Chapter 148: Top Student’s little Desktop Pet 23 (part 2 of 3)
Gu Qiange inexplicably felt uneasy after Shen Tong left with Kong Baiji, and was barely able to wait till dawn, before immediately deciding to hurriedly drive over to Kong Baiji’s residence. Unfortunately, no one answered his knocks, the phone call couldn’t get through as well. Thus, the great top student promptly decided to find someone to directly pick the lock.
There’s only two floors in this villa. Only after having gone through the first and second floor, did Gu Qiange locate the basement. When he broke into the basement, he could hardly believe his eyes.
Gu Qiange gnashed his teeth. He had no idea, how he managed to open the legcuff with shaking hands, how he snatched the other from Kong Baiji’s arms, nor how he took off his windbreaker to cover the youth up. He didn’t have the time to beat Kong Baiji, nor did he have time to control the questioning and clamor of the security guard outside the house about his lock picking behavior. As he only focused on hurriedly going out while carrying the youth, and only had the youth’s well-being in his mind.
He was wrong.
He shouldn’t have allowed him to leave last night. This was completely due to his negligence. He had failed to protect him, and had failed to promptly rush over to his side in the time he needed him……
Shen Tong slightly opened his eyes in the midst of the jostle. But he was still very delirious, and couldn’t discern whether he was awake at all. Nonetheless, he still subconsciously snuggled into Gu Qiange’s chest.
This very small movement, was instantly felt by Gu Qiange, who immediately guarded the youth’s head on his chest even more closely and carefully. Because of this, Shen Tong’s cheek was pressed against his chest, allowing him to clearly hear the other’s increased heartbeat due to anxiety.
Thump, thump, thump. Shen Tong fell asleep again in the company of this sound. But Gu Qiange’s nerve still didn’t loosen the slightest bit even after he brought him to the hospital.
He went to the hospital where Feng Yi works in. Although Feng Yi is sharp-tongued, but he is the most reliable individual among several of his old classmates. In this kind of situation now, only by going to him can he be at ease, whether it be from the security and privacy aspects, or from the medical treatment level.
Feng Yi personally squeezed some of his time to come over and do the treatment in person. Gu Qiange anxiously waited outside, with his gaze fixed on the ward door. He seemed to be pressed down by an invisible boulder, which was so heavy that he couldn’t move an inch. Fortunately, the treatment procedure didn’t take too long. Gu Qiange hurriedly went in the moment the door was opened, and was immediately criticized by Feng Yi in an unprecedentedly severe tone afterwards.
“How could you be so heavy handed! Fortunately you didn’t do the last step. Otherwise, it would’ve been of no use even if you are my old classmate, as I would’ve directly reported you to the police in place of the patient!”
Feng Yi had a very good impression on Shen Tong before, so there would inevitably be some anxiousness in his tone, he had also mistakenly thought of Gu Qiange as the culprit. Gu Qiange also didn’t think of explaining the truth, and only took on the blame. He then asked on how Shen Tong was doing now.
Seeing him so anxious that his hands trembled, Feng Yi’s tone eased a lot, as he replied: “He has a fever over 40 degrees, in addition to large area’s of wound inflammation. Moreover, he’s still in the developmental stage, ejaculating for too many times can cause great damage to the kidneys. Aren’t you aware of these general knowledge that causes decline in body function and immunity?”
Gu Qiange stood beside the hospital bed. He wanted to touch Shen Tong’s face, but silently withdrew his hand in the end. The person on the bed closed his eyes, and looked aggrieved as he curled into a small ball under the quilt. His cheeks were abnormally flushed, making Gu Qiange incomparably distressed.
Feng Yi gave Shen Tong an IV drip, then supplemented his words: “There’s actually no serious physical problems. The fever will fade away, and the wounds are just minor injuries as well. Only the psychological issue needs to be watched closely. I think you should pay close attention to his reaction after waking up……”
Whether it be in the physical or mental aspects, Gu Qiange was naturally more worried than Feng Yi. Having regarded his little Desktop Pet as his most precious treasure in his heart since long ago, Gu Qiange would be distressed for a long while even if the other merely sustained a minor injury on his hand, not to mention with this current condition of his. In the great top student’s mind, a teary-eyed Q version little crybaby, who was softly crying in pain, had already materialized. He would rather bear to suffer ten times the pain in his stead, than seeing him even have a single strand of broken hair.
Kong Baiji arrived not long after Feng Yi left. Gu Qiange prevented him from entering by blocking the door of the ward, as he gritted his teeth with a deep gaze: “Don’t force me to raise a hand against you in a place like a hospital.”
However, Kong Baiji didn’t say anything, nor did he take any actions. He merely looked at Shen Tong through the glass window.
The youth was peacefully asleep, with an IV drip on his hand. His cheeks seemed to look even redder against the white pillow. He also frowned in his sleep. Kong Baiji motionlessly stood outside the glass window for a long time like a stone statue, before quietly saying afterwards: “.…..help me look after Tong Tong.”
Truth be told, Kong Baiji was also feverish, in addition to having a hangover. His voice still sounded very hoarse, like a very parched traveler, who had been walking for quite a long time in the desert. He left the hospital after only saying this words, then returned into his car. He gazed at the sun in the sky through the moonroof of the car.
The sun was very bright, but Kong Baiji couldn’t see the slightest trace of brightness before him. He could only hear the heavy and slight sound of his heartbeat, as if it was in it’s death throes.
He suddenly thought of the youth’s pair of limpid eyes. Thought of the youth’s appearance when he look up to him with his small face and called him big brother with full trust. He also thought of those childhood days with the youth. All of which were the brightest times in his life.
Shen Tong woke up at night, with a body full of sweat. Having held onto his wrist, Gu Qiange could feel that he was very sweaty through the sleeves, in addition to his still very high temperature. Gu Qiange carefully approached him, as if a slightly larger movement would scare him away, “Tong Tong, is there anything uncomfortable?”
Shen Tong shook his head. But Gu Qiange continued to softly coax him, as if he hadn’t seen him shake his head: “Baby, be good. Sleep a bit more. It won’t be uncomfortable when you sleep.”
Gu Qiange simply treated him like a fragile little paper doll, and was worried of breaking him if he exerts a bit of effort. But not knowing that the other was completely not as fragile as he thought.
After passing through several worlds, Shen Tong had more or less grown up as well, and was no longer that innocent boy at the beginning. He didn’t feel the presence of any serious physical problems, nor did he produce any psychological shadows. He still even regarded Kong Baiji as his beloved older brother, and only attributed his abnormality to the fault of drunkenness and the bug. The white floccule that reappeared had also admitted that the system has been unable to resolve the bug yet, and had asked Shen Tong to give it more time.
But the more Shen Tong said that he was okay, the more Gu Qiange felt that he wasn’t fine, —— Feeling that the beloved baby, who was wronged but refused to say so, was because he was afraid of worrying Gu Qiange. Nowadays, not only has Gu Qiange been very careful with Shen Tong, but even Father Shen and Mother Shen have also become even more pampering towards Shen Tong through this time’s disappearance and hospitalization. They had even acquiesced to his cohabitation with Gu Qiange.
So after having been discharged from the hospital, Gu Qiange welcomed Shen Tong to a small western-style house, with a very beautiful flowerbed full of flowers and plants in the yard. The bright and clean french windows and wooden floors in the house were also bathed by the warm rays of sun together with the flowers and plants. The entire place was brimming with springtime’s vitality everywhere.
