Chapter 138 Do you know what it means to be love-struck?
Was Huo Yubai kidnapped?
I really didn't expect that.
“The police station can check,” Huo Yubai said.
Ren Zile thought he had it all figured out, but then a dark horse emerged.
Huo Yubai said, "There is a metal fragment in the left side of my brain. Because it is close to a blood vessel, it has not been removed."
Ren Zile put his hand down.
Huo Yubai won.
I looked intently at Huo Yubai.
He was hungry as a child, then he was kidnapped and suffered a brain injury. What exactly did he go through in his life?
He smiled at me.
I felt uneasy: "I'm going out for some fresh air."
After saying that, I got up and left.
Huo Yubai followed me out.
We arrived at the lake.
At this moment, a beautiful ring of lights illuminated the area around the lake, and many lotus lanterns floated on the surface of the lake, making it a very beautiful sight.
Huo Yubai stood behind me: "If you're sad because of me, there's really no need for that."
I turned around and said, "It's not on your behalf. I was just thinking that I don't know you well, and I don't know much about him either."
“He has never suffered such injustice as I have.” Huo Yubai walked over: “Although we are twins, when we were born, someone took us to do a test. The test showed that his IQ was very high, so even though he was an illegitimate child, he was taken back to the Huo family.”
I was shocked.
"The Huo family values these things, but they don't care about emotions," Huo Yubai said coldly. "Even if they train a tool without feelings, as long as it has a brain, that's enough."
"So, is he also unhappy?" I frowned.
"...Maybe." Huo Yubai said expressionlessly.
Actually, I had many more questions I wanted to ask, but I was afraid of upsetting him, so I didn't press him further.
"Huo Yubai, I really didn't expect that you've liked me since junior high school." I said in surprise.
His dark eyes were deep: "Shen Yan, it's my business that I like you, you don't need to worry about it. After all, I never expected you to give me any response from the beginning."
I didn't speak, nor could I say anything.
"Cough cough." Huo Yubai coughed.
"It's too cold, let's go back." I reminded him, "Really, you come all the way to the mountains and you're dressed so lightly?"
He was only wearing a coat, which offered no protection against the mountain cold.
I looked at him; his cheeks were slightly flushed, probably because he had a fever.
"Professor Shen," Yan Yu said as she approached, "Everyone's calling you, saying they're getting ready to cut the cake."
"Huo Yubai, go back to your room. I'll come find you in a bit," I said.
He replied, "I'm fine. Besides, it's Dai Chen'an's birthday, and I'm going to wish him a happy birthday."
I frowned.
Why does it feel so strange and sarcastic?
no way.
We went back into the tent.
Jiang Miao and the others are preparing a cake.
"Professor Shen, come quick!" Jiang Miao pulled me over.
Dai Chen'an stood beside me, wearing a birthday hat. He smiled helplessly and said, "Jiang Miao insisted that I wear it."
"Everyone does this on their birthday," I said.
Huo Yubai stood at the entrance of the tent, looking at us calmly.
Qi Zhao and Jiang Miao began to light the candles.
"Shouldn't we take a picture?" Qi Yang said.
Ren Zile took out his phone: "Let me take the picture."
Jiang Miao paused for a moment: "Mr. Huo, could you please take a group photo for us?"
"Okay." Huo Yubai held out his hand: "Give me your phone."
Ren Zile handed him her phone and then stood next to Qi Yang.
Huo Yubai held up his phone: "Okay, look here."
Jiang Miao suddenly nudged me, and I accidentally bumped into Dai Chen'an's shoulder.
Dai Chen'an helped me up with his hand.
"It's done." Huo Yubai said coldly.
"Mr. Huo, thank you," Ren Zile said with a smile.
"Cough cough." Huo Yubai coughed even more violently.
I went over to him and said, "You guys celebrate first, I'll take him back to his room."
"it is good."
I walked over and said, "Come on, I'll take you back to your room and get you something to eat."
Huo Yubai returned the phone to Ren Zile.
He followed me.
I slung my bag over my shoulder and walked with him toward the guesthouse.
Jiang Miao moved closer to Ren Zile: "Take a look and see how the photos turned out!"
Ren Zile opened the photos, only to find that there was only one photo of Jiang Miao and Qi Zhao.
It was taken by Huo Yubai.
Qi Zhao's gaze towards Jiang Miao was almost drooling.
"Delete it!" Jiang Miao's face darkened. "Delete it now!"
"Oh," Ren Zile said awkwardly.
"How did the filming go?" Dai Chen'an asked.
"That's not good, let's take another one," Jiang Miao suggested.
"I'll take the picture," Ren Zile said, holding up his phone.
Dai Chen'an's gaze darkened slightly.
-
Return to the room.
Huo Yubai's cough worsened.
He could barely straighten his back.
I was furious: "I've told you so many times to take care of yourself, and what have you done?! Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
I helped him to bed.
He lay down.
I covered him with the blanket and asked helplessly, "How are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?"
He grabbed my hand: "Don't be angry, I'll definitely remember this time."
"Huo Yubai, do you really not want to live anymore?" I frowned.
"Before I met you, that's what I thought," he said self-deprecatingly. "Nobody wants me to live."
"Nonsense," I corrected. "As a friend, how could I possibly want you dead?"
“So you are my only light.” His voice was hoarse.
I didn't hear you clearly: "What did you say?"
"Cough cough." His face turned red from coughing.
I pulled my hand out, rummaged through my bag for the medicine, and then took out a bottle of mineral water: "Take these medicines. This is for fever, and this is for cough. After you finish taking them, get a good night's sleep. You should be better by morning."
He was very obedient and got up to take his medicine.
"Give me Uncle Huo Fei's phone number, and I'll call him and ask him to send some clothes over," I said.
He pointed to the suitcase: "There's a down jacket inside."
I was speechless: "You have a down jacket but you don't wear it?"
"Because I think I look better dressed like this." He smiled and said, "You seem to really like me dressed like this."
"So you did this just for me?" I frowned deeply.
He nodded.
"Huo Yubai, do you know what 'love-struck' means?" I asked.
"I know." He blinked. "I don't think there's anything wrong with being love-struck. Everything I do is for the girl I like. I'm willing and happy to do it."
I don't want to talk anymore.
But then she couldn't help but scold him: "Don't you know that you have to love yourself before you can love someone else?"
“I can’t do it.” Huo Yubai closed his eyes. “Because there have been many times when I’ve thought about just dying. Loving myself? I just can’t bring myself to love myself. If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have been able to hold on for so long.”
I endured countless difficult nights by relying on my longing for you.
"I'm not as good as you say." I said calmly, "Huo Yubai, I can't like you, I really can't."
His actions put a lot of pressure on me.
"Shen Yan, I've said it before, I don't need you to respond to me. Just don't avoid me." His voice trailed off.
The fever reducer is working.
He fell asleep.
Seeing his hand gripping mine tightly, I felt a mix of emotions.
