Xue Qijing was completely unprepared and was suddenly yelled at by Sister Ling, and he was stunned.
Seeing him stunned, Sister Ling nodded with satisfaction. When she passed by Minghan, she frowned and asked in a low voice: "How much is the salary for this 24-hour personal bodyguard? If it's too expensive, I won't agree!"
Minghan was also stunned by Sister Ling's words. It took him a long time to recover and he said awkwardly: "Sister Ling, it's very cheap. Only one thousand yuan more than the average bodyguard!" However, he was secretly thinking in his heart that if Sister Ling really made Xue Qijing angry, he might fire anyone in a fit of rage.
After hearing the price, Sister Ling said nothing and left the ward directly.
After finally sending Sister Ling away, Xue Qijing and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. Minghan looked up and saw Mingxi staring out the window, while Xue Qijing was staring straight at Mingxi. He coughed twice, "Grandma, it's getting late. I think we should go out first and you should have a good rest!"
Ming Xi withdrew her gaze and raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "You all should go home and rest! Since you have a personal bodyguard guarding you, it should be fine!"
Xue Qijing secretly raised his eyebrows at them, and Minghan nodded in understanding, "Oh... Oh... OK, let's go back and rest first, and come to the hospital tomorrow!"
After saying that, the five of them quickly evacuated the room like a gust of wind.
Seeing how quickly they left the room, Mingxi was a little surprised. However, this was only a flash in her mind. She raised her eyes and smiled at Xue Qi, then used her hands to support herself and moved her body, wanting to lie down and rest. However, as soon as she exerted force on her arms, she felt a piercing pain in her left shoulder.
Xue Qi was shocked to see this, and immediately stepped forward nervously, helped her lie down, and asked worriedly: "Does it hurt a lot?"
Mingxi lay down and exhaled. She looked at the man who suddenly came over and saw that he was frowning. Thinking of what he just said, she couldn't help but frown. How could this man not look strange? Just now, the tone of his speech was as if he was talking to someone very familiar.
"What's your name?" Mingxi asked softly.
Xue Qi frowned in shock, glanced at Ming Xi, and after a long while he stammered, "Han... Qi!"
He never thought that Mingxi would ask his name. For a moment, his mind was confused and he could only think of this.
"Haha, you and I have the same last name!" Mingxi grinned happily.
Xue Qi was surprised to see that she was laughing happily, so he became happy too and leaned over to tuck the quilt for her.
However, when Xue Qijing was covering her with the quilt, perhaps because he was too close to her, Mingxi suddenly smelled his scent. Her face changed slightly, and she asked in a surprised voice, "Why do you smell the same as him?"
Xue Qi was shocked and looked at Ming Xi in confusion. After a long while, he asked in confusion, "Young Grandma, whose smell do you think I smell like?" Who was the "he" she was referring to
Ming Xi sat up from the bed with some excitement, grabbed Xue Qijing's arm and asked loudly: "Why do you smell the same as him? Tell me, why are they the same?" She was very sensitive to his smell. His smell was unique in the world, and that smell could not be faked by any perfume or anything else.
Xue Qi frowned in shock, looking at Ming Xi's big eyes, which were full of hope. Her gaze was so hot that it hurt his eyes.
However, he was very clear-headed. He knew that now was not the time to reveal his identity to her, so he smiled and said, "Grandma, I smell like a classic Gucci perfume. Could it be that the 'he' you mentioned also uses this perfume?"
Ming Xi was slightly startled, and her eyes flickered. She was not interested in men's perfume at all, so how did she know
"Young lady, go to rest quickly! It's too late now. Resting too late is not good for your health!" Xue Qijing said gently.
Mingxi wanted to ask more questions, but when she heard him call her "young grandma", the hope that had just been burning in her heart was instantly shattered. How could he call her "young grandma"? How could he be a bodyguard
Thinking of this, Mingxi could only lie down obediently. She stared at Xue Qijing anxiously, as if she wanted to find a familiar mark on his face. However, apart from the eyes and the facial contour, she seemed to find nothing else familiar.
"Close your eyes!" Xue Qijing said softly but commandingly. And for some reason, Mingxi obediently closed her eyes.
Seeing Mingxi being so well-behaved, Xue Qi nodded in satisfaction. He didn't know if it was a habit or something else, but he leaned over and wanted to kiss Mingxi on the forehead. However, as soon as he leaned over, he seemed to realize something, so he forced himself to raise his head.
That night, he sat on the sofa beside the bed and watched her fall asleep without blinking. He never knew that just watching her sleep gave him an indescribable satisfaction. He remembered that at two o'clock in the morning, three hours after she fell asleep, the sky suddenly started to rain heavily with thunder.
Mingxi was awakened by the thunder. He hurriedly closed the window. Mingxi didn't know whether she had a nightmare or was too afraid of thunder. She was lying on the sickbed, shaking violently. He remembered that she was shaking so violently that night that he had to gently hold her in his arms. This little woman actually fell asleep as soon as she touched his arms.
That night, he didn't care if his beard would hurt her, and kissed her for a long time, from her forehead, nose, cheeks to her red lips, he kissed her carefully and seriously. But this woman was sleeping so soundly that she was taken advantage of by others without even realizing it.
The next day, early in the morning, when Mingxi opened her eyes, she found that Sister Ling had come. Last night, she slept very well again. All night long, her breath was filled with the smell that she was familiar with and attached to.
Seeing that Mingxi was in good spirits, Sister Ling carefully took out the tonic from the thermos bucket and said with a smile, "Drink less milk and drink the soup first!"
Mingxi frowned but didn't refuse. She gently opened her mouth and took the spoon handed to her by Sister Ling. After looking around the room, she asked calmly, "Sister Ling, where is the bodyguard?!"
"I chased him out!" Thinking of him, Sister Ling's tone became a little colder.
Mingxi nodded and said nothing more. She drank a few sips and thought about how that person had taken care of her all night and probably didn't sleep, so she felt a little guilty.
"Sister Ling, ask someone to bring in a long sofa!" Mingxi actually felt strange that she was always thinking about the bodyguard. She was attracted by his beauty, but the beard blocked most of his face, so she couldn't see his original appearance clearly. She had a good impression of him, but how long had he and her known each other? Less than 24 hours.
Could it be because of the smell on him
Thinking of this, Mingxi frowned even more tightly.
"Young grandma, what do you want the sofa for?" Sister Ling asked in confusion.
"Nothing. I just thought that if I get tired of lying in bed, I can lie on the sofa. I have to stay in the hospital for at least half a month!" Mingxi said humbly. She didn't dare to look at Sister Ling and lowered her head to drink the soup.
"That's right! You should be tired of lying in bed for so long. After you finish drinking the soup, I will go to the furniture store myself and help you choose!" Sister Ling smiled gently.
Mingxi nodded, and then drank the whole night's hot drink obediently.
Seeing Mingxi finish a whole bowl, Sister Ling knew that Mingxi couldn't drink any more, so she packed up the thermos bucket and said, "Little nanny, I'll go help you pick a sofa now, and I'll come back to keep you company later!"
