154. Cryptic confessions

Xia Nianxi bit her lower lip and stared at the door anxiously.

After hesitating, she told herself that saving her life was to accumulate blessings for herself and her children......

Walking to the door, taking a deep breath, she slowly opened the door.

Rong Xiu looked at her with an inevitable smile in his eyes, Xia Nianxi didn't see his eyes, just lowered his head and made way for him to come in, "Give you ten minutes, I still have to sleep." ”

"Okay." Rong Xiu didn't pester her, and walked into the bathroom.

Opening the door of the room, Xia Nianxi turned on the bed lamp, sat on the edge of the bed, and glanced at the bathroom door vigilantly from time to time.

Unable to sleep, she took out her mobile phone, it was three o'clock in the morning, and it should be around ten o'clock in China, and sent a text message to Meng Yao: I can't sleep.

During this time, there was already a tacit understanding between the two of them, every time Xia Nianxi said that she couldn't sleep, Meng Yao would call, which was comparable to 24 filial piety girlfriends.

Sure enough, within a minute, Meng Yao's phone called, Xia Nianxi walked out of the room with her mobile phone, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window before picking up the phone, "Meng Yao." ”

"Is Rome pretty? Are people easy to get along with? Does Joan City have any indications? You lonely men and widows......" Meng Yao's words were all jokes.

Xia Nianxi glanced back at the door, and didn't know how to tell Meng Yao that Rong Xiu was taking a bath there, and she and Qiao Ancheng were just ordinary friends.

If she told Meng Yao, she would probably be so angry that she wouldn't be able to sleep well at night, so she wouldn't talk about it.

The rain stopped, take a look at the ground downstairs, under the night light, you can vaguely see that the ground is just damp, is it so stingy when it rains in this place?

Suddenly poked at the laughing point inexplicably, Xia Nianxi couldn't help laughing, and as soon as she turned her mind, she asked softly: "Do you have anything you want, send it to me and I'll buy it for you." ”

"I definitely want a gift, you can see and buy it yourself."

Meng Yao yawned, leaned against the head of the bed, held the mobile phone in one hand, and slid on the tablet with the other, slowly removing the funny ingredients, "You know?" Situ Yin disappeared. ”

"Isn't it normal for this circle to disappear alone? Situ Yin's reputation was ruined, and she could only choose to leave, after all, the entertainment industry has always been cruel! ”

She hasn't been seen for so long, maybe many people have forgotten about her, and this kind of thing happens every day.

It's just that she doesn't care anymore, and when she becomes a mother and feels the child in her womb growing up, she can understand those women who give up everything for the sake of their children.

Now let her give up everything for the sake of her child, and she has no hesitation.

"Not only that, she's completely gone, all her news is gone, and now no one knows where she is."

"Is it that serious? Didn't it still appear in the headlines the other day? ”

Meng Yao saw a news headline again, clicked in, the article had been deleted, and her brows furrowed slightly, "Really, it's been two days, no matter where she has been reported, I clicked on a lot of news about her, and all of them have been deleted." She can't afford to buy these reporters at all in her current state, I don't know who helped her? ”

"Leave her alone, don't mess with me in the future, I'll treat her as if I haven't seen her."

The sound of rain in the room stopped, Xia Nianxi glanced back, and hurriedly spoke: "Don't talk about it yet, go to bed early, bye." ”

She hung up the phone in a hurry, Meng Yao didn't have time to say anything else, and muttered in a low voice, "What's the hurry?" Xuanyuan Xuexue didn't tell you when something happened. ”

Forget it, sleep, these big names have nothing to do with her anyway!

Xia Nianxi put away her mobile phone, turned around, just as Rong Xiu walked out of the room, the two made eye contact, Xia Nianxi moved away indifferently, walked to the bar and picked up a bottle of water to drink.

Rong Xiu asked, "What about calling Meng Yao just now?" ”

Xia Nianxi paused and looked back at him, "How do you know?" ”

"At this time, you must be calling back to China, who else can you contact besides her." Rong Xiu used declarative sentences, not interrogative sentences.

"It's raining outside, you can ask the driver to pick you up." Putting down the water glass, Xia Nianxi walked towards him, missed him and walked straight to the room.

Rong Xiu reached out and grabbed her arm, "Does it have to be such a stranger between us?" ”

Xia Nianxi stopped, and there was a cold aura around her body that rejected people thousands of miles away, "Isn't this normal?" There's no way I'm going to be friends with you. ”

Rong Xiu lowered his posture and explained: "The divorce agreement is really an expedient measure, I didn't think about divorcing you." ”

She lowered her head, and only after making a psychological defense line did she slowly raise her head to look at Rong Xiu, and said calmly: "It's ridiculous to say this again, you should be related to Situ Yin now, not me." Rong Xiu, I want to treat you as a stranger, not an enemy, and I want you to do the same. ”

Was it a clenched fist or betrayed her nervousness.

"As I said, it can't be. We got married in City A, and if the Situ family could use their power to change their marriage status, we wouldn't have had so many things at that time. So you can't change it, as long as I don't sign, you'll always be my wife! Rong Xiu's voice was cold, with a hint of determination.

"Why bother......" Xia Nianxi slowly closed his eyes, "Situ-"

Rong Xiu stopped her words sharply, reached out to hold Xia Nianxi's shoulder, and roared: "Enough, the matter between us, why do you want to involve an irrelevant person?" ”

Xia Nianxi struggled hard, her breath was heavy, "That's because she's in the middle, she's not an irrelevant person for a long time, she has ...... How can you tell me so justifiably that there was just a misunderstanding between us? ”

Hearing Xia Nianxi's heavy breathing, Rong Xiu immediately let go of her, and Qiao Ancheng reminded him that Nianxi's mood fluctuations should not be too big, and her body couldn't bear it.

"What's wrong with you? Why did it become so weak? Did you hurt your body by beating the child? Hasn't the Situ family been helping you regulate your body? Why hasn't it been so long? Rong Xiu looked at her worriedly.

"It's none of your business." Turning around and walking towards the room, Xia Nianxi took a deep breath to calm herself down, she couldn't be excited.

Rong Xiu doesn't know anything, so it's best.

She had tried so hard to have a child with him, but he always refused, and since he didn't want it so much, let her guard her treasure alone.

Returning to the room and closing the door, Xia Nianxi kept trying to calm down, walking around the room, and kept telling herself not to be angry, not excited, and not to care......

Early in the morning, the doorbell rang in the room, Rong Xiu got up from the sofa, walked to the door, and opened the door.

"Xia-" The smile on Cheng Nuo's face froze in place, and he looked at Rong Xiu in shock, "Why are you here?" ”

Glancing at Cheng Nuo, Rong Xiu instructed expressionlessly, "She's still sleeping, go prepare some breakfast, ask for Chinese!" ”

"Yes, I'll go." Cheng Nuo nodded respectfully and turned stiffly to prepare breakfast.

Aren't they going to get divorced?

Isn't Xia Nianxi with Dr. Qiao? Why are the two ...... again?

Xia Nianxi walked out of the room in a daze, her hair was messy, her eyes were blurry, she walked behind Rong Xiu, leaned her head on his back, and her voice was glutinous, "Who?" ”

Rong Xiu's body was shocked, and then the expression on his face was so gentle that he could turn into water, and he turned his head and coaxed softly: "Don't worry about room service, go sleep for a while, good." ”

"Hmm!" Xia Nianxi closed her eyes, and her breathing gradually stabilized.

Rong Xiu hugged her, Xia Nianxi was startled, and was about to wake up, Rong Xiu pressed his forehead against her forehead, "Sleep for a while, I'll accompany you." ”

Stretching out his hand to wrap his hand around Rong Xiu's neck, Xia Nianxi soon fell asleep again.

Carrying Xia Nianxi back to the room and putting her on the bed, Rong Xiu lay beside her, looking down at her sleeping face affectionately, thinking of her indifference when she was awake, it was more cute to fall asleep like this.

"What the hell are you going to do to let go of the mustard in your heart?" Bowing his head and kissing her forehead, Rong Xiu sighed.

At ten o'clock, Xia Nianxi woke up naturally, sat up, stretched his waist, got out of bed and walked into the bathroom to wash.

When I was brushing my teeth, I looked up and saw myself in the mirror, and I was suddenly stunned.

As if in a daze, she reached out and touched her forehead, quickly pulling away as if she had been burned.

How could she have that kind of dream, was it because Rong Xiu was outside?

After washing, I walked to the door, I didn't know if Rong Xiu was still there, my hand was pressed on the doorknob, and I didn't want to open the door for a long time.

Knock knock!

Xia Nianxi was so frightened that she took two steps back, and her heart jumped wildly.

"Miss Xia, are you up? It's already nine o'clock. Cheng Nuo asked outside the door.

Xia Nianxi sorted out her emotions and opened the door, "Just ready to come out." ”

Her eyes swept around the suite, but she didn't see a familiar figure, and while she was relieved, a faint sense of loss rose in her heart, but she deliberately ignored it.

It takes time to get used to being away from someone, she just gets used to her, just gets used to it, and keeps hypnotizing herself in her heart.

Cheng Nuo didn't reveal her strange behavior, and pointed to the breakfast on the table, "I bought breakfast, you eat something." ”

"Okay."

Walking to the table and looking at the rich Chinese breakfast on the table, Xia Nianxi looked at Cheng Nuo in surprise, "Thank you, how do you know that I like to eat these?" ”

With a faint smile on his face, Cheng Nuo stood one meter away from Xia Nianxi and said, "I guess, many Chinese people are not used to outside food after going abroad, and I feel that you should like these." ”

Sitting down and picking up a bowl of porridge and taking a sip, Xia Nianxi showed a satisfied expression, "Although I can eat some Western food, I still have a very authentic Chinese stomach." ”

After breakfast, Cheng Nuo took Xia Nianxi out for a walk.

The pace of life in Rome is very slow, at nine o'clock, there are no pedestrians coming and going, many shops are not open, and people are jogging on the road from time to time.

"It's a great environment."

"It didn't work before, but it's only slowly improved in the past few decades."

The two of them walked and walked to Piazza del Hautsa.

Cheng Nuo pointed to the building in front of him and explained: "Miss Xia, the building you see now is a 19th-century neoclassical building, the scientific name is the Victor Emmanuel II Memorial Hall, but many translators will translate it as 'wedding cake' or 'typewriter'. ”

Xia Nianxi raised his head and took in the entire building, the building from hundreds of years ago is still so exquisite, it is worthy of being an eternal city.

Pulling out her camera and taking a few steps back, she took a picture of the church.

"This church was built to commemorate the year of the unification of Italy and took ......"

As soon as Cheng Nuo talked about history, the whole person seemed to have changed as a person, she was flying, confident, and there was a charm that people couldn't ignore between her gestures.

Why should such a woman be a tour guide for her, and also a nanny.

At noon, Qiao Ancheng called her and invited her to lunch, thinking of Qiao Ancheng's help yesterday, she felt that she couldn't refuse this meal.

Cheng Nuo stood quietly aside, didn't speak, and waited for her to hang up the phone before speaking, "Are you going back?" ”

Xia Nianxi nodded, turned around and walked back, "Well, you can't accompany me at noon today, go do your own thing, I'll go out with my friends." ”

"Dr. Qiao and that Mr. Yung, are they one of them?"

Xia Nianxi looked at Cheng Nuo suspiciously, in the past two days, Cheng Nuo is not at all like a person who gossips about other people's affairs, how could she suddenly be interested in who she goes out to eat with?

Cheng Nuo also found that he had asked something he shouldn't have asked, and looked at her apologetically.

Back at the hotel, Qiao Ancheng's car had arrived, Xia Nianxi said to Cheng Nuo, and got into Qiao Ancheng's car.

Watching the car drive away, Cheng Nuo's eyes flashed with a complicated look.

"I'm supposed to invite you for this meal, give me a chance for me to invite you, Dr. Joe?"

Qiao Ancheng concentrated on driving, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "Your tour guide is very conscientious and will take you to enjoy the scenery early in the morning." ”

Xia Nianxi also echoed: "She is very powerful, takes good care of me, and makes it a lot easier for me here." ”

"It's really amazing to be able to get her." Qiao Ancheng had something to say, and Xia Nianxi wanted to ask, but found that they had deviated from the city and drove to the suburbs.

"Where are we going?"

Qiao Ancheng stopped the car, turned his head to look at Xia Nianxi, without his usual gentleness and gentlemanly demeanor, so calm that people couldn't guess his mood, "Nianxi, let me take you around today, okay?" ”

"Of course."

Hearing her answer, Qiao Ancheng finally smiled, started the car again, and they drove towards the ranch manor with no end in sight.

They went to a manor ranch called Merlot and the lunch was lamb chops, "It's an authentic Italian lunch, please let me serve you, my miss." ”

Qiao Ancheng pulled out a chair, Xia Nianxi smiled at him and thanked him, and then sat down.

During the whole eating process, Qiao Ancheng was like a conscientious senior housekeeper, serving Xia Nianxi thoughtfully and thoughtfully, but he didn't eat much.

After eating, Qiao Ancheng took her to the fence of the ranch, which surrounded the animals of the ranch and strictly divided the space for the poultry to move.

Leaning on the fence, looking up to receive the baptism of the sun, the midday sun, pouring down from the leaves, not stinging but warm.

Xia Nianxi looked at the horses in the distance, but because of the height problem, he could only see the body of the horse.

"I spent my childhood and high school here." Qiao Ancheng stood on the fence and opened his arms to meet the sun.

Xia Nianxi was a little surprised, I heard that only his grandmother's grandmother in his family was a Roman Chinese, so in his generation, there should be no foreign relatives in the family, how could he live here when he was a child?

As if guessing her doubts, Qiao Ancheng bent down and stretched out his hand towards Xia Nianxi, "Do you want to stand up and see more clearly." ”

"It's too high, it's too high, I don't want it."

The fence is up to her shoulder, what if she doesn't stand firm and falls?

"I've loved standing on it since I was a kid, try it, you'll find it fun." Qiao Ancheng jumped down from the fence and picked up Xia Nianxi.

"Ahh Suddenly picked up, Xia Nianxi's face turned to the side, and he grabbed Qiao Ancheng's clothes. "Dr. Joe."

"Don't worry, I won't let you fall."

Stepping on the pillar of the fence, Xia Nianxi slowly let go of Qiao Ancheng, squatted under his support, and then slowly stood up.

"Wow!"

She saw dozens of horses running, hundreds of sheep walking leisurely, the sun shining on her body, and the endless green, all in the most comfortable state.

"How's the mood?"

"The mood was suddenly relaxed, looking at this scene, I felt that I was sad, and all the worries were nothing. It's not as leisurely as a horse or a sheep. ”

"When I was sent here, I cried and refused to stay, and someone took me up to it, and I calmed down. She said, the sky is blue and the grass is green, the clouds are light and the wind is light, what else is there to worry about! ”

"yes, that's a great man, your friend?"

"Well, my first love." Qiao Ancheng looked back at her and smiled softly.

Xia Nianxi was stunned for a moment, I heard Meng Yao say that he had a girlfriend in college, and it turned out to be a childhood sweetheart.

"I'll take you to her!" Qiao Ancheng suddenly jumped down and stretched out his hands, "I'll take you down." ”

Looking around, there were no steps for her to go down, it was okay to jump so high, but now that she is pregnant, how can she jump.

"Come on."

He wants to take her to meet his girlfriend, so he must have something else on her mind! This also made Xia Nianxi a lot easier.

Stretched out his hand and handed it to Qiao Ancheng, jumped down, and was firmly hugged by Qiao Ancheng, Xia Nianxi pushed him away awkwardly, "Thank you." ”

"Let's go, she lives in a very dreamy place, I'll take you there."

Following behind Qiao Ancheng and walking to the stable, Qiao Ancheng neatly strapped a white horse, "Do you want to sit and watch?" ”

"I don't know how to ride a horse, don't do it."

Qiao Ancheng patted the saddle, "Don't worry, I'm here, I won't let you fall." ”

If she could, of course she wanted to ride a horse, or a beautiful white horse, this kind of opportunity was hard to come by, but the horse riding was very bumpy, would it hurt the child.

"Don't worry, I'll lead the horse, it won't be bumpy."

In the end, Xia Nianxi still couldn't resist the temptation, and with the help of Qiao Ancheng, he got on the horse.

Hold the saddle tightly, take a deep breath, feel the strength of the horse under the crotch, Xia Nianxi's heart is beating wildly.

Joan Cheng led the horses in front of them, passing through the pasture, and they walked leisurely forward.

Along the way, Xia Nianxi was curious, where did his first love live?

Finally they stopped in front of a log cabin.

Just stay here?

"Come, come down." Qiao Ancheng helped her to dismount, tied the horse to the tree, and the two approached the cabin.

Xia Nianxi thought he was going in, but he went around to the back.

A tombstone stands quietly to the left of the cabin.

"She'......"

"It's been ten years since she died."

"Wasn't your first crush a college classmate?" When asked, Xia Nianxi immediately covered her mouth, she accidentally told the gossip that Meng Yao had found.

Qiao Ancheng glanced at her, and a smile appeared in his eyes, "That's a trick, my first love is here." Before she died, I promised her that one day when I found a woman worthy of my protection, I would definitely bring her over. Alice, I brought her here. ”

After he finished speaking, he took out a dried little daisy from his pocket and put it on the tombstone, with a trace of nostalgia in his eyes, "She likes daisies, but she hates to pick the flowers, and I will give a dried little daisy every time I come." Nianxi, this is the last time I'll see her. ”

Xia Nianxi froze in place for a moment, and it was neither left nor left behind. Is Qiao Ancheng secretly confessing to her?

But she didn't like him at all, so could she say no to him at this time?

Xia Nianxi changed the topic and asked in a low voice: "How could she ...... so young?"

"She had hemolysis and was controlled with medication until she was sixteen years old. That's why I went to study medicine, and I wanted to save more lives as young as her. ”

Qiao Ancheng said a lot, Xia Nianxi didn't speak, just listened, looking at Qiao Ancheng's back, he always kept smiling, he was light and light, but his back was so lonely.

They have been here for a long time, and Xia Nianxi is dutiful as a listener. Listen to a pure first love, no quarrels, no third party, the heartbeat of a teenager, pure without a trace of flaws.

They chatted with Alice, watched the sun set, and finally froze at the moment when the afterglow fell on Joan Cheng's side face.

Driving back to the door of the hotel and getting out of the car, Xia Nianxi was just about to say goodbye, but Qiao Ancheng reached out and hugged him, "Thank you." ”

Xia Nianxi slowly relaxed herself, she reached out and hugged him back, "Qiao Ancheng, you want to be happy, you give hope to others, you deserve to have happiness." ”

"You know what I want, and if you want me to be happy, you know how."

The warmth was broken by embarrassment, Xia Nianxi let go of him, and lowered his head guiltily, "I'm sorry, I-"

Qianancheng stretched out his index finger and touched her lips, "Don't be in a hurry to speak yet, I said I would wait for you." I don't expect a month to completely squeeze a person out of your heart, at least, you should give me a chance, don't you? ”

"......" had no reason to refuse, and he didn't want to fall into the well when he was sad, Xia Nianxi could only remain silent.

Turning back to the hotel, Rong Xiu was standing at the door, his eyes shooting coldly at Qiao Ancheng.

Xia Nianxi paused, ignored his existence, and walked into the hotel.

I got into the elevator in a panic, returned to the suite in one breath, and sat on the sofa, but my eyes unconsciously looked at the door.

If he catches up, how will she refuse?

If he asked her what her relationship was with Qiao Ancheng, how would she answer?

It's nothing to do with you, we're divorced!

Yes, to put it that way, she has nothing to fear!

As a result, I waited and waited, but I didn't hear a knock on the door, and it was silent outside.

While waiting, Xia Nianxi lay on the sofa and accidentally fell asleep, and when she woke up again, it was already the next morning.

Knock knock!

She sat up, rubbed her eyes, and looked out the window, it was already dawn.

Get up and walk to the door, open the doorβ€”
