Chapter 28: A Man's Face

The night is dark. Jiang Hao hurried home. He may not be able to deeply understand the pain of Chen Jingye's loss of Yunqing. But he really saw Chen Jingye's decadence and crying.

Life. It can be so fragile.

Now. He just wanted to hug Qiao Xinwei well. Needless to say. Any words are pale. Only being together is the most practical.

Back home. He opened the door and entered the house. But the house was pitch black. There was no light at all." Xinwei. Heart-only." He shouted twice. Turn on the lights in the hall at will. There is no one around.

"Heart-only ......" he rushed into the room again. I can't see anyone. His heart suddenly became anxious. Where did it go. Silent and silent.

At this time, Qiao Xinwei was watching TV with her parents at her parents' house. Such a sad night. She didn't want to be left alone.

"Hey. Where are you?" on the phone. Jiang Hao's anxious and worried voice came.

"I'm at my mother's house. What's wrong?"

Jiang Hao breathed a heavy sigh of relief. I didn't come home and I didn't see you, and I thought you had gone. Why don't you tell me?"

"I'm sorry. I forgot. How did you get home. Aren't you accompanying Chen Jingye?"

"Hama accompanied. Let me come back with you. You don't feel good either."

Qiao Xinwei smiled lightly. Ruan always has a heart." Between words. She had already walked through her room to the small balcony.

Jiang Hao said with a taste: "You know that he has a heart. I have that too." There were some things he didn't know where to start. He's not a teenager of seventeen or eighteen anymore. The older you get. The more reluctant to talk about love.

"Then I'll go back now."

"No. I'll pick you up."

"Okay."

Put down your phone. Qiao Xinwei closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She has lived here for ten years. This small balcony records her happiness and unhappiness in the past ten years.

The night breeze is blowing. She felt a chill. She crouched down. Started to take care of the hyacinths that were previously planted. The flowering period of hyacinths has passed. To make it bloom again. It is necessary to cut off the flowers that were dying before. She trimmed it carefully. Hopefully next spring. It can also bloom again.

Suddenly. Behind him a shadow obscured the light in the room. She turned back. I saw Jing Shang slowly walking towards him.

Jing Shang is dressed in casual clothes. Hair is shorter than it used to be. He showed a full forehead and big eyes with thick eyebrows. Looks more spiritual. He puts his hands in his pockets. A relaxed tone." Jiang Hao wants to come over."

"Hmm. He said he didn't have to accompany his friends anymore. He came and picked me up." Qiao Xinwei continued to bow her head and tinker with hyacinths.

"Heart-only. Are you having a good time now?"

"Hmm." She kept her head down. The nose tip is sour. The tip of the heart is also sour. How she longed for Jing Shang to be her own brother. Then she can talk to him when she is wronged.

"But I don't think you're very happy. I watched you grow up. You can't fool me."

Qiao Xinwei still lowered her head and fiddled with hyacinths. She said lightly: "Brother. My colleague who was in a car accident. It's my best friend. She died so miserably. How can I be happy?"

Jing Shang was stunned. All right. It's that he's suspicious. He reached out and patted her on the shoulder. Don't be sad."

"Alas. I'm okay. A few days of sadness have passed. I'm only afraid of her husband and family. I'm going to live in pain for the rest of my life."

Jing Shang stepped forward. Hands on the railing. Leaning forward slightly. He changed the subject." Your mother has been depressed for a long time since you got married. Every time she sits in your room in a daze, I know she's thinking about you again. I will often go home and see it when I have time in the future."

Qiao Xin suddenly felt distressed. The closest to my mother. One of the scissors in her hand accidentally slashed her index finger." Ah......h

"What's wrong....... Oops, why are you so careless." Jing Shang pinched her bleeding wound. Pull her to the bathroom." Bear with it. Wash your hands first. Mother. Take out the disinfectant solution. Xinwei cut his hand."

The whole family panicked. The one who takes the potion takes the potion. Looking for gauze looking for gauze.

Xiang Ling's hand holding the tweezers was trembling. The more you want to tap it, the longer it will take.

Jing Shang was in a hurry. Snatch the tweezers." Mother. I'll come. It must be held down to stop the bleeding. What a line like you."

Jing Zhicheng was squeezed out of the door. Look at the blood that flowed all over the table. Said urgently, "Can you stop the bleeding?" If it doesn't work, go to the hospital."

Qiao Xinwei, who gritted her teeth and endured the pain, looked at everyone's anxious and worried looks. Don't mention how warm it is in my heart. No matter how painful it is, it's worth it. Her eyes were blurry. I feel it in my heart. It's better to be at home. She often said that the Jing family was not her real home. She often complains about her stepfather because of her aunt. She always classifies herself and the Jing family clearly. As everyone knows. It's all her self-righteous self-esteem.

She's been here since she was thirteen. Her stepfather raised her from the age of thirteen to the age of twenty-three. and then marry her beautifully. Whatever an outsider says, that's an outsider. Stepdad never treated her as an outsider. Ten years. He didn't treat her very closely. But it's never bad.

Before I got married, I always felt that I was an outsider in this family. Instead, after getting married. She felt like she was part of the family. A lot of things. Always got this on the portion. will be understood.

"Heart-only. Don't cry. Mom knows it hurts. But I can only endure it. If you want to go to the hospital, you have to stop the bleeding. You can't drain your blood when you go to the hospital like this." Xiang Ling's eyes also reddened. Seeing my daughter suffering. It's not good to be a mother. I can't wait to suffer for my daughter.

Qiao Xinwei shook her head. In the blink of an eye, tears poured down my eyes." I don't cry because it hurts. Instead...... "She looked back at her stepdad in the back." Father. Mother. Elder brother. I'll be coming home more often in the future. Are you welcome?"

Jing Zhicheng nodded. Welcome. Of course welcome. This is your home."

Then. The doorbell rang. Jing Zhicheng went to open the door. It turned out that Jiang Hao came. With the smell of alcohol.

"Driving and drinking."

Jiang Hao hurriedly said, "How can it. I called it. Dad has been in good spirits lately. The heart is the only one."

"Oops, she accidentally scratched her hand. Stop the bleeding in the bathroom and bandage it."

Jiang Hao walked over quickly. I saw Jing Shang holding Qiao Xinwei's hand and carefully applying the disinfectant potion. Worry and tenderness in his eyes. It's definitely not like the friendship between brother and sister. Jiang Hao sighed silently in his heart. I have to introduce a girl to Jing Shang quickly.

"Do you want me to come?"

"No, I don't. It's almost there." Jing Shang carefully applied the band-aid to her wound. One piece is not enough, and another piece is pasted." Such a big opening. Let's go to the hospital. Gotta tetanus shots."

Qiao Xinwei waved his hand. No. That's it. It's so troublesome."

"No. Gotta go." Jing Shang grabbed her hand and didn't let her move. That look of concern. Almost forgot about other people's savings.

Jing Zhicheng and Xiang Ling's expressions were not good in an instant. I'm really worried that my son will do something out of the ordinary.

Jiang Hao's heart is not good. He coughed lightly twice. Ahem. Xinwei. It's not early today. It's time for Mom and Dad to rest. I think we'll go home first. It's the same when you have time."

"Take her to the hospital." Jing Shang looked at Jiang Hao persistently. He saw the wound. It's deep, it's deep.

Jiang Hao was stunned. Nodding his head and saying, "Okay."

Taxi. Jiang Hao, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't hold it back. He said, "Your brother still cares so much about you."

Qiao Xinwei heard his sourness. But she was afraid that he would deny jealousy. She doesn't want to be taken for a fool in her self-righteousness. She said lightly, "Of course my brother cares about me. I'm his sister."

Jiang Hao sneered. Hum. I'm afraid it's not as simple as my sister. You treat him as an older brother. He doesn't deserve you to be a sister. The two of you are not related by blood."

Qiao Xinwei gave him a blank look. Don't want to argue with him. Turn around and look out the window.

Jiang Hao said again: "If I don't come. It's time for him to take you to the hospital." Talking. He said suddenly." Driver. Go to the hospital in front of you."

"What kind of hospital are you going to? I've got it all covered. Is it interesting to go to the hospital and unpack it. Don't go."

The driver was a little embarrassed. These little two are making a fuss. I don't know who to listen to.

Jiang Hao drank wine. I'm a little more tempered than usual." Go to the hospital. I said go to the hospital and go to the hospital. Save you from contracting some kind of disease, and your brother will have to blame me for not taking good care of me."

"Huh. Jiang Hao, why are you so unreasonable?"

Jiang Hao took the initiative to take out his wallet. Drew five heads and threw them forward." Go to the hospital."

The driver smiled and said, "No need to do so much. You two have something to say."

Uncle Jiang Hao threw the money in front of him." Master. You take it. We'll go down to the hospital. And then I'll have to bother you to wait. We have to go home."

"Huh. Okay."

Thereupon. The taxi drove to the hospital and stopped. Jiang Hao pulled Qiao Xinwei out of the car.

The night is silent. Only the chirping of insects in the grass by the roadside. Ringing tirelessly.

Jiang Hao dragged Qiao Xinwei to the emergency room. Qiao Xinwei frowned and pouted. Extremely reluctant." It's just scratched. The bags are all wrapped. Wouldn't it hurt to recheck again? It's not necessary at all."

"Your brother said that. Be sure to take it to the hospital for injections. Tetanus shots."

Qiao Xinwei felt that he couldn't pull ten cows when he got up. A tendon in the brain." You don't have to make trouble. Is it funny to do such childish things all the time?" He just generously threw five hundred dollars to the driver's eldest brother. It's obviously intentional. She didn't look good at it.

"I'm being vexatious. I'm worried about your injury. That's also wrong."

Qiao Xinwei stopped. Said angrily: "Jiang Hao. You don't have to make an inch. I don't want to quarrel with you. If you're not jealous, don't give me the illusion that you're jealous. I'm stupid. I wouldn't be able to tell."

Jiang Hao looked back. Look at her with red eyes. So a sharp shot at his pretended generosity. He was a little confused. What's wrong with me. I obviously wanted to make her happy.

"My brother cares about me too. It doesn't matter what he does to me. He's my brother. I ......"

The words were not finished. Jiang Hao suddenly hugged her. Bow your head and kiss her. Swallow all her anger and resentment into her mouth. He admits that he feels bad. Seeing other men care so much about her. And he only made her sad. He was scared. He was jealous. But. He didn't dare admit it. For the sake of his little ridiculous man's face.
