The Life of Mary Sue - Chapter 38
When I woke up, I was in the hospital.
Outside the window was a dark night as deep as ink. There was no one in the ward, but outside the ward, a familiar voice could be heard yelling at someone.
“She is stubborn and you let her be stubborn?”
“If something happens this time, who of you can take this responsibility?!”
The man deliberately lowered his voice, but the stern anger in his voice could not be suppressed at all.
Cheng Xueyi looked in the direction of the door and was slightly lost.
The night in the hospital was extraordinarily quiet, and no one disturbed her, so she kept looking at the door in a trance.
Until the door of the ward was pushed open.
The man pushed the door lightly, as if he was afraid of disturbing her.
He closed the door, and when he turned around, he caught Cheng Xueyi’s clear eyes.
It wasn’t her hallucinations, Xu Qiyan really came.
The tall man was wearing a navy blue sweater, and under the dim light, he looked a little tired.
Seeing her awake, he was stunned for a second.
The two looked at each other like this, but neither spoke a word.
The man took his long legs and walked silently to the **** chair and sat down.
He didn’t seem to be going to ask anything, and he wasn’t going to say anything.
The eerie silence lasted for a while.
Cheng Xueyi was tangled in her heart, she should say something.
Like, why are you here?
But she wasn’t sure if the answer to the question could be tolerated, she vaguely felt that it was an untouchable question.
Cheng Xueyi pursed her dry lips, and finally chose another question that needed to be answered urgently, “Mr. Xu… That, did I fall badly?”
There will be a slight pain when you move, but it doesn’t seem to be unacceptable. She guessed that the injury should not be serious.
Xu Qiyan, who had been silent for a long time, finally raised his eyes and glanced at her after hearing the words. He handed a glass of water over and said blankly, “The doctor said that he will rest for two months.”
“???”
“No way?”
two months? ! How could the crew wait for her for two months, and the day lily will be cold by then!
“Afraid?”
Cheng Xueyi nodded honestly, “Yes.”
“Why are you still trying to be brave?” He pursed his lips, his tone vaguely unpleasant.
…
Cheng Xueyi pulled up the quilt, covering half of her face, revealing only a pair of eyes, “I admit that I was a little anxious this time.”
“But I’m not,” she said aggrievedly after thinking for a while, “do you want to be worthy of my salary…”
“You don’t want your life for that little pay?”
What do you call 38 million?
Okay, not much for you…
She whimpered, “It’s not just about the money!”
He raised his eyebrows slightly, “That’s what?”
“It’s a matter of professionalism!” As if he had found the most suitable reason, Cheng Xueyi felt that her waist was stiff, “I just don’t want to use a stand-in.”
“The premise of not needing a substitute is,” Xu Qiyan looked at her with black eyes, “one’s own abilities pass the test.”
Hearing this, Cheng Xue turned over angrily, “Okay, I don’t want to hear it.”
She admitted that she was really wrong this time, and taking on “The Famous Family” was a lot of pressure for her. She wanted too much to do it well, to make everything perfect, and to make it impossible for everyone to tell her a bad thing, so , she was so eager for quick success.
But even if it is wrong, the starting point is always good.
Cheng Xueyi didn’t want to hear Xu Qiyan miss her.
Xu Qiyan followed her and did not continue to speak.
The night was really quiet and quiet, and I could hear the ticking of the minute and second hands of the clock, and the sound of the man behind him flipping through the paper in his hand.
But Cheng Xueyi’s heart was not so peaceful.
During this period of time, things about Xu Qiyan have been haunting one after another.
He rescued her from Gu Heng’s hands, he gave her a New Year’s gift, and he said he was going to visit her mother.
And now.
This man, who should be a thousand kilometers away, was sitting silently and peacefully beside her at this moment, his handsome face like a knife cut with a rare tiredness.
She couldn’t pretend that nothing had happened.
Cheng Xueyi turned over silently, and gave him a few secret glances from the corner of his eye, as if he was hesitant to say anything.
Xu Qiyan flipped through another page of information, but without looking at her, she only said in a deep voice, “Speak if you have something to say.”
“Oh……”
“Then I asked?”
“ask.”
“Mr. Xu, you…are you, I…” It’s really hard to ask this question.
Cheng Xueyi choked, “Mr. Xu, wait for me to organize the language a little bit.”
“No need.” Xu Qiyan interrupted her in a low voice. He narrowed his beautiful eyebrows and seemed to know what she was going to ask.
“I’m chasing you.”
Be caught off guard.
The man looked at her with deep and serene eyes, and his voice was low, soft and a little hoarse, as if he had been endowed with special magic power by the night. The five words crossed his heart and brought a different kind of emotion.
It was as if something had lightly grabbed his heart, a heart that should have been beating wildly, but at this moment he was careful not to make a big move, and even his breathing was a little suppressed.
“…”
Cheng Xueyi never thought that Xu Qiyan would be so straightforward.
When he said that, she didn’t know how to answer.
He didn’t give her a chance to play Tai Chi and play stupid.
I’m chasing after you, so I said it directly.
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.
I don’t know how long it took before her heart began to thump in her chest with a “dong dong dong”, and each time it became more intense and more powerful.
“I, it’s not…” Her little face was wrinkled together, “I didn’t think about that aspect before.”
It can’t be said that there is nothing at all, she is not a fool after all, she can still perceive the changes in other people’s eyes and attitudes, but she has always thought it is unlikely.
The two of them said something unpleasant, and they have always been incompatible. Just over half a year ago, Xu Qiyan completely despised her, so how could it become… like this?
“It’s okay, from now on, think about it.”
There was a slight smile on the corner of the man’s lips, and his tone of speech was always calm but also very serious.
…
Cheng Xueyi felt hot on her face, she pulled the quilt over her head, and said sullenly, “I’m going to sleep.”
In the next second, the quilt was lifted by Xu Qiyan again, and his eyes were facing each other, and his black eyes were clearly a bit joking, “It’s easy to have trouble breathing when you sleep like this.”
Thanks to you, I can’t breathe very well, I’m almost suffocating!
Cheng Xueyi turned her back again, “Don’t mind me!”
It was clearly angry.
Xu Qiyan left at dawn.
He moved very lightly, but Cheng Xueyi still opened his eyes.
Seeing that she woke up and put on a coat, Xu Qiyan frowned and asked, “Wake you up?”
Cheng Xueyi shook her head, “Are you leaving?”
It was not yet bright outside, and there was only a dim yellow night lamp emitting a faint light in the room.
He bowed his head and fastened his buttons, “The company has something to do today, so I have to fly back.”
Catch the latest flight to come, and take the earliest flight to leave.
I didn’t see it, the president is actually quite a warm man…
Don’t say it, I can’t stand it.
Xu Qiyan buttoned her coat, and approached Cheng Xueyi again. He looked at her for a moment and raised his lips slightly, “Why, you can’t bear to let me go?”
The deep voice contained a bit of cunning.
…
After this is revealed, don’t you want to be embarrassed?
“You, be more reserved.”
Xu Qiyan chuckled, “Sleep, I’ll come back when I’m done.”
Again?
Ah, ah, the president is really not going to be embarrassed!
When Xu Qiyan left, Cheng Xueyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It is impossible to sleep.
She turned over and called Crow Mouth Yu Tongtong.
It was only after six o’clock in the morning, and Yu Tongtong’s tone of answering the phone had a strong sense of getting up.
“I said you were sick, why did you call me so early?”
Cheng Xueyi’s heart was full of galloping horses this night, and for the sake of her depression, she urgently needed an outlet to vent.
She roared back arrogantly: “Yu Tongtong, you bastard, don’t talk nonsense to me in the future!”
“No,” she felt inexplicable, “what am I talking about?”
Speaking of this, Cheng Xueyi’s aura suddenly dropped again, and he was still a little… shy?
She feels like a lunatic now.
“I’ll hang up if you don’t talk anymore!” Yu Tongtong spat, “Crazy in the morning!”
“Hey, don’t hang up.”
Cheng Xueyi paused hypocritically, “I fell off my horse yesterday.”
“Ah? What the hell, did you fall hard?”
“Then Xu Qiyan came.”
Yu Tongtong: “…”
“He said he was after me.”
“???”
After Cheng Xueyi finished her succinct words, Yu Tongtong felt that she had no more ideas, and there was only one sentence left in her mind, “Fuck” that looped endlessly in her mind.
These three sentences are too informative.
It was about to dawn outside, Yu Tongtong turned on the bedside lamp and propped up the pillow, “Wait for me to digest it first.”
In fact, Xu Qiyan’s performance was quite obvious before, but if this kind of thing happened, it still makes people feel very exciting.
Yu Tongtong leaned on the pillow, her drowsiness disappeared completely, “Then how did you answer him?”
Cheng Xueyi recalled, “He said let me think about it, and then I said…”
“I said I was going to bed.”
…
Really satisfied.
“What do you think?” Yu Tongtong was about to faint, “I mean, do you mean that to Mr. Xu?”
“Frankly, I haven’t really thought about that.”
“You know, he used to look down on me very much, but now the style of painting has changed, I’m afraid he is trolling me.”
“Your idea is not valid.” Yu Tongtong said, “Actually, you know very well that he is not. He is the president of a big company, the rich and powerful son, the last time he washed your hands and made soup for you. You, eldest sister, this is more than 1,000 kilometers, and your parents and mother may not have the executive power.”
Cheng Xueyi hummed, Xu Qiyan was just arrogant and unforgiving, but in fact he was very kind to her.
She still owes him a lot of love, too much to repay.
Cheng Xueyi pouted, feeling that the whole person was very tangled, “I just don’t know how I feel about him.”
“Then figure it out slowly. He didn’t ask you to think about it, and he didn’t tell you to get married right away.”
“Fuck away!”
“However, you really have to be more careful.” Yu Tongtong tutted, “It’s not that easy to fall in love with someone like Xu Qiyan.”
