Chapter Forty-Eight: She Alone Is Alone
After thinking for a while, Qiao Anning still picked up the phone, "Mr. Lu......"
Hearing her voice, Lu Si couldn't help but smile, and his voice unconsciously softened a little, "How are you going to coax me?" ”
Qiao Anning felt that his face was a little hot, and he was silent for a while before he said hesitantly: "Didn't you say that you don't need to coax......
A chuckle overflowed from Lu Sishen's throat, and he said in a pleasant tone: "There is a punishment." ”
"What punishment?" Qiao Anning's fingers tightened, and he asked reflexively.
"You'll find out later."
Because of Lu Sishen's words, Qiao Anning couldn't sit still, like a person waiting for the verdict but not knowing what kind of fate he would have.
About an hour later, there was a knock on the door of the ward, and after Qiao Anning said please enter, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Lu Sishen slowly walked in with a bag.
Seeing that it was him, Qiao Anning's eyebrows jumped, and he bit his lower lip and squeezed out a smile: "Mr. Lu, are you here......"
Seeing that she looked like she was facing a great enemy, Lu Sishen knew that what he said on the phone just now scared her, put the bag in his hand on the table, raised his eyebrows and said, "Chengnan Wangji's fried buns." ”
Hearing Lu Sishen say this, Qiao Anning moved her eyes to the bag on the side, and saw the word Wang Ji printed in the middle of the bag, she was stunned for a moment.
She likes to eat Wang Ji's fried buns, only Xue Lingling knows about this, she didn't announce it at that time, life was tight, once passing by Wang Ji, she bought two fried buns, she was very hungry at the time, and felt that this was the best food in the world.
Later, every time she passed by Wang Ji, she would buy two fried buns.
Because she always remembers how she felt when she first ate it.
In the past, Xue Lingling would accompany her to buy it, and over time, Xue Lingling also fell in love with the fried buns.
Qiao Anning's gaze on the bag did not take her eyes off for a long time, and finally, she made a decision in her heart, "Mr. Lu, I want to meet Xue Lingling." ”
Lu Sishen was silent for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send you over tomorrow when you are discharged from the hospital." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Lu." Qiao Anning looked up at him, his eyes full of gratitude.
"Call me Lu Sishen in the future, now I'm just a man who wants to pursue you, not the president of N&H, you call me Mr. Lu makes me feel like facing my subordinates." Lu Si looked at her calmly, tenderness flowing in his eyes.
Qiao Anning couldn't bear such a gaze, so she nodded with her eyes open, "Hmm." ”
After dinner, Lu Si sat on the sofa in the ward reading documents, and Qiao Anning turned on the computer to watch dramas.
Qiao Anning watched five episodes of the TV series and found that Lu Sishen had no intention of leaving, so he couldn't help but remind him loudly, "That, Mr. Lu, I want to sleep." ”
Lu Sishen raised his head and said lightly, "What did you call me just now?"
"Lu Si Shen ......"
"Hmm." Lu Sishen smiled with satisfaction and said, "You can sleep if you want, I have to read the documents for a while, I'll go and turn off the lights and turn on the table lamp next to the sofa." ”
Seeing that he seemed to be planning to stay here for one night, Qiao Anning said a little uncomfortably, "Aren't you going back?" ”
"Well, I'm afraid you're scared alone at night." Lu Sishen stared at the document with his eyes and said without raising his head.
Hearing this, Qiao Anning hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no!" How can I be afraid, I'm not a child again. ”
Lu Sishen put down the document, looked at Qiao Anning, hooked his lips and said, "Are you afraid of what I will do to you?" ”
"Why, I just think you must not sleep well here, and you are in the hospital, and it is not safe to be alone at home."
"Lu Roll and go to his grandparents."
Well, she has nothing more to say......
She turned off the computer and put it aside, lay down and looked at Lu Sishen's side face, under the orange light of the desk lamp, Lu Sishen's originally sharp facial features became extremely soft, handsome and exciting.
Qiao Anning felt that her heartbeat was obviously accelerating, and she quickly looked away and pulled up the quilt to cover her head.
"Isn't that hot?"
A slightly smiling voice suddenly sounded, Qiao Anning was startled, pulled open the quilt and saw that Lu Sishen had already put down the file, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked to look at her, his face flushed, and he pretended to be calm and said, "It's okay." ”
Lu Si sank up and slowly walked to the bed, looked at her softly, leaned over and landed a kiss on her forehead.
Qiao Anning felt like a feather brushing lightly across her forehead, a little itchy, and her heart beat so fast that she could hear it clearly.
"This is the punishment for you sneaking out of the hospital, sleep, good night."
Lu Sishen tucked the quilt for her, and then walked to the sofa and turned off the lamp.
The whole room was pitch black in an instant, Qiao Anning breathed lightly, and asked the question in his heart, "Lu Sishen, why me?" ”
In the dark, she heard Lu Sishen's breathing a little heavier, and after a while, he spoke: "Because you are special to me." ”
Qiao Anning's hand holding the quilt tightened suddenly, she never felt that she had anything special, if she had to say anything, it was probably that she had lived more ups and downs than others in the past twenty years.
Neither of them spoke again, and the room was so quiet that only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard.
Qiao Anning thought that she would lose sleep, but it didn't take long for her to feel a wave of sleepiness hit her, and she soon fell into a deep sleep.
Listening to the sound of steady breathing from the bed, Lu Sishen hooked his lips, he was very glad that she was the person he wanted to protect for the rest of his life.
*
When the first rays of sunlight poured into the ward in the morning, Qiao Anning woke up.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Lu Sishen's deep voice came from the side, "Awake?" Washed up and had breakfast. ”
Qiao Anning turned his head in astonishment and found that Lu Sishen was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, and there were already two breakfasts on the table in front of him.
She picked up her phone, found that the screen showed 7:26 a.m., and said in surprise, "When did you wake up?" ”
"Two hours ago."
Qiao Anning: "......"
It wasn't half past five...... It's early enough......
After she washed up and had breakfast, a doctor came over and checked her and told her that she could be discharged from the hospital and that she should pay attention to rest when she returned.
Qiao Anning thanked the doctor and was about to go through the discharge procedures, but Lu Sishen said that it had been done and he could leave directly.
After changing their clothes, the two walked to the entrance of the hospital together.
When he arrived at the first floor of the inpatient department, Lu Sishen asked Qiao Anning to wait for him at the door and pick up the car himself.
As soon as Lu Sishen left, Qiao Anning turned his head and saw Qiao Xuewei and Nie Yicheng walking towards the inpatient department.
Qiao Anning wanted to avoid it, but Qiao Xuewei had already spotted her with sharp eyes, and walked quickly in front of her, her eyes full of surprise, "An Ning, are you here to see Dad?" ”
Hearing this, Qiao Anning's eyes flashed with surprise, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Qiao is always sick?" ”
The smile on Qiao Xuewei's face froze for a moment, and she looked at Qiao Anning with an embarrassed expression and said: "An Ning, how do you call Dad Mr. Qiao, if Dad hears it, he will definitely be very sad...... Go up and see Daddy, he misses you so much. ”
Will he be sad?
Qiao Anning sneered in his heart, he wished he didn't have her as a daughter, right?
She hooked her lips and smiled, "Do you have a bad memory?" When Mr. Qiao kicked me out of the house six years ago, he said that he would only have one daughter in the future, and he and I are just strangers now, and you are not afraid that he will see my condition worsen? ”
Qiao Xuewei's eyes flashed with injury, and she defended: "How come, Dad talked about you a few days ago......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qiao Anning, "Qiao Xuewei, you don't have to say these scenes that you don't believe in, I don't want to hear it, if it's okay, I'll leave first." ”
Qiao Anning wanted to bypass her and leave, but when she passed by Nie Yicheng's side, she was grabbed by the wrist, she reflexively shook it off, took a big step back, and looked up at him with disgust, "Nie Yicheng, please respect yourself." ”
Nie Yicheng didn't want to talk to her, but when he saw her bad attitude towards Qiao Xuewei, he still couldn't help it, and looked at her coldly: "Apologize to Xuewei, and then go up to see Uncle Qiao." ”
Qiao Anning was laughed angrily, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a touch of mockery, "Mr. Nie, I don't know where you got such a big face, ordering me to do this and that?" ”
"Just because I am your future brother-in-law, I can't watch you continue to fall, you go and apologize to Uncle Qiao now, let him forgive you, and break off with Mr. Lu!"
Qiao Anning: "......"
She really didn't want to talk to this kind of feel-good self-conscious pen.
Qiao Xuewei didn't want Qiao Anning and Qiao Guoqiang to meet, but now when she saw Nie Yicheng say this, she hurriedly grabbed his wrist, "Yicheng, don't force Anning, she is my sister, I won't be angry with her, it's too angry for her to apologize to me." ”
Too lazy to look at Qiao Xuewei's coy posture anymore, Qiao Anning walked directly out of the door, Nie Yicheng wanted to hold her, but he paused after seeing the figure walking in from outside the door.
Seeing Lu Sishen, the coldness in Qiao Anning's eyes faded, walked quickly in front of him, looked up at him and said, "Let's go." ”
Lu Sishen stretched out his hand to tighten her scarf a little, and Yu Guang glanced at Qiao Xuewei and Nie Yicheng standing behind Qiao Anning, and asked lightly, "Have you been bullied?" ”
Qiao Anning shook his head.
Confirming that she was not pretending to be strong, Lu Sishen carried her out.
As soon as he walked a few steps, Qiao Xuewei's voice came from behind him, "An Ning, aren't you really going to see your father?" He's been hospitalized for days......"
Qiao Anning frowned in disgust, Qiao Xuewei opened her mouth at this time, didn't she just want Lu Sishen to feel that she was a cold-blooded and ruthless person who didn't even want to visit her own father when he was sick?
She looked back at Qiao Xuewei expressionlessly, her eyes indifferent, "He is your father, not mine." ”
The hope in Qiao Xuewei's eyes instantly turned into disappointment, and she looked at Qiao Anning again and again, as if she was trying to persuade her.
"Qiao Anning, are you happy to say such things to hurt the people closest to you?" Nie Yicheng looked at her angrily and said through gritted teeth.
Qiao Anning only thought it was ridiculous, every time they rushed to trouble her, but in the end it became her fault?
"Yes, I'm very happy, I don't know if Mr. Nie is still satisfied with this answer?" Qiao Anning raised his eyes coldly, and every word was extremely sarcastic.
Finding the impatience in Qiao Anning's eyes, Lu Sishen's expression suddenly turned cold, but his tone was extremely calm, "Mr. Nie, I don't want to see you trouble Anning again, besides, for the land in the east of the city, the Nie clan had better withdraw from the bidding as soon as possible." ”
After speaking, Lu Sishen took Qiao Anning and left.
Nie Yicheng's face instantly became extremely gloomy, Nie Clan had been preparing for three months to bid for that piece of land, if Lu Sishen intervened at this time, then their three months of hard work would be in vain.
Thinking of this, Nie Yicheng looked at the figures of the two gradually moving away with gloomy eyes, and his hands were clenched into fists because of anger.
"Yicheng, I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, Mr. Lu wouldn't have embarrassed you." Qiao Xuewei looked at him with guilt in her eyes, looking very annoyed and sad.
Nie Yicheng touched her face and comforted: "Xue Wei, it has nothing to do with you, if you want to blame Qiao Anning, if it weren't for her, Lu Sishen wouldn't have planned to grab the land in the east of the city with the Nie clan in order to get angry with her." ”
Qiao Xuewei bit her lower lip and frowned and said: "When I go up, I'll go and ask my father to help you, I don't believe that Qiao's and Nie's combined, they can't compare to an N&H!" In order to bid for that piece of land, you don't know how many nights you have stayed up in the past few months, and your whole person has lost weight, I will definitely help you win that piece of land! ”
Hearing Qiao Xuewei say this, Nie Yicheng felt very satisfied, reached out and scratched her nose, and said with a smile: "No need, if you want to say it, I also told Uncle Qiao, you go and beg Uncle Qiao, won't I become a soft eater?" ”
Qiao Xuewei's mouth curled, and she whispered: "Anyway, when we get married in the future, Qiao's and Nie's will not be one." ”
Nie Yicheng couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and said helplessly: "How can it be one, have you forgotten An Lan?" In the future, he will inherit Qiao's family. ”
Qiao Xuewei didn't speak again, bowed her head to hide the greed and calculation in her eyes.
Qiao's can only be hers alone!
