lake garden moon

In the afternoon, the sun is everywhere outside the garden, and the summer is strong.

The sky was clear and cloudless, and the silence in the garden was filled with some small murmur.They came in through light and heat, and slowly permeated Kang Zhier's body in the air, forming a slight anxiety and emptiness.

Perhaps it was the follow-up symptoms of hangover, Kang Zhier felt that something was missing from his body.

This day's dinner is in charge of Laner.

Kang Zhier watched her busy beside him, and asked her, "Elvis, isn't he coming back for dinner?"

Lan'er nodded and answered him: "Yes."

Hearing this, Kang Zhier was silent for a while.Afterwards, he asked Lan'er: "Elvis, is he busy? I haven't seen him at home for the past two days."

"I'm not very clear," Lan'er shook her head lightly, telling him, "This time of year is not a busy season."

After listening to Lan'er's words, Kang Zhier fell into silence again.

After finishing dinner, Lan'er stopped suddenly, stood quietly and recalled, and after getting clues in her heart, she said thoughtfully: "I think, I may know the reason why the young master didn't go home for dinner these two days."

"Really?" Kang Zhier withdrew his thoughts and asked Lan'er, "What's the reason?"

Lan'er turned to look at the door of the restaurant, and after confirming that Bandari was not there, she sat down and told Kang Zhier: "At the beginning of the year, I overheard the old gentleman discussing with Mr. Bu about the blind date of Young Master Zhang Luo."

"Blind date?" Kang Zhier was extremely surprised, "Elvis?"

"Yeah," Lan'er nodded, and recalled, "It's said that the young master is not young, and he always walks alone. It won't work like this."

"Then Elvis," Kang Zhier asked her, "what's his attitude?"

To be honest, it was hard for Kang Zhier to imagine the picture of Elvis sitting in the restaurant on a blind date with a girl, and he always felt that everything was weird.

"Master, he doesn't care about this at all," Lan'er waved her hand and said, "Mr. Bu has been to the house many times because of this matter, and even the old man called back from the west several times."

Then, she continued: "In June, there was a call from the east, saying that some real estate affairs required the young master's signature, so the young master went to stay for a while. When the young master came back, the old man called again."

As she spoke, she approached Kang Zhier and revealed in a low voice: "I heard the young master tell the old gentleman that he already has someone he likes, and he will only be with the person he likes."

Hearing this, Kang Zhier's eyes slowly opened wide.

"Elvis, does he like someone?" He was shocked, and hurriedly turned to Lan'er, "Who is it?"

Lan'er looked at him and shook her head at him: "I don't know."

"So you don't know," Kang Zhier immediately lost his excitement, and asked Lan Er amusedly, "Then how can you be sure that this matter has something to do with Elvis's relationship?"

"But," Lan'er clasped her hands, with a little girl's look on her face, muttered, "That's what my intuition tells me."

As she said that, she asked Kang Zhier: "Master Xiaozhi, haven't you noticed that the young master has been different recently?"

"What's different?" Kang Zhier looked at her wonderingly.

"Master, he's in a better mood." Lan'er said innocently.

Kang Zhier blinked mechanically, recalling Elvis' behavior and attitude after he arrived, and the corners of his mouth froze on his face inexplicably.

"Have it?"

"Yes, yes..."

When Lan'er was about to say something, the aunt came in from the outside and asked her to go to the kitchen to help prepare desserts.She promised, greeted Kang Zhier, quickly got up from the dining chair, and followed her aunt out.

After Lan'er left, Kang Zhier picked up chopsticks to eat.After taking two bites, he stopped suddenly, trying to recall what Lan'er mentioned just now.

"Elvis, does he have someone he likes?"

"is that a lie."

Because of the drunken gaffe, Kang Zhier was absent-minded all day long, and he was also extremely tired.At night he filled the bathtub with hot water and soaked until his skin wrinkled before getting up.

When Kang Zhier came out of the bathroom, he felt that his shoulders were not so sore.

He walked to the desk and picked up his cell phone. Originally, he wanted to check the charging status of the cell phone, but found that the group group was active for a while.

He opened the chat group and found that the students were discussing the progress of homework in it.

Kang Zhier vaguely felt something was wrong, and hurriedly checked his mailbox, and sure enough, he found a homework task that he had forgotten in the inbox.And based on the time difference, seven o'clock tomorrow morning is the last time to submit homework.

According to the original plan, Kang Zhier planned to finish his homework today.However, because of Elvis, he completely forgot about this homework.

Thinking of this, Kang Zhier shivered, stopped blowing his wet hair, pulled out his chair, sat down and started to catch up with homework.

When Kang Zhier started, the time was displayed as 21:45 that night.By the time he submitted his homework, it was already six o'clock the next morning.

He didn't close his eyes all night.In order to overcome drowsiness, he made himself very strong coffee and drank it cup by cup.

Several times, Kang Zhier felt that he was awakened by bitterness.

After handing in the homework, Kang Zhier closed the computer, and the familiar reactions were the signals from his body.He supported his forehead with both hands, sat down for a while, and then stood up from behind the desk.

Kang Zhier came out of the bedroom and walked slowly while leaning on the wall.His body is now going to two extremes. On the one hand, there is nothing in the chest cavity, and on the other hand, the heart is beating violently like adrenaline.

Kang Zhier needed sugar, but it was still early, and the servants at home hadn't woken up yet.He figured he could make it to the first floor and get food from the refrigerator.

By this time, it was already bright outside.But there was no sun in the garden yet, and the light-poor corridors looked gray.Kang Zhier supported the wall, and touched the frosted wall paint with his fingers, trying to get a real sense of body from the old uneven lines.

The end of his line of sight was the staircase at the end of the corridor.On weekdays, the stairs that are reached in less than ten seconds have become out of reach this morning.

Every time Kang Zhier took a step, he had to make sure that he was still standing.Already his fingers were shaking and his knees were weakening.When he was halfway to the bedroom and the stairs, his knees gave out.

Kang Zhier knelt down facing the carpet. After falling down, he turned over and lay on the carpet, gasping for breath.He raised his eyelids vigorously, and the high ceiling in the mansion soon became wavy, and finally disappeared from his vision.

Kang Zhier didn't know how long he had been asleep, he opened his eyes, and what he saw was the familiar ceiling carvings.

"Xiaozhi, you're awake." Bandari's voice sounded beside him.

Kang Zhier hadn't fully recovered his sanity at this time, so he reacted very slowly.After he calmed down, he slowly turned his face to one side, and found that Bandari was not the only person beside his bed.

His physical strength has not yet fully caught up, and his pupils are not as flexible as before, and he can't take them back after turning them for a while, just like this, they are quiet and weird with Elvis, who is sitting on the edge of the bed with their arms folded. looking at each other.

Then, he felt a warm palm on his forehead.Immediately afterwards, Bandari's kind voice rang in his ears: "Xiao Zhi, are you feeling alright?"

The temperature of Bandari's palm added energy to Kang Zhier, he turned his face back and nodded slightly to Bandari.

"It's okay." He replied Bandari.

Hearing his answer, Bandari breathed a sigh of relief, stroked his forehead kindly and told him: "Next time you feel that you have hypoglycemia, don't hold on, remember to seek help."

"Understood." Kang Zhier obediently agreed.

Bandari looked at him, with a gratified expression on his face, and said pleasantly: "Fortunately, Elvis found you in the corridor, otherwise, when the servants go upstairs, you don't know how long you have passed out."

Bandari's words surprised Kang Zhier.

It turned out that Elvis had found him.

After Bandari finished talking to him, he glanced at the wall clock on the wall, then straightened up, turned to Elvis and said: "Elvis, the people from the reception supplier will come at eight o'clock, I have to tell them Butt. Can you stay here and take care of Xiao Zhi?"

Kang Zhier's movements were still very slow, and he didn't have time to turn his face away. He only saw Elvis put his hands around his chest down from the corner of his vision.

After Bandari left, Kang Zhier tried to sit up, but he couldn't use his hands, so he could only turn his face to ask Elvis for help.

"Elvis, can you help me up?"

Elvis glanced at him, then quietly got up from the armchair, walked to the edge of the bed and helped him to sit up on the bed.

After Kang Zhier sat down, he looked at him and said, "Thank you."

Hearing his thanks, Elvis seemed not quite used to it, looked at him for a while before speaking: "It's just a small matter, you don't have to be so polite."

Kang Zhier looked into his eyes and replied seriously: "I want to thank you for saving me in the corridor this morning."

His earnestness seemed to make Elvis uncomfortable again.Elvis didn't expressly reply his thanks, but just looked away and sat down in the original position again.

The bedroom was surprisingly quiet for a while, but the atmosphere was not too embarrassing.

When Kang Zhier was thinking about what he was going to say, Elvis suddenly spoke.

"Why did you suddenly faint in the morning?" He asked Kang Zhier.

"I stayed up all night to catch up with my homework last night," Kang Zhier answered him truthfully, "it may be because I didn't sleep and I was too hungry."

After he finished speaking, Elvis' eyes suddenly became focused, and Kang Zhier had an illusion, as if he was sitting opposite and carefully observing himself.

After about a while, Elvis's expression returned to normal.He looked at Kang Zhier, and said in a serious but not cold tone: "I didn't know you were prone to hypoglycemia before."

Kang Zhier lowered his head to think about this question, and then answered him: "Maybe it's because, at that time, I didn't lack biscuits and chocolates in my pocket."

After speaking, he gave Elvis a friendly smile and explained, "I only discovered it when I grew up."

"When was it?" Elvis asked him.

Kang Zhier thought about it for a moment, and then answered him: "It must have been when I was 13 years old. Irene and I went on a study tour. That day, in order to catch an early flight, I didn't have time to eat breakfast, and then I fainted in the waiting room due to exhaustion."

After finishing speaking, he raised the corner of his mouth mischievously, and laughed at Irene: "Irene was still young at the time, and when she saw me faint, she was so frightened that she cried."

"She loved watching weird books and TV shows since she was a child, and said she thought her best friend was going to die."

He was immersed in the joy of recalling the past, and described it vividly. When he came back to his senses, he saw Elvis sitting on the chair thoughtfully, looking away, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Elvis," Kang Zhier asked him, "what's wrong with you?"

Hearing his voice, Elvis slowly raised his eyes, stared at him for a while, and shook his head.

Seeing that Elvis was not interested in his memories, Kang Zhier stopped talking.He sat on the bed, looking back and forth between his hand that was infusing glucose and the bedside table.After a while of this, he asked Elvis for help.

"Elvis, I want a drink of water."

When Elvis heard it, he brought him water in a sippy cup.

Because Kang Zhier hadn't eaten yet, his fingers were still weak, and he couldn't hold the water glass firmly even after several times.Seeing him like this, Elvis was worried about his physical strength, and after several unsuccessful attempts, he simply sat on his bed with a water glass and turned the straw towards him.

"Drink."

"it is good."

Kang Zhier nodded, then bent his neck, sipping slowly like a child with a straw in his mouth.

He took a few sips and stopped to breathe. Elvis thought that he would take away the water glass after he stopped drinking, so Kang Zhier put his hand on the back of his hand and bit the straw again.

"Wait a moment."

Elvis froze immediately.

The intake of water moistened Kang Zhier's thirsty throat, and also brought a little clarity to his thoughts.

He noticed that, unlike Elvis's appearance and personality, he had very docile fingers and the back of his hand that gave people a good impression.

After he drank enough water, he raised his head and saw Elvis sitting in front of him, with his head slightly lowered, looking at him with concerned eyes.There is some distance between the two.

Kang Zhier's attention was attracted by the bruise on Elvis' knuckles.He subconsciously touched Elvis's scar with his thumb, and asked him softly, "Elvis, does it hurt here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, it was obvious that Elvis gripped the water glass slightly.However, his fingers still looked extremely docile, and the back of his hand didn't feel stiff and annoying.

"It doesn't hurt." Elvis answered him dryly.

Kang Zhier raised his head, met his gaze, and asked him, "Did I make this place?"

Elvis didn't answer, just stared at him intently.

Kang Zhier put his palm against the back of his hand, looked into his eyes, and couldn't help saying: "Elvis, I'm sorry."

Elvis blinked silently when he heard him apologize to himself, expressing that he did not understand.

"Sorry Elvis, I didn't mean to enter your bedroom last night."

"I'm drunk and went to the wrong bedroom." Kang Zhier gently held his hand and asked him sincerely, "Can you stop being angry with me?"

Elvis met his eyes, and then his eyes fell on their joined hands.Perhaps because he didn't want to show too much fuss, he answered Kang Zhier politely and politely: "I'm not angry with you."

This morning, although Elvis' attitude did not show much friendliness, his tone was still cold.However, what Kang Zhier had to admit was that the weight that had been weighing on his heart for the past two days did not completely disappear until this moment came.

Elvis went to work when it was time to work.

At noon, Kang Zhier went downstairs to eat.

He sat in front of the dining table, lowered his head and brushed his subject while waiting for Suta and the others to serve lunch.Suddenly, he raised his head, and was a little surprised to find that Lan Er was also arranging dishes opposite him.

"Are there any guests today?" He asked Lan'er.

"No." Lan'er shook her head at him.

"Then this is..." Kang Zhier cast a puzzled look at her.

Laner is in a good mood today, looking cheerful.She raised a smiley face at Kang Zhier with the dish, and answered him: "Mr. Assistant called back in the morning and said that the young master will be home for dinner at noon."
