She looked at him with a smile, her tone full of teasing.
"...What about you? I'm so nice, have you fallen in love with me?" Unexpectedly, Qin Yan was not shy or uncomfortable this time, but asked back.
Ning Xi: “…”
You've all learned how to hit the ball back, right?
Just half a month ago, I would blush when I mentioned this!
She tilted her head and looked at him silently.
Qin Yan's heart was already hanging high.
However, he was good at disguising himself, at least there was no sign of anything unusual on his face, as if he was asking a very common question.
"I like him a little, but not to the point of love," she said.
After hearing her previous words, Qin Yan's calm mood suddenly became cheerful. However, before it reached halfway in the air, she knocked him back to the ground with her next words.
His handsome face was stern and his jaw was tightly clenched.
Ning Xi noticed his reaction, but continued, "After all, we've only known each other for a little over a month. If I were to say I love you so easily, you probably wouldn't believe me even if I told you, right?"
Qin Yan: “…”
Maybe I will believe it?
He thought with mixed feelings.
"But I have to admit that you are indeed very good in some aspects and would be a very good candidate for a husband. Of course, if you weren't so weird, petty, and jealous, you would definitely be more likable!"
Qin Yan: “…”
Should I thank you for affirming my value?
Listening to her affirmation that started out high and ended in low voice, Qin Yan twitched his lips and couldn't help but think with a frown on his face.
But I am still feeling a little excited.
However, she suddenly became serious and said, “However, no matter whether I like you or fall in love with you, or whether you like me or fall in love with me, it is not worth your risk of getting hurt for me.
So Mr. Qin, don’t do this next time.”
That's what she wanted to say.
She could openly admit her affection and love for him, but she never wanted him to sacrifice himself for it. She could not afford to repay such a heavy love.
Living under someone else's roof since childhood, being cautious with her sister, and being sensible at an early age made her afraid to easily accept other people's kindness. Even if she accepted it, she would always consider how to repay it. Once she exceeded this line, she would be afraid that she would not be able to repay it!
Therefore, compared to a passionate love, she prefers the current way of getting along, which allows for intimacy without rushing to cross the line and gives each other enough space.
After she finished speaking, she stood up, took off her gloves and said, "I'll go get you a tetanus shot. I'll have the nurse give it to you later."
Then walked out.
Qin Yan looked at her leaving with deep eyes.
He is indeed blank and slow in love, but once he understands it, he thinks he is not a fool.
If he was not sure before whether he could spend his life with Ning Xi, then what happened in the past two days, especially what happened today, has made him very sure and certain that he has chosen this woman.
But her words also made him realize that although she seemed casual and even bold, her inner defenses were much thicker than his.
She can say that she likes him, but she won't open her heart to him easily, and is even afraid of too much and too intense emotions.
Oh!
I have to say that some people, after gaining enlightenment, are very good at observing people's hearts.
Ning Xi had no idea that someone had seen through her heart knot and even made up his mind not to rush and wait for the future. As long as he could keep her, it would be okay to be gentle.
Ning Lan remained in a coma afterwards, and Ning Xi did not rush to wake her up. Instead, he took the opportunity to give her acupuncture treatment.
Then, we also learned from the police the cause of Ning Lan's illness, which seemed to be related to Zhao Kailin.
However, ever since Ning Lan was sent to the hospital, she has been calling Zhao Kailin but couldn't get through.
…
"Dad! Dad!" Zhao Kailin hurried to the Zhao family. After Mrs. Zhao fell ill, those debt collectors were afraid of being held accountable, so they didn't dare to come and make trouble in the past two days.
She went straight up to the second floor and found Zhao Haicheng sleeping soundly with the air conditioner on.
Ever since his mother fell ill, he, as her son, only took care of sending her to the hospital and left everything else to his daughter, while he himself just ate, drank, and slept at home, not taking care of anything.
Smelling the alcohol in the room and seeing the beer bottles on the ground, Zhao Kailin's eyes were full of disgust, but she still stepped forward and pulled back Zhao Haicheng's quilt: "Dad, Dad, wake up! Wake up!"
"What the hell! If you disturb my sleep again, I will beat you to death, believe it or not!" Zhao Haicheng, whose sweet dream was disturbed, roared angrily, and then the wound that had not yet healed was affected, and his face wrinkled in pain.
"You're still injured, why are you drinking?" Zhao Kailin took two steps back and rolled her eyes.
"Fuck you, you little bitch! What do you care if I drink? Your mother is a #￥%￥... Get out! Get out!" Zhao Haiben was already drunk, and the pain was also involved, so he cursed her with dirty words.
Zhao Kailin endured his anger, her face became increasingly gloomy, and the hatred in her eyes grew deeper.
Thinking about Ning Lan's abnormality, I felt that this family had completely lost hope!
Zhao Haicheng vented his anger and fell asleep again.
Zhao Kailin stared at him intently, then turned her eyes and noticed the lighter and cigarettes he placed on the bedside.
…
Ning Lan's condition temporarily stabilized, so Ning Xi asked Qin Yan to go home first and stayed in the hospital to take care of her.
Qin Yan was naturally worried, but thinking about his current state, he said, "Be careful. If there is any danger, don't act rashly."
