Chapter Twenty-Three: You Have No Heart
Ji Shisheng covered his forehead with one hand, and clenched his other hand into a fist, almost breaking his palm.
Mo Nian looked at him, motionless.
There are more than forty floors left in the elevator to reach the negative first floor.
If it goes on like this, can Ji Shisheng hold on?
Mo Nian thought, and shifted his gaze to Ji Shisheng's knuckles on his lap, which were white from clenching into fists too hard.
Subconsciously, she stretched out her hand and covered Ji Shisheng's clenched hand.
Ji Shisheng was stunned for a moment, endured the pain and raised his eyes to look at her, and between the gaps in the long hair in front of his messy forehead, Mo Nian's expressionless face was revealed.
As Mo Nian said, it is indeed very strange to have such an expression anytime and anywhere.
However, compared to the smirking face, Ji Shisheng preferred to look at this face without fluctuation.
When you look at her, you feel calm inexplicably.
Is it because Mo Nian's face is too deceptive, does this expression make people feel reassured?
…… Peace?
Just by her?
Ji Shisheng's mind flashed all the things that had happened, his brows furrowed, and he said in a dumb voice: "What are you doing?" ”
"I don't know." Mo Nian replied quickly.
Ji Shisheng became more and more unclear: "I don't know? ”
Do you do it yourself, and you don't know what it means?
"I just think it'......"
Mo Nian lowered his eyes and looked at her holding Ji Shisheng's hand, and said calmly: "This will probably make you better, isn't it all like this on TV?" When patients are uncomfortable, they always want to grasp something, not an object, but a living existence, some people hold their pets, they will feel cured, and some people will hold the hands of relatives and friends, and they will feel at ease. ”
"Loved ones? Friend? ”
When Ji Shisheng heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "Mo Nian, who do you think you are mine?" Don't take your own seriously! ”
"Well, I know I'm neither."
Mo Nian's indifferent reply made Ji Shisheng feel frustrated again-
This emotionless woman always makes herself powerless.
It's just like ......
His nemesis.
"But at least I'm human, alive." Mo Nian said again, "You can make do with it, there is no one else here." ”
Ji Shisheng: "......"
Although the pain in his body was unbearable, and it was difficult to calm down Mo Nian, he wanted to laugh when he heard Mo Nian say these words seriously.
When did Mo Nian also have a talent for telling cold jokes?
Mo Nian noticed that the corners of Ji Shisheng's mouth were slightly curved, and his original painful expression seemed to ease a little.
"Useful?" Seeing this, Mo Nian immediately withdrew his other free hand and held Ji Shisheng's hand.
"What are you doing?" Ji Shisheng couldn't guess Mo Nian's thoughts.
Mo Nian had to bend down because she was holding Ji Shisheng's hand with both hands, and when she heard Ji Shisheng ask her, she could only tilt her head to talk to Ji Shisheng, and she said in a tone that was not very sure: "...... Double the peace of mind? ”
Ji Shisheng: "......"
I don't know if it was an illusion or something, Mo Nian heard a small "poof", as if he couldn't hold back his laughter, and he didn't want others to find out.
Ji Shisheng smiled.
Mo Nian was sure that at a certain second, she saw Ji Shisheng's expression change, as if she had forgotten the pain at that moment.
She thoughtfully said, "It's good to be useful." ”
When Ji Shisheng heard this, he didn't know if it was because the secret was discovered or what, and his tone was a little embarrassed and said, "Mo Nian! Don't take yourself too seriously! ”
"Me?" Mo Nian didn't understand what Ji Shisheng was saying, "Is there one?" When? ”
Ji Shisheng: "......" he lost, he really lost.
"You're ......"
Ji Shisheng wanted to say, Mo Nian, you are simply an alien's mind, but just as he was about to say this, he looked at Mo Nian who was close at hand, and suddenly realized one thing-
Because he wanted to hold him with both hands, Mo Nian bent down and tilted his head to look at him, and the distance between the two was close enough to hear each other's breathing in this quiet elevator.
Too...... It's close.
This woman, is there no sense of distance at all?
They're men and women.
"You...... For all men? ”
Ji Shisheng didn't know what mood he was in to ask this sentence, he only knew that the moment he said it, he regretted it.
"Forget it, I don't want to know." Ji Shisheng immediately added, for fear that Mo Nian would be amorous and think that he had something to think of her.
Mo Nian originally wanted to ask Ji Shisheng what he meant by what he said just now, but after listening to Ji Shisheng's words, he nodded and said obediently: "Oh." ”
Ji Shisheng: "......" Do you want to be so obedient? Didn't you always disagree with me before? Why didn't you go against the grain this time?
For Mo Nian, who is always free from his own judgment, Ji Shisheng has a feeling of powerlessness and annoyance.
Seeing that Ji Shisheng didn't speak, he looked to the side with his face away, Mo Nian thought about it, and suddenly said, "Actually, I don't understand your question just now." ”
"What?" Ji Shisheng was stunned, a little surprised, Mo Nian would continue to speak.
"What do you mean I do to all men?"
Mo Nian looked at Ji Shisheng and asked seriously, "What does 'this' mean?" ”
was asked by Mo Nian, Ji Shisheng didn't know how to answer.
What should I say?
"You're so close to all men?"
No way.
Doesn't it seem that he cares about Mo Nian a lot?
Next, wouldn't Mo Nian say, "Are you jealous?" ”
As soon as he thought of such a scene dialogue, Ji Shisheng felt a sense of suffocation called embarrassment!
"It's ......"
Countless organized words flashed through his mind, and Ji Shisheng chose a safer sentence: "Don't you know to keep your distance from men?" ”
"Keep your distance?"
Although Mo Nian lost her feelings, it didn't mean that she lost her IQ, she quickly realized that Ji Shisheng cared about them getting too close, so she said: "I know, but now it's an exception, if you want to hold your hand, it's the only way to do it, and I'm tired of doing this." ”
She presents the facts.
However, to the ears of ordinary people, these words sound like -
I am kind enough to help you, but you still dislike me, you have no heart.
Ji Shisheng has been silent, obviously he just reminded Mo Nian not to be too close to him, why did the atmosphere seem to change to him in the end as if he was making trouble unreasonably and not knowing how to be considerate?
When he thought about it, he seemed to be over......
That's weird!
"Mo Nian, you are ......" Ji Shisheng was speechless, he understood that Mo Nian was his nemesis, no matter what the topic, he couldn't argue with Mo Nian!
"It doesn't hurt anymore?"
Suddenly, Mo Nian spoke, interrupting Ji Shisheng.
Ji Shisheng was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted, he seemed to ......
It really doesn't hurt anymore.
I don't know when it started, maybe it was when he was concentrating on arguing with Mo Nian, but the pain that had tormented him before suddenly stopped.
How can it be?
In the past tense, it was clear that once it flares up, it will intensify and cause unpredictable consequences until ......
Ji Shisheng's thoughts froze, unwilling to think about the unpleasant result.
The only thing he was thinking about now was-
The "peace of mind" given to him by Mo Nian is really useful.
But, how is that possible?
This is Mo Nian!
Thinking of this, more unpleasant memories welled up from the depths of my mind.
Those dark, desperate memories......
Ji Shisheng's expression suddenly turned cold, he swept Mo Nian's faint face, and suddenly said, "The blind cat meets a dead mouse!" ”
Yes, the cessation of his pain could never be the credit of Mo Nian, it must be a coincidence!
The only thing in the world who can't give him "peace of mind" is the woman in front of him!
Because, this woman, when she needs her the most......
Abandon yourself!
