Although Jing Ci said that there was nothing wrong with him, Tao Mingzhuo always felt that his fall was definitely not light and insisted on taking him to the hospital for a check-up.

Facts have proved that Tao Mingzhuo's judgment was correct.

On the way to the hospital, Jing Ci suffered from persistent dizziness. After arriving at the hospital, the doctor arranged for him to undergo several examinations.

Jing Ci was sitting on the bench in the corridor, with Tao Mingzhuo and Yang Kening pacing back and forth anxiously in front of him.

Jing Ci was actually extremely dizzy. There were two big living people walking around in front of him, and he felt more and more dizzy in an instant.

But he still comforted you in a gentle voice: "It shouldn't be a big problem, don't worry."

Yang Kening was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak out: "Uuuuuuu, Mr. Jing, I'm sorry for you, I don't need it next month . With the salary, I can still work overtime for a month..."

Tao Mingzhuo was even more anxious: "If I had known earlier, I should have let you hug me, so that if I fell, I would fall to the ground first, I am more resistant to falling.

" Ci: "..."

After the examination results came out, the doctor stared at the film and pondered for a moment, then asked Tao Mingzhuo: "How did he fall?"

Tao Mingzhuo was embarrassed to tell the truth: "Just, he just fell on the ground. "

It's a slight concussion. The film doesn't seem to be a problem at the moment, but it's best to stay in the hospital for one night and stay here for observation." The doctor pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose. "After you go back, you have to rest for ten days. No exercise, no work." Take an appropriate amount and try to keep a relaxed mood."

Looking at the scratches on Tao Mingzhuo's arm, the doctor looked puzzled: "Your arm also needs to be treated. How can two young men still wrestle together on the ground? Falling like this?"

Jing Ci and Tao Mingzhuo fell into silence at the same time.

Because no matter who it was, they couldn't say something like "We fell down while hugging each other" to the old man in front of him.

After leaving the clinic, Tao Mingzhuo started busy helping to pay the fees and take orders, but never treated the wound on his arm.

After entering the ward, Jing Ci was first forced to lie down on the hospital bed by Tao Mingzhuo. As if he remembered something, Tao Mingzhuo turned around and walked out the door.

Jing Ci hesitated for a moment and said to Yang Kening, "Can I trouble you and accompany him to treat the injury on his arm for a while?"

Yang Kening finally realized what he was doing, and said "Oh" in sudden realization, and followed suit. Ran out of the ward.

Jing Ci smiled and shook his head and sighed.

Since she met Tao Mingzhuo, Jing Ci has done a lot of things that have exceeded her own bottom line, such as smoking and dancing. These are things that only she would try when she was studying abroad.

It's just that my mind was not yet mature at the time, so I could indulge myself so completely regardless of the consequences, but now the consequences that Jing Ci needs to bear are much more troublesome.

Jing Ci had already made a lot of changes to his work plan for these three days of activities. Now the doctor said that he needed to rest for a while, which made him suddenly feel a headache.

The most important thing is that staying at home for ten days... means that he will not be able to see Tao Mingzhuo for another ten days.

There were footsteps at the door. Jing Ci raised her head and found that it was Yang Kening and Tao Mingzhuo who had finished bandaging walking back together.

Jing Ci said, "You guys should go back and rest first."

Yang Kening said, "But..."

"Go back first." Jing Ci shook his head, "It's not good to have too many people in a place like the hospital. I also need to be alone." "Quiet."

This was actually the first time that Jing Ci ordered them in such a tone. Although Yang Kening understood that his intentions were good, he still inevitably hesitated and whispered: "...Okay Jing." Sir, please have a good rest."

Yang Kening turned around and said to Tao Mingzhuo, who had been silent for a long time. "Let's go."

Tao Mingzhuo raised his eyes and looked at Jing Ci for a moment, then nodded.

Watching Yang Kening and Tao Mingzhuo leave the ward together, Jing Ci lowered her eyes.

His head was still a little dizzy, and Jing Ci also felt a little nauseous. He took a deep breath, endured the discomfort, took out his cell phone, and sent a message to Li Yupo.

Ten days of rest will not actually have a big impact on work, because meetings can be changed to online and meals can be postponed.

But...I won't be able to see Tao Mingzhuo for another ten days.

Jing Ci's original intention was to have more meals with Tao Mingzhuo, but he didn't expect that he would overdraw his future opportunities.

The dizziness was still uncontrollable in a short period of time, so Jing Ci sighed and closed her eyes and lay down for a while.

After a while, Jing Ci opened his eyes when he heard footsteps coming from the door.

Then he met the eyes of the tall young man standing at the door with a bag in his hand.

Jing Ci was stunned for a moment: "Why are you back?"

Tao Mingzhuo was also stunned: "I sent Yang Kening back to the hotel, so I came back?"

Jing Ci became more and more confused: "You are already here Hotel, why are you coming back?"

Tao Mingzhuo looked in disbelief: "Why do you think I won't come back? I must be coming back to stay with you?"

Jing Ci blinked.

Tao Mingzhuo coughed heavily, as if to cover up his discomfort, he lowered his head, took out a few popsicles from the plastic bag in his hand, and stuffed them into Jing Ci's hand.

"You just said...you want to eat popsicles." He said, "I didn't know what flavor you like to eat, so I bought one of all the flavors."

He sent Yang Kening back to the hotel, and then returned to the hospital. On the way, Tao Mingzhuo happened to pass by the venue where the comic exhibition was located.

He hesitated for a moment and then asked the driver to stop the car.

Although it was impossible to tell who was right and who was wrong when it came to falling, Tao Mingzhuo felt that it was all his fault no matter how he looked at it. If he hadn't had that inexplicable desire to win and insisted on going to the princess to hold Jingci once, then the series of butterfly effects that followed would not have been triggered.

It was already dusk, and luckily, Tao Mingzhuo found that the popsicle stall had not closed yet.

Coincidentally, Tao Mingzhuo discovered that the theme IP of the popsicle stand was a game he participated in producing, and some of the character stickers on the popsicle happened to be the hero skin series of "Xia Chong Yubing" that he participated in drawing last year. of.

The popsicles are ordinary fruit popsicles, but because they have stickers of different game characters on them, the price has doubled.

Tao Mingzhuo even suspected that there was something wrong with his ears: "Tell me again, how much does this one cost?"

The stall owner saw that he was wearing clothes of another game character, and his expression suddenly became impatient: "Twenty-one "If you don't buy it, I will close the stall. What we sell is not popsicles, but the love and feelings for the characters!"

The artist himself, Tao Mingzhuo, thought for a moment and felt that his love for the characters might still be a little bit behind them.

In the end, he honestly took out 100 yuan to buy five popsicles and continued to rush to the hospital.

Jing Ci here didn't expect that Tao Mingzhuo still remembered what he said casually at that time.

He stared at the popsicle in his hand for a while. After a while, he raised his head, rolled his eyes at Tao Mingzhuo, and said, "Thank you."

"You eat too." Jing Ci put a popsicle in Tao Mingzhuo's hand. .

Tao Mingzhuo: "Ah, okay."

Tao Mingzhuo put the things in his hands on the ground and sat beside Jing Ci's bed.

The two began to eat popsicles in silence.

Although he bought the popsicles for Jing Ci, Tao Mingzhuo was very focused on eating, and his eating efficiency was still amazing. He was eating popsicles at a rate of almost one bite.

Because of the fall just now, Jing Ci is still a little dizzy and her stomach is not very comfortable.

But seeing Tao Mingzhuo eating big popsicles, he lowered his eyes with a smile and slowly took a few bites of the popsicles.

Cold and sweet, it melts little by little on the tip of the tongue.

After a while, Jing Ci said: "You go back to the hotel to rest first."

Tao Mingzhuo bit his popsicle, looked at him, and said vaguely: "I don't want... you can't be here alone, I must be here I'm here with you."

When he said the words "I'm with you," his expression was very determined. Jing Ci looked at his profile and her eyelashes trembled.

Jing Ci put down the hand holding the popsicle.

"Tao Mingzhuo." Jing Ci called his name, "The doctor just said that I need to rest at home for a week, right?"

Tao Mingzhuo swallowed the ice in his mouth and shook his head: "It's ten days, and I can't exercise. , to reduce the workload and maintain a comfortable mood."

He remembered these details very clearly.

Jing Ci said "hmm": "I don't know how long the dizziness like this will last, and because I live alone, there will definitely be some inconveniences in my life."

"And Doctor Wen, it's You can't live in the kennel for too long," Jing Ci said. "But I feel that in my current state, there is no way I can take it out for a walk every day."

Tao Mingzhuo nodded blankly. Just when he thought Jing Ci was going to entrust Dr. Wen to him again, Tao

Mingzhuo heard Jing Ci say, "So I wonder if you would like to come and live in my house for a while?"

The person froze: "W-what..."

Jing Ci looked at him and smiled: "Walking the dog is one thing, the main reason is that I can't go out for ten days, and my mother is still traveling, so I also hope that my family will I can have someone here to accompany me and talk to me."

Tao Mingzhuo's expression froze this time: "Come with me, accompany you..."

Jing Ci understood that Tao Mingzhuo might have other ideas. He thought about his concerns and added some conditions.

"Because this time it takes up more of your personal time, I can pay you some extra compensation." Jing Ci said, "You don't really have to chat with me all the time or anything, you just need to be like Just like when we get along in the evening, just eat with me.

"As for other times, we can do our own things," he said, "but this time the place is at my home."

Tao Mingzhuo was speechless.

"So, I can give you double your salary." Jing Ci looked into Tao Mingzhuo's eyes, "Are you willing to come to my house and have dinner with me every day?"

Jing Ci knew that Tao Mingzhuo blushed very easily. 's physique.

But this was also the first time that he saw with his own eyes that Tao Mingzhuo's face turned red from normal to like a cooked shrimp so quickly.

Strangely, in addition to Jing Ci's expected surprise, Tao Mingzhuo's face also had a complicated expression similar to "I knew it", which made Jing Ci feel a little confused.

"It's not impossible to live in your house." After a while, Jing Ci heard Tao Mingzhuo stammering, "It's just that I... I need to think about it seriously."

He fell silent. After a moment, he added: "Because of me, I am usually very busy, and my parents... and my sister all need me to take care of them."

Jing Ci said "Ah" and said clearly: "It doesn't matter, you Don't rush to answer me."

However, Tao Mingzhuo coughed: "It's okay, I can call them now, but you... you'd better not have any hopes."

Jing Ci smiled: "Okay."

Tao Mingzhuo almost ran out of the ward.

Jing Ci looked at his leaving figure, lowered his head and exhaled.

In fact, at the end of what I just said, when it came to the excuse of "wanting someone to talk with me", Jing Ci could hardly make up any more.

Jing Ci didn't know what kind of answer Tao Mingzhuo would give. In fact, for a moment just now, he was ready to confess his illness to Tao Mingzhuo.

The reason why he didn't say it for a long time was because Jing Ci suddenly realized at that moment that the reason why he always wanted to spend more time with Tao Mingzhuo was not just to look at his face and eat. .

Jing Ci first stared at the door of the ward in confusion for a while, and then his eyes fell on the bag that Tao Mingzhuo had just used to hold popsicles. Then his eyes suddenly froze again -

because Jing Ci saw Tao Mingzhuo in the bag. Burning mobile phone.

Jing Ci: "...?"

A minute later, Tao Mingzhuo reappeared at the door of the ward.

"The call is over." The young man said calmly, "My parents said there was no problem. They said...it would be good for me to help my friends more."

Seeing that Jing Ci didn't speak for a long time, Tao Mingzhuo pursed his lips again. , asked casually: "So what date do you think is more appropriate for me to move to your house?"
