【49】Walk quietly

"Why can't it be me?" he asked repeatedly.

Xia Tong was stunned, why not him? Why didn't she want to be with him?

She asked herself countless times but couldn't find the answer.

Whenever she wants to accept him, a voice of resistance will always emerge from her heart, reminding her: no, no... she must not be tempted...

"I..." She opened her mouth.

His eyes flashed, as if he was afraid that he would hear an answer he didn't want to hear. He interrupted her: "No..."

He held her hand and moved closer to her. Xia Tong's body became stiffer and stiffer with his movements.

"The question you asked this morning..." He felt a little tired and placed his head on her shoulder: "I can answer you."

Question asked in the morning? She was stunned for a moment.

"You said you want to go back to City A, okay."

Xia Tong's heart jumped very fast.

"But please go quietly and don't let me see you." He continued.

"……."

He continued to hold her hand calmly, and the friction between the lines of his fingertips hit his heart in the slightest. He seemed really tired, and he was also a little nervous, which made the two people's clasped hands feel nervous.

Sweated a little.

"Otherwise, I will be afraid that I will do something unreasonable."

Xia Tong turned her head to look at him blankly, as if she couldn't believe it. He closed his eyes, not daring to meet her gaze.

"You're tired." She arranged his clothes for him, "Do you need me to find some medicine for you?" He looked really ill, his face was pale, his lips were completely bloodless, and under his eyelids there were

A piece of light green.

Even if there is no love, she still wants to treat him tenderly. Just like he treated her in the past year.

"Yeah." Rarely, he nodded quietly.

Xia Tong took a pillow and placed it on the side of the sofa, helped him lie down, and then covered him with a blanket.

"Let's sleep for a while first."

Just as she was about to stand up, he held her hand: "Qiao Raoruo is in the attic, please let her go." He still closed his eyes, avoiding her sight.

Xia Tong smiled: "Okay."

********* *********

After getting the key he mentioned, Xia Tong walked to the attic and opened the door.

The moment the door opened, a figure stood up very quickly, "You bastard, finally -" was the voice of Qiao Raorao. When he saw her appearing, he was stunned for a moment.

"Xia Tong? It's you!" She ran over in surprise: "Did that bastard Gu Haoran do anything to you?!" She looked at her up and down, very nervous.

Xia Tong shook his head: "No, he is very good to me."

Then she felt relieved, grabbed her hand and said, "Then let's go quickly!"

Xia Tong pulled her away: "No, you can go first."

She was shocked: "Are you crazy? Why do you still stay here? Do you know that he deliberately concocted that kind of medicine that can kill a thousand cuts, and wants to make you lose your memory! You can't stay here anymore!"

"He won't hurt me anymore." She confirmed.

Xia Tong thought for a while and then explained: "He is sick. I have to take care of him for a day or two first, and then I can leave after he recovers."

Qiao Raoruo opened his eyes wide and looked at her in disbelief.

Xia Tong patted her shoulder and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, Gu Haoran is not as bad as you think. It was him who asked me to let you go. I will only stay for a day or two, or -" She paused.

After a pause, "After you leave, you can notify 'him' to pick me up."

She knew who Xia Tong was referring to.

The drug abuse during this period made her memory worse and worse. Through Ran Ran, she knew that she had a husband. But the strangeness prevented her from saying that name.

Qiao Raoruo thought for a while and then said solemnly: "Okay." He grabbed her shoulders uneasily and said: "Xia Tong, you must wait for me, even if he wants to do something to you, you can't give in, you know?

"

Xia Tong smiled and replied: "I know."

********* ********

But now even if he wants to do something to her, he can't seem to do it?

After Qiao Raoruo left, Xia Tong looked at the peacefully sleeping figure on the sofa and shook his head.

Has anyone told him? In fact, he looks very cute when he sleeps, like a child.

In the morning, the slightly cyan morning light came in through the white window, illuminating a sleeping, perfect face.

His quiet and beautiful sleeping face was like a sleeping child, immersed in his own sweet dream. However, the familiar fragrance penetrated his nose bit by bit, waking him up from his groggy dream.

His eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his misty eyes.

He sat up and rubbed his temples. He was so tired, so tired. He hadn't slept for almost a day and a night. Coupled with the deliberate cold shower, his usually healthy body seemed to be overwhelmed, and he started to go on strike.

.

After a night's rest, my body seemed to have recovered somewhat, but unfortunately my forehead was still frighteningly hot.

The familiar aroma is getting stronger. Is there anyone there?

He raised his head, and when he saw the emptiness in the room, he twitched his lips in a self-deprecating manner. How could it be possible? He had acquiesced to her leaving last night, how could she still stay here and continue to be under his 'rule'?

?

However, the thought was only halfway through when he was interrupted by a soft voice.

"Are you awake?" Xia Tong came out carrying several sandwiches.

He froze and stood up suddenly. The man who was used to being calm and calm was actually at a loss at this moment: "You...you..." Why haven't you left yet? He wanted to ask, but he didn't ask.

Xia Tong guessed what he was going to say and sat directly at the dining table: "You are still sick." So she could not safely leave him here alone.

"Come over for breakfast," she said.

He scratched his hair and walked over. Xia Tong looked at his face and smiled.

"What's wrong?" he wondered.

"It's nothing." Xia Tong grabbed a sandwich and said, "It's just that every time I saw you in the past, you wore a neat suit and always made yourself look fresh and refreshing, as if you were touching a dog. This is the first time I've seen you.

You are so——." She tried to find the right word: "'natural' look."

His face sank. Without thinking, he could guess what he looked like now?

After being sick all night, he didn't wash his face, and he was still wearing loose pajamas... He must be in bad shape now.

He stood up and said, "Wait for me."

Uh... Xia Tong bit her sandwich for a moment. Sensing what he was going to do, she hurriedly said: "You have to eat first. There are only two of us in the villa anyway, and I won't laugh at you."

Is appearance as important as belly?

But obviously, Xia Tong misjudged Playboy Gu's strictness about appearance, and in just one flash, he had already disappeared.

Beside the sink, the man was brushing his teeth, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously. But in just a moment, the faint smile froze and slowly disappeared.
