When he was in love, he called her affectionately: "Xiaoping, Ping'er, A-Ping......" He had 10,000 ways to call her by name, each of which sweetly made her get goosebumps while falling into it.

When she was young, she was happy but made a proud gesture: "Your name is so earthy." ”

But now she expects him to call her again......

"Are you alright?"

Xia Baiping's heart fell hard, like a hole, and the cold wind poured into it vigorously.

Zheng Fan carefully worded: "Xiao Zhang is still a child, it is inevitable that he will be irrational and say some inappropriate things, you, don't worry about her." ”

Xia Baiping's face was calm, and her expression did not move at all.

"It's getting late, it's cold by the window, I'll get you a dress."

Zheng Fan took off a coat from the hanger and draped it over Xia Baiping's shoulders.

He imagined that Xia Baiping would not respond, so it was fine, it would be good if there was no quarrel.

Zheng Fan dressed Xia Baiping and planned to retreat.

Xia Baiping turned her head suddenly, tears streaming down her face, and she made a sharp voice, like a high note bursting out of her throat. It's a pity that this is not the beautiful singing of a soprano musician, but the scream of madness.

"You call me by name!"

When Zhang Nanyan heard the voice, she rushed out without putting down the plate.

She saw Xia Baiping clutching Zheng Fan's hand, she was too hard, her fingers were pale and terrifying, but the tips of her fingers turned purple and red. Her nails dug into Zheng Fan's flesh, and from such a distance, Zhang Nanyan could see the deep depression on the back of Professor Zheng's hand.

Zhang Nanyan was nervous for a while, and shouted: "What are you doing......

Zheng Fan stretched out his other hand, waved it at Zhang Nanyan, and then gently landed on Xia Baiping's shoulder.

He patted her on the back gently, while reassuring her: "Relax, don't get excited." ”

Xia Baiping stared at Zheng Fan, her eyes were very complicated, one moment full of resentment and the other full of pleading: "You call my name!" ”

"Bai Ping, you relax, you have something to say slowly."

Xia Baiping suddenly became indifferent, tears were still falling from her eyes, and her eyes had become cold.

She sneered, stared at Zheng Fan, and asked, "Do you think I'm crazy?" ”

Zheng Fan gently comforted her: "You calm down first, let's talk slowly if you have something to say." ”

Zhang Nanyan saw that Xia Baiping's nails were getting harder and harder, and blood was already flowing out of the back of Zheng Fan's hand.

Zhang Nanyan hurriedly said: "Madam, it's all my fault, you dissipate your anger, even if you are angry, you will shoot at me, don't hurt Professor Zheng." ”

Xia Baiping turned her head, looked at Zhang Nanyan, and asked again: "Do you think I'm crazy?"

"Don't be impulsive, Professor Zheng's hands are bleeding."

Xia Baiping looked at Zheng Fan again and said, "Can you call my name once?" “

Zheng Fan paused for a moment, how could he not feel distressed in the face of his wife, who was already unconscious, except for worrying, he called her gently: "Bai Ping, be obedient, don't hurt yourself." “

Disappointment flashed in Xia Baiping's eyes, but she saw the pity in Zheng Fan's eyes.

Xia Baiping said in a trance: "We're okay, okay?" ”

Zheng Fan closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were full of tolerance, he squatted down, faced Xia Baiping, and said, "Okay, let's be fine." ”

Xia Baiping wept silently.

Zhang Nanyan breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the kitchen, and brought out the food.

Zheng Fan pushed Xia Baiping to sit at the table.

The two sat opposite each other.

"Xiao Zhang, please help Lao Zheng apply the medicine, his hand is injured." Xia Baiping looked at the back of Zheng Fan's hand with annoyance: "It's all my fault." ”

Zhang Nanyan hurriedly brought iodine wine and cotton swabs to help Zheng Fan's wound wipe the potion.

"Thank you. Let's sit down and eat together. Xia Baiping looked at her weakly.

"No, it's time for me to go." Zhang Nanyan resigned.

Unexpectedly, Xia Baiping opened her mouth to stay: "Let's eat together." I was in a bad temper before, and I apologized to you for being wronged. ”

Zhang Nanyan looked at Zheng Fan hesitantly.

Zheng Fan smiled at her: "Let's eat together." “

Zhang Nanyan finally nodded in agreement and sat down.

Zheng Fan said: "Today, we celebrate and wish a new beginning. “

Xia Baiping said: "We will be a family from now on. It's always called Xiao Zhang, it's too raw, let's change the name, you can call me aunt in the future, call me Uncle Zheng. ”

Zhang Nanyan was reluctant and didn't know how to refuse.

I only heard Zheng Fanlang laugh and said: "Just call us teacher, we will call you...... Little Swallow ......"

Zhang Nanyan thought that Xia Baiping had finally changed, but unfortunately, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Xia Baiping's nervousness caused her to lose her ability to control herself. She would suddenly get angry, be inexplicably depressed, be hysterical, and when the mood had passed, she would regret it and apologize.

Every day of life is repeated in such tension and depression.

Zheng Fan has to endure the violence that Xia Baiping doesn't know when he erupts, and then he has to face Xia Baiping's emotional breakdown, and he has to comfort her gently. No one cared about the harm he suffered.

Zhang Nanyan watched from the sidelines and couldn't help feeling distressed. She could only try her best to take care of Zheng Fan's life and help him share the pressure of taking care of Xia Baiping.

The days passed, and the winter vacation came.

During this time, Zhang Nanyan was busy with work and inevitably reduced her relationship with Lin Dong. The winter vacation has finally arrived, and Zhang Nanyan has long been ready and is looking forward to going home with Lin Dong.

She went to ask Zheng Fan for leave early.

Zheng Fan smiled and agreed: "Let's go home for the New Year, I haven't heard you say where your hometown is." ”

Zhang Nanyan's excited eyes darkened, and she said in a low voice: "I'm not going home, I don't have a home to go back to." “

Zheng Fan didn't ask, but continued to talk to her about other topics in a gentle and ordinary manner.

Zhang Nanyan is most afraid of the sympathetic eyes of others, and sympathy will make her feel humble and pitiful. Yes, she is poor and has nothing, all that is left is self-esteem and backbone!

She was grateful to Zheng Fan for his insipid attitude, and took the initiative to tell him that she was going to her boyfriend's house for the New Year, and was worried that her boyfriend's parents would not like her.

Zheng Fan listened carefully and asked rhetorically: "Why do you think they won't like you?" “

"I'm from a rural area, and I didn't go to college, so I don't deserve Brother Lin in terms of identity or diploma."

"If you are in such a state of mind, I suggest that you do not rush to meet his parents. In love, we pay attention to the 'right match', and the 'right match' I am talking about is not the matching of identity and status, but the equality of personality. You have to learn to treat yourself correctly, don't be arrogant, and when you have self-confidence, you can live your life without relying on the eyes of others. “

Hearing this, Zhang Nanyan was a little confused.

Zheng Fan smiled and said, "Of course, this is just my personal opinion. Reason is the most unreasonable, because different people will take different paths, where is the standard answer that can be applied everywhere. Well, have a good holiday and have a good year. ”

After that day, Zhang Nanyan seriously thought about Zheng Fan's words, she didn't fully understand, and she seemed to understand a little, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.

Just don't think about it for now, and concentrate on how to deal with Brother Lin's parents first.
