Transparent Summer Love

Chapter 8 I haven't let you go yet, how dare you go (2)
"Ice. Do you have any at home?" Xia Boran smiled and repeated what he just said.

"No." Zixin shook her head, "What do you want ice cubes for?"

"Ice compress." He suddenly turned sideways and looked at her steadily. "At this time, the small clinics nearby are almost closed. Going to a big hospital for emergency treatment is better than going home and making ice compresses yourself." He patiently explained to her.

"I think it doesn't matter if you don't need to apply ice compresses. Maybe it will be fine after you wake up from sleep. In fact, it doesn't need to be so..." Xia Boran interrupted the word "trouble" before he could say it.

"Wait for me here."

"Huh? What are you going to do?" Zixin looked at him suspiciously.

"Go to the supermarket to buy ice packs." He glanced at the supermarket not far away and replied.

"Ah? Actually..."

"Wait for me here." After he finished speaking, he walked towards the supermarket over there without waiting for Zixin's reaction, without even noticing how strongly pampering his words were.

Zi Xin didn't answer, just stared blankly at his handsome back, her heart skipped a beat, her face was full of intoxicating blush from what he said just now.

10 minute later.

Xia Boran appeared in Zixin's sight again, holding two bags of ice cubes in his hand, smiling.

"I think these ice cubes should be enough for you to apply ice. When you get home at night, you should seriously apply ice compresses, you know?"

"Yes, I got it!" Zi Xin smiled sweetly, "However, for such a life-saving grace, it seems pale to just say thank you?" She stared at him intently, her eyes shining brightly.

Xia Boran smiled lightly, with a beautiful arc on the corner of his mouth: "Really? Then, if you plan to repay with a promise of body, maybe I will consider it."

"what……"

Before this moment, Zixin never imagined that someone with Xia Boran's temperament would make such a joke.Today's sun should be in the right direction.Thinking of this, she subconsciously looked up to the sky.Unfortunately, apart from a few scattered stars, nothing else can be seen.

"Fool." He said softly, looking at her with bright eyes, and there was a pampering taste in his voice.

Her heart was in a mess again...

"No matter what, I still want to say, thank you very much today." She buried her head and did not dare to look at him, "Then, then I'll go first, goodbye!"

Her back was so hasty, it seemed that if she walked a little late, the throbbing and secrets in her heart would be noticed by him.

"Hey, wait!"

Before taking a few steps, the arm was grabbed again...

Zixin raised her head - Xia Boran's domineering appearance was reflected in her eyes: "I haven't let you leave yet, how dare you leave!"

"Ah?" She was stunned on the spot, she didn't realize what "I haven't told you to leave, how dare you leave" in her mind for a moment, she could only hear the beating of her own heart.

"It's so late, why do you still dare to go alone? Don't you be afraid to meet such a hooligan again?" Xia Boran's tone was mixed with a hint of reproach.

Zi Xin shrunk her neck subconsciously, obviously still worried about the scene just now.

When she was in a daze, his leisurely voice rang in her ears: "I'll take you home, Chen Zixin."

After he finished speaking, he took her hand gently and took steady steps, the faint starlight made their shadows long and thin...

Zixin, who had just recovered from her stupor, immediately stood to his left, trying to keep up with his footsteps.

"Fool, aren't you afraid of walking alone at night?" He turned his face and asked her as he walked, with a sly smile on the corner of his mouth, but extremely gentle eyes.

"not afraid."

"Really?"

"Of course! Because I'm not alone now." She looked back at him, her tone was very serious, but her clear eyes were playful.

Her appearance at this moment was clearly reflected in his deep eyes, and his heart trembled heavily, as if bewitched by those clear eyes.

Then, he suddenly recalled the first time he saw her, such a special and wonderful feeling, recalling it now is still so clear and vivid...

The night was getting deeper and deeper.

When preparing to cross the road at an intersection, Zixin suddenly noticed Xia Boran's abnormality.

Inexplicably, he stopped abruptly, his face turned pale.

"What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?" Zixin frowned, looking extremely nervous.

Xia Boran remained silent, did not answer her words, but looked a little dazed, like a doll that has lost its vitality.

"What's wrong with you, Xia Boran?" Zi Xin shook his arm.

It took a long time for Xia Boran to recover from his stupor.

"Huh? What's the matter?" He raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a puzzled and pale face.

"What happened to you just now?" Zi Xin asked with a frown.

"It's nothing, I... just a little scared to cross the road!" He said, an unnatural blush appeared on Jun's face.

Zixin was a little surprised, she didn't expect him to have such a childish side, but she didn't show such emotion.Everyone has their own fears, and that's nothing.

She smiled, took his hand calmly, and looked at him sideways.

"In that case, won't you be afraid anymore?" She said with a smile, her eyes bent like beautiful crescents.

An inexplicable sense of stability passed from her palm to his heart bit by bit.

Xia Boran narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zi Xin——

Her smile gradually enlarged in his clear eyes.

It was an extremely reassuring smile, as warm as the brightest moonlight in the dark night...

"Keep holding my hand and don't let go." Her tone was extremely gentle, without any ironic meaning in her words. Her hand was so small and soft, and the two of them were so close, next to her ear There was the sound of his even breathing, and she gently held his hand like this, walking across the zebra crossing at the intersection...

Only after walking to the other side of the road did Zixin gently let go of his hand.The warm feeling suddenly disappeared from the palm of his hand, and Xia Boran felt a faint sense of loss in his heart.

He raised his head and looked at Zi Xin, there was silence around him, only the rustling sound of the trees when the wind blew past.

"Are you afraid because you have some bad memories of crossing the road?" She still had that smiling face, pure and innocent.

"En." Xia Boran replied vaguely, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, but his eyes seemed to be avoiding something deliberately.

"Hehe, it's okay, it will get better in the future." Zi Xin stopped talking, he must have some secrets that he couldn't tell.

At this time, the night was getting deeper and deeper.

At this time, there were no buses, and there were not even a few taxis.

This situation is really a bit of a headache.

The two walked slowly on the quiet street, everything was silent, only the rhythmic footsteps could be heard echoing in their ears.

"Ah Choo..." Cold air suddenly poured into the nostrils, Zi Xin couldn't hold back, and sneezed loudly.

Xia Boran turned his head to look at her, then decisively took off his coat, and gently put it on the girl's shoulders.

The warm breath quickly spread throughout Zi Xin's body.

"Does this make you feel a little warmer?" Very gentle tone.

"En." Zi Xin nodded lightly, and cast a grateful look at the boy in front of her, "Thank you, Xia Boran."

Xia Boran.

The three words that jump on the tip of the tongue are the most pleasant names.

Boom—a flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky.Immediately afterwards, thunder resounded through the sky.

In the blink of an eye, heavy rain poured down.Both Zixin and Xia Boran were dumbfounded.

There was no sign of this heavy rain, it seemed to happen in an instant, so people were caught off guard.

In just one minute, the two of them were drenched and turned into drowned chickens, looking very embarrassed.

The raindrops fell on the street, and soon formed a small river with pits and hollows. The sound of clattering made it feel like pearls falling to the ground.There are also crystal raindrops hanging on the leaves on the roadside, emitting a different kind of light in the dark night, with a bit of a weird taste.

When they quickly ran to the door of the house, there was almost no dry place on their bodies.But despite this, the two bags of ice were still well protected by Xia Boran.

Zi Xin quickly took out the keys in the bag, opened the door, then squinted her eyes and shouted to Xia Boran beside her, "It's raining so hard, come in quickly."

"Ah?" Xia Boran's pupils dilated a little, "Is this okay?"

That look really made me dumbfounded.

"Hurry up." Zi Xin hurriedly urged, "Do you want to get seriously ill from the rain and make me feel guilty?"

The door is closed.

The torrential rain was immediately shut outside the door, and the annoying sound of splashing and clattering also disappeared together.

The surroundings fell silent in an instant.

With a "pop", Zixin turned on the chandelier in the room, and the whole room was immediately enveloped in warm light, and a clear breath came over his nostrils.

Xia Boran handed the ice bag to Zi Xin, and after letting her put it in the refrigerator, he looked around, subconsciously looking around at the house.

This is a not-so-big duplex building. The furnishings in the house seem to have not been replaced for a long time, so it looks a bit old. The wooden stairs also look very simple because of their age.

But - all this did not affect its warmth at all, the whole room looked extremely neat, the main color of blue made people feel relaxed and happy, the layout of the room was very unique, with a unique and lovely atmosphere for girls.

Xia Boran noticed that near the window, rows of Clivia were neatly arranged, and the clear breath from the tip of his nose just now should have come from there.

Just as Xia Boran was in a daze, Zi Xin's urging voice came from behind: "Go and take a bath, you were soaked by the heavy rain just now, now you have to take a bath immediately, or you will catch a cold easily." It was very cautious and serious the sound of.

"What?" Xia Boran couldn't react at once, and stared at Zixin in front of him with wide eyes.

The first time I came to a girl's house as a guest, I took a bath here...

It sounds like a very strange thing.

"Take a shower. Why do you look like that?"

"Uh, this, don't you need it?" Xia Boran said in a very unnatural tone.

"So you're trying to make yourself sick and make me feel guilty?"

"Of course not." Xia Boran waved his hand.

"then you……"

"You got wet just now, so you should go take a shower first." Xia Boran interrupted Zi Xin, "Also, you have to take a shower quickly, and then apply ice to your face, otherwise you will be in bed tomorrow." Don't even think about seeing people."

"Huh?" Zi Xin frowned and looked at him.

"In addition, to prevent colds, of course we should start with the weak." Xia Boran said solemnly.

Zi Xin opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Looking at Xia Boran's sly smile, I felt both helpless and sweet in my heart, and my face seemed to be less painful.

Really... lost to him.

When the hour hand on the wall pointed to 12:30, Zi Xin had finished applying ice compresses to her face, and sat on the sofa waiting for a full 20 minutes.

She was wearing a set of cute bear pajamas at the moment, her delicate eyebrows were slightly frowned, and there was a trace of anxiety on her slightly red and swollen face.

When Xia Boran came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, Zixin stood up and stared at him blankly, without saying a word for a while, with a strange expression on his face.

At this moment, Xia Boran was wearing a suit of clothes that didn't look so well-fitting.The clothes are a bit short, and against his slender figure, it looks a little funny.

But his figure is really good, with broad shoulders and a standard inverted triangle perfect figure.

"I'm really sorry, I don't have any suitable clothes for you at home, this one is left by my father." Zi Xin's voice sounded somewhat apologetic.

"Perhaps..." He paused, and the corners of his eyes slightly raised, "You should feel sorry if you have the right clothes, right?" Xia Boran looked at her, his eyes full of slyness.

Zi Xin was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood the meaning of his words, a blush flew over her cheeks immediately, her face flushed, and she had an indescribable beauty.

The corner of Xia Boran's mouth curled into a wicked smile, she is really a shy person.

"Is your face iced yet?" he asked, noticing her still swollen cheeks.

"Yeah." Zixin nodded.

"It still seems a little swollen, let me do it for you again."

"Ah..." Zixin's heartbeat began to be abnormal again, and her head was also blank.

When she regained her consciousness, Xia Boran had pulled her to sit on the sofa, and he was already applying ice to her face.

Wow, it's really comfortable.

Zi Xin cast her eyes upwards, and pursed her lips slightly.

How could he be so good at icing, which usually only girls are good at?It's so unreasonable!Will you give her a way out!She lamented inwardly.

"How is it? Are you comfortable?" Xia Boran's pleasant voice sounded from above his head.

"Yeah." Because it was inconvenient to nod, Zixin just hummed lightly.

"I'm telling you, I'm a master at making ice compresses. I guarantee that when you get up tomorrow morning, your cheeks will immediately return to normal."

"Thank you!" Zi Xin thanked politely, then said after a pause, "You didn't learn this skill because you were often injured in fights when you were young, did you?" There was an obvious hint of joking in his tone.

"Chen Zixin, you have a very rich imagination!" Xia Boran said while raising a doting smile, and the movements of applying ice to his hands did not stop.

"Really? Thank you for the compliment!"

Afterwards, both of them laughed out loud, as if they were lovers.

Apart from their conversation and laughter in the room, only the chandelier above their heads was shining brightly.

The room is warm.
