Chapter 126 The desire to survive is very weak
"ah?"
Qin Zifei's face turned visibly red.
"Brother, why are you still shy? We are so familiar with each other, it's okay to be roommates."
Jiang Xu smiled calmly.
"Well, roommate, as long as you don't mind."
Qin Zifei touched his nose and smiled awkwardly, "Don't worry, I'm going on a business trip soon and won't stay long."
Jiang Xu smiled and said, "It's okay. I still trust Senior Brother's character. Besides, that house is very close to the company, so it's convenient for me to live there."
"That's good."
Qin Zifei was relieved.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xu went back and told her mother that she had rented a house close to the company and planned to move there. Xia Yulin expressed her understanding and asked her to work hard.
She had just returned to China and didn't have much stuff, so she packed up quickly and moved in the next morning.
The Qin family is a scholarly family. They are not short of money, but they are not wealthy either. They bought a mid- to high-end residential area with a good environment and, most importantly, convenient transportation. It can be seen that they were very picky at the time.
Qin Zifei took the initiative to give up the master bedroom and moved into the second bedroom farthest from the master bedroom.
After packing up, he took a phone call and left.
Jiang Xu was just about to take a break when his cell phone suddenly rang.
It was Chi Xiaoli calling.
Press the answer button, "Hello?"
The next second, a girl's crisp voice came from the phone: "Aunt Jiang, are you going out to play today?"
Jiang Xu smiled and said, "It's An An, do you want to play with Auntie?"
“Yes!”
After Gu Anan finished speaking, Chi Xiaoli took the phone away and said, "Xubao, come out and play. Anan has been nagging about wanting to see the beautiful aunt again these past few days."
Jiang Xu readily agreed.
Then she changed her clothes and went to the agreed shopping mall.
When she reached the first floor, not long after entering, Gu Anan, who was not far away, waved at her: "Aunt Jiang!"
Next to her stood a little boy, the little boy with a very cold personality.
Jiang Xu quickened his pace and walked over, bending down and touching Gu Anan's face: "Hello, Anan."
She looked at the boy again and smiled, "I remember your name is Tuanbao, right?"
Tuanbao pursed his lips, stared at Jiang Xu's face with his beautiful black eyes, and nodded.
"There's an arcade over there, let's go play there."
Gu Anan pulled Chi Xiaoli forward.
Tuanbao followed silently behind.
Jiang Xu saw that there was a woman following him, but she was a bit older, probably in her forties.
"Are you Tuanbao's family?" Jiang Xu asked.
The other party smiled and said, "I am the nanny who is responsible for taking care of him. My last name is Lin, and everyone in the family calls me Aunt Lin."
Jiang Xu nodded and looked at Tuanbao.
I found that he was staring at Gu Anan and Chi Xiaoli holding hands. Gu Anan was jumping around and calling "Mom" happily.
"Mom, can we go get burgers later?"
"Mom, is there a real person inside that little bear puppet?"
"Mom, can we play a little longer today?"
Tuanbao watched without blinking, his eyes full of envy.
Jiang Xu whispered to Aunt Lin, "Why don't you hold his hand too?"
Aunt Lin looked embarrassed and shook her head: "The young master doesn't want to hold hands with anyone, not even his father."
Jiang Xu was surprised, what a strange kid.
As I was walking, I suddenly heard a whistle from the opposite side. It was the small train that you buy tickets for in the mall, rushing towards me.
Chi Xiaoli subconsciously pulled Gu Anan to hide aside.
The group treasure behind was unable to dodge in time.
Seeing the danger approaching, Jiang Xu didn't think twice, grabbed Tuanbao's hand and led him to the side.
Chi Xiaoli cursed: "Driving so fast, don't you have eyes?"
Jiang Xu looked down at Tuanbao: "Are you scared?"
Tuanbao looked up at her, and Jiang Xu couldn't help but sigh that the child's eyes were so beautiful, with clear black and white, and the black pupils were big and bright, like a quiet night sky full of stars.
Tuanbao silently withdrew his hand from her palm: "No."
Jiang Xu didn't take his resistance to heart and patted his head: "That's good."
Then they brought their children to the playground. After paying the money, Gu Anan and Tuanbao went in to play.
Jiang Xu and Chi Xiaoli each bought a cup of milk tea and sat in the rest area to chat.
About an hour later, a quarrel suddenly broke out in the playground.
"Someone's beating someone up! Someone's beating someone up!"
A child cried heartbreakingly.
Gu Anan ran out and grabbed Chi Xiaoli: "Mom, come here quickly, something happened to Tuanbao."
When they heard this, they all thought Tuanbao was being bullied. They ran over to take a look and found that Tuanbao was pinning down a boy who looked a little older than him.
"Bad guy, get out of here! Don't bully my grandson!"
An old lady ran over and grabbed Tuanbao's ear.
Jiang Xu's face changed, and he walked over and said, "Let go! Who allowed you to do this?"
The old lady said arrogantly: "He dared to bully my grandson, and I haven't beaten him yet!"
"If you dare, if you touch him, I'll call the police!"
Jiang Xu grabbed the old lady's hand and shook it off, then said to Tuan Bao, "Let go. It's not a good habit for children to fight."
Tuan Bao said coldly: "He deserves to be beaten."
Jiang Xu emphasized her tone: "Tuanbao, if you continue like this, Auntie will think you are an unreasonable child and will no longer like you."
Tuanbao was slightly stunned and looked at Jiang Xu.
After hesitating for a moment, he let go.
The old lady held her grandson in her arms, calling him her darling, and pointed at Tuanbao and said, "Apologize!"
Jiang Xu said to Tuan Bao, "Apologize to them."
Tuanbao's face was very sour: "I won't apologize."
Jiang Xu frowned: "Tuanbao, listen, you hit him, you must apologize."
Tuanbao stared at her with his mouth tightly shut.
Gu Anan stepped forward and said, "Aunt Jiang, he was the one who scolded Tuanbao first. He said Tuanbao couldn't laugh and was a big fool. He also told other children not to play with him."
These words made Jiang Xu stunned.
At the same time, a deep sense of guilt welled up in my heart.
At this time, two more little girls stood up and said that the boy scolded Tuanbao first, and Tuanbao fought back when his warnings were ineffective.
Jiang Xu looked at the old lady and said, "You heard it too. Your grandson was at fault first. We can't apologize. If you're not convinced, call the police."
The old lady snorted, "Isn't it just a few scoldings? Why hit someone?"
Having said that, he dragged his grandson away cursing.
Jiang Xu squatted down, keeping her eyes level with Tuanbao, and said softly, "I'm sorry, Auntie asked you to apologize just now without asking clearly. I was wrong."
Tuanbao's eyes twinkled, and he whispered, "It's okay."
Gu Anan grabbed Chi Xiaoli's hand and shook it: "Mom, I want to eat ice cream."
Chi Xiaoli curled her lips: "I can take you to eat, but you are not allowed to tell your father."
"Um!"
Gu Anan nodded vigorously.
Jiang Xu held Tuanbao's hand and said, "Auntie Lin went to the bathroom and will be back soon."
Tuanbao looked at his hand being held, hesitated for a moment, but did not struggle.
The ice cream shop was right next to the playground. Chi Xiaoli bought four ice creams, one for each person.
When Jiang Xu handed the ice cream to Tuanbao, Tuanbao shook his head: "My dad doesn't allow me to eat this."
Jiang Xu was surprised: "Don't tell me you've never eaten ice cream."
Tuanbao nodded.
Chi Xiaoli asked: "Has your father ever taken you to an amusement park?"
Tuanbao shook his head.
“Oh my God!”
Chi Xiaoli looked sympathetic and said, "What kind of person is your father? No wonder he raised you to have a cold personality."
Jiang Xu signaled Chi Xiaoli with her eyes, asking her to stop talking, and then handed the ice cream to Tuanbao: "It's hot today, it's okay to eat half."
Tuanbao hesitated for a moment, took the ice cream and took a lick.
Then he swallowed it and said seriously, "It's delicious."
Jiang Xu patted his head and said, "If it tastes good, eat it. But only eat half of it. Children will get a cold and cough easily if they eat too much."
Tuanbao nodded obediently, ate half of it, and returned the ice cream to Jiang Xu.
After a while, Aunt Lin came back from the bathroom, looking very apologetic: "I'm sorry, I have an upset stomach. Thank you for helping me take care of Tuanbao."
"It's okay, he's quite good."
Jiang Xu lowered her eyes and looked at Tuanbao. From her angle, she could see his shiny black hair, long eyelashes, and chubby baby cheeks.
For some reason, she liked the little boy from the bottom of her heart.
"Let's go play over there fishing!"
Gu Anan took Chi Xiaoli and left.
Jiang Xu casually pulled Tuanbao along and followed.
Aunt Lin was very surprised to see this scene. Tuanbao didn't struggle at all and let others lead him. She couldn't help but look at Jiang Xu more.
Two hours later, Aunt Lin was about to take Tuanbao away.
Gu Anan said, "Tuanbao, the snowflake pastry my mom makes is delicious. How about I bring some for you tomorrow?"
Tuanbao was silent for a moment: "I'm not going to school tomorrow, I'm going to..."
"Okay, Tuanbao, let's go."
Aunt Lin interrupted him and left with Tuanbao.
They walked out of the mall and saw a black nanny car parked on the side of the road. Two bodyguards got out and helped Tuanbao open the car door.
When we got in the car, Tuanbao asked, "Why didn't you let me tell her that I have to see a doctor tomorrow?"
Aunt Lin shook her head: "I shouldn't say this."
Tuanbao looked out the window, watching the mall getting farther and farther away. "If they knew I was sick, they wouldn't want to play with me anymore?"
"Young Master, you are not sick."
Aunt Lin gently advised, "Just listen to the doctor and take your medicine obediently, and you will get better."
Tuanbao lowered his eyes and said nothing more.
Aunt Lin sighed silently.
More than a year ago, the young master suddenly became quiet, stopped crying and laughing, and was taken to the hospital where he was diagnosed with severe emotional deficit disorder.
The doctor said it was rare to see such a young child suffer from this disease.
Over the past year, I have changed many famous doctors and tried various treatments, but with little success.
Oh God, please bless the young master to get better soon.
—
Hospital, private room.
Gao Cheng looked at the man lying on the bed and sighed deeply.
After seeing Jiang Xu three days ago, Mr. He vomited blood and fell into a coma, and was then sent here for recuperation.
In order to avoid causing trouble, he was the only one who knew about this matter and he didn't even tell the old lady.
But dragging it on like this is not a solution.
The doctor said that Mr. He’s desire to live was very weak. He neither ate nor drank, and seemed to be in a trance. His whole body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of haze.
Gao Cheng advised him many times, but He Yanting didn't listen to a single word he said.
The person who tied the bell must untie it.
Do you really want to go find Jiang Xu?
Gao Cheng was hesitant.
At this moment, his cell phone rang. When he saw the caller, he suddenly felt a headache.
He took a deep breath, pressed the answer button, and put a smile on his face.
"Hey, young master, what's wrong?"
