The Veterinarian (1v1) (H) - 10

Chapter 10 - I really want to see it.

The lighter made a "click" sound.

 

Then the man's long breath came from the phone receiver.

 

He's smoking.

 

Bai Li’s heart trembled.

 

Her whole mind was in chaos, and the only thing she could do was hold the phone tightly and listen carefully to the voice on the other end of the phone.

 

Shen An took two puffs of cigarette and asked her, "Why aren’t you talking?"

 

Bai Li replied with a trembling voice: "...No, I don't know what to say."

 

A man's laughter bursting from his throat came from the receiver, accompanied by a hoarse voice, which seemed quite bewitching in the silent night.

 

"Did you go home and put ice?" He chewed on his cigarette and spoke in a muffled and low voice, which was a bit sultry.

 

Bai Li’s ears felt itchy. She covered her red earlobes and whispered back: "...Yeah."

 

"Take a photo and let me see." He said.

 

"..."

 

Bai Li’s hole body was on fire. Without waiting for rejection, she heard him say, "I'll add you, send the photos."

 

"..."

 

She hurriedly checked WeChat, and sure enough she saw a red reminder in the new friends column.

 

Before Shen An hung up the phone, he finished smoking, took out another cigarette and bit it in his mouth, with his eyelids drooping, staring at the traffic on the road casually.

 

Bai Li shook her finger and nodded in agreement, then whispered to the other end of the phone, "...Okay."

 

Shen An responded softly: "Good."

 

For a moment, neither of them spoke, but neither hung up the phone.

 

After a moment, Shen An chuckled, "I'm going back, hang up first."

 

After hanging up the phone, Bai Li covered her red face and stared at the call log on her phone for a long time.

 

Until a message came from WeChat.

 

Shen An: "Photos."

 

Bai Li hurriedly took out her mobile phone and pointed it at her forehead to take a picture. Under the light, the area seemed to be swollen even more.

 

Shen An had already gotten into the taxi and clicked on the photo. He could only see her swollen forehead and the rest of her face could not be seen at all.

 

Shen An: "If the swelling hasn't subsided tomorrow, come see me at the clinic."

 

Li: "No, thank you."

 

Shen An: "Then I'll go find you."

 

Li: "…"

 

It was not difficult to guess her shocked and nervous expression on the other end of the phone. There was a smile on Shen An’s dark lips. He clicked at her profile picture, but found that her circle of friends could not be seen.

 

"..."

 

A laugh escaped from his lips, he chewed on his cigarette, and typed to ask her: "Block me in Moments?"

 

Li: "...I thought you didn't look."

 

Shen An stopped typing and replied with a voice message.

 

Bai Li opened the voice button with trembling fingers, and a low-pitched voice came from the external receiver:

 

"You guessed wrong, I really want to see it."

 

Bai Li's ears went numb, and her whole back trembled involuntarily.

 

She rubbed her itchy ears, then blushed and opened the permissions of her circle of friends to him. During this time, her fingers were shaking because she was too nervous.

 

Bai Li’s Moments is very clean. Most of them are photos of the sun, bright and warm sunshine, and sunflowers. Some of them have captions.

 

She posts to Moments once every two or three months, but the frequency is too low. As a result, all the Moments she has saved over the years are seen by Shen An in less than an hour.

 

Shen An downloaded and listened to the playlists she shared, and even added them to his collection.

 

After Shen An got home, he took off his clothes, opened the refrigerator and drank a large bottle of water. Then he went into the bathroom to take a shower. When he came out, he was only wearing a pair of shorts.

 

After sitting on the sofa for a while, he drank some water and then went to the balcony to water the flowers.

 

After washing his hands, he picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table and looked at it. It was densely packed with messages. After scrolling through it for a long time, he found Bai Li. He simply pinned Bai Li’s dialog box to the top.

 

Li: "Can I treat you to takeout tomorrow? I'll deliver it to your clinic."

 

Shen An touched the tip of his tongue to the roof of his mouth and couldn't help but want to laugh.

 

Shen An: "No."

 

Thinking of Bai Li's nervous appearance in the hospital, he lowered his eyes and typed another line:

 

"Don't worry, I’m not gonna look at you."

 

After waiting for a while, Bai Li’s dialog box showed "Typing", but no message came in.

 

Shen An chuckled and sent a voice message: "Go to bed early."

 

He didn't know that someone would listen to all the messages he sent over and over in the silent night, and he didn't know that someone would lose sleep all night because of "treating him to dinner."

 

The only thing Shen An knew was that he dreamed of Bai Li again that night.

 

He took off her hat, moistened her lips with ice cubes, and looked down at her anxious expression, lowering his head and sucking her lips.
