Chapter 70: A False Alarm
Dongting Building exploded, the Pei family quickly blocked the news, this matter was handled by Chengyu, in fact, the Pei family could have used this matter to stand at the forefront of public opinion again and take advantage of people's empathy, which is also very beneficial to the Pei family and Yuan Qian's career.
However, Yuan Qian ordered Chengyu to block the news, because the victim of this incident was Tao Tao, in fact, there were more important reasons, Yuan Qian didn't want to startle the snake, he wanted to find out the truth about his father's death.
Yuan Qian's crazy move in the East Courtyard Building was seen by Yunhe. The moment Tao Tao was shot, Mrs. Pei fainted in fright, and she could only be strong and calm, in fact, she was also fragile at this moment.
Yuan Qian's hoarse Tao Tao slammed into her chest like a boulder, making her unable to breathe. She saw that his eyes were red.
Yuan Qian, who has always been gentle, is not unable to lose his temper, and he has always been a gentleman and polite, not that he will not lose his temper, but that there is no one and nothing that can make him lose his temper. However, today, that man and that thing happened to him. At that moment, Yunhe knew that Tao Tao was Yuan Qian's bottom line.
She saw Yuan Qian holding Tao Tao into the car, and the car disappeared from her eyes like an arrow from the string. She was weak and wanted to find someone to rely on, but when she was unconscious, Mrs. Pei still had to rely on her to serve.
"Second young grandmother, I'll send you and your wife back."
Cheng Yu, the attendant next to him, personally drove them to the hospital, Mrs. Pei was just in a coma because of her emotional excitement, and when she woke up, she was thinking about Tao Tao, and she had to comfort her, fear, powerlessness, all of which she had to bear by herself.
She shivered with cold, and just wanted a pair of warm hands to give her a little warmth. It was Chengyu who saw her strangeness, "Second young grandmother, I'll call home and ask Mother Li to send you a piece of clothing." ”
She hugged herself and didn't respond, so Chengyu went to do it, and after a while, a nurse came and handed her a cup of hot water, "Are you okay?" Do you want to take a break? ”
She leaned against the wall and shook her head, tears rolling in her eyes. At this time, she also needed someone to comfort her, but she had to be strong.
Yuan Qian never appeared, she knew that Tao Tao was being rescued, she couldn't go, and she didn't want to see his decadent appearance.
The moment Mrs. Pei woke up, she was about to go to see Tao Tao, but she had to stop her, "Mother, Tao Tao is still being rescued...... Rest assured, she'll be fine. ”
Maybe there was a kind of resistance to the hospital, and after she woke up, she wanted to go back, and she had no one to discuss for a while, so she thought about going back with her again and again.
It was sent by Chengyu himself, she knew that he was Yuan Qian's right-hand man, and she also knew Yuan Qian's thoughts, he must know. In fact, even if she wanted to inquire about something, he wouldn't say it. However, she never gave up.
"Yuan Qian isn't injured, is he?"
"Back to the second young grandmother, the young master is not injured......
"Tao Tao ...... How's it going? She couldn't ask this kind of thing in front of Mrs. Pei, but when she arrived at Pei's house, she specially asked Chengyu to wait after serving Mrs. Pei to rest.
"It's not clear for the time being, the young master is also waiting for news."
"You know about this time in advance?"
"Second young grandmother, if you had known in advance, Miss wouldn't have been injured."
"Did Yuan Qian offend someone in Yudu?"
"How so? Although it is Liu Xiang's territory, it can be regarded as the jurisdiction of the Chu family, and if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, even if anyone really wants to do something to the eldest young master, they have to weigh it. Today's Events..... The young master will find out, so don't worry about the young grandmother. ”
He said it so seamlessly that she couldn't detect a single loophole.
"Young grandma, you're okay, I'm going to the hospital to see ......"
Yunhe nodded, "Tell the young master, I'll go to the hospital early tomorrow morning to see Tao Tao." ”
Seungwoo agreed and withdrew......
Yunhe only felt cold when he looked at this huge courtyard.......
Yuan Qian didn't close his eyes for a day and a night, but fortunately, Tao Tao was out of danger in the end, but because he had been in a coma, he couldn't leave an inch.
He held her hand softly, and his pale face was bloodless, and he remembered the slap again, and unconsciously felt distressed, how could he do it.
The pocket watch she was holding in her hand was given to her by him, and she was still angry at first, saying that she didn't like it, but it wasn't duplicity. Just like him......
He caressed her cheek, and finally he didn't have to worry so much about it, and he was satisfied with looking at her quietly. He couldn't imagine how he would have lived without her.
He has avoided and fought for it, but he still lost to reality in the end. Hide her heart in her heart, but the glimmer of expectation in her heart always crawls out and catches her off guard.
If it hadn't happened now, how would he have known that he cared about her beyond his control. He touched her head and tried to hold her in his arms.
He muttered, "Tao Tao ......" which he felt were two of the most beautiful words in the world. In the past, he disliked it in front of her, but in fact, it was because when he mentioned Tao Tao, he would always think of the word escape. Running away always makes people feel unlucky.
Only today did he understand what he was afraid of. It turned out that what he was worried about was that she would leave him one day. Losing her would be digging out his heart.
He didn't sleep all night, Tao Tao was out of danger again, he was relieved, but he still couldn't take it lightly, holding her hand and lying next to her to take a nap, but he still slept well......
The anesthetic of the wound passed, and Tao Tao was awakened by the pain. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Yuan Qian lying on the side of the bed. Her hand was clenched tightly by him, and she didn't dare to move, for fear of alarming him.
She endured the pain and looked at him quietly, and when he walked towards her, she saw the anxiety and indescribable emotion in his eyes. If time stood still at that moment, she would definitely be able to tell if it was what she expected but did not dare to expect.
Yuan Qian moved, she hurriedly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, but he just changed his position, his hand was still held by him, Tao Tao already felt numb, she wanted to sit up with her body and cover him with clothes, but the movement affected the wound, and she grinned in pain.
Yuan Qian still woke up, and just happened to see Tao Tao's painful convulsive face, he hurriedly got up, and said gently, "It hurts?" ”
Tao Tao nodded, his throat a little dry.
He walked over and covered her with the quilt. "Are you hungry?"
Tao Tao shook her head, in fact, she just wanted to see him, just look at him like that, and don't say anything.
"Then I'll go to the dean and let him come and see ....."
"Second brother......" Tao Tao suddenly stopped him.
"I ...... It hurts,......," she clutched to her chest.
Yuan Qian turned around, "Can you hold back?" As he spoke, he walked up to her and grabbed her hand, "If you can't stand it, just say it." ”
"Second brother......" Tao Tao looked at him with a haggard look and stubble, and felt uncomfortable.
"I'm fine."
"You...... It freaks the hell out of me. He stroked her hair, "Fortunately...... It's a false alarm. ”
"I'm sorry......" she lowered her head, her voice weak.
"It's not your fault...... It was the second brother who failed to protect you. ”
"By the way....." Tao Tao seemed to think of something, she glanced around and began to get anxious, "Where's my pocket watch?" ”
"You went back to find the watch?"
"Yes....." Tao Tao didn't care about the pain of the wound at this time, and began to rummage on the bed, and touched the pillow again, "Where are my clothes?" ”
"Tao Tao ......" Yuan Qian stopped her, "is this it......" he took out the watch from his arms.
"Yes...... Great, fortunately I didn't lose it. ”
"Why do you care so much about this watch?"
"Because you sent it......" Tao Tao lowered his head and blurted out as he checked that the pocket watch was intact. When she realized what she had said, she raised her head, and Yuan Qian was also looking at her. His eyes were so complicated that she couldn't read them for a while, and she couldn't speak nervously while holding her pocket watch.
"Fool ......" After a moment of silence, he gently rubbed her hair.
She could only let him go, because she was afraid that her nervous emotions would reveal the panic in her heart.
"Tao Tao ...... The second brother wants to apologize to you, that slap...... I'm sorry. ”
He apologized after all, although it was a little late, and she waited a little long, but such a sentence of sorry still made her feel a little comforted.
"It really hurts ......"
"Then I'll call a doctor."
"I'm talking about this." Tao Tao pointed to his cheek.
Yuan Qian realized that he was teased by him, so he laughed, "Do you want to fight back?" ”
"I'll definitely come back next time."
"How can there be a next time?" This time was enough, he couldn't do anything to her again. I will be reluctant.
The laughter of the two people spread outside the ward, Yunhe had been here for a while, and she didn't come in because she heard the conversation between the two, in fact, she didn't mean to listen, but she couldn't bear to disturb.
Such Yuan Qian and Tao Tao, she has never seen it, or how Yuan Qian has accommodated other women, and because of Tao Tao, he has repeatedly retreated, and she can feel that distress from his words.
Originally, they had already said that they would start over, but the moment she saw Yuan Qian's eyes red for Tao Tao, she knew that what they said was not counted.
At this moment, she realized jealousy, she was jealous of Tao Tao. Jealous of Yuan Qian's affection for Tao Tao. She sacrificed too much for him, and even did not hesitate to turn her face with her family, but in exchange for betrayal.
Is it a betrayal? Or did she step in? Why did they meet so late? If she had taken a step earlier, she would have the confidence to get Yuan Qian's heart. But now, not only has she lost her confidence, but she doesn't even have the courage to enter this ward.
If it weren't for the doctor's rounds, she probably wouldn't have come in, so she quickly sorted out her emotions and followed the doctor into the ward.
Yuan Qian gave up his position and nodded at her, she smiled slightly, both to Tao Tao and to him......
