In the left-turn toilet on the third floor of the hospital, the corridor has no windows and no light, and the lights are on at all times, reflecting the white walls and floor.
Pei Tong stood in place in a long skirt that looked like water, five meters away from the man in front of him, his delicate and stunning face was in a trance for a long time, he didn't expect to meet here......
Her slender fingers clenched the diagnosis slip, crumpled.
A few years later, the first time the two met was like a countdown to death, passing minute by minute to see who couldn't survive first.
For a long time, Pei Tong pulled the corners of his slightly stiff lips, his eyebrows and eyes were still clear and charming, he wanted to say something, but he looked at him with thick dark eyes, and couldn't say a word.
Huo Xiucheng stared at her clean and flawless face, his eyes were a little deeper, and his unwavering tone overflowed his thin lips: "Pei Xuemei, do you still recognize me?" โ
"Yes, yes."
Pei Tong smiled slightly, but there was red in the corners of his eyes: "Senior Huo." โ
Huo Xiucheng listened to her warm and soft tone, a faint smile appeared in her dark eyes, and the voice spit out from her thin lips gradually became gentle: "Shall I send you home?" โ
In my memory, when he was young, he had a perpetual personality, and he would have a bit of hostility towards strangers, but he could always show a little seductive tenderness in front of her.
It's easy to give people the illusion that they will be pampered by him.
Pei Tong's fine eyelashes drooped, and some inexplicable tastes came to her heart, and she refused softly: "No need senior, I made an appointment with my friend to go shopping." โ
Huo Xiucheng's eyes were tight, but he didn't show anything unusual on the surface, in front of her, his dark and suffocating aura had already been wiped out.

Jiang Yansheng paid the fee and came back, but he didn't find Huo Xiucheng and his bodyguard Que Ye, so he said to Li Xin: "He should have left first." โ
Li Xin lowered his eyebrows and hooked his red lips: "Next time, I will have the opportunity to thank you in person." โ
Jiang Yansheng didn't carefully decompose the meaning of this sentence, helped her sit down on a chair in the corridor, and asked softly, "Do you have any friends in Wancheng?" โ
Li Xin raised his lowered warm eyes and said, "No." โ
Jiang Yansheng frowned, and asked again: "There are no colleagues in the company who have better friendships?" โ
"Secretary Li, who often gives me a black form in front of Mr. Huo, counts?" Li Xin spoke with a hint of joking.
"Secretary Li, forget it." Jiang Yansheng was afraid that the wound on her forehead would become inflamed and feverish at night, and there was no female friend around her to take care of her, so she was not very relieved.
She thought for a while and said, "You go back to Dujingyuan with me to recuperate, have a good rest tonight, and don't think about work." โ
Li Xin was used to coming to Wancheng to work alone, and she didn't accept Jiang Yansheng's kindness: "Madam, I'm not so delicate." โ
She was reluctant to go to her boss's house to recuperate, even if Jiang Yansheng repeatedly proposed, she still insisted on returning to her residence.
In the end, Jiang Yansheng couldn't help it.
She called Secretary Li to pick up someone and send Li Xin back first.

Under the dark sky.
Li Xin walked alone on the street lamp street, the buildings where she lived were scattered, Secretary Li's car couldn't drive in, so she had to park at the bus stop, and the rest of the way she went back by herself in the alley, which was only two minutes away.
Li Xin looked at the brightly lit households, his throat was inexplicably like he was choked by something, and he was a little uncomfortable and breathless, and on his forehead, after the anesthetic gradually subsided, the pain began to come.
She walked for a while, drowsy and a little weak, and almost fell to the ground, so she simply put on a professional suit and skirt and sat down by the roadside flower garden, her fingertips against her eyebrows.
The night in early autumn is very cool, and it will be cold on people's skin, but Li Xin was indifferent, and stayed quietly for a long time until the mobile phone in the bag rang.
She took it out, and her tone was rarely weak: "Hey? โ
As soon as the phone was connected, Daddy Li began to ask for money: "Big girl, when will your salary be paid this month, the family wants to buy a cow and plow the land without money." โ
Every month, before the salary is paid on the 10th, the Li family begins to worry about Li Xin's salary.
"Dad, I'll call you when the salary is paid." Li Xin endured the pain in his forehead, trying not to make his tone sound so impatient.
But Daddy Li nagged dissatisfiedly: "Can't you let your boss pay your salary early?" Your grandmother broke her leg two days ago, and it took a lot of money to go to the town to find a doctor, and Wuya took the first place in the exam, shouting that the eldest sister would buy a new dress to wear. โ
This sum of money was spent on by Daddy Li and his daughter, and in the end, he said it: "Big girl, you give Daddy an extra thousand yuan this month!" Got it. โ
Li Xin pursed her pale lips and overflowed with one word: "Hmm." โ
Daddy Li grinned over there, begged for money, and nagged a few more words: "The village said that my old man Li burned high incense for eight lifetimes to raise such a good daughter as you, big girl, you make good money outside, it doesn't matter if you are old, in the future, Dad will find you a good family with a car in the town to marry." โ
Li Xin has heard this kind of verbal assurance of her daughter's happiness in the past 20 years, and her heart has slowly changed from panic to calm.
She raised her head, looked at the dark night with desireless eyes, and smiled palely: "Dad, I'm still busy working overtime." โ
"Still working overtime so late? Does the boss give you money? โ
In Daddy Li's concept of time, eight or nine o'clock is already midnight, especially in the mountain villages in poor and remote areas, and the rest is even earlier.
"Given, 10 yuan an hour."
Li Xin said casually, and Father Li believed it: "Don't say it, don't say it, big girl, remember to call the money." โ
From the end of the call, Li Xin didn't hear a word of concern, her frozen fingers slowly let go of the phone, and the pain in her palm for a long time was unaware.

Dujing Garden.
Back at the villa, Jiang Yansheng carried her skirt upstairs, and when she looked up, she saw Huo Xiumo's tall figure leaning in front of the bedroom door, and her deep eyes swept her up and down first.
Finally, there was a sudden slam on her chest, which was stained with a few drops of blood.
"This is Li Xin's, she was smashed in the head by Jiang Siwei, and she suffered this crime for me."
Huo Xiumo's expression was very indifferent, his big hand was copied out of his trouser pocket, he grabbed the woman's slender wrist and dragged it to his side, and his voice was deep: "It seems that every minute and second you leave under your nose, you will have to make something, don't leave my sight in the future." โ
Jiang Yan is smart and will not argue with him about this matter, and talks about another thing: "This time it was your cousin who helped me, and I met him." โ
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Huo Xiumo's deep dark eyes, and asked the doubts in her heart: "You look exactly the same, but your cousin and your father are only four or five points alike?" โ
