Chapter 27 Sleeping with You Tonight
In the face of Gu Qingrong's sudden escape, he felt afraid and flustered.
She did not expect that Gu Qingrong's illness had been committed in advance in such an important match.
On the way to find Gu Qingrong, she thought a lot.
The main thing is that no one can know about his illness, absolutely not.
Zeng passed and ran out directly from the audience and looked around alone.
When looking for it, a group of people ran past her side one after another, shouting Gu Qingrong's name in her mouth, all looking anxious.
At this time, the person in charge of the competition who had exchanged telephone numbers with Zeng passed suddenly ran in front of her.
Xu saw her, suddenly stopped and folded back.
"Have you passed your classmates?" He asked, "Are you also here to see Gu Qingrong?"
"..." I didn't know how to answer for a while.
He didn't stay in front of her for too long, but told her, "If you find Gu Qingrong, remember to call us the first time."
Words fell, turned and ran away, followed the team to find Gu Qingrong.
I didn't expect that the last sentence of the person in charge became her most difficult choice today.
*
Gu Qingrong was found by the trash can at the door of the men's bathroom.
At that time, he was hiding behind three or four large garbage cans, followed by a stinking ditch with corrosion and mosquitoes and flies flying all over the sky.
The garbage in the trash can is full, which can completely cover up the half-squatting height of an adult man, and it is filled with a rotting smell.
There were also bursts of peculiar smell in the bathroom next to it, probably because during the competition and the men's bathroom, there were not many men entering and leaving the bathroom here.
Gu Qingrong squatted there, his helmet had been taken off and put aside, his hands tucked in his knees, and his face was tightly buried in his knees, like a kitten who had been hurt and shivered into a corner that he thought was safe.
Fear, fear, worry and defeat tightened him up.
Zeng passed carefully to the ground, slowly squatted in front of him, stretched out his hand to touch him, only to find that his whole body trembled badly.
The hand stretched out in mid-air, so forcefully frozen in situ.
Is he... Crying?
His knees covered his fragility at this time, the helmet beside him was pitifully put aside, and his face was completely covered. It seemed that only in this way could his tears not be seen by anyone, and the swelling of his face caused by his illness not be seen by the sky.
At that time, she could only withdraw her hand silently and did not know how to comfort him.
He is an unruly teenager who likes to soar freely on the ice rink. Pride, strength and self-confidence are his labels all the time.
But when the accident comes and the disease suddenly strikes, he can only be like a coward, retracting all his fragility, unbearable and depression into his shell.
Don't let anyone know.
The voice of Zeng passed was so light that she could hardly hear it. She was afraid that the fragile glass in front of her would crack because of her voice.
"Gu, Gu Qingrong..." she called.
At this point, the voice fell, only to see the boy's shoulders tremble severely.
"I have passed." She tried to make her voice sound calm and normal.
Like making sure that the bearer is a person who gives him enough security, Gu Qingrong slowly lifted his face buried in his knees.
Sure enough.
His face is swollen again.
This swelling is worse than when she first learned his secret.
His whole face was swollen like blisters after being scalded by hot water. His skin was very red and thin. It seemed to break at a poke and get out of control at a break.
The original three-dimensional and deep facial features were squeezed together due to swelling, and the edges were covered off, becoming small and losing their original handsome appearance.
The first time she knew he had the disease, she ran into it in the storage room of the school ice rink.
She remembers very clearly that he was facial edema caused by emotional eating disorder. At that time, he was also eating buns. Now he...
Looking at these big trash cans, I had a bad premonition in my heart.
He won't look for food in the trash can...
"Gu Qingrong, have you eaten?" He leaned over, checked around him again, and then looked at the corners of his mouth to make sure he was not eating anything before he was relieved.
The biggest problem with this emotional eating disorder is that one cannot control one's desire to eat and eats emotionally. Eating too much will lead to many problems.
In addition, he is an athlete and is very limited in eating. If he eats indiscriminately, he will only ruin his career.
But fortunately, now he seems to be able to control himself and eat without grabbing anything at will.
Gu Qingrong looked at her stunningly and shook his head subconsciously when she asked him if he had eaten.
Seeing him like this, his heart seemed to have been cut by a sharp knife, and his feelings of distress welled up all the time.
She felt her nose stuffed and her eyes ruddy, but there were no tears.
She can't cry in front of him. When she cries, one of his stretched lines will break.
Zeng stood up and wanted to help him up and take him away from here. "Go, I'll take you away from here."
It happened that her cell phone rang.
The remark is the person in charge of the competition. It's him.
The heart that once passed was instantly lifted, the breath was slightly stagnant, the key was carefully opened, and the phone was connected: "Hello?"
"Once passed classmates, have you made any progress looking for Gu Qingrong over there? We have not been able to find him here. Have you found him?" The other's voice fell.
Almost at the same time, once passed hands almost soft can't hold the phone.
She bowed her head and her eyes fell on Gu Qingrong, who was squatting.
He also looked at her tightly, with urgent longing and begging in his eyes.
The two men looked at each other. He was nervous and afraid.
Gu Qingrong was afraid that she would give herself up, and then a large number of people would suddenly come in front of him.
He will be exposed to them in this way, even because of his strange "disease", he will be forced to withdraw from the competition, and will never be able to participate in any competitive competition of short track speed skating again.
At this time, she is already the only person he can fully trust. If she betrays him...
He dared not think about the results.
Obviously, Gu Qingrong didn't read the wrong person, and the other party didn't take the trust he sincerely delivered, and then trampled on the soles of his feet at will.
Zeng passed and chose to lie.
Lying to the person in charge of the competition.
I took a few deep breaths and managed to calm myself down. My voice calmly replied, "No, I haven't found him yet."
The person in charge sighed and looked disappointed. Finally, she told her that if she found Gu Qingrong, she would contact him immediately and then hang up.
Zeng passed and squatted down, parallel to his line of sight, staring at his face for a few seconds, and then lifted him up.
"Go, I'll take you away."
The girl's voice is firm to be reckoned with, which can make his restless heart calm down instantly.
This is Gu Qingrong's most secure sentence that she has given him since she knew him.
It seems that his love for Zeng passed slowly became prominent at this moment, until it became stronger and stronger, and he wanted to get close to her and get her more and more.
In order to avoid being found on the way away, Zeng ran back backstage alone to bring his clothes, asked him to change the uniform of the conjoined competition, and put on a fisherman's hat and a mask.
Fortunately, the weather is gloomy and cool, so it doesn't look strange to wear it like this.
The whole suit was dressed up, and his face was covered so tightly that it was difficult for others to distinguish it from him.
There are a lot of people on buses and high-speed trains. Instead of choosing these two means of transportation, they called a taxi and they sat alone.
Instead of getting off at the school gate, they chose to get off one kilometer away from the school.
"Let's walk back." Zeng passed and stretched out his hand and took his hand.
Gu Qingrong did not step, but stood there and looked at her.
"What's the matter?" She asked.
"I don't want to go back to school." He directly explained the situation, "so as not to be scared by my roommates, so every time my face is in trouble, I don't go back to the dormitory for the night."
"You don't go back to the dormitory? Then where to go?"
"Stay in a hotel outside, wait for one night, stabilize your mood, and go back after your face returns to normal."
"Then you now..." Zeng passed to understand what he meant.
He became like this, absolutely can't let anyone see him, not even his closest coach, even his father.
Therefore, every time his body is in condition, he can only choose to hide outside for one night and come back the next day.
Gu Qingrong nodded and turned to the nearby Fenglai Hotel.
I didn't trust him for a while, so I could only follow him and follow him all the way.
Soon, the cell phone rang, and it was Su Xiaoman's phone call.
After connecting, it was nothing more than telling her the most exciting news today-Gu Qingrong ran away again during the competition time! Moreover, this time it is not the award-winning link, but during the competition.
Today, she has been worried about Gu Qingrong. As soon as her mind emptied, Su Xiaoman called.
Su Xiaoman's voice continued to ring in his ear, and his brain was buzzing.
In the end, Su Xiaoman finally finished and asked her, "Didn't you go to watch him play today? Haven't you heard of such a big thing?"
"I just heard about it."
"Where are you now?"
"I'm in..." Zeng passed his eyebrows slightly cu, suddenly changed the conversation, "a friend of mine came to Arial city to play with me, I just went to the station to pick her up. I won't go back to the dormitory tonight and stay with her."
"Why did a friend suddenly appear?" Su Xiaoman is suspicious.
Including this one, I seem to have lied twice today.
This time, Zeng Shao calmly explained: "She also came to me temporarily, so I didn't finish watching Gu Qingrong's match and came to pick up this friend."
Su Xiaoman answered, and finally hung up.
Two people stood at the gate of the hotel.
Xu often came to stay in this hotel. Gu Qingrong gave her ID card to the receptionist. The receptionist looked at Gu Qingrong and at the past behind him, looking ambiguous.
"Did you come with your girlfriend this time?" The receptionist asked with a smile.
Gu Qingrong shook his head. "Classmate."
"Oh." The receptionist tapped the keyboard on his ID card and said, "Every time you come, you wrap yourself up. I only see your eyes. If I hadn't seen your ID card, I wouldn't know what you looked like."
Gu Qingrong didn't chat with her, only answered a few words at will.
The receptionist handed him his ID card, Gu Qingrong took it and turned to look at Zeng Shao behind him.
He didn't hear the phone call he had just made with Su Xiaoman.
She followed him. He thought she was worried about him and did not trust to follow him.
Obviously, this is not the only meaning of the past.
He asked, "I have lived here several times. It's okay. Go back first and I'll find you tomorrow."
At this point, a burst of wind suddenly blew outside, and the dark clouds that had already accumulated into a cluster were short and heavy. The rain seemed to finally break through the cage, accompanied by loud thunder, falling down.
It's raining outside.
Thunderstorms, very heavy, the weather began to get cold.
Zeng passed forward, stared at his beautiful dark eyes, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said seriously, "Gu Qingrong, I'll sleep with you tonight."
