Chapter 45: The Secret of Exchange
The light smile has evolved from an empathetic etiquette smile to a half-dead bitter gourd face, looking at the beauty in front of him who is sipping coffee beautifully.
Wow, what kind of strange woman is this, after breakfast, do you continue to dry her like a fish?!
No, I'm about to faint from hunger, oh lord, help me! I'm going to die!
As long as you let this dead woman, bah, let Xia Ruyan speak, and agree to my request, I will give it all I have......
Just as she closed her eyes and prayed silently in her heart, what she was looking forward to finally happened?!
"Miss Qian, I have carefully considered what you just did."
Well? Light smile's eyes widened incredulously, "So, your decision?" ”
"I promise." Xia Ruyan said lightly, as if this matter was not much of a deal.
"Really?!"
Wow, thank you so much!
The face of the light smile was a little stiff because of overhunger, and he couldn't laugh for a while, but his heart was already boiling like fire.
"Hmm."
Yes!
Just as he was about to express his gratitude with a cheerful smile like the sun shining now, another cool breeze suddenly blew through his messy hair.
"But I have one condition, if you agree, I'll let you live here with that man for a month."
O()〈))o Alas, Lord, you have helped me, and now it is time for me to fulfill my promise.
"Okay, you can say it. As long as it does not violate morality and ethics, and it is not JY kidnapping, robbery, abduction, etc., which harms society and will be imprisoned in that terrible place, I will unconditionally agree. ”
"Hehe, Miss Qian, you really know how to laugh." Xia Ruyan finally kept the cup of coffee on his lips, and looked at the shallow smile sitting opposite him with a strange expression that he didn't know whether to smile or not, and a copy should be innocent, with two lumps of thick blue circles hanging under his eyes.
"Say whatever you want, I feel from the bottom of my heart that Miss Xia is a kind and beautiful person, so she must not be the kind of person who will embarrass her peers."
"Of course not, a gift should be equivalent to its corresponding value, so," Xia Ruyan raised her thin eyebrows, her jade fingers lightly tapped the table a few times, and then said with a smile, "Congratulations to Miss Qian, welcome to my family's team of maids, I believe that with Miss Qian's sharp expression and unfathomable hands-on ability, it will definitely add some unique novelty to my mediocre team." ”
Alas, what is the mouth cheap, what's the use of saying all that?!
Xiaoxiao now wants to give herself a few big slaps called knowing people and knowing faces.
"Okay, let's start now, but I have two conditions before I start."
The old lady is not a vegetarian, and the reason why she agreed to Xia Ruyan's "harsh" condition was all for Xingang's recovery.
In addition to saving people, serving the wounded and the poor, and Quanbo, she has never beaten anyone else.
One is none of her business, and the other is to do her!
Therefore, this condition seems simple, but the xenophobia that I have accumulated for many years has also been reminding me that I must not take the bait in such a hurry.
That is to say, to die is to die with understanding and to die well.
"Please." Xia Ruyan was still a little indifferent just now, and after smiling lightly and saying that he wanted to put forward the conditions, he became more serious in an instant.
"First, you must keep the seriously injured man in that room and not ordered him to leave."
"Okay, I promise."
"Second ......" shallow smile frowned, muttering resentfully, "Let me eat first." ”
"If there's something in the fridge, look at it yourself"
Without hesitation, she picked up the dirty plate in front of her and put it on her wrist skillfully, "Do you still want coffee?" ”
"No need, you can clean up too."
"Okay."
Looking at the light smile and neat movements, Xia Ruyan snorted lightly, and then clasped his hands around his chest.
Qian Haoran, a jackal who is one in a million, actually raised such an incredible daughter, which is really impressive!
She can't wait to see how Qianxiao "picks up".
Just as Qianxiao pulled the door of the hall with one hand, he suddenly remembered something, and quickly turned around and shouted to Xia Ruyan in the distance, "I have a third condition." ”
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The empty second-floor hallway echoed with the sound of a cautious door slamming.
Oh, strange, face him? Why are you so reserved? Isn't it all in the past? Haven't you been letting go for a long time?
Xia Ruyan couldn't help but shake her head with a funny sigh, took a cup of warm water and a box of cotton swabs in her hand and walked directly into the door.
It wasn't until she saw the person lying on the bed that she realized that she felt a little scared and trembling after all these years of calm and carefree.
Stunned, he put the things in his hand on the bedside table, sat silently on the edge of the bed, and looked at the good-looking man in front of him.
Fingers crept over the dense bangs on the forehead, then the thin fingertips stroked the bridge of the tall and heroic nose, and then the familiar soft lips.
It's just that because of the owner's injury, the peach-pink bright lips in the past memories look so pale and dry at the moment.
He took out a cotton swab and soaked it in warm water from the immersion cup, and gently tapped it on the parched and peely lips.
"Ahh Pain! The slender wrist was suddenly tightened, preventing her from continuing.
This voice is not that "neurotic"!
His eyes opened suddenly, and a familiar face was reflected in his sharp, defensive brown pupils.
"Like smoke?"
The domineering hand suddenly let go, and the surprise on his face lasted no more than three seconds, don't look over, and then closed his eyes again.
Xia Ruyan just smiled, not surprised at all, and her voice was soft, a little like a murmur, and a little like a coquette, "Long time no see, Xingang!" ”
The place where the gauze was covered with his hand was hard, and he quickly turned over with all his strength, and although he was already careful, the already painful area became more painful as if it had been torn.
The back is as usual, but hidden behind the back is a face that sweats in pain, frowns and endures the pain.
He could bear the pain, but he wasn't interested in that face at all.
"I know you don't want to see me, but in this situation, can you not be angry with me and lie down obediently?"
How could Xia Ruyan not know that he was in pain? It's not like she hasn't experienced it.
I just had surgery, and if I move it casually, it will affect the wound, and it will be strange if it doesn't hurt!
"I said with a light smile, you can't eat and drink for the first three days now, if you are uncomfortable, you have to endure it," Xia Ruyan took the wet cotton swab in his hand and picked up the water cup, quickly detoured to the other end of the bed, sat directly in front of his eyes, continued to dip the cotton swab in water, and gently touched his lips, "In this way, your mouth will not peel, if you are really thirsty, you can only drink a little water." ”
Xingang did not resist this time, but obediently let it be disposed of, his eyes were still closed, and he still chose to ignore the person in front of him.
Xia Ruyan didn't think that Xingang would pay attention to her or talk to her well, in her memory, this person is an iceberg, and she will always have to accommodate him.
On the contrary, if he is unhappy, the most he can give is just a warm and firm chest, and more silence.
After the lips on his mouth became moister, Xia Ruyan stopped moving, and Xingang spoke.
"What about that person?"
"Who?" Although Xia Ruyan felt that he was asking knowingly, he still wanted to hear him say that name in person.
“……”
It's a pity that people are not fooled?!
What awaited was an unexpected silence.
Heh, he's still the same, and she's gone.
Xia Ruyan walked to the balcony a little heavily, felt the fragrance in the air, and looked down, but saw a good scene.
Light smile has changed into a gray slave outfit, although she has always been grinning and thinks she is super adaptable, but ......
The stinky mouth of "Frozen Man" is a prophetic emperor at some moments.
That's right, she is now like a miserable maid living in a brain-dead drama, pushing a lawn mower to silently clean up the lush lawn, and no one cares, very pitiful!
"I didn't expect that you would really accept her conditions?"
As if you heard some ethereal echo in the distance?
"Huh? No one? ”
He looked suspiciously for a long time, but didn't see anyone, so he shook his head in annoyance.
Really, what's going on today?
Lord, you won't be joking with me anymore.
You're either going to show up and play with me, or you're going to leave me alone to do it all silently, amen.
Just as he wanted to continue to work hard, his left shoulder was suddenly tapped again.
As soon as he turned around, he saw a man with a scar on his face smiling at him.
"Shuzen, did you hear anyone speak just now?" With a light smile, he looked nervously at Shucen as he pushed the machine forward, and Shucen followed step by step.
"It's me, I'm calling you, I'm sorry."
"You really should apologize, you don't even see a doctor, do you?" Light smile blamed Shucen angrily.
In fact, as soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it extremely.
First, she smiled lightly and Shucen had just met, and second, she was not close to him, so why did she suddenly blame someone, it was inexplicable.
"Heh, why don't you think so much, the facts have been established, just let it go." Shucen was not annoyed by the big grin of the light smile, but when he was asked this question, he suddenly paused in his heart.
Because of this question, no one has ever asked him.
"In a few days, Dr. Zhufeng will come over and help Xingang remove the stitches, and then I will ask him to help you look at your throat, even if it is broken, you have to maintain it."
Shucen stopped at this moment and did not follow the smile forward.
"Alas, I'll tell you......" When he turned around and saw that there was no one around, he stopped, turned around and looked for it, and found that a certain big man in a black suit was inexplicably "standing" there like a stone pillar, not moving at all.
"What are you doing standing there? When a solar receiver? Hurry up! I'm not done yet! ”
……
"I really think it's funny to laugh at this person, even Shucen, who has always been steady and sleek, seems to have been a little uncomfortable with her?"
Xia Ruyan said with a wry smile, calmly staring at the two people below who were like playing at home.
One person waved his hand vigorously, as if to make the person behind him hurry over.
It's a pity that the people standing behind him only know how to stand hard, and they don't mean to move forward at all.
If Xia Ruyan turned around at this moment, maybe she could still see that the person behind her was flashing with a pair of good-looking brown eyes.
