Chapter 18 Owe another favor

Xie Mingchao raised his hand and glanced at his watch. There were still five minutes before get out of class ended. He was about to go back to the classroom when Zhou Chen impatiently called him: "Hey, Xie Mingchao!"

He glanced in the direction of the hospital bed, and Zhou Chen immediately fell silent.

After leaving the door of the infirmary, Xie Mingchao raised his eyes and looked at him, his voice lazily asking, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Chen glared at him angrily, and the slanted bangs covering half of his eyes swayed as his mood fluctuated, "There are no girls in your class anymore, why do you need to carry her over?"

Xie Mingchao glanced at him expressionlessly, "I am her deskmate and the closest to her." He lowered his eyes and caught a glimpse of the essay in his hand, "Your goddess's masterpiece will be ruined by you."

Zhou Chen hurriedly lowered his head to check, smoothed out the wrinkles and then raised his head again. Xie Mingchao had disappeared.

He held it up carefully, "Forget it, let's seal the goddess's composition first."

When Shen Qing woke up, she heard noisy sounds outside the window, like a faint tremor on the ground, accompanied by the sound of music that came and went.

The pain in my abdomen was gone, but I was so exhausted that I couldn't lift my hands and could only reluctantly move my head.

"woke up?"

A familiar and clear voice sounded outside the curtain. Shen Qing was startled and said tentatively: "Thank you Mingchao?"

When I spoke, my throat became extremely dry and hoarse.

There was a rustling sound of chairs moving outside, "Is it convenient to come in?"

"Can."

The curtain was opened, and Xie Mingchao stood in front of the bed with a glass of water, "Get up and drink some water."

Shen Qing tried to sit up with the strength of her elbows, but her head just raised a little and fell down weakly. She smiled awkwardly and said, "I can't seem to get up."

Xie Mingchao put the water on the table, held her arm and sat up. She unconsciously leaned against him, and then she pulled herself together and distanced herself.

Although it was not the first time he touched her, his ears turned red when he felt the softness in his palm.

I was in such a hurry to bring her to the infirmary before that I had no intention of paying attention to anything else, but now I can smell the faint fragrance of pear blossoms on her body at a close distance.

Shen Qing picked up the water and drank it without noticing anything was wrong with him, "Thank you for sending me to the infirmary."

Her voice was clearer than before. Xie Mingchao came back to his senses and looked into her clear eyes. His eyes trembled slightly and he quickly looked away.

"Um."

"Don't you need to run around?" Shen Qing asked blankly, listening to the movement outside.

Probably because of his weakness, Leng Ao's voice has softened a lot on weekdays and sounds much softer.

Xie Mingchao paused and said, "Laoban asked me to come over and take care of you."

The water glass in her hand almost came loose, "Thank you, classmate, for your condescension and freeing up precious exercise time. I'm really flattered."

He calmly sat back down and picked up the book on the stool, "You're welcome, you owe me another favor."

"Again?" The last sip of water Shen Qing had just drank was stuck in her throat. It was neither up nor down, and she almost choked. "When..."

She suddenly remembered the cow and horse incident that he had promised when he returned her sketchbook.

"But you stole my sketchbook first..."

Xie Mingchao chuckled and raised his eyes lazily, "Who should be offended first, you, the woman..." He remembered the reminder from her poke in the waist, and changed his words, "You break into the men's room first and peek."

Shen Qing tried hard to defend: "I didn't mean it!"

Her fair little face even turned red because she raised her voice.

"Why did you go to the bar that day?" He stopped talking about the incident of accidentally breaking into the men's room and changed the subject.

"Celebrating with my friends...I fell into a sea of ​​misery." Shen Qing remembered Gong Xiaoxiao and Chen Qian's ill-intentioned instigation. She frowned and greeted them in her heart. Then she realized that Xie Mingchao was there at the time, "Then why are you there too?" ?”

Xie Mingchao clearly remembers that day when Chen Ziwan acted coquettishly and begged him to help bring the night bar’s signature wine, and truthfully said: “Bring the wine for the family.”

Shen Qing's complexion improved a little after drinking hot water, "Have you got your cool motorcycle back?"

"No, I haven't had time recently. I'll go on the weekend." The ringing of the jogging bell outside had stopped. He closed the book and stood up. "If you still feel uncomfortable, I'll help you ask for leave from your boss."

Her eyes lit up, "Thank you in advance."

Great, I can go home early to eat the feast cooked by Aunt Li.

Xie Mingchao glanced at her increasingly rosy face, but did not expose her, "But there is a condition in exchange."

The corners of Shen Qing's mouth that had just been raised froze, and she said earnestly: "Xie Mingchao, don't be too stingy."

"It is good for both parties to not talk about feelings and only talk about interests." He glanced at the people outside the door who were returning to the classroom in an orderly manner. "Class will start soon. I will give you a minute to think."

She gritted her teeth and said, "I promise."

"Go to the traffic control station with me on Saturday."

Shen Qing didn't know why, but he could only respond: "Okay."

*

For Shen Qing, the only humane thing about Yunhe No. 1 Middle School is that all grades except senior high school students have weekend breaks.

She originally wanted to stay at home and finish the Q-print of the traffic police, but Xie Mingchao asked her to go to the traffic control station together, so she had to give up temporarily.

"Aunt Li, I'm going out for a while."

Li Xin was mopping the floor, and Shen Qing said something in passing as she passed by.

She smiled kindly and nodded, "Okay, come back soon."

Xie Mingchao went to the city library early in the morning and asked Shen Qing to find him at ten o'clock.

As Shen Qing walked towards the gate of the community, she kicked the stones on the roadside angrily, "Who is this person? Do you want me to pick him up?"

Someone suddenly hit her body and she was knocked to the ground before she could react.

Shen Qing painfully covered her injured shoulder and looked at the culprit.

She looked like a woman, with her face completely covered by sunglasses and a mask under a wide fisherman's hat.

Chen Ziwan hurriedly helped her up, "I'm sorry, are you okay?"

Shen Qing heard this voice that felt inexplicably familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

She pressed her waist, which was still not completely healed, and said, "It's okay. Just be careful when walking next time."

"Is your waist injured?" Chen Ziyuan seemed to be hiding from someone. She kept looking around. When she noticed her movements, she could only take out a paper and pen from her pocket and quickly write down a series of numbers. "You will contact me later." With this number, you can reimburse the medical expenses as much as you want."

She lowered the brim of her hat, bent her waist and walked quickly along the edge of the flower bed.

Shen Qing looked at the string of numbers on the note and found it quite familiar.

She took out her mobile phone and opened WeChat and tried to search for this string of numbers. The result that popped up was Xie Mingchao's name.

Shen Qing thought he had typed the wrong number, so he confirmed several times that it was indeed Xie Mingchao.

She didn't think about the relationship between the two, "She must have written it wrong."

Anyway, the waist injury was not caused by her.

On the way to the library, Shen Qing stopped by the drugstore and bought a muscle and bone patch, planning to go back and apply it.
