Different from He Yurou's pretentiousness when she just called, Ding Yao was really afraid of the sound of thunder, so scared that when she heard this continuous thunder, the whole person was already paralyzed with fright, and the trembling and pale face all over her body were definitely not pretended. Come to think of it, she was really scared.

"Obedient, stand up first, the tiles on the ground are cold, especially in your special situation now, don't catch a cold. ”

As he spoke, Mu Yuanting put his arm around her shoulders and wanted to lift her up from the ground.

But Ding Yao shook his head again and again, shook off his arms in a panic, and still covered his ears tightly with his hands, and he couldn't let go at all. It seems that he was really frightened by the thunder just now.

Mu Yuanting looked at her like this worriedly, and couldn't help but sigh lightly: her fear was far beyond the timidity that a girl should have, and that kind of fear was not a kind of fear at all. Thinking about it, she was afraid that she had experienced something, so she became what she is now, as if there was a shadow of thunder.

Thinking of this, looking at Ding Yao's appearance again, he knew that it was impossible for her to stand up by herself, so he simply picked up the curled person from the ground, and then strode out of the bathroom and walked towards the upstairs guest room.

The thunder outside was still ringing from time to time, and I couldn't stop thinking about it for a while.

She just stayed here for the night tonight. Thinking about this situation, she would not refuse his kindness again. Kicking open the door of the guest room on the second floor, he strode in, put the man on the bed, and turned to go out.

At this moment, Ding Yao suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed his wrist tightly, and trembled a little between his words, "Where are you going!"

"I'm going to get something and I'll be right back, in a minute. Don't be afraid, I'll be right back, you wait here. ”

Ding Yao refused to let go of his arm, his hands couldn't help but tighten, and he shook his head again and again, "Don't go...... Please, I'm afraid, don't get out of my sight......"

"Good, good. I'm not leaving, I'm just staying here. He turned to call out to Auntie and commanded, "Auntie, bring me my mobile phone and wireless headphones." ”

With that, he simply sat down on the edge of the bed, reached out and took the handbag in her hand, and put it on the bedside table to the side.

It was also because someone was next to him that Ding Yao's mood slowly stabilized little by little, and the thunder outside had just passed for a while. It was precisely because of this that she finally tentatively let go of her locked neck.

But at this moment, another burst of thunder sounded, which frightened Ding Yao's limbs that had just stretched out, and instantly returned to the original curled up posture, just like when he was in the corner of the bathroom just now.

Mu Yuanting approached, stretched out his hand to hold her tightly in his arms, like coaxing a child, reached out to caress her head and patted her back, "Don't be afraid, I'll accompany you by the side, I won't leave." The thunder is about to pass, and it will be fine for a while. Okay, okay, don't be afraid, it's going to be over soon, and it's going to be okay right away. ”

The aunt came in with Mu Yuanting's mobile phone and wireless headphones and handed the things to Mu Yuanting.

Mu Yuanting turned on the music player on his mobile phone, put wireless headphones on Ding Yao's head, and played a soft piano song. He tentatively laid the person down on the bed, then pulled the quilt over her and patted her like a child to sleep, "Okay, it's okay, go to sleep." When you fall asleep, you can't hear thunder. I'm not leaving, I'm staying on the sidelines. ”

Auntie looked at Mu Yuanting's rare and patient appearance, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

She turned and left the room, closing the door.

Under Mu Yuanting's coaxing, coupled with the soft piano music playing in the headphones, gradually, Ding Yao finally fell asleep. After making sure that she was asleep, Mu Yuanting pulled out the injured hand that was held tightly by her, and couldn't help frowning. She had just clenched so hard that the wound on his arm was bleeding again.

didn't care about that, Mu Yuanting took out her mobile phone from Ding Yao's bag, and then used Ding Yao's fingerprint to unlock the screensaver. On the phone, there are dozens of missed calls, text messages and WeChat messages.

Although Mu Yuanting didn't want to peek at people's privacy, he opened them separately for fear of urgency.

The phone calls were made by Qiao Xiang and Ding's mother, the calls were very dense, and the time was almost the same as before and after just now. The content of the text message and WeChat message were all sent by Qiao Xiang, and the content on it was probably to ask how Ding Yao was doing, whether she had closed the window and so on. What's more, Qiao Xiang said that he wanted to go to the apartment rented by Ding Yao to live with Ding Yao.

For some reason, he used Ding Yao's mobile phone to dial Qiao Xiang's phone.

And the person on the other side of the phone answered in seconds, and before Mu Yuanting could speak, he was greeted by a lot of concern, "Yaoyao, how are you? Why is your mobile phone location turned off? You send me the detailed address, and I will stay with you." Don't be afraid, my apartment is not far from the school, and I'll be there in ten minutes. ”

"I'm Mu Yuanting. When it was quiet on the other side, Mu Yuanting spoke lightly.

And the person on the other side of the phone was directly frightened, "Mu ...... Isn't this Yaoyao's mobile phone, how can you ...... Are you together now?Where is Yaoyao?Anyway, go over and see her!"

"She's already asleep listening to music, and I'm not going to wake her up. ”

"That's good, that's good. Hearing Mu Yuanting say that Ding Yao was asleep, Qiao Xiang instantly breathed a sigh of relief, but became nervous again, "Asleep......? It's too fast......"

"Ding Yao came to help me change the dressing, and it was raining heavily outside when I left. She went to the bathroom but didn't come out for a long time, and I kicked in the door to see her curled up in the corner, as if afraid of thunder. I saw that she couldn't go back tonight, so I carried her to the guest room, and she just fell asleep listening to music. ”

Mu Yuanting concisely described what had just happened.

However, this phone call also confirmed that Ding Yao was really afraid of thunder, the kind that was so afraid that the whole person was hovering on the verge of collapse. Everyone has weaknesses and weaknesses, and Ding Yao's weakness is the current thunder.

She always seems to be a very strong girl on weekdays, as if she is invulnerable, and nothing can affect her, but at that moment, she is so fragile that she is so fragile that she can't withstand any wind and waves, and the whole person seems to be about to fall into the endless abyss if anyone attacks casually.

Listening to Mu Yuanting's words, Qiao Xiang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "It's good that she's fine." ”

Mu Yuanting couldn't help but look back at the sleeping person on the bed, "So, has she experienced any unbearable past, so she is so afraid of the sound of thunder." ”

"Hmm. Qiao Xiang couldn't help but sigh and sighed again and again, "Yaoyao is actually quite difficult. ”

She and her mother were abandoned by their biological father, and the night of their biological father's departure was a rainy night with lightning and thunder. At that time, she already had a shadow of thunder. Since then, she has been dependent on her mother, and the two of them have supported each other to finally get to where they are today. Her mother was all she had, and she had no other relatives. ”

Later, her mother had a car accident and almost left her alone. ”

The night when her mother was pushed into the operating room for more than ten hours, there was still lightning, thunder, wind and rain, and she was desperate and helpless in the corridor of the hospital, completely devastated. Since then, the night of thunder has become her weakness, and she can always think of all kinds of unbearable pasts, which seems to be a psychological disorder that takes root in her heart. ”

Hearing Qiao Xiang's words, Mu Yuanting couldn't help but feel distressed in his heart.

In the final analysis, Ding Yao is just getting along with people on weekdays, in order not to get hurt, he instinctively puts on a layer of sharp thorns, and uses vigilance against everyone as his best protection.

Mu Yuanting had a lot of prejudice against Ding Yao before, but until this moment, he only felt that this girl was so strong that it was uncomfortable.

She should be the one who is loved and cared for, but bad luck has turned her into a strong woman who only relies on herself, does not rely on others, does not need the backstage, but is herself step by step, kneeling and continuing to move forward.

"Alright, I got it. Mu Yuanting said lightly, "She will stay in my guest room tonight, I won't wake her up." ”

As she spoke, she rang Ding Yao's missed call just now, "By the way, her mother also called her just now, so she should be too worried." When you hang up later, call her mother back, and don't worry the old man. ”

"This ...... Is that good? Won't it be too much trouble for you?"

Qiao Xiang actually wanted to take Ding Yao away.

After all, the last time they were alone, something happened that made Ding Yao almost become a shadow. And this time, they are in the Mu family again, on Mu Yuanting's territory, will there really be any episodes again?

Mu Yuanting was a little impatient, and he didn't wait for her to say anything more, "That's it." ”

After saying that, he hung up the phone directly and threw the phone on the desktop next to him.

stepped forward and came to the bed again, he turned on the lamp on the bedside table, then tucked the quilt for Ding Yao, and turned towards the door.

Auntie was waiting outside, "Young Master, do you need me to find a pair of pajamas for Miss Ding to change into?"

"Don't move, don't move her, just let her fall asleep like this. Mu Yuanting shook his head lightly, "If she wakes up, she should be scared again." ”
