Chapter 14: When He Was Gentle
"How is she?" Seeing the private doctor put away the stethoscope, the man who had been sitting next to her bed asked.
"It's okay, it's just that I'm too nervous, and I've been hungry for too long, and I will faint with low blood sugar, give her some glucose water, and wake up and keep it alive again."
"Thank you!"
The male doctor smiled on his handsome face and teased, "This is the second time I've heard you say 'thank you' to me, both times because of the same girl." ”
"She means so much to me."
The male doctor was a little puzzled: "With all due respect, since you care about her so much, why don't you treat her as your true face?" ”
He was silent, his angular face clouded with pain and remorse.
After a long time, he whispered, "Now is not the time. ”
"When will that be?"
The man did not answer.
The male doctor couldn't wait for an answer, found him boring, left a jar of instant glucose and left.
The man took the glucose and left for a while, and when he returned to the room where Tao Yao was lying, the upper half of his face was obscured by a mask of exquisite white jade and black bricks, and he held a cup of steaming grape water in his hand.
At this time, Tao Xiaoxiao had woken up, and saw the man walking towards her, she saw that his figure was extremely familiar, and the aura around him was also very familiar, thinking of those tortured nights, fear suddenly arose in her heart, and her body couldn't help but move to the inside of the bed.
He placed the cup on the bedside table, then sat on the edge of her bed and held out his slender, white hand towards her.
She cowered back in, not allowing him to touch herself.
"You're afraid of me?" His eyes darkened under his mask, and his voice seemed to have a heart-rending pain, "I'm sorry, I was late and hurt you, I promise that there will never be a next time for such a thing!" ”
His voice was deep and magnetic, and it made her even more sure that he was the man, the man who tortured her in the dark, threatened her, and then showed up to save her at the critical moment.
He finally appeared in the light, but with a mask on his face.
"Don't worry, as long as you don't violate our agreement, my promise to you is still valid, and besides, I will be responsible for your safety in the future. As for the mask, when the time comes, I'll let you see me for what I really am. His eyes seemed to penetrate people's hearts, and he saw through her confirmation of his identity and suspicion of him, so he used words to dispel her doubts.
"Girl, come here, your body is too weak, drink some glucose water to replenish your strength first." He spoke in as gentle a tone as possible.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally crawled out of the bed and took the glass of water from him.
The corners of the man's mouth raised slightly, revealing a satisfied smile: "I'll go and prepare something for you, wait a minute." ”
When he left, Tao Xiaoyao was still stunned on the spot.
She had only felt his tyranny, his indifference, and his lack of security, but she had never seen him so tender.
In the past, he gave her the feeling of cold Satan from hell, but Fang Cai's gentle smile was better than the warmth of thousands of rays of sunshine piercing the darkness.
This feeling made her feel inexplicably reassured.
She slowly drank the glucose water in the cup, only to feel that the water was unusually sweet.
After drinking the sugar water, she slowly regained her strength, and the symptoms of dizziness were gone, but she was even more hungry.
She waited for a long time and didn't see him come back, so she simply rolled over and got out of bed, but couldn't find her shoes, so she went out quietly barefoot.
