After Li Peifeng left the office, he headed straight to the Physical Education College's experimental building, while sending a WeChat message to Wu Wenyue:
"I'm almost there!"
Starbucks doesn't hire a vibe crew, they definitely don't pay you just to sit around.
Capitalists aren't that generous.
It's just a joke widely circulated online, Starbucks even used it as marketing. Li Peifeng said it just to act poor and find an excuse to sneak away.
...
The experimental building of Beihua Normal University of Physical Education stood aside, in a hidden corner that sunlight couldn't reach, where a pair of men and women seemed to be involved in some clandestine activities.
A half minute later, Wu Wenyue was holding a blood-sample needle full of blood in one hand, and grudgingly took a bottle of Mizone with a pale yellow liquid filling over half of it in the other hand, and worriedly asked, "You didn't pee outside the bottle, did you?"
"Nope!"
Li Peifeng shook his head firmly: "Absolutely not!"
"Alright, get out!"
"Hey, when will the results be out?"
"Soon, I'll let you know."
Wu Wenyue pulled out a black plastic bag from her pocket, packed the bottle into the bag, cautiously peeked outside, and seeing no one around, she briskly walked into the experimental building.
Exactly, Li Peifeng came out just to let Wu Wenyue use the laboratory equipment to get his blood and urine tested.
The laboratory of sports biochemistry at the Physical Education College is well-equipped, not only meeting the biochemical experimental teaching needs of the sports rehabilitation major, but also capable of multiple index test analyses of human blood and urine.
Wu Wenyue, being a master's student in sports physiology and neurobiology, is also skilled at operating these two tests.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Wu Wenyue returned to the apartment with the test report, looking serious.
"There's indeed a little problem."
Li Peifeng took those two reports, glancing at them, seeing terms and numbers he didn't understand, such as urine occult blood, bilirubin, urine bilirubinogen, negative positive, leukocytes, erythrocytes…
"I don't get it!"
Li Peifeng simply handed the report back: "Just tell me, what's the issue?"
"Don't bother with the urinalysis, it's normal, the issue is with the blood test."
Wu Wenyue took out one of them, saying: "Hematocrit, plasma viscosity, fibrinogen, these three are much lower in you than in ordinary people, even lower than marathon runners!"
"What does that mean?"
Wu Wenyue explained: "This condition often appears in athletes or individuals doing heavy physical labor, because they often exercise a lot, increasing plasma volume significantly, so these three values are lower. According to my estimate, since you work out often, it's fine for those three to be a bit low in the blood routine, but being this low isn't quite normal."
Li Peifeng puzzled: "So, the better the physique, the lower they are?"
"Not necessarily."
Hesitantly, Wu Wenyue said: "But it indeed helps to reduce blood flow resistance, speed up the flow, facilitate the removal of nutrients, hormones and metabolites, also beneficial for thermoregulation and heat dissipation during intense exercise..."
After listening for a long time, Li Peifeng understood, basically his body has no major issues, he can still go to the hospital in the future, without worrying about being considered an alien by the doctor, so that's settled, the rest doesn't matter!
Li Peifeng waved his hand repeatedly: "If there's nothing, help me shut the door, I need to write."
Wu Wenyue looked at him, turned to close the room door, yet didn't leave, she sat by the bed, moved the swivel chair to let Li Peifeng face her, spoke sincerely and tactfully:
"Given things we did last night and this morning, I'm a bit confused about how our relationship should develop next, so... shouldn't we have a good talk?"
Four eyes met, more expressive than a thousand words.
Wu Wenyue was silent, waiting for Li Peifeng to respond.
Li Peifeng was silent, thinking, thinking about the three thousand ways to die after having a girlfriend and still freeloading off another woman.
The two were quiet for a long time, Wu Wenyue sighed and spoke up: "Are you worried about Xu Manning?"
"No."
"Then you don't like me, and really just want to be friends with me."
"I do like you."
"Then you just haven't had enough fun all these years."
"No!"
"Then what on earth are you hesitating about?"
Li Peifeng sighed deeply: "Liking someone too much means being reluctant to date them, and I have lots of problems, I'm afraid of delaying you..."
"Damn, and you're actually using such a classic breakup excuse on me?"
Li Peifeng was helpless: "The fact is, something happened to me unexpectedly, I've changed, now this broken me is unworthy of such a perfect you."
"Sorry, I'm not worth your wait all these years."
"..."
Wu Wenyue's facial expression was clearly struggling to hold, she smiled with clenched teeth: "So what do you mean? Make it clear, I don't want this unclear relationship."
Li Peifeng struggled to speak: "It should be clear, this unclear relationship... makes me embarrassed to ask you for rent."
"You're not saying you did all this just to save rent..."
"Slap!!"
Wu Wenyue swung her arm, delivering a crisp slap on the spot, then grabbed Li Peifeng's neck and began to bite at his carotid artery, gnawing and mumbling angrily: "You beast, you're dead meat today! I'll eliminate a big harm for Beihua Normal University!!!"
"Then stop talking crap, see you on the bed!"
Angered by a slap and a bite, Li Peifeng also got mad, he hugged Wu Wenyue's body for a throw, both fell straight onto the bed, then they started tearing at each other's clothes...
Whatever relationship it is, just let it be for now.
"Knock knock ~ knock knock!"
The knocking got stronger, echoing from the living room.
"Did you hear that knock?" Li Peifeng was somewhat unsure: "Is there someone outside?"
"Who would come find you at your place?" Wu Wenyue's gaze sharpened: "Didn't you say you'd cut off from those women?!"
Li Peifeng was puzzled but a bit guilty: "I did cut off, but there are still a few who want to revisit... Wait, they would call me in advance."
"It's me, open the door!"
The knocker seemed impatient, directly calling through the door, and the voice was immensely familiar to both of them...
"Manning's here!"
Wu Wenyue's face drastically changed: "Quick, hide!!!"
Li Peifeng drew a cold breath: "Let me hide? You damn got it backward, didn't you?!!"
