Feng Xiao Qing asked in a low voice, "Is... Is it always like this?" She looked at him worriedly while biting her lower lip."What do you mean by like this?" Lu Yi Feng furrowed his eyebrows. His mind was still incoherent after the allergic reaction happened and he didn"t get what she meant.
"The symptoms, I mean. Is it always this bad?" She wanted to ask whether the allergy could kill him, but she didn"t think that it was a good question. Besides, from the scene that she had seen, it could probably happen.
Honestly, her heart was really breaking for him --- no wonder that women were taboo things for him. If she were him, she would be afraid and decide to avoid the source of her allergy at all costs too! When she looked at Lu Yi Feng and saw how he was almost out of breath, she felt her heart was being pierced with a knife.
Feng Xiao Qing was really afraid.
She had thought that she would lose him for a second and that was also the reason why she didn"t have the strength to stand up at this moment. She felt her whole body turned into a jelly and could only clutch to him as her strength. They were both sitting on the ground and didn"t even care whether their clothes would be dirty or not.
Feng Xiao Qing thought that he must have been very lonely all this time.
Lu Yi Feng laughed when he heard her question. He knew that she was worried about him, so he tried to make her feel at ease. "Yes, it has always been like this... But as you can see... I survive until this time, right? I already get used to it... You don"t need to feel guilty... As long as the medicine is here, I will be fine."
The more he tried to look strong in front of her, the guiltier she was.
He patted her back while hugging and comforting her at the same time. No one had ever hugged him to console him before, after all, he could only hang around with boys with his condition. Once he had tried to brave and befriend a cute cla.s.smate, in the end, he was almost dead when that girl accidentally touched him.
His mother managed to keep his condition a secret, but ever since then, Lu Yi Feng steered away from women like they were viruses.
Lu Yi Feng had no sister and couldn"t have a friends.h.i.+p with women, so who would hug him just to comfort him? He had only two best friends throughout his whole life. Thinking of his best friends, such as Tang Yi Jun or Zi Hao hugging him?! Hmph! It would be over his dead body and he really shuddered at that thoughts ah~!
The feeling of being comforted by a hug... wasn"t that bad, actually. He smiled to himself because he was truly happy at this moment. This felt like Heaven.
After the episode that he had just gone through just now, he thought the matter in which he was fine after being touched by Feng Xiao Qing was only a fluke. Maybe he couldn"t touch her again... because it was only a coincidence --- maybe it had happened because of a trauma. Er... maybe because he was being slapped so his brain hadn"t fully processed the whole thing and the allergic reaction forgot to appear?! When he thought of this, he felt so disappointed!
There were a lot of maybes in his mind.
Thus, he didn"t want to release his current hug.
He had seen just now that he still had another pack of medicine with him, so he didn"t mind trying again. If the allergy flared up once again, then it was really just a fluke! It was better to be safe than sorry later!
Half an hour later... They were still hugging each other. People had been whispering to each other about how this couple kept supplying them with a public display of affection but the involved party didn"t even care for one bit!
After Lu Yi Feng felt his allergy had finally calmed down, he could finally sigh in relief. However, his body was tense once again because he was expecting the worst. Feng Xiao Qing could feel his tense body, but she didn"t understand why. In her thought, they already knew that he was fine when she was touching him.
One minute...
Two minutes...
Three minutes...
Lu Yi Feng started to sweat. After all, he had been in low esteem for so long because of this, so he didn"t want to get his hope and then crushed later.
Four minutes...
Five minutes...
Nothing happened.
Really, nothing happened.
He was still fine!
It seemed like... his allergy really didn"t flare up when he touched her --- not a fluke whatsoever! Was this fate, destiny, or luck? He didn"t know which one but he was feeling really grateful. He hugged her tighter and Feng Xiao Qing let him be...
She wanted him to calm down and see that she wasn"t going anywhere.
Lu Yi Feng really felt that he should be thanking fate...
What if it wasn"t Feng Xiao Qing but a woman that he didn"t like? His life would be ruined as well. Even if he got together with that woman, he wouldn"t be able to find happiness! He was really thankful that the woman was Feng Xiao Qing!
He finally released her and said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, "I"m fine... Thank you..."
Feng Xiao Qing nodded her head and smiled happily, "You are most welcome..." She looked at her watch and said, "Come on! We should go home... I"m not feeling at ease if we are leaving Xiao Xi Xi all alone for too long..."
Lu Yi Feng nodded his head.
"Can you walk?" Feng Xiao Qing asked worriedly.
He waved his hand and said, "I can..."
They walked back home and enjoyed the night. Even though they weren"t talking to each other but they felt more intimate than ever...
