The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy Chapter 20: I am allergic to peanuts

Gu Tingyin held a dinner plate and obediently followed behind Shen Zhijin.

The meals on the second floor of the cafeteria are slightly more expensive, and there are many choices of meals, so relatively speaking, it is much cleaner than the first floor.

Seeing that Shen Zhijin took a small portion of crispy meat, she quickly took one.

Seeing as he took a small portion of greens, she followed suit.

Seeing that Shen Zhijin took a small bowl of soup, she also put a portion on the plate.

Shen Zhijin looked back and saw that she had the exact same meal selection on her plate, and raised her hand to put all the meals on her plate back one by one.

“Hey—”

Gu Tingyin turned around quickly, nervously protecting her last small bowl of fried vegetables,

"Didn't we agree to eat together?"

If he eats, she sees, what is it called to eat together!

This is their first meal together!

Shen Zhijin gave her a quiet look, and finally let her keep the vegetable.

Gu Tingyin breathed a sigh of relief, and happily sat across from him with the small bowl of green vegetables.

Although there are few people on the second floor, all of them look this way with different expressions.

Gu Tingyin doesn't mind at all.

She was very happy looking at the bowl of green vegetables in front of her.

"Shen Zhijin, is this what you like to eat?"

Shen Zhijin paused for a while, but did not answer her question, just looked into her eyes and said in a low voice:

"The Xijing Academy of Fine Arts is quite far from here."

The smile on her face instantly froze.

Of course she understood what he meant.

Meeting his calm eyes, she felt a little panic in her heart, and hurriedly lowered her head and took a bite of green vegetables.

"Alright, alright, I think the food here is better."

Shen Zhijin saw her hurriedly eating, she didn't even dare to raise her head, her brows narrowed slightly, and there was a moment of hesitation for the words hidden in her throat.

But only for a moment.

It can't be like this anymore, every time she comes over, he has to stop everything in his hand.

Whether he is preparing for a meeting, reading literature, or even conducting an experiment.

He has always been serious and rigorous, and is used to having everything organized and precise.

But once she shows up, all plans are disrupted.

This feeling of being frequently broken inertia is very unfamiliar, like something is getting out of control.

He doesn't like the feeling, so the best option is to stop, correct, and get back on track.

"What happened before is just a little effort, but since you insist on thanking you, after this meal, we will be clear between us."

Gu Tingyin moved.

It turns out that he agreed to have dinner with her just to say these things to her.

It turned out that he wanted to clear things up.

She still kept her head down, because she was still biting the green vegetable in her mouth, and her voice sounded a little vague:

"Hands up...then if it were someone else, would you do the same?"

Shen Zhijin was taken aback.

Because he suddenly discovered that with him, there is no if.

He never imagined that Gu Tingyin would be replaced by someone else.

However, this moment of silence was tacitly understood by Gu Tingyin.

The chest seemed to be blocked by something, and it was so oppressive that it even became difficult to breathe.

She suddenly put down the chopsticks with a sound, neither light nor heavy.

Shen Zhijin frowned slightly.

Is what he said just now going too far?

He saw Gu Tingyin's eyebrows twitched, her thick curled eyelashes fluttering slightly, and her breathing became a little short.

Looks like you're crying?

Shen Zhijin's hand tightened slightly, and for some reason, his heart seemed to be pulled hard by something.

"You—"

He just opened his head, thinking about how to continue this conversation, when he suddenly saw Gu Tingyin raise his head.

Her porcelain white face was flushed red, but her lips were pale, and she was breathing heavily with one hand on her chest.

Shen Zhijin immediately realized that something was wrong.

"What's the matter with you?"

Gu Tingyin was extremely uncomfortable, with tears in her eyes, while breathing hard, she said in a hoarse voice:

"...peanut oil...in vegetables...I, I am allergic to peanuts..."

Shen Zhijin's heart sank suddenly.

Gu Tingyin is severely allergic to peanuts, and she was sent to the hospital because of this when she was a child.

Since then, there has been no peanut-related food on the Gu family's dining table.

Even the whole family, inside and out, is not even allowed to appear in the form of peanuts.

Over time, she paid less attention to it.

So when she came to the second floor for dinner today, she forgot to ask what oil they used!

Her face and neck also started to itch.

She couldn't help but grab it, but before she touched it, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist tightly.

Shen Zhijin came to her at some point and held her hand.

She looked up with tears in her eyes, struggling to breathe and exhausted.

"Shen Zhijin..."

The next moment, she felt her body suddenly vacate, and her whole body fell into a firm and cool embrace.

The cold voice tapped her eardrums and beat her heart.

"I'll take you to the hospital."

……

"Fortunately, it was delivered on time. The patient's condition is now stable, but he still needs to be hospitalized for a day of observation."

The doctor raised his finger,

"Go downstairs to complete the formalities."

Shen Zhijin breathed a sigh of relief:

"Thank you doctor."

He glanced at the ward subconsciously.

The door is closed and no one can be seen.

The doctor couldn't help but blame:

"Young man, I'm not telling you, your girlfriend is seriously allergic to peanuts, why don't you take care of it? Look at the little girl this time, so much suffering!"

Shen Zhijin's lips pursed slightly.

"...I'm sorry."

"What did you say I'm sorry? You should talk to your girlfriend!"

The doctor shook his head,

"Come on!"

Shen Zhijin nodded, and just turned around, the doctor called him again:

"By the way, you can stop by and buy some fruits with high vitamin C content, which can help patients recover."

He responded.

……

When Shen Zhijin returned to the ward, he saw that Gu Tingyin was lying on the hospital bed with a small mirror in his hand, looking left and right.

She sighed worriedly.

Hey.

She had a severe allergic reaction, with red spots on her face and body.

Although it has slowed down now, he must have seen it before.

Footsteps came from behind.

"Feeling better?"

She quickly hid the small mirror in a conditioned reflex, then lifted the quilt to bury herself.

Shen Zhijin: "..."

He puts things on the locker.

It seems that she has improved a lot, but he still doesn't dare to take it lightly when he thinks of how she looked when she was ill.

"The doctor said that you need to stay in the hospital for observation for a day, I'll wait for you to ask your counselor for a leave of absence, you-"

"What!"

Gu Tingyin got out of the quilt and her eyes widened.

Shen Zhijin thought she was afraid of a person, paused, and said:

"I'm here with you."

Gu Tingyin hurriedly shook her head and grabbed his hand:

"No! I mean, if you want to ask for a leave of absence, don't say I have a peanut allergy!"

Shen Zhijin's eyes drooped slightly, and when he saw the soft and pale hand she was holding tightly to him, for some reason, the hot touch came again.

He tilted his head slightly, but he didn't break free after all, only asked:

"Why?"

Why?

Gu Tingyin was about to cry.

If this matter spreads to the family, the family will be killed if they fail to protect it!

After all, she's only been in school for half a month!

"I-I'm afraid that my family will be worried. Well, why don't you wait and say, I have a cold or a fever? Anyway, I can say anything, just don't say I'm allergic!"

Shen Zhijin was silent for a moment.

None of these statements seems to be able to reasonably explain the fact that he came out of the cafeteria with her in his arms.

Gu Tingyin clenched his hand and looked pleading:

"Are you okay?"

He finally responded in a low voice:

"Hmm."

Gu Tingyin let out a long sigh of relief, then let go of his hand and lay back again.

"Hoo—that's fine, that's fine..."

The soft touch separated, and he suddenly felt as if somewhere in his heart was empty.

But the emotion was only fleeting, and he looked into her face.

It seems to be much better...

Gu Tingyin met his gaze, suddenly exclaimed, lifted the quilt again, and covered herself.

Shen Zhijin: "..."

"I bought you some fruit, do you want to eat it?"

The quilt shook, as if shaking her head, her voice was muffled:

"Don't eat."

"Aren't you bored?"

"Not boring! I'm very good!"

“…”

No matter how Shen Zhijin persuaded her, she refused to get out of the quilt.

But she just finished the desensitization treatment, how can she be stuffed under the quilt like this?

"Come out."

"No! I fell asleep!"

Shen Zhijin ran out patiently.

He grabbed the quilt with one hand.

She pulled her desperately, but she fought him, and he finally dug it out of the quilt.

She covered her face.

"Don't watch!"

Shen Zhijin finally understood what she was worried about, and was both angry and funny for a while.

"It's all set," he said.

Gu Tingyin looked at him through her fingers and was suspicious.

"Really?"

"Really." Shen Zhijin paused slightly, "Didn't you already look in the mirror just now?"

Gu Tingyin's face flushed instantly.

No, there is nothing more humiliating than this...

She stammered:

"Well, that mirror is too small! There are so many I can't see!"

Shen Zhijin gave her another look:

"Really good."

Gu Tingyin calmed down a little, but she was still afraid that he was just comforting herself.

She thought for a while, turned sideways, pushed her waist-length hair to one side, tilted her head slightly, pulled down her collar, and pointed to her position slightly behind her neck:

"Then, is there no more here? I still feel a little itchy."

Her movement was sudden, and the delicate white light caught his eyes off guard.

Shen Zhijin's heart skipped a beat, and without thinking, he pulled the curtain between the beds, blocking the sight of the two patients behind him and the bed companion.

Gu Tingyin looked at him strangely when she heard the sound.

"What—hey, Shen Zhijin, are you hot?"

He looked away, but the scene just now was still deeply imprinted in his mind.

His Adam's apple rolled.

"No."

She looked at the tips of his reddish ears, thought for a moment, and finally looked at the orange on the bed.

"That's because I just went to buy this for me?"

Shen Zhijin breathed a sigh of relief:

"Hmm."

Gu Tingyin laughed:

"Thank you! I like peaches the most, but oranges also—"

"I'll buy it for you."

"Huh?"

Gu Tingyin looked blank.

"That, that's too much trouble..."

"No trouble~IndoMTL.com~ He said, without waiting for her to persuade him, he turned and walked out.

For some reason, the boy's tall and straight back looked a little embarrassed.

"Wait!"

Gu Tingyin called him again.

He stopped in his footsteps and tilted his head slightly:

"What's wrong?"

Gu Tingyin said nervously:

"That...you said just now that you will stay here today, right? Then you, come back sooner."

She's really uncomfortable being here alone.

Shen Zhijin paused for a moment and replied in a low voice.

"Good."
