Second Marriage with the Alliance Marshal

Chapter 67: Insomnia

Views:

On the night of receiving the confession, Xu Xinghe suffered from insomnia.

Although he put the issue aside for the time being with the shameful but useful tortoise mentality of avoiding it, he couldn't pretend that nothing happened.

This confession is real.

His heart was still pounding.

It's like throwing a stone into the water, causing a pool of ripples, which can't be calm for a long time.

Before going to bed, he rejected Ling Changfeng's proposal to stay and continue telling bedtime stories, and sent off the guests tactfully: "Well... it's getting late, I'm going to rest, you should go back and rest early."

Ling Changfeng looked at him, his voice was light and gentle: "Don't you need me to stay with you?"

After a pause, he added: "Lu Sen told me that you were looking for me after you woke up."

Xu Xinghe: "..."

Hei Youyou's eyeballs turned back and forth, and finally landed on the orchid by the bed.

Xu Xinghe stammered: "No, no need. I'm fine. You're tired after a busy day..."

After finishing speaking, she simply slipped into the bed, closed her eyes and said, "Good night."

In the dark night, Xu Xinghe seemed to hear a chuckle.

The light in the ward dimmed, leaving only a small orange light in front of the bed.

Ling Changfeng leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Good night."

Xu Xinghe could feel the other party's scorching breath on his sensitive ears and neck, blowing a few strands of hair, leaving a tingling itchiness.

The voice was so close to him, as if he was having a chat with each other.

Xu Xinghe's long eyelashes trembled slightly, but he did not open his eyes.

Will play dead to the end.

It wasn't until the sound of footsteps disappeared, the door opened and closed, and there was no sound in the room, that Xu Xinghe slowly opened his eyes in the dark night.

He stretched out his hand from under the quilt and touched his ear...

The base of the ear is slightly hot.

Because he was afraid of disturbing the guards at the door and further attracting the owner of the guards, Xu Xinghe did not toss and turn as he used to when he was insomnia, but turned over gently, facing out the window, silently looking at the moon and the moon in the night sky. Star.

The stars are twinkling, and the crescent moon is like a hook.

The silver glow sprinkled on the earth, and the breeze blew through the flower branches.

It's a beautiful night.

Xu Xinghe looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window and had no dreams all night.

Strange to say, when he just woke up, he wanted to find someone to accompany him, because when he closed his eyes, the car where he was kidnapped, the cold eyes of the man with the scar, and the sharp knife on his neck would appear in his mind.

But now he closes his eyes...

The image of Ling Changfeng saying "I like you" is all over his mind.

Xu Xinghe drifted away all night between half-dream and half-awake, and suddenly realized that Ling Changfeng's presence, lethality, and deterrent power had already instantly killed the kidnappers in all directions.

Just a day or two ago, he still felt that such a thing as being kidnapped must be considered a major event in his life, at least it was one of the most unfortunate encounters in his life.

Now I feel that it is nothing more than a mere kidnapping, compared with Ling Changfeng's confession, it is nothing to mention.

The influence of the latter on him was lasting and strong.

The two-color different pupils, one gold and one blue, reveal the luster of natural amber and sapphire, like the ingenious artwork of the Creator.

In the dead of night, Xu Xinghe recalled the feeling of being watched by that gaze, and his heartbeat still accelerated for no reason.

In the afternoon of the next day, Dr. Lu Sen, who came to make rounds as usual, looked at Xu Xinghe's dark circles, and paused slightly with his writing hand: "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Xu Xinghe nodded numbly, and almost blurted out to ask the doctor to prescribe him two sleeping pills.

But the words slipped down his throat, and he stopped abruptly: "I'm fine, just catch up on sleep today."

"Did you have a nightmare last night?" Dr. Lusen asked patiently.

Xu Xinghe yawned and shook his head, "I didn't have any dreams, I just couldn't sleep."

Dr. Lu Sen glanced at him, put down the electronic pen and suggested, "If you can't sleep alone at this stage, you can find someone to accompany you."

He knew that the psychological shadow brought to the victim by a kidnapping cannot be eliminated in a few days. Xu Xinghe may have nightmares at night, and then wake up again and again midway.

At times like this, it's best to have someone by your side.

Thinking of this, Dr. Lu Sen couldn't help complaining why Ling Changfeng didn't come to accompany the bed last night, and also lost such a justifiable opportunity to enhance their relationship in vain.

Unexpectedly, when Xu Xinghe heard the words, he just looked up at the ceiling, and said without love: "Please forgive me, I just want to be alone now..."

Dr. Lu Sen gave a "tsk", and he might have misunderstood the meaning: "If you are embarrassed to say this, I can help you to say it..."

Before the words finished, Xu Xinghe hurriedly interrupted him.

"No! Absolutely not!" Xu Xinghe suddenly reacted, like a fish leaping from the chopping board, he straightened up from the bed with a jerk, startling Lu Sen.

What happened to these two people? in argument

It's not like that either.

When Ling Changfeng left this morning, he looked in a good mood, which was in stark contrast to Xu Xinghe at the moment.

Before he could ask any more questions, there was a sudden noise at the door.

The guards on both sides saluted: "Major General Qin."

Qin Yuan's bohemian voice came from the corridor: "Put it all down, didn't you see that I'm not wearing a military uniform?"

Xu Xinghe heard the reputation and looked around, only to see Major General Qin in a windbreaker appearing at the door of the ward, holding a big fruit basket in his hand, and came forward to greet him with a smile: "Long time no see, Xinghe. I've been crazy busy recently, this time I finally got time to see you after a while. How do you feel? Are you feeling better?"

As soon as Adjutant Qin appeared, the lifeless ward suddenly became alive.

Xu Xinghe blinked, and immediately laughed too: "Long time no see, why are you here?"

Qin Yuan raised the fruit basket in his hand: "I'm here to visit the sick. I'll tell you some bad news by the way. Changfeng has to work overtime tonight and have a meeting, and he may come back very late."

Xu Xinghe: "..." That's really great.

He sincerely suggested: "He has such a hard meeting, so don't run around, and I don't mind staying there overnight."

"It's not what it used to be. He will definitely come back to see you no matter how late he is busy recently." Qin Yuan looked at Xu Xinghe and smiled pointedly, "However, I will convey to him your feelings for him." caring and loving."

Xu Xinghe: "?"

WTF?

Qin Yuan came over and put the fruit basket on the bedside table, still muttering: "What do you want to eat? I'll peel it for you. Oh, by the way, I also ordered a bouquet of carnations—flowers and fruit baskets are not Is it a standard configuration for visiting patients? But when our Boss Ling saw me ordering flowers for you, his eyes stared at me for a whole morning. So I finally put the bouquet of flowers in the office. "
