Chi Zao ran out of the bathroom as if he was running away.
Then there was the sound of water.
She sat on her bed, feeling hot all over her body, and her heart felt like thousands of ants were crawling.
So restless.
Unable to sit still.
She had to get up and push open the window, open the balcony door, and go outside to enjoy the cold wind for a while.
Then, she heard the sound of water in the bathroom stop.
I didn't see Xiao Yu's back just now, so I don't know what happened to his injuries.
She thought for a while and was about to walk back.
There was a knock on the bedroom door.
Chi Zao was stunned and stepped forward to open the door.
Yan Fei was standing at the door holding the medicine box, "Miss Chi, I'm here to apply medicine to you and rub your back."
Chi Zao: "..."
So why was she pulled into the bathroom just now?
…
In the end, Xiao Yu still didn't let Chi Zao rub his back.
In fact, he had called Yan Fei a long time ago and had no intention of asking her to do anything.
Chi Zao was shocked to realize that he had been "played".
When they came out of the bathroom, Xiao Yu had already put on his pajamas. Yan Fei carried the medicine box and left wisely.
He glanced at the open balcony door and window, then looked at Chi Zao, "Is it hot?"
Chi Zao: Asking questions knowingly.
He stepped forward and closed the door, closed the curtains, turned on the air conditioner, and adjusted the temperature to just right. Then he stood there and waved to Chi Zao, "Come here."
Chi Zao hesitated and walked over.
Just then.
The phone Xiao Yuna threw on the bed rang.
He frowned slightly, picked up his phone and took a look.
Chi Zao clearly saw that he originally wanted to press the call, but after seeing the caller, he paused and picked up the phone.
Opening it hands-free, Mr. Xiao's solemn and unhappy voice came out:
"Ayu, you have been away from Ningcheng for so long, are you not planning to come back? Don't you want everything from the Xiao family and Ningcheng, and don't want me, the old man?"
Chi Zao paused in his steps.
Xiao Yu suddenly pulled her over and sat beside the bed.
He still had the refreshing smell of shampoo and a faint medicinal smell, which brought with him his unique masculine scent.
Chi Zao was hugged around the waist and sat sideways on his lap. She didn't expect that he would dare to do it in front of Mr. Xiao on the other side of the phone. A look of shock appeared on her face, and then she held her breath subconsciously, fearing that she would be called by someone on the phone.
people heard it.
But no matter how small the sound was, it was extremely noticeable in this quiet night.
The other end of the phone didn't hear Xiao Yu's answer. He was slightly startled and realized something was wrong, "Ayu?"
"I'm here." Xiao Yu spoke lazily, hugging Chi Zao, "Old man, do you know what I'm doing?"
Chi Zao's eyes widened, fearing that Xiao Yu's words would be shocking.
The next second.
"I'm studying with you in Kyoto." After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he handed over his cell phone, "Xiao Zao'er, say hello to grandpa."
Chi Zao: "..."
"Xiao Zao? Are you and Xiao Zao together?" The old man on the other end of the phone was a little surprised.
Xiao Yu did not tell Mr. Xiao when he left Ningcheng.
In fact, in these years, Xiao Yu has always been elusive and absent from Ningcheng most of the time.
But whether he left or where he went, Mr. Xiao knew it. Only this time, it was silent.
That's why the old man called, but who knew he got such news.
Chi Zao glared at Xiao Yu and took the phone, "Old man, it's me. I came to Kyoto to go to school, and Xiao Yu...is with me."
"It's really Xiaozao." Mr. Xiao on the other side of the phone smiled. He went from serious to amiable in just half a minute, "Yes, old man, I'm so old that I forgot that Xiaozao, you have already started school. Are you
When I went to Beijing University, I said that Ayu just left without even saying hello. It turned out that he was going with you. Not bad, not bad... In this case, Ayu, just stay with Xiaozao in Kyoto.
.If nothing happens, don’t come back.”
Chi Zao: "???"
Aren't you here to ask him to go back? Why don't you just go back if it's okay...
Xiao Yu seemed to have expected it. He raised his eyebrows and lay down with Chi Zao in his arms.
Chi Zao hadn't forgotten the wound on his back, so he subconsciously rolled to the side for fear of crushing him.
But he turned sideways and fished her back.
The two of them were lying on the bed, looking at each other, and his hand was on her lower back, as hot as his body temperature.
This series of movements made a rustling sound, all transmitted through the mobile phone receiver.
Mr. Xiao coughed lightly and said, "It's getting late. Xiaozao. If you need my help with anything, grandpa, just ask me. It's time for me to go to bed. You guys should go to bed early."
Chi Zao came back to his senses and said, "Okay, goodbye grandpa."
"Goodbye, bye. Come back when you have time and let Ayu take you to the old house for dinner."
Mr. Xiao gave a few instructions before hanging up the phone.
Chi Zao raised his head, a little angry, "Xiao Yu, you did it on purpose."
"Huh?" He raised his eyebrows, "Why did I do it on purpose?"
"Deliberately letting the old man misunderstand the two of us..."
"What is a misunderstanding?" His hand gently touched her face, "Isn't it normal for us to be together?"
They used to have a fake boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
It's real now.
That's not called a misunderstanding.
All I can say is that I know the truth.
Chi Zao choked up and said, "Wrong logic."
His hands roamed on her cheeks, "He doesn't trust me, but if he's with you, he'll feel at ease."
Why?
Chi Zao wanted to ask.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly gently touched the scar on her face and said, "Chi Zao, your scar has faded."
Chi Zao was startled for a moment, then nodded, "Yes. I took the medicine."
His eyes deepened, "When?"
Chi Zao realized what he was asking. Seeing him looking at his face, he thought for a moment and said, "After returning to China, I have been using it more recently."
He paused slightly.
Looking at her seriously, "So you have scar removal medicine, but you didn't want to use it before, right?"
Including in Feld, he found a lot of medicine for her, but she never touched it. To this day, those medicines are still in the room where she lives in Los Manor.
At that time, she was so heartbroken that she didn't even want her life, let alone her face.
Chi Zao raised his hand and pressed his temple gently. His tone was calm and gentle, as if he was telling someone else's story, "Yeah. But then I figured it out. Xiao Yu, I saw the old mayor Feld.
With the mayor's wife, the old mayor was unconscious, and the old lady said that no matter whether he was alive or dead, she would live well because she knew there was someone who wanted her to be well."
But what really made her figure it out was not just this one thing.
From the day she went abroad, her world suddenly changed. She was no longer limited to the land of Ningcheng.
She left the place that gave birth to her in her previous life but also caused her pain.
He took her to Feld to relax, went to the sea to feed the pigeons and look at the sycamore trees. His company all day long was like a light being forcibly lit in her dark world. It might be weak, but it was always there.
She needed time for herself to digest and figure it out, and the old mayor and the old lady were the opportunity.
Chi Zao raised his face slightly, looked at the person in front of him, and smiled slightly, "Xiao Yu... thank you."
His expression was still fixed. When he heard her relief, he was neither happy nor relaxed. His eyes were as deep as the sea. Then, he clasped the back of her head and hugged her into his arms.
"No, don't thank me."
Chi Zao was stunned for a moment when he heard his faint voice, which was hoarse and deep.
The hand around her waist slowly tightened, and Xiao Yu rested his chin on her head, "Chi Zao, I almost hurt you. It's me who should say I'm sorry to you..."
