Chapter 151 Circling Around

It was obviously too late for Jian Chi to take back his previous doubts about Ji Huaisi.

The sound insulation of the single ward was better than that of the ordinary wards. In the early hours of the morning, no one except the doctors and nurses would pass by, but as long as he thought of the current environment and what Ji Huaisi was doing with him at the moment, he couldn’t stop his beating heart. Biting his lip, he didn’t dare to make any sound.

At this time, Ji Huaisi was subtly different from usual. Every step was gentle and gradual, giving Jian Chi enough time to feel the throbbing that spread from the body to the bottom of his heart, pulling out the clear and trembling senses. As if the bowstring was swiping across the strings, the sound lingering with every vibration.

Jian Chi gradually couldn’t tell whether the sudden sometimes fierceness was Ji Huaisi deliberately breaking the ambiguous and forbearing silence, or whether he was just being careless. Finally, he couldn’t hold back a few very low notes. In a trance, he could feel Ji Huaisi’s breath and the wet and hot kiss in his ear.

Ten fingers clasped tightly, not loosening all night.

When he woke up, the window reflected the white snow, and the sky returned to the tranquility before the snow.

Jian Chi nestled in Ji Huaisi’s arms, too warm to wake up, but his first reaction was to get up a little from Ji Huaisi’s arms, for fear of accidentally pressing on an unhealed wound somewhere on his body. The movement woke Ji Huaisi. Jian Chi felt the arm around his waist wrap him in his arms, Ji Huaisi’s voice just woken up had a hoarseness and a smile that didn’t disappear: “You’re still worried about my body?”

When the fact was spoken from the other party’s mouth in another tone, Jian Chi’s earlobes were hot, his drowsiness was completely dispelled, and after a long while, he said, “I wanted to get up just now.”

The always self-disciplined Ji Huaisi glanced at the clock that passed nine o’clock by the head of the bed, continued to lie down, and tightened the hand that hugged Jian Chi, “This early?”

“…Is it very early?”

He found his clothes by the bedside, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and was ‘attacked’ by Ji Huaisi unprepared while doing these things. After a few more minutes of delay, Jian Chi turned on the cell phone that had been turned off overnight. .

A dozen messages popped up.

Jian Chi usually kept his mobile phone on, and only switched it off before going to bed. Last night, he had no time to do so, so the phone suddenly rang in the middle, and Jian Chi’s already tense nerves were almost disconnected. Without waiting for him to react, Ji Huaisi did something to the phone and the repetition of the exciting and stimulating actions made him forget this episode in an instant.

According to the time, at the top were the seventeen messages sent by Shao Hang. Jian Chengchao asked if he was at a classmate’s house, and he sent a message “Have fun” not long after the previous one. It seemed that someone committed perjury on behalf of Jian Chi. With an inexplicable guilty conscience, Jian Chi clicked on Shao Hang’s avatar. An hour after he arrived at Ji Huaisi’s, Shao Hang began to ask him when he would come back, but at that time Jian Chi was immersed in Ji Huaisi’s sound of the violin, so the sound of the message was not heard at all.

The questioning continued until late last night, and the last message stopped at twelve o’clock in the evening. Jian Chi couldn’t remember clearly, but it seemed that this was when he heard the sound ringing. Shao Hang had called but was hung up by Ji Huaisi.

It can also be seen from the interface that he had sent a message that had been withdrawn. Of course, this can only be sent by Ji Huaisi using his mobile phone. After this, Shao Hang no longer sent any messages.

Jian Chi didn’t know what was said in the retracted text message. Asking Ji Huaisi obviously wouldn’t work, but asking Shao Hang would make it easier to step on thunder. Jian Chi chose to ignore it for the time being, and got up and changed his clothes. If he stayed here again, he would not know what to say when he met the doctor who came round the room.

After all, he and Ji Huaisi were not very clear.

“Are you going back?”

“En, my dad thought I was playing at a friend’s house. He would think it would be weird if I went back too late.” Except this time, Jian Chi had never stayed out of the house without telling Jian Chengchao. Now he had to start thinking about which friend to use besides Shao Hang and Wen Chuan. It’s not impossible to introduce Ji Huaisi to Jian Chengchao… But Jian Chi felt that Shao Hang would definitely be listening and making trouble.

Ji Huaisi curved his eyes and smiled gently and harmlessly, “Did you have a good time last night?”

Jian Chi was stuck for a while. Every time he saw Ji Huaisi speak words that make people blush and skip a heartbeat with this gentle face without pressure, the image of Ji Huaisi in his heart changed again and again. Perhaps because of what he had said before, Ji Huaisi was now gradually letting go of the perfect shell that he had created in the first place. In order to prevent Ji Huaisi from shrinking back into the shell, Jian Chi could only answer erratically: “…It’s ok.”

“Just ok?” Ji Huaisi said, “Then I still have room for improvement.”

“Ji Huaisi,” Jian Chi gritted his teeth, “If you continue, I won’t come to see you tomorrow.”

This threat was finally more effective than the previous words. Ji Huaisi motioned for Jian Chi to come closer. Jian Chi stepped back again, lowered his head to listen to what Ji Huaisi was about to say, when a gentle kiss was printed on his cheek, a soft touch. The faint scent of shower gel was the same as on his body, as if it was integrated into one.

“See you tomorrow, Jian Chi.”

Ji Huaisi looked into his eyes and said in a low voice, “Every tomorrow in the future, I will see you again.”

Jian Chi hesitated for a few seconds then smiled lightly.

“Okay.”

The HSST results were sent by email at 8:00 in the morning three days later, and Jian Chi remembered it all due to being woken up by Zhang Yang’s phone early in the morning.

“Jian Chi, have you seen the grades?” Zhang Yang yelled at the other end, “82.7! I’ve exceeded my goal, I finally don’t have to apply for the worst major! Jian Chi, I haven’t been able to sleep since last night, tossing and turning until the early morning. I just closed my eyes, set ten alarm clocks and waited to read my emails, my dad just asked me what I was howling about, he could hear the sound from upstairs…”

“What are you howling for?”

Shao Hang got up, an angry and displeased voice came from behind Jian Chi, making Zhang Yang in the excitement shocked and mutter: “Jian Chi, am I hallucinating due to excitement? I heard Shao Hang’s voice, how could he have the nerves to steal my Dad’s lines?”

Jian Chi held back his smile, “I think I heard it too.”

There was a sneer from Shao Hang on the other end of the phone, and Zhang Yang could hear it clearly now. It was estimated that the amount of information was too much and all were piled together, so he couldn’t say a word for a long time. Jian Chi dismissed the siege thoughtfully, “I’ll check my mailbox too… ah.”

A sudden voice made Zhang Yang and Shao Hang nervously ask ‘what’s the matter’ at the same time. Jian Chi just wanted to express his shock, he replied: “99.2.”

He thought it would only be 98 at most.

Zhang Yang howled again after a brief silence. Jian Chi heard the sound of someone opening the door for him to stop. It was estimated that it was Zhang Yang’s mother. Zhang Yang finished incoherently talking about karma which turned into two people screaming together. Jian Chi placed the phone further away a little bit, wondering if Zhang Yang would forget the phone call for a while. Shao Hang felt it so noisy that he couldn’t sleep. He turned over, hugged Jian Chi and buried in his shoulder for a while, and whispered in a low voice, “My wife is amazing.”

“…You’re not awake yet?”

Shao Hang in the morning like dto hum and chirp very much, and Jian Chi ignored it as sleep talk, but this morning was a little different. For the time being, Jian Chi forgave the nonsense, patted Shao Hang and tried to wake him up, “You also check yours first. Email.”

Shao Hang threw the phone over directly, “Help me.”

“Aren’t you curious about your grades?”

“Nothing to be curious about,” Shao Hang said, “It won’t be bad anyway.”

Not knowing whether Shao Hang was confident or simple-minded, after finding the sign of the mailbox and clicking on it, it turned out to be a decent score: 88.6. Not only was it not bad, but the numbers were also very auspicious. Jian Chi was about to congratulate Shao Hang when a message popped up, which inevitably caught his eye, and his eyelids jumped.

Old man: Prepare for the dinner party at the Bai family in a week.

Intuition told Jian Chi that the person who sent this message can only be Shao Xianhua, and no one except him can reproduce such a disgusting and airy tone.

The eye-catching four words of ‘Bai family’s dinner party’ made Jian Chi squeeze his phone unconsciously, thinking of what Ji Huaisi had told him to expect – the Bai family planned to recognize Bai Xiyu.
