Responsible

The cold wind sneaked into the ward through the gap between the two windows, blowing Liang Qingqing's hair across her face, making her feel itchy. She took this opportunity to reach out and tuck her hair behind her ears, and also avoided Fan Yanxing's slightly burning gaze.

After a long pause, she reorganized her words and pretended to be relaxed and said, "What do you want to say? You go first?" After

the words fell, she blinked her long eyelashes and mustered up the courage to look at him again. The two met in mid-air, but this time he lowered his head and avoided first, as if he could no longer maintain the calm on the surface after looking at each other for one more time.

Fan Yanxing stared at the corner of Liang Qingqing's clothes not far away, looking at the mud on it, and finally asked the question he wanted to ask just now, "What's wrong with you? It's not like you."

Liang Qingqing, whom he had seen in the past, was always exquisite and clean, and her clothes seemed casual, but it was still obvious that she had put some thought into them. But today, her clothes were messy, her body was covered with dirt, and even her hair was full of dried mud.

Fan Yanxing had an answer in his mind, but he couldn't believe it, so he could only try to hear the truth from her mouth in a joking way.

Noticing his gaze, Liang Qingqing pulled down the corner of her clothes uncomfortably. For the first time, she felt awkward in front of him. She had clearly planned that when Fan Yanxing woke up, she would take the opportunity to improve her favorability in front of him. She would tell him how worried she was about him after she learned that he was buried, how she spent her physical strength and energy to dig him out in the mud, and how she sacrificed her "looks" to save him... In

short, she exaggerated everything and then told him.

But when she really faced his question, she couldn't speak. She just felt awkward everywhere and everything she said was wrong.

Why? Was it

because she looked too embarrassed now? But this image was also something she had considered long ago. The purpose was to make it more convincing when she told everything with such a pitiful wolf-like appearance, which would also make Fan Yanxing more moved and distressed.

Otherwise, even if she had no clothes to change, she could use the hot water room in the hospital to wash her hair and body first.

Unable to figure out the reason, Liang Qingqing intertwined her hands, clasped her slender fingertips on her palms, and raised her voice to refute: "Why is it not like me? I went to help save people and ended up like this. You are lying in bed and can't move, but you are still thinking about mocking me for being dirty?"

After saying that, she bit her lower lip in annoyance. Was she having a brain attack? Why did she say this?

Now the direction of things was completely different from her expectations.

"I didn't." Hearing Liang Qingqing's words, Fan Yanxing was stunned for a moment, and then quickly denied that he had no intention of ridiculing her in this situation. In fact...

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. I just wanted to care about you, but I might not be very good at speaking, so..."

It was strange that the two of them had always been so prickly in their previous interactions, so that now when she heard him speak, she thought he was mocking her.

"Are you caring about me?" Liang Qingqing grasped the key point sharply, the ending tone slightly raised, and the corners of her mouth curled up, "Why didn't you say

it earlier?" "..." He clearly expressed this meaning at the beginning.

"My fault." Fan Yanxing didn't want to argue with her about whether he had told her about this earlier. After admitting his mistake, he turned around and asked, "You said you went to save people? Don't women and children in the village generally not allowed to go to the front line?"

"No, but weren't you buried?" Liang Qingqing blurted out her true thoughts without thinking. After she finished speaking, she wanted to slap herself twice.

On the one hand, she felt that this sentence was too straightforward. Who knows what Fan Yanxing would think when he heard it. If it affected their harmonious relationship now, disrupted her strategy plan, and scared people away, it would be a loss.

On the other hand, he felt that maybe he should play straight in this way to win this high-altitude flower early. Otherwise, with her mouth that would go crazy from time to time, it would take a long time to succeed in conquering her.

So he was particularly entangled, and his expression became a little distorted.

Sure enough, after listening to Fan Yanxing, he was silent for a long time before clearing his throat. When he spoke again, he directly pointed it out: "Did you go there to save me?" Hearing this

, Liang Qingqing tightened her grip on her palms, her eyes drifted away for some reason and she dared not meet Fan Yanxing's gaze again. She looked up at the sky and the ground but didn't look at him, so she didn't notice that he was pulling the sheets in the same way.

The silence between the two was broken by Liang Junqiang who rushed into the room the next second.

"Hurry, the water is here, Yanxing, drink it quickly." Liang Junqiang, this rough man, was only thinking about Fan Yanxing's desire to drink water, and he didn't notice the undercurrent in the room at all. He stretched out his hand and gently pulled Liang Qingqing apart, then squeezed in between the two of them and handed the cup of water to Fan Yanxing's mouth.

Feeling the coldness on his lips, Fan Yanxing first looked at Liang Qingqing over Liang Junqiang, and when he saw that she had turned around and left, he smiled and said, "Thank you, brother Junqiang, I'll do it myself."

"Why are you being polite to me? Drink it quickly." Seeing that he didn't seem to be showing off, Liang Junqiang let go and put the cup of water in his hand.

Because he had not had water for a long time, Fan Yanxing drank all the water in the cup in one breath, and then he felt alive again. At this time, Liang Qingqing also came back with a doctor, "He just woke up not long ago, please check him again, doctor."

After a long examination, the doctor said that fortunately most of the injuries were superficial, and he would be discharged after two days of hospitalization and observation. Liang Qingqing thanked the doctor repeatedly and sent him to the door before returning to the ward.

"Those who survive a disaster will have good fortune in the future." Liang Qingqing adjusted her mood and got rid of the inexplicable emotions before. At this time, she was much more normal when facing Fan Yanxing again.

Liang Junqiang nodded in agreement, then remembered something and said in a low voice, "Yes, Yanxing was buried for such a long time and there was no major problem with his body. This is really God's blessing. I heard that one of the first two people who were rescued had a broken arm and is still lying upstairs unable to move."

At this point, Liang Junqiang changed the subject: "But when you were just dug out, Yanxing, you were not breathing. If it weren't for your little sister saving you mouth to mouth... Wuwuwu..."

Liang Qingqing quickly covered Liang Junqiang's mouth, "Second brother! The doctor just said that he wanted to feed Fan Zhiqing something to eat. Did you see anyone selling porridge when you went to the cafeteria just now?"

"Mouth to mouth?" Fan Yanxing pursed his lips subconsciously and repeated Liang Junqiang's words in confusion.

After seeing Liang Qingqing's reaction, he immediately understood what was going on. When

he was in Beijing before, he saw doctors in the hospital performing emergency measures on unconscious patients, one of which was mouth-to-mouth ventilation to help the patient breathe.

Combined with Liang Junqiang's words, Liang Qingqing also used this method to save him?

Thinking of this, Fan Yanxing's eyes involuntarily fell on Liang Qingqing's lips, which were opening and closing. The color was pink like a peach soaked in water, and the shape was soft and plump. He suddenly couldn't imagine what it would feel like to cover such lips.

The more he thought about it, the faster his heartbeat became. After a while, it lost its normal frequency. His breathing became rapid, and even his palms were sweating.

Fan Yanxing took two deep breaths, trying to calm his abnormal reaction, but his body was determined to go against him. The contact of lips that did not exist in his memory now filled his brain, causing his body temperature to rise rapidly. The tips of his ears turned red in an instant, and then spread to his neck.

"It seems they sell porridge." Liang Junqiang was interrupted and began to think about whether he had seen porridge in the cafeteria.

Liang Qingqing was relieved to see that he was successfully misled, "Do you want to go and have a look?"

"Okay, then I'll go buy some and buy our dinner as well."

"Do you want me to go with you?"

"No, it's raining outside, I can go by myself."

After saying that, Liang Junqiang said hello to Fan Yanxing and left quickly. They were the only two people left in the room again. In the silence, two pairs of eyes crossed in the room, like two sparks colliding in the dark, making a burning hissing sound, dangerous and charming.

"Thank you for saving me." Fan Yanxing turned his head away. The lights in the hospital were not on yet. The dim light from the window shone on him, making the blush on his face more obvious. His eyes, which were usually calm, were confused, hiding a bit of helplessness.

Liang Qingqing found him very novel, and at the same time realized that he was shy.

This thank you showed that Fan Yanxing knew that she kissed him mouth to mouth to save people, not for any other reason, but even though he knew in his heart that this "kiss" did not contain any other meaning, he was still shy.

Could she understand that he was not disgusted by their unexpected close contact?

If this is the case, the best thing she should do now is to take advantage of his shyness, continue to pursue the victory, and further tease him, the effect will definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

But what is going on with that trace of shyness deep in her heart! How could she be as shy as Fan Yanxing? Fan

Yanxing is obviously the prey, and she is the hunter chasing him!

Liang Qingqing covered her throbbing heart, which was beating faster and faster. Her behavior in this ward today was too abnormal. No, she became abnormal from the moment she learned that Fan Yanxing was buried.

Why? What happened to her?

After thinking about it, Liang Qingqing, who had no experience in love, could only attribute it to the threat to her happiness, so her mind would be full of random thoughts, because if anything happened to Fan Yanxing, the beautiful future she had planned would be ruined.

This can't go on any longer. The most important thing now is to keep a clear mind and keep moving towards the door of success. As for the rest, leave it all aside!

After figuring this out, Liang Qingqing no longer bothered about her abnormal emotions. She smiled and took a few steps in the direction of Fan Yanxing. She sat on the chair next to the bed and softened her voice, "You don't have to thank me, and don't take that matter...to heart. This is what I should do. Didn't you save me before?"

She was so sensible, Fan Yanxing must be even more moved!

Don't take it to heart? Fan Yanxing's eyelashes trembled, and after hesitating for two seconds, he finally said what he wanted to say most since he knew about this matter, "But no matter what, in front of so many people, we... I have to be responsible for you."

Hearing this, Liang Qingqing almost nodded, but the responsibility gained through moral kidnapping would not last long. What she wanted was for Fan Yanxing to be willing to marry her and provide her with a good material life for the rest of his life, not just temporary goodness.

And this requires an emotional foundation, and it is right to play the long game and catch the big fish, so she swallowed back the agreement that was about to come out of her mouth, and waved her hand half-jokingly, "You really don't have to be responsible? Then according to what you said, a doctor has to be responsible every time he saves a patient, doesn't it mean you can't even marry her?"

Logically, he would be relieved to hear her say that he didn't have to be responsible. After all, marriage is a serious matter and he didn't want to decide on his other half for the rest of his life so hastily. As for the life-saving grace, it is not a bad idea to compensate with material things.

But Fan Yanxing felt like something was stuck in his throat at this moment, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he didn't show it on his face. He barely curled his lips and said, "What you said makes some sense."

"It makes a lot of sense." Liang Qingqing felt that she had given Fan Yanxing a chance to step down, so she changed the subject and said, "The body is the capital of the revolution. The most important thing now is to take care of the body first. The rest is trivial."

Fan Yanxing suddenly didn't want to discuss this matter with Liang Qingqing anymore, and suddenly changed the subject and said, "I don't have any money on hand now. After returning to the village..."

"It's a trivial matter, let's talk about it later."

"..." Fan Yanxing nodded, and then thought of something very important, "How are you going to get back to the village at night?"

There were no cars going back to the village at this time, and it was not realistic to walk back after dark. Moreover, with Liang Qingqing's physique, her legs would probably be useless halfway through the walk.

"I'm not going back today. I'll see if I can borrow a bed from the hospital to sleep at night. Besides, you can't leave your place alone here, and my second brother and I can take care of you more or less." Liang Qingqing had already thought about it. A friend in need is a friend indeed. At this time, of course, she had to stay by Fan Yanxing's side.

"Thank you for your hard work." It was the first time in Fan Yanxing's life that he was lying on a hospital bed and letting others take care of him. A little embarrassed appeared on his face, and he nodded to Liang Qingqing and thanked her.

"If you can get well soon, all this hardship won't matter." Liang Qingqing rested her arms on her knees, held her chin with her hands, and looked at Fan Yanxing without blinking with her eyes curved into a beautiful crescent shape.

The latter's heart skipped a beat, but he remembered Liang Qingqing's words that had just rejected him, and for a moment he felt extremely complicated, and almost closed his eyes as if he was escaping, "I, I'm a little tired, I want to rest for a while."

"Then you sleep for a while, and I'll call you when my second brother comes back, eat something and then go to sleep." Liang Qingqing was very considerate, thinking that Fan Yanxing had just woken up and didn't have much energy, and she got up and carefully covered him with a blanket.

Feeling the small hands sliding on the quilt in front of his chest, Fan Yanxing's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he clenched his palms under the quilt.

"A-choo."

Not long after, a suppressed sneeze sounded suddenly, followed by a group of footsteps leaving. The door of the ward opened and closed. When he was the only one left in the room, Fan Yanxing slowly opened his eyes and looked at the door with a worried look. Is
