Jiang Jingbai woke up at five o'clock in the morning. She was woken up by the pain. She felt a dull pain in the back of her head. The pain was so painful that she couldn't help turning over and woke up.
When she opened her eyes, she saw white eyes, the smell of disinfectant under the tip of her nose, and the beeping sound of the instrument next to her. Her eyes regained clarity after being dazed for a few seconds.
This is a hospital, Jiang Jingbai immediately thought of Yuxi after confirming this fact.
Before fainting, Yu Xi had a stunned expression.
After such a long time apart, it was the first time she saw her showing such an expression.
Before Jiang Jingbai could think about it, she caught a glimpse of someone lying on the sofa. Not far away, she could just see part of the side face of the lying person. Under the bright light, she recognized it as Yu Xi.
A few seconds later, she slowly got up and sat up. The excessive blood loss caused her eyes to go dark the moment she got up, and she was a little dizzy. Jiang Jing slowly touched the back of her head with her white hands, and was wrapped in several layers of white gauze. She didn't know what was going on with the gauze.
After sitting quietly for a few minutes, she didn't get out of bed, fearing to disturb Yu Xi's rest, she didn't wear slippers, but walked barefoot on the white tiles without making a sound.
Yuxi didn't wake up.
Jiang Jingbai moved to the tea table next to her and saw that she was breathing steadily. She breathed a sigh of relief and slowly squatted down. Yu Xi was sleeping on her side, with part of her long hair covering her side face. Jiang Jingbai saw her Frowning while sleeping, trying to help her brush her long hair behind her ears, she raised her hands several times and then slowly lowered them, and finally sat here without moving and looked at Yu Xi.
When she opened the door, she didn't expect that there would be such a scene inside, which was completely different from what she had imagined.
In his memory, Yu Xi said that he knew some self-defense skills, and he was clamoring to teach her when he was in school. She was so good-looking that she was easy to meet bad people, so she had to learn it.
Then he took her to start training, often before doing a few movements, Yu Xi started to eat her tofu in the name of guidance. Jiang Jingbai always thought that she was just putting on airs, but she didn't expect that she was real.
very nice.
So good that there was a slight pain in her heart.
The air conditioner was turned on in the ward, and Jiang Jingbai felt chilly after sitting for about half an hour. She resisted the urge to sneeze and got up, covered Yu Xi with a blanket before returning to the hospital bed.
Tossing and turning, but it was difficult to fall asleep again, she quietly watched the moonlight outside through the window, sprinkled on the branches, flickering, light and shadow mottled.
The ward was extraordinarily quiet and reassuring.
Yu Xi was woken up by the alarm clock. When the phone rang for the second time, she sat up, turned off the phone, and threw it on the sofa. When she looked up at Jiang Jingbai's hospital bed, she met the eyes that looked over.
Her eyes were clear, as if she had just woken up, but Yu Xi still asked, "Did it wake you up?"
It was inconvenient for Jiang Jingbai to shake her head, so she answered her: "No."
With a hoarse voice: "I've been awake for a while."
Yu Xi lowered her head when she heard her words: "Why didn't you call me?"
Jiang Jingbai pursed her lips: "I don't want to disturb your rest."
After hearing her words, Yu Xi was silent for a few seconds, got up and folded the thin blanket and put it in the cabinet. She had set the alarm clock at five o'clock, and the corridor outside was still dark. Occasionally, pedestrians passed by the door of the ward with hurried expressions.
After finishing her work, she walked to Jiang Jingbai and said, "I'll fetch water to wash your face."
Before Jiang Jingbai had time to speak to her, she saw Yu Xi had already walked into the bathroom. After a while, she came out with the basin in her hands, and handed herself a wet towel with a calm expression.
"Thank you." Jiang Jingbai was about to take it with both hands, but Yu Xi went straight around her hands and wiped her face with a wet towel, leaving wet marks.
After Yu Xi wiped her face and hands, she carried the basin back to the bathroom.
Jiang Jingbai only heard the sound of splashing water coming from inside, and after a while, Yuxi came out.
She changed into slightly slimmer clothes, her long hair was tied up, and she put on light makeup. When she walked to the hospital bed, her expression was still expressionless. Jiang Jingbai met her eyes and said in a low voice: "Yu Xi."
"are you angry?"
Yu Xi sat beside her hospital bed with a stool, poured a glass of warm water and handed it to her, as if she wanted to have a long talk.
Jiang Jingbai didn't drink it after taking it, but looked down at the warm water in the quilt gently rippling and rippled.
Yu Xi said, "Don't be angry."
"But I'm not grateful either."
"Boss Jiang, there is really no need for you to do this."
Jiang Jingbai held the cup in both hands, touched the wall of the cup with her fingertips, and slightly parted her bloodless thin lips: "I don't want you to thank me."
Yu Xi nodded: "Okay, you don't want me to thank you, you reject the important cooperation."
"You don't want me to thank you for helping me with such a serious injury."
"Jiang Jingbai, tell me, you don't want me to appreciate you, what do you want me to do?"
"With you again?"
Jiang Jingbai raised her head when she heard her rhetorical question, and looked at Yu Xi.
The four eyes met, Yu Xi's eyes were clear, mixed with a slight annoyance that could not be suppressed, Jiang Jingbai was silent for a few seconds, and took a sip of the warm water in the glass.
Yu Xi twitched at her silent attitude: "Jiang Jingbai, we are not seventeen or eighteen years old anymore, we don't need to be so hypocritical, let's open up if we have something to say—"
"If I want to." Jiang Jingbai interrupted her, her hands were holding the cup very hard, her body was tense, she looked at Yu Xi, and said word by word: "If I don't need your gratitude, I want to be with you."
"Do you want to miss it very much?"
Her voice was firm and low, beating on Yu Xi's ear like a drum, Yu Xi laughed after hearing it, wondering if she was angry, she raised her eyes: "Do you want to be with me?"
"Why?"
Jiang Jing pursed her lips straight.
Yu Xi looked serious: "Let me just say it, it's impossible, it's impossible for me to be with you again in my life."
"You should die of this heart."
Jiang Jingbai lowered her head and lowered her eyes, silent.
Yu Xi looked at the net cover on her head, and the long eyelashes trembling when she lowered her eyes, and continued: "Luo Qihao, don't bother Mr. Jiang, I've already dealt with it."
"I haven't notified your family members, but I just called Tao Yitong, and she will be here in a while."
Sitting in front of the hospital bed, Yu Xi said, "Thank you for what happened last night. If it wasn't for you, I would be the one lying on the hospital bed right now, so I owe you what I owe you, and I will remember to pay it back."
"But not in an emotional way."
Jiang Jingbai listened to her finish such a long paragraph, her expression slowly recovered from her nervousness, and her eyes gradually became gentle. She responded: "Okay."
Seeing her like this, Yu Xi sighed: "Jiang Jingbai, let yourself go."
Jiang Jingbai looked at her and nodded seriously: "Okay."
Two good words in succession made Yu Xi unable to utter the rest of the words, his facial features that had lost all color became paler, and his figure was thinner and weaker. Yu Xi was thinking whether what he just said was too harsh when the door of the ward It was rang, followed by Tao Yitong's voice.
"Jingbai!"
Jiang Jingbai glanced at Yu Xi: "Come in."
After Tao Yitong opened the door, she was not surprised to see Yu Xi, but she frowned when she saw Jiang Jing's bald head was bandaged like this: "What's going on?"
"What's wrong with your head? Does it hurt?"
Seeing Tao Yitong's caring look, Yu Xi suddenly felt that he was really mean just now.
After Jiang Jingbai woke up, she didn't ask a word about her body, but she gave her a hard blow. Looking at the paler face, Yu Xi lowered her eyes: "Talk slowly, I'll go first."
Tao Yitong turned her back to her, and just as she was about to speak, she heard Jiang Jingbai say, "Be careful on the road."
Yu Xi stopped her pace when she heard this, and said in silence for a few seconds: "If the play starts early, I will come over."
Jiang Jingbai said the third good word today.
Yu Xi left the ward with her bag in her high heels.
Tao Yitong asked after she left, "What happened between you?"
Jiang Jingbai put the cup in her hand on the tea table: "Nothing happened."
Knowing that she was lying, Tao Yitong could only follow her words: "What happened last night?"
Yu Xi didn't come back when the meeting ended yesterday, they all went upstairs, and later saw some things about Director Zhao in the group, but she drank alcohol, was too tired, fell asleep after washing, and received fish this morning. Xi called to know what happened.
Still such a big deal.
Jiang Jing raised her eyebrows: "It's nothing."
Faced with her resistance, Tao Yitong said seriously: "It's nothing, you got a scoop on your head? It's nothing, you two stick together again? It's nothing, do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"
Jiang Jingbai found it very strange. When Yu Xi was in the ward just now, she didn't feel any headache at all. As soon as she left, she couldn't hold on to the headache and wanted to lie down and rest.
Tao Yitong obviously wanted to ask clearly: "Are you going to tell me? If not, I'll call Mom right now and ask her to come over."
"Yitong." Jiang Jingbai looked at her with a tired expression: "I'm very tired and want to rest."
"Jiang Jingbai!"
But no matter how she called, the person sleeping on the hospital bed never spoke again. Not long after, the door of the ward was knocked, and the nurse came in for a routine examination. Tao Yitong followed the nurse: "How is she? Are you okay?"
The nurse nodded after finishing the examination: "It's nothing serious."
Before she asked the next question, Jiang Jingbai said, "When can I leave the hospital?"
The nurse looked at her case and said, "At least two days of observation are required, and you should also rest after you leave the hospital, so you can't be too tired."
Tao Yitong breathed a sigh of relief when she said she was fine, and after sending the nurse away, she said to Jiang Jingbai: "Don't tell me that I really sent Mom over here."
Jiang Jingbai lowered her eyes: "Something happened last night."
Tao Yitong bit her lip at her explanation that was not an explanation: "Then what's going on with your head?"
Jiang Jingbai lowered her eyes: "It's knocked."
Tao Yitong took a deep breath, every time she talked with Jiang Jingbai, she would be so angry that she would say to herself, "I am not angry." What's going on, Xi?"
Speaking of Yu Xi, Jiang Jingbai raised her eyelids and looked at her. Seeing that Tao Yitong was waiting for a reply, she said as usual: "I told her, I want to be with her again."
Tao Yitong froze for a moment, then looked at Jiang Jingbai in disbelief after regaining consciousness, and said sharply, "Are you crazy!"
Jiang Jingbai nodded almost invisibly.
She is crazy.
But if she wasn't crazy and didn't say those words, Yu Xi would always feel guilty towards her.
She doesn't want her guilt.
