Ling Kexin ran out of the villa and came to the pavilion in the back garden. She didn't want to run into Lu Qiaoer, who was sitting on the bench crying. When she saw Ling Kexin, she immediately raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face, lowered her head and ran away.
"Qiao'er!" Ling Kexin caught up with her, took her hand, and said sadly, "I'm sorry!"
Lu Qiaoer was stunned and looked at her doubtfully. Ling Kexin raised her lips and said: "I know that Dr. Cao is leaving the manor... This matter is all my fault. I caused him to suffer."
Lu Qiaoer slowly took out his hand and whispered: "It's none of your business."
"Qiao'er, you hate me too, don't you?"
Lu Qiaoer turned away. After a long while, she said hoarsely: "What's the use of hating you? This is my unjust wish. Doctor Cao...he only treats me as his sister."
"Qiao'er," Ling Kexin took her hand again, looked in the direction of the infirmary, and said hesitantly, "I want to see Dr. Cao and say goodbye to him."
"You want to harm him again?" Lu Qiaoer blurted out very sensitively.
Under the dim street lights, Ling Kexin saw the resentment in Lu Qiaoer's eyes, and felt extremely sad. She shook her head: "I don't want to, then... forget it." She let go of Lu Qiaoer's hand and walked slowly towards the servant building.
go.
Lu Qiaoer looked at her disappointed back and turned around in a circle. After thinking about it, she caught up with Ling Kexin again, tugged at the corner of her clothes and said in a low voice: "Okay, I'll take you there and help you watch from outside."
Look out for the wind, if anyone comes, leave immediately."
Ling Kexin smiled happily, but before the laughter could reach her eyes, a sense of sourness filled her heart again... Why do they have to act like an "underground party" when meeting everyone in this manor?
Cao Lei was packing his luggage in the dormitory when he heard footsteps coming from outside. He paused and his heart beat a beat faster inexplicably. If he guessed correctly, the people coming over now were two girls.
There was a knock on the door soon. Cao Lei hesitated for a moment, then stood up straight, straightened his clothes and hair, and walked over to open the door.
"Doctor Cao." Ling Kexin stood at the door, a little nervous.
"Come in." Cao Lei smiled and held his hand politely. When Ling Kexin walked in, he poked his head outside again.
"Qiao'er is waiting for me outside."
Cao Lei was stunned, Jier shook his head bitterly, left the door ajar, pointed to a chair, and asked Ling Kexin to sit down.
Ling Kexin was sitting on a chair, next to Cao Lei's desk. The table was piled with thick books. There was a plastic frame underneath one of the books. Ling Kexin pulled it out and saw a photo of Cao Lei with Ai Ai in the background.
Phil Eiffel Tower, in the photo, Cao Lei is wearing a blue short T-shirt, with his chin slightly raised and a bright smile.
"Taken while studying abroad." Cao Lei put a glass of boiling water in front of Ling Kexin.
Ling Kexin put down the frame of her glasses, feeling guilty, and said in a loud voice: "Doctor Cao, this incident... was all caused by me. I really don't know how to make up for my mistakes. Aunt Mei came to see me, but I...
…But I couldn’t persuade the young master, I’m sorry!”
Cao Lei smiled, adjusted the glasses on his nose and said, "Don't say that, no one can blame you for this, you are not wrong."
Ling Kexin couldn't help but feel sad when she looked at this gentle and delicate male doctor. That night, the scene of him being whipped suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. Unknowingly, tears welled up in her eyes and her voice choked: "Doctor Cao
, I will find a way to get the young master to let you back as soon as possible."
"I'm not going to jail, why are you sad?" Cao Lei handed the tissue to her, and when his fingers touched Ling Kexin's soft and boneless fingers, he was frightened, and hurriedly retracted his hand, almost dropping the tissue, but Ling Kexin caught it in a panic.
, glanced at him in surprise.
Cao Lei blushed slightly, touched the tip of his nose covertly, and whispered: "The housekeeper said that I went to the United States to take care of a patient. I can come back when the patient recovers."
Ling Kexin stood up in surprise: "Does Aunt Mei know?"
Cao Lei pondered, and Jier smiled coquettishly: "You should know."
"Doctor Cao, I already know that Aunt Mei is your mother." Ling Kexin was so excited that she forgot the rules in the manor. She took Cao Lei's hand and said, "Aunt Mei is a good mother. Doctor Cao, you must
Don't be angry with her anymore. I believe that mothers love their children the most. How happy it is when mothers are by our side. You know, I entered the manor to find my mother... My mother is not with me now, and I don't
I don’t know where she is, but I miss her every day! You are only happy if you have a mother, Dr. Cao, you must love your mother well."
Seeing how excited she was, Cao Lei boldly looked at her face. Suddenly, he was stunned, lifted up the hair that was hanging on the left side of her face, and asked in shock: "You were beaten again?"
Only then did Ling Kexin notice her face. She hurriedly pulled her hair back, smoothed it with her fingers, covered the red and swollen face again, and shook her head slightly panicked: "It wasn't him who hit her, it was... I accidentally hit her.
Hit the wall."
"Don't lie to me, I can see it." Cao Lei pulled her to get a closer look at her face, "Let me take a look and I'll help you reduce the swelling."
"No need." Ling Kexin avoided.
"Come here!" Cao Lei couldn't help but grabbed her hand and pulled her to a cabinet. Just as he opened the glass to get the medicine bottle inside, Lu Qiaoer's panicked cry came from outside.
"Sister Ling, leave quickly!"
Ling Kexin was shocked and didn't bother to say goodbye to Cao Lei. She pulled back her hand and ran out of the door quickly. But after running two steps, she felt something was wrong, so she turned back and ran to the door, bowed to Cao Lei who was in a daze inside, and said anxiously: "
Dr. Cao, I wish you a safe journey tomorrow! Goodbye!"
Before she finished speaking, she turned around and said, "Bang!" The impact was so powerful that she hit a wall of flesh hard...
"Ayo!"
The wall of flesh suddenly "collapsed" down. Ling Kexin was startled and looked at the man who was bending down and clutching his chest through the light coming from the door.
"Is it you, Second Young Master?" She murmured.
Mortao made an exaggerated sign of pain, frowned, frowned, and looked up at Ling Kexin: "If it's not me, who is it?"
"I...I thought..."
"If you were my eldest brother, you would be dead!" Mortao stood up straight, stroked his chest, glanced at Cao Lei who had walked to the door, and then took Ling Kexin's hand, "Let's go!"
"Wait!" Cao Lei came over and handed a stick of ointment to Ling Kexin, "Take it to wipe your face."
"Thank you." Ling Kexin took it.
Mortao tilted his head to look at Ling Kexin's face. Ling Kexin turned away angrily and shook his hand hard, but Mortao held her right hand tightly.
"Let's go!" He pulled Ling Kexin and walked to the intersection. Ling Kexin saw Lu Qiaoer shivering beside her. It seemed that Mortao had come over to intimidate her before. Until now, her face was still frighteningly white. When she saw them,
Nervous, confused and at a loss.
Ling Kexin pried off Mortao's fingers and glared at him angrily, then walked over, took Lu Qiaoer's shoulders and walked forward. Lu Qiaoer's fingers were cold and after walking for a while, she asked Ling Kexin tremblingly: "Second Young Master
...The second young master won’t tell the eldest young master, right?”
"Won't."
"The second young master said he wanted to fire me."
"Well?" Ling Kexin looked back at Mortao after hearing this. However, Mortao did not follow them, but walked towards another road. Ling Kexin comforted Lu Qiaoer, "Don't worry, he is just scaring you. If he fires you
, I will ask him for comment."
"Sister Ling, aren't you afraid of the young master?" Lu Qiaoer's mood slowly stabilized and she turned to look at Ling Kexin with doubt.
Ling Kexin felt protective and satisfied when Lu Qiaoer called her "Sister Ling". She smiled, touched her head and said, "I have died several times, and I am still afraid of them."
?I’m not afraid!”
"You are so bold." Lu Qiaoer laughed along with her, but her cheeks were a little stiff from the smile.
The two of them were walking and talking, and when they reached the servant's building, they suddenly saw Aunt Mei standing at the door. They looked at each other and walked over carefully.
Aunt Mei's bright eyes seemed to have seen the whole story. She glanced at them indifferently without saying anything. Lu Qiaoer shrank her neck and leaned as close to Ling Kexin as possible. Ling Kexin immediately had a sense of "dare to do something" and "dare to do something".
She had the courage to protect the weak and puffed up her chest. She walked up to Aunt Mei and smiled slightly: "Aunt Mei, are you looking for us?"
"Where are you going?" Aunt Mei asked knowingly.
"Just strolling around in the back garden." Ling Kexin replied calmly.
Aunt Mei looked at her dissatisfied and turned towards the villa: "The young master is looking for you!"
Ling Kexin was startled and blinked. Before she could ask, Aunt Mei left first. Lu Qiaoer looked at her worriedly. Ling Kexin grinned, half-smiling, and pretended to be relaxed: "It's okay, I'll be there when I go."
, you can go upstairs and sleep first."
Lu Qiaoer believed that Ling Kexin would come back soon. However, she waited in front of her room door for nearly an hour and still didn't see her coming back. So, she ran to her room on the third floor and opened the window. She saw the villa arriving on the third floor.
The lights were on on the fifth floor, but the curtains in front of the windows were drawn, so she couldn't see anyone inside.
Worried that Ling Kexin would be punished for going to see Cao Lei tonight, and worried that Cao Lei and herself would be implicated, Lu Qiaoer hurriedly and quietly ran down the servants' building.
"Chacha..." Suddenly, deep footsteps came from the other side of the rockery. Lu Qiaoer felt panicked and hurriedly hid in a bush.
Through the street lamp, Lu Qiaoer saw clearly that the person who came was Mo Ye. She wondered what Young Master Mo was coming from over there at this time. She saw that he was neatly dressed, walking heavily, and his handsome face was tense, as if he was angry.
When Mo Ye turned the corner and entered the big villa, Lu Qiaoer quietly walked towards Mo Ye's way of coming. However, she walked for a long time and found nothing. Just when she was puzzled, the golf course was full of surprises.
The dull sound of a dog barking came from the side, and Lu Qiaoer's heart trembled, and she hurriedly ran back towards the original road.
However, just after she ran to the rockery, Lu Qiaoer stopped again, covering her frightened chest. She opened her big eyes and her thoughts were tumbling... No! The eldest young master must have done something to Sister Ling, otherwise, he would be like this
I won’t go to the back garden when it’s late.
Could it be that the eldest young master is coming from the golf course?
Remembering that Ling Kexin was scared to death by a Tibetan mastiff and fell into a fever, Lu Qiaoer became afraid. She hurriedly ran into the servant building and knocked on the door of Wang Ma's room. After Wang Ma listened to Lu Qiaoer's story, her sleepy old eyes were immediately filled with panic.
It's getting turbid.
She hurriedly found a flashlight and followed Lu Qiaoer quietly out of the servants' building.
Study room on the third floor of the large villa.
Mo Ye turned his back to Uncle Liu and Aunt Mei. Standing at this window, he could only see the front yard. Uncle Liu looked at his dark back and said hesitantly: "Young Master, I will take Dr. Cao away tomorrow."
The manor, the two children just...just went to say goodbye to him."
Mo Ye didn't respond. Aunt Mei frowned irritably, and what she wanted to say lingered on her lips for a long time. Uncle Liu touched her with his elbow, and she mustered up the courage to say: "Ling can't be entirely blamed for tonight."
Miss, I didn't stop her at that time."
"Go out, don't think about interceding for her!" Mo Ye raised his hand and made a cold voice.
Aunt Mei opened her mouth, and Uncle Liu immediately grabbed her wrist and left the study. Standing at the corner of the corridor, Uncle Liu sighed softly and blamed Aunt Mei: "You know that every time the eldest young master returns to the manor, he will ask Nurse Miao to help Ling."
Miss, you are doing some body care, are you dizzy today?"
"The eldest young master didn't ask me to take her, so I just... Besides, now that Miss Chu is here, I didn't know that the eldest young master would still have Miss Ling to serve him tonight." Aunt Mei lowered her voice, with a look of distress on her face.
"The eldest young master seems not to be unhappy because Miss Ling went to see Cao Lei, but because she disobeyed him too much."
"What should we do? Miss Chu is already sleeping in the eldest young master's room, and Miss Ling doesn't even know where she was dragged by the eldest young master."
"Let's go, as long as your son is okay, leave the other young masters alone if they don't want us to take care of them."
"But Miss Ling..."
"I don't think the eldest young master will let her die, let's go!" After Uncle Liu said that, he dragged Aunt Mei away.
