Chapter 151 Careful Comfort
Chapter 151 Careful Comfort
After a while, Hoshino Hitomi added in a subtle voice, ordering the four people to leave in a rather tactful and reserved tone:
"You guys go back first, I want to be alone..."
Hagiwara Kenji had already put away the faint smile on his face and asked in an unclear tone:
"Does Hitomi-chan really want us to go back?"
The girl, curled up in the quilt, was silent for a moment when she heard this, and then responded with a faint "hmm".
Kenji Hagiwara couldn't help but sigh softly, but didn't leave the ward. Instead, he sat on her bed without saying a word.
He reached out his hand and carefully stroked the girl's thin back through the thin quilt, trying to give her some warmth and comfort.
With every touch, Kenji Hagiwara could feel the other person's faint sobs and tremors, which made his heart heavier.
Rei Furuya stood beside the bed, listening quietly to the sobs that were so faint that they were almost imperceptible.
Every sound was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart deeply.
He felt as if his heart was being tightly grasped by a huge and ruthless hand. He was unable to breathe and the pain was unbearable.
He frowned and took heavy steps forward, approaching the bed.
Then, he gently persuaded her in a very gentle voice: "Xiaotong, stop making trouble. You will easily get yourself depressed if you do this. Besides, you asked us to leave. Do you want us to leave you here alone to cry?"
"If it were you, would you be able to be so cruel as to leave?"
The ward was silent, with only the intermittent sobbing sounds echoing in the air, which was heartbreaking.
Zhu Fu Jingguang stared at Hoshino Hitomi motionlessly, his eyes revealing endless concern and heartache.
He just stared at her quietly, as if time had stopped.
After a long while, Zhu Fu Jingguang slowly came back to his senses. He picked up a few strawberries beside him, carefully cut them into delicate heart shapes, and gently placed them on the plate.
Then he picked up a knife from the table and began to carve the rose with full concentration. His hands were skillful and his movements were deft, and each cut was just right, not too much or too little.
After a short while, a lifelike rose appeared before my eyes.
Finally, Zhu Fu Jingguang placed the beautiful rose on the plate, which contrasted with the heart-shaped strawberries, creating a warm and romantic picture.
Soon, Hoshino Hitomi was tired of crying and finally decided to get out of bed and slowly sat up on the hospital bed.
There was a strange red at the corners of the girl's eyes, and two shallow dried tear marks hung on her fair and clean cheeks.
The originally smooth and fluffy black long curly hair now looks a little messy, yet still beautiful, and instead adds a bit of cuteness and playfulness.
Her long and delicate eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, casting a hint of sadness on her delicate face, making her already extraordinarily beautiful appearance even more pitiful and beautiful, so beautiful that it took one's breath away.
The moment Hoshino Hitomi looked up, she met the gazes of the four people beside her who were staring at her. She looked away in panic, sniffed lightly, and said angrily:
"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen other people cry?!"
The girl was like a kitten with its fur standing on end. Her voice was soft and when she got angry, she had no killing power at all.
Kenji Hagiwara, who was sitting next to her, couldn't help but chuckle, then stretched out his arms and hugged her into his broad and warm arms.
"I have, but I've never seen anyone...who looks this good even after crying like Hitomi-chan."
"But Tong-chan, please cry less in the future. Seeing you cry just now, my heart is broken."
He spoke naturally and ambiguously. As he spoke, he gently reached out his hand and tenderly tucked a few strands of her scattered hair behind her small and delicate ear.
This action seems casual, but it seems to contain endless meaning.
At this moment, the distance between them became so close, so close that people had an illusion that they were doing something unknown and unspeakable.
She could even feel the other person's warm breath on her cheek, causing a slight shudder.
Hoshino Hitomi was slightly stunned, and then she felt her face getting hot. She first distanced herself from him without making a sound, and then she blushed and scolded him:
"Kenji is so... corny! Also, there are differences between men and women, don't get so close to me!"
Hagiwara Kenji pitifully condemned, "Hey... Hitomi-chan is so excessive! I only came over to hug Hitomi-chan because I saw that she was so weak that she was about to collapse any second."
"Besides, it doesn't seem appropriate for Tong-chan to say that there are differences between men and women. We just kissed yesterday..."
Before Hagiwara Ken could finish his words, a soft, white hand covered his mouth.
Hoshino Hitomi's face flushed as she warned softly:
"Shut up! If you dare to say it, you will..."
The girl's voice suddenly stopped, and her heartbeat instantly accelerated like a frightened deer.
She only felt that the palm of her hand seemed to be hit by a hot electric current, and the source of the current was actually the other person's warm and moist tongue tip, which touched her lightly like a dragonfly touching the water.
This touch was like the brush of a feather or a gentle breeze, and immediately stirred up a strange tingling sensation in her heart.
Hoshino Hitomi's face turned red, her eyes widened in disbelief, and then she reflexively gave the other party a right hook.
"You, you pervert!"
Hagiwara Kenji was immediately knocked off the bed, then stood up with difficulty. He raised his hand to touch his left face which was hit with some pain, but still said with a playful smile:
"I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself...I didn't expect to scare Hitomi-chan."
Hearing this, the corners of Hoshino Hitomi's mouth twitched slightly, and she couldn't help but complain in her heart:
[Any normal person would be scared, okay? ! Who would suddenly lick someone else's palm? ]
[I'm afraid that Kenji Hagiwara is just like Jin Kurosawa, he also has a masochistic nature]
Thinking of Kurosawa Jin, Hoshino Hitomi couldn't help but feel a little scared.
After all, the 90% black value is not just talk...
At this moment, a gentle male voice broke her worries.
"Xiaotong, have some strawberries."
Zhu Fu Jingguang brought a plate of strawberries and walked in front of Hoshino Hitomi.
Hoshino Hitomi smiled slightly and responded softly: "Okay, thank you Jingguang."
Hoshino Hitomi then lowered her eyes to look at the plate of heart-shaped strawberries and a few rose-shaped strawberries that Zhu Fu Jingguang brought. Her eyes lit up instantly and she praised generously:
"That's amazing! Is this what you just cut, Jingguang? It looks so good~"
Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled and explained in a gentle voice:
"Thank you for the compliment, Xiaotong. It was indeed me who cut the roses at the beginning, and then Zero took the initiative to help carve a few roses."
Kenji Hagiwara was not to be outdone and took out two cut oranges. The flesh inside the oranges was divided into exquisite small cubes and was thoughtfully provided with a fork.
"Hitomi-chan, Jinpei and I just cut some fruit, why don't you try some~"
