Chapter 56: The Little Nanny
"Hey—is it Miss Xu?" The thick male voice on the other end of the phone came into her ears, and she only felt that she had heard this voice somewhere, but she couldn't remember it at this time.
"Yes, I am. She was forced to agree, "Is there anything wrong?"
Listening to his tone, it doesn't look like someone who made the wrong call, but ...... Intentionally found.
The other end of the line seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Hello. I'm Xi Shao's bodyguard, Ah Hong. He was afraid that the promise's brain would not be able to turn around, so he specially did not fill a sentence, "It's the driver who picked you up to the villa last time." ”
After such a deliberate reminder from him, he couldn't remember the promise if he wanted to.
"Oh, why did Xi Shao's bodyguard come to me as an ordinary person?" I don't know why, when she met someone related to Xi Muchen, there was always a trace of habit in her words, tickling people's hearts, making people feel very uncomfortable and mean.
As soon as he heard such a direct question as promise, Ah Hong on the other end of the phone was afraid that he didn't expect it. After all, shouldn't the focus of ordinary women be on Xi Shao?
Ah Hong hesitated for a moment, as if organizing his words.
"Uh...... That one...... That is true...... Xi Shao was seriously injured, and he hoped that you would invite him over...... "I don't know what's wrong, when Ah Hong faced the promise, a feeling called heart weakness inexplicably rose in his heart.
The promise on the other end of the phone heard such a strange reason for being indecent, but it confirmed the uneasiness in her heart, and her face gradually became cloudy, and she sneered unconsciously.
"Ah Hong—you say—why should I—"
Xu Promise just wanted to reject him, but who knew that what he said later made Xu Promise creepy, and the anger in her chest was shouting, even her hand holding the phone couldn't help but tremble, and even the nameless anger forced her to drop the phone in her hand.
I could only hear Ah Hong speak in a mocking tone very similar to Xi Muchen.
"Dream, sister. His emotions were unknown, and just two words forced Xu Promise to skip a beat in an instant.
Hearing this, Xu Yu squinted his eyes unconsciously, his complexion changed, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes. After a pause for a few seconds, even the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and her mind was as ingenious as hers, couldn't she hear the threat in Ah Hong's mouth? I saw an incomprehensible smile on the corner of her mouth, gritting her teeth and slowly speaking.
"Okay, I promise him. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a low-key luxury car not far from her honking. The door opened, and the man who got down nodded respectfully in the direction of the promise, and then stretched out his hand, signaling the promise to get into the car.
She couldn't help but scold, her eyes glaring at his smug look similar to Xi Muchen, but she couldn't help him!
Promise her dark eyes flashed, then slowly put away her phone and got into the luxury car specially prepared for her. The moment the door closed, her scarlet eyes could be seen.
The car drove out steadily, and promised to hold her arm tightly against the black background. I saw that all the cars were black. Black body, black seats, black suit...... Even the windows of the cars that people look at from the outside are so dark and shiny in the sunlight.
Such an environment made Promise feel hatred in his heart.
"Am I so unsightly?" she slowly closed her eyes, her face so calm that she frowned.
Ah Hong caught a glimpse of the expressionless promise in the rearview mirror, and although he maintained a cold bodyguard posture on his face, his heart was stirred up by her reluctant appearance.
Even the financial giants want to give three points, Xi Muchen is now disgusted by an ordinary woman he named to see......
The atmosphere inside the car made Ah Hong so embarrassed that he wanted to abandon the car and run away.
Finally reaching his destination, Ah Hong couldn't help but wipe his face, after all, the sweat almost made him unable to open his eyes. When he was on the road, he sat in the car in a regular manner, not even daring to move, and he didn't dare to make a sound. Because of holding a position for a long time, his bones are about to die of discomfort.
But his mission isn't over yet.
"Miss Xu, please get off the bus. He gentlemanly opened the door for the promise, "Please come with me." ”
Looking at this glorious building, Xu Promise doesn't look like a hospital at all. She glanced at Ah Hong with some confusion, seeing his respectful appearance, and suddenly she felt a tingling in her nerves, and then she remembered that the rich man was afraid that he would not be able to recuperate in a noisy place like the hospital, and the most likely thing was to ask a family doctor to see a doctor in his own home.
Thinking of this, Xu Promise snorted lightly. It seems that Xi Muchen is still living a very nourishing life...... It's just that she can't help but think of her grandmother who is still lying on the hospital bed. Such unfair treatment, her eyes sank.
……
finally followed Ah Hong around a few times before arriving at Xi Muchen's bedroom.
Ah Hong bowed down slightly and knocked lightly on the door. After a long time, there was no sound in the quiet room. This made it difficult for Ah Hong, who was a little overwhelmed to keep the same position.
In a matter of seconds, the door opened.
A man who looked like a doctor came out of it. He gently removed the medical mask, looked at the two people standing outside the door, and frowned slightly.
"Ah Hong, who is she?"
Ah Hong immediately respectfully introduced the promise to the man.
"It was the young master who invited Miss Xu by name. ”
At this time, the man took a good look at the promise.
"Have you checked it?"
The man pointed at her with his slender fingers, which made Promise feel disrespectful to her. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and she made a big cross in her heart to this man.
Ah Hong gave her a troubled look and truthfully reported that he hadn't.
The man took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket, put them on, and searched the promise on the spot, without asking for the promise's permission in advance...... After a bit of rubbing like this, Xu Yu was qualified to enter the bedroom.
She angrily pushed open the door and stomped the carpet, as if struggling to show her anger. When she wanted to point at Xi Muchen's nose and scold, she saw him lying on the bed with fluids. The thousand words in her belly were dissipated by his pale countenance.
I saw that Xi Muchen's originally high-spirited face was now lifeless, his eyes were tightly closed, and his lips were white and chapped. Look at the bandage on his head, round and round. His appearance at this time is particularly pitiful. For some reason, when Promise saw his powerless appearance, her heart softened.
It seemed that because of the deliberate sound of the promise, Xi Muchen slowly opened his eyes. The originally cold and deep eyes may have gradually softened a little because of the injury. He looked at the ceiling, and without looking, he knew that the promise had come. Even he didn't know when he would have such abilities.
Xu Promise saw that the main owner woke up, so he forced himself to take back the unbearable on his face, and forced himself to pretend to be cold.
"Yo--isn't this Master Xi-" The cold front in her eyes was about to frostbite, "Why did you end up looking so embarrassed now-sure enough, people are watching the sky!"
As soon as she remembered what he had done before, she couldn't help but be furious, and she didn't care to vent all her displeasure on it.
Xi Muchen was woken up by the promise, but he didn't expect that they would be competing when they first met.
"Miss Xu, or did I rush over immediately after giving the order?" he couldn't help but salute back.
He choked on the promise and couldn't say a word. She tilted her head to the side, her face darkening. Until she adjusted her state, she could only smile reluctantly.
In Xi Muchen's eyes, this smile is more ugly than crying. Seeing her deflated appearance, for some reason, he felt inexplicably funny. But the next sentence of the promise made him unable to laugh for a moment.
"It's not that Xi Shao has a big face. However, she changed her words, "Since you ...... The famous Xi Shao entrusted me to take care of the ...... Isn't it...... How many times higher is this pay than ordinary people?" she spat out a few words meanly. Cover her up with a snobbish mask.
She would rather lose 8,000 herself than kill 1,000.
As soon as he heard this, Xi Muchen's face fell completely. His already pale face can now be described as pale. Seeing this, he smiled meaningfully.
Xi Muchen struggled to sit up, and his hard support made people have to soften. But the promise didn't move, she pressed the wavering in her heart, but leaned forward, and she was stable.
Finally, he sat up. It's just a few more drops of sweat on his forehead. He looked at the promise quietly and smiled contemptuously.
Suddenly, he raised his hand, and promised to be taken aback by the sudden movement, and quickly took a step back.
"Promise. Come here—" He snapped his finger at her.
Xu Promise glanced at him vigilantly, and the smile on his face suddenly subsided. At this time, her eyes were wet, like a frightened fawn.
"Come here—" Xi Muchen was obviously a little impatient, and repeated what he said again, but now his tone changed to a forced order.
Xu Yu remained motionless in place until she met Xi Muchen's gaze inadvertently, bewitched by his strange eyes, her brain suddenly did not obey, and her legs moved involuntarily.
Xi Muchen saw that Xu Xu was getting closer, and he smiled triumphantly. One leaned sideways, took his wallet from a drawer on the side, and slowly pulled out a stack of banknotes from inside.
Then, his face changed, and he threw the stack of banknotes Promise's face. Suddenly, the banknotes fluttered, and scattered along her body to the ground, regardless of the shock of the promise. Although she was in pain, she didn't have time to exclaim.
"Miss Xu—this is a greeting gift, you're welcome—" he sneered viciously at the promise who had not been able to recover for a long time.
A woman who treats money as her life!
Damn it!
Xu Promise stared at the banknotes all over the floor, and the slight pain on her face always reminded her that this was not an absurd dream. She raised her eyebrows slightly and met Xi Muchen's disgusted gaze. For some reason, she seemed to see a trace of fleeting regret in his eyes, and she couldn't help but be shocked.
She pursed her lips and hung her neck silently.
The whole noisy world was so quiet that only the sound of the two of them breathing each other was left.
Xi Muchen slowly suppressed the anger that was constantly rushing up in his heart, and his chest that was breathing heavily gradually calmed down. He easily adjusted his mood, and returned to his usual indifferent face, as if it were a fish in water for him to do such a thing, if he ignored the faintly trembling hands that he had hidden under the covers.
Then, he pulled out his big hand, pulled out a golden card from his wallet, and handed it to Promise. Hanging his head and saying a word, he saw his actions, and his eyes were full of incomprehension. Looking at his hot and cold face, she noticed that he was becoming more and more unpredictable.
"Miss Xu, take it. This is your reward for taking care of me until I am healed. "I'm afraid it's sky-high for you—I'm going to ask you for more advice in the future—" The words were full of cynicism. Then he shook his hand, as if to promise to reach out and take its hot gold card.
Xu Promise looked at his indescribable strange emotions, and he didn't know whether to accept it or not. After hesitating for half a minute, she still hesitantly stretched out her hand, wanting to take the card.
"Good. She magically agreed to him.
Unexpectedly, just when her hand was about to reach the card, Xi Muchen suddenly shook her hand and threw the card on the ground. "Snap", it sounds particularly good.
"Oops. I'm sorry, my hands are shaking—" He playfully hooked the corners of his mouth at Promise, slowly withdrawing his hand.
Looking at his appearance, Xu Promise naturally easily understood his purpose in wanting to humiliate her. She nodded slightly, the same thing, evoked Xi Muchen's mocking smile, and then slowly leaned down. put the card he deliberately threw on the ground into her bag, and picked up the banknotes on the ground one by one, neatly stacked them, and put them away as well.
In the meantime, she longed to burrow into the ground or die. But she can't, every time she picks up a bill, she can feel the endless shame in her heart. She was holding on to herself, trying not to let her hands shake too much. always reminded himself that he must not let Xi Muchen be satisfied.
And Xi Muchen, who was lying on the bed, saw that she actually picked up the banknotes he scattered on the ground on the ground, and his impression of the promise was even worse, and he thought that she was a snobbish woman. He slowly closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to look at this humiliating sight again.
Finally, there were no more foreign objects on the ground.
Promise climbed the edge of the bed and stood up in one breath. As a result, I squatted on the ground for too long, and suddenly my eyes went dark. She quickly shook her head to force herself to calm down.
Xi Muchen was very alert, as if he felt something, and opened his eyes suddenly.
"Promise. Go and pour me a glass of water—" His tone changed completely, like that of a master summoning a minion.
Hearing this, Xu Yu unconsciously clenched his fists, looking at his comfortable expression, he couldn't do anything after all.
"It's easy to switch roles—" Promise muttered in an indignant voice. But in the end, it is soft to eat people's mouths and soft to take people's hands. She patted her bag, and her heart finally became steady, and her grandmother's medical expenses had been settled!
Xu Yu didn't act immediately, she just calmly observed the layout of the room, and slowly familiarized herself with it first, so as not to panic and make a joke to Xi Muchen in a hurry.
After a while, she learned a little about this place, and then hung her bag on the coat rack, and then set out to pour water for Xi Muchen. What is rare is that Xi Muchen, who is picky and difficult to serve, did not open his mouth to make things difficult for her.
"Grunt", it was the sound of a promise to pour water into the glass, and the water hit the glass, splashing bunches of beautiful little splashes and tumbling inside. When she repeatedly confirmed that the water temperature was just right, she was willing to serve it to Xi Muchen, who was humming on the bed.
"Hey—Xi Muchen—get up—drink water—" she said stiffly. At this moment, how strange does such a scene look...... She can't even take care of herself, and now she has begun to take care of others......
Without thinking about it, the squeamish Xi Muchen turned over and refused her water sullenly, on the grounds that she was moving too slowly, and he was not thirsty now!
The promise is not standing or sitting now, which is really embarrassing. She had the right temperature of water in her hand, but no one drank it, what a shame this water!
"If you don't drink—I happen to be thirsty—then I'll drink?" she said tentatively.
After a while, there was no one to respond to her. She thought that Xi Muchen on the bed was asleep, so she sat on the chair next to her, planning to enjoy the fruits of her labor.
didn't think about it, when her butt just touched the seat, Xi Muchen made a sound.
"Hey me—"
It's also because he is Xi Muchen, when he said this, his face was not red and his heart was not beating.
Promise reconfirmed what he had just said, somewhat incredulously, and it turned out that she was not hallucinating, which frightened her into falling from her chair.
There is no other way, the master has spoken, and she, who is a slave, has to do it!
So, she handed the water to Xi Muchen in a hurry. Without thinking about it, he grabbed her arm, and his eyes, which were tightly closed, opened instantly, and his eyes as vast as stars seemed to suck the promise in. The two looked at each other speechlessly. In an instant, the promise's pretty face blushed a little unnaturally.
She was so frightened by him that she quickly turned her head away and quickly passed the water to his lips. Originally, she thought she was going to coax him for a few sentences, but she didn't expect Xi Muchen to open his mouth obediently......
……
Since then, Xi Muchen has changed his way to ask Xu to do it, anyway, he keeps her by his side all the time, and has an intimate interaction from time to time.
Until one day, the promised mobile phone suddenly vibrate.
She was making his bed for him, and she quickly took her mobile phone out of her pocket and found that it was a strange caller. She answered the call with the mentality of answering early and sending it early.
"Hey—" Xu Promise whispered, glancing at Xi Muchen, who was sleeping.
"It's me. Wen Yan - I'm sorry, I asked An Ran for your phone number-"
It was Wen Yan, who had not heard from him for many days! The promise could not hide the joy on his face. The man on the other end of the line continued.
"That...... I had something to deal with the other day, so ...... Didn't show up for the appointment...... I'm really embarrassed—" Wen Yan's tone was full of guilt and apology, "That'...... Are you free now? Shall we meet?"
Naturally, the promise was made without thinking about it, and readily agreed. For some reason, there is always a little bit of tolerance for Wen Yan in her heart. Maybe it's the fate that the old people are talking about...... To be honest, she and Wen Yan were really speculative, and she was looking forward to meeting Wen Yan! Thinking like this, her pretty face unconsciously flushed.
Promise She quietly hung up the phone, thinking that she was already very careful, but without thinking about it, she still woke up the sleeping Xi Muchen. He opened his sleepy eyes, and he had easily fallen asleep these days. Despite this, he was alert when he fell asleep, and even the slightest movement could wake him up.
However, since the promise came, I have to say that his sleep quality has also improved. At this point, he yawned contentedly.
Xu Yu clutched his phone tightly until she saw that he was relaxed, and then slowly put it back in his trouser pocket. It's just that there is a faint embarrassment on her face, after all, she made an appointment without permission...... And she looked so entangled, obviously thinking about how she should open her mouth to tell Xi Muchen about that matter.
As soon as he woke up, he clearly felt that there was something obviously wrong with the promise. But he didn't take the initiative to ask, just waiting for her to take the initiative to explain to him.
Xu Yu secretly observed Xi Muchen, looking at his silent expression, and his heart became more and more confused. After hesitating for a long time, she staggered to speak.
"Xi Muchen-are you awake, do you want to drink water?" she looked tentatively in Xi Muchen's eyes, and his eyes were unconsciously stained with a smile. Then he maintained his usual look and nodded slowly.
Xu promised to receive the will of the gold lord, and hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it to Xi Muchen. It seemed that she had long been accustomed to something, and she didn't need Xi Muchen to speak, she obediently fed him water.
She stared at the gap and tried to speak.
"That...... Xi Muchen?" She called him softly, and the soft and glutinous voice that had not appeared for a long time sounded in his ears again, and unconsciously, his deep eyes sank.
As if he had expected something, he hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and let out a muffled "Huh?" from the bottom of his throat.
Xu Promise swallowed her saliva, and inexplicably felt like a thief shaking her mind.
"I want to ...... Take a leave of absence today...... A friend asked me out to ......" and Promise finally stumbled to explain to him what had happened. A pair of shining eyes looked expectantly at Xi Muchen, who held the power of decision-making.
When Xi Muchen heard that this was the case, his face turned cold, he was obviously very unhappy, so he didn't think about it, and immediately refused the promised request.
As soon as Xu Yu heard his categorical refusal, his wet eyes instantly dimmed, and the whole person looked like a frosted eggplant, which can be described as languishing.
He was originally hard-hearted and saw her stingy appearance, and his whole heart softened in an instant, and he really couldn't stand the promise of this look. Then, his complexion couldn't help but change, and he changed his words stiffly.
"Ahem...... That one...... It's understandable that you want to go out......" Listening to his words, his originally gloomy eyes instantly lit up, but Xi Muchen's words changed, "However, I have to send you there myself—after all, you're my nanny now, aren't you?"
