No one understands rebirth better than me

Chapter 55 Not Myself

"Xiaobei..."

"..."

"Xiaobei, get up and take your medicine..."

"?"

I don’t know how long I sweated wrapped in the quilt, but when Luo Xiaobei got up, Guan Ren was sitting beside the pillow with a bowl of brown medicine, looking very kind.

"You... poisonous husband..."

"..."

Seeing Luo Xiaobei covering her chest with a sad expression, Guan Ren's mouth twitched.

But this is also a good thing.

Qingmei started acting as soon as she woke up, which at least meant that her fever should have subsided.

"Where did you get the medicine?"

"I see a few packets of Isatis root in the cupboard. Your throat is a little sore, why not try some?"

Luo Xiaobei drank it all in one gulp.

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Not long, maybe three hours."

"what?"

"Are you feeling better now?"

Guan Ren smiled:

"Come, let me touch it."

"don't want…"

Luo Xiaobei's face secretly turned red, trying to hide her illness.

Even Guan Ren, as a reserved girl, still showed a vigilant look and instinctively covered her chest with the quilt:
"abnormal…"

"..."

Guan Ren didn't bother to pay attention to her. He raised his hand and touched her forehead:
"Well, it's indeed gone. Do you still feel uncomfortable?"

"Have."

Luo Xiaobei shook his arms like a little penguin flapping its wings:

"I still have no strength in my body, and I feel a little sore."

"That's probably because he's hungry."

Guan Ren looked at the time and it was already noon.

"I'll make something to eat. What do you want?"

"Big elbow smash~"

"No."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Nothing."

Guan Ren decided to look in the refrigerator and use the ingredients available there.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute..."

Just as he was about to leave, a white leg popped out from the quilt, blocking Guan Ren's way. The slender little feet were just resting on Guan Ren's waist, swinging back and forth.

Strictly speaking, it should be a little lower than the waist.

"..."

The girl's five round toes moved back and forth, dangling just below Guan Ren's waist, each one cuter than the other like candies, and Guan Ren couldn't help but move his throat when he saw them.

"Will you pick me up first?"

"What are you doing up?"

"I've been sweating, so I need to change all my sheets, quilts, and clothes..."

"I'll take care of those things, you just rest peacefully."

But Luo Xiaobei didn't want to rest.

At least one person doesn't want to rest when he is alone in the room.

So when Guan Ren started the fire in the kitchen and returned to Luo Xiaobei's bedroom, he saw that she had changed into a thin gray sweatshirt and was sitting in front of the computer.

"Just do it, little aunt."

Guan Ren looked at his forehead straight:
"Luo Xiaobei, don't tell me you still want to play games."

I don't want to play games.

I do want to play games with him.

Unfortunately, he couldn't have sex on the bed, and Luo Xiaobei didn't want to waste the last two days of National Day when his parents were away, so he wanted to find some movies to watch.

"what!"

"What are you doing? Why are you so startled?"

"Guan Ren, why are you so small?"

"?"

Guan Ren was inexplicably dissatisfied after hearing this:

"What do you mean small? Why is it small?"

"Level."

Luo Xiaobei pointed at the QQ on the computer:

"I just realized that you only have three moons, and I have two suns!"

"Oh, who cares about that now..."

"Eh?"

Luo Xiaobei was very surprised:

"Didn't you spend your elementary and middle school years using that software every day just to cheat at your grades?"

Guan Ren curled his lips:
"So that was in elementary and middle school. Now I just go with the flow."

"Tsk...giving up again...humph...scumbag..."

"What?"

"Nothing."

Guan Ren only saw Luo Xiaobei quickly take something out of the drawer, grab a pen to draw something, and then put it back.

"Then your current level should at least have one sun."

Otherwise, wouldn't he and her be further apart?

"I'll help you hang it up."

"casual."

Guan Ren went to the kitchen to check the pot, adjusted the heat and came back.

"Why did you change your QQ password?"

"I logged in at an internet cafe that day, and I was worried about viruses or hacking, so I changed it a bit."

"Oh, what's the new password?"

“ggjjzhzz1314”

“gg…jj…”

Luo Xiaobei pressed the keys on the keyboard, feeling somewhat dissatisfied in his heart.

What a pighead...

I don't know if I should change it to something more different...

Isn't this just the old code of "Guan Guan Ju Jiu" and "Zai He Zhi Zhou" just swapped positions? What's the difference?
Of course, unless... unless he couldn't bear to give up this password, then we can forgive his stupidity...

Luo Xiaobei thought sweetly, and then he smelled an equally sweet scent.

"Wow, what did you cook?"

"Red Dates and Lotus Seed Porridge."

Guan Ren held a bowl in each hand and brought the hot food from the kitchen to the desk in the bedroom.

Luo Xiaobei had a small bowl and Guan Ren had a big bowl.

"It's made in a pressure cooker, so just bear with it. Be careful with the burns."

"call--"

Luo Xiaobei blew on it, not caring how hot it was, and then was surprised at Zhu Ma's cooking skills:

"Guan Ren, when did you become so good at cooking?"

"As for that..."

Guan Ren didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Just throw this thing into the pot and it's over. All you need is your hands."

“It’s really better than what my mom makes.”

Guan Ren not only made porridge, but also steamed eggs and added some meat sauce.

"Try it. A little oil and gas will help with recovery."

Luo Xiaobei took another bite.

Guan Ren’s eggs are indeed delicious.

Luo Xiaobei's eyes were full of stars as he ate so much, and by the end, the stars were about to turn into hearts.

"Don't you want to watch a movie? Where's the movie?"

"I don't know how to get off."

The two of them chatted while eating.

I don’t know why, but many girls can’t help but shake their calves when they eat something delicious.

Luo Xiaobei did the same, sitting on a slightly higher chair, swinging his calves and kicking his little slippers gently.

"Then how did you get off before?"

"I haven't downloaded it in a long time. The last time was when I was in junior high school. Back then, I used a USB drive to go to the store to download it."

"In the store..."

Guan Ren took a bite of the red date, looked up at the ceiling, and had some impression of it.

At that time, many digital stores did have a service for downloading songs and movies.

5 movies, 20 songs, etc. for 5 yuan.

After all, not many families had computers at that time, and even if they did, even fewer would find resources to download them.

It wasn't just that time, even now in 2011 there are still many such cases.

"I'll come down later. What do you want to see?"

"Lost on Journey," a movie from last year, I heard it was pretty good."

Drop drop drop-

As soon as Luo Xiaobei finished speaking, the voice of QQ came from the pink headphones.

She turned her head and took a look. On the lower right corner of Guan Ren’s QQ, there was a pear-shaped avatar flashing.

"what happened?"

"No...nothing."

Luo Xiaobei didn't know why his heart suddenly sank, nor did he know why he said "nothing" the first time, and he didn't know why he suddenly forced a smile and handed the small bowl in his hand to him:
"Could you please serve me some more~?"

"You're eating so much today."

Being able to eat well means that the body is craving energy and is a sign of recovery.

Guan Ren took the bowl and left.

Luo Xiaobei clicked on the flashing avatar.

[Xiao Li: Guan Ren, are you free today? ]

"..."

Luo Xiaobei stared at the chat box blankly, his eyes flickered hesitantly, and then he typed a few words as if possessed by a ghost.

[Guan Guan Ju Jiu: Not Me]

A few seconds later.

Xiaoli: Okay, sorry.

After a while, Guan Ren came back.

"Here."

“3q~”

Luo Xiaobei continued to eat silently for a while, occasionally glancing at his childhood sweetheart's face, then at the computer.

"Hey…"

"Ok?"

"Your QQ...someone just contacted..."

"is it?"

"Well, I replied for you."

"Oh, let me see..."

Guan Ren opened QQ and started looking.

"Who?"

Luo Xiaobei asked knowingly.

"Gu Youli."

Guan Ren replied honestly.

Then Luo Xiaobei felt that his heavy mood had improved a lot.

……

That's how it works sometimes.

Even if it's just a simple answer from a boy, even if it's just because he told the truth, it's enough to make a girl feel secretly comfortable for a long time.

……

"What does she want you to do?"

"I don't know. She asked me if I was free. I said you were sick and I was taking care of you. She said we could talk about it another day."

----------

On the other side, in the teachers’ quarters.

[Guan Guan Jujiu: I was playing at Luo Xiaobei's house, and she got sick. I'm taking care of her right now.]

Looking at the words on the screen, Gu Youli gently pressed her hand against her chest, a look of confusion on her pretty face.

Because for the first time she had a strange feeling.

I feel a strange feeling of tightness somewhere between my heart and throat...

It's not serious.

But it is there vaguely.

He was at her house...

He's taking care of her...

On QQ, these two messages from her deskmate floated in Gu Youli's mind in a somewhat confusing manner.

Doesn't he... have a girl he likes?

Why would I take care of another girl at her home...

Two equally confusing questions were also floating in Gu Youli's mind.

However, as she floated, Gu Youli shook her head and came to her senses.

Yes…

Guan Ren and Luo Xiaobei are childhood sweethearts.

And it's the kind of feeling that continues to this day.

So it was reasonable for him to take care of her when she was sick. There was nothing strange about it. Yes, that's right.

After considering this, Gu Youli felt instantly relieved.

I didn't realize such a simple truth at first... I guess I was confused...

She rubbed her hot forehead, looked down at the thick notebook she had just closed in her arms, and put it in her schoolbag for the time being.

I'd better wait until after National Day, when he's finished taking care of his childhood sweetheart, and then find a chance to give it to him...

squeak-

"Youli? What are you doing? You have such a high fever, aren't you supposed to rest well?"

"Sister, I'm fine... I just couldn't sleep. I just got up and wrote the last bit... I've finished it..."

“You…tsk!”

Gu Wancheng, who came in from outside, didn't know what to say.

Did I really put too much pressure on her?

But if it was Chinese, Gu Wancheng was already careful not to put pressure on her.

But she didn't know why, she was busy taking physics notes throughout the National Day holiday.

I don't know why my sister became so interested in physics after her monthly exam, even though her test scores were pretty good...
