Chapter 33
After the meal, Ji Ruan went back to the room to take a shower and began to prepare the sketches.
At nine o’clock in the evening, the door was knocked on time, and it didn’t take much thinking to know that it was Gu Xiuyi who came to deliver the milk.
It was like this throughout the winter vacation, as long as Gu Xiuyi was at home, he would take over Aunt Zhao’s milk delivery job at night, and it must be exactly nine o’clock, neither a minute earlier nor a second later.
This may just be his routine operation of fine-grained detail control, and the perfect timing will make him feel extremely comfortable physically and mentally.
But unconsciously, Zhong Ji Ruan also got into this habit. As the time approached nine o’clock, he would subconsciously wait for the door to be knocked.
He walked over and opened the door, as expected, he saw Gu Xiuyi and the glass of milk in his hand.
Gu Xiuyi didn’t pass the milk to Ji Ruan, but went straight into the room.
Ji Ruan paused, and closed the door to follow: “Are you not working today?”
Gu Xiuyi is very busy, most of the time, he is only responsible for delivering milk to Ji Ruan, reminding him to go to bed early, and then go to the study to work, very occasionally Under normal circumstances, he will come in and talk to Ji Ruan.
He turned around: “I’ll be on vacation from this afternoon onwards.”
“Oh…” Ji Ruan didn’t respond: “Then sit down, I’ll go to the bathroom first.”
Gu Xiuyi nodded, watching Ji Ruan trot into the bathroom and close the door When I pressed my hand on the frosted glass, I left a fleeting slap print, small and cute.
Gu Xiuyi couldn’t help smiling, put the milk on the desk, and looked at Ji Ruan’s small world.
Although there are many things on the table, it is very tidy. The lucky cat with its paws removed went to college with Ji Ruan, and went home from winter vacation together. Now it is smirking with its disabled paw on the second shelf of the bookcase. .
The candy jar he gave to Ji Ruan was also brought back, and placed side by side with the Lucky Cat.
Ji Ruan’s chair has experienced a cold winter and returned with full rewards.
Originally it was just a bare one, but now it has a cushion, pillow and neck support, and there is also a milky white blanket that is very popular with Ji Ruan for some reason. .
From a distance, it doesn’t look like a chair at all, it can be said to be a small nest, you can just throw a milky cat or dog on it, and you can roll around in it coquettishly all day.
–Of course Ji Ruan is almost there.
Gu Xiuyi couldn’t laugh or cry.
The bathroom door opened, and Ji Ruan came out wiping her hands, and sat back in the den, no, in the chair, spread the blanket over her lap skillfully, looked up at Gu Xiuyi: “Do you have anything to say?
” Ji Ruan sat down on the chair next to her. This was a really bare chair, even a bench.
The gap between the rich and the poor of the two chairs was too large, causing Gu Xiuyi to forget what he was going to say for a moment.
Ji Ruan seemed to have noticed that the place where Gu Xiuyi was sitting was too shabby, scratched the tip of his nose, and stuffed him with his pillow.
Gu Xiuyi didn’t refuse, the pillow in his arms was fragrant, the same smell as Ji Ruan, he didn’t understand why Ji Ruan, a boy, smelled so fragrant, even the things he usually used could be pickled.
Are boys all over the world like this?
Probably not, when Song Ling and Li Suian were young, their bodies were covered with the smell of sweat rolling in the basketball court.
“Boss Gu?” Ji Ruanbai shook his palm in front of his eyes, “What are you thinking?”
Gu Xiuyi came back to his senses, and said calmly, “It’s nothing.” He lifted his chin toward the table, “What are you drawing?” “
Ji Ruan touched the half-drawn pattern, “You mean this? It’s Zizhang’s birthday flower, the mountain primrose.”
He laughed as he said, “The language of flowers is compassion, and it feels like it but doesn’t quite look like it. “
Birthday flowers…” Gu Xiuyi’s voice was a little low, and nothing could be seen on his expression, but Ji Ruan somehow felt that he was not in a good mood.
Before Ji Ruan could ask, Gu Xiuyi casually found a piece of A4 paper to cover the drawing, and pulled Ji Ruan Weiliang’s wrist: “Don’t talk about others, isn’t your birthday coming soon? Have you thought about how to spend it?”
His palm was very hot, and Ji Ruan was reluctant to pull his hand out, and said with a smile, “I’ve thought about it, isn’t there an indoor playground in Times International, I’m going to play there with my roommate.” Gu Xiuyi’s expression was very subtle again
. “And my roommate…”
Ji Ruan was holding his left hand by Gu Xiuyi, and he was playing with his mobile phone with his right hand. He didn’t notice Gu Xiuyi’s expression, and asked casually, “What is your birthday in the Gregorian calendar?”
Gu Xiuyi had something on his mind, and I don’t know why he asked This, before I could turn my mind to it, I heard Ji Ruan say again: “Shall I make you another birthday flower?”
Gu Xiuyi raised his eyes suddenly: “… mine?”
“Yes,” Ji Ruan said with a brow With shallow dimples, his expression was very natural: “The thread I gave you before was not very good, and I like the tree myself. I should make another better one for you… Tell me, what day is it?” Gu Xiuyi
suddenly Hearing the sound of his own heartbeat, he hit his ear heavily, and his voice was a little stagnant when he spoke: “…October 11th.”
Ji Ruan slid his finger on the screen when he heard that, his eyes lit up, and he laughed: “It’s a holly tree, and the language of flowers is life…I really like this…”
He raised his head and looked at Gu Xiuyi, his eyebrows and eyes were particularly bright: “Don’t worry, I will definitely embroider you very beautifully.”
He smiled so beautifully , is basically a luminous little angel that descended from the sky, no matter how many times Gu Xiuyi has seen it, he can’t feel at ease with this kind of smile, and even willingly sinks deeper and deeper.
Gu Xiuyi’s whole body seemed to be rolled into boiling water, and he asked the words in his heart with the scalding heat:
“Can I come with you on your birthday?”
Ji Ruan seemed a little surprised.
Gu Xiuyi knew that indoor playground very well, even it was originally Gu Xiuyi’s investment project.
Of course, Gu Xiuyi is also very clear that the target group of their playground is young people aged 18 to 24, and there is a gap of six years between him and Ji Ruan, let alone Ji Ruan’s eighteen years old.
Some people may say that he is mediocre, and it is normal to go to the playground at the age of thirty, but no one will say anything at all.
But just like he would hesitate whether his age is appropriate, the fundamental problem of this matter is that he is very confused about how to span the entire twelve years and integrate into his life without disturbing Ji Ruan. .
Once people think too much, they will become anxious, but pure people don’t think so much.
Ji Ruan was only surprised for a moment, and then smiled brightly: “Of course, my roommates are actually very curious about you, and I am the birthday star, so I have absolute decision-making power.” See, he thought your nervousness was just because you were afraid of your
roommate will be inconvenient.
Gu Xiuyi’s smile couldn’t help being tainted with some bitterness.
Before leaving, seeing Ji Ruan bent down to continue drawing again, he hesitated for a second and patted him on the back: “Go to rest early, I’m not in good health and I always like to stay up late.”
?
Ji Ruan looked up, only seeing the back of Gu Xiuyi closing the door.
Where did he stay up all night? It’s only past nine o’clock, and elementary school students don’t go to bed so early!
On
Cheng Zizhang’s birthday, Ji Ruan took the embroidered primrose handkerchief to the bell tower to find her.
Since the last school celebration, the studio on the top floor of the school’s bell tower has almost become exclusive to him and Cheng Zizhang.
After the start of the semester, the curriculum was tight, so Cheng Zizhang moved the needle and thread into the bell tower to save time as much as possible.
As soon as Ji Ruan entered the door, she found that her complexion was not very good, holding a needle in one hand and covering her stomach with the other.
“Senior sister…” Ji Ruan observed her state, and thought of something, her cheeks were a little red, and asked embarrassedly: “Senior sister, are you that… uncomfortable?” Cheng Zizhang knew what he was talking about as soon as he heard it
. , was not shy at all, and said generously: “No, I must have eaten something unclean. I have a stomachache, and it’s not my period.
” I always feel that it is not good to ask girls that kind of intimate questions.
Cheng Zizhang patted the stool beside him casually: “Sit down, don’t stand.”
Ji Ruan helped her get a cup of hot water before going over to sit down: “Sister, don’t you need to go to the hospital?
” I’ve taken the medicine.” Cheng Zizhang covered his stomach and sighed, “And I have to finish the embroidery first, tomorrow is the deadline, and I have to hand it over to the organizer.”
Ji Ruan frowned: “Where is Lin Qing, Let him do it.”
When Cheng Zizhang mentioned this, he was worried: “I often can’t find anyone, and I don’t know what to do.”
She rubbed her hair: “Three days ago, he said that a relative in the family passed away, and he would go back to his hometown to attend the funeral , I also asked about their college, and they did ask for leave.”
Ji Ruan thought about it carefully after hearing this, and it seems that Lin Qing did not appear in Duan Zeping’s circle of friends recently, probably because of an urgent matter.
He thought for a while and asked, “How much is left now?”
Cheng Zizhang looked at the time and said, “Probably… we have to make it to night.
” Ruan couldn’t let the girl work all the time while sick, so she thought about it, “How about I embroider for you?”
Cheng Zizhang suddenly raised his head.
Ji Ruan met her eyes and smiled: “Why, don’t you believe in my skills?
” , showing it to her mother will probably be full of praise.
Cheng Zizhang is not someone who knows how to hold hands, combined with his own situation, he patted Ji Ruan on the shoulder without hesitation: “Then thank you brother, sister will treat you to dinner tonight!” “Farewell,”
Ji Ruan smiled He pushed her hand away: “I don’t dare to eat with you, and it will ruin my stomach.”
His eyes were curved, and the ends of his eyes were very beautiful when he lowered his head to thread a needle, and Cheng Zizhang also laughed: “This Your words are really wicked.”
Ji Ruan glanced at the scroll, became more serious, and asked: “What else do you want to embroider?” The
theme of this embroidery is a corner of a small courtyard, the pond path has been completed, and Cheng Zizhang is embroidering a low house For the last point, he said to Ji Ruan: “Help me embroider the remaining peach trees.
“
Seriously, the fine needles run through the thin cloth, laying out a piece of vivid colors.
Time passed by, the two of them didn’t speak anymore, and the room was extremely quiet for a while.
After an unknown amount of time, Ji Ruan suddenly let out a “hiss”, the sound was not loud, but it was especially obvious in the extremely silent environment.
Cheng Zizhang immediately raised his head, “What’s the matter, little Ruan.”
Ji Ruan’s fingertips were pricked, and the fine and sharp touch spread, and it was really painful. He frowned subconsciously: “It’s okay.
” Seeing that her other hand was still covering her stomach, she hurriedly said, “It’s okay, I just pricked my hand, senior sister, you can continue to embroider.”
He took out a piece of paper and pressed his fingertips, a small ball of blood smeared on the paper, Ji Ruan picked up the needle again and bent over, but suddenly stopped.
–There was a little red on the snow-white thin cloth.
It should be left at the moment when it should be pierced.
Ji Ruan forgot about her physical condition.
When an ordinary person is pricked by a needle, at most a small blood spot will emerge, but Ji Ruan is a little poor at clotting blood, so he accidentally dripped a drop on it.
All Han embroidery products require very fine workmanship, and sometimes very slight flaws can ruin the entire work.
Ji Ruan clenched his fingers secretly, and said in a hoarse voice: “Senior sister…”
“Huh?” Cheng Zizhang looked up and looked at Ji Ruan’s face: “Does your hand hurt?”
“No…” Ji Ruan said that he felt helpless : “That pear tree, can we change it to red plum?”
Cheng Zizhang glanced at Ji Ruan Juanbu, saw the little blood, and immediately understood what happened.
–Ji Ruan’s tree was only embroidered with branches, and it was embroidered in a twisted and thin way for freehand, but it can indeed be changed into a red plum without violating the harmony.
She turned Ji Ruan’s words in her mind, and couldn’t help laughing: “You still said I let you fly, where are you going?”
Ji Ruan raised his forehead: “This is an emergency.”
Cheng Zizhang Smile: “Okay, let’s change it, it’s fine if it’s a tree, whoever cares what kind of tree it is, just do it boldly.”
With the cooperation, the two finished all the work before the sky completely darkened.
Ji Ruan heaved a sigh of relief, lowered his head and beat his waist, Cheng Zizhang got up to drink water, and suddenly fell to the ground in the middle of walking, almost jumping out of Ji Ruan’s heart in fright.
He didn’t care about the back pain and hurried over. Cheng Zizhang was clutching his stomach and crying for pain. Ji Ruan just glanced at her face, and immediately called an ambulance without thinking.
“Xiao Ruan…Xiao Ruan…”
Cheng Zizhang weakly stretched out his hand towards him, and Ji Ruan held it without saying a word, his heart beating wildly in fright: “Sister, what’s wrong with you? You…wasn’t you fine just now?” “
“I don’t know either…” Cheng Zizhang almost swears in pain, holding Ji Ruan’s hand tremblingly: “Xiao Ruan… sister is going to die…” “
Which god damn restaurant is the most important thing?” …Kill me!”
“When I recover, I will definitely, definitely complain…”
Ji Ruan: “…”
Ji Ruan let her hold hands, with a complicated expression: “Sister… you should stop talking when the ambulance comes later, I’m afraid they will see that you still have the strength to scold people and not pull you away…” Cheng Zizhang stared
tearfully When he glanced at it, there was another cry of pain.
The ambulance came quickly, dragging the two to the hospital like flying, and pushing Cheng Zizhang into the operating room like flying.
The doctor told Ji Ruan all about his condition, and Ji Ruan felt extremely regretful looking at the closed door of the operating room.
Cheng Zizhang should have no chance to complain about any restaurant. The doctor said that she had acute appendicitis and could not rely on others.
After running up and down, Ji Ruan finally had a chance to rest for a while. When she sat down at the door of the operating room, she was so tired that she had a headache and her eyes were blurry.
He took out his phone to check the time, but saw more than a dozen missed calls – all from Gu Xiuyi.
Ji Ruan’s body trembled again, everyone was awake, and he called back, and the phone on the other side was answered faster than the ringing, Ji Ruan instantly heard Gu Xiuyi’s faintly anxious voice: “Where did you go?
“
Ji Ruan licked her chapped lips: “I’m in the hospital…”
