Ning Lu looked at Xu Qiansheng, "Do you need to prepare?" ”

Xu Qiansheng waved his hand slightly, "No need, it's not the time yet, his vigilance is too strong, I want to find a suitable opportunity to defeat him in one fell swoop and leave no trouble." ”

Ning Lu's gaze at Xu Qiansheng this time was a little heavy, "Can you do it?" ”

"Or don't you regret it?"

The smile that Xu Qiansheng had been hanging on the corner of his mouth faded, and after a long time, he said in a deep voice, "I will never regret it." ”

Ning Lu patted Xu Qiansheng on the shoulder, Xu Qiansheng looked at Ning Lu and smiled.

At this time, the doorbell was ringed, and if you listen carefully, the doorbell is actually quite regular.

Ning Lu stood up, "I'll go open the door." ”

But at this time, Xu Qiansheng's face was full of gentle smiles, "I'll just go." ”

Then he stood up, straightened his suit, and walked to the door.

Xu Qiansheng walked to the door, opened the door directly, and saw a petite and lovely girl standing at the door, seeing him, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but then he was full of joy, "Brother Qiansheng, I thought it would be Aunt Xiu who came to open the door." ”

"Why are you home so early today, are you okay?"

Xu Qiansheng reached out and touched the girl's head, and then reached out to hold her hand, "Why are your hands so cold." ”

The girl looked at him and said with a smile, "With you, I won't be cold,"

"You haven't answered my question yet."

Xu Qiansheng smiled helplessly, "There are fewer things in the company today, so I'll come back first." ”

Ning Lu on the side looked at the two people who were tired of being nobody, and couldn't help coughing heavily.

When the girl saw Ning Lu, she immediately let go of Xu Qiansheng's hand and ran to Ning Lu, "Brother Ning Lu, why are you here?" ”

Ning Lu looked at the girl, "Can't I come?" ”

The girl smiled, "Of course you can come, it's not that you don't see people all the time on weekdays, and you were a little surprised to see me suddenly." ”

Ning Lu also smiled, "You, you, since you came here, I'm afraid you forgot about me a long time ago." ”

The girl sat next to Ning Road, "What's the matter, it's you, you didn't come for my birthday, and you didn't give me a birthday gift, you just forgot me." ”

Thinking about it like this, Ning Lu was really a little weak-hearted, he went on a mission during that time, and he really forgot.

The girl looked at Ning Lu's expression, "Look, I'll just say it, you must have forgotten, Brother Qiansheng also said that you were busy." ”

Ning Lu touched his nose, "I'll make it up to you when it's over." ”

"That's pretty much it."

Xu Qiansheng, who was hanging on the other side, looked at his empty hands, smiled helplessly, walked to the sofa, sat down, and quietly looked at the little girl who belonged to him.

After seeing that the two of them were almost talking, he said gently, "How are you at school today?" ”

The girl looked at Xu Qiansheng, "It's not bad, oh, by the way, our teacher said that he would take us out to collect wind in a few days." ”

Hearing this, Xu Qiansheng and Ning Lu paused without a trace, and Xu Qiansheng smiled, "Really?" ”

The girl didn't notice anything wrong, but simply expressed her excitement, "yes, yes, I haven't decided where to go yet, but I'm really looking forward to it, I haven't been out much in such a long time, and I run at school and home every day." ”

Xu Qiansheng touched the girl's head, "Since you want to go out, then prepare well." ”

Hearing this, the girl's eyes seemed to light up, "Can I go?" ”

Xu Qiansheng smiled, "Why not." ”

The girl stood up, "Then I'll go up and see if there's anything I need to prepare." ”

With that, the girl ran upstairs.

The girl who was immersed in excitement didn't notice the solemn look on Ning Lu's face behind her.

Waiting for the girl's figure to disappear at the corner of the stairs, Ning Lu frowned and looked at Xu Qiansheng, "Is it okay to let Xia Er go out like that, you know, the doctor also said that that hypnosis does not guarantee that she will not remember it at all." ”

"What if, I mean, what if something happens and Xia Er remembers?"

At this time, Xu Qiansheng's face also lost the warm spring breeze of the past, "I know." ”

"I know you let her go." Ning Lu was a little anxious.

"But it's been two years, and she's been living under our protection for the past two years, and this life is indeed stable, but after all, it's too dull and boring for her, isn't it?"

"But what if she goes back to her old state, do you want her to go through that pain again?"

Xu Qiansheng looked at Ning Lu, "Xia Er is very cheerful now, but I know that she is not as happy as we seem, she is only eighteen years old, I want her to enjoy the happiness of traveling with her classmates like everyone else." ”

Ning Lu's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but finally let go of his clenched fist and didn't say anything.

A somewhat solemn atmosphere spread between the two, and for a moment, there was some silence in the living room.

After a long time, Ning Lu raised his head, "No matter what, you have to protect her and don't let her get hurt." ”

"She has been rescued by so many of us from the smoke and flames of war, no matter what, you have to protect her and don't let her remember the past."

Xu Qiansheng looked at Ning Lu. "I know, I won't let anyone hurt Xia'er, not even me."

Ning Lu nodded, then stood up and looked at Xu Qiansheng, "Then I'll leave first, and you can help me say hello to Xia Er when you come down in a while, just say that I have left in advance, and bring the gift to her next time." ”

Xu Qiansheng looked at Ning Lu, "Okay." ”

After saying that, Ning Lu left.

Xu Qiansheng looked at Ning Lu's back, then looked upstairs, and finally didn't say anything.

When Xia Er was first sent by Ning Lu, she was still very scared of life, she liked to stay alone in a small corner, so that no one could find her.

At that time, he couldn't find her at home, and every time he found her, she curled up tightly, curling herself into a small ball.

Psychologists say it's a sign of extreme insecurity.

Later, he told her that there was no need to hide here, and that this would be her home from now on.

It was the first time she had reacted other than silence, and she looked at him with fear in her eyes, "I don't want home, I don't want home." “

He didn't know what was wrong, and the psychiatrist said, "Perhaps her home had caused her indelible damage, making her almost instinctively sensitive and frightened by the word home." ”

She was a poor child, he thought, too, when he was sixteen and she was twelve.

They were both cautiously testing each other, wanting to touch the warmth, but they were afraid of being burned.
