Chapter 33: Hugging her, she cried while hugging someone she had only met once. ...
The news of Qi Zhao's accident was not leaked, and his awakening did not cause much stir, except for those who knew about it.
Shan Xianmin was frightened for two days, and only felt relieved after she was sure that she would not be retaliated against.
Gu Yue: [What is Qi Xunsheng doing recently]
Shan Xianmin: [Accompanying his wife]
Gu Yue: [? ]
【Qi Zhao woke up? 】
It was the same before. Gu Yue would send her a message whenever she couldn't find Qi Xunsheng. She had long been accustomed to it.
In the past, they thought Gu Yue hated Xun Sheng, and that he contacted her only because of Luo Qingqing's instructions. Neither of them had thought about it in this way.
[Sister Gu, you are too childish.]
Anyone could tell that Gu Yue was just being angry and didn't really want to have a relationship with Jiang Xue.
After a few days of quarreling, Qi Xunsheng didn't care at all and his defense was broken all of a sudden.
Gu Yue: [As her senior, I am qualified to help her identify a partner.]
Shan Xianmin: [Sister, what are you doing? ]
Gu Yue: [Of course, I'm going to visit Qi Zhao.]
She really thought Gu Yue was crazy.
Shan Xianmin: [Do you think Qi Zhao's house is a vegetable market? Go there whenever you want.]
Gu Yue: [Why do you think I'm looking for you?]
Shan Xianmin: ...Does she look so much like a tool?
[No, I don't have that right.]
Gu Yue: [What if I could tell you Wei Ling's secret?]
Shan Xianmin shrugged. She and Wei Ling had known each other for so long, and there really wasn't a secret that could impress her. But she still asked symbolically, "What secret?"
Gu Yue: [About her first love.]
Shan Xianmin: [??? Where did she get her first love?]
Gu Yue: [I'm not lying to you.]
Shan Xianmin: [……]
Gu Yue didn't receive a reply for a long time, so he sent a question mark again, and then received a screenshot.
It is a dialog box between Gu Yue and Wei Ling.
Now it was Gu Yue's turn to have a screen full of question marks.
Gu Yue: [I made a deal with you, and you betrayed me?]
[What deal? I didn't agree to it.]
He actually traded his friend's secret. Although Shan Xianmin really wanted to know the answer and was momentarily shaken, he was eventually defeated by his conscience.
If she wanted to know something, she would ask Wei Ling directly instead of using such despicable means.
She, Dan Xianmin, would never betray her friends and the people she loved, no matter how great the temptation was.
What's more, Wei Ling seemed to be completely unaware of his secret, so Gu Yue must have lied.
Gu Yue didn't expect Shan Xianmin to be so principled. Even after talking to this point, she was still unwilling, and in the end she was scolded by Wei Ling.
So in the end, the deal between the two was not completed.
In the afternoon, after some hesitation, Shan Xianmin decided to bring some fruits to Rose Manor to visit Qi Zhao.
As soon as she went out, she saw Xu Shanyan squatting at her door with his schoolbag in his arms. It had been several days since they last saw each other.
“Minmin!”
"Hey, long time no see, Shanyan!"
After saying hello, Shan Xianmin remembered that she seemed to have never brought Xu Shanyan to her house.
As if he saw the hesitation in her eyes, Xu Shanyan took the initiative to explain: "I heard Xunsheng say it."
"Do you have something to talk to me about?" If he didn't, he wouldn't be squatting at her door so early in the morning. "Also, why didn't you knock when you came?"
"I want to wait for you here." Xu Shanyan pursed his lips, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to visit someone."
"Is it the woman who saved Xunsheng last time?"
"OK."
"Is that person good to Sister Xunsheng?"
"That's great. Didn't you see it? She risked her own life to save Xun Sheng."
Xu Shanyan was there the last time they went to the beach, and Shan Xianmin didn't hide it from her.
"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
"I'm concerned."
"I'm going to see her now, so I may not be able to accompany you." Although they had a good relationship, Shan Xianmin could not take anyone to Qi Zhao's manor without permission.
"Okay, bye."
Shan Xianmin had just turned and walked away for two steps when she heard a sound of "ouch" from behind her. Looking back, she saw Xu Shanyan sitting on the ground, holding his ankle with his hand, looking up pitifully: "I accidentally twisted it, can you take me to the hospital?"
Shan Xianmin: “…”
This is too careless! The fall happened without any warning, and the ankle didn't show any signs of injury.
But she felt that Xu Shanyan had no reason to lie to her, so she put down the fruit in her hand and drove her to the hospital.
-
Two days after Qi Zhao woke up, his body had almost recovered. Qi Xunsheng finally put her mind at ease. When she had nothing to do, she would water the flowers and sleep. Qi Zhao never asked her where the medicine came from.
"Who was the girl next to your friend last time?"
"Which time?" The sudden question made Qi Xunsheng's brain freeze for two seconds. "You mean the last time he saved me? The person next to Minmin?"
"Um."
"My new friend has been helping me with the petting zoo. What's going on?"
Qi Zhao frowned, thought carefully, and said calmly: "How did you know each other?"
Qi Xunsheng scratched his head, put down the tools he was using to water the plants, and walked up to her. "It's a strange story, actually. When she found me, she said my teacher had appeared in her dreams, asking me to do more good deeds. And she also happened to like animals, so we became friends."
When answering, Qi Xunsheng directly skipped the first and main reason, which was to suspect that Xu Shanyan was related to the teacher's death. It was called friendship, but it was actually suspicion.
"What's wrong?" Qi Xunsheng had never seen her with this expression before, and felt strange and uneasy.
"She is very strange." Qi Zhao said lightly.
"At first I thought it was strange, too. My teacher didn't even know her, so how could she dream and ask her to come find me? But after getting to know her, I found she was very innocent and kind. And considering I could even see ghosts, it made sense that my teacher dreamt of her."
"How do you know your teacher doesn't know her?"
"Huh? Of course I don't know her! I've been with the teacher for so long, I've seen everyone around her. If Teacher Luo knew a well-behaved child like Xu Shanyan, he would definitely mention her to us."
Qi Xunsheng felt a little sad when she said this. It was not because she was too confident, but because Teacher Luo was really good to her, just like his own daughter.
"Did you notice anything unusual?"
"No, like I said, she's very innocent and kind, with no bad intentions. Minmin and I both felt a strong affinity for her from the moment we met."
Just be friendly.
Xu Shanyan looks exactly like Princess Xianxue from his previous life.
Princess Xianxue, who skipped classes and climbed over the wall with Qi Xunsheng, causing chaos in the academy.
If Xu Shanyan is Xianxue in the previous life, then who is Shan Xianmin?
"Then how did you get to know Shan Xianmin?"
"We've known each other since we were little! We disliked each other since we were little, but then my mom passed away and all my childhood friends stayed away from me. Only Minmin came to comfort me and went to and from school with me. Over time, our relationship naturally improved."
After hearing this, Qi Zhao remained silent for a long time.
Qi Xunsheng felt uneasy and pulled her sleeve: "Why don't you say anything? Is there something wrong?"
Ever since he knew that the person in the ancient painting was her, Qi Xunsheng felt even more uneasy.
Qi Zhao is not an ordinary person, and the person she is thinking about is even more extraordinary.
"It's okay, I just want to get to know the people around you better."
"Okay." Regardless of whether this was the reason or not, Qi Xunsheng had no choice but to believe it.
"I haven't seen your friend since we got married."
"What's the meaning?"
"I want to treat your friends to a meal."
"Then set a time and I'll ask them."
Qi Xunsheng had a vague guess in his heart that Qi Zhao was not a friendly and kind person, and he didn't have the leisure to get to know someone he didn't want to do anything with.
But she said there must be only one reason.
There are problems with the people around her.
As for what the problem was, she had no idea. Since Qi Zhao woke up, no matter how she asked, Qi Zhao would not tell her. After so many times, Qi Xunsheng stopped asking.
Anyway, what she can guarantee is that Qi Zhao will definitely not hurt her.
Then there's nothing to worry about.
The hospital on the other side.
After examination by the doctor, Xu Shanyan only had minor abrasions and no bone injuries.
Shan Xianmin stood aside, her hands folded, looking down at her. Xu Shanyan avoided her in fear and asked the doctor tremblingly, "Is it possible that this film was taken incorrectly?"
The doctor frowned and looked at the X-ray again: "Yes, there is nothing wrong. Do you have any other discomfort?"
Xu Shanyan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, my whole leg is very uncomfortable."
"The only option is to get a CT scan."
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Shan Xianmin saw that she was really ready to agree, so she quickly pulled her up and left: "No, no."
The hospital was crowded, so Shan Xianmin found a quieter corridor before letting her go. "What are you doing?"
Xu Shanyan lowered her head, her fingers curling the hem of her skirt: "I..."
"Are you really feeling unwell or are you pretending to feel unwell?"
“…”
Shan Xianmin couldn't understand what Xu Shanyan was doing.
Is she bored and needs company? So she tells me a lie to keep me company?
But Xu Shanyan is not such a boring person, so this is definitely not the reason.
No matter how she pressed him, Xu Shanyan hesitated and didn't answer. Shan Xianmin sighed: "Forget it, you..."
"Shan Xianmin."
Just as I was about to say a few words and leave, I heard a familiar voice coming from the end of the corridor.
Gu Yue and Wei Ling were standing at the end of the corridor, and it was Gu Yue who called her name.
"My friend said he saw you in the hospital, so he happened to be nearby so he came to see you. Are you okay?"
If it weren't for the unpleasant conversation between the two a few hours ago, Shan Xianmin would have really regarded her as a kind and caring older sister.
"I'm fine. I came here with a friend." Shan Xianmin explained.
"Who is this?" Gu Yue then looked at Xu Shanyan who was following her obediently.
"My friend Xu Shanyan."
Shan Xianmin didn't want to talk to her any more, so he looked at Wei Ling beside him. Seeing her red eyes, his heart skipped a beat.
Wei Ling has always been gentle and steady. No matter what happens, she is always the one who stands at the forefront to help them solve the problem. I have never seen her so sad and moved.
Was it because he heard she was in the hospital and thought she was sick? She felt a surge of emotion and guilt.
She didn't expect Wei Ling to care about her so much, which made her worried.
"I'm not sick, I just..."
"Xiaoxue——" Wei Ling walked around her.
Shan Xianmin's pupils suddenly widened, her words of explanation and comfort were abruptly interrupted, and the hand that wanted to touch her stopped in mid-air.
She turned her head to the side, her eyes fixed on him.
The man who was always gentle and steady was now hugging a stranger he had just met, his eyes were red and he was murmuring a strange name.
"Xiaoxue——"
Xu Shanyan stood there at a loss. The strong and powerful hug made it difficult for her to breathe. She looked for help at Shan Xianmin who was standing there in a daze.
