04 - Qi Ling, I listen to you

Jiang Suwen came quickly. He felt this inexplicable embarrassment when he came in. In order to alleviate the embarrassment, he let Ding Cheng go out.

But Qi Ling frowned. Although it was not obvious, Jiang Suwen could feel that Qi Ling was different towards Ding Cheng. Of course, Qi Ling doesn’t feel much about this difference.

After a checkup, Jiang Suwen and Ding Cheng talked for a long time. It probably meant that Qi Ling was awake, but he had sequelae. It was estimated that he would have to sit in a wheelchair for a period of time. As for the length of time, Jiang Suwen didn’t give it to him, saying he wanted to follow up with Qi Ling later.

After listening, Ding Cheng was silent for a while, and he looked at Jiang Suwen, “Don’t announce this news to the public for the time being. I will see what they are going to do at the Qi family.”

In fact, this was Qi Ling’s plan in the beginning. More accurately, waking up now is purely because Qi Ling does not want Ding Cheng to worry so much. As for the leg injury, it is to pave the way for the follow-up plan, so he can only hide it from Ding Cheng.

“I’ll talk about it with Qi Ling” Ding Cheng said as he stood up, nodded to Jiang Suwen, and left his department and returned to Qi Ling’s ward.

Qi Ling didn’t fall asleep, his gaze gave Ding Cheng an illusion that he was waiting for him to come back. The corner of Ding Cheng’s mouth was raised slightly, and he gave Qi Ling a long-lost and quite charming smile. He was truly happy.

“Qi Ling, you still…recognize me, I am…”

“Ding Cheng,” before Ding Cheng had finished speaking, Qi Ling said his name first. Ding Cheng’s name is in his memory. In fact, it is not that there is no sense of existence, but once he also felt that he led separate lives with Ding Cheng.

“Yeah,” Ding Cheng nodded, then blinked quietly, blinking away the sudden sour and sweet taste, he sat down again, his sight was level with the half-lying Qi Ling. Ding Cheng’s face was flushed red again.

Ding Cheng is especially prone to blushing when facing Qi Ling. Qi Ling knows this. But before, he and even many other people thought that Ding Cheng was afraid of him. He was so nervous that he blushed. After listening to his confession, Qi Ling could no longer feel that way.

Ding Cheng’s blushing is just shyness, when facing the shyness of the person he likes, it is not fear, but uncontrollable like.

"

"

“Doctor Jiang said, it will take a while for your legs to heal.” Ding Cheng looked away slightly and looked at Qi Ling’s legs. There was not much worry on his face. He believed that Qi Ling would wake up. And also firmly believed that he could fully recover.

“As for the matter of your waking up, I will let Dr. Jiang and He Li keep the secret, and we will announce it when it is appropriate.”

It can be said that Ding Cheng knows Qi Ling’s temperament quite well. And Qi Ling, who he knows, will never think about that when he was sick and weak, Ding Cheng confessed. Seeing Qi Ling nod, Ding Cheng continued to speak, but his voice was quite brisk.

“In addition, Dr. Jiang said that I can be with you all day.”

This is absolutely good news for Ding Cheng. He is not so worried now, but that is for while he looks at Qi Ling. As soon as he walks out of the ward, other than visiting for several hours a day, other times are torment for him.

As he thought of something, he tapped his fingertips on his lips. He lowered his voice and said, “I will try my best to keep quiet. Tell me if you need something.”

Qi Ling’s eyes fell on Ding Cheng’s fingertips on his lips, he couldn’t help but think of the kiss that was too strange in his mind. His eyes turned slightly away, “It’s okay, you can say what you want to say.”

“Oh, oh…” Ding Cheng responded, but though before he was able to talk non-stop, he didn’t know what he could say now. What does he want to say… He wants to tell Qi Ling that he likes him, but it doesn’t seem to be a good time now.

His hand unconsciously scratched on the white mattress of the hospital bed, he looked at Qi Ling’s eyes, “I will tell you about my time abroad, I also told you before, but you should not have heard too clearly. ”

Qi Ling nodded, “Okay.”

He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but there was still some regret that could not be mistaken.

On this day, Ding Cheng was telling Qi Ling about his experience abroad, which was both thrilling and moving. It was Ding Cheng’s growth that Qi Ling had missed. He listened carefully, and his eyes that were always too cold, were now soft.

“Ding Cheng…”

“Huh?” Ding Cheng took a small spoon and carefully fed Qi Ling water, his eyes raised slightly, against the oblique sunset, gentle but persistent, very amazing. This is Ding Cheng, Ding Cheng who will not change if he is determined.

“Do what you want, you can do it.”

After Qi Ling said this, he turned his head slightly and drank the water in the spoon.

However, Ding Cheng blushed again because of Qi Ling’s words, and even his hand holding the spoon trembled slightly. His eyes lowered and raised again, he and Qi Ling looked at each other, the blushing reached his ears .

But this time Ding Cheng did not turn his gaze away anymore. He and Qi Ling looked at each other, and the heat in his eyes was visible. He said softly, “Qi Ling, I listen to you.”

Jiang Suwen once again felt that his timing was awful. The pink bubbles in the ward could blind him.

“Ah, you should take medicine. Besides, does my sister-in-law need me to let the nurse put another bed here?”

The sky was already completely dark, and Ding Cheng was about to stay with him for the night. Qi Ling was still sick, and they weren’t suitable to sleep in the same bed. The key here is that this is the hospital, which is even more inappropriate.

“No, he will come back tomorrow morning.” Qi Ling first opened his mouth to help Ding Cheng. He finished talking with Jiang Suwen, and looked at Ding Cheng’s tone a little softer. “You need a good rest. Go back first.”

Ding Cheng was silent for a while. Before he got up, he grabbed Qi Ling’s hand and lowered his tone, “Then I will wait until you fall asleep before leaving, okay?”

Jiang Suwen also looked at Qi Ling, wondering how Qi Ling would continue to refuse. Awkwardly, he nodded after he hesitated for a while, “Then stay, if you can’t sleep well, you must go back to sleep tomorrow.”

“Well,” Ding Cheng raised his eyes, his happiness couldn’t be hidden at all. He pursed his lips and smiled at Qi Ling. This completely unexpected indulgence made Ding Cheng surprised and delighted.

Jiang Suwen couldn’t help shaking his head in his heart. Both of them were very strange, but one thing was clear. They didn’t need him to mix things up, just let the flow go.

After Qi Ling took the medicine, He Li brought in dinner. The food he brought was very rich. Both Qi Ling and Ding Cheng ate a lot. After dinner, Qi Ling turned on the computer and checked some information. Ding Cheng was sitting on the sofa and was also reading some emails.

Before, when he went to the tropical island, he took a set of underwater photos. It was quite difficult. From the photos sent in the email, his hard work was not in vain. He read it carefully and made some comments. By the way, he asked Luke Burr not to forget about his reward.

He is now the breadwinner, and he can’t continue to use money as before.

Ding Cheng only gave Qi Ling one hour to work. When the time came, he closed the computer and set it aside without waiting for Ding Cheng to remind him.

Ding Cheng raised his eyes, collided with Qi Ling’s gaze, and the deer on his chest rejoiced again, “That’s right, you should take a good rest now. Nothing else is more important than your health.”

Ding Cheng tried to make himself speak. His voice was more serious, but his moist eyes still exposed everything. He lowered his eyes to look at the photos on the computer, remembering that he had told Qi Ling about his trip on the island today, and he picked up his computer and walked to Qi Ling.

“Look, this is the photo that Burr sent me. It’s just a sample. It will be better after repair.”

Ding Cheng, who is in trousers and white shirt, stretches his limbs under the clear blue water, and seems to be sleeping. Behind him was a giant shark, far larger than Ding Cheng, but it was not like a killer, more like Ding Cheng’s guardian.

“Well, it looks good.” Qi Ling looked at the photo, his eyes slanted slightly, and he saw Ding Cheng blushing. He probably really likes him, because it is a certain fact that he was really happy.

Ding Cheng continued to stare at the photo for a while before turning his head to look at Qi Ling. He saw his bright profile face. His heartbeat was out of control again, but he did not approach as he wanted, but moved away slightly, otherwise he really wouldn’t know what he would do to Qi Ling.

Kiss? Embrace? Ding Cheng raised his hand and pressed it on his chest, and then looked away casually, but the feeling of dry mouth still exulted, “I’m going to drink some water, would you like some?”

“Well,” Qi Ling replied in a low voice. His eyes moved away from the photo on the computer, and fell on Ding Cheng, whose ears were red. The corners of his mouth slightly curled up, revealing his first smile since he woke up from rebirth.

Ding Cheng, who was flashed by Qi Ling’s smile again, pours two glasses of water to one side, and then he pours another glass for Qi Ling, and then moves back. He is really useless, why does his heart meet Qi Ling? I can’t live up to this point.

But… his Qi Ling is really handsome with a smile!

Ding Cheng was fascinated by Qi Ling. Qi Ling also understood what is cute. In his eyes, Ding Cheng is cute. The innocence of Ding Cheng was something he had never expected for half a lifetime.

But the fact is that he once had it or should have had it, but he didn’t know it.

“Qi Ling, do you hate me?” Ding Cheng didn’t dare to ask Qi Ling if he liked him, but dared to ask him if he hated him.

“No,” Qi Ling gave the answer without hesitation. He has never hated Ding Cheng. He has never been married expecting to divorce. But for the question Ding Cheng really wanted to ask, he could not answer him temporarily.

“Well,” Ding Cheng nodded, his long eyelashes trembling slightly, he put aside the water cup, got up to the bathroom next to the ward and brought hot water and towels, and he carefully wiped Qi Ling’s face, neck, and hands.

“Don’t refuse, I’m very happy to do this for you.”

Ding Cheng put the towel in the basin, patted Qi Ling’s shoulder with his hand, his eyes moved up unconsciously, and fell to Qi Ling. With his head still wrapped, his tone was more solemn than before.

“Qi Ling, you will be well,” it doesn’t matter if he gets better or not, he can raise Qi Ling for a lifetime.

But he didn’t dare to tell Qi Ling the latter sentence. He was afraid to scare him. Right now he and Qi Ling are making good progress. He can’t let his enthusiasm scare people away, otherwise will die of regret.

“Okay,” Qi Ling responded softly as he heard that sentence from Ding Cheng.

Ding Cheng blinked his eyes, the heartbeat in his chest “bang bang bang” endlessly, his hand moved away from Qi Ling’s shoulder, but he was reluctant to stop touching Qi Ling like this. He stared at Qi Ling’s hand and after taking a deep breath, he gently grasped it.

“It’s a bit cold, it’s better to put it in the quilt.”

So he didn’t deliberately want to take advantage of Qi Ling, but for his own good, so he held his hand and put it back in the quilt.
