老攻身患绝症[穿书]

Chapter 72

Xie Yang pretended not to see that Qiu Xing was angry. He took out his mobile phone and flipped through the comments under Mu Zhouyi’s rehearsal video. Then he sent a WeChat message to Qin Cheng and Hu Biao.

An hour later, the car parked in the open-air parking lot deep in the sanatorium. Xie Yang and Qiu Xing get out of the car and went to the small building. 

Qiu Xing’s face was very gloomy as he walked. He didn’t look at all like he was coming to celebrate Chinese New Year. He looked more like he was collecting debts. Xie Yang followed behind Qiu Xing and was in a good mood.

Before entering the small building, Xie Yang called out to Qiu Xing. Qiu Xing immediately stopped and looked at Xie Yang. “What?”

Xie Yang reminded him. “Be closer.” Then he walked next to Qiu Xing and gestured to go inside. “Let’s go.”

…How was walking side by side being closer? 

The expectations in Qiu Xing’s heart were pierced and extinguished. His gaze dropped to Xie Yang’s hand hanging beside him. He wanted to grab it but he was ashamed to take the initiative to reach out his hand. He held back, hesitating and hesitating until they had arrived in the small living room where Mother Qiu was waiting.

Qiu Xing, “……”

Mother Qiu’s mind was clear. She was sitting on the sofa and listening to the news. Once Qiu Xing came in, she looked up and frowned. “What’s wrong with you? Aren’t you happy to see me? Why are you making such a long face?”

Qiu Xing hurriedly adjusted his expression and stepped forward to sit opposite his mother. “No, that’s not it. Mom, how are you feeling these days?”

“Very good.” Mother Qiu looked up at Xie Yang and she examined him from head to toe. “Yang Yang, you seem to have grown taller?”

Xie Yang was about to answer when Qiu Xing took a step forward and spoke in a strange manner. “20 years old and still growing. The developmental period is really late.”

Xie Yang and Mother Qiu both stared at Qiu Xing.

“……” Qiu Xing bowed his head and poured himself a cup of tea. He took a sip and pretended to be calm. 

“Auntie, I really did grow taller. “ Xie Yang looked at Mother Qiu while naturally walking to Qiu Xing’s side and sitting down. He took the tea that Qiu Xing had just drank and took a sip. Then he put down the tea cup and raised his hand to undo the scarf around his neck.

Qiu Xing lowered his head to stare at the tea cup in front of him that had been ‘stained’ by Xie Yang. His Adam’s apple moved and he turned to Xie Yang. “You…”

“What is it?” Xie Yang put down his scarf and looked at Qiu Xing. Then he laughed and leaned over to help undo Qiu Xing’s scarf. “Why don’t you take off the scarf? The heating in the room is so strong. Aren’t you hot?” He intimately helped Qiu Xing take off the scarf. Then he helped straighten Qiu Xing’s collar and his fingers seemed to accidentally touch Qiu Xing’s Adam’s apple.

Qiu Xing instantly straightened. Mother Qiu and Xie Yang stared at Qiu Xing again. Xie Yang asked, “What’s the matter?” 

“……” Qiu Xing stiffened. He glanced at his mother before saying, “Nothing, I’m going to the bathroom.” Then he turned and strode away.
