Chapter 283 Is there any progress?
"I..." Si Cizhan wanted to say it was nothing, but his words suddenly changed. He paused before continuing, "My leg hit the sofa, it hurts a little."
"?"
Jiang Yan paused as she took out the food and glanced at Si Cizhan, who had come around to sit down in front of her on the sofa. The confusion in her words was obvious: "Why?"
This was asking him why he suddenly bumped into the sofa. Obviously Si Ci Zhan was very familiar with her residence. He didn't bump into it when he first moved in, but bumped into it now. This was totally unacceptable.
Si Cizhan told Jiang Yan about the little he could see, and only then did Jiang Yan understand that he was limited by his vision.
Vision has been restored, but the patient cannot see anything clearly again, which interferes with the brain's processing of information about the surrounding environment.
Normally Jiang Yan wouldn't have taken it to heart since Si Ci Zhan didn't fall down after bumping into the sofa. But hearing Si Ci Zhan say that it hurt was a very unusual thing, which made her wonder if the space force potion had other side effects. However, she couldn't find out, so she walked over and half-knelt beside him, lifted up his trouser leg, and checked where he had been hit.
Si Cizhan said this to make Jiang Yan care about him, or to feel sorry for him, but he didn't expect her to react like this. He hurriedly grabbed her hand and said, "It's not that serious. There's no need to check."
"Really?" Jiang Yan was puzzled. "But you said it hurt?"
Si Cizhan felt guilty and didn't know how to explain. Jiang Yan quickly grabbed his ankle and pushed up the dark green military trouser leg with one hand.
After checking, there was indeed nothing wrong.
"Are you feeling any other discomfort? After a week, maybe you should go to the medical department for another check-up." Jiang Yan stood up, took out a tissue, wiped her hands, and asked him in a calm and somewhat indifferent voice.
Si Cizhan's face was stained with a thin layer of red. He didn't know if it was because he was too guilty or for some other reason. After listening to Jiang Yan's research-like questioning, he finally realized that Jiang Yan was suspecting that there were side effects that had not been checked out. He quickly explained:
"I don't feel any discomfort. This little bit of pain is completely negligible to me. Any minor injury from training is more serious than this. I just... want to tell you this fact?"
Jiang Yan was silent.
She really didn't expect that Si Ci Zhan just wanted to tell her the simple fact that "it hurts a little when I bumped into the sofa", rather than that this sentence had another meaning that seemed to have changed in the body.
If this matter were put on Si Cizhan, it would obviously be an exaggeration.
"I'm sorry to have worried you." Sensing her long silence, Si Cizhan spoke nervously. He stood up and held out his hand, wanting to lead her to the table. However, since he couldn't see clearly and was worried about making a fool of himself by accidentally bumping into the sofa, he could only whisper beside her, "Shall we go eat now?"
Making a fuss out of a molehill?
Jiang Yan looked up at Si Ci Zhan, and some memories of the past suddenly came back to her. This might not be the first time.
Jiang Yan blurred into a hazy color in his eyes. She seemed to be making some movements, but Si Cizhan couldn't see clearly. Then he heard Jiang Yan ask him:
"Since you don't take this level of pain seriously, you generally wouldn't bring it up intentionally. In high school, you lied to me in the hospital about being angry and hitting people. Is that the same reason you're specifically emphasizing your pain to me now?"
Si Cizhan was stunned, recalling something that seemed to have happened a long time ago. At that time, Jiang Yan failed to get an answer from him, and then classified him as a bad person like a liar.
He couldn't help but laugh. Although he couldn't see the person in front of him clearly, Jiang Yan could see that his eyes were filled with his own reflection as he lowered his head. He said, "You still remember what happened back then."
Jiang Yan asked him: "Did you like me then?"
Si Ci Zhan was caught off guard by this question and seemed to freeze for a moment. Then his entire face visibly turned red. He couldn't help but emphasize, "It shouldn't be. At that time, I just thought you... you were a little cute, and I wanted to tease you."
The voice at the back became quieter. Jiang Yan seemed not to have heard clearly and asked again: "What?"
Si Cizhan repeated it with a red face, and Jiang Yan replied calmly: "I heard it clearly just now."
Si Cizhan: “……?”
"You lied to me?"
"Ah."
"You..." He suddenly felt both amused and annoyed. The heat on his face made his entire body seem to be burning. Finally, he uttered a familiar question, "Why did you lie to me?"
Once upon a time, Jiang Yan asked him the same question in the hospital.
Jiang Yan said, "Maybe I think you're cute too?" Her voice didn't sound emotional at all, and it didn't sound like she really thought he was cute.
This is his answer to Jiang Yan now.
Si Ci Zhan pursed his lips in embarrassment, trying to make his expression calmer. He vaguely noticed that her eyes were always on him. Si Ci Zhan's palms were sweating. He didn't know what she was looking at. It couldn't be that she suddenly realized that he was handsome and kept staring at him?
His heartbeat kept rising under Jiang Yan's gaze. Even with all his rationality, he couldn't lower the temperature on his face. After a moment of silent silence, Si Cizhan said:
"I want to eat."
Jiang Yan reached out and pulled him to the table. Si Cizhan held her hand and followed behind. Looking at the moving figures and colors in front of him, the smile on his lips finally rose without any scruples.
Perhaps there has been progress between them?
