Chapter 176: Dark



Chapter 176: Dark

Two days have passed since Xu Xiaoyue woke up.

Wang Jianhua was originally worried that after Xu Xiaoyue was rescued, she would throw a tantrum and refuse proper treatment.

Unexpectedly, the girl's temper seemed to have softened a lot.

Every day she cooperates with the doctor's examinations, takes medicine and eats meals obediently.

What no one knew was that the wrist-cutting incident was deliberately planned by Xu Xiaoyue.

To be precise, this was part of her plan.

She was really fed up with being treated like a bird in a cage, having to wait for men to take the initiative every day.

There is no construction without destruction. If she wants to escape from the villa, she must do something that will make the man dare not lock her up again.

Only when he realizes that there will be things more painful than leaving her, will the man wake up and let her go.

Yan Ye was very careful in guarding against her in this regard, thanks to Xiao Xiao.

Xiaoxiao came into the villa later. The first time Xu Xiaoyue saw her, she knew that she would be of great help to her.

Xiaoxiao sat on the edge of the bed, lowering her head and peeling an apple carefully.

When she was halfway through peeling the skin, she looked outside and after confirming that no one was around, she whispered to Xu Xiaoyue, "Sister Xiaoyue, Mr. Yan has been guarding you without eating or drinking for the days you were unconscious."

"But now that you're awake, why doesn't he come to see you again?"

Xiaoxiao's face was full of seriousness, as if she was really thinking about the contrast between before and after. She really couldn't understand Yan Ye's thoughts.

Some say he doesn't care about Sister Xiaoyue, but a man's condition can't be faked.

But if I were to say she was sad, it was because Sister Xiaoyue had been conscious for two days, and doctors had come to check on her one after another, but the man was nowhere to be seen.

Xu Xiaoyue took the apple from Xiaoxiao's hand. Of course she knew why.

Because of guilt and fear.

He locked himself in the villa and he certainly never thought that one day she would commit suicide.

Will protest in such a decisive way.

And what she wants is the man's guilt.

Xu Xiaoyue didn't want to eat the apple anymore after taking two bites. The apples in this season have less juice and taste grainy.

Although it didn't taste very good, Xu Xiaoyue didn't want to waste food, so she mechanically put the apple into her mouth with a look of despair.

Xiaoxiao noticed the girl's reluctance, reached out and snatched the apple, and put it in the basket next to her.

"If it doesn't taste good, don't eat it."

Xu Xiaoyue yawned, blinked her eyelashes, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Are you sleepy? If you are, just take a nap." Xiaoxiao finished speaking and did not stay any longer to disturb others.

Xu Xiaoyue lay in the quilt for less than a quarter of an hour, but her eyes were so sleepy that she couldn't open them.

I don’t know what happened today, but I felt particularly sleepy.

Xiaoxiao had just walked away for a while when she turned a corner without noticing Yan Ye behind her.

Yan Ye paused at the door of Xu Xiaoyue's ward, with his hand on the door handle. He hesitated for a while, and was reluctant to push the door open.

He stood at the door for a quarter of an hour, closed his eyes, and prepared himself mentally before pushing the door open.

The smell of disinfectant filled the ward. The girl was lying on the bed, snoring as if she was fast asleep. Her chest rose and fell with her breathing, and she looked like a quiet painting of Sleeping Beauty.

It's only been two days since he last saw her, but the man always felt that the girl in the bed looked a little thinner.

There was an IV needle on the girl's slender wrist. The place where the tape fixed it was a little red, and the fluid in the bottle was dripping down very slowly.

Yan Ye leaned over and touched her exposed hand, which was icy cold.

He carefully sat down on the edge of the bed and held the girl's hand in his, trying to warm her.

I lost weight and my lips became dry and cracked.

But this does not detract from the girl's beauty at all, it just adds a hint of frailty.

Yan Ye admitted that he also had cowardly moments. The person had been awake for two days, but he didn't dare to come to see her.

I only dared to stay quietly by Xu Xiaoyue's side for a while while she was asleep.

He thought that the first thing Xu Xiaoyue would do when she woke up would be to make a noise. After all, she was very delicate and couldn't stand any anger.

Yan Ye was ready to apologize to people in person.

He was too extreme. He only thought about how to hold her tightly in his hands and ignored her feelings.

Now that she was able to wake up safely, the man was already satisfied enough.

He didn't dare to have any other extravagant hopes.

Yan Ye sat beside the bed, staring straight at the girl with his dark eyes filled with thick, undispersible mist.

Xu Xiaoyue blinked and moved her legs slightly, feeling like something was wrong.

The soles of my feet are hot, and my waist is also hot.

It is already the winter season. Air conditioners in this era were not as popular as they are in later generations, and the prices were very expensive.

The ward was colder at night than during the day. There were many times when the girl woke up in the middle of the night with her body freezing cold.

Even if I curl up my legs when I sleep, I will still be woken up by the cold, or I will wake up the next day with back pain, which is more uncomfortable than not sleeping at all.

But this time when she woke up, she felt the quilt was warm, so hot that her forehead was sweating.

She lowered her head and looked down. No wonder it was so hot. She wondered who had put three hot water bottles in the quilt.

Two under the feet and one around the waist.

Pour boiling water into it, and the outside of the hot water bottle is wrapped with a layer of densely knitted sweater, which is warm but not hot.

Xu Xiaoyue kicked something down in a fit of anger.

He had the courage to sneak into her ward while she was sleeping, and the courage to stuff a hot water bottle into her mouth openly, but he didn't have the courage to meet her.

Xu Xiaoyue glanced towards the window. It was just a nap and it was almost dark.

There were knocks on the door. "Sister Xiaoyue, can I come in?"

Xu Xiaoyue recognized it, it was a small voice.

"Sure, come in."

As soon as she finished speaking, the door was opened.

Xiaoxiao was holding a tray in her hands.

Clear stewed pig's trotter soup, stir-fried shrimps, and blanched vegetables.

The three dishes were placed on the table one by one, still steaming, and the rich aroma of the food was even more fragrant.

"Sister Xiaoyue, let's eat. The hospital's dinner service is quite late today."

Xiaoxiao unpacked the chopsticks and handed them to the girl in front of her.

"Huh? Is this from the hospital?"

Xu Xiaoyue's cheeks bulged slightly from eating, and when she heard the little complaint, she looked at the girl.

"Yeah, but today is pretty weird."

"Before, the hospital always sent meals between 5:30 and 6:00. Today, you said you wanted to take a nap, and I saw that you were still not awake after 6:00, so I thought about finding a small kitchen to heat up the food."

"I didn't expect that the meals at the hospital would be delivered later than usual."

Xiaoxiao said this with a hint of joy in her tone.

However, Xu Xiaoyue understood what was going on as soon as she heard it.
