Lei Yumeng hesitated for a moment, but still left.
The night was getting darker, and there was no light in the curtain-like night sky. Only dense snowflakes drifted down, blocking the entire view bit by bit.
It was late at night, and there were no passers-by in the community.
The surroundings were so quiet that only the sound of snow falling from the branches could be heard from time to time, as if Tang Li was the only person left in the whole world.
He quietly looked down at the ground. The snowflakes fell on his long eyelashes, and soon melted into ice and soaked into his eyes. It was so cold that his eyes turned red, and his thin eyelashes turned blue.
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Li finally managed to move his legs, which had almost lost all feeling, and slowly turned around.
Not far behind him to the right, next to a small flower bed, there was an ordinary Buick parked. The dark car seemed to blend into the night, and there was no light in the car.
If one didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to find that there was a car parked there.
But Tang Li's eyes didn't stay on the car for long. He was stunned for a moment, and then quickly turned his eyes away.
If he guessed correctly …
Shen Yu was in that car.
No, according to his understanding of Shen Yu, Shen Yu must be in that car. And if Uncle Zhang came alone, he wouldn't secretly park the car in the dark and watch.
Tang Li crossed his arms, feeling that his brain was a little slow because of the cold air. However, when Shen Yu's gentle smile appeared in front of his eyes, he suddenly felt not cold at all.
It seemed that his heart was full of warmth.
In a trance, he remembered the question Lei Yumeng asked not long ago — why didn't he tell Shen Yu about this matter?
In fact, there was no complicated reason.
He just felt that it was troublesome.
Just like when he agreed to play the childish game of dating with Lei Yumeng, he felt that Lei Yumeng was too troublesome, so he asked the teacher or the group of girls to find something for her to do.
However, Tang Li did not expect things to develop to this point.
At first, he did feel guilty and fearful, but after he found out about the grudge between Lei Yumeng and those girls from his deskmate before he left school, all he wanted to do was to end this matter as soon as possible.
As for his speculation about the authenticity of Lei Yumeng's suicide, it was purely based on the gossip he heard from his deskmate.
She hadn't expected Lei Yumeng to admit it so easily.
Actually, he didn't mind being the scapegoat for Lei Yumeng, but he was annoyed that this matter would never end.
What's more, in Shen Yu's eyes, he was just a somewhat irritable, somewhat unreasonable, and somewhat eccentric child. He would rather Shen Yu mistakenly think that he was a cold-blooded person than let Shen Yu know that he had so many thoughts.
*
The snowy night was especially cold.
Shen Yu's body was wrapped in a thick coat. Before he left, Uncle Zhang deliberately put a blanket on his legs, but he still felt the bone-chilling cold rushing into his clothes while sitting in the car.
Shen Yu suddenly shivered, shrunk his neck, and buried most of his face in his collar, only revealing a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes.
Uncle Zhang sat in the driver's seat, turned his head, and helplessly looked at Shen Yu's shivering appearance, so he advised, "Sir, you should close the window. It's too cold outside, and the car's heater is on. It's easy to get sick in the cold."
"It's okay." Shen Yu replied absent-mindedly. He leaned against the wheelchair, supported his chin with one hand, and stared at a certain spot in front of him.
The thin figure was moving forward with difficulty in the snow.
Shen Yu felt distressed, as if his internal organs were tightly strangled by an extremely thin rope. It was so painful that he almost couldn't breathe.
At this moment, he couldn't wait to run out of the car. Even if Tang Li didn't want to, he could forcibly drag Tang Li over. However, thinking of Tang Li's attitude towards him before, Shen Yu hesitated again.
What if the little villain hated him more because of this? What should he do?
Shen Yu sighed and turned to tell Uncle Zhang, "Call Kang Lin and ask him when he can come over. Ask him to wait outside the main entrance of the community. By the way, take Little Chestnut to the hospital for a check-up."
After staying in the ice and snow for a day and a night, he didn't know if Tang Li's small body would have any problems.
Oh, right!
During this time, Tang Li probably didn't even have a drink, right?
Thinking of this, Shen Yu suddenly felt a pain in his heart, as if it was being squeezed.
He hated Tang Li's behavior so much yesterday afternoon, and now he regretted treating Tang Li in the same bad way. No matter how bad the little villain was, he was just a teenager, and needed adults to guide him in the right way.
You couldn't expect a bent iron rod to suddenly become straight.
Perhaps educating him in a soothing tone was more useful than severely scolding.
When Shen Yu finished thinking about this, Uncle Zhang had already called Kang Lin. He said, "Kang Lin will be here in a few minutes. Let's go out first …"
Before Uncle Zhang finished speaking, he was interrupted by Shen Yu's action.
Just now, Tang Li, who was walking in the snow, suddenly fell straight forward for some reason, and then there was no more movement …
Shen Yu, who had been staring outside, was instantly frightened when he saw this. He didn't even have time to think about it. He instinctively opened the car door and rushed out in his wheelchair.
Fortunately, Uncle Zhang reacted quickly and grabbed Shen Yu's arm.
"You wait in the car. I'll go and take a look." After Uncle Zhang finished speaking, he got out of the car and ran over.
Not long after, Uncle Zhang rushed back with the unconscious Tang Li in his arms. He put Tang Li in the back seat and hurried back to the driver's seat to start the car.
Shen Yu covered Tang Li with the blanket on his lap. He held Tang Li's hand, and the cold touch seemed to soak into his skin and then spread to his bones.
"Hiss …" Shen Yu was so cold that he sucked in a breath of cold air, but he was not willing to let go of Tang Li's hand.
Tang Li, who was wrapped in the blanket, seemed to have gained some awareness. He moved closer to Shen Yu and rubbed his face against Shen Yu's palm. Shen Yu didn't know if he was conscious or not.
The little villain's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and his face was pale and purple …
He looked very pitiful.
"Chestnut." Shen Yu carefully stroked Tang Li's cold cheek, and his voice trembled with distress. "It's okay. We'll take you to the hospital."
Shen Yu thought that Tang Li was unconscious. Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Tang Li slowly opened his eyes, and his hazy vision gradually focused on Shen Yu's face.
His almond-shaped eyes were half-closed, and his dark eyes were covered with a layer of mist.
"Shen Yu …" Tang Li's voice was extremely hoarse.
"I'm here." Shen Yu hurriedly leaned over and tried to rub Tang Li's cheeks. He asked nervously, "Are you still cold?"
Then, Shen Yu hurriedly turned to Uncle Zhang who was driving and said, "Turn the heater to the maximum."
Uncle Zhang said, "Sir, it's already turned to the maximum."
Shen Yu was anxious and helpless. He had to urge Uncle Zhang to drive faster, and then turned back to twist the blanket for Tang Li. Unexpectedly, Tang Li followed his movements and hugged his arm tightly.
"I'm so cold …" Tang Li said in a hoarse voice, almost pleading, "Shen Yu, can you hug me?"
Shen Yu lowered her head and met Tang Li's misty eyes. She didn't conceal the anticipation in her eyes at all, and she looked like a pitiful puppy.
"Hug me …" Tang Li was still urging him in a low voice.
Shen Yu couldn't refuse, so he reluctantly changed the direction of the wheelchair.
He faced Tang Li directly. Just as he was about to hug Tang Li, he saw that Tang Li, who looked very weak just now, rolled into his arms. His movements were extremely flexible.
Shen Yu, "…"
For a moment, he thought that Tang Li was pretending to be sick.
But Shen Yu looked down and saw that Tang Li was lying on his lap with his eyes closed. He was breathing with difficulty, and his eyebrows were knitted in pain. He quickly dispelled those doubts.
At this time, he was still thinking nonsense …
Shen Yu blamed himself.
He unbuttoned his coat and wrapped Tang Li's upper body.
Tang Li noticed Shen Yu's movements, so he changed his position in his arms, buried his face in Shen Yu's chest, and hugged Shen Yu's waist tightly with both hands.
"Shen Yu," Tang Li said in a muffled voice, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I won't do it again."
Tang Li couldn't even speak clearly. Shen Yu spent some effort to vaguely understand what the little villain was saying.
Shen Yu was stunned. He gently patted Tang Li's back and said, "I'm also wrong."
"No, you're not wrong." Tang Li shook his head in Shen Yu's arms, hugged Shen Yu tighter, and said, "I'm the one who's wrong. I lied to you. I did those things, but I've apologized to Lei Yumeng, and she forgave me."
Shen Yu sighed, "I know."
Tang Li said with grievance, "Shen Yu, will you forgive me?"
Shen Yu stroked Tang Li's back and said gently, "Of course, you're a child of the Shen family."
Tang Li paused for a long time, and then said, "Will you still drive me away?"
Shen Yu thought for a while before he realized that Tang Li still remembered that he had asked him to move to the place near the school. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He lowered his head and touched Tang Li's soft hair.
"I'm sorry, I said those words in a fit of anger. Now I take them back."
After that, Shen Yu clearly felt that Tang Li's body trembled violently. He was really afraid of Tang Li's hoarse voice, so he quickly said, "Don't talk. Take a rest first. I'll wake you up when we arrive at the hospital."
Tang Li nodded obediently.
Soon, he fell asleep in Shen Yu's arms.
However, after arriving at the hospital, Shen Yu didn't wake Tang Li up. Instead, he asked Uncle Zhang to help carry Tang Li inside.
During the whole process, Tang Li didn't show any signs of waking up. At first, Shen Yu thought that Tang Li was sleeping soundly, so he asked the doctors and nurses to be quiet so as not to wake the child up.
Later, after the doctor's reminder, he knew that Tang Li had fainted again.
This night was quite torturous for Shen Yu. Although the doctor gave Tang Li an infusion bottle, in the middle of the night, Tang Li still had a high fever uncontrollably.
Shen Yu was sitting in a wheelchair beside Tang Li's bed. He had fallen asleep on his stomach. When he woke up in the early morning, he subconsciously touched Tang Li's forehead. The next second, he was scared by the hot temperature and his face turned pale.
"Uncle Zhang!" Shen Yu shouted. Even his voice changed. It also woke up Uncle Zhang and Kang Lin who were dozing outside the ward.
Uncle Zhang immediately called the doctor and asked the doctor to give Tang Li an injection. After that, Tang Li's condition gradually improved.
Shen Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did he realize that he was in a cold sweat just now. His sweaty clothes stuck tightly to his skin. He felt very uncomfortable.
Kang Lin saw that Shen Yu's face was ashen and there was a faint layer of dark circles under his eyes. He stepped forward and suggested, "Mr. Shen, you and Uncle Zhang can go back first. I'll stay here."
"No need." Shen Yu shook his head and refused. "Anyway, it's almost dawn. Why don't you go back and rest? Come to me at noon tomorrow."
Regarding Shen Yu's proposal, Uncle Zhang and Kang Lin naturally did not agree. So the two of them continued to sit on the bench outside the ward and doze off.
Shen Yu drank a cup of cold water to wake himself up. He planned to sit by the hospital bed until dawn. Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for him to fall asleep again.
This sleep was very uncomfortable.
In a daze, there seemed to be something moving on the skin of Shen Yu's face. It was very light but also very itchy. Shen Yu frowned and carefully felt it. He felt that it seemed to be a hand.
It was carefully stroking his cheek.
Shen Yu was a little impatient. She suddenly opened her eyes and met with a pair of slightly panicked black eyes, which were mixed with a few traces of concealment.
