Chapter 607 Extra: Master Xiao
After meeting Wen Jinran at the Sheng family's graduation banquet, Abin came up with the idea of letting Wen Jinran work as a family doctor at the Xiao family, and then match her up with his second master.
There was no other way. Abin was going crazy missing his young master.
Before Abin could secretly investigate Wen Jinran's personal information, especially his love life, Wen Jinran came to the Xiao family on his own.
"Hello, Master Er, I'm here to apply for the position of family doctor. Here is my resume."
Abin was cheering in his heart but did not dare to show it on his face. He swiftly took the resume and handed it respectfully to Mr. Xiao Erye.
After treatment, Mr. Xiao's originally pale face had a bit more color, his body was not as thin as before, and his fierce and gloomy eyes had a bit more humanity.
He took the resume with his bony hands and glanced through it.
Well, very good.
Wen Jinran was standing opposite him, always smiling appropriately and calmly, as if he was no different from an ordinary person.
Mr. Xiao thought of those people who had applied for the position of family doctor before. They were trembling with fear and caution, and didn't even dare to look him in the eye.
Is he that scary?
It was rare to meet a doctor with a good resume who was not afraid of him, so Mr. Xiao had no reason to refuse.
"Congratulations, Miss Wen. From today on, you are my personal doctor."
That day, Wen Jinran helped Mr. Xiao with acupuncture and massage.
Mr. Xiao sat on the bed with a blanket covering his legs.
Wen Jinran had prepared the needles for acupuncture. Seeing that he was nervously grabbing the blanket, he did not move and reminded him, "Second Master, please take the blanket away."
Mr. Xiao took a deep breath and slowly removed the blanket, revealing his legs that were still atrophied and deformed after treatment.
He closed his eyes and clenched the bed sheets tightly with both hands.
Let others see such an unbearable side of me again! Terrible emotions were surging in my heart, and I wished I could fly over and chop the person who caused the car accident into minced meat.
Those damn things!
"Don't be nervous, it doesn't hurt at all."
A gentle and soft voice sounded beside my ears, unconsciously calming the irritability in my heart.
He opened his eyes and saw her leaning forward slightly, her eyes serious and gentle, her white and slender fingers gently turning, and the thin needle fell on her leg.
The sunlight shone on her body, and the halo spread out little by little.
Master Xiao was mesmerized by what he saw.
Wen Jinran just stood up and met his dazed eyes.
There seemed to be a chill in her eyes.
Does she think he's a pervert?
He was a little overwhelmed for a moment and wanted to escape, to hide in a dark corner where no one was.
She suddenly smiled, revealing her shallow dimples: "Just say it doesn't hurt."
This smile made his expression relax slightly.
My heart also inexplicably calmed down.
She didn't hate him.
Why do we always make malicious assumptions about others based on our preconceived notions?
Why do we always choose to escape? There is hope that his legs will heal and he can walk short distances. As long as he undergoes good rehabilitation, he will be able to be like a normal person one day.
Not everyone was disgusted or pitied by his deformed legs.
For example, Sheng Beibei.
And, she in front of me.
"Ah——" Waves of pain like ants gnawing at bones came from the legs. Cold sweat streamed down Mr. Xiao's forehead and veins bulged on the back of his hands.
He bit his lower lip hard and cried out in pain.
Really, I wish I could just chop off my legs.
"Second Master."
She stood in the doorway and seemed about to run toward him.
He hurriedly turned his wheelchair so that his back was facing her and growled, "Don't come over here!"
It hurts, it's normal.
Just bear with it.
He didn't want his embarrassing side to be discovered, even by his personal doctor.
She stopped.
He saw her slightly furrowed brow in the reflection of the glass window.
There was an inexplicable emotion on her face.
It seems to be struggle, entanglement and pain.
Is he too fierce?
Did it scare her?
really.
She turned and ran away.
He lowered his head, a hint of sarcasm appearing on the corners of his mouth.
She left him too.
Yes, no one would care about a devil like him.
The pain in my heart is more unbearable than the pain in my legs.
Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door.
It's her!
He suddenly raised his head and saw through the window that she was walking towards him with hot water.
He didn't yell again.
She squatted down in front of him and wiped the sweat off his face with a hot towel.
They were so close that he could even hear her every breath and smell the faint fragrance on her body.
A warm and slightly itchy scent sprays on the skin.
He forgot the pain.
at night.
The wind howled, thunder roared, and the rain poured down.
"Dad, Mom!" Wen Jinran woke up from a nightmare, sat up abruptly, and looked blankly at the strange yet familiar room.
After an unknown amount of time, she hugged her legs tightly and buried her head in her knees.
Her shoulders shrugged and broken, suppressed sobs continued to come out.
How can I be soft-hearted towards him?
Bang!
The sound of something heavy falling.
Wen Jinran stood up and ran to Master Xiao's room.
He fell to the ground, his body curled up and trembling constantly. She subconsciously ran over and said, "Second Master, are you okay?"
He struggled to look at her and called out weakly, "Mom."
Wen Jinran paused, dragged Master Xiao to the bed, and examined him.
After a lot of effort, Mr. Xiao finally calmed down. She looked at him deeply, turned around and was about to leave.
The wrist was grabbed.
He is very strong.
Wen Jinran gritted his teeth: "Second Master."
"Don't go, don't leave me." Master Xiao pulled, and Wen Jinran fell down on the bed.
He held her in his arms, hugging her very tightly.
His voice was a little tearful: "Mom, don't leave me, I'm so scared."
Wen Jinran bit his lips, but tears rolled down uncontrollably, wetting his clothes. She buried herself in his arms and grabbed his pajamas.
They are very similar, having lost their loved ones and being left alone.
But what did her parents do wrong?
Unconsciously, Wen Jinran fell asleep. In her dream, she did not quarrel with her parents, and they did not leave her.
She really missed them.
When the first ray of sunlight in the early morning fell on Wen Jinran's face, she loosened her hands that were tightly clutching Xiao Erye's pajamas and left the room as if escaping.
After she left, Mr. Xiao opened his eyes.
He touched the wrinkled clothes.
My heart trembled slightly.
After the storm stopped, Mr. Xiao took Wen Jinran to see the sea.
They watched in silence as the sea water washed over the beach again and again, and the cool sea breeze carried his voice to her ears.
"I wanted to see the sea with my family, but I never got to do so."
Wen Jinran pursed her lips and suppressed her thoughts: "Me too." After a pause, she said: "This wish will never come true."
Hearing this, Master Xiao slowly frowned.
That night, information about Wen Jinran's background was delivered to Mr. Xiao Erye.
Bang--
He threw the information to the ground.
He indirectly killed her parents.
Does she know?
There was a flash of sinisterness and affection on her pale face. He recalled her thoughtful look when they first met, and her eyes that occasionally showed coldness.
He finally understood why she looked so painful and struggling.
Does she hate him?
It turned out that he was self-righteous and self-indulgent again.
In front of him are the medicines that Mr. Xiao takes daily.
Any movement of his hands or feet would slow down his recovery, cause him to suffer more pain, or even lose the chance to stand up.
Her parents were innocently killed because of him, so why should he be able to live well?
He trusted her now, and she could easily destroy him with her expertise.
Wen Jinran raised his hand——
"Mom, don't leave me, I'm so scared."
He is actually a victim too.
What's the difference between her and being an accomplice?
never mind.
Wen Jinran turned around and saw Master Xiao appear at the door at some point. He was sitting in a wheelchair, his dark eyes filled with murderous intent and inexplicable emotions.
She took an involuntary step back.
"Second Master, I..."
He pressed the controller on the electric wheelchair and slowly approached her. The subtle sound seemed to crush her heart heavily.
His deep eyes stared at her closely.
"You hate me and want to destroy my legs, don't you?"
Wen Jinran had long expected that her life story could not be hidden for long, but she just couldn't do anything to him.
She hated herself for being like this.
"I...have had such thoughts. I'm sorry."
really!
Master Xiao forced himself to suppress the anger that was spreading throughout his body. The bloody taste in his mouth reminded him again and again how he regarded those who hated him as salvation.
Oh, a despicable person like him shouldn't even hope for redemption.
He lowered his eyes and calmed down. What emerged in his mind was her every smile and frown during this period. He even wanted to keep her at all costs.
Even if she wanted to destroy him.
After a long moment, he raised his eyes and looked at her straight.
His voice was slightly hoarse: "Go away."
Wen Jinran walked to the door and paused: "Second Master, whether you believe it or not, I have never hurt you."
There has never been one before, and there won’t be one in the future.
"Second Master, Miss Wen did not tamper with the medicine."
The corners of Mr. Xiao's lips slightly shrunk, and a faint light flashed in his originally dead eyes.
Seeing this, Abin continued, "Your body is recovering very well."
In other words, Wen Jinran really didn't do anything bad.
Ah Bin could see his Second Master's feelings towards Wen Jinran, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Second Master, it's normal for Miss Wen to have such thoughts, but didn't she put them into practice?"
Master Xiao narrowed his eyes.
Yes, he indirectly killed her parents, so can't she be allowed to hate him?
She has been in the Xiao family for so long, if she really wanted to destroy his legs, she would have done it long ago.
He just drove her away like that.
seaside.
Wen Jinran stood on the observation deck. A breeze blew by, lifting the hem of her skirt and making it dance gently. She just stared into the distance quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.
Feeling warmth on her shoulder, she lowered her eyes and saw a black suit.
There was a tall figure beside him.
He stood beside her and put his coat on her.
"I think my wish has come true."
She knew what he meant.
Watching the sea with my family.
"Do you still need a private doctor?"
"lack."
He glanced at her sideways, his eyes full of morbid possessiveness: "I'm still missing a wife."
