Rebirth: Different Way - Chapter 30
In an inconspicuous clinic beside the road, Shen Xi sat quietly, seemingly playing with her mobile phone, but her eyes always fell on Li Mingxuan who was being examined by the doctor in front of her.
Shen Xi held the phone unconsciously, and the expression on his face didn’t seem to change, but if you look closely, you will find that his eyes looking at Li Mingxuan are complicated and indescribable.
His mind was rolling over and over. Shen Xi intuitively felt a surge of irritability in his heart, he couldn’t understand why Li Mingxuan rushed up at that moment.
Shen Xi tried her best to convince herself that Li Mingxuan’s behavior might be calculated, or he wanted to win his favor, so as to help Shen Ji test himself? or it could be…
Shen Xi couldn’t think about it anymore, he squeezed the phone hard, and Li Mingxuan’s reluctant expression surfaced in his mind again. Shen Xi sighed irritably, although he didn’t want to admit it, but with his past fighting experience, Li Mingxuan’s previous behavior could only be out of instinct rather than calculation. But because of this, the irritable feeling in Shen Xi’s heart was even worse.
The clinic is very quiet, only the slight sound of the doctor’s examination can be heard. I don’t know if Shen Xi’s emotions were too exposed, Li Mingxuan suddenly turned around and looked concerned, “What’s wrong with Xiao Xi? Are you uncomfortable?”
Li Mingxuan’s expression is sincere, the worry in his eyes cannot be mistaken, Shen Xi lowered his eyes and shook his head slightly.
The doctor quickly finished the examination. Li Mingxuan’s injury was not serious, but he was hit hard by a blunt weapon, and his muscles will be a little sore these days. Compared with the injury on Li Mingxuan’s back, the colorfulness on Shen Xi’s face and body is really nothing. The doctor didn’t prescribe medicine, but only gave the two a few bottles of medicinal oil, and told them to use medicinal oil to rub away the bruises on their bodies, especially Li Mingxuan. After a few days, wait for the bruise to dissipate and it should be fine.
Li Mingxuan politely took the medicated oil from the doctor, stretched out his hand and lifted the coat he took off, but put it on Shen Xi instead of wearing it. Shen Xi’s body stiffened for a moment, and then slowly relaxed again.
Standing at the door of the clinic, Shen Xi looked at Li Mingxuan, who was wearing thin clothes, and the irritable feeling in her heart surfaced again.
Noticing Shen Xi’s sight, Li Mingxuan turned around and smiled at him, Shen Xi tilted her head unconsciously.
Hang up the phone, Li Mingxuan walked towards Shen Xi, “I have called my friend, he will come and drive the car away tomorrow.”
Shen Xi nodded, “Where are you going, I’ll take you.”
Although Li Mingxuan was injured on his back, his shoulders were also affected and he was unable to drive. Shen Xi noticed this before and stopped Li Mingxuan from going to drive. The two only drove one car over, and the other was left in place.
After listening to Shen Xi’s question, Li Mingxuan thought about it, “Let’s go to the hotel.”
The answer made Shen Xi frown, and said, “The hotel is inconvenient, go to my place.”
This is an era without privacy, Li Mingxuan is staying in a hotel today, and the reporters will not know what to report tomorrow. Before, in order to avoid being photographed by reporters, the two did not even go to the hospital, but randomly found a roadside clinic. Shen Xi didn’t want to share the limelight with another scandal at such a critical moment when Yun Rou was cancer-causing. After all, “cousins don’t fight late at night” is also very interesting.
Shen Xi’s proposal made Li Mingxuan struggle. Emotionally, he wanted to agree immediately, but reason was desperately trying to stop him.
He is not an ignorant boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, nor is he a young man who has just begun to fall in love. No one knows better than him what it means to fall in love with Shen Xi.
Let’s not say whether Shen Xi will like a man, just the blood bond between Shen Xi and him is an obstacle that he will never be able to overcome. How many people can accept this kind of incestuous and incestuous feelings? Li Mingxuan thought bitterly. He couldn’t imagine how Shen Xi would react after discovering his feelings? He would rather Shen Xi treat him as an unfamiliar cousin forever than see Shen Xi looking at him with disgust one day.
Li Mingxuan smiled bitterly, if he and Shen Xi were just a simple blood relationship, it would be fine, but behind Shen Xi there are too complicated entanglements of interests, too many uncontrollable things, he Can’t imagine the family’s attitude towards this.
Intellectually, he should stay away from Shen Xi from now on, but emotionally he wants to get close uncontrollably, Li Mingxuan is entangled in the same place, struggling hard.
“Get in the car, why didn’t my cousin leave?” Shen Xi walked to the car and found that Li Mingxuan was still standing there, and greeted him immediately.
Li Mingxuan subconsciously followed Shen Xi’s words and took a few steps before realizing that his body was out of control again, rubbed his forehead in frustration, Li Mingxuan got into the car under Shen Xi’s urging eyes .
Shen Xi’s car drove very smoothly, her expression was serious and focused, and she didn’t have the crazy energy that Li Mingxuan had heard of. The lights on the side of the road were on and off, and Shen Xi’s expression softened. Li Mingxuan sat there quietly, feeling the calm atmosphere in the car, and sincerely hoped that this road would never end.
Half an hour later, the two stood at the door of Shen Xi’s apartment.
This apartment doesn’t look big, it’s just a simple one-bedroom and one-bedroom, but the decoration is quite good. Shen Xi didn’t have many things, and the whole apartment looked a little empty. Li Mingxuan glanced at it quickly, just like the hotel, Shen Xi’s things were neatly arranged.
“Cousin, do you want to take a bath first?” Shen Xi was thinking about applying the medicine and did not delay.
Li Mingxuan shook his head, “You go first.”
Shen Xi looked down at her clothes and did not reject Li Mingxuan’s kindness.
Li Mingxuan watched Shen Xi walk into the bathroom, his eyes darkened. The conversation just now took place between the two of them not long ago, but at that time Shen Xi was only a cousin in his eyes, and he was relieved to hear the sound of water in the bathroom. But this time, Li Mingxuan smiled bitterly and looked at Xiao Mingxuan, who was already excited, and sighed deeply.
The sound of water sounded, Xiao Mingxuan became more and more excited, no matter how many times Li Mingxuan recited silently, there was no sign of softening. Li Mingxuan had no choice but to find the kitchen and poured a large glass of ice water in one breath, and Xiao Mingxuan had no choice but to soften.
Just the thought of giving Shen Xi medicine later, Li Mingxuan couldn’t help but help his forehead, just thinking about the scene, Xiao Mingxuan, who had just softened, started to move again.
Li Mingxuan had to think of something else to divert his attention.
Recalling the relevant reports about Yunrou’s cancer-causing door in his mind, Li Mingxuan tried to put himself in the position of the Shen family to look at this issue. If he were his uncle, how would he handle this? If he was the director of the Shen family, how would he view this matter?
Although the Shen family and the Li family have many interests, they are not without competition in some fields, but the two sides are more used to cooperation. In this case, Li Mingxuan would care about the progress of the Yun Rou incident, but would not ask Shen Ji how to deal with it, just as Shen Ji would not take the initiative to inquire about the Li family’s business.
Li Mingxuan was so absorbed in his thoughts that Shen Xi didn’t notice when he came out, until Shen Xi stood in front of him, “Cousin?”
Li Mingxuan suddenly returned to his senses, and his eyes flashed with surprise.
Shen Xi had just taken a shower at this time, her fair complexion turned pink due to the steaming heat, maybe she returned to a place she was familiar with, Shen Xi’s eyes softened a lot, under the effect of water vapor Wet, her hair fell softly down the sides of her cheeks, looking gentle and harmless.
Shen Xi glanced at Li Mingxuan suspiciously, and indicated the direction of the bathroom, Li Mingxuan nodded but did not act.
It wasn’t until Shen Xi’s figure disappeared in the kitchen that Li Mingxuan stood up embarrassedly, and at that moment, Xiao Mingxuan once again raised his head and saluted Shen Xi. Li Mingxuan smiled wryly, and while Shen Xi didn’t come out, he quickly flashed into the bathroom.
The medicinal wine on the table has been opened, Shen Xi sat cross-legged on the sofa, watching TV and didn’t know what to laugh.
Li Mingxuan couldn’t help laughing when he saw the smile on Shen Xi’s face.
Noticing Li Mingxuan coming out, Shen Xi took off her coat very naturally. If Li Mingxuan had any thoughts when Shen Xi took off his coat, then after seeing the bruises on Shen Xi’s body, there was no other thought in his mind except distressed.
Sitting opposite Shen Xi, Li Mingxuan carefully poured the medicated oil into his hands, but he couldn’t put his hands on Shen Xi’s body. I also know how painful it will be.
Shen Xi wondered, “What’s wrong?”
“It will hurt! If you can’t help it, call out.” Li Mingxuan said in a low voice.
Shen Xi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly did not know how to answer this sentence. It has been a long time since no one has said this sentence to him in such a tone. Even though he and Fang Luowei were hacked several times in prison, the two just gritted their teeth and encouraged each other to persevere. It seemed that they had forgotten that they had the right to cry out for pain.
Li Mingxuan didn’t even think about it, he stretched out his hand and took Shen Xi into his arms, and the other hand had been gently placed on Shen Xi’s back and patted, just like what Shen Xi did when he was sick before.
Shen Xi’s body stiffly maintained the movement of being held in his arms by Li Mingxuan, he felt that he should push him away, but Li Mingxuan’s embrace was too warm, this warmth is Shen Xi Xi was greedy in his heart, and he was a little reluctant.
Shen Xi can’t remember how many years no one has hugged her like this. He has been alone since his grandfather died. Thinking of my grandfather Shen Xi, I couldn’t help but think of the last time I had a fever, and it was this warm embrace in my sleep.
Shen Xi’s body gradually softened, Li Mingxuan tightened his arms, and the skins of the two were pressed together, warm.
Shen Xi rubbed her body unconsciously, imagining Li Mingxuan in front of her as her grandfather. Shen Xi said to herself silently, “Look, grandpa still holds you nervously in his arms when you are hurt occasionally, just like when he was a child, you are so happy!
