single stab

Soon, Jiang Xue moved to a private inpatient building deep in the hospital. It was quieter and more secluded, but the environment was no worse than before.Jiang Xue would occasionally go for a walk in the small garden in front of the building, and stayed in the ward reading books most of the time. Li Zheng probably wanted to ease the relationship with him. She didn't come here as often as before, but she still brought three meals over. , and sent someone to protect him.

The single ward is as luxurious as a high-end hotel. Jiang Xue likes to read in the recliner. The sunlight seeping in from the sunny window is clear and warm, and her mood seems to be much relieved.

He flipped a page of the book, his bright vision was suddenly covered by shadows, he raised his head, and saw the girl grinning at him from the window.

Jiang Xue: "..."

He subconsciously looked back at the door. The girl thought he was going to call bodyguards to drive him away, so she knocked on the window anxiously and looked at him eagerly.

She changed into a more normal outfit than last time, but her makeup was still thick and weird, but she unknowingly showed her big white teeth, and messy leaves were still stained on her messy hair.

Jiang Xue was defeated by her aggrieved gaze, and unscrewed the window lock.

The girl jumped in with a happy smile, and while patting her clothes, she looked around the room curiously, muttering and complaining.

"Little brother, why didn't you tell me when you changed the ward, it made me look for it for several days."

"What do you find me for?"

The girl jumped in front of him, looking at him with bright eyes.

"Little brother~ Can you tell me your number and WeChat this time! By the way! I don't know your name yet!"

Jiang Xue was so frightened by her action that she leaned back against the back of the chair, rubbing her temples helplessly.

"I told you, will you go?"

"You tell me first!"

The girl answered wittily.

Jiang Xue was so entangled by her that she couldn't help it, so she let go and told her, after the girl saved it, she put the mobile phone in the skull bag as a treasure, then dragged a small bench, and sat down beside him.

Jiang Xue: ...What's the matter with this feeling of wanting to have a long talk?

"What's your name, little brother?"

the girl asked eagerly.

"...Jiang Xue."

The light in the girl's eyes became brighter, and a flush of excitement appeared on her face.

"My God! People are so good-looking, and even their names are so different!"

"The little brother, do you remember my name?"

Jiang Xue, who wanted to pretend that she didn't remember, was a little embarrassed by her obsessive stare like a girl, she lowered her eyes and said.

"If I remember correctly, your name is Yuan Peipei."

"(≧≦)/!!!"

Yuan Peipei fiercely covered her red face, and ran around the room excitedly, looking extremely happy.

After a while, she cheekily rubbed over again to find her presence.

"What are you looking at, little brother?"

Jiang Xue closed the pages of the book and showed her the cover, Yuan Peipei let out a half-understanding sound, scratched her head and smirked.

"Although I don't understand it, it feels so powerful."

Jiang Xue looked at her unruly attire and asked her doubts.

"You look like you're still in school, why are you dressed like this?"

Yuan Peipei looked down at her non-mainstream clothes with rivets and holes, and retorted confidently.

"My friends say it looks good in this way!"

She paused, looked down at herself hesitantly, and looked at Jiang Xue nervously, her voice became much weaker.

"Huh?... Is it really not good-looking?"

"Not for you."

Jiang Xue said euphemistically.

Yuan Peipei stood on the spot at a loss, with a dazed and frustrated expression on her face, and she sat on the small bench sullenly.

"But I don't know how to wear it. My father refuses to buy clothes with me, and the school uniform is so ugly. They all say I look good like this..."

Jiang Xue was startled, her brows furrowed slightly.

"you……"

The mobile phone in Yuan Peipei's bag suddenly rang, it was the theme song of a cartoon animation, she became flustered, took out her mobile phone and pressed the phone off, opened the window, and crawled outside with ease.

She suddenly fell down with an ouch, and Jiang Xue hurried to the window, only to see her standing up with a loose leaf on her head, and waved to herself vigorously.

"Goodbye, little brother! I will come to play with you again tomorrow!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran away in a panic, her back was like a childish little sparrow, fluttering away from Jiang Xue's sight.

Later, Yuan Peipei would often come to him, and sometimes complained that there were too many bodyguards around her. She squatted for a long time before finding a chance to climb in through the window, and sometimes she would bring a bunch of messy snacks like offering treasures, and generously shared them with him. Jiang Xue.

Most of the time, Yuan Peipei was talking happily, and Jiang Xue was listening quietly, listening to her complaining about the teacher's summer homework leaving too much, listening to her shyly mentioning the boy in the next class she had a crush on, and listening to her talk about how to make friends with her. When friends go to Internet cafes and bars together, she is like a naive and vigorous young sapling, full of joyful curiosity and love for the world.

The days alone in the ward became lively, but Jiang Xue didn't have the idea of ​​driving her away. He didn't know how the bodyguards left behind by Li Zheng had been ignorant of this, but at the same time, he also selfishly hoped that Yuan Peipei would never leave. will be discovered by others.

She's kind of like her old self.

After seeing the girl jump out of the window as usual, Li Zhengcai walked in from the main entrance of the hospital building in the distance.

He pushed open the door and saw Jiang Xue, who was looking out of the window, immediately lowered her head, and turned a page of the book to cover up.

"Are you hungry? I bought your favorite shortbread."

He walked over and put the bag on the table, took out a shortbread and handed it to Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue took it and took small bites, her brows and eyes stretched out because she ate something she liked.

After eating, Li Zheng held his hand and wiped it with a wet towel, but Jiang Xue didn't pull it back, she spread her fingers meekly and let him move, silent.

After throwing the wet wipes into the trash can beside him, Li Zheng raised his head, stared at his bright red lips, and said softly.

"You are about to start school, let's go home and live."

Jiang Xue froze, pursed her lips tightly, seemed very nervous, unconsciously curled her fingers, lowered her head and did not speak.

Li Zheng rubbed his protruding knuckles, grabbed his lips and kissed him lightly, then leaned over and rubbed against his neck, saying pitifully like a big pug.

"Daughter-in-law, let's go home. I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I promise to change my past, really."

Jiang Xue withdrew her hand and said nothing.

When he acquiesced, Li Zhengquan took the opportunity to hug him tightly, smelling the faint fragrance of his body with nostalgia, he couldn't help but feel distracted.He hasn't dared to touch Jiang Xue much since he was hospitalized, and now the suppressed flame in his heart is about to burst out again.

Jiang Xue pushed him sensitively, and gave the order to evict the guest lightly.

"I'm going to read a book."

Li Zheng settled his restless mind, relaxed his strength, rubbed his head, kissed the corner of his lips, and said with satisfaction.

"Then pack up, we'll be home in a while."

Jiang Xue looked at him suddenly, the shock and nervousness on her face disappeared in a flash.

"So fast?"

He paused, his unnatural tone carried some imperceptible discussion.

"Go back tomorrow."

"also."

Li Zheng didn't seem to notice anything, and agreed with a grin.

The next day, Jiang Xueli walked up and down by the window, with a look of anxiety and restlessness on her face, she couldn't even read the book in her hand, as if she was waiting for someone.

At the time when Yuan Peipei appeared every day, his eyes were glued to the window, and when he finally saw the cheerful figure jumping up and down, he was unconsciously relieved, and in a blink of an eye there was another shock, his whole heart They all mentioned the throat.

Yuan Peipei stared vigilantly at the tall man standing in front of him.

"who are you?"

The man stared at her immature face, rubbed his chin and asked.

"Yuan Peipei?"

Yuan Peipei took a step back, looking back as if to confirm the escape route, but she was unwilling to be cut off, and grinned with thorns all over her body.

"How do you know my name?! Is it Dad's person or is he coming to kidnap me?"

"You think so much at such a young age."

The man muttered to himself, his scrutinizing eyes swept her from head to toe, as if he was considering something, and then solemnly declared his sovereignty.

"Jiang Xue is my daughter-in-law, don't try to get her ideas, if you agree, I will let you in."

Yuan Peipei pointed like thunder, stammering and pointing at him.

"You, what are you talking about! Little brother, he is a man!"

"I know."

The man answered as a matter of course, then squatted down and looked at her with a raised smile to dispel some hostility, and his handsome face was even a little charming.

"My wife is shy, so she didn't tell you. You have to keep it a secret."

Yuan Peipei's three views were all baptized, and she let out a dumbfounded oh.

The man thought for a while, and his deep voice became much gentler.

"He doesn't have many friends. If you still want to continue playing with him, I'll take you in. If you don't want to, just leave. Just pretend that you haven't seen him before, and you are not allowed to approach him again."

Yuan Peipei subconsciously let out another oh, and it took a few seconds to react, and retorted angrily.

"Why are you driving me away! I'm not leaving! I'm going to play with my little brother! Hmph!"

After speaking, she held her head high and ran in through the main entrance of the building.

"Fuck... When did I say I was going to drive her away?"

The man smiled and glanced at the corner of his clothes exposed in the window not far away, and heeled in.

Yuan Peipei climbed through the windows so many times, but this was the first time she entered through the main entrance of the ward.She followed behind Li Zheng and kept poking her head. After Li Zheng stopped at the door of a ward, she couldn't wait to open the door and rush in.

"Little brother, I'm coming!"

Jiang Xue stood at the window and stared at the door, with a panicked look as if facing a formidable enemy.He looked happy when he saw her, but his face turned pale when he saw Li Zheng following in. He subconsciously grabbed Yuan Peipei's arm and blocked her behind.

Li Zheng was stunned by his defensive consciousness, and he choked for a long time before showing a nonchalant smile, Chong Yuan Peipei raised his chin, pretending not to know.

"She said she came to visit you. Is she your friend?"

Both Jiang Xue and Yuan Peipei were stunned, and then Jiang Xue quickly replied "Yes", the tense lines relaxed inch by inch, and regained their composure.

"Oh, then you guys talk first, I'll go through the discharge procedures."

Li Zheng kindly gave them a chance to get along. After the door closed, Jiang Xue immediately asked Yuan Peipei.

"What did he tell you outside just now?"

Yuan Peipei stared blankly at his overly nervous appearance, and for some reason swallowed the words that had come to her mouth.

"It was he who asked me why I came here. I said I came to see you, and then he said...that you were friends and just brought me in."

She clearly found that Jiang Xue was obviously relieved, as if she had escaped the catastrophe from the hanging sword by chance, her demeanor became much more relaxed, like a harborer whose secret had not been discovered.

Yuan Peipei rarely lied, but she didn't regret lying to Jiang Xue this time.Because she had a vague premonition that if she really confessed to Jiang Xue what the man said to her, Jiang Xue might never want to see her again.

More than an hour later, Li Zheng, who had completed the hospitalization procedures, interrupted their conversation, Yuan Peipei reluctantly left, and Jiang Xue sat by the bed in a daze.

After packing his luggage, Li Zheng walked to him and patted him on the shoulder lightly.

"Let's go."

Jiang Xue woke up like a dream, looked at him silently, and then hummed in a low voice.
