TECTAC

Chapter 140

The sudden movement caused others to look over. Jing Yuanzhou didn't move from his spot. The moment Lin Yan grabbed him, he felt like there was a fire directly burning his skin. This was the first time he was seeing Lin Yan so panicked.

At first, there was still a fog of confusion in Lin Yan's eyes. Then as the surroundings became quiet, it dispersed gradually and he vaguely fell into a trance. After that, he seemed to finally realize where he was. From then on, his expression became clear.

The moment Lin Yan took back his hand, Jing Yuanzhou clearly saw a look of sorrow in his eyes that was quickly covered up. Lin Yan wrapped the fallen blanket back around his body and spoke softly in a hoarse voice. "It will be the match soon. Don't run around."

If it wasn't for the sharp trembling of the fingers holding his wrist just now, Jing Yuanzhou might've really believed such a cover-up. His eyes lowered slightly as he calmly suppressed the doubts in his heart. He smiled as he half-joked, trying to ease the atmosphere, "It's still early. Why do you look like I won't come back from buying medicine?"

However, the corners of Lin Yan's mouth lowered even further. He stared at the ground and didn't speak.

Jing Yuanzhou paused before turning to Luo Mo. "Manager Luo, I have to trouble you to go on a trip."

Luo Mo was originally watching Lin Yan with some uneasiness. Now he heard these words and came back to his senses. "Ah, okay, no problem! But... I don't know what type of medicine to buy!"

"I remember." Jing Yuanzhou touched his phone. "Wait a minute. I'll send you the name of the medicine on WeChat."

Soon after, Luo Mo's phone vibrated. He looked down at it before leaving in a hurry.

Once Luo Mo left, Jing Yuanzhou retracted his gaze. He lowered his voice and his words were obviously meant to coax Lin Yan. "Okay, I didn't go. Once the medicine is brought back, hurry up and take it. We will hurry to finish today's match and go back early."

It wasn't known what he was thinking about but Lin Yan responded in an absentminded manner. "Yes."

It was a low, hoarse voice.

Jing Yuanzhou saw Lin Yan's mental state so he took out the thermos from his bag and handed it over. "The temperature of the water should be just right. If you have an uncomfortable throat then take two sips."

Lin Yan's gaze lowered and stayed on the thermos for a long time with no focus. He was in a daze just now and felt like he had a very long and distant dream. It was two completely different scenarios but there was a clear coincidence.

The day that the captain left was also the day of the finals. The memories of the past were brought back and the days that were supposed to be forgotten suddenly became so clear. It turned out that there was still so much separation from what he 'thought he put down' to what he 'really put down.'

The pharmacy that Jing Yuanzhou mentioned was indeed not far away. Luo Mo quickly brought the medicine back. Lin Yan had long been used to self-regulation. He sat for a while and quickly adjusted his heartbeat back.

Under the attention of all the team members, he soaked the Chinese medicine powder, raised his head, and drank it.

It had to be said that this was the first time he had taken cold medicine in a way that felt like an execution. As for the other box of cold capsules, Lin Yan insisted on not taking them because he was worried about the symptoms like sleepiness that were caused by the medicine. Jing Yuanzhou couldn't persuade him and could only give up.

The rest time passed quickly. Soon, everyone got up at the reminder of the staff, carried their equipment and prepared to play.

Lin Yan's body shook uncontrollably when he got up and he held the back of the sofa to stabilize himself. He breathed out slowly, calmed his mind and walked out of the lounge.
