Chapter 56: Mo Xiaoya's Tragic Past
"Detective Ling...... Boss, why do you have such an expression when you mention Catwoman? Ye August asked cautiously, for fear that he would annoy Ling Heng by saying the wrong thing.
Ling Heng straightened his face again and asked in a cold voice, "What expression did I reveal?" Since you met me through her, do you know how Catwoman is doing now? ”
Ling Heng's reaction made Ye August very confused, "After she experienced that incident, didn't she go back to school?" She's a year younger than me, and she's graduating a year away, so we've been in touch lately. ”
"Oh?" Ling Heng let out a soft question.
His question made Ye August even more confused, "Boss, what do you mean by this?" ”
"It's okay, you need to rest, I'll go back first, and I'll come back to work when you're fully recovered!"
Ling Heng said, putting a bank card on the bedside table, "There is some money here, and the password is the last six digits of the card." ”
"Boss!" Ye August wanted to stop Ling Heng and return the card to him, but Ling Heng walked quickly, and Ling Heng disappeared at the door before she got out of bed.
Holding the bank card that Ling Heng gave her, Ye August's mood was very complicated.
"Actually, I'm fine right now." Ye August muttered to himself in a voice that he could only hear, and lifted the bandage that held his wrist, the bloody wound before had healed as if he had not been injured.
"In August, I bought you some delicious food, and the doctor said that you should avoid eating for three days, and you should eat something light for these days, and you can be discharged from the hospital after three days, but you must be careful, otherwise your wound will be easy to scar."
Mo Xiaoya carried the takeaway and walked in.
Ye August was facing away from her and sorting out the bandages that had just been lifted, "Sister Xiaoya, I thought you were gone, it's really troublesome for you." ”
"What's this, don't be polite to me! Hey, what about the boss? He's gone? Mo Xiaoya put things aside and helped Ye August set up the table.
"Let's get something to eat." Mo Xiaoya's concern made Ye August's heart very warm, and when she turned around, she couldn't help but show her a heartfelt smile of gratitude.
"Just now the boss said that I would go back to work after I recovered, and he also gave me a bank card." Ye August put the card on the table, but the smile on his face disappeared.
"Oh my God! Is this true? When did the boss become so generous? Can I give you a bank card? Mo Xiaoya picked up the bank card incredibly, looked at it carefully like a treasure, and after a while, she suddenly twisted her eyebrows, her expression was solemn and serious.
"That's not right! I don't believe the boss would be so generous, and I bet the balance on this card will never exceed three digits! ”
Ye August twitched the corner of his mouth, "Won't it?" The boss doesn't look like such a stingy person! ”
"Don't let his beauty fool you! To be honest with you, when I first met him, I thought his heart could be as beautiful as his appearance! I never thought that I had been being squeezed by him since I became his attendant! ”
Mo Xiaoya said with righteous indignation, as if Ling Heng was really a "Zhou Peel".
Ye August had no choice but to purse her lips helplessly, and then asked Mo Xiaoya the question that had always bothered her: "Sister Xiaoya, you have been by the boss's side for so many years, although the boss may have some shortcomings, but he is so good, have you never been interested in him?" ”
"What?"
Mo Xiaoya had just set up the dishes and chopsticks for Ye August, and after hearing her words, she almost knocked over the bowl.
Mo Xiaoya's big reaction instantly made Ye August's heart sink.
"August, you really don't know our boss! In fact, I don't blame you for asking, what girl would not be tempted by a handsome guy like our boss? However, the boss has lived for more than a hundred years, but he has also been devoted to him for a hundred years, and his heart has long been given to others, even if anyone is tempted by him, he will not be able to enter his iron heart at all. ”
Speaking of this, Mo Xiaoya stopped, and looked at Ye August's eyes and suddenly became serious.
"August, you may feel uncomfortable listening to my words, but I still have to make it clear to you. You are so obsessed with staying with the boss, even if you don't say it, I can see that you definitely don't have an ordinary feeling for the boss, maybe you already know him, and worship him very much, so you try your best to stay. But you have to remember that you can silently worship and admire him, but you must not fall in love with him! Do you understand what I mean? ”
Mo Xiaoya is sincere for the sake of Ye August's good.
Because of how tragic the consequences of falling in love with an iceberg are, she has seen too much.
"Sister Xiaoya, have you ever loved the boss?" Ye August didn't seem to listen to her advice, and was still obsessed with her thoughts about Ling Heng.
"No kidding, how could I possibly fall in love with him? Don't look at him handsome, he's not my type. Mo Xiaoya's expression inadvertently became soothing, but her eyes became profound, as if she was recalling something, and she seemed to be longing for something.
"I also loved a man in my life, who was a man in armor and on a war horse, who terrified his enemies on the battlefield, and who was a great hero whom everyone admired. He returned from the battlefield and walked in front of the triumphant procession in high spirits. And I stood in the crowd and smiled at him, putting all my thoughts into the smile. I didn't expect him to look at me and smile, that moment was one of the happiest moments of my life. ”
Listening to Mo Xiaoya's tender memories, Ye August completely dispelled his worries, and couldn't help but feel sympathy for Mo Xiaoya's unrequited love before his death.
Mo Xiaoya's eyes were a little red, and after taking a sip of water, she continued to narrate: "Later, my father promised me, and I never closed my eyes the night before I got married, because I couldn't believe that my husband was actually the hero in my heart!" It wasn't until he lifted my hijab that I knew it was all true! My dream has come true! My husband treated me very well, and I think I must have done a lot of good deeds in my last life to be blessed to marry my husband. However, less than a year after we got married, my husband set out again. That time, what I was waiting for at home was not his triumph, but the bad news that he died on the battlefield. I couldn't accept this fact, so I hanged myself the night I learned that he had been killed. ”
Mo Xiaoya finally finished speaking, a faint bitter smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, and a tear slowly slipped from the corner of her eye with her bitter smile.
Ye August looked at Mo Xiaoya in a daze, unable to imagine that Mo Xiaoya, who was so optimistic and happy, had such a tragic past.
"Sister Xiaoya, how long ago was this? Is your real name Mo Xiaoya? Ye August wiped her moist eyes, she now has a new understanding of Mo Xiaoya.
"That's been more than 500 years. My surname is Mo, my girlfriend's name is Mo Ruya, in today's words, I am a second-generation official. There were no tears in Mo Xiaoya's eyes, but there was still sadness on her face.
Ye August immediately asked puzzled: "It turns out that this was five hundred years ago?" Oh my God, Sister Xiaoya, aren't you older than the boss? And you are still a daughter, so why are you still so respectful to him and willing to do things for him? ”
"If it weren't for the boss, I would have been gone. He is my benefactor, so even if he squeezes me and bullies me again, I have to endure it! Mo Xiaoya gradually raised her voice, and her usual smile finally appeared on her face again.
Ye August's curiosity was completely raised, and he couldn't help but ask: "Sister Xiaoya, what happened at the beginning?" Why has your soul wandered the world for so long? How was he saved by the boss? ”
Mo Xiaoya pushed the food towards her, "It's complicated to say." You eat first, or the dishes will be cold, and I'll tell you when you're done. ”
"Okay." Ye August held back his curiosity and ate as soon as possible.
"Sister Xiaoya, don't you eat?" Ye August suddenly raised his head and asked.
"I'm not hungry, you eat first." Mo Xiaoya smiled softly.
Ye August didn't speak again, and ate obediently.
Mo Xiaoya stood up and came to the window to look at the scenery.
"Why is he here?"
Mo Xiaoya said in surprise and couldn't help frowning.
"Who's coming?" Ye August hurriedly raised his head and asked.
"Xing Jiang. He looks quite weak, did he come to the hospital for a check-up? In August, you eat slowly, I'll take a look! Mo Xiaoya hurriedly ran out.
After Mo Xiaoya left, Ye August immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks, turned his face to the window, and closed his eyes.
No one knew what she was thinking, because her ward was a single room, so she naturally didn't believe that Ling Heng was a stingy person, otherwise how could she be allowed to live in such a good ward.
Mo Xiaoya's teasing of Ling Heng was a joke, and Ye August could see it.
After closing his eyes and pondering for a short time, Ye August suddenly opened his eyes, picked up the dishes and chopsticks again, and looked like he was devouring food.
"Miss Ye, are you really okay?" Xing Jiang's voice suddenly came.
Immediately afterwards, Mo Xiaoya's slightly sour voice that she couldn't hide sounded, "I'll just say she's fine, you still don't believe it." How delicious do you think she eats? ”
Ye August hurriedly looked at them in surprise, "Officer Xing? What are you doing here? Are you here for a check-up? ”
"I ...... Well, I'm here to check it out, and I heard you're here to check you out. Xing Jiang said the word "by the way" very seriously, but Mo Xiaoya still rolled her eyes behind him.
Ye August pretended not to see Mo Xiaoya's white eyes, and kept a polite smile at Xing Jiang, "Aren't I okay?" Officer Xing, I don't think your face is very good, you should go back and rest as soon as possible after the examination. ”
Ye August was quietly sending off the guest, Mo Xiaoya heard what she meant, and immediately put away the vinegar.
But Xing Jiang was like a piece of wood, not only did he not have the intention of leaving, but he also leaned over to Ye August's side.
"Who the hell is that kidnapper for you? What exactly is his purpose? Miss Ye, I hope you can tell me in detail the process of his kidnapping of you, I promise to catch him in the shortest possible time and let him be severely punished by the law! ”
Xing Jiang had a jealous and hateful expression on his face, and he couldn't wait to catch that hateful guy right away.
Mo Xiaoya glanced at him and said coldly, "Officer Xing, I don't bother you about it." The kidnappers of August have been taken care of by our boss!"
Listening to Mo Xiaoya's words, Xing Jiang's emotions immediately became extremely excited, "What did you say?" That guy was dealt with by your boss? How could Ling Heng kill people casually? ”
