Back in the ward, Lan Miao hadn't woken up yet. She just frowned, as if she was feeling very uncomfortable, and kept murmuring in a low voice.
"Sister-in-law, what do you need?"
Jing Miao came closer to her
"Miaomiao..."
Because she had just come out of the operating room, Lan Miao's voice was weak, light, and her pronunciation was a little unclear. Jing Miao actually had the illusion that she was calling his name.
"Sister-in-law, do you need some water?"
Jing Miao leaned close to Lan Miao's ear and asked
But Lan Miao just shook her head, her voice getting faster and faster, as if she was having a nightmare, a nightmare that was unbearable for her.
"Don't call me sister-in-law. I don't want to be your sister-in-law. I am Miaomiao, not Lan Miao. Brother Xiuyu, brother Xiuyu..."
In her sleep, Lan Miao grabbed Jing Miao's hand and held it tightly, like a drowning person grabbing a straw for survival, refusing to let go.
Jing Miao, who finally heard clearly, felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body became stiff.
The hospital in the north was full of heating, which was in sharp contrast to the freezing cold outside. Although she was in a ward as warm as spring, she felt like she had fallen straight into an extremely cold hell.
Feeling Lan Miao's nails digging into her skin, Jing Miao felt pain and almost subconsciously wanted to shake off the hand that dragged her into hell.
With this thought in his mind, Jing Miao already did this in his hand, and Lan Miao's hand was thrown back to the bed sheet with a snap.
At this time, Lan Miao calmed down.
everything is calm
Lan Miao fell asleep quietly, except for her brows which were still slightly wrinkled
Jing Miao sat blankly on the sofa next to her, staring at the sleeping person on the bed from a distance. That whole night, until dawn, Lan Miao didn't have any more nightmares or talk in her sleep.
In the corridor, the sounds of nurses walking, patients coughing from time to time, and cleaners cleaning became more numerous as the sky became brighter.
It wasn't until the door was pushed open and the Xiu family's housekeeper appeared that Jing Miao realized that she had been sitting like this all night.
"Go back and rest quickly. Why are you wearing so little? Why are your hands and feet so cold? Go back quickly."
The housekeeper saw that Jing Miao's face was a little pale, and she was only wearing pajamas. Although the heating was on in the ward, she was still prone to colds. If all the Xiu family's wives went to the hospital, and when Mr. Xiu came back, I'm afraid she would
It's hard to explain
When she went out last night, the pajamas she wore were given to Lan Miao, who was unconscious at the time. Now when the housekeeper said this, she was about to shake her head, but before she could speak, she had already sneezed.
"The car is waiting downstairs and I'll take you down."
Jing Miao shook her head and rejected the housekeeper's kindness.
When I woke up, it was already dark
Feeling that his head was a little heavy, Jing Miao rubbed his temples. He probably still had a cold. Enduring the pain all over his body, Jing Miao went downstairs. Mr. Xiu was sitting on the sofa, watching the military channel.
"grandfather"
"I heard that your sister-in-law was hospitalized last night. Why is she so fine that she suddenly goes to the hospital?"
“Maybe I ate something wrong”
Jing Miao told an inconsequential lie to cover up what happened last night. If he was honest, it would be hard to imagine how Lan Miao would deal with himself in a prestigious family like the Xiu family.
Vulgar incest news like a widowed sister-in-law falling in love with her married brother-in-law is absolutely not allowed to appear in the Xiu family.
Mr. Xiu didn't take it to heart. He paid attention to the news on TV and said calmly, "Go to the hospital and take a look."
Jing Miao changed her clothes, took the soup stewed by the chef at home, and went to the hospital.
As the car drove steadily through the street, goose-feather-like heavy snow drifted down one after another, gradually covering the entire city's silver-covered world. As far as the eye could see, everything was pure white.
“It snows so much”
Jing Miao, who was fascinated by the sight, couldn't help but exclaimed in admiration
"Madam, are you from the south? This kind of snow is relatively light here." While waiting for the traffic light, the driver in front said to Jing Miao with a smile.
Jing Miao just smiled
After arriving at the hospital, Jing Miao was carrying a thermos bottle. Before she could reach the door of the ward, she heard Lan Miao's excited voice.
"Please don't be like this!"
She was answered with a long silence
"Snapped……"
Something seemed to have been thrown to the ground inside.
Jing Miao opened the door and heard Lan Miao's heartbreaking cry, "Is it because I lied to you and became your sister-in-law, so you hate me! I just want to be your Miaomiao, if not
Because of the Lan family, I will not be sent to your brother's bed! I was drugged!"
Xiu Yu picked up Lan Miao, who fell to the ground and was emotional.
Looking from Jing Miao's point of view, Xiu Yu's brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was holding back something. Against the white snow light shining in from the window, his outline was as hard as iron.
Lan Miao cried and fell into Xiu Yu's arms, clutching the front of his shirt tightly, like a desperate trapped animal. With the pain accumulated in her heart, there was no other way but to cry heartbreakingly.
Let it out
"Miaomiao..."
Xiu Yu seemed to sigh, and said softly with great helplessness. Lan Miao almost stopped crying immediately, raised her head, and looked at Xiu Yu blankly.
It was as if a bloody hole had been torn open in her heart by this gentle and wonderful voice, and the emotions accumulated inside surged out in an instant. There was already a storm in her heart, and the waves were rolling, but Jing Miao's face just slowly curved the corners of her lips,
Withdrew gently
She ran straight downstairs in one breath and felt the coolness on her face. The falling snowflakes fell on her face, hair, and clothes, and melted away almost immediately.
The driver waiting downstairs saw Jing Miao leaving and returning, and was stunned for a moment, "Madam, why are you so wet? There is water on your face."
"Ah, I'm stunned by the snow..."
Jing Miao smiled stiffly and wiped her face, but found that the water was hot. It must not be tears, it must be melted snow water.
