Half a month after Shen Yu was taken away, Gu Yingyi forced himself not to go near Liang Ruizhe’s house. He was afraid that he would not be satisfied with just looking at him from afar, and he was also afraid that he would run into Shen Yu one day and scare him again.

　　He worked intensively every day and didn’t dare to allow himself a moment’s rest, because as soon as he had free time, his longing for Shen Yu would surge out like crazy.

　　That feeling was really unbearable. Every day when Shen Yu was not by his side felt like a year.

　　He asked a private detective to report Shen Yu’s situation to him every day. He remained extremely wary of Liang Ruizhe. For the sake of Shen Yu’s health, he could tolerate Liang Ruizhe taking him away, which was already the biggest concession. He would not allow Liang Ruizhe to do anything out of line.

　　Gu Yingyi picked up the only framed photo of him and Shen Yu that was on the desk in the study.

　　Through the glass, Gu Yingyi’s eyes were tender as he used his fingertips to gently stroke Shen Yu, who was leaning closely against him with a smiling face in the photo, and his thoughts drifted far away.

　　……

　　Gu Yingyi stayed in the study for the whole night. He finished all the work and came out in the morning with a tired look on his face.

　　While eating breakfast, the empty seat opposite him made Gu Yingyi feel dazed again. He lowered his eyes, suppressed the unspeakable sour feeling in his heart, and the food in his mouth became like chewing wax.

　　While eating breakfast, Gu Yingyi received a call from the hospital.

　　The person on the phone said that Shen Chao’s cornea was suitable for Shen Yu, and asked Gu Yingyi whether to remove it and when.

　　Gu Yingyi sneered, “Now.”

　　Hospital.

　　In the operating room, Shen Chao’s hands and feet were tied tightly to the bed. The doctors around him were wearing sterile suits and preparing to remove his cornea.

　　Shen Chao was not mentally ill. He was not Shen Yu. Of course he knew what these people were going to do to him. He was extremely scared and screamed and struggled desperately, “Why do you want to remove my cornea? Get out! Get out!”

　　The doctors ignored his screams. With his hands and feet tied, he could only watch like a fish on the chopping board as the doctors gave him anesthesia, fixed his head with instruments, and then propped up his right eyelid.

　　The anesthesia took effect quickly. His struggles became powerless, his whole body went limp, and the frightened eyes gradually relaxed and faded. Finally, when the doctor approached him with a scalpel, darkness swallowed up the desperate Shen Chao.

　　When he woke up again, he didn’t know how much time had passed. As soon as Shen Chao opened his eyes, he noticed something was wrong with himself. His eyes, especially his right eye, were dark and he could not see anything.

　　The two hands that Gu Yingyi had nails hammered into last time were still wrapped in bandages and could no longer move flexibly.

　　His hands were shaking uncontrollably, and he panickedly touched his right eye, which could not see anything. There was a bandage on his eye at the moment. He tore it off, and could not open his eye. There was only endless darkness.

　　Out of sight, he could not see.

　　Gu Yingyi really removed his cornea.

　　”Ah!!!” Shen Chao let out a shrill and tragic scream, and then the door of the ward was pushed open.

　　The person who came was Gu Yingyi.

　　As soon as he saw Gu Yingyi, Shen Chao rushed over like crazy and grabbed Gu Yingyi’s clothes on his chest. His eyes were desperate and angry. His voice was sharp and broken, as harsh as a knife scratching on glass. “Why do you do this to me! Why?!”

　　Gu Yingyi’s eyes were gloomy and his expression was cold. He pushed Shen Chao, who was about to collapse and had one eye blind, away from him, and then dusted off his clothes, “Why? Because you owe him.”

　　Shen Chao fell to the ground and laughed at himself, “Haha, I owe him? What do I owe him?” His eyes suddenly widened, “I don’t owe him anything! He owes me! He took away everything from me!”

　　Gu Yingyi had no interest in staying here and listening to Shen Chao going crazy. He just wanted to see Shen Chao’s miserable condition. One cornea was not enough to make Shen Chao pay for everything.

　　Gu Yingyi didn’t want to even look at Shen Chao anymore and just turned around and left.

　　The once elegant and noble pianist now has both hands disabled and one eye blind. He no longer has a trace of elegance and looks even more miserable than a beggar. He stares at Gu Yingyi’s receding back with extremely resentful eyes, his nails digging into the floor.

　　He lost everything, completely lost everything. He hated Shen Yu and also hated Gu Yingyi who had deprived him of everything.

　　Why could Gu Yingyi still be with Shen Yu when he had nothing? He was unwilling to accept this and he resented both Gu Yingyi and Shen Yu.

　　Shen Chao continued to look at the direction where Gu Yingyi left, and suddenly a weird smile appeared on his face. The smile was even a little twisted, with a hint of madness. He said to himself, “Gu Yingyi, don’t even think that Shen Yu will forgive you. You can’t have an easy life…”

　　”Haha, hahaha…” After saying that, he actually burst into laughter. Such shrill and crazy laughter echoed in the empty and silent ward, making passers-by feel uncomfortable.

　　City C, Liang Ruizhe’s home.

　　In half a month, Shen Yu’s condition improved a lot. Liang Ruizhe often took him out to relax so that he could get out of the bad memories as soon as possible. Liang Ruizhe was very patient with Shen Yu and was careful and cautious in everything he did.

　　In the afternoon, Shen Yu was taking a nap, and Liang Ruizhe took this opportunity to go out to deliver goods to a merchant in the town. Shen Yu usually sleeps for more than three hours and rarely wakes up during that time.

　　In the morning, Liang Ruizhe also told Shen Yu that if he was not at home in the afternoon, he could use the phone on the table to call him. The phone had a voice function, and Liang Ruizhe had also taught him how to make a phone call, so Liang Ruizhe dared to go out without worry. But after he went out, he did not waste too much time outside. After finishing his business quickly, he rushed home.

　　Just one hour after delivering the goods, Liang Ruizhe received a call on his way home. It was the doctor who had treated him, urging him to go to the hospital for a check-up and change the medicine for the second course of treatment. Liang Ruizhe hesitated for a moment, and after seeing that there was still plenty of time, he went to the hospital.

　　The examination was done quickly, which was within Liang Ruizhe’s expectations, so he was not too surprised to see the condition continue to deteriorate, as if he had already expected this result.

　　The coughing feeling came up in his throat again, Liang Ruizhe put his fist against his mouth and coughed softly twice.

　　With no expression on his face, he casually stuffed the checklist into the bag of fruits and desserts in his hand and went home.

　　When he got home, Shen Yu had just woken up. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, hugged his pillow and slowly walked out of the bedroom, leaning against the wall. His hair was sticking up on top of his head, and he was wearing loose teddy bear pajamas. He yawned and was not awake yet. He looked silly, adorable and cute.

　　Liang Ruizhe walked over and helped him sit on the sofa in the living room. “You must be hungry. I bought you a small cake. It’s right next to you. There’s also some fruit. I’ll go wash it.”

　　Liang Ruizhe took out two peaches from the bag and went to the kitchen to wash them. Shen Yu was a little greedy and wanted to eat the cake first. He touched the bag next to him to take out the small cake, but he reached into the bag and touched a piece of paper.

　　At the same time, Liang Ruizhe came out of the kitchen after washing the fruit and just saw Shen Yu taking his check list out of the bag.

　　Hearing Liang Ruizhe’s footsteps, Shen Yu waved the paper in the air and said, “Ruizhe, what is this?”

　　Liang Ruizhe walked over and took the paper from him, saying naturally, “Nothing, just a flyer handed out on the street.”

　　Shen Yu said “oh”, because he couldn’t see, so he was curious about what it was. When Liang Ruizhe said it was a flyer, he believed it and didn’t ask any more questions. He took out the small cake and ate it with satisfaction.

　　Liang Ruizhe bought him two, one strawberry flavor and one mango flavor. Strawberry was Shen Yu’s favorite flavor, but he ate the mango first.

　　Anyway, they were all bought for him, so Liang Ruizhe didn’t care. The sun gradually set outside the window, and the beautiful sunset covered the sky, painting the sky of the entire town into a beautiful picture. He got up, rubbed Shen Yu’s head, and went to the kitchen to cook.

　　After dinner, Shen Yu sat at the table by the window, holding the strawberry cake Liang Ruizhe bought for him in his hands like a treasure. He had just eaten and was worried that he might have eaten too much. Liang Ruizhe reminded him, “We just had dinner. Can you eat the cake later?”

　　Shen Yu hesitated for a moment, then patted the stool beside him and asked Liang Ruizhe to sit over. After Liang Ruizhe sat next to him, he stuffed the cake in his hand into Liang Ruizhe’s hand and said, “This is Yu Yu’s favorite flavor. Give it to Ruizhe.”

　　Although he spoke very generously, his hands secretly stirring the clothes revealed his conflicted and reluctant mood.

　　Liang Ruizhe looked at him with amusement at his reluctance to part with the strawberry cake, “I bought this for you. I won’t eat it.”

　　Liang Ruizhe didn’t understand why Shen Yu suddenly wanted to give him his favorite cake, and then he heard Shen Yu whisper, “Because Ruizhe is good to Yu Yu, and Yu Yu also wants to be good to Ruizhe.”

　　Shen Yu’s idea was very simple, without any ambiguous meaning. He was simply expressing his gratitude to Liang Ruizhe, and his trust and gratitude for him.

　　In Shen Yu’s opinion, his favorite things are the most precious. Similarly, when he gives his most precious things to others, it also means that he truly likes the person who treats him well.

　　Liang Ruizhe’s heart moved slightly, and something indescribable flowed out of his chest and spread to his whole body. He looked at Shen Yu with deep and tender eyes. His big hand slowly stroked Shen Yu’s head and gently rubbed his hair.

　　The sun was about to set, and the colorful clouds in the sky looked like a painting painted with paint. The brilliant colors were projected onto the glass windows, reflecting the warm orange-red.

　　The soft orange light sprinkled on Shen Yu’s long eyelashes, which were as black as crow feathers. Although Shen Yu’s eyes were lifeless, they were still incredibly beautiful. The golden light enveloped them, and Liang Ruizhe suddenly had an absurd idea to let time stay at this moment forever.

　　Liang Ruizhe’s shadow was reflected in Shen Yu’s empty eyes, giving Liang Ruizhe the illusion that he was the only one in Shen Yu’s eyes at this moment.

　　The feeling was indescribable. It was the first time that Liang Ruizhe felt his heart pounding in his chest.

　　The atmosphere was so subtle and just right that Liang Ruizhe could not control himself. He lowered his eyes and slowly approached Shen Yu. Just when their lips were about to touch, Shen Yu’s voice startled Liang Ruizhe.

　　”Why does Ruizhe stay so close to Yuyu?”

　　Liang Ruizhe suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly stepped back. He lied and wiped his cheek with his thumb, “I’m wiping your face. There are grains of rice on it.”

　　When Shen Yu heard this, he wiped his face with the back of his hand. He remembered that he had wiped his mouth after dinner, so how could there be rice grains?

　　Liang Ruizhe felt a little compassion, compassion for himself for not having a healthy body, compassion for himself for encountering someone he wanted to protect but being unable to do anything.

　　They^[1]Shen Yu didn’t see it, and someone outside the window took a picture of the scene.
