doesn’t bother to hide his emotions. He can do whatever he thinks, as long as he is comfortable and happy at the moment.
So this kind of straightforwardness will make him look extraordinarily innocent when he is not aware of it, like a refreshing smoothie in summer, and it will also make the hearts of those who watch him jump in an instant.
“You can just wear ordinary shorts,” Gu Xiuyi propped himself up against the wall of the pool and went ashore: “Did you bring any?”
He deliberately moved a distance away, but still splashed a few drops of water on Ji Ruan’s face, hanging crystal clear on the brows and under the eyelids.
Gu Xiuyi didn’t think much, and habitually squeezed Ji Ruan’s chin to wipe it off, but forgot that his hands were still full of water.
As a result, Ji Ruan’s entire face became wet, and he looked up at him, looking a little dazed.
Ji Ruan seemed to be confused by this face of water, and stared at Gu Xiuyi in a daze: “…are you playing a prank?” His
eyes were very big when he was in a daze, and the unbelievable emotions in his eyes were particularly contagious.
Gu Xiuyi let go of his hands, looking at Ji Ruan’s appearance, he wanted to laugh, and quickly held back: “Sorry, I forgot to wipe my hands.” “
…”
Ji Ruan wiped his face with his sleeves, and stood up on his knees After squatting for a long time, he was a little dizzy and his eyes were black. He had long been used to this situation, so he swayed and then stood firm.
Gu Xiuyi came to help him again, his wet hands soaked his sleeves, sticking to his skin.
Ji Ruan supported the opponent’s arm subconsciously, touched the tight muscle with scorching body temperature and water droplets, and bounced off reflexively.
He closed his eyes and waited for the black mist in front of him to dissipate: “…Would you like to wear some clothes?” “
I know,” Gu Xiuyi’s voice sounded calm: “Wait for you to recover first.”
The two left Very close, Ji Ruan could feel the other person’s body temperature and smell the damp moisture on his body.
Ji Ruan unconsciously relaxed his breathing, and his vision gradually cleared up. He took two steps back and struggled out from the distance where he was almost being hugged: “…I’m fine.
” Much more stable, picked up a bathrobe and put it on, tied it loosely around the waist: “Go and change your pants.”
It seems that he only half-hugged Ji Ruan and waited for him to stand up out of humanitarian concern, gentleman, Polite, honest gentleman.
Ji Ruan touched the tips of his ears, and paused for two seconds before following.
When going to the room to change his pants, for some unknown reason, Ji Ruan dug out another vest and put it on.
This vest and shorts are a set. The thin fabric is printed with a dark blue oil painting sea surface. It is one of Ji Ruan’s summer pajamas.
Seeing him coming out, Gu Xiuyi twitched his eyebrows indistinctly, and took Ji Ruan back to the swimming pool without saying anything.
“Wet your body before getting into the water to get used to it.” Gu Xiuyi said.
Ji Ruan sat by the pool, her calf soaked in the water, Wen Yan reached out and brushed some water on her neck and forearms.
The water in the constant temperature swimming pool is actually not particularly cold, but there is still some gap with the body temperature. Ji Ruan was shocked, his teeth chattering: “Is this so ?
” Gu Xiuyi squatted down beside him and splashed a few handfuls of water on it. Ji Ruan immediately trembled, shrugged her shoulders and grabbed the sleeve of Gu Xiuyi’s bathrobe to hide beside him, twisting her whole body into a ball. Gu Xiuyi patted his shoulders with a smile on his face: “Are you so afraid of water?” How can the little mermaid be so afraid of water? “Why are you scared…” Ji Ruan wiped her cheeks with the back of her hand, her fingertips were white and tender, and she was very unconvinced: “It’s just not adapting, it’s just a normal physiological reaction.” “Well, yes, it’s a physiological reaction.” Gu Xiuyi will Locked in his arms, Ji Ruan flicked the water involuntarily, soaking the half-dry Little Mermaid in just a short moment, making him tremble slightly, with crystal drops of water on his chin. Ji Ruan’s skin was delicate and slippery. When Gu Xiuyi wiped off the water drops, he felt his fingertips caressing the soft silk, and he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart. “It’s almost there.” He touched the external device behind Ji Ruan’s ear, and asked in a low voice, “Have you picked it?”
Even the ends of Ji Ruan’s hair were wet, and the wetness around his ears gave him a sense of crisis. He felt that if he didn’t take off that thing, he would get in the water, and he had no time to think about other things: “Take it off quickly.” Gu Xiuyi wiped his hands dry and took off the external
device Put it on a table not far away, then take off your bathrobe and jump into the water.
He knew that Ji Ruan couldn’t hear too many voices at this time, so he simply didn’t speak, but opened his arms towards Ji Ruan, motioning for him to come over.
Just now Gu Xiuyi’s action of entering the water was a bit handsome, Ji Ruan tried to imitate it a little bit, not wanting to lose too badly in terms of momentum.
He bit his lip, stretched his palms, and jumped.
Ji Ruan felt that he entered the water very gracefully, but in fact, he seemed to just slide in with a “Zi Liu”.
Because he couldn’t even stand firmly, his feet slipped the moment they hit the ground, and he was almost drowned in the boring shallow water, but in the end Gu Xiuyi fished him back.
The effect of Gu Xiuyi’s long-term fitness was vividly reflected at this moment, and the hand that hugged Ji Ruan’s waist was unsteady.
Ji Ruan choked on some water, coughed on his shoulder, and gradually calmed down.
He was carried by Gu Xiuyi and moved towards the middle, the water rippled on his chest, his feet felt empty and insecure, but his heart was stimulated by this light experience.
It was the second time that Gu Xiuyi held Ji Ruan’s waist like this.
The last time it was the day of the heavy rain, Ji Ruan was drenched and her waist was surprisingly soft.
But this time it was a little different, Ji Ruan might be a little scared, his body was tense, and his waist seemed extraordinarily flexible.
Gu Xiuyi could clearly feel his shallow waist. Soaked in the water, the already thin cloth on Ji Ruan’s body became even more insignificant, and his palms stuck to it like skin.
Gu Xiuyi turned his head and took a deep breath, let go of the hand holding Ji Ruan’s waist, turned to support his arm, and began to force himself to concentrate on teaching.
Ji Ruan is just a rookie in swimming at the moment, completely immersed in the charm of the blue water surface, blinking her big eyes full of joy, not noticing Gu Xiuyi’s abnormality at all.
Because he couldn’t hear clearly, he didn’t notice that Gu Xiuyi was unusually silent.
They even think that Gu Xiuyi is very professional, teaching him movements, giving him guidance, and helping him to keep him from choking on water. If Gu Xiuyi is not the boss, maybe he can consider applying for a swimming coach.
Although Ji Ruan didn’t learn it at all.
He may really have no motor skills. After soaking in the water for nearly an hour, he didn’t master any skills except for thumping and shouting for help.
In the end, he was so tired that he lay on Coach Gu’s body to pant for breath.
Coach Gu is also very helpless. Swimming has never been suitable for this kind of gentle teaching method. No one can learn it without choking on the water.
But he didn’t intend to train Ji Ruan to be a good swimmer at first, just to make a fuss with the children.
He just didn’t expect that Ji Ruan’s physical strength was so weak that he was hanging on him the whole time, and he was still so tired that he couldn’t breathe.
“Oh!-“
The person in his arms suddenly fell down.
Gu Xiuyi moved faster than he realized and caught the person: “What’s wrong?”
Ji Ruan choked on water the moment he slid down, his brows were frowned and his face was full of pain: “Legs…cough cough…”
He cried out in pain and unconsciously bent his back, Like enduring great pain.
Gu Xiuyi immediately realized that it was probably a cramp.
“Ji Ruan-” He stopped in the middle of speaking.
Ji Ruan couldn’t hear clearly.
Gu Xiuyi supported the back of Ji Ruan’s head, pressed him on his shoulder with a little force, and attached it to his ear: “Ji Ruan, it’s okay, it’s just a cramp, relax…” He said while leading Ji Ruan
to Walking along the shore, holding Ji Ruan by the waist to let him leave the water, he climbed up quickly by himself, and carried Ji Ruan to the reclining chair not far away.
Ji Ruan’s right calf cramp was a bit severe, and the convulsions could be seen with the naked eye. When Gu Xiuyi pressed it a little, he groaned in pain to avoid it.
But Ji Ruan didn’t like sports, he had almost no muscles on his body, his thin arms and legs were covered in soft flesh, and his strength couldn’t compare to Gu Xiuyi’s at all.
So when Gu Xiuyi held his ankle, stretched and rubbed it, he could only bear the pain and be a rotten salted fish.
The calf flesh under the palm gradually returned to softness, Gu Xiuyi’s back also relaxed, stood up and let out a long breath.
He took two steps forward and pinched Ji Ruan’s chin: “Let’s not take you to exercise in the future.”
Tormenting himself also scares others to death.
Ji Ruan was probably tired from cramps, and his eyes were unfocused on the void.
Gu Xiuyi waited for a while, but didn’t get a response, and then remembered that he couldn’t hear at this distance.
A deaf child with completely closed five senses.
“Taking a mandarin duck bath, old Gu-” Duan Zeping’s voice echoed in the empty swimming pool, followed by a series of footsteps.
The group of people came to swim and exercise after eating barbecue.
Duan Zeping got closer, only to find Ji Ruan who was drenched and listless on the recliner, and said “Yo”, “What’s going on?
” Hugged up: “You guys play, we’ll go back first.”
After saying that, he left coolly, leaving a group of people looking at each other in blank dismay.
“What’s the situation?” Duan Zeping was shocked: “Did you really take a mandarin duck bath?”
Li Suian glanced at the clear water and said calmly: “In your eyes, Lao Gu is such a person who does not respect public morals?”
In the end, he knew Ji Ruan’s physique best Song Ling hit the nail on the head: “You guys think too much, Ji Ruan must have cramp.”
Everyone: “…”
Back
in the room, it was still Ji Ruan who took a shower first, and then lay down on the bed weakly after a quick shower.
This bed is 2.5 meters by 2.5 meters. Two people only need a quilt to lie on it, and it can almost be regarded as separated by a Milky Way.
Ji Ruan was so tired that he didn’t have the strength to think too much, so he went to bed first, and his remaining rationality allowed him to occupy only a small part of the right side.
When Gu Xiuyi was taking a bath, he was always hesitating about how to sleep at night, and Ji Ruan was just an adult, so if he rashly proposed to sleep together, it would inevitably take advantage of the children.
This seemingly luxurious suite has a huge loophole, except for a KingSize bed, there is no sofa for normal adults to rest on.
If he doesn’t sleep together, he will have no place to stay. After all, this is not his own hotel. He and Ji Ruan have already obtained their certificates.
Mr. Gu, who was decisive in the shopping mall, was stumped by trivial matters, thinking hard in the bathroom, and took the longest shower in his life.
When he came out, he found that Ji Ruan had already fallen asleep, and there was only a small lamp by the bed in the room.
Lying on his side with the quilt in his arms, the external device was taken off and placed obediently on the bedside table, his cheeks sunk in the soft pillow, and he slept very sweetly.
Gu Xiuyi’s heart was hanging in the air for a long time, but in the end it seemed that he was the only one trapped.
A child with an open mind will not have those mediocre worries.
He approached slowly, staring at Ji Ruan’s sleeping face silently, then gently rubbed the back of his hand against the child’s face, sleeping soundly, with flushed cheeks.
Gu Xiuyi didn’t sleep very deeply that night, and he didn’t get into the state until the middle of the night.
“Pa…”
There was a slapping sound in the haze.
Gu Xiuyi frowned, but did not wake up.
“Crack!”
Another sound was much louder.
Gu Xiuyi suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head.
In the darkness, Ji Ruan was still obediently lying on his side, but suddenly he raised his hand and hit his thigh with a “slap”.
Before Gu Xiuyi could react, he slapped himself hard again, so frightened that Gu Xiuyi immediately leaned over and grabbed his wrist.
“What are you doing, Ji Ruan?”
Ji Ruan opened his eyes in a daze, but his eyes were still loose: “Hmm…?”
Gu Xiuyi turned on the light without saying a word, and held Ji Ruan’s face to look at it. His white face was rigid He drew a bright slap print by himself.
Gu Xiuyi: “…”
Gu Xiuyi’s heart twitched: “What are you beating yourself for?”
Ji Ruan seemed to have finally come out of a dream, rubbing her hair and sitting up slowly, under Gu Xiuyi’s eager eyes He rubbed his eyes unhurriedly, stared blankly for a while, and then groped around.
Gu Xiuyi waited anxiously, stretched out his arm, picked up the external device, put it behind Ji Ruan’s ear, and patted his face lightly: “Huh? Ji Ruan? Tell me why you hit yourself?”
Ji Ruan shifted his gaze to Gu Xiuyi’s face, still not quite Focusing, the end of sleepy is abnormally cute and sticky.
He rubbed against the palm of Gu Xiuyi’s hand, and said “Ah” softly: “There are mosquitoes…” “
Mosquitoes…”
Gu Xiuyi’s mouthful of blood choked in his heart.
So this person slaps himself hard, is he also beating mosquitoes in a dream?
Where did the mosquitoes come from? !
A gust of breeze blew by, blowing on Gu Xiuyi’s bare arms, he turned his head slowly –
the window was wide open, and the curtains were pulled up and swayed slightly.
The beautiful mountain scenery during the day turns into a mosquito base camp at night.
Gu Xiuyi pulled up the back of Ji Ruan’s hand and calf to check, indeed he found a lot of red mosquito packs, Ji Ruan was still dazed and stretched out his hand to scratch, Gu Xiuyi quickly stopped him.
“Don’t scratch, you’ll bleed if you scratch.”
Ji Ruan frowned, broke free from Gu Xiuyi’s hand, and leaned against the head of the bed: “But it’s itchy…” “You
can bear the itch.” He pulled Ji Ruan’s wrist He raised it to his ear, “Wait for me for a while, don’t let go of your hands.”
Although this suite has no sofa, but other facilities are barely complete, and there is toilet water.
Gu Xiuyi found Ji Ruan and sprayed it on Ji Ruan’s body. When the light was bright, he saw the mosquito drinking Ji Ruan’s blood with his own eyes.
It’s not small, but it’s still a flower.
No wonder it was able to bite out such a big bag.
But Ji Ruan was very Buddhist, no matter how the mosquitoes swayed in front of him, he either waved them away, or beat himself, but refused to attack the mosquitoes.
Gu Xiuyi looked at it for a while and couldn’t stand it any longer. He raised his hand and made a loud sound.
Snapped–!
He shot the flower mosquito to death with perfect precision.
Gu Xiuyi looked at the small lump of blood on his palm, it was all of Ji Ruan’s precious Rh-negative blood type A…
Inexplicably, his heart ached.
He went to wash his hands, and when he came back, he saw Ji Ruan was still leaning on the bedside and wandering, he couldn’t help feeling a little angry, he walked over and pinched Ji Ruan’s face: “Are you reluctant to kill?” Mosquitoes bite you like this
. beat?
Ji Ruan was completely woken up by Gu Xiuyi’s resounding slap on the mosquito.
He has always disliked beating mosquitoes, they are dirty, and he has to get out of bed to wash his hands after filming.
When she wanted to defend herself, Ji Ruan’s eyes flickered suddenly, and there was a hint of cunning in her eyes.
He showed a big smile, with round dimples, looked at Gu Xiuyi’s wet fingertips, and said in a tone of admiration, “Wow, Boss Gu is so amazing~” “…?
“
Gu Xiuyi’s suspicion and resentment turned into a tremor down his spine.
Just hit a mosquito… what’s the big deal?
Gu Xiuyi looked at Ji Ruan’s beautiful dimples, and the corners of his lips raised uncontrollably.
Just helping to fight a mosquito… Is it necessary to smile so sweetly?
——————–
The author has something to say:
Later, Mr. Gu, whose vanity was greatly satisfied, took the initiative to undertake all the work of killing mosquitoes at home, intoxicated and happy in it.
