"Because," Ye Xiaojing said, "I may be leaving, old lady!" ”

"It's good, why do you have to leave? Could it be that Qixin is dissatisfied with you? Old Madam Cheng hurriedly asked.

Ye Xiaojing said frankly: "It's not that the young master is dissatisfied with me, but I decided to have surgery!" ”

"Oh? Could it be that Mr. Yue Lei contacted the doctor for you? Mrs. Cheng asked.

"Yes." Ye Xiaojing nodded.

"If that's the case, then I won't be able to keep you." Old Madam Cheng sighed slightly and said, "Miss Ye, I also know your economic situation, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me, I won't sit idly by, you know?" ”

"Thank you, old lady!"

When I came out of Mrs. Cheng's room and walked through the living room, I happened to meet Cheng Qixin coming down from upstairs and seeing Ye Xiaojing, Cheng Qixin asked her casually, "What are you looking for grandma?" ”

Ye Xiaojing said: "It's nothing, it's-"

"Huh?" Cheng Qixin originally asked casually, but now seeing her hesitating, she became curious.

Ye Xiaojing thought about it, and finally said, "Young master, I think, I will resign next month!" ”

"Resign?!"

Cheng Qixin was shocked, walked in front of her in a few steps, stared at her and said, "What's the reason?" ”

Ye Xiaojing had to talk about the fact that she met Yue Lei in the middle of the New Year and was about to go for surgery.

Cheng Qixin was silent for a long time after listening to this, and it wasn't until Ye Xiaojing hesitated in his heart whether he should leave quietly and quietly, that he let out a low breath and said, "Ye Xiaojing, you—"

"Well, what's the matter?" Ye Xiaojing just moved her steps, and suddenly stood up again and asked.

Cheng Qixin raised his eyes and stared at Ye Xiaojing, and looked at it for a long time, then sighed lightly: "Forget it, let's talk about it later." Then he turned around and went back upstairs.

Ye Xiaojing, who was being looked at very uncomfortably by Cheng Qixin's eyes, couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief after he turned around, she looked at Cheng Qixin's back leaving with some confusion, and always felt that the young master seemed to be a little strange just now.

Standing there for a moment, Ye Xiaojing shook her head and threw aside the chaotic thoughts in her head - no matter what happened, she just had to do her job.

"Mi-"

Suddenly, the cat Xiao Hei, who had been staying in Mrs. Cheng's room before, suddenly jumped in front of Ye Xiaojing, Ye Xiaojing bent down, picked up Xiao Hei who was stuck to her legs, and chuckled: "Xiao Hei, why did you come out?" Are you hungry, then I'll take you to eat. ”

Holding the little white cat, Ye Xiaojing got up and walked towards the kitchen, unaware that behind her, there was a pair of eyes staring at her with a complicated gaze in the two places upstairs and downstairs.

The next day, Cheng's company.

Since the two assistant clerks required by Cheng Qixin have been in place, Ye Xiaojing's work has become a lot easier than a few days ago.

After handing over the task of distributing documents to various departments to the two assistants, Ye Xiaojing was about to return to her seat to finish the previous report, however, as soon as she sat down, the mobile phone in her bag suddenly rang.

Ye Xiaojing took out the phone and found that the number on it was a little unfamiliar, she hesitated slightly, and then pressed answer.

The call came from the landlady.

On the phone, the landlady told her that her sister Ye Xiaoman was sick and very serious.

Ye Xiaojing was surprised and surprised when she heard this, and she subconsciously asked, "Landlady, when did my sister get sick?" She was fine when I was at home the other day! ”

The landlady said: "It's just these two days, the weather was bad two days ago, she was probably drenched in rain, and now she is too sick to get up; I went to collect the rent yesterday, knocked on the door for a long time before someone opened, I saw her like this, and after I went back, I cooked some porridge for her to send over, when I sent the porridge, I told her, let her call you back to take care of a few days, she still refused, I didn't have your phone at that time, so I went back; I went to see her again this morning, and I know—"

Ye Xiaojing listened to the landlady's chatter for a long time, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but feel nervous, and hurriedly asked in a trembling voice, "How do you know what?" My sister, what's wrong with her now? ”

The landlady said, "Ouch! I think she seems to be more serious today, she has a fever and is talking nonsense, I look at you, it's better to come back and take a look! ”

After Ye Xiaojing put down the phone, she hurriedly asked Cheng Qixin for leave, and after going out, she called a taxi and rushed back.

After blocking several red lights in the city, Ye Xiaojing finally returned home, took out the key to open the door, and found that the landlady was also at her house.

Seeing Ye Xiaojing coming back, the landlady got up from the sofa she was sitting on and said, "Ye Xiaojing, you're back!" ”

Although anxious, Ye Xiaojing still said hello: "Well, the landlady, is my sister okay?" ”

The landlady said, "She just took medicine, and now the fever seems to have gone away a little." ”

After hearing this, Ye Xiaojing relieved her heart a little, and she said to the landlady gratefully: "It's really troublesome for you to take care of my sister-"

"Hey, it's nothing, everyone is so close, and it should be taken care of." Saying that, the landlady said to Ye Xiaojing, "Then I'll go back first, if you have anything to help, you can come down and find me!" ”

"Okay, thank you so much!"

Seeing off the landlady, Ye Xiaojing hurriedly walked to the bedroom to see her sister's situation.

On the simple wooden plank bed, Ye Xiaoman was sleeping with a thin quilt on her body, Ye Xiaojing walked over and gently stroked her sister's forehead, and the burning sensation came from the bottom and entered the palm of her hand.

Ye Xiaojing let go of her hand, looked at her sister's pale sleeping face, and couldn't help but shed a tear.

The only window in the room was tightly closed, Ye Xiaojing walked over and opened the window a little crack, and suddenly, the fresh wind entered the room along with the sunlight, bringing a little life to this small and simple space.

Then, Ye Xiaojing came to the kitchen, fetched a basin of cold water and returned to the room.

Ye Xiaojing soaked the towel in cold water and folded it on Ye Xiaoman's forehead; After that, she sat down on the edge of the bed and silently accompanied her sleeping sister.

By the time Ye Xiaoman finally woke up, it was already twilight outside.

Ye Xiaoman opened her eyes and found that the room outside was lit up, and she also smelled the aroma of broth on the tip of her nose, when she was about to sit up from the bed, the light in the room was suddenly turned on, Ye Xiaoman hurriedly looked towards the door and found that it was actually Ye Xiaojing standing there.

"Xiaojing, when did you come back?" Ye Xiaoman sat up and asked softly in some surprise.

"Sister, are you awake?"
