10. Mediocrity

Xu Jie snorted coldly and said two decisive words: "I'm lame!"

My... heart sank to the bottom, and I had no more thoughts. Now I am going to be crippled. Wait, just now he said almost? That means he is not crippled yet? Look at his features carefully with hope, big

He exhaled, "Stop scaring me."

If he was really lame, Xu Jie wouldn't be so calm, and I wouldn't be here. I must have been sent to the hospital immediately. Because anyone in this world could give up on me, but Xu Jie wouldn't. No matter how difficult it was to cure,

He will definitely try his best. When I was recovering, if he hadn't persisted, I might not have been able to stand up.

"Do you think I'm lying to you? But you know that your legs were soaked in water for a long time, and the veins were frozen. At first, the doctor didn't feel it when he pricked you with a needle. Later, he kept massaging and easing the pain, and then he gradually evacuated.

. Even now, it’s difficult for you to move your feet, and you will suffer a lot in the future.”

Although his tone was indifferent and cold, it was not difficult to find that there was heartache in it. After listening to his words, I finally let go of my hanging heart. It should be okay. Only after experiencing that pain can I cherish it.

"Standing" is such a simple act.

The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a dark figure stepped forward. My heart skipped a beat. The face in the darkness was still handsome, but it seemed a little different. After taking a closer look, I discovered that there was a light blue patch on his right cheek.

Combining the injury at the corner of Xu Jie's mouth with the lion fighting scene he saw when he was asleep, it became immediately clear.

It turned out that these two people were fighting! But why?

After Xu Ziyang entered the room, the entire atmosphere changed. Xu Jie's expression became colder and colder, but he did not speak. Xu Ziyang narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "It's your turn to take command." His tone was arbitrary, like a general giving orders to soldiers.

"Humph, why?"

"Since you are the leader of this rescue force, you should be at the forefront to direct the rescue!"

"What about you? Why don't you go?"

Xu Ziyang chuckled lightly and said with a stern look: "I am just the party secretary of this small place. If a leader comes to take charge, I can retreat and come back."

Xu Jie suddenly stood up, and their eyes met in the air. Just when I thought Xu Jie would do something, I suddenly saw him walking towards the door and just said: "Zi Yang, I hope you know what you are doing."

I was greatly surprised, not only that Xu Jie would leave me, but also the tone of his conversation with Xu Ziyang, it really didn’t sound like two people who had just fought. I frowned and looked at that part of his face again.

, asked: "How did you get into a fight?"

Xu Ziyang walked to the bed, glanced at it first, and then said calmly: "Men's matters should be resolved in a man's way." He sat on the edge of the bed, lifted the quilt from my feet, and pressed it with his fingers without any hesitation.

He came up and applied moderate pressure on his fingertips. I was so shocked that I froze on the spot and stared blankly as he lowered his eyebrows and carefully massaged my legs.

Originally, the tense atmosphere dissipated after Xu Jie left, but now both of them were silent, and the ambiguity spread instantly. It was one thing to admit that I was worried about him being uncontrollable before, but now this sudden closeness and disgust

It's the same thing.

Under his gentle massage, the legs were no longer stiff, and gradually regained consciousness. However, the dull pain in the joints was severe, and as Xu Jie said, "It's worth it, I'll have to suffer." It should take a long time.

Only by taking time to rest can you slowly recover.

"It hurts?" came a soft questioning voice.

I hesitated and nodded, and even the subtle expression on my face was caught.

"After everything here is over, we will return. We must go to a big hospital for treatment." He made a decision directly. This is not the first time I have seen him like this. He is calm, decisive and strong.

"Then about my teaching..." he cut me off before he could finish his sentence, "How can you still support teaching like this? Sitting in a wheelchair?" This sentence stopped me. In fact, it doesn't mean how noble my spirit is.

, I just feel that everything should have a beginning and an end. Since I recommended myself to the principal, I can't just run away without completing the task.

Just like the incident of rescuing the boy before, it also happened in front of me. I thought it was just a matter of raising my hand, and I didn't expect that things would develop like that. These are just human instinctive reactions, not how positive the mental outlook is.

.

I muttered in a low voice: "I'm just asking, why are you so fierce?"

Unexpectedly, someone not only had sharp eyes, but also pointed ears. Suddenly he leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "Am I fierce?" Although there was a foot away, I could still feel the breath on my face. My breathing became tight and my body became stiff.

.

He didn't move, just looking at me like that, his eyes were dark and as beautiful as glass. Time seemed to have weathered on him. His expression was extremely sad. After a long time, he finally opened his mouth and called out: Ruoruo...

..

I suddenly felt relieved. The breath that was blocked in my heart had been suppressed since he came to save me and said "Qianqian" until he called Ruoruo at this moment, and finally dissipated. Because of those black and white movie-like eyes.

, the distinct tenderness is so clear, I can see my own reflection.

It’s me he’s looking at in his eyes and thinking about in his mouth, so why bother with me anymore?

The rain stopped, and the rescue work was in full swing. Although Xu Ziyang said so, he couldn't stay out of it, and the same was Xu Jie. The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they would not appear in front of me at the same time, like the confrontation that day.

They didn't show up again. During their absence, Teacher Su took care of me. I found a wheelchair from somewhere, which made my mobility much easier.

By the tenth day, the progress was basically completed, and the villagers who had lost their homes were all placed in temporary houses. Volunteers from all over the country came to help, and more supplies were shipped in. Everyone's lives were temporarily stable.

In the later stage, it will be a reconstruction project, and the government will also pay attention to this place. It can be said that it has received the attention and support of superiors in another way, and it is no longer an anonymous backwater.

However, the price was a bit high, and it even cost some people's lives! I also learned after the fact that the simultaneous invasion of mudslides and floods eventually led to the destruction of some villages that had no time to evacuate, and the loss of life. Even if homes can be rebuilt,

Those who have passed away cannot come back.

I didn't believe it until I saw it with my own eyes. Xu Jie's status in the army was so high. He stood in front of the queue and gave orders to the soldiers, calmly and calmly. I couldn't help but think of the day Xu Ziyang said that he was the leader of this team. I couldn't help but think of it.

Live proud of him.

Because of the sudden incident, our teaching support work was also suspended, and Teacher Su and her husband would also return to the city with me. Waiting by the car, I squinted at what Xu Ziyang was talking to Xu Jie, and then turned to me.

Moving forward. Xu Jie has told me before that due to his responsibilities, he cannot leave yet and must stay on site to preside over the later work.

I will leave with the first return vehicle, and obviously Xu Ziyang is also on board. At this point, I would be really stupid if I still believed that he was sent here for some strange reason because of unclear political direction.

Judging from the respectful attitude towards him by the batches of people who came later, we can understand everything. Therefore, there is only one reason for him to come here, and that is for me.

This was also very obvious in his subsequent behavior, so there is no need to question it.

In a daze, Xu Ziyang had already walked up to me. He bent down and put one hand around my back and the other around my legs. He picked me up and got on the return vehicle. I looked in the direction of Xu Jie from his arms.

, found that he was also looking at us intently, and waved to him silently goodbye.

The return vehicle was a bus, and I was placed next to the window. Xu Ziyang naturally sat next to me. The small space formed a circle. He got a blanket from nowhere and covered my legs with his hands.

Pressing my knees gently. Although this small movement was not obvious, I couldn't help but feel shy and blushed.

The relationship with him is considered acquiescence. My eyes can't help but search for him. Occasionally, when he looks back, the corners of my lips will rise. At this moment, I am not immune to his inadvertent gentle actions.

The road was fairly flat when we came here, but when we returned it became bumpy due to the heavy rain, which made it difficult for the car to drive and the speed was slow. After a while, there was a sound of snoring in the car, and many people fell asleep. It kept going.

It was a reaction to relaxing the tense emotions. When I closed my eyes and fell asleep, I felt him gently put my head on his shoulder, and it didn't take long for him to breathe evenly.

He must be really tired. He has been working day and night to rescue people. He has lived an inhuman life for more than ten days. His eyes are bloodshot and his face is pale, but he is still holding on. I didn't fall asleep, and he was all he breathed.

With the strong breath, my thoughts flew far away.

The day before I left, Qin Chen, whom I hadn't seen for many days, came to say goodbye to me. He felt very guilty about the accident and said he shouldn't have let go of my hand. I smiled and reassured him. Since it was an accident, no one could have predicted it.

It can be said that the scene at that time was difficult to control. There were more people in need of help than me, so Qin Chen let go of my hand. I don't blame him.

When he left, he looked in a daze and said in a daze: Take care. After thinking about it, he felt it was wrong, so he added: Goodbye. Finally, he walked out of my sight with a look of confusion. I nodded to both words. I should take care of myself. I really should.

goodbye.

Sighing lightly, I wonder when he will end his exile and return to the metropolis? Then he thought, maybe that place is more suitable for him. After this incident, he will undoubtedly become the core of that small town and the school leader.

They will only pay more attention to him. The reconstruction work in the future may be his battlefield. Staying there is not a bad thing.

Before dark, we finally arrived at a nearby city. We could only settle in temporarily and wait until tomorrow to take a bus to the next level city to take a plane. Xu Ziyang took me to the hospital without stopping. After an examination, the doctor pointed and took pictures

The film said that the joint was damaged and required conservative treatment. The so-called conservative treatment means resting, and it cannot be cured by drugs for a while.

I was used to hearing such words at the beginning. There was even a time when the doctor told me that if it was difficult for me to stand up, I would have to rely on a wheelchair for the rest of my life. However, I still couldn't stand up. So, I felt that it was not strange, but Xu Ziyang was deeply puzzled.

He frowned and looked extremely ugly.

When he came out of the hospital, he made a decision in a deep voice: "We will go directly back to the provincial capital tomorrow."
