Ailment

A sweet girl with an eating disorder x a rabid dog He Sui was the most notorious rabid dog on Nanshui Street: ruthless, crazed, and always covered in blood. People went out of their way to avoid him. Someone cursed him. "Your dad's a junkie, and your mom sleeps around. I never expected you to be any better." He Sui was crouching at the side of the street. Hearing this, he tossed away his cigarette butt and stood up along with the pale smoke. The other person hurriedly rolled up the car window in fright. "Does that help?" The boy's black hair whipped in the wind, wild and unrestrained. Bang! With a loud crash, he jumped onto the hood and smashed the windshield with an iron bar. Grabbing the man's collar, he dragged him out and pinned him on the hood, beating him as he slowly grinned. "Go on, tell me. Now, which of us is more noble?" He Sui's hands were injured and covered in blood. Zhou Nian was passing by with her drawing board. She eyed the boy in white, his clothes stained with blood, and cautiously approached. In a soft voice, she asked, "C-could I draw you?" He Sui: ? Is she crazy? "Idiot." That was the first thing He Sui ever said to her. Zhou Nian didn't get angry. She pulled out a bright orange tangerine and placed it in his bloodstained hand, smiling sweetly at the boy, dimples faintly showing. "Sorry, I interrupted you." He Sui looked at the tangerine in his hand, his throat tightening. A moment later, he fled. Zhou Nian latched onto him, going to his alley every few days to wait for him. He Sui got fed up. He cornered her against a wall and gripped her chin hard. He said slowly, word by word, "You're fucking annoying. Do you know that?" Zhou Nian's eyes welled with tears from the pain. Looking at the boy's dark, brooding eyes, she said, "He Sui, you hurt me." He Sui was done for. He'd meant to punch her and tell her to stop bothering him. So how did he end up awkwardly lowering his guard and explaining that he hadn't actually used much force? It was over. He'd fallen for her. Later, when He Sui was at his most indulgent toward Zhou Nian, he was as docile as a tamed wolf in front of her. "Nian Nian, you can draw me however you like. I'll do whatever you want." - At the worst point of Zhou Nian's eating disorder, she lost all five senses and went blind. By then, He Sui had risen to become a top-tier star. He shone brightly, becoming the ideal man in the eyes of countless young women. No one remembered the rabid dog from Nanshui Street anymore. No one remembered Zhou Nian from the beginning of the story, either. Not even He Sui. #Top-tier star He Sui takes a temporary leave, reason unknown #He Sui vanishes without a trace He Sui returned to that little town, back to Nanshui Street, and found Zhou Nian, the woman he had forgotten. Holding a bowl, he knelt by Zhou Nian's bed. "Nian Nian, I'm back." His hand trembled as he held the porcelain spoon. "Will you open your mouth for me?" "...Get lost." "I'll leave as long as you'll eat." Who benefited from this salvation? Maybe it was that tangerine, wrapped in plastic wrap and kept on the third shelf of his fridge until it rotted. [My thirteenth-level illness has no cure. Nian Nian, will you save me, or destroy me?] He Sui I'll Still Miss You Bai Li deeply regretted opening the door to that consulting room. The man at the desk His white coat, silver-rimmed glasses, and cool, handsome face were all exactly like her ex-boyfriend's. Seven years ago, she'd dumped him hard. Bai Li steadied her breathing and sat down at the desk, feigning calm as she handed over her appointment card. "Hello, Doctor Shen." She didn't even dare say, "Long time no see." Shen Jinyan was even colder than she'd expected. He took her appointment card and asked blandly, "What's bothering you?" Bai Li: "Lately, I've been feeling a tightness in my chest." He stood up with his stethoscope. Shen Jinyan stopped in front of her. The diaphragm and his hand both settled over her heart, pressing down gently. He listened for more than ten seconds. "Miss," he asked nonchalantly, "are you nervous?" Bai Li looked perfectly unbothered. "I'm not nervous." Shen Jinyan: "If you're not nervous, why is your heart beating so fast?" In that instant, Bai Li's regret reached its limit. That same day, during rounds, a fellow nurse noticed that Shen Jinyan was unusually distracted. She had to remind him several times, "Director Shen, you're holding your stethoscope the wrong way again..." - Just hearing your heartbeat has already thrown me off my game for seven years. Isn't that pathetic? I'll still miss you. Theme: Those who have a god don't need flowers.
