Chapter 23: Kites

Duan Meixi kept quiet during the whole meal, Gu Qiumei looked up at Duan Meixi who was drinking soup and said, "It seems that you are very tired, where is your spirit this morning?"

Duan Meixi shook her head innocently and said, "Auntie, I don't understand what you mean. Didn't I do something to make you angry?"

"Now it's just the two of us, do you still want to act?"

Duan Meixi shook her head helplessly and said, "What kind of acting, aunt, I didn't, you must have misunderstood me." ”

"Oh my God, it's really annoying for you to pretend to be innocent like your mother, in fact, I already knew that you came back in every possible way to harm our family, so you don't need to pretend anymore. ”

"Auntie, if I do something wrong, I will definitely change it, please don't say that about my biological mother, is it okay?"

"Why can't I say her? She's just a villain! She deserves no good end!"

"Auntie, do you know a lot about my own mother? I really miss my biological mother, I want to know everything about her, please tell me!Please, please••••••" Duan Meixi's tone was a little excited, with pleading and sadness, she held Gu Qiumei's hand and kept begging her.

Gu Qiumei was a little anxious, "Damn! I don't believe I can't demolish you! Let go of your hand!" Gu Qiumei shook it hard, and Duan Meixi, who had lost her center of gravity all of a sudden, fell on the glass coffee table, and blood was left on her forehead. Gu Qiumei never thought that things would turn out like this, her eyes were full of panic, and her hands began to tremble at a loss. Duan Meixi barely supported her body with the palms of her hands, and said in an almost hoarse voice, "Auntie, I'm not •••••• as you think" Duan Meixi said softly, and a contemptuous smile appeared on her face••••••

Gu Qiumei, who was in a panic, didn't hear what Duan Meixi was saying at all, she just saw Xu Duhang rushing out of the small room next to the living room••••••

Xu Duhang hugged Duan Meixi, whose face was covered with blood and tears, "Bear with me, I know you are in pain, I will send you to the hospital." ”

Xu Duhang walked to the door with Duan Meixi in his arms, and suddenly turned to Gu Qiumei and said, "Mom, did you call me back to show me such a truth?" After speaking, Xu Duhang rushed out with Duan Meixi in his arms••••••

When Duan Meixi woke up, Xu Duhang had already fallen asleep on the side of her bed, probably feeling the movement of getting up, and quickly woke up, "How is it? Is it still painful? You have been sleeping for a day, I am worried about you." ”

Duan Meixi's heart suddenly had an indescribable guilt, but she had to say something. Duan Meixi spit out two words: "Thank you." ”

"Don't be stupid, you don't have to say thank you to me. By the way, it's the little guy who comes to change my shift in a while, and it's time for me to go back to the bar. ”

Duan Meixi didn't have time to say goodbye to Xu Duhang, so he left in a hurry. After about ten minutes, Lan Xue came to visit her with a fruit basket.

Duan Meixi had too many things to say to Lan Xue, but she couldn't say anything when the words came to her lips. Lan Xue picked up a red apple and shook it in front of her eyes, "Senior sister?"

"Huh?" Duan Meixi came back to her senses.

"Eat, I'm done. ”

"Oh, thanks. ”

Duan Meixi took a small bite of the apple, chewed it for a long time, and finally swallowed what she wanted to say again.

"Senior sister, even if you have something you want to say, tell me when you heal from your injuries. I'm going to get a kettle for hot water. ”

"Cher, don't leave yet. Sit down and talk to me. ”

Lan Xue put down the kettle and sat down quietly. Looking at the gauze wrapped around Duan Meixi's forehead, "Aren't you very good at protecting yourself, why did you accidentally let yourself be injured so much?"

Duan Meixi gently held Lan Xue's hand, and a wry smile appeared on her face, "I did it on purpose." That glass coffee table, I hit it on purpose. ”

"No way! You won't do that. Lan Xue didn't believe Duan Meixi's words at all.

"Why can't it be? When you hear about me from Xu Duhang, you won't believe that I'm his aunt's child. Because you know better than anyone that it can't be true. ”

"yes, I don't believe that's true. However, you must have your reasons for doing this, and as long as you don't let yourself get hurt again, I won't ask anything. ”

"My brother is Aunt Xu Duhang's child, I never doubted that you would have guessed this a long time ago. ”

"But I don't understand ••••••"

"I don't understand why it's me again, right? Duan Meixi raised her arm to show Lan Xue the chain on her wrist, "This was originally my brother's biological mother." I took it with me to convince Xu Hai that I was the child he had adopted for his sister so that I could live in his house. Originally, there were some things that my brother wanted to do, but now I will do it for him, from the moment I entered the Xu family••••••"

"Duan Yehan once told me that he had to do something to get retribution••••••"

Duan Meixi closed her eyes and nodded silently, "In the future, I will suffer those retributions." ”

"Senior sister, tell me, what is going on. What is it that makes you all so uncherishing yourself? You weren't like this before, you're not like this! Can't you not hurt yourself?"

"Xue'er, you are a kind girl, if the senior sister does something nasty in the future, don't hate me too much. ”

Lan Xue grabbed Duan Meixi's hand tightly, her eyes were full of expectation, "Tell me, you, will there be a day when you change your mind." ”

Duan Meixi nodded, her eyes were filled with certainty, "Yes." Wait for the day I get the results. ”

"And what is your result?"

"The Xu family was destroyed. ”

"Is this also the result that Duan Yehan wants?"

Duan Meixi turned her head in the direction of the glass window and no longer answered Lan Xue's question.

Lan Xue lowered her head, and her voice became a little timid, even a little humble, "Are you going to ruin Xu Duhang?"

Duan Meixi patted Lan Xue's head lightly, trying to comfort her as much as possible, "Even if this home is destroyed, it won't have any impact on him." Because, I believe that at that time you were already married, had your own home, and lived a happy life. ”

"If you destroy his home, will he still be happy?"

"I'm sorry. I can't care about that much now. ”

"I'm not going to let my senior sister do that. ”

Duan Meixi suddenly felt an inexplicable pain rush into her throat, she looked at Lan Xue's eyes full of heartache, and the determination in her eyes gradually turned into pleading, "You, you are my best friend, just like my own sister•••••• does Xue'er mean to become my enemy? If it is you, I can only do it to make you not hate me so much." ”

"Since we're good friends, then why would you rather make me your enemy than stop•••••• we're best friends••••••"

Duan Meixi turned her head, took a deep breath, and said lightly, "You go back, I want to stay alone for a while." ”

"Senior sister, take a good rest, I'm leaving. Maybe she really should leave, because in addition to leaving, Lan Xue doesn't know what to say or do next. Leaving this ward is really her only option now••••••

When she returned home, Lan Xue was just in a daze, and when she realized that she was hungry and wanted to eat something, she realized that it was already dark.

"Everything has a beginning and an end, and you don't have to worry too much about it. ”

Hearing this familiar voice, Lan Xue came back from her daze, she waved her hand at the black shadow in front of her and said, "Shadow ••••••"

The black shadow nodded lightly and slowly walked to her side, "I haven't listened to my story for a long time." ”

"Yes, thank you for being willing to come and be with me at this time. Mom and Dad are not at home, and I am really a little lonely. ”

"I know all your troubles. But don't hold a grudge against your friend. She doesn't have any ill will, she has always been kind. ”

"Sister, don't worry, she's my best friend, and I won't resent her no matter what she does. Lan Xue looked at the starry sky outside the window and said thoughtfully: "Sometimes I think about it, it's not bad to be like you, you don't have to face anything but know everything." Hey, it's good to be a ghost. ”

"In that case, let's do it together. ”

After Ying's words were finished, Lan Xue suddenly smiled, "Haha, forget it." I'm kidding. ”

"Now that you're smiling, listen to my story happily. ”

"Wait a minute. ”

"What's wrong?"

Lan Xue tried to see the mysterious face under Shadow's cloak, "Shadow, we've known each other for so long. I, can I, see what you look like?"

Listening to Lan Xue's words, Shadow lowered his head, "When the story is almost over, you will know." ”

Lan Xue realized that she seemed to have said the wrong thing, and she immediately apologized like a shadow, "I'm sorry, maybe my request is a bit excessive, I won't mention it again in the future." By the way, last time I talked about the disease of Snow Marks••••••"

"Ever since the snow scar was sick, everyone in the family has been guessing, and people outside are also talking about it. Some say that Miss Qiu made the car hit stupidly, and some say that Miss Qiu hit the evil and went crazy. Anyway, no matter what others say, I'm glad that Snow Marks has become what they are now. Because, then she will be happier. ”

Because of her illness, Qiu Ruoyu helped Xue Zhen take a leave of absence from school, so that she could stay at home every day. Qiu Ruoyu will fly a kite with Xueji whenever she is free, although she has never said a complete word since she got sick, but from the time Xuezhen looked at the kite's childlike smile on her face, Qiu Ruoyu would also tell herself that as long as Xuezhen can keep laughing like this, even if she continues to be so stupid forever, she will not have any complaints.

Qiu Ruoyu held a wooden handle in her hand, gently pulled the thread in her hand, the kite flew higher and higher in the sky•••••• turned sideways, looked at the snow marks, she sat under the tree, quietly looking at the kite in the sky, as if intoxicated••••••

Qiu Ruoyu took a few steps back, leaned over, gently held up the hand of the snow mark, put the wooden handle in her hand on her palm, and let her fingers gently hook the thin kite string, "Snow mark, let's try it." ”

Xue Zhen was stunned for a moment, she really didn't know how to fiddle with the things in her hand, she just looked at Qiu Ruoyu blankly. Qiu Ruoyu also sat down against the tree, carefully pulled over Xueji's body, let her lean on herself, and her two hands warmly covered the back of her hand, driving Xueji's hand to pull the thread. Looking at Xue Zhen's eyes so focused, Qiu Ruoyu couldn't help but remember that before he went to Japan, when he was a child, Xue Zhen's favorite thing was to fly a kite with him. Qiu Ruoyu looked at the kite in the sky and said, "Xueji, do you remember when we were a child, we flew kites together? Actually, before you appeared, my least favorite thing was to fly kites, and I thought it was no fun." When you first showed up at our house, you had tears all over your face, so sad. You said that you lost your father and mother, and there will be no one to fly a kite with you in the future. For you, to be the person who can fly a kite with you, I started to learn how to make a kite fly high and far, and every time I see you looking at the kite and being intoxicated, I feel very happy. Thank you for making it so fun to be with you. Eight years ago today, I went to Japan. Today, I'm going to reveal the secret of eight years ago. For Qiu Ruoyu, Xueji is a person who wants to protect for the rest of his life, and he is the only person I want to marry. It's just a pity that I'll never know the secret of the snow marks. However, it doesn't matter what kind of person I am in your heart••••••" Qiu Ruoyu tightened the snow mark with his arm, "Snow mark, whether you understand it or not, you just need to remember what I am saying now, Qiu Ruoyu is a kite that only belongs to Ye Xuechen, even if it flies high and far, even if it flies out of sight, as long as you move the line in your hand, I will return to you and guard you." Qiu Ruoyu gradually lowered his hand, allowing Xue Zhen to control the kite in his hand by himself. It's just that without Qiu Ruoyu's help, Xue Zhen was at a loss all of a sudden, she reversed the direction, she wrapped all the threads on the wooden handle, and as a result, the kite floated away with the wind, and only one wooden handle remained in her hand. Snow Marks cried all of a sudden, "Come back, come back••••••"

Qiu Ruoyu wiped away the tears of the snow marks, "The snow marks don't cry, the snow marks are good, I'll take you to the street to buy a bigger and more beautiful kite, okay?"

Qiu Ruoyu took Xueji's hand back to the room, and he instructed Ah Lan: "Help the young lady freshen up, I will take her to the street"

Ah Lan was a little surprised and said, "But the current appearance of the young lady ••••••"

"What's wrong with Miss? ”

Ah Lan was originally worried that Xueji's current appearance was not suitable for walking on the street, but since the eldest young master was so resolute and would follow the young lady to protect him, he had nothing to worry about. Thinking of this, Ah Lan nodded and responded, "Yes, I'll take the young lady to prepare." ”
