When she appeared by his side, she was cautious and gentle, but when she left him, it stopped abruptly like a heavy rain in summer.
Qiao Han sat in the pitch-black room, with only a faint light coming in through the gaps in the thick curtains. He first sat there for a while, until he was sure that he really had a body, and then smiled lightly. , turned the wheelchair to the window, and pulled the curtains aside.
The sunlight suddenly dazzled his eyes and shone on his face. He looked in the mirror behind him, and there was a handsome but extremely pale man reflected in the mirror. His cheekbones were protruding, and his whole person looked extremely thin and gloomy. The large nightgown was very empty on his body, and it could be seen that there was no flesh on his body.
Compared with the once strong physique, it is simply unsightly.
But for Qiao Han, once he had nothing in the Wangchuan River, even his body was in disarray. Now, although his legs are paralyzed, he is indeed alive. This is enough.
He couldn't help but want to laugh, but tried to practice smiling in front of the mirror, only to find that it was ugly and scary. Obviously it has such a face, so good-looking, but it looks like a ghost when it is ridiculous.
He thought, he should practice hard and learn to put on a smiling mask.
At this time, the door was knocked suddenly, Qiao Han put away his smile, "Who?"
"Master, it's me."
"come in."
The person who came in was Qiao Han's housekeeper, who was currently in charge of his daily necessities. Ever since his legs were paralyzed, Qiao Han had moved out of the bustling city and chose to live in a house in the suburbs. It was not to heal his wounds, but to escape from the past. Everything that makes me sad and embarrassing. His anger was nothing compared to the past. A person as proud as he was couldn't bear others' contempt and insult to him.
Even though he is still rich, even though his appearance is still beautiful, his disabled body makes him full of inferiority complex. Once he skied and rock climbed, now he can't even walk. He didn't even want to do rehabilitation, so he resolutely gave up on himself. So now the legs have begun to show signs of shrinking, and if the trouser legs are rolled up, they will reveal a sickly white color.
"Master, why are you..." The housekeeper was a little excited when he saw the curtains being pulled open. Could it be that the young master doesn't want to continue to waste his life anymore? Recalling the high-spirited young master in the past, and looking at the gloomy and unpredictable young master now, the housekeeper felt very sad. He looked at Qiao Han with anticipation in his eyes.
Qiao Han took a breath and said, "The room is too dark, I want to bask in the sun."
"Okay, okay, okay..." The housekeeper spoke repeatedly, and it was obvious that he was really happy for Qiao Han. There were even tears in his eyes, and he came forward to push Qiao Han's wheelchair and said, "The young master will go to the study to meet the new nurse first, and I will ask someone to clean the room again." Ever since the young master's legs were paralyzed in a climbing accident, he No one is allowed to enter the room, let alone ask someone to clean it. The housekeeper has always been worried. Now that Qiao Han can figure it out, he is happier than anyone else.
After all, he was the child he watched and grew up with, so he couldn't bear Qiao Han to suffer even the slightest harm.
Qiao Han nodded and said, "I can do it myself."
The butler stood where he was, watching Qiao Han turn his wheelchair out of the room, and quickly wiped away the tears that were pouring out of his eyes, and went to call someone to clean up.
Qiao Han found the study room based on the memory of the original owner in his mind, pushed open the door, and a girl who was waiting on the sofa immediately stood up. He looked nervous.
Qiao Han used to be full of disgust when he saw this girl, and thought she was annoying everywhere, but now the male ghost saw this girl, but he only felt beautiful.
After staying in the Wangchuan River for a long time, beautiful things can be seen at a glance. Unlike myself who was covered in filth and was on the verge of madness, this was a clean person without any darkness, just like a delicate flower.
"Hi, I'm Qiao Han."
"Mr. Qiao, you, hello, my name is Luo Xi." The girl bowed to him, raised her head and glanced at Qiao Han quickly, then immediately lowered her face with a touching blush: "I, I am The nurse who came to report today is here to take care of your rehabilitation."
Qiao Han nodded: "I know."
"Eh?" Luo Xi was taken aback. "You, you know?"
"Yeah." Qiao Han turned to the desk, "The butler told me all about it."
"Is that so." Luo Xi was a little apprehensive. "I will work hard, Mr. Qiao, you must believe me."
Qiao Han hummed again, and glanced at her lightly, the girl was so clean, it reminded him of his former self. Although he can't remember clearly, he still remembers that the person he loves contemptuously said that he was not clean enough.
Not clean enough.
What is cleanliness? Probably just like Luoxi, it is as pure white as water, as clean as a piece of white paper, without any ink stains. Going forward for the one you like, just asking for something without getting anything in return, such a beauty... Qiao Han narrowed his eyes, as if he still couldn't bear the strong light. The lighting in the study room was very good, so he couldn't see clearly, and his eyes were still a little uncomfortable, so he took out a tissue to wipe his eyes, but Luo Xi hesitated for a few seconds, took out a small bottle of eye drops from his bag, timidly Said: "This is what I usually use, Mr. Qiao, would you like to try it?"
Qiao Han glanced at her and shook his head: "Thank you, no need." It's just that he hasn't been exposed to such strong sunlight for a long time, so he is a little uncomfortable, and he will be fine after a while.
Luo Xi was not unhappy when she was rejected, she just blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Qiao Han. Qiao Han's eyes were more comfortable before he had the time to look at the girl.
Luo Xi does not look beautiful, but she is also a very delicate girl, with harmonious facial features, very good-looking, white skin, and a slender figure. The most important thing is that she gives people a very comfortable feeling, surprisingly eye-catching edge. Qiao Han said to her: "It's enough for us to meet up. Let's start recovering from this afternoon. The housekeeper at your place has already prepared it for you."
Luo Xi nodded quickly: "Okay."
But after she finished speaking, she couldn't help but secretly glanced at Qiao Han again, and when she realized that the other party was also looking at her, her face blushed again, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.
The emotion of liking is so strong and obvious, who can't see it? Qiao Han sighed softly in his heart, and said to her: "Miss Luo, can you do me a favor?"
"Okay, what's the matter?"
"Help me tell the housekeeper, let them tidy up the training room now, and I will start my rehabilitation in the afternoon. Although I don't know if I can walk, it's good to be able to stand up."
"It's definitely possible!" Luo Xi blurted out, and when Qiao Han looked at him, his face flushed slightly, and he began to stammer again: "I, I mean... as long as you work hard, you can do it. Your injury is not particularly serious , as long as you recover properly, you will definitely get better. Although you can no longer do strenuous exercise like before, you can’t tell if you usually walk or run slower. I have taken notes and will definitely help you Yes!" Her young and kind face was full of seriousness, Qiao Han looked at her, and his heart softened unconsciously, "I understand, then I will ask you to teach me a lot from now on." Sitting in a wheelchair cannot bow, He nodded his head lightly to express his thanks, making Luo Xi blush again, and hurriedly bowed.
After she walked out of the room, Qiao Han relaxed.
He stretched out his hands and stared intently at the lines on his palms. It was so real and beautiful. In fact, he wanted to laugh out loud. After staying in the Wangchuan River for so long, he finally had a body, and even had the ability to return to the river. An opportunity in a world of its own.
It's just—he suddenly remembered something. There was a computer on the desk. He first turned on the computer, then clicked on the webpage. When he was about to enter keywords to search, he was taken aback—what did he want to search for
At that moment just now, he seemed to know what he was going to do, but now he forgot. Qiao Han stared at the search engine in a daze. After a while, he let go of the mouse.
Forget it, don’t think about it if you can’t think about it, and you will always think about it slowly in the future.
Qiao Han turned the wheelchair and left the study. The housekeeper also came over and said that he had taken Miss Luo to her room. For the convenience of rehabilitation, she lived next to Qiao Han's bedroom. He was careful not to offend him, or to say something wrong and make him sad, but Qiao Han didn't care, he was already very happy to have a physical body, and this leg was not bad, so he couldn't understand this body Why is the original owner of the body so dark. The little girl came here specially to rehabilitate him. He first satirized him with sneering words, and then passively resisted and refused to rehabilitate. No wonder he couldn't stand up until he died.
When the male ghost possessed this body, he accepted all the memories of the original owner. In fact, this is a very simple story. Qiao Han accidentally had an accident when he was climbing with his girlfriend. He only cared about saving his girlfriend and fell down. After waking up, his legs were paralyzed, and his girlfriend left him because of this. He became negative and pessimistic, completely different from his former self, and lived a muddle-headed life every day.
Not only did he move to live in a quiet suburban area, he even locked himself in his room every day to blame himself, didn't want to do anything, didn't want to hear anything, immersed in sadness and low self-esteem and couldn't extricate himself.
When Luo Xi broke into his world, he was full of disgust and hostility towards her. He felt that the other party was here to laugh at him, so he made things difficult for Luo Xi, but Luo Xi didn't say anything, and kept trying to help him .
Later, Qiao Han was finally moved by Luo Xi. After several months of uninterrupted rehabilitation, he was finally able to stand up, and even had an affair with Luo Xi. Luo Xi liked him. Qiao Han knew this, but he himself What kind of feelings he has for Luo Xi, he himself can't explain clearly, so the two of them just spend their time like this.
Until one day, his ex-girlfriend came to him and asked him to lend her a sum of money. Qiao Han refused to lend her money, and kicked her out. Afterwards, he lost his temper and no one could persuade him.
Then, not long after, Luo Xi accidentally gave Qiao Han his ex-girlfriend, and the statue of Qiao Han carved by the other party was smashed, which made Qiao Han furious, and fired Luo Xi without saying a word, and Let her never show up again.
Luo Xi stood at the gate of the villa for three days and three nights, it was pouring rain, thunder and lightning, he didn't feel bad, it was the housekeeper who sent the umbrella and food, but Luo Xi didn't help. Just stand there.
She kept her head up, and from where she stood she could see the window of Qiao Han's bedroom on the second floor. Their relationship was already very good before this, they even exchanged a kiss, she liked this man so much, so she couldn't bear to give up anyway. Especially when he hasn't fully recovered, how can she leave him
So she thought, she had to keep an eye on her, what if he looked at her but was ignored by her? She liked Qiao Han so much, she didn't even expect that Qiao Han would come down to find her, after all, his leg was still not healed, and it would hurt a little on cloudy and rainy days, as long as he looked at her was enough.
In that case, she would have the courage and reason to convince herself to keep going.
But for three days and three nights, the curtains in the bedroom on the second floor did not move at all.
In the last night, when it rained surprisingly heavily, Luo Xi turned around and left. From then on, there was no news, and he did not know whether he was alive or dead.
She came in a menacing manner, and came flying after learning that he was injured, bringing happiness and sunshine to everyone living in this villa, and giving Qiao Han hope and happiness in life, such a girl who loves to laugh and play, leaves He was so quiet.
Since then, Qiao Han has never seen Luo Xi again, even though he spent the rest of his life looking for it.
It wasn't until a long, long time later that he knew that Luo Xi had left country Z, went to a dangerous war zone to help children and women rebuild their homes, and became a doctor without borders. Later, because he was protecting a child and died in the hands of a terrorist organization, he was punished. A lot of torture.
Luo Xi had no family, so Qiao Han went to bring her body back in person. The girls back then were no longer young, but more beautiful and dazzling.
This has become his lifelong regret and heart disease, so he hopes to make Luoxi happy, even if he is not the one who gives her happiness.
The male ghost looked at himself reflected in the window, with a very shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, he would not fall in love with Luo Xi, even if the other party was a good girl, Qiao Han's wish was to make Luo Xi happy, so that one for Luo Xi It doesn't matter whether he is a happy person or not.
In the afternoon, with the help of Luo Xi, he tried to stand up with a cane, but it was not an easy task. Luo Xi was a very good girl, but Qiao Han didn't know why the other party fell in love with him. At that time He is useless, irascible and inferior, and he still refuses to let go of his ridiculous pride. He clearly hopes that he is in front of him, but he refuses to reach out to grab it, so he is alone all his life.
After finally standing on crutches, after standing for a few minutes, his unconscious legs began to shake. This kind of frustration made the male ghost inside Qiao Han feel competitive, but Luo Xi came to stop him, saying yes Do not take too long, it is not good for the body.
He sat back in the wheelchair obediently and wiped his sweat with a towel. Luo Xi poured him a glass of water. Considering that he was sitting in a wheelchair and it would be impolite to speak standing up, he squatted in front of Qiao Han, propped his chin with both hands, and said with a smile: "Mr. If you recover for an hour, it will be very helpful to your body." He said as if he remembered something. "Ah, by the way, your legs need to be massaged every day. Call me after you take a shower."
Qiao Han nodded: "Thank you."
Luo Xi, who was serious, dedicated and reliable just now, blushed suddenly, waved his hands and said, "It's nothing, it's all what I should, should do."
She was afraid to look at him again.
Qiao Han sighed, he could tell that this girl liked him, but he didn't know why. It's best that this kind of liking fade away quickly, he can't give Luo Xi happiness, she should find someone else.
Although he is attached to Qiao Han's body, he will leave in a short time. At that time, this physical body will naturally die. That child will not give him a chance to stay in Qiao Han's body for the rest of his life. After all, such a Things are too precious.
But how can Luo Xi not like Qiao Han? This is difficult, knowing that Qiao Han made things so hard for her, she was so infatuated with him.
After resting enough, Qiao Han contacted for a while before returning to the bedroom to take a shower.
Originally, he couldn't get into the bathtub, his legs were completely numb, and he needed the help of others to complete many daily chores, but the male ghost was unwilling. He could do it all by himself, never needing anyone else to intervene—the stupidity of asking the driver to carry him into the bathtub was horrible to him.
Shameful and ridiculous.
But because of this, he took twice as much shower time than usual, most of the time was spent on dressing and undressing, and the most troublesome thing was putting on socks. By the time everything was done, Qiao Han was already covered in sweat.
He sat on the bed, dialed the internal number, and soon the butler brought dinner, which was carefully prepared by the nutritionist, and it was very important to cooperate with Qiao Han's rehabilitation process.
Luo Xi went to Qiao Han's bedroom after dinner, ready to give him a massage. In fact, as a rehabilitation practitioner, she doesn't need to do this for the patient, but this is the person she likes in front of her, so she doesn't trust others to do it anyway.
But these two legs had long since lost feeling, no matter how hard she pressed Qiao Han, Qiao Han still couldn't feel anything. No one knows better than him what will happen to these legs in the future. What Luo Xi said is very obedient. The male ghost knows very well that after Luo Xi left, Qiao Han has been working hard to recover, and wants to rely on his legs Legs to find her, but unfortunately he was never able to stand up for the rest of his life.
No matter how good the recovery is, at most he can walk a few steps with a cane. It is already impossible to stand up and walk like ordinary people.
Even so, Qiao Han did not express disbelief in Luo Xi's comforting words. Instead, he nodded with a smile, expressing that he had listened.
While massaging his acupoints, Luo Xi said, "Senior really hasn't changed at all."
"What?" Qiao Han asked. "Senior?"
Only then did she realize that she had slipped her tongue, and said in embarrassment: "No, it's nothing..."
"Do we know each other?" Qiao Han asked, but quickly searched for the memory in his heart, convinced that there was absolutely no Luo Xi in the original owner's memory.
Luo Xi shook her head and said, "I know you, but you don't know me." She raised her head and glanced at Qiao Han, feeling distressed that the man was so skinny, and then said: "I decided to take the exam after I got to know you, senior. University." She was a little embarrassed when she said this. "Well... When I was in junior high school, my senior helped me once."
She looked at him expectantly, and after a few seconds she became dejected: "Sure enough, I don't remember..." But she didn't get discouraged, and quickly cheered herself up: "Senior was so handsome at that time, and everyone who bullied me Beat off."
She is a single-parent family, her father died when she was very young, and her mother worked hard to bring her up alone. At that time, the male classmates in the school liked to bully her who was small and introverted, and laughed at her for not having a father. I was often stopped and bullied after school. In order not to worry her mother, Luo Xi never said anything.
That time she was really bullied, those boys not only laughed at her, but also tried to take off her skirt, Luo Xi cried in fear, but they were laughing. At that time, Qiao Han passed by. At that time, he was already a college student. Standing in front of her, a group of junior high school students were no match for him, and ran away in fright with their tails between their legs.
After Qiao Han drove away her bully, he even patted her head, asked where her home was, sent her home, and told her to smile more.
But he had left the bag at her house with some brand new reference books and his class and name written on it.
Luo Xi glanced at it and never forgot it. Because this man has become a person who loves life and works hard, she immediately wanted to take care of him after hearing about his accident.
"...I see." Qiao Han murmured. The original owner never asked, and Luo Xi didn't mention it either. It turned out that there was still such a bond between the two, no wonder he couldn't find his memory, because the other party didn't connect this matter with Luo Xi at all!
At that time, the little girl he helped was timid and cried a lot, and she would shed tears without saying a word when being bullied, so Qiao Han asked her to be brave and smile more, but now Luo Xi is cheerful and sunny, which is also ironic. The optimistic self in the past has now become gloomy, and the little girl who loves to cry has become fond of laughing and making trouble.
Luo Xi lightly pressed the acupuncture points on his legs to promote the flow of blood vessels and activate the muscles and bones: "I don't know what to call you, so I have to call you senior." That day his smile and the hands rubbing his head were so warm, Luo Xi never forgot. And now, although something happened to the senior, he is still the kind and kind senior.
She showed a shy smile to Qiao Han, and in Qiao Han's mind, she gradually merged with the crying little girl back then.
