Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Tenant

When Ling Xiao and the two arrived at the hospital, the godmother was walking accompanied by a nurse, and when she saw Ling Xiao, she hurriedly beckoned to Ling Xiao and the two, and then found a shade and sat down.

"Mom! Don't freak people out, they haven't passed the door yet! Ling Xiao enjoyed this feeling of a family of three, and squeezed her eyebrows at her godmother.

"Humph! What to say? Auntie is amiable, if you bully me in the future, I will ask Auntie to help teach you a lesson! Liu Jiao snorted coldly, hugged her godmother's shoulders, looked like a daughter, and chatted privately.

Ling Xiao, the middleman, was instantly cold, but he didn't care, he picked up a fan for a while, fanned the two of them, and poured tea and water for the thirsty two people who said for a while, he understood that there was not much time for the godmother, and I am afraid that it would really be a day less in the future.

"Mom, where are my brothers and sisters? You took me as a godson, you have to show them, right? Seeing that the two were a little tired of talking, Ling Xiao whispered a tentative word.

Although he has always regarded his godmother as his own mother and has always enjoyed it, Ling Xiao also knows that the godmother must find a way to tell her the real son and daughter, the family affection that blood is thicker than water, this is what the old man wants to see the most, and now he is just a substitute.

"They're supposed to be busy, right?" The godmother had a thoughtful look on her face, and looked for a long time at the northern location, which was the direction where her children were, as if she could see whether their lives were good or not.

"Mom! Call your brothers and sisters! I think you miss them too! Ling Xiao had an encouraging smile on his face and handed over his mobile phone, but he knew that he was afraid that his godmother would not have so much time to wait.

"Hmm!"

The godmother seemed to be encouraged, took the phone with trembling hands, and skillfully pressed the number, but no one answered for a long time, and finally could only hand the phone back to Ling Xiao in disappointment and said: "Maybe they are all busy!" ”

When I came out of the hospital, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and there was no point in going back to work, and Sister Wei and the others did not call back, indicating that Wang Wei had not returned to the office.

Liu Jiao was going to accompany Liu's father for chemotherapy tonight, Ling Xiao wanted to stay, but was pushed out by Liu Jiao, after all, this kind of thing was too time-consuming, and she felt that there was no need for both of them to be consumed here, so Ling Xiao could only go back.

"Let's go home and get some sleep!" Ling Xiao stretched his waist and walked directly in the direction of home, he already had the phone number of his godmother's son, and he planned to call them when he woke up, and tell them about the situation here, when the time comes, whether they will do their filial piety or take a look when they are dying, it is not something that Ling Xiao can control.

"Kick!"

Just as Ling Xiao was about to turn into the community, only one turn away from being able to go home, he suddenly heard the sound of high heels hitting the ground from the location of his house.

This voice was vaguely familiar to him, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it, so he didn't care, and walked straight forward, after all, he met a random person on the street, and Ling Xiao didn't have the idea of analyzing the other party's situation.

"Ahh

At this moment, from the corner position, a figure rushed out, the other party seemed to be walking fast, seeing Ling Xiao startled, the whole person immediately retreated back, but her right foot was crooked, and the whole person was about to be planted.

"Whoosh!"

Ling Xiao's body rushed out in an instant, and the latter came first, quickly appearing behind the figure, supporting the opponent's small waist with both hands, and directly holding the other party in his arms.

A typical Oriental woman's face, slender posture, not too proud of the figure, but it is the feeling of showing off wisdom, especially when the other party is wearing a black women's suit and slender trousers, like two cones standing there, people will inadvertently think of those teacher images in island country action movies.

"Thank you!"

The woman smiled awkwardly, stood up by herself, turned her face and just wanted to say something to Ling Xiao, but the moment she saw Ling Xiao, she was stunned, and said with an embarrassed smile on her face: "I'm sorry!" I didn't mean to run that day! ”

"It's okay, when I often look in the mirror, I also realize that I am not a good person!" Ling Xiao smiled, this woman was the woman who came back from shopping in Xiaofei's supermarket last time to save her, and then the other party ran away, although Ling Xiao didn't see it really at that time, but when she saw it again, she recognized it at a glance.

"Huh! You are so humorous, my name is Dongfang Xiaoxue, it's a pleasure to meet you! The beauty smiled awkwardly, but stretched out her jade hand generously.

"My name is Ling Xiao, and I didn't follow anyone this time, right?" Ling Xiao and Dongfang Xiaoxue's hands shook hands, but they were only touched away, if this scene was seen by other women, they would definitely be surprised, when did Ling Xiao become so polite, in fact, it was not the case, because Ling Xiao was a little resistant to the surname Dongfang.

"No one is chasing after you this time! Last time, I actually wanted to come back to you, but you know, I'm a girl, helpless, and I can't help when I come back, but then I called the police, but they said they didn't see you! Dongfang Xiaoxue smiled awkwardly and hurriedly explained, after all, people saved themselves at the beginning, but they ran away, which was too embarrassing.

"I thought you were afraid of me* You promised me!" Ling Xiao naturally didn't want to deliberately make things difficult for Dongfang Xiaoxue, although he was resistant to Dongfang, but he also had a good impression of beautiful women, and he was about to turn around and go home after smiling.

"Ling Xiao!"

At this moment, Dongfang Xiaoxue suddenly caught up, pointed to Ling Xiao's room and said, "You live here?" ”

"Yes! Would you like to come in and sit down? Ling Xiao opened the door and sent an invitation to Dongfang Xiaoxue, in his mind, Dongfang Xiaoxue should want to repay his life-saving grace, so naturally he didn't want to stand outside.

"Huh? All right! Dongfang Xiaoxue just hesitated a little, and then walked into Ling Xiao's house, Liu Jiao had already cleaned up for Ling Xiao this morning, otherwise it would be really miserable.

Ling Xiao took out two cups of tea from the position of the kitchen, that is, put a little loose tea leaves, originally Ling Xiao did not think that his home would be patronized one after another, at that time, he sold tea, but he just didn't want to drink plain water, he himself was not very interested in tea.

"Ling Xiao, does anyone live across from you? I rang the doorbell for a long time, and there was no one! Dongfang Xiaoxue took the tea, but she didn't be too polite with Ling Xiao, it seemed raw, and at the same time, the lonely man and widow would be embarrassed, and asked straight to the point.

"That's my godmother's house, she's in the hospital now, do you have something to do with her?" Ling Xiao looked at Dongfang Xiaoxue curiously, after all, his godmother has always rarely spoken to others, and he was really not sure if the two really knew each other.

"Hospitalized? I came to see the rental notice she posted at the door of the community and wanted to come and see it! Dongfang Xiaoxue had a disappointed look on her face, and the whole person fell silent.

At this time, Ling Xiao had also recalled that on the night when he rescued Dongfang Xiaoxue that day, he once heard his godmother say that she wanted to rent a house, and she originally wanted to take care of her, but she didn't expect that people were not as good as heaven, and she was finally admitted to the hospital directly.

"Actually, my godmother and I have the same house type, you can visit here, if you are satisfied, I will go to the hospital to help you get the key!" Ling Xiao finally came up with a compromise.

In fact, Ling Xiao also understands the thoughts of the older generation, after all, he is just the godmother and godson, if she keeps paying for the old man to live in the hospital, I am afraid that her old man will not be happy, if she can rent out the room, but it is not impossible to alleviate it.

"Ahh That's really thank you, I'm a teacher in the art department of Tianhai University, you should be able to rest assured, I actually want to rent a house to be close to the school, there are no special requirements, now I have you as a neighbor, naturally I am more assured! ”

Dongfang Xiaoxue was overjoyed, and her impression of Ling Xiao was good, so she nodded and agreed directly, after all, it would be much more convenient to live with a bodyguard by her side.

"Teacher?"

Ling Xiao's heart was pounding, he was an elite who often specialized in action movies, and he had a soft spot for the two roles of nurses and teachers.

It's just that Ling Xiao is too good at acting, and he doesn't show anything on his face, after all, Xiaoxue may live opposite in the future, he has a chance, so naturally he won't show his tail too early, this kind of thing should be gradual.

"Don't you think I'm not like a teacher?" Dongfang Xiaoxue smiled at Ling Xiao with a serious face, but there was still no trace of stern temperament on her face, but there was a cute and playful feeling.

"Hehe, I thought you were a student? Too young! Ling Xiao explained awkwardly, and then let him take the initiative to take Dongfang Xiaoxue to visit the room, after all, this is part of his source of income in the future, and he naturally can't be sloppy with the treatment of tenants.

"Didi!"

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the sky has completely darkened, Dongfang Xiaoxue's mobile phone suddenly rang, it should be a text message, she smiled awkwardly: "My student has something to look for me, I can't invite you to dinner tonight, will I invite you next time?" ”

"Hmmm! Then I'll send you! Ling Xiao took a coat from the closet, and followed Dongfang Xiaoxue in the direction of the university town, after all, it was already dark now, and the people who pursued her last time made Ling Xiao always suspicious, so she was not at ease that her tenant would leave by himself.

The two of them were silent all the way and didn't say anything, after all, the two have only met twice so far, and neither of them is the kind of person who can talk nonsense, nor is it a couple with affection, so there is no topic.

"That's it! I'm here, go back, we'll see you tomorrow! ”

It wasn't until the teaching building of the art department that Dongfang Xiaoxue waved her hand at Ling Xiao, turned around and ran into the teaching building.

"Teacher, you're finally here, Ke'er's work is about to be submitted for review this time, and you have to help check it, right?" An ordinary-looking tomboy with short hair watched Dongfang Xiaoxue walk in with a dissatisfied expression.

"Huh! Qingying's level is also very high, with your check, Lin Keer's work will definitely be able to get a good result this time! Dongfang Xiaoxue didn't have the teacher's frame at all, and the student looked like she was completely able to play a piece, joking with the tomboy, and looked at the girl who was standing not far away, looking intently at the canvas.

This person is none other than Lin Ke'er, who had an entanglement with Ling Xiao on the plane, and now the brush in her hand is gently outlined, and a hazy figure suddenly appears on the canvas.
