Volume 2, The Surging Ocean Chapter 46, Horse Racing
Time flies, and it's winter again. In the past few days, Tingting has come back late every day for some reason, and she is always sweating profusely when she comes back, as if she has fallen into soup.
Liu Sicheng cared about Tingting, so he took the initiative to ask her about it.
So in the evening, in front of Yu Tingting's door, he blocked Tingting, who had just returned.
Tingting squinted her eyes and asked suspiciously:
"Looking for me?"
Liu Sicheng deliberately said with an exaggerated expression:
"Tingting, you shouldn't have fallen into the water, right?"
"How is this possible, and why are you asking so much?" Tingting tilted her head, her eyes and eyebrows wrinkled.
"Since you didn't fall into the water, why did you sweat your clothes?" Liu Sicheng looked up and down and asked.
Tingting listened, crossed her hands on her hips, and asked in a weird manner:
"May I ask you are a government official?"
Liu Sicheng couldn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Tingting's gourd, so he immediately replied:
"Naturally not, why do you ask such a question?"
I saw the corners of Tingting's mouth raised, and then complained with a displeased face:
"The tone of your questioning just now seems to be interrogating the prisoner!"
Hearing this, Liu Sicheng hurriedly changed to a soft tone and asked again:
"Why are you sweaty?"
Tingting glanced at Liu Sicheng and snorted coldly:
"Wouldn't you add the word 'please'? I really don't know how to count etiquette! ”
"Good, good." Liu Sicheng had no choice but to accommodate her, and then asked again, "Please tell me, why are you sweating your clothes, okay?" ”
Is that the tone of inquiry? It's not enough to be soft, it's a little pleading. Tingting pursed her lips and vigorously stirred up.
Rao is Liu Sicheng, who has always been obedient, was also on fire in his heart at this time, so he asked sharply:
"Do you say it or not?"
Tingting didn't care at all, only to see her lightly spit out her fragrant tongue, make a grimace, and laugh in her mouth:
"I'm angry, the more you want to know, the more I don't want to say it!"
Liu Sicheng really had no way to deal with the eccentric Tingting, so he had to change his tactics and get off the donkey with one move. I saw him purse his lips and ask rhetorically:
"What if I don't want to know right now?"
"Very good. Since you don't want to know, I don't have to say it. Tingting laughed.
In the face of Tingting's nonsense, Liu Sicheng really couldn't cry or laugh, he had to beg:
"Tingting! Shall I beg you? ”
Hearing this, Tingting crossed her hands on her hips and reprimanded in a tone of lesson:
"Do you know how rude it is to ask a girl about her private affairs?"
"Tingting, don't make excuses, okay? How can you answer truthfully? Liu Sicheng asked.
"Give me a reason you want to know, and I'll decide whether to say it or not." Tingting took the initiative to make a condition, with a sly smile on her face.
"It's because ......," Liu Sicheng paused, "because I care about you!" ”
"Care about me?" Tingting squinted her eyes and elongated her tone, looking incredulous.
"Yes, you've been sweating all day lately, and you're very susceptible to colds and colds. I care about you, and I ask you. Liu Sicheng explained to her in a calm tone as much as possible.
"Really?" Tingting looked suspicious.
Liu Sicheng nodded in affirmation.
At this moment, Tingting inadvertently crossed a smile on her face, and then put on a pretentious appearance and asked Liu Sicheng:
"If you really care about me, doesn't that mean you're a good person?"
Liu Sicheng, who didn't know what to do, replied without thinking too much:
"It's nature. Do you know I'm a good person right now? ”
"If a good person is a good person, he must value the feelings of others, yes or no?" Tingting asked.
"That's right." Liu Sicheng replied.
"If you are a good person, you will not hurt others, yes or no?" Tingting asked again.
Liu Sicheng snorted.
"So does dishonesty count as hurting others?" Tingting further set up.
Liu Sicheng nodded.
"So who is it who promised to cook for me, and so far has not done anything? Good guy Liu Sicheng! Tingting deliberately pronounced the word "good person" very seriously.
It turned out that Tingting went around in a big circle, in order to blame Liu Sicheng for breaking his promise.
Liu Sicheng was reminded of this before he remembered his previous promise to Tingting. It turned out that the last time Tingting enlightened him, as a thank you, Liu Sicheng promised her to treat her to a meal cooked by herself. But I've been busy lately, so I put this matter behind me, and I didn't expect Tingting to be so angry.
"You scoundrel, untrustworthy scoundrel!" Tingting was unforgiving, and said coquettishly.
"Tingting, calm down, I'll make it for you right now, okay?" Liu Sicheng knew that he was at a loss, and hurriedly reassured.
"Don't you need compensation for losing your trust?" Tingting asked rhetorically.
"Then I'll do it again, will it?" Liu Sicheng said soothingly.
"Are you supposed to be calling Hanako?" Tingting screamed, staring at Liu Sicheng with both eyes, looking domineering.
Facing Tingting's fierce sword-like eyes, Liu Sicheng instantly weakened by half in momentum, and had to ask cautiously:
"That'...... So how do you say to compensate ......?"
Tingting smiled slyly and showed her hole cards.
"Do it at least twice."
Liu Sicheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly agreed, for fear that Tingting would change her mind.
"Also, I'll pick the dishes." Tingting added, "I want to drink local chicken soup!" ”
Liu Sicheng listened to it and looked embarrassed.
"Tingting, I don't need to hide it from you now...... Liu Sicheng changed his very serious face and said to Tingting, "All along, I was afraid that after I confessed to you, we wouldn't even be ordinary friends, so I didn't dare to open up to you, and I had to let go of it so far, I want to say ...... to you"
Tingting looked at Liu Sicheng with a strange look, waiting for him to finish speaking.
Liu Sicheng then raised his voice and said word by word:
"Borrow some money!"
After hearing this, Tingting burst out laughing.
"It's so hard to talk about borrowing money?"
"Of course, talking about money hurts feelings." Liu Sicheng spread his hands and said helplessly.
"So why am I lending you money?" Tingting replied.
"In that case, I can't keep my promise." Liu Sicheng smiled bitterly.
"Why?" Tingting frowned when she heard this.
"Don't you know that I'm penniless, where can I have the money to buy local chickens?" Liu Sicheng shrugged his shoulders and told him truthfully, "Or you go to Sister Ying to discuss and ask her to borrow a local chicken; Or maybe I'm going to hunt a pheasant and come back instead of a chicken. ”
"I don't care, I just want to drink local chicken soup, you can figure it out yourself!" Tingting categorically rejected Liu Sicheng's invitation, without the slightest tone of discussion.
"That's right!" Liu Sicheng suddenly remembered something, so he asked, "Then again, you haven't told me yet, why are you sweating wet clothes?" ”
"I refuse to answer until I drink the chicken soup!" Tingting pouted and insisted.
"Don't make a fuss, Tingting! I'm begging you. Liu Sicheng folded his hands and pleaded.
Seeing Liu Sicheng's sincere appearance, Tingting finally stopped insisting, and she responded:
"Well, seeing that you are so sincere, I will make an exception to tell you."
"Let's talk about it." Liu Sicheng urged.
Tingting cleared her throat and finally told the truth.
"The reason I'm like this is because I've been practicing riding for the past few days."
"If you practice riding, you will be chased for debts!" Liu Sicheng asked rhetorically.
"Not really!" Tingting squinted her eyes and retorted, "I stepped up my riding practice to participate in the competition. ”
"Competitions? What is the competition? Liu Sicheng asked.
"Don't you know that the Xiangyang County Commander organized a riding competition? I heard that the prize money for this contest is very large, and I have already signed up for it. In fact, a master like me can win the first place without practice, and it is only for the sake of safety that I have stepped up my practice recently to get into the state as soon as possible. Well, if you think about it, is someone as good as me too conservative? Tingting's expression was a little fluttery, and she said with a smug face.
When Liu Sicheng heard this, he only felt that Tingting was boasting again, so he learned Tingting's usual tone and said sarcastically:
"Money glutches!"
"Hey, don't follow my tone and curse people!" Tingting protested.
"I'm swearing? You're obviously greedy for that big bonus. Liu Sicheng teased.
"I can't look down on that little money!" Tingting glanced at Liu Sicheng and replied with disdain.
"To be a man is to dare to be a man, and Hugh must be duplicitous!" Liu Sicheng continued to tease.
"Hey, how can I be duplicitous? I'm not in it for the money! Tingting argued loudly.
"Why is that?" Liu Sicheng asked.
I saw Tingting raise her hand and point at the tip of Liu Sicheng's nose, and said imposingly:
"I'm here to prove the strength of women! Do you know that I'm the only girl among the contestants, so I'm going to defeat these stinky men and let them learn the strength of women! ”
Tingting's words evoked memories in Liu Sicheng's mind. I remember that Xiaoxue once said something similar to this, although Xiaoxue has a weak personality, her eyes still reveal incomparable firmness when she speaks. Liu Sicheng also praised Xiaoxue as an "equalizer" at the time. From this point of view, Tingting is no different from Xiaoxue, she is a real "equalizer".
"Why are you at a loss?" Tingting's voice interrupted Liu Sicheng's thoughts, only to see her pat Liu Sicheng's arm and laugh, "Could it be that what I said was too profound and made you feel guilty?" Don't blame yourself too much, there are a lot of girls in this girl, I don't care about you! ”
"How can I!" Liu Sicheng protested.
"Stupid!" Tingting suddenly scolded.
"Why are you swearing again?" Liu Sicheng said angrily.
Tingting crossed her hands on her hips and said in a tone of lesson:
"You learn from me to speak and learn only the appearance and no connotation, so that you are unconvincing, I am speechless, there is nothing to say, what do you say you are not stupid?"
Liu Sicheng was unconvinced, and argued with her:
"When was I speechless and speechless by you? I was clearly reminiscing about the past! ”
Tingting stretched out a finger and shook it in the air, and then reprimanded him with confidence:
"Stop quibbling, facts speak louder than words. Also, I advise you, fool: don't learn how to speak from me in the future, or let me be a maverick in the world. There is only one Tingting, you can't learn it! If I don't waste my time with you, I'll go to the shower and change clothes! ”
With that, Tingting went back to the house to pack up a change of clothes, and then walked straight to the bathroom on the side of the west wing.
Liu Sicheng was indignant in his heart, and he scolded himself in a low voice:
"What facts speak louder than words, the facts in your eyes are not true at all, and the basis for your scolding is simply out of nowhere! I'm too lazy to meet you like you! ”
Liu Sicheng knew that strong words were Tingting's strength, and it was futile to argue with her, but he was still stubborn in his heart.
So, Liu Sicheng, who was dissatisfied, decided to tease Tingting.
I saw Liu Sicheng tiptoe to the bathroom door, and then shouted inside:
"Tingting, since you say I'm stupid, what if I'm so stupid that I can't tell the difference between east and west, north and south, and go to the wrong door?"
Liu Sicheng secretly rejoiced, thinking that no matter which girl heard these words in the bath, she would be very nervous, and he even had Tingting's face flushed and panicked in his mind.
As soon as Liu Sicheng's words fell, Tingting's cold voice came from the bathroom.
"Do you know where the entrance to the underworld is?"
"I don't know, so what?" Liu Sicheng laughed.
"If you go through the wrong door, you'll know!" Tingting said coldly.
At this time, Liu Sicheng clearly sensed a murderous aura coming from the bathroom, and it was cold and biting. Liu Sicheng's heart sank, so he had to respond cautiously:
"Oh...... Don't worry, no matter how stupid I am, I won't go to the wrong door......"
For a person like Tingting who has a serious violent bias, Liu Sicheng did not dare to provoke easily, decisively and timely stopped the loss, and did not continue to dispute with Tingting. So Liu Sicheng turned around and returned to the east wing, took off his robe and lay on the couch on his back, looking at the roof in a daze.
Suddenly, there was a small sound of footsteps on the porch, followed by a thud as the door slammed open. The person who came was actually Tingting!
Liu Sicheng stared at the uninvited Tingting in amazement, only to see that she was wearing long hair that had not yet completely dried, a sable fur on the outside, and a silk nightgown with narrow sleeves on the inside; After entering the room, he even removed the sable fur to show off his delicate figure.
Tingting was unrestrained, and walked straight to Liu Sicheng's couch and sat down.
Liu Sicheng had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurriedly asked:
"What's the matter with me?"
The corners of Tingting's mouth raised, and she asked rhetorically:
"Can't I come to you if I'm fine?"
Liu Sicheng looked up and down and said in surprise:
"Are you here to show off your body to me?"
"Why not?" Tingting replied proudly, seemingly confident in her figure.
"Tingting, I want to advise you." Liu Sicheng drooped his face, pretended to be very serious, and said in a deep voice, "Don't go to the street like this, especially to the market." ”
"You're not worried about the crowds of people who pursue me, are you?" Tingting looks stinky and beautiful.
"I'm worried that you'll be stoned to death by the peel of the vegetable leaves!" Liu Sicheng laughed.
"Huh?" Tingting raised her eyebrows when she heard this.
"What I say is true! Your figure and face simply don't match. Liu Sicheng continued to speak sarcastically.
I saw Tingting get up suddenly, and then sat on Liu Sicheng's left hand with a heavy buttocks, which made Liu Sicheng scream in pain.
"Tingting, you are very heavy, don't you know?" Liu Sicheng frowned and complained.
"Who told you to just talk nonsense!" Tingting snorted coldly and said angrily.
"What I say is true!" Liu Sicheng insisted.
Tingting listened to this, and pressed it again, so that Liu Sicheng's left hand nerve was about to go numb.
Liu Sicheng knew that Tingting must not have come to show off her figure, so he no longer argued with her and waited for Tingting to open her mouth to reveal the truth. Seeing that Liu Sicheng was silent, Tingting sighed, and finally stopped arguing meaninglessly.
"Actually, I came to you to discuss the chicken soup." Tingting said frankly.
"What's there to talk about? If you lend me money, won't you have local chicken soup to drink? If I didn't borrow it, I couldn't do anything about it, so I had to break the contract. Liu Sicheng told the truth.
Tingting knew that what Liu Sicheng said was true, so she said to Liu Sicheng in an inquiring tone:
"If I wait until I win the game and get the prize money, and I lend you money, will it be regarded as a celebration?"
"Absolutely." Liu Sicheng replied.
"But how are you going to pay me back?" Tingting squinted her eyes and asked.
"Do you still have to pay back?" Liu Sicheng was surprised.
"You poor devil has no income. How can I afford to pay me back? Tingting seems to be very sensitive to money and has always been obsessed with it.
Seeing Tingting entangled, Liu Sicheng had to sigh and replied helplessly:
"To be honest, I don't know how to pay it back."
Tingting seemed to have a plan, but I saw the corners of her mouth raised, and she smiled slyly:
"How about I give you a suggestion? If you promise me, I will forgive your debts. ”
Liu Sicheng saw Tingting's ill-intentioned look, and knew that she must have something to say, so he asked:
"What?"
"How about being a half-day slave for me?" Tingting smiled wickedly.
Liu Sicheng knew that the so-called "slave" was just Tingting's exaggerated statement, but in fact, Tingting just wanted to call herself, but when he thought that he would be called by Tingting at will, he was angry, so he protested:
"You want me to sell myself? Absolutely not! ”
"Don't worry, I won't embarrass you." Tingting waved her hand, revealing an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Really?" Liu Sicheng looked at Tingting with suspicion, as if he wanted to see through the conspiracy behind her.
"I just need you to watch the game and not leave the stadium without permission!" Tingting pretended to be relaxed.
Liu Sicheng, who often suffers losses at Tingting's hands, had a hunch that things would never be so simple, so he asked suspiciously:
"Really?"
Tingting snorted.
When Liu Sicheng heard this, he sighed and said:
"Then I'll just make it difficult for once......"
At this moment, Tingting showed an evil smile and said her final condition.
"By the way, after the race, help me loosen my waist, beat my back, and wash my feet......"
"Wait!" Liu Sicheng grabbed Bai Dao, "This is a matter of subordinates, I won't do it!" ”
"Do you want to break the contract?" Tingting asked.
"You didn't explain it to me just now, it is considered a deception to me, I can naturally refuse!" Liu Sicheng immediately protested.
"Liu Sicheng!" Tingting pointed at the tip of Liu Sicheng's nose with a condescending attitude, and said angrily, "It should be your honor that you can give me such a beautiful woman a massage." How can you refuse my kindness without knowing what is right or wrong? ”
"You're a big beauty? You often dress up as a man, and the devil knows if you're a man or a woman! is actually shameless and vainly claims to be a big beauty? Liu Sicheng rolled his eyes and replied with disdain.
"I'm a man or a woman, won't it be clear if you test it yourself when you give me a massage?" Tingting blurted out.
Liu Sicheng couldn't help but blush when he heard this, and then put on a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, and retorted:
"Do you really think I am such a subordinate? I'm a righteous gentleman, so I won't take advantage of you! ”
"You're a womanizer, don't pretend to be a decent gentleman!" Tingting shook her head, then pointed at Liu Sicheng's left arm and said angrily, "If it's not so, why is your left hand so dishonest!" ”
At this time, Liu Sicheng realized that his left hand was still pressed under Tingting's buttocks, and quickly pulled it out.
"This is what you pressed me, don't wronged me!" Liu Sicheng rubbed his already sour left hand and protested loudly.
"Liu Sicheng, facts speak louder than words, you don't have to quibble anymore, everything is in vain!" Tingting seemed to have grabbed Liu Sicheng's handle and said with a wicked smile.
"I'm not quibbling!" Liu Sicheng loudly denied it.
"As a man, you should dare to do it." Tingting laughed.
"I didn't do it!" Liu Sicheng continued to protest.
Tingting didn't continue to argue with Liu Sicheng, got up leisurely, and then left Liu Sicheng's room in a burst of sinister laughter, leaving only a sentence.
"Liu Sicheng, you must not go back on what you promised! Otherwise, I will publicize your bad deeds and ruin your reputation. ”
Damn, die Tingting, it's obvious that it's a good thing that I did, but it's counted on my head. Well, if you dare to order me to serve you and give you a massage, I will touch you up and down as you say! Liu Sicheng sneered.
Thinking of this, Liu Sicheng somehow only felt that his face was red and his ears were red, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
※※※※※※※※※
In the blink of an eye, the day of competition has arrived. In the early morning of this day, Liu Sicheng somehow got up very late, and after a rush to get dressed and washed, he hurriedly ran out of the room and came straight to the door of Tingting's room.
Liu Sicheng raised his hand and knocked on the door, calling out loudly:
"Tingting, are you in there?"
There was silence in the room, and no one answered.
"If you don't speak, I'll come in." Liu Sicheng called again.
Still no one answered.
So Liu Sicheng pushed the door in, looked closely, and found Tingting wrapped in a brocade quilt, lying motionless on the couch.
Seeing this, Liu Sicheng strode forward, pushed Tingting through the quilt, and urged:
"Hurry up, or you won't be able to catch the game!"
Hearing this, Tingting slowly opened her eyes, and then replied weakly:
"Yes, yes? I got up right away. ”
I saw that her hair was unkempt, and she was supporting her body with her hands, and she sat up with difficulty.
At this time, Liu Sicheng realized that Tingting's face was unusually red, her face was still stained with beads of sweat, her head was drooping, and her eyes were blank.
Could it be that Tingting is sick? Liu Sicheng immediately reached out and touched her forehead, which was as hot as boiling water.
"Tingting, you have a fever!" Liu Sicheng exclaimed, "Could it be that you have caught a cold in the past few days of assault practice?" ”
"I'm fine...... Let's go. Tingting waved her hand, then struggled to stand up, took off the robe propped up on the hanger, and wore it on her body indiscriminately, her movements were extremely inconvenient, and she changed her previous appearance of being nimble. Liu Sicheng saw that Tingting's body was shaking slightly when she was walking, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
Seeing this scene, how could Liu Sicheng, who was like a mirror, not know that Tingting was very sick, but he just refused to admit it. Then he persuaded softly:
"Tingting, don't go to the competition, okay?"
"Don't worry about me...... I'm fine......" Tingting broke away from Liu Sicheng's hand and said forcefully.
"Tingting, don't hold on. Your body is more important than racing! Liu Sicheng patiently advised.
"It's not a big deal...... What I can overcome......" Tingting waved her hand and insisted.
Liu Sicheng knew that Tingting was born to be strong, and there was no way, so he had to try to persuade Tingting to give up the game from a different angle.
"Tingting, you're a master, right?" Liu Sicheng said gently.
"Of course." Tingting responded.
"You're a recognized master, aren't you?" Liu Sicheng asked again.
"That's right." Tingting replied.
"Since you're a recognized master, others will definitely know your strength, so you don't need to prove it through competitions." Liu Sicheng advised.
Tingting listened, smiled slightly, and then replied categorically:
"Sicheng, you know that facts speak louder than words. So I can't miss this competition! ”
"Are you really insisting on going?" Liu Sicheng became a difficulty.
Tingting nodded heavily in affirmation.
Now that Tingting has made up her mind, Liu Sicheng can't force her to stay, so she has to earnestly ask:
"Tingting, if you insist on going, I won't stop you, but you have to remember, if you really can't do it, don't be reckless!"
Tingting hummed softly.
"Be sure to protect yourself!" Liu Sicheng admonished.
Tingting nodded.
"Also, I'll cheer you on from the stands!" Liu Sicheng continued.
"Sicheng, don't say it, let's go quickly, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the game." Tingting urged urgently.
Time was pressing, Tingting just briefly freshened up, and the two went out one after the other. I saw Tingting take out two horses from the cow and horse shed, but invited Liu Sicheng to ride with her, and it was not the red horse she usually rides.
Seeing that Liu Sicheng was still standing in place in a daze, Tingting couldn't help frowning, and urged urgently:
"Why don't you come up soon?"
"Why don't you take your jujube red horse?" Liu Sicheng wondered.
"Stupid!" Tingting shook her head, and said angrily, "The jujube red horse will have to compete later, how can you waste horsepower at this time?" ”
"Oh, I see!" Tingting's explanation made Liu Sicheng suddenly realize.
"There's no time, come up for me!" Tingting ordered.
Liu Sicheng didn't shy away from hearing this, anyway, Tingting is wearing men's clothes at the moment. I saw that he was a little clumsy and helped the back saddle bridge to turn over and get on the horse, straddled behind Tingting, and thought that the basic skills were still not proficient.
After Liu Sicheng sat down, Tingting slammed the horse's belly, and the horse neighed under her crotch, and immediately galloped.
Accompanied by the sound of clattering horses' hooves, Liu Sicheng actually heard Tingting whisper softly:
"Sicheng, thank you for your concern."
Liu Sicheng's heart warmed when he heard this, so he blurted out:
"No thanks!"
At this time, Liu Sicheng, who was sitting behind him, stretched out his hand to hug Tingting's small waist, and there was the sound of the whirring wind in his ears, as well as the retreating trees, distant mountains, and white clouds, and he couldn't help but feel a little comfortable.
Nothing to say all the way.
After arriving at the arena, the two went their separate ways, Tingting went to check in, and Liu Sicheng went to find a seat. Unexpectedly, there were a lot of people around the stadium, and it was difficult to insert a needle. Just when he was helpless, Liu Sicheng heard someone calling his name.
Following the prestige, it turned out to be Jiajia.
At this time, Jiajia was sitting in a stand, waving to Liu Sicheng from afar.
Liu Sicheng moved all the way in the direction where Jiajia was, and finally squeezed through the crowd, and found that there was an empty seat next to Jiajia, so he didn't want to sit next to Jiajia.
The two of them have a surprisingly good view, how did Jiajia occupy such a good position? Liu Sicheng couldn't help but wonder.
Looking around, Liu Sicheng found that there were all richly dressed people nearby, who seemed to be big people with heads and faces, and there were even soldiers guarding the outer layer, separating this stand from the bustling crowd.
Liu Sicheng suddenly realized at this time that it was not Jiajia who occupied this position, but the privilege behind her.
After some thought, Liu Sicheng took the initiative to ask:
"Jiajia, I didn't expect you to come to watch the game?"
"As Tingting's best friend, of course I want to come!" Jiajia paused for a moment, then asked, "By the way, Sicheng." I have a question for you. ”
"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it." Liu Sicheng replied.
Jiajia stared at Liu Sicheng and asked:
"Why did the two of us come together?"
Liu Sicheng didn't think that Jiajia would have this question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, because he had no answer in his heart.
Why did he get together with Jiajia? Liu Sicheng never thought about this at all, or didn't want to think about it.
However, seeing Jiajia asking him so formally, Liu Sicheng had to answer. So he lowered his head, like a child who had made a mistake, and he didn't dare to look at Jiajia's gaze at all, and said in his mouth:
"I ...... I don't know ......."
Liu Sicheng's answer unexpectedly did not arouse Jiajia's anger, and she responded softly:
"Actually, I don't know."
"Yes, yes?" Liu Sicheng asked in a low voice.
Jiajia grinned, and it turned out to be a happy expression.
"I'm glad I didn't!"
"W-why is that?" Regarding Jiajia's answer, Liu Sicheng was completely confused.
So, Jiajia told what she was thinking.
"Because if I knew why, one day I would find that it was no longer there, and it would be difficult for us to go on. But now I'm glad I don't know why, so I don't have to worry about it disappearing. Because we don't need any reason at all to be together. Do you think the same way as I do? ”
"yes, yes." Liu Sicheng replied.
Jiajia stared at her when she heard this, and then stroked her palms and smiled:
"Really? I'm so happy! ”
Seeing Jiajia's happy smile, Liu Sicheng beside him was related because he lied to Jiajia. Liu Sicheng and Jiajia have the opposite idea, he has never thought about the reason for the relationship between the two, because he is afraid that he will not be able to find the reason. I don't know the reason, Jiajia thinks it's a blessing, because I don't know the reason for dating, and there is no reason to separate. In Liu Sicheng's view, this matter is by no means a fortunate thing, because he doesn't know the reason for dating, and there is no reason to continue dating, and the latter is what Liu Sicheng has been looking for.
Liu Sicheng didn't understand why he was contrary to Jiajia's idea.
Could it be that the person you love in your heart is not a good one?
Thinking of this, Liu Sicheng's heart became heavier and heavier, he didn't dare to face Jiajia squarely, and he didn't dare to talk to her.
A strong sense of guilt overwhelmed Liu Sicheng, this guilt has been faintly present since he first interacted with Jiajia, and then it has become bigger and bigger, and at this moment this feeling is so real, no longer hazy, no longer obscure...... Liu Sicheng was confused.
The race starts at this time.
With a shrill whistle, the whole arena immediately boiled.
Liu Sicheng was awakened from his cranky thoughts, so he calmed down and concentrated on watching the game, not thinking about it.
Tingting's performance on the field was extremely brave, and although she was sick, she still rushed to the front.
Seeing this scene, Liu Sicheng couldn't help but boil with enthusiasm, and shouted and cheered for her at the top of his voice.
By the second lap, Tingting was already far ahead.
On the final lap, she was three half-lengths ahead of the second-place finisher, and there was no suspense about taking the crown.
Just as Liu Sicheng was cheering for Tingting in the stands, Tingting's center of gravity was unstable and she fell off the horse, and the scene was in an uproar.
Liu Sicheng was even more anxious, he shouted Tingting's name in his mouth, desperately pushed aside the crowd, ran to Tingting's side as fast as possible, and hugged her into his arms.
At this time, Tingting's head was covered with blood, her eyes were misty, and her face was very haggard.
Liu Sicheng was anxious in his eyes, and his voice changed because of nervousness.
"Tingting, you ......"
"I'm fine...... Tingting tried to squeeze out a smile and muttered, "Sicheng...... I've won the championship...... Is that right? ”
"Yes, Champion!" Liu Sicheng held Tingting's jade hand tightly and responded.
"As a bonus...... You have to do ...... Give me the local chicken soup to drink......" Tingting said intermittently with heavy breathing.
"Well, I'll do it!" After that, Liu Siguo broke his back and picked up Tingting, and then said urgently, "Tingting, I'll send you to the doctor!" ”
"Then please......" Tingting muttered with her eyes half-open.
After that, Tingting showed her head crookedly and fell into a deep sleep, and Liu Sicheng could completely feel the heat of her body.
Although Tingting was already in a coma, a faint smile appeared on her face, which seemed to be extremely reassuring to Liu Sicheng.
Looking at the unconscious Tingting, Liu Sicheng's heart hung in his throat, so he desperately rushed through the crowd and tried his best to send Tingting to the nearest hospital as quickly as possible. After that, it was anxiously waiting for news outside the ward.
After about a stick of incense, Jiajia arrived on horseback, and as soon as she entered the door, she asked Liu Sicheng urgently:
"How's Tingting doing?"
Liu Sicheng was also worried, he shook his head and replied:
"The doctor is still treating her, and I don't know the specifics."
After that, both fell silent at the same time.
As time passed, Liu Sicheng's worries about Tingting became more and more serious.
He paced back and forth in the room, sweating his clothes even though it was winter.
It's just a fever, and it's all right! Just fall off your horse, and you'll be fine! Liu Sicheng comforted himself repeatedly.
But isn't there a danger from a fever? Fever is a precursor to many serious illnesses, and it is difficult to guarantee that Tingting will not be seriously ill. Will it be okay to fall off the horse? What should I do if I fall on an important part? Life is inherently fragile, and even a small amount of damage can take it away.
Liu Sicheng remembered a real thing that happened in school when he was a sophomore in high school. A classmate fell while playing badminton after school and never got up again. The people around him took him to the hospital, but upon examination, it was found that he had "lost his brain" and could not be rescued at all. I just fell, but I didn't expect to kill someone.
Thinking of death, Liu Sicheng's heart was cold. He had witnessed Xiaoxue's death with his own eyes, and he really didn't want this kind of tragedy to happen again, after all, his fragile heart really couldn't bear the pain of weighing more than a thousand catties.
At this moment, all kinds of thoughts came to his heart, which made Liu Sicheng's heart tremble, and he was completely unable to think normally.
"Sicheng, I can see that you care about Tingting very much......" Jiajia next to her suddenly burst out with a sentence.
Liu Sicheng didn't know anything at all, just casually perfunctory.
As he spoke, the doctor walked out of the ward with a heavy face, and Liu Sicheng hurriedly stepped forward when he saw this.
I saw him press the doctor's arm hard and ask loudly:
"Doctor, Tingting, what's wrong with her?"
At the critical juncture, Liu Sicheng had long forgotten the due courtesy.
The doctor shook his head. Liu Sicheng's heart sank immediately, and he recalled the pictures in the TV series in his mind.
The physician shook his head at the patient's family and added, "We have done our best." "This means that the patient has died. Don't......
"She's fine." The doctor replied slowly, "I've already bandaged the wound on her head, and she just needs to recuperate at home." ”
It turned out that the doctor shook his head just now to indicate that Tingting was fine, which was really shocking.
Later, Jiajia hired an ox cart to send Tingting back to the grassland, while Liu Sicheng stayed on the side to support Tingting throughout the whole process, for fear that she would make any mistakes, and her actions were extremely natural and not half deliberate, and Jiajia naturally saw this scene in her eyes.
After returning to the cottage, Liu Sicheng carried Tingting back to the room to rest, and then turned around to send Jiajia to the door.
"Jiajiashu is not far away, I have to go back to take care of Tingting." Liu Sicheng arched his hand.
While speaking, Liu Sicheng looked in the direction of the west wing from time to time, and his face was very anxious.
Seeing this, Jiajia couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her heart, she smiled bitterly:
"Okay, I'll visit Tingting in two days."
"Be careful all the way." Liu Sicheng instructed.
After saying goodbye to Jiajia in a hurry, Liu Sicheng didn't want to stay for a moment, and quickly turned around and returned to Tingting's room, at this time he had nothing else in his heart except Tingting.
After entering the door, Liu Sicheng saw Yue Ying standing next to Tingting's couch, holding a pile of clothes in her hands, presumably she should have just changed Tingting's clothes.
Seeing Liu Sicheng's anxious look, Yueying opened her mouth and asked:
"Sicheng, Tingting, why is she so scarred?"
Liu Sicheng shook his head and sighed:
"She insisted on going to a horseback riding competition with a high fever, and then accidentally fell off her horse and was covered in scars."
Yueying frowned when she heard this, and asked:
"Since you know she's sick, why don't you stop her from racing?"
Liu Sicheng smiled helplessly:
"Sister Ying should understand Tingting's temper, I can't stop it if I want to."
"That's just as well." Yueying sighed lightly.
Liu Sicheng lowered his head and glanced at Tingting lying on the couch, she was breathing smoothly and sleeping deeply.
"To be honest, I regret not being able to stop her from racing, and I really don't want her to have an accident." Liu Sicheng sighed, "Because I want her to be by my side all the time." ”
In the depths of his feelings, Liu Sicheng naturally said his truest thoughts without concealing them at all.
Yueying listened to it and smiled at Liu Sicheng.
"Sicheng, you came here to take care of Tingting, right?" Yueying asked softly.
Liu Sicheng nodded in affirmation.
"I'll do it, and I'll wash your clothes." Yueying said as she handed the clothes in her hand to Liu Sicheng, "These are all things on Tingting's body, and they are already soaked." I just helped Tingting wipe her sweat and replaced it easily. ”
"Okay, I'll go wash it." After only taking half a step, Liu Sicheng turned his head sideways and sighed at the unconscious Tingting, "Why bother fighting like this......
※※※※※※※※※
Afterwards, Liu Sicheng carefully cooked a pot of local chicken soup for Tingting with the cooking skills he learned from Xiaoxue as agreed.
Tingting only took a sip and froze, she looked at Liu Sicheng with strange eyes.
"What's wrong, doesn't it taste good?" Liu Sicheng asked.
Tingting thought for a moment, and then replied calmly:
"No, I think this soup tastes special."
"Don't you like it?" Liu Sicheng asked.
"I love it!" Tingting smiled.
After hearing this, Liu Sichang breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly congratulated Tingting for appreciating her cooking skills.
"So you wish I could always be by your side." Tingting said coldly.
It turned out that Tingting was conscious at the time, and she actually heard the conversation between the two, Liu Sicheng couldn't help but blush when she heard this, and hurriedly denied it:
"I, how could I have said that?"
"Didn't you?" Tingting asked with a smile.
"Nope!" Liu Sicheng flatly denied it.
"Did I dream about it?" Tingting's eyes gurgled, and for a while she was not sure if this was just an auditory hallucination from her illness.
"yes, you must have dreamed of it!" Liu Sicheng insisted.
Looking at Tingting's suspicious look, Liu Sicheng sighed in his heart:
If I knew this, I shouldn't have said that by Tingting's couch......
