Chapter 90 Contagion
Lin Mi opened the paper package and took the small pills with warm water. He pretended to be reading, deliberately avoiding her gentle gaze.However, caring is difficult to hide, and it will always be revealed in the details.She knew that he must have taken a lot of trouble when he sneaked in to buy medicine.

She sat on the chair, wanting to stay a little longer and accompany him silently.Seeing her coughing again, he was about to ask her if she needed to take leave to go back to rest, when there were soft footsteps outside the door.

They both looked up at the door at the same time, and Cheng Qianqian came in with her bag.

"Aren't you going to the cafeteria to eat? If I had known, I would have brought you food along the way."

She looked at Lin Mi who was sitting there, and recognized that it was the student who came to her dormitory to ask questions not long ago, and asked casually: "Student, is the difficulty of the Chinese test paper I gave this time okay? The five dictation papers are all learned."

After hearing this, Lin Mi was too nervous to make a sound.It’s been a long time since she flipped through her textbooks. The short ancient poems are okay, but for those long classical Chinese essays, especially Han Fu, Ming and Qing prose, she can’t even remember the author’s name, character, number, birth and death year, let alone recite the full text. up.

Zhang Xiaofa put down the book in his hand, and stood up to help her out: "Qianqian, she didn't take the exam, and she applied for a postponement due to family problems."

Cheng Qianqian walked up to Lin Mi with a smile, and lightly patted her on the shoulder: "Oh, it turns out that you missed the exam. I said that the number of test papers in the class is one less. Remember to study hard, and those who postpone the exam The content will be a little more difficult.”

She didn't dare to look up, clutched the medicine bag tightly in her hand, said "Thank you" in a low voice, and left the office.

Zhang Xiaofa watched her leave with pity in his heart.He grabbed the glass she drank from and drank the rest in one gulp.

Cheng Qianqian whispered in his ears a lot of things like eating on time and paying attention to rest. His mind was dizzy and he didn't remember a single word.

In the afternoon, he was going to give an art class to the first grade. There were four whole classes. He didn't have time to see if she was relieved after taking the medicine, so he could only worry about it in his heart.

After finally surviving school, he returned to the office with a large stack of students' homework, and suddenly felt a little sore in his body.The window was not closed, a gust of cool wind blew in, his throat was inexplicably itchy, and his chest was getting more and more stuffy. He poured a glass of water and drank it, but there was no sign of improvement at all. What was even more frightening was that coughing and sneezing all came to him. The symptoms were exactly the same as Lin Mi's.

It was only then that he realized that he also had a cold, whether he had infected her or not was not sure: last night he and Qi Jiang had been outside for a long time in the cold wind, and his body was far less solid than his brother's.

At this time, the school doctor will be off work, and it is impossible to go to get the medicine.Thinking that there was still class tomorrow and he couldn't ask for leave, he was afraid of infecting his students and colleagues, so he quickly packed his things and rode to the hospital by himself.

He originally wanted to buy medicine nearby, but he was still worried about her, so he unknowingly stepped on the car to the door of the hospital.He queued up to register in the outpatient building. After seeing the doctor, he bought medicine and masks, and it was already dark.

He came to the courtyard behind the hospital, looked up at the familiar ward under the big tree near the inpatient area.The light inside was bright, the curtains hadn't been drawn, and the door was closed.He planned to wait for a while, and when Lin Mi came out, he would ask her if she was better.

However, a strange figure appeared in front of his eyes, crawled out from the stairs like a ghost, walked against the wall, and quickly swept across the wards.At first he thought it was a thief, taking advantage of the night to steal the patient's property.Unexpectedly, when the shadow arrived at the door of Lin Yitang's ward, it suddenly stood there motionless.

Seeing the man's whole body, Zhang Xiaofa wanted to stick to the door like a gecko, as if he was trying his best to eavesdrop on the people inside.It seemed that the eavesdropper was familiar with Lin Yitang's hospitalization, and he might have been here several times before, but the patient was either lethargic or resting in bed during those few days, so he couldn't collect anything of value.

In this case, it is not suitable to alert the enemy, but it is necessary to take some countermeasures.

He turned around and looked at the doctor's office on duty. There were people in several rooms inside, planning to touch Zhang Wenxuan.

Unfortunately, the nurse said that Dr. Zhang was in the operating room and couldn't come for a while, so he borrowed paper and pen from her and wrote two notes.

The first note read "Walls have ears". He asked the nurse to help deliver it to Lin Mi, but don't say he wrote it.

The second note was for Zhang Wenxuan, telling him that someone was bugging at the door of the ward, and told him to pay attention to safety when he was in the hospital, take self-defense measures, and observe carefully from a distance before going round the ward to make sure there was no danger before going there.If it is convenient, please help to change the room.He personally brought this note to the door of the operating room, and entrusted her to hand it over when the nurse came out during the operation to explain the situation to the family.

After he finished these two tasks, he rode back to school with confidence.With the cold wind blowing in front of him, he subconsciously reached into his pocket for medicine, but found that there was nothing in his pocket except his wallet.

It turned out that when I was writing a note in the nurse's duty room, I left all the medicines and masks I bought there.He sighed: Why have you started to forget things recently?A cold is coming, and my memory is also deteriorating, maybe it's because I lack sleep...

The lights in the corridor of the dormitory turned out to be broken that night.He heard the puppy barking in the house, fearing that something might happen, he staggered towards him, but when he saw the person at the door, he couldn't hold the key firmly in his hand and fell to the ground.

Lin Mi was sitting by the door, already asleep.The bag she put on her lap contained the medicines and masks he had left in the hospital.It turned out that when the nurse came to deliver the note, she gave her what he had left behind.Although she didn't say who it belonged to, she immediately guessed that he had been here.Of course, I was deeply disturbed that I passed the cold to him.

She handed the note to her cousin, and at the same time told him that she would go back to school at night and asked Yu Fen to borrow notes to review in order to cope with the delayed exam.Lin Yitang readily agreed and asked Li Yan to drive to see her off.That's why she took the opportunity to deliver the medicine and arrived at the dormitory ahead of him.This time she did not allow Li Yan to follow, and sent her to a place far away from the school to buy some snacks.

Zhang Xiaofa picked up the key, looked at her, and at the medicine, thinking it was a hallucination caused by being tired and confused.He carefully touched her reddish cheeks, smelled the familiar fragrance, and believed that he was not dreaming.

I remember that the last time she came to the dormitory to wait for him, it was a rainy night.The two stayed in silence for a moment after meeting downstairs.Now, after a short period of ten days, when she came again, she had lost a lot of weight, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes.

The light in the corridor was very dark, and the wind in the corridor was very cold. He opened the door while supporting her.She was still asleep, leaning against his hand, her soft hair fluttering gently with the wind.

He couldn't bear to wake her up, so he instinctively picked her up by his waist, and walked into the house step by step.

He gently put her on the bed, then turned on the light, and put down the curtains.

A gust of wind blew through and the door closed, separating them from the outside world.
