Chapter Twenty-Five: Like an Old Man of Mine
Lin Xi couldn't help but say, went to find the medicine box, brought a basin of hot water, and took off his shirt directly when he came back.
Even if she didn't look at him, Lin Xi could feel his complicated gaze, which made her scalp tingle for a while.
What a feudal idea this is! Isn't it just an upper body? It's not the lower body, as for being so nervous? The atmosphere is so solemn at the moment. Thinking like this, could it be that a girl in this era was delivered by a male doctor and went directly to jump into the lake?
I don't understand......
Also, Qin Jingqian, don't think that you are an innocent teenager, okay! Your romantic history is better than my Lin Xi! I have never been looked at by a woman, inexplicable......
Qin Jingqian's upper body had many large and small scars, and Lin Xi couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it, isn't this person in business? Why do you make it look like a soldier, this injury looks like it accumulates over time.
I remember that when I was still in the Gu family, Lin Xi had also seen Gu Chengxuan's back, but there were a lot of injuries, but at that time, the young man in the second middle school only said that he was called a man if he had scars, and he became a sissy in vain......
Looking at Qin Jingqian, a noble son, who also had so many unknown scars, Lin Xi only felt that she was still too young, and she didn't know enough about their lives.
In fact, Lin Xi also knew that these things couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong, Qin Jingqian was not innocent, and others were not so innocent, if the Lin family didn't have Qin Jingqian, they would definitely not have such a high status in Liangcheng.
"Ahem, I've learned a truth in the past few years." Lin Xi said.
"What's the truth?"
"It's not easy to be born as a human being." Lin Xi sighed heavily.
Qin Jingqian couldn't help but chuckle, "What do you mean by this?" โ
"Just like me, I can still live here comfortably at this time, stretch out my hands for clothes, open my mouth for food, for some people, I don't dare to dream like this."
The current situation is not at all like before she studied abroad four years ago, Lin Xi is very glad to have left the protection of the Gu family, she still has the support of the Lin family, thinking of the little Jiujiu in her heart, Lin Xi's eyes deepened, and she looked at Qin Jingqian's gaze with some sympathy: "You are still struggling to support it, you should be very tired, right?" โ
Qin Jingqian didn't answer, he looked at Lin Xi's eyes gradually became deeper, and after a long time, he asked nonsensically: "Xiaoxi, have you always lived in the deep city in the past?" โ
Lin Xi paused, not quite understanding the meaning of Qin Jingqian's words, for fear that he had some other purpose, so he asked vaguely, "What's wrong?" โ
"Nothing." Qin Jingqian smiled lightly, as if he said casually, "I just think that you are very much like an old friend of mine." โ
Qin Jingqian's words made Lin Xi's body stiffen, her pupils constricted, and she elongated her voice and said in surprise: "No...... Can't it, coincidence too? โ
She hurriedly brainstormed, and she didn't remember when she had met Qin Jingqian, thinking that it shouldn't be her business.
Qin Jingqian paused, his eyes unconsciously softened a lot, "Maybe, but it's really similar." At first, I didn't think so, but the more I looked at you, the more I looked like you. โ
"She's a girl, too?" Lin Xi asked this sentence very thoughtlessly, of course, she regretted it after asking, this question was too brainless.
Qin Jingqian didn't smile, he only nodded silently, "Yes." โ
Ooh! Can't you see that a ruthless character like Qin Jingqian still has a heroic and short-tempered side? Lin Xi secretly marveled in his heart at what kind of abrasive goblin would have such a method.
"Actually, it's not an old friend, maybe she has forgotten me a long time ago, I'm just a passerby in her life." When Qin Jingqian said this, there was a deep loneliness in his tone, "Sometimes, you try hard to know and remember someone, but in the gears of fate, she is destined to be just the one who passes by you." โ
"You can see that she is important to you." Lin Xi muttered.
"She's a twist in my fate." Qin Jingqian finished speaking deeply, as if he was deeply touched, he didn't want to say anything more to Lin Xi, so he stood up and said, "You should rest early." โ
"Hmm." Lin Xi was really relieved after watching Qin Jingqian really leave.
How could there be so many thrilling things on this night......
โโ
Looking in the mirror, he clearly saw that his shoulders were still red and swollen after being treated, and Qin Jingqian's eyes were as deep as a wolf, revealing danger.
Lying on the bed, Qin Jingqian inadvertently caught a glimpse of the sleeping pill that he had received from Lin Xi the day before yesterday on the bedside table, and thought of the conversation with Lin Xi just now, and couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts in his heart.
He sat up from the bed and took out a delicate sandalwood box from a drawer, and inside the box, a necklace with a wishing bottle pendant.
The wishing bottle is small, with blue diamonds inside, emitting a faint blue cold light in the dark night, and although many years have passed, this necklace is still the same as it was back then.
Qin Jingqian carefully rubbed the wishing bottle, his eyes full of tenderness.
Good luck.
All the good luck, I just hope to meet you again.
"Bell bell bellโ"
The sound of the phone remembered, pulling Qin Jingqian back to reality from his contemplation, and he slowly put the box away, and then answered the phone with cold eyes.
"How's it going?"
The scarface on the other side said to Qin Jingqian truthfully: "Because Miss Lin Xi and Gu Chengxuan are together today, we have to startle the snake and let Gu Chengxuan find the bomb." โ
"What did you just say?" Qin Jingqian's sharp eyes narrowed, and his voice was low: "Lin Xi is with him?" โ
"Yes."
Qin Jingqian couldn't tell how he felt at the moment, he never thought that it was just a person he had met, how could Lin Xi be so special to that person.
"Gu Chengxuan, how can he be everywhere!" Qin Jingqian almost gritted his teeth and said this sentence.
Scarface only felt a little inexplicable when he heard Qin Jingqian's words, under normal circumstances, shouldn't he think that Lin Xi was in the way? If there was no Lin Xi today, he Gu Chengxuan would have to suffer a skin injury no matter what he said.
"Jing Shao?" There was no response for a long time, and Scarface called Qin Jingqian tentatively.
"Okay, I got it." Qin Jingqian said faintly, and finally warned: "Take care of your mouth." โ
"Don't worry, Jing Shao, there won't be anyone today-"
Before Scarface could finish speaking, Qin Jingqian had already hung up the phone with a "snap-" sound.
Scarface listened to the mechanical beep, and felt inexplicable in his heart, the only explanation was that it seemed that Jing Shao was really not in a good mood tonight.
