115. Saving you is just by the way
I didn't see how embarrassing it was, but as soon as the atmosphere was quiet, the thoughts in my mind turned uncontrollably to that time, Lin Miao's eyes fell on a certain place and asked in a quiet voice: "Do you remember what woke you up last night?" ”
He paused, then replied, "Hmm." ”
"I told you to wait for me where you were, why did you go downstairs alone?"
He didn't answer immediately, and she didn't urge, just waiting. After a long while, I heard him whisper: "I don't know why, but when you walk away, you smell the smoke and see the fire, and your mind becomes blurred, and a voice in my head says to me over and over again, 'Go out', and I can't help but go downstairs, but when I get downstairs, I see the fire rushing to my face, and the burning and burning pain occupy my nerves, so I instinctively shrink into a ball and hide." ”
Lin Miao listened to him, her heart was boiling. It turned out to be different from what she thought, she thought that finding Lu Mian who was cowering and trembling at the bottom was because he was afraid of being haunted by nightmares, but in fact, it was actually a way for him to protect himself. Did he do the same thing when he was in the fire? But the fire ten years ago was deliberate, and it didn't leave him a chance at all, so those burns and burning pains were real feelings after being burned, so that today the scene reappeared, and the nightmare haunted his mind was messed up.
"And you," she asked after a pause, "how did you come to your senses?" ”
Hearing her question, her dark eyes stared at her, her eyes burning, "I heard a voice calling me Ah Mian, and she told me that she would definitely take me out." ”
"That's it?"
He nodded with great certainty: "That's it." "His eyes are clear, his eyes are quiet, and this is when Lin Miao has seen him most seriously.
I was thinking about the wording in my heart, and I was still hesitating in my mind, but I couldn't help but blurt out in my mouth: "I once knew a person who was not as lucky as you, and was swallowed up by the sea of fire, even if I exhausted everything and failed to see him come out." ”
He frowned when he heard this, "Then did he survive?" ”
The eyes of the two were close at hand, and finally, Lin Miao closed his eyes and said, "He's dead." ”
Because my eyes were closed, I missed the light that flashed in those dark eyes. The back of his hand was covered by a warm palm, and his low voice pressed against his eardrums: "That's why you're desperate to save me, right?" ”
His body trembled, and he broke away from his hand in the next second, "No, I just saved you by the way." He dropped this sentence and turned away, this time she walked too fast, even if he wanted to stop him, he was a beat slower, and could only watch her walk out of sight.
Staring at the door, which had long since disappeared, the dark eyes turned back, and the gloom gradually floated.
This time it was indeed he who miscalculated.
In fact, most of what he told her was true, and he did not pay attention to the gauze on his feet when he took a bath and got wet directly, and he uncovered the gauze and threw it away when he was uncomfortable, and he was going to go out to re-bandage it after taking a shower, but he slipped out of the shower and slipped under his feet.
Originally, he was dealing with it with a cotton ball, but halfway through the process, he looked at the closed door above, and suddenly had other ideas. It would be difficult to break her defenses without using some means against her, and although she had agreed to let him stay, she still erected a hard wall between him and her, and it took a little catalyst to tear down this wall.
Although it hurt when she opened the wound, it was bearable, and it was nothing compared to the pain of being lonely every night after losing her all these years. She must not have known how excited he was when he heard that she had returned to China, when he was in New York to talk to people about a collaborative project, and left the client to return to China just to hear her voice.
It's not that she can't chase Australia, France, or any country she has been to, but what separates them is not a country, but a past that is difficult to return. chased him, and with her character, she could force him to let go.
Just give himself an excuse, but if she comes back, it means that he can do something to her.
So compared to the torment of years of waiting, the pain of a little skin trauma is nothing, as long as you can achieve your goal, it doesn't hurt to be ruthless to yourself. The wound is torn, bleeding, and even has a high fever due to inflammation, he has calculated it, betting that she will go downstairs at night, even if she doesn't go downstairs, it doesn't matter, she will find out when she gets up in the morning when she goes to work, but he only didn't count the downstairs fire!
The so-called plan can't catch up with the change, that's it, although she was weak when she woke up, she also knew that the situation was serious. But he underestimated his fear of fire, ten years have passed, the nightmare in his heart is still not gone, once she leaves the side of the mind can no longer maintain lucidity, even how he walked downstairs and shrunk in that corner I don't know, the residual consciousness was awakened by her, only to hear her call him "Ah Mian", a warm heat from the heart flooded, and reason gradually returned.
At that time, even if he was afraid of the fire, but she was by her side, he couldn't let her have the slightest thing.
Thinking that she deliberately said with a cold face just now that she was just saving him by the way, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, and she was clearly duplicitous. Even though the fear of fire made him delirious, her nervousness and anxiety were evident before his eyes.
Stretched out his hand and touched his face lightly, but why is this woman becoming more and more violent, beating him when she was drowsy was to wake him up, and now she beats him as soon as her temper comes up, and this half of her face still feels rustling pain. Is it that he has been too weak lately and let her ride straight to the head? And wait, one by one, it will be recorded in the account first, and there will always be a time to get it back.
Ye Feifei saw the boss's smiling look when he entered the door, and couldn't help but shrink back, just about to retract the foot that was stretched in, the boss's eyes had already swept over, and then he scolded: "What are you doing trembling at the door?" In! ”
I had to resign myself to my fate, and as soon as I stood still, I heard the boss ask, "What happened to you to investigate?" ”
"It has been investigated, and there was an old lady in the house where the fire was burned, and she got up at night and was thirsty to boil water, but when she turned around, she forgot to go back to her room and went to sleep, and the fire on the stove kept burning until the water was dry and the kettle was boiling. That's how the fire started. ”
"Isn't there anyone else in her house?"
Ye Feifei said: "Yes, why not, it is precisely because of someone that the old lady did not die." After a moment of silence, he chased after him and asked, "Boss, do you suspect that this fire is not an accident?" ”
Lu Mian replied with a deep groan: "Whether it is accidental or man-made, I have to investigate clearly." ”
"But wouldn't it be a bit far-fetched to say artificial? The whole house of the residents on that floor was burned, and there was indeed an old lady, and there was really going for the boss, so it was faster to go directly downstairs on your floor, why bother to separate the floor? ”
Ye Feifei really felt that the possibility of "artificial" was not very large, but he heard the boss ask: "Is there a dead person in this fire?" ”
"No, I asked the police who investigated the cause of the fire, and there were no deaths."
"What about the wounded?"
"No one was injured except for the one that caught fire."
"That's not right!" Lu Mian narrowed his eyes slightly, "There are two more injured." ”
Ye Feifei's heart moved, "You and Lin Miao?" After the boss asked such questions, he also felt a little unusual, but ......, "Could it be a coincidence?"
I only heard the boss sneer, but the light in his eyes was cold, "I didn't believe in coincidences in this world a long time ago. ”
Ye Feifei wanted to speak and stopped, and was glanced at by the boss, "If you have something to say, don't swallow it." He immediately shook his head: "No, no, I don't have anything to say." ”
A cold snort, "When I don't know your mind, do you think that the fire was still set by me?" ”
Ye Feifei smiled embarrassedly: "Hehe, what's the matter." ”
"Your brain spins fast, but it's all useless stuff. Even if I want to get her back, why do I need to use such a bad trick as arson? Even if it really works, if I want to put it on fire, I will set it on fire in my own house, as for setting fire to someone else's house? ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard the boss's tone suddenly weaken, and even coughed twice before saying, "You don't need to say it anymore, I said a long time ago that I am not the person you are looking for." ”
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and when he turned his head, he saw Lin Miao appear outside the door, and suddenly understood the reason for the boss's sudden change in momentum. I was slightly worried in my heart, but don't let the conversation just now be overheard by Lin Miao, it will be troublesome if the boss's plan is broken.
hurriedly took two steps forward to say something to test it: "Lao Lin, that ......" But before he finished speaking, he saw Lin Miao throw something to the ground, and turned around and left. Subconsciously wanted to chase after him, but suddenly felt that he was chasing a little nondescript, and he shouldn't be chasing it, turning his head to look back, he saw that the boss's face was pale, his heart sank, and he immediately said: "That...... I'll go see Lao Chen's side. He was about to walk out quickly, but before he reached the door, he was stopped by a drink: "You stop me!" Ye Feifei showed grief, why is he the one who suffers every time?
But he heard the boss's cool voice and ordered: "You can find an apartment with a good environment." ”
Ye Feifei was overjoyed when he heard this, it turned out that he was not looking for him to settle accounts, "Are you going to buy the apartment again?" Boss, if you buy a house everywhere, you still have to find someone to play the landlord, are you tired? ”
"Okay, you don't need to buy it, just requisition your house."
"Huh? My set? If it doesn't work, my family is still living in it. Boss, don't worry, I'll go find you a suitable house and ensure that your family Lin Xiaoniu is satisfied. Hurriedly dropped a few words, quickly turned around and left, and waited until the vision of the ward slowed down, the boss had already revealed Lin Miao's thoughts, why was she indifferent like a stone?
Thinking about the look of the one just now, and then thinking about the boss's iron-blue face, he couldn't help but tremble, let's hurry up and find a house, lest one day the two turn their faces and blame him again, he doesn't want to go to some wild place to open a company.
Lu Mian's eyes fell on the ground at the door, and he wanted to turn over and get off the ground, but when he saw that there was still a needle on his arm, he frowned and pulled out the needle directly. Walked to the door and squatted down, just now when she came over with a bag in her hand, but when she saw Extraordinary talking to him, she suddenly moved and threw things away, it turned out that she had just left to buy food for him.
But why did she become so violent with such a temper? A good bowl of porridge was knocked over.
Picked up the takeaway box and sat back on the edge of the bed, and slowly drank the rest of the porridge, which was just warm, which was the taste he liked.
The corners of his mouth twitched.
Miaomiao, it doesn't matter if you hear it or not, the important thing is that you have stepped into this chessboard, and you can't finish this game of chess if you don't want to finish it.
But he categorically didn't expect that Lin Miao would leave without saying a word.
At that time, he was still in the hospital thinking about whether to continue to pretend to be sick or leave the hospital early to find her, thinking that she would come back later, but Chen Bin called and said that she had returned to the imperial capital on the same day that she turned around and left, and then took a flight to Australia.
At that moment, he slammed the phone on the ground, but picked it up again after a few seconds, dialed Ye Feifei's phone and roared: "I want to break off her marriage immediately!" ”
——
Lin Miao's marriage is naturally impossible to break off, and she is in a hurry to return to Australia, not because of anything else, but because of a phone call from her husband.
His name is Sheng Xu.
Lin Miao pushed open the door of the conference room without hesitation, and the department managers in the room all turned their heads, and the man sitting in the main seat also rolled his eyes when he heard the sound. Those eyes seemed to be as quiet as the water of an ancient well pool, and they slowly stopped on Lin Miao's body, and her voice as light as flowing water fluttered in the conference room: "You're back." ”
When Lin Miao looked around at the people in the room, he heard Sheng Xu say lightly: "Let's get here here today, and the meeting will be dismissed." ”
So they all left, and soon there were only the two of them left in the room. Lin Miao walked to the end of the long table and sat down, looking at him at a distance of a few meters, and after a while, Lin Miao let out a low laugh and broke the silence.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Tell me, what did you do by making that lie and tricking me into coming back?"
Sheng Xu lowered his eyes, his gaze fell lightly on the table, "Who said it was a lie?" ”
"You're still going to lie to me? I've already called my sister, and my sister said it's okay. What's the matter, your company is about to collapse, and you have to ask me to come back and help you take over? ”
Sheng Xu smiled when he heard this, "The company doesn't bother you, I can do it alone." ”
"In that case, it's fine, I'm leaving." Lin Miao got up and left, but he didn't see him stop him, pursed the corners of his lips and strode away, and when the door of the conference room opened, he suddenly said lightly behind him: "Ah Miao, in fact, it was your sister who lied to you." ”
