Chapter 51:


Jian Shiwu stopped in his tracks, and hesitated: "Why is it suddenly hurting, is there something wrong?"

The camouflage he insisted on holding on to was quickly taking over his mind, his cold face became white and there was even a thin layer of cold sweat rising, his voice was low and hoarse: "It's not serious, just call the doctor for me."

Jian Shiwu had speculated before whether Shen Cheng was in fact seriously injured, although he had always showed a calm look, but as Qiao An had said, this man was far too tolerant. The lingering smell of medicine mixed with the faint smell of blood in the room, besides, if it wasn't serious, the doctor would not have had to come every half hour to change the medicine.

Just before he went upstairs, he passed by the doctor's room and found him dispensing hanging needles and a series of emergency anti-inflammatory bottles, all of which indicated that the wound on Shen Cheng's back was by no means a minor one, and might even be more serious than he thought.

Jian Shiwu was a little panicked as he jogged out , "Wait here, I'll go out and call a doctor for you."

He opened the door quickly and ran to the doctor’s door, following the route he remembered. He was panting as he described Shen Cheng’s situation, as if his life would be lost if the doctor didn’t get there as fast as possible.

The doctor thought something big had happened and ran to the young master's bedroom: "What’s wrong?"

Who knew that Shen Cheng was no different from his previous calm and breezy self, although it seemed that something was indeed off. He spoke in a hoarse voice: "Take my temperature."

?

The doctor was puzzled, hadn't he taken the temperature before, and didn't you already have a fever, so why are you talking about taking it now?

He was about to say something when Shen Cheng lifted his eyes and gave him a twilight filled glance, a glance that contained so much that the doctor felt as if he understood something in the dark eyes, and he replied, "Yes, young master."

The workplace was not easy to live in. Hee did his best to cooperate with Shen Cheng’s performance. After taking the temperature for a long time, the doctor glanced at Jian Shiwu next to him, coughed lightly and frowned, "It is indeed a fever.”

Jian Shiwu was really worried and came over, "Uncle, is Shen Cheng’s situation very serious?"

The doctor sighed, with an air of seriousness: "Whether the fever goes down or not depends on tonight, it will be more or less painful."

Although Jian Shiwu felt something was strange in his heart, but the temperature of the thermometer in front of him was indeed real, the smell of medicine in the room was also real, Shen Cheng's pale face was also real, he was a very good at holding back and enduring pain, and if such a person was showing weakness, it means he must be really hurting….

Thinking about this, Jian Shiwu's heart twitched and his eyes flickered slightly: "How could this be..."

Shen Cheng interrupted his thoughts and looked away, whispering, "Don't you still have to go visit Annie?"

Jian Shiwu: "Huh?"

Shen Cheng lowered his head and coughed sullenly, his entire shoulders trembled along with him, he looked very vulnerable at the moment, the boy lowered his eyes, "If you want to go, you go ahead, don't mind me."

......

Jian Shiwu felt inexplicably guilty.

Shen Cheng was like this, obviously compared to Annie who was just frightened, Shen Cheng's injury was more serious.

"Knock knock."

There were two knocks at the door.

Zhen Meilie walked in, the woman's beauty had not diminished even after three or fours years had passed. But compared to her former homely gentleness, she had more of a capable workplace woman's aura.

Over the years the Jian family's business had grown bigger and bigger, and Jiane's father was exhausted running around, so, she had to take up the slack and help her husband in his business.

Jian Shiwu: "Mom."

Zhen Mei was still gentle when it came to her child’s situation, she sat down by Shen Cheng’s bed and asked the doctor, "How is this child’s condition?"

The doctor gave an honest account of Shen Cheng’s condition.

Before he came Ji Yuan Sheng had instructed him to keep Jian Shiwu and Zhen Meilie around no matter what, that only these two people could cure Shen Cheng, one could manage his food and the other could take care of his injuries.

Sure enough, Zhen Meilie scolded him , "How come there is no one around to take care of you when you are burning out like this, where is the ice, where is the water basin, where have they all gone?”

The doctor didn’t dare to say it was Shen Cheng who didn’t let anyone to come near, he could only say, "Yes, I’ll arrange for someone to come over."

Shen Cheng lifted his head and pursed his lips, "Auntie..."

As if she could see his resistance to outsiders, Zhen Meilie said softly, "Don't worry about it child, Auntie will be here tonight, you rest well, it will definitely be okay."

Jian Shiwu: ?

Mum, you didn’t say you had that on your itinery when we came.

Zhen Meili poured another cup of water for Shen Cheng and said, "Do you till have physical strength? Eat something, tell Auntie what you want to eat and she'll go get it for you."

When they were not around, Shen Cheng didn’t get close to anyone, but this time they were all around, and Shen Cheng becamd too good to be true, he was twelve percent better in front of his future mother-in-law. He sat up obediently and said, "I've given you a lot of trouble, I'm fine, don't worry, it's just a small injury, it's late in the day, you've been tired all day, get some rest. "

This understanding look really inspired motherhood, and Zhen Meilie said, "What trouble, it’s not troublesome, you are also my son, so don’t say such insulting words."

The tears of the weak may not be that compassionate, but the rare vulnerability of the strong can make people easily moved, so now Shen Cheng didn't have to do anything to easily win everyone's attention.

Shen Cheng didn't refuse again, just whispered, "Got it, thank you auntie."

"Son, these are the noodles you cooked?" Zhen Meilie picked up the noodle bowl with some disapproval, "Just added a few greens?"

Jian Shiwu was suddenly named and he could only say: "Ah..."

Because he only knows how to make noodles with vegetables, and he's afraid he'll mess up the other types noodles, bssides, they're quick to make.

Not bothering with him, Zhen Meilie said to Shen Cheng, "Auntie will go and make you a new bowl of noodles."

"No need!” Shen Cheng, however, stopped her before she could move, his long white hand lifted to hold Zhen Meilie’s wrist, he glanced at Jian Shiwu, his eyes deep as if they could strike straight to the soul, his voice husky and magnetic, extraordinarily provocative in the night: "It's quite good, I want to eat it."

If those five-star chefs who were once despised heard those words, they would have been stimulated to tears.

Because of Zhen Meilie’s presence, the work afterwards was much smoother, and Jian Shiwu also wanted to stay and look after Shen Cheng. But he was kicked out by his own mother without hesitation: "What kind of people would you look after, you can't even take care of yourself, go to the guest room and do your homework!"

He couldn't go home so he called his class teacher, probably meaning that he had encountered something and couldn't visit Annie for the time being, so they would have to hire another person for the closing ceremony program.

The class teacher sighed a little, but didn’t say anything more.

Tomorrow was the closing ceremony of the games and it was no big deal, plus Jian Shiwu had suffered a lot of injuries in the alleyway, so the class teacher simply gave him a day off to rest at home.

Qiao An was enthused when he heard that: "Shiwu, let's play a game?"

Jian was suspicious: "Don't you have to go to school tomorrow?"

"The sports day will be the same with or without me." Qiao An put his arm around his shoulders, "Great, you don't know, Shen Cheng never plays games with me, I'm so lonely and empty!"

Jian Shiwu was also a fun-loving one, but he still wondered, "Why doesn't he play with you?"

Of course, it was because Shen Cheng thought he was too bad to play. Not worth his time.

But under Jian’s puzzled, innocent gaze, Qiao An said stiffly, "I don't know, let’s leave him alone!"

The game they were playing was an online racing game, and the competition was all about how far the car went and how high the score was, with many thrilling levels and competition from players of the same game.

A few games down the line, Jain had more or less figured out the rules.

Qiao An exclaimed, "You're so good, you almost got first place a few times."

Jian Shiwu giggled and playfully said: "It was just a fluke, you were even better, you came first twice."

"That's not true, you don't even know who I am." Qiao An's whole mind drifted away, he said, "I'm famous on the list, look, I'm in 10th place.”

Jane went over and saw an ID called: Lonely bird, ranked 10th.

Qiao An took Jian Shiwu and restarted a new game, this time both were overtaken, just close to winning the game. Qiao An slammed the table in anger, "If the other side didn’t have the ‘baby gain bonus’, we’d definitely have been able to win."

Jian Shiwu was the Buddhist, biting into his apple and meekly asking, "Was it that little baby they were standing next to?"

Qiao An was indignant: "Yeah, it’s just the young couple bullying us for not having a baby, if I could have one too it would still be their turn."

There was a sudden silence in the room for a moment.

Jian Showu was still nibbling on his apple, and when he saw that he had stopped talking about it, he turned his face curiously to look, long eyelashes blinking, as if silently asking why Qiao An had stopped talking.

Qiao An stroked his chin and came over, full of encouragement, "Let's have a baby?"

"Pfft! Ahem..." he almost swallowed a mouthful of apple, his cheeks flushed, and he took a moment to look at him with watery eyes, "What?"

Qiao An smoothed his breath and hurriedly explained, "I mean the game, the game players can have a baby when they form a partnership, and this baby has a bonus, so we’d invincible!"

Jian Shiwu was a bit confused: "It can still be like that oh."

Qiao An nodded, "Yeah, yeah, but we're all male characters."

Jian was dumbfounded, "Is that even possible?"

Qiao An smiled, "Of course it's fine, what age is this? Same-sex marriages have been legal for a long time now, so of course the game has been keeping up with the times!"

Jian shiwu thought about it, it didn't seem to matter if they cooperated and gained a buff baby, and anyway, it was only a couple of days of playing the game, so he nodded, "Okay then."

Qiao An cheered a little.

Curious, Jian Shiwu asked, "How do we get married?"

"We have to brush up on our intimacy first." Qiao An taught him, "And then we have to prepare the ring ah and all that, you don't have to worry about it, I’ll do all that, I'll give you an appointment letter later."

Jian Shiwu’ mind was in a fog as he listened, he didn’t think a game could be made so complicated, at first he was shy about the appointment letter or something, but the good thing is that only the two of them know, the baby was just for the game so, it should not any big problem right.

He completely forgot that his account is logged in by Penguin, a big part of those on the leaderboard are his Penguin friends, to top it off, his own updates would be shared for his friends to see.

In just one night, all their classmates knew one thing, that Jian Shiwu and the transfer student got together.
