There was a long silence in the ward, Bai He's gaze fell below, and Zhu Dongfeng's gaze fell on her face.

I don't know how long later, the nurse came to take Zhu Dongfeng's temperature, Bai He had a little reaction, and when the nurse took the temperature and asked a few words about Zhu Dongfeng's physical discomfort, Bai He thought that she should also go, Bai Yuewei was still waiting for her.

But she didn't say anything to Zhu Dongfeng.

"I ......"

"I missed the appointment that day, I'm sorry." Zhu Dongfeng said suddenly.

Bai He swallowed the words he was going to leave back into his stomach, lifted his eyes and looked at him, his eyes were deep, his eyes were focused and serious, "I thought I could come as promised, I didn't think I wouldn't come back." ”

“…… I thought you would come too. ”

"You should have waited a long time."

Bai He didn't speak for a while, she wondered if she would tell him truthfully that she had waited for him in the western restaurant for eight hours, which was a very long eight hours, and the most chaotic mental activity in her life was in those eight hours. And after that, she walked home in the rain ridiculously hard, and as a result, she had a high fever.

At that time, I couldn't tell the bitterness and pain in my heart, thinking that I was being teased, thinking that I was being ridiculed, but in the end I found out that the other party did not deliberately break the appointment, it was a reason why he had to come, a very urgent reason.

In this way, the torment and pain that Bai He endured seemed to be not worth mentioning.

Bai He blinked his eyes and said lightly: "When the time comes, I think you may not come if you don't show up, so I didn't wait too long." ”

Zhu Dongfeng smiled slightly: "Didn't we say that we would see each other and not disperse?" He said lightly: "It is with this belief that I can come back alive." ”

I can't tell what it feels like in my heart, it's like being pricked with a needle, and it hurts.

Bai He didn't dare to speak, she was afraid that she would choke up as soon as she opened her mouth.

She tilted her head and touched her earlobe casually, cleared her throat and asked, "How did you get into an accident at sea?" She regretted it a little after asking, this should not be the question she asked.

"Nothing, just an accident." Zhu Dongfeng said with a smile. He also thought that Bai He didn't know that he had been stabbed, and only said that the weather was not predicted that day, and the wind and rain at sea exceeded the estimate to cause the accident.

Bai He just nodded when he heard him say this, and Zhu Dongfeng asked, "You said that you had something to say to me face to face that day, what was the matter?" ”

"It's fine." His body was still very weak, and Bai He couldn't figure out whether to tell him at this time.

Zhu Dongfeng looked at her expression, "The matter is settled?" ”

Probably thinking that Bai He was in some trouble and wanted to find him, Bai He shook his head and said I don't have anything to solve, I just want to tell you something.

"What's the matter?" Zhu Dongfeng asked again.

Bai He looked at him, thought for a while, and said, "Very important thing. But I don't want to tell you about it yet. ”

Zhu Dongfeng frowned.

"I'll tell you when you're discharged." Bai He stood up, "Now I'm leaving, Yuewei is still waiting for me." ”

"Bai He, you're hanging my appetite."

Bai He ignored it and walked straight to the door, she glanced back at Zhu Dongfeng and said, "Take care of your illness, I will definitely not come back empty-handed next time." ”

Next time?

Zhu Dongfeng pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed silently.

Bai He got into the car, Bai Yuewei asked her about Zhu Dongfeng's situation, and after hearing that it seemed to be fine, she nodded, "The third aunt said that this kind of person has gold in his life, and he will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune, which is really true." ”

"How are you?" Bai He asked her.

Bai Yuewei looked at her and wondered, "Me? What how? ”

"The feeling of seeing Zhu Senshan."

"I don't feel anything anymore. It's not the same as before. "I used to look at Zhu Senshan full of joy, love, and worship, and the idea of wanting to hold him and get close to him couldn't be suppressed. And now when I look at him again, I don't even feel any other than blandness, not even hatred.

"I was nervous at first, but when I actually met, I realized that it wasn't a big deal." Even when she was sitting in the car waiting for Bai Lotus just now, Bai Yuewei kept thinking, why did she fall in love with Zhu Senshan in the first place? She found that she had forgotten and could not remember at all.

Bai He agreed with her, "A lot of times we scare ourselves, but in fact, the matter itself couldn't be simpler. "Bai Yuewei is like this, and so is Bai He.

After seeing Zhu Dongfeng on this day, Bai He hadn't been to Zhongshan Hospital for two days, first, she had put her mind at ease, and second, she felt that it was not good to go too hard. As for why it's not good, she can't say why.

On the third day, Bai He and Zhizhi both got up early, and the chicken soup that had been stewed the night before was now just right, and the aroma was overflowing. Then she took some snacks she made and put them in her cloth pocket, Bai He didn't know if Zhu Dongfeng could eat these now, and if she said that she couldn't eat them, she would give them to others, in short, Bai He's mind was delivered.

Bai He went alone in a rickshaw, and when she was about to walk to Zhu Dongfeng's ward, the people who were guarding the corridor saw her get out of the way, Bai He stopped at her feet and walked over calmly.

There are two people in the ward, Zhu Dongfeng and Zhu Xing, Zhu Dongfeng is wearing glasses and reading a letter, and Zhu Xing is peeling apples.

After a little hesitation, Bai He knocked lightly on the door, and when both of them looked over, she pushed the door and entered, "Keep your promise, I didn't come empty-handed this time." ”

"Don't think too much, it's good when people come." Zhu Dongfeng smiled slightly, glanced at Zhu Xing, Zhu Xing put down the apple and stepped forward to take the thing.

"I know the chicken soup that I stewed all night and the snacks she made. Can you eat these things? ”

Zhu Dongfeng said: "Yes." ”

Bai He looked at Zhu Xing, "Then let Zhu Xing ......"

"It's time for me to go see Anan." Zhu Xing said coldly, she glanced at Zhu Dongfeng: "Sir, you don't need me here, right?" ”

"There you go."

"Okay, then I'll go. Send someone to call me for something. Zhu Xing didn't look at Bai He, lowered his head and walked out of the ward quickly, Bai He's fingers were raised, and he put them down in vain.

She looked back at Zhu Dongfeng and saw that he had taken off his glasses, leaning over and twisting the lid of the thermos pot with one hand, obviously unable to unscrew it, how to say it? It looks a little embarrassing.

"I'll do it." Bai He pushed his hand away, the thermos pot was bought yesterday, and the aroma of the chicken soup suddenly gushed out as soon as the lid was unscrewed.

After pouring a small bowl out, Bai He took out the spoon, and after hesitating for a moment, she still chose to feed Zhu Dongfeng to drink, after all, he only had one hand that could move freely.

In the chicken soup, there is a little Sichuan Qiong Angelica Gastrodia, a ginseng, and no other seasonings are added except salt, and the taste is very delicious.

Although Zhu Dongfeng had already had a little breakfast in the morning, he still drank two bowls with Bai He's hands, and praised Zhizhi's craftsmanship by the way.

Bai He asked him if he wanted to taste the dim sum again?

Zhu Dongfeng pinched a piece and put it in his mouth, saying that it was just to his taste, not too sweet, and it must be very good with coffee.

"I know that the dim sum I make is not too sweet."

"Because she knows you don't like sweetness."

Bai He nodded, cleaned up the table, and didn't know what to say, so he asked him how he was recovering? When will I be discharged from the hospital?

"It's coming." Zhu Dongfeng gave a vague answer, as if even he himself was not sure when he would be discharged from the hospital.

Bai He frowned and wanted to ask again, but Zhu Dongfeng had already asked her first, "You have been very busy these two days?" ”

"Huh? Not busy. ”

"Oh." Zhu Dongfeng responded lightly, and said with a smile: "You didn't come in the past two days, I thought you were very busy." ”

Bai He was stunned for a moment, glanced at him, and was inexplicably a little weak-hearted. Zero Long Literature Network

After a while she whispered, "I can't come every day." ”

Zhu Dongfeng asked, "Why can't you?" ”

"We ......" Bai He didn't say it too thoroughly, and she was also thinking, when she was sick and hospitalized before, she didn't see Zhu Dongfeng go to the hospital to see her every day, why did she have to come to the hospital to see him every day after the role was reversed? Sure enough, men will only blindly hold others to high standards.

She sat on the stool and picked up Zhu Xing's half-peeled apple, "Now that so many people are watching your movements every day, I'm afraid that I come too diligently and will cause unnecessary trouble." I don't want that. ”

"There won't be any trouble." Zhu Dongfeng said, "Didn't you find that no newspaper has reported on me until today?"

Bai He didn't subscribe to the newspaper after she moved out, and she would only buy a copy when she remembered it, so she really didn't find out what Zhu Dongfeng said. But even if this is the case, "not reporting does not mean not spreading." Bai He glanced at Zhu Dongfeng, "The speed of the spread of the mouth of the people is more than dozens of times faster than that of the newspaper." ”

She handed him the peeled apple, but Zhu Dongfeng said that he couldn't eat it and let Bai He eat it.

Bai Lotus had to put the apples in the fruit bowl again.

Zhu Dongfeng looked at the beautifully peeled apple, and said, "Are you afraid that they will misunderstand you and me and rekindle the old relationship?" ”

"I'm afraid they'll misunderstand that you're in the hospital because of me." Bai He began to talk nonsense again.

Zhu Dongfeng said: "So you're not afraid that they will misunderstand you and me and rekindle the old relationship?" ”

"I ......" Bai Lotus was plugged in!

Seeing her speechless expression with her mouth open, Zhu Dongfeng laughed twice, "I'm joking with you, if it's not funny, you don't care." Whether it's a revival of old feelings, of course they said it doesn't matter. ”

So who has the final say?

Bai He didn't ask, but she was a little happy in her heart, but when she thought that she still hadn't told him, she couldn't be happy.

"What's wrong?" Obviously, he could feel the emotional gap in Bai He, and Zhu Dongfeng looked at her.

"Nothing."

Although Zhu Dongfeng is sick, his eyes are as vicious as ever, if he can't even see Bai He's careful thoughts, it will be in vain that he has been running a business outside for so many years.

"Bai He, if you really have something to tell me, just say it directly, don't think nonsense alone. If you are afraid that I will not be able to bear what you say, then you can rest assured that there is nothing in this world that I cannot bear. Except that you want to get married, and it's not something I can't afford, it's that I won't agree. ”

Why did you suddenly get married again?

Bai He hesitated: "Who said I was going to get married?" ”

"Oh, I'm just giving you an example." Zhu Dongfeng said indifferently.

…… Then you're really going to pick an example.

Bai He licked his lips and said that what you said can't be compared with the thing I want to say, their nature is different, maybe you can accept other things, but you may not be able to accept this matter. And......

After a pause, Bai He looked at him and said, "And even I don't know much about this matter, I can't explain it to you completely and clearly, and I may not be able to answer some of your doubts." ”

Zhu Dongfeng sorted out the letters spread on the quilt with one hand, and asked casually, "Is it a bad thing?" ”

"No......" Bai He reflexively shook his head first, thought about it seriously and said, "It's hard to define this thing in terms of 'good' or 'bad', whether it's for me or for you. ”

"Really?" Zhu Dongfeng glanced at her steadily, "It's hard for me to guess what kind of thing it will be, so you better say it directly." ”

Bai He hesitated: "I ......"

Zhu Dongfeng chuckled: "Bai He, don't hang my appetite anymore." The quality of my sleep was not good. ”

"Your sleep quality won't get any better."

"But it's not getting any worse." Zhu Dongfeng put the sorted letter next to his pillow and said that you have to tell me sooner or later anyway, right? I'm in the hospital now, and even if I can't bear it, nothing will happen.

Zhu Dongfeng thought that Bai He was frightened by his disappearance for more than half a month, so he had a misunderstanding of his psychological endurance, if it was the same as before, Bai He would have said something a long time ago, where would he be like now.

But Bai He's like this just shows that she still has herself in her heart, which is not bad.

Zhu Dongfeng looked at her with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and didn't say anything more, just quietly waited for her to speak.

Bai He picked her fingers and struggled for a long time, and then as if she had thought about it, she said, "Do you remember why we broke up in the first place?" I know you remember, but we probably won't forget. Because I thought you had ordered your people to set fire to my house, which caused my mother to die in that fire. ”

Zhu Dongfeng's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this, he seemed to know what Bai He was going to say.

"But that's just what I thought, but it's not. Can you believe it? I learned some time ago that the fire had nothing to do with you and your people, and you and I took it for granted. But that's not the case. ”

"How do you know?" Zhu Dongfeng asked in a deep voice.

Bai He looked into his eyes, "Because someone told me that she witnessed who set the fire back then." ”

Zhu Dongfeng nodded silently, he was very calm, and his expression did not have a trace of waves.

Bai He sat quietly for a moment and said suddenly, "You already know this fact, right?" You already knew? Or did you know it from the beginning? ”

"I was a little earlier than you know, but not as early as you think." Zhu Dongfeng sent Anan to contact and find the debt collectors involved in the incident back then, several people had a detailed conversation together, the incident has only been more than three years and less than four years, for them many small things may be blurred, but some key things no one will forget, after all, they also made the world run all over the world because of this incident.

In their memory, there were indeed two people who shouted to set fire to the house to drive people to hand over the house, but it was just a verbal threat, and no one took action, one was that they thought that Bai Zhengting was timid and afraid of things and didn't need to go through a lot of trouble; The second is that igniting the house is uncontrollable, which will cause big trouble. They are all old oilers who have been out for many years, and the stakes are clearly distinguished, so in the final analysis, no matter how ruthless they are, they didn't do anything else except beat a few people.

Anan asked them to think clearly, and they all swore to Zhu Dongfeng that the fire had nothing to do with them. Of course, they didn't know until now that it had nothing to do with them, and when they first had an accident, they thought it was put by their companions, and they were busy running for their lives before they could say it clearly.

If they didn't set the fire, who did it come from?

At that time, only the few who went to collect debts and the Bai family were present, and there were also people watching the excitement outside the door, but the fire was burned from the kitchen, so it could not be done by outsiders, it would only be the Bai family's own people. But at that time, there were arguments and physical altercations between the two sides, and the scene was chaotic, and no one noticed who went to the kitchen.

Zhu Dongfeng listened to them recount the scene several times, and had a little choice in his heart, but he had no direct evidence to show who was the one who set the fire, and no matter who it was, it hurt Bai He a lot, after all, it was her family, so he finally chose to give up the verification.

It's just that he didn't expect that now Bai He has learned the truth from others.

"So you're afraid I won't be able to accept this?" Zhu Dongfeng asked her with a smile, and his mood was very peaceful.

Bai He didn't answer directly, but said: "No one likes to carry a black pot, does it?" And because of this, Bai He broke up with him, and said so many excessive things to him, if she changed Bai He, she couldn't accept it. But why does Zhu Dongfeng seem so worthless?

Zhu Dongfeng asked, "Do you know who set the fire?" That person told you? ”

"Nope. She wouldn't say. Do you know? ”

"I don't know." Zhu Dongfeng shook his head.

Bai He whispered, "Then can you help me check?" I asked Li Yan to help me transfer the case information, but there was no clue. I wonder who set the fire. ”

"Why do you have to know?"

"Of course I know, he killed my mother!"

"So what are you going to do when you know that? Kill him and let him pay for his life? What if that person is someone from the Bai family? ”

Kill him for your life?

That was too difficult for Bai He.

"I just want him to confess his crime, and I want him to go to my mother's grave and kowtow and confess his mistakes. He's been living unbridled and happy under my nose for almost four years, and I won't allow it to go on like this. Bai He gritted his teeth.

Zhu Dongfeng looked at her expression and sighed in his heart, "Bai He, I can't help you find out about this matter, it's not that there is no way, it can't be found." The memories of those people under my command are blurred, they can't ask anything, and there is no other way to check it. If you want to check your family, it's more convenient for me to check it yourself. ”
