Xia Haitong turned to look at Ye Chengxuan and suddenly threw herself into his arms: "Zhengdong... As long as you're okay, it's okay!"
Ye Chengxuan stared at her and just about to push her away, she continued: "Brother, are you okay? I scared my sister to death just now. She thought you were struck by lightning..."
Xia Haitong smiled reassuringly, and his smile was bright, but his eyes were empty, as if he had lost his soul.
Ye Chengxuan shook her: "Xia Haitong, wake up, stop dreaming!"
Although Ye Chengxuan is trying hard to wake up Xia Haitong, she still only lives in her own world: "Brother, it's my sister's fault. My sister should take you back earlier, so that you won't get wet..."
As she said that, she began to wipe Ye Chengxuan's forehead and said distressedly: "It's all wet. Let's go home quickly and drink some ginger soup!"
Ye Chengxuan's eyes darkened, and he slapped her so hard that Xia Haitong's whole body collapsed: "Wake up!"
Xia Haitong's ears buzzed, she shook her head, covered her burning face, and looked at Ye Chengxuan thoughtfully.
Ye Chengxuan squinted his eyes: "Are you awake?"
She didn't answer, but her eyes were no longer as empty as before. She looked around mechanically, with some memories in her eyes.
Ye Chengxuan did not continue to ask. After a while, Xia Haitong took a deep breath, looked at him, then looked at his clothes, and asked slowly: "You... helped me change my clothes?"
"Nonsense." Ye Chengxuan paused slightly and then said, "You have a high fever."
She touched her forehead and was startled as soon as she touched it. She looked at the empty bottle and two wet towels, then looked at Ye Chengxuan. She struggled for a while and then asked: "Can you cool me down?"
Already?"
Ye Chengxuan glared at her: "No."
She whispered: "Then why are there wet towels and medical alcohol here?"
He snorted coldly: "Then you still ask questions knowingly?"
As he said that, he lay down on the bed and pulled off more than half of the quilt. The wind rushed into her body, making her shiver with coldness. She looked at the clothes on the quilt, and then glanced at Ye Chengxuan,
I have a lot of doubts in my heart.
Ye Chengxuan seemed to feel her doubts, and suddenly turned over and hugged her, with the cynical expression on his face again: "Thank you for me? But you have to pledge yourself to me?"
Before she could react, he said again: "No, you are mine, so there is no need for permission."
She wanted to resist, but now she was so dizzy with fever that she couldn't use any strength at all, so she could only lie in his arms obediently.
However, she could still move her mouth: "You damn pervert, let me go!"
Xia Haitong muttered in his heart, damn Ye Chengxuan, I thought you were a little tolerant just now, but I didn't expect it was all an illusion, you bastard!
Instead of letting go, Ye Chengxuan tightened his arms: "Why do you order me? Besides, I've touched your whole body, why are you shy?"
Hearing this, Xia Haitong was so angry that he turned red and white, and gritted his teeth and said: "Sure enough, you saved me because you had evil intentions. You are so perverted!"
After saying this, Xia Haitong took a few breaths, and Ye Chengxuan pushed her away and said, "Why don't you go wash the towel quickly?"
She glared at him: "I would have gone even if you didn't tell me!"
After saying that, she stood up and staggered towards the bathroom.
Ye Chengxuan looked at her back and said in a deep voice: "Get a towel."
She turned around and was about to reach for the towel when she felt dizzy, her waist softened, and she collapsed beside the bed.
Ye Chengxuan looked at her impatiently, took a towel and walked to the bathroom: "Lie down here!"
"I don't need your help!"
Xia Haitong propped herself up. The sultry heat all over her body made her limp. Sweat filled her body, and pain like needle pricks filled her brain. But she didn't care about all this and walked stubbornly to the bathroom.
"ah--"
The sole of her foot slipped and her body leaned forward. She instinctively protected her head and rushed straight to the ground.
Suddenly, a soft force on the back of her neck stopped her falling. She looked up and found that Ye Chengxuan was holding her collar, as small as a chicken.
"Stand still yet?"
Hearing this, Xia Haitong came to her senses and stood up straight immediately. Ye Chengxuan threw the towel to her and said displeasedly: "You don't listen when I tell you to lie down. Do you think you have the guts to do this? You are not overestimating your own abilities.
It will only cause trouble and make people annoying!"
Xia Haitong frowned and said disdainfully: "Who asked you to save me? Even without you, I still won't fall to death and can still stand up!"
Ye Chengxuan snorted coldly: "So you were outside just now, can you come back on your own?"
She clenched her fists: "Of course!"
Ye Chengxuan glared at her, then raised his red lips and said with a disdainful smile: "Do you think that you can solve everything by yourself?"
She nodded: "That's right!"
He sneered and said, "If you were really that powerful, then your brother wouldn't be struck to death by lightning in front of you!"
Hearing this, Xia Haitong staggered back two steps: "You, how did you know?!"
He took two steps forward: "You were so burned out just now that you kept talking in your sleep, and you thought I was your brother." He paused slightly, "What, you forgot all about it?"
Xia Haitong looked at him blankly, and the scene from twelve years ago flashed before her eyes. She squatted down, covered her head in pain, and shouted loudly: "Brother, it is my sister who is sorry for you, it is my sister who is sorry for you!!"
If she had not followed his wishes and not gone home at night, then she would not have encountered that thunderstorm, and Xia Zhengdong would not have been struck to death by lightning!
Moreover, she was the one who suggested playing outside that day, and she was the one who took her brother to the fields with her own hands. She was the instigator of this tragedy, the initiator of this disaster!
But none of this is what she hates most about herself. What makes her hate herself most is that she actually refused to save her brother!
She would never forget that night. That night, the moon was bright, the wind was clear, and the stars were bright. They were chasing and playing in the fields, enjoying the unique freshness of the countryside. But suddenly, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed and thunder, and there was a crash.
It was pouring rain, and they were planning to go home immediately, but at this moment, a purple lightning pierced the sky, and then a thunderbolt struck straight at her brother not far away!
When she saw Xia Zhengdong being struck by lightning, she was completely stunned. In just a moment, his smiling face turned ferocious, his fair skin turned charcoal, and then he fell to the ground.
Her brother was not dead at that time, and she could still hear his faint cry for help, but she was frightened by the scene just now. She was so frightened that she trembled all over and did not dare to move forward at all!
"Sister...save me..."
Big raindrops hit her hard, and Xia Zhengdong's cries for help became smaller and smaller, but she was still frozen in place, as if her soul had left her body!
"Sister...save, save..."
She will never forget that her brother's last words before his death were to ask her for help, which were unfinished words. At that time, Xia Haitong did not realize that her brother was dead, so she just stood there and let the rain hit her.
She stood there and let the cold wind blow. After a long time, she came back to her senses and rushed to Xia Zhengdong's side!
However, when she saw Xia Zhengdong's unrecognizable appearance, she was immediately frightened and cried. She couldn't believe that this monster-like charcoal was her brother!
She cried and shouted that this was not her brother, it must not be her brother! She ran aimlessly in the fields, fell down and got up again, got up and fell down again. She just wanted to find her original brother and take him home.
!
She shouted "Brother - brother -" as she ran, but she ran for a long time without finding any trace of Xia Zhengdong. Just when she was exhausted, her parents found her and asked her where her brother was, but she
I would just cry blindly and not be able to answer this question.
Xia Haitong knew that at that time, she had actually accepted the fact that he was her younger brother, but she just didn't want to tell this fact, she was escaping!
She knew that all the disasters were caused by her. It was because of her weakness and incompetence that she let her brother die! It was she, Xia Haitong, who personally killed Xia Zhengdong and the most clingy person.
She, the cutest brother!
Xia Haitong, you are a murderer!
Xia Zhengdong's body was found around 11 o'clock in the evening.
The big eyes were as lifeless as if the soul had been sucked, and the purple lips were trembling.
She saw her parents breaking down the door and entering. Her mother's eyes were crimson and her face was covered with tears. Her father was holding his brother who had turned into black coal, and the crystals were spinning in his eyes. The kindness of the past was gone.
My mother cried and asked, Haitong, what happened, why was my brother struck by lightning?!!
She didn't answer her, and she also wanted to know the answer to this question.
Dad's face was livid, and he roared angrily: Why didn't you go home earlier? You are the sister, why didn't you take good care of your brother?
She didn't say anything, yes, it was all her fault, it was her who made her brother like this.
When her mother saw her like this, she was very angry and whipped her with a whip. She scolded her, "Your brother is dead and was struck by lightning. Why can you be so emotionless?"
She didn't cry out in pain because she couldn't feel the pain anymore. Her brother was dead, her brother was really dead. Is this monster really her brother?!
The father put his brother down, grabbed her collar and threw her to the ground. He pointed at her on the ground and roared, why didn't you die!!
As soon as she finished speaking, a bolt of lightning pierced the night, and the roar of thunder entangled her like a devil. Those words kept echoing in her mind...
Why wasn’t you the one who died!!
Yes, why wasn't she the one who died? Although Xia Haitong's parents lived in the city, they were both from rural areas. In the countryside, they were somewhat patriarchal. In fact, her parents were fine and had always been
I haven't shown it much since then, at least not to let Xia Haitong feel it.
But she had already felt it that night.
She doesn't hate, really doesn't hate, she can understand her parents' hatred towards her, because she also hates herself. Although she tries her best to hide it, until now, whenever she encounters a particularly severe thunderstorm, she will always
Everyone will think of that night, their sins, and their hatred!
Therefore, even if her parents were very cold towards her or even abandoned her, she would not blame them. Really, she had never complained.
