Chapter 165: Caged Bird
Hua Tao wanted to be discharged from the hospital, but the doctor resolutely refused to allow it, not only was she not allowed to be discharged, but she was also forbidden to get out of bed and walk around.
Xia Sheng asked her if the wound was painful, she touched her chest through the patient's gown, thought for a moment and said, "A little." ”
"Then you must be a person with a strong ability to endure pain." Xia Sheng said, "You suffered a gunshot wound, the bullet ran through the chest from the back, although it did not hurt the nerves, but the body pierced a small hole, to grow all the flesh back, you think about how long it will take." ”
Hua Tao looked down at her chest, she didn't feel how serious the injury was, and she didn't know if her pain nerves were particularly dull.
As each day wore on, she felt a little isolated.
Because Xia Sheng not only did not agree with her discharge, but also did not agree to her transfer to the hospital in China to recuperate.
And for good reason, the medical equipment and doctors here are of a higher level of technology than in China, and you can get more comprehensive treatment here.
Hua Tao is irrefutable.
Moreover, all her current expenses are paid by this handsome guy with green eyes, and those who don't pay have no right to speak.
Hua Tao's English is actually good, and she can't really find someone to talk to, but she wants more than just chatting, she wants to meet familiar relatives and friends.
Xia Sheng didn't seem to intend to let her get her wish.
"It's enough for you to have me by your side, and I'll help you slowly remember the past." So says the big handsome guy with green eyes.
Hua Tao just wanted to roll her eyes when she heard this.
Although he takes good care of her, and she is grateful to him, it doesn't mean that she has to make him her the only one.
Hua Tao was bored in the ward for half a month, because the doctor said that she couldn't get out of bed yet, so she could only look at the outside world through the window.
"Sometimes I feel like I'm a caged bird." Hua Tao leaned her head against the glass window, her expression laughing at herself.
Xia Sheng sat on the edge of the hospital bed and peeled apples for her, and when he heard her words, he raised his head in amazement.
Hua Tao also glanced over, with no expression on her face, but a pair of black painted apricot eyes were resentful.
Xia Sheng didn't speak, lowered his head and cut the apple in half, cut it into thin slices after removing the core, and then used a toothpick to penetrate it, and then separated the thin slices piece by piece, showing the appearance of flowers in an instant.
He put it on a plate and handed it to Peach.
"It's beautiful, thank you." Hua Tao took it, admired it three hundred and sixty-five degrees, and praised it lazily.
When Xia Sheng carved a little rabbit out of an apple for her for the first time, she was pleasantly surprised, and the next day Xia Sheng carved a bear out of an apple for her.
Now, even if Xia Sheng carves a dragon out of apples, she is used to seeing it.
"I know you're bored in the hospital, but your injuries aren't healed yet, and you can't go down to the ground yet." Xia Sheng's expression was a little sad, as if he was the one who couldn't go to the ground.
Hua Tao casually put aside the flower carved from the apple, covered her mouth and yawned.
"It's a rhetoric that comes and goes." She raised her hand and pressed the wound on her chest.
Xia Sheng told her the origin of this injury, which was thrilling and touching, and it was a romantic and thrilling love story.
It's a pity that she really can't take on the role of the heroine and play such a lingering love scene with the male protagonist.
Xia Sheng glanced at his carefully carved apple blossom and asked with a smile, "Don't you eat a little?" ”
Hua Tao shook her head and said, "Tired." ”
"Then I'll take you for a walk in the courtyard below." Xia Sheng proposed.
Hua Tao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Really?" She will be skeptical.
Xia Sheng saw that she was happy, and took the opportunity to touch her head, but she really didn't dodge.
successfully took advantage, and Xia Sheng was also happy.
He asked the nurse for a wheelchair, pushed it to the side of the bed, and gestured to hold her.
"No, I, I'll ...... it myself" Hua Tao hurriedly refused.
Xia Sheng looked at her for a long time and smiled and asked, "Why do you want to come by yourself?" ”
Hua Tao stared at him warily, reached for the wheelchair, and tentatively moved her ass off the bed.
Xia Sheng watched from the side and sighed: "Be careful of falling." ”
Before the words fell, Hua Tao's center of gravity was unstable and she fell to the ground with her wheelchair.
"Ahh She screamed.
Before the scream fell, a pair of big hands fell on her waist and forcefully scooped her up.
She fell into a warm embrace.
The warm mint smell came to her face, making her feel grounded unconsciously.
The body relaxed as if instinctively, and the arms were dominated by the brain, hugging each other's necks tightly.
Xia Sheng took advantage of the danger, kissed her hair, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid." The tone was as gentle as a child's.
Hua Tao came back to her senses and found that her loose patient gown was already messy in the middle of the noble son's fishing, and the collar slipped to the shoulder, revealing a large area of snow-white skin.
Her cheeks burned suddenly, and she hurriedly pushed the person away before she could stand on her heels.
Xia Sheng looked at her calmly, no matter how hard she tried, she didn't move.
"Let it go." She raised her eyes and glared at him, a little lacking in confidence, after all, the handsome guy came to the rescue just now.
Xia Sheng smiled and said, "If you are good, I will let it go." ”
Hua Tao blinked, not knowing how to call it "I'm good".
In the next second, her whole body was picked up in the air.
"Wow!" The sudden weightlessness made her scream.
Xia Sheng picked her up horizontally, put her on the bed, and then picked up the wheelchair that was turned on the ground, and looked at it again, with a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.
This time, Hua Tao knew what he wanted to do.
Xia Sheng asked with a smile, "Still don't you need my help?" You see it's not early, and the nurse won't let you go out again when it gets dark. ”
Hua Tao pouted and said, "It's a big deal, I'll have some dinner." ”
Xia Sheng sighed twice and said with a smile: "It's not a matter of dinner, but after the sun goes down, the big bad wolf will come out, and a delicious Little Red Riding Hood like you is not suitable for staying outside." ”
Hua Tao thought to herself, where is the need for the sun to go down, isn't there a big bad wolf standing in front of her.
Although this big bad wolf is a little too handsome, many Little Red Riding Hoods are scrambling to get him to eat it in one bite.
"Can you please call the nurse in for me to come in and help?" Hua Tao glanced at him.
When the handsome man with green eyes heard this, a trace of sadness appeared on his face: "You are so unwilling to let me help?" ”
Hua Tao couldn't really say it no matter how unhappy she was, so she had to smile and say: "Men and women don't kiss." ”
Xia Sheng was even more sad.
"I'm your boyfriend, not an irrelevant stranger."
Hua Tao felt a little headache.
Xia Sheng told her this sentence many times, and kept emphasizing how they loved each other before, and the degree of affection has reached the point where it is intolerable.
It's not that Hua Tao doesn't believe his words, but ......
She really couldn't remember anything about it.
Not only do I have no memory, but I also don't feel it.
In fact, she herself wondered, Xia Sheng's appearance is definitely the type she likes, no, it should be said that Xia Sheng is the ideal lover that most girls dream of, and it is really too easy to fall in love with him.
Handsome, considerate, has a sense of humor, and is generous.
Hua Tao couldn't find fault with him if she wanted to.
However, it is still the same old saying, and I don't feel it.
There is no feeling of love, only heartfelt appreciation for handsome guys.
To her, Xia Sheng is more like David under Michelangelo's carving knife, she will admire, admire, and indulge in him, but she will not like living human beings.
Don't ask her why she can't see the big handsome guy with green eyes as a living human being, she doesn't know herself.
Xia Sheng looked at Hua Tao for a long time, but the other party didn't look at him, avoiding his gaze, and his expression was very helpless.
"I see." He said.
The eyelashes drooped slightly, blocking out the sadness that flowed in the green eyes.
Hua Tao breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, although she seemed to be a little sorry for him, she really didn't want to have any skin-to-skin relationship with him anymore.
He made her uncomfortable.
After Xia Sheng finished saying "I understand", he walked over, held her shoulder with one hand, put the other hand under her knee, and hugged her horizontally again.
Hua Tao was shocked.
"Y-What are you doing?!"
Xia Sheng kicked the wheelchair over and strode out of the ward.
Hua Tao felt like a chick that had been caught by an eagle, and she had no power to resist.
"What's the matter with you? Where are you taking me?! Hua Tao struggled desperately.
"Don't move, be good, or I won't be able to hold you, and you don't want to fall, right?" The low and sexy voice is gentle and affectionate, but at this moment, when Hua Tao hears it, it only feels harsh.
This is a threat to the red fruit.
Xia Sheng carried her out of the ward, got off the elevator, and walked downstairs to the courtyard.
Along the way, many nurses and doctors passed by them, and they all gave her smiling eyes.
Laugh at your sister!
Hua Tao held her anger and couldn't vent, only feeling both annoyed and embarrassed.
"Since you don't like me anyway, I'll make you hate me a little more. At least that way, you'll be more impressed with me. Xia Sheng finally put her down and let her sit on a bench.
Behind the chair is a tall banyan tree, blocking out part of the late autumn afternoon sun.
Hua Tao turned her head to look at him, remembering what he said in the hospital room, I understand.
I thought he understood something, but I didn't expect to come up with such a trick that is difficult for a strong man.
Hua Tao thinks he succeeded, and she really hates him.
He is a person who does not know how to respect others, and is very self-righteous.
When Xia Sheng teased her again, she simply stopped talking.
There's nothing to talk about with such people anymore.
Xia Sheng behaved very sadly, his pale green eyes revealed sadness, like the mountains and forests after the rain, shrouded in a layer of mist, as if raindrops would fall at any time.
Xia Sheng stopped talking later, and they sat quietly like this, watching the sun move westward little by little, watching the clouds in the sky surging and surging in the sky.
The autumn light is so beautiful that it makes people's hearts suffocate, and the mottled light and shadow that fall on the clothes through the gaps in the branches and leaves are always impossible to grasp.
When it was completely dark, there was no one else in the courtyard, and everyone went to the dining hall to eat, and the smell of toast and fried steak seemed to waft through the air.
Xia Sheng turned his head to look at her and asked, "Hua Xiaozhu, do you hate me now?" ”
Hua Tao looked at him vigilantly and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”
Xia Sheng laughed.
Her flower piggy is too perceptive, too smart.
He really wanted to do something bad so that she could have him in her heart.
Xia Sheng pressed Hua Tao on the chair and kissed it strongly.
