belated antidote

Chapter 24 Angelica

Zhong Huaiyuan has always been a standard top student. Even if he doesn't get proper guidance emotionally, he can absorb the dross of other people's experience to achieve self-teaching after enlightenment.At this point, he is very confident in himself.

At first, Zhong Huaiyuan thought it was just a whim of the hothouse young master, but he didn't expect to gradually sink into the sincerity and tenderness of the other party, and it would be difficult to escape.

Mostly when you like someone, the way you look at everything is indeed different.For the first time, Zhong Huaiyuan, who has always pursued the truth, felt that his eyes had been filtered, and he keenly discovered some details that were ignored in the past.

"Yuanxiang Room..." Zhong Huaiyuan pondered over these three words carefully, trying to get rid of the elegant surface to find out the meaning that the hidden core wanted to express.

Zhong Huaiyuan put that thoughtful name into his mouth like a sesame candy and ground it finely, Qi Dongqing instantly became alert.His hand subconsciously touched the small-leaf red sandalwood abacus next to the computer, praying in his heart, "Don't scrutinize it to save face for the child."

"'Yuan' is taken from my name." Zhong Huaiyuan is so clever, he saw through it immediately, "Then correspondingly, 'Xiang' should allude to you."

What responded to him was only a series of piercing abacus sounds, without the elegance of big pearls and small pearls falling on a jade plate, but only a hoarse, mocking and ugly torture.

Zhong Huaiyuan was a little confused by Qi Dongqing's behavior, but he still did not give up his persistence in seeking the truth: "So what is the meaning of Yuanxiang?"

It's even more deadly to be searched out by the browser of the person concerned, and it would be more natural for him to confess on his own initiative.Qi Dongqing racked his brains for a long time to build up his mind, and finally mustered up the courage to speak out the poem that rotted in his heart.

"Evening winds come and go, blowing fragrance far away, and Susu holly trees and flowers."

Zhong Huaiyuan repeated it silently, looking at Qi Dongqing with indescribable distress and affection. "It's beautiful." He agreed.

It turned out that the names of the two of them put together such a beautiful and thought-provoking picture.The strong and obvious love was clearly broken, but he didn't realize it in the past, and his dullness and rough nerves had already brought harm to the other party without knowing it.

Qi Dongqing didn't stop turning the abacus, and Zhong Huaiyuan suddenly remembered that the little doctor repeated this movement uneasily when he pushed the door in for the first time.

Qi Dongqing's fingers turning the beads gradually turned red, reminding him of the cinnabar dripping from the brush. "Did I make you feel uncomfortable?" He took Qi Dongqing's left hand off the abacus and carefully wrapped it in his palm.

"I'm just shy and nervous." Qi Dongqing blushed and looked at the overlapping fingertips of the two, feeling the gentle caress of the other, suppressing the strong desire to kiss in her heart.

"The things left by my ancestors, my grandfather passed them on to me when I opened the branch library." Qi Dongqing glanced at the little red sandalwood abacus, "When you feel uneasy or anxious, you will feel more stable if you touch it."

Every time you dial, the sound of beads falling is like the earnest teachings of the ancestors, which can calm the mind at least, and keep one's mind clear at worst.It has worked well since kindergarten, but it will not work well when it comes to Zhong Huaiyuan.

Zhong Huaiyuan said thoughtfully: "So my appearance that day also made you nervous."

Qi Dongqing nodded slowly, not wanting to deny it: "It's a little bit, after so many years, I stopped thinking the moment I saw you."

"Then you have to learn to get used to it from now on." Zhong Huaiyuan's tone was flat but serious, as if he didn't feel that what he said at the moment was as heavy as a mountain.

Qi Dongqing raised his head in bewilderment to search for that voice, Zhong Huaiyuan used to put mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, firewood, rice, oil, salt, and diseases into the pupils of doctors and patients, now he is the only one.The lingering flow of the four eyes facing each other, the warm touch of clasped hands, and the sudden happiness lacks a sense of reality.

Qi Dongqing thought of the soap bubbles under the sun, and touched the iridescent surface even at the risk of being punctured. At that time, his mood was no different from what he is now.

"Is that what I... think?" He tremblingly opened his mouth, the surface of his lips gradually became wet from the friction, and even the tone of his words was wet after the rain.

Zhong Huaiyuan returned a somewhat unpredictable smile to him, and then pinched his tender palm reassuringly.

This is the first time he has this kind of feeling towards people, but he also knows the "sense of ritual" that ordinary people pay attention to.However, right now is not a very good time, Zhong Huaiyuan wants to pick a meaningful scene, and then solemnly convey his heart to Qi Dongqing.

He hoped that Qi Dongqing would recall the scene of being confessed to many years later, and his first impression would be the good weather that day, not the big bag on his head.

At this moment, Zhong Huaiyuan could only restrain himself and give a deadline: "When you recover from your injury, I have something very important to tell you."

"Can I overdraft in advance? I feel so panicked when you do this."

When I was young, my parents promised that I could go to the playground if I got [-] points in the test, because I couldn't stand the suffering of waiting, and begged to cash in advance every day.Qi Dongqing is also quite childish at the moment.

From Zhong Huaiyuan's noncommittal attitude, he actually vaguely knew the answer.But even if the answer is imminent, it will still make people nervous before it is officially announced.

When Zhong Huaiyuan faced being coquettish, it was rare for him to be cruel: "Don't make trouble, work hard, and take care of your wounds."

It is true that he wants to give Qi Dongqing a perfect memory, but he also does not want to see the other party struggle through the ambiguous period and be tortured by a relationship that seems to have nothing.

So Zhong Huaiyuan lowered his head, and kissed the little doctor's forehead at the moment when a strong smell of medicine rushed into his nose. "Is this ok?"

The one-touch kiss is like a check, tell Qi Dongqing to remember to bring it to him to cash it in a while.Qi Dongqing nodded with half understanding, letting the kissed skin sink into the other's shoulder slowly.

Qi Dongqing still had to see a doctor, and Zhong Huaiyuan said goodbye and went home after the opening time was up.Passing by the flower and bird section of the vegetable market, he stopped at the store he usually opened.

It's strange, he didn't plan to buy more green plants for his home, but when he came back to his senses, he realized that the direction he pointed was a potted holly plant full of vitality.

"Boss, help me wrap up this pot."
