14 Chapter 14

Shang Mingbao relieved the dizziness on his head, and wanted to get up, but he felt that his arms tightened.

"Don't move......" Xiang Feiran rarely didn't use a crisp tone, and after taking a breath, he said in a low and patient voice: "Slowly." โ€

Shang Mingbao is a long, thin one, with a fragrance piled up in his hair, like a bouquet of flowers.

Like a bellflower.

You're like a bunch of bellflowers.

Xiang Feiran buried this sentence back in his heart and said coldly: "Okay, get up." โ€

Shang Mingbao's eyelashes were filled with tears, and before getting up, she grabbed the collar of his T-shirt and lowered her head to wipe it.

Xiang Feiran: "......"

It's really natural to use people.

He loosened his embrace, and his broad palm pressed against her butterfly bone: "Are you okay?" Feel if there is any pain in your body. โ€

The midsummer night dew was slightly cool, and the more his breath burned, the heat of his body invaded every inch of Shang Mingbao's skin from under the thin T-shirt, she suddenly blushed, and got up in a panic with her hands and feet: "I, I'm fine." โ€

Xiang Feiran eased up for a while, and also got up.

"Your clothes are dirty." Shang Mingbao picked up the flashlight on the ground and shook it on him.

Xiang Feiran propped one hand on the trunk of the tree and took a deep breath, while saying, "It doesn't matter. โ€

But Shang Mingbao still walked over and patted him on the back. Xiang Feiran's deep breath stopped halfway, turned around, and coldly clasped her wrist, his thumb pressing against her palm.

"No one taught you to keep a proper distance between men and women?" Under the warm light of the flashlight, there was a rare irritability between his eyebrows, his eyebrows were frowned, and his eyes were as dark as the sea.

Shang Mingbao was at a loss when he questioned him, but he was still more aggrieved and angry: "Don't toast and don't eat and drink." โ€

"What?"

"I don't even have to take a picture of the dirty things on my body myself, I still have to shoot you ...... You're killing me! Shang Mingbao snorted and withdrew his hand heavily: "If you don't shoot, you won't shoot, you think I'm willing to ......"

This time he almost shook Xiang Feiran's hand away. He only felt that his palms were empty, and his heart seemed to be thrown away from him with the force that slammed it, so that he felt a sense of sink.

He didn't speak for a while, and after two seconds, he calmly said: "Thank you for your kindness, I understand." โ€

Seeing that Shang Mingbao was still silent, Xiang Feiran hooked his lips: "You are quite different from the two days you just met." โ€

One is soft-spoken, the other has a princess temper.

Shang Mingbao raised his face suddenly, stared at him and asked, "Do you like the original one?" โ€

"Nope."

"You hate the current one?"

"Not either."

"You just prefer me when you first met me for the first two days." Shang Mingbao lowered his head.

Actually, the difference is not that big, is it...... She just saw that he cared about her, and she got a little carried away.

"I just met me for two days, and it's not fake." She finally said softly.

Xiang Feiran said indifferently: "Strangers don't like it or not, don't bother, it's not important." โ€

The rest of the way back was silent.

When people are unhappy, it seems that even fear has to give way, no wonder the cannon fodder in horror movies always dies on the way to leave alone after arguing with others. Shang Mingbao walked in front of her alone, not afraid of anything, her heart was very blocked, as if something was high and tight like a stone, blocking all her breath.

Back in the courtyard, Aunt Lan, who had been waiting, was shocked: "What's wrong?" โ€

The street lamp illuminated two embarrassed figures, both of their clothes were black, and it was obvious if they were stained with mud, not to mention that none of them had a good-looking face.

Fang Suining came to see the excitement with a toothbrush in his mouth, and before he could taunt two sentences, he was instructed by Xiang Feiran: "Take Shang Mingbao up to see if there are any external or internal injuries." โ€

Fang Suining got the order, and listened to Xiang Feiran's explanation: "Pay attention to any suspicious wounds, tooth marks, and holes." โ€

"What's that?" Fang Suining asked.

"There are snakes in the mountains, and if it hurts too much to fall, it may overwhelm the pain of the snake biting you. Some snake toxins do not cause muscular neuralgia, and it is too late to be discovered. โ€

The two understated words were terrifying to hear, Fang Suining hurriedly pulled up Shang Mingbao, don't go upstairs, just stay close - eyes locked on the specimen room.

"What about Brother Feiran?" Shang Mingbao looked back not very firmly, and only Fang Suining heard it.

"He's fine, he's been in the wilderness since he was eight years old, and he knows how to take care of himself." Fang Suining pushed her into the door and turned on the light to the brightest point.

The curtains are transparent to light, and in the folds of the waves, a blurry but delicate curve is reflected.

He bowed to Fei Ran and naturally turned his back and sat down on the edge of the hallway. There was no one else in the house, so he took out his crushed cigarette case and pulled one out of it.

Aunt Lan poured him a glass of warm water, looked at his side face smoking silently, and stopped talking for a while. She couldn't persuade him to smoke less, because she couldn't forget the scene when Xiang Feiran sat in the specimen cabinet and smoked all night long.

Xiang Feiran took out a puff of cigarette and took the water cup she handed over: "Thank you." โ€

"I'll give you the medicine later?"

There are few men in the family, and they all went to Beijing with Xiang Lianqiao, Aunt Lan is the housekeeper, and she is the oldest, she can barely be regarded as an elder, which is more convenient than others.

Xiang Feiran smiled: "No, I'll do it myself." โ€

Aunt Lan remembered: "The medicine left by Miss Tan before is very good, I don't know if it has expired ......"

She turned away as she chattered, suddenly realizing something, and stopped.

Everyone was unusually quiet, including Fang Suining, who was examining Shang Mingbao's wounds.

After a few seconds, Xiang Feiran's voice sounded understatement: "No need, Yunnan Baiyao will do." โ€

Aunt Lan hurriedly said "oops" twice and revealed the matter.

After Fang Suining finished the inspection, he gave an observation conclusion: "Fortunately, there are no bruises." โ€

"Because Brother Feiran blocked it for me." Shang Mingbao put on his clothes, and the soiled jacket was thrown on the ground.

"Yes, you are the little sister, he should do whatever he wants."

Shang Mingbao pursed his lower lip: "He's so good to you?" You always scold him, and think he doesn't take care of you. โ€

She instinctively wanted to find a little peculiarity in withdrawing from the word "sister".

"I don't take care of you like this, but of course my family is different from my guests." Fang Suining patted her, afraid that she would feel guilty, so he deliberately said: "Don't worry about it, he hates that kind of human affection." โ€

Shang Mingbao was stunned. It turned out that in addition to her sister, there was also a guest layer, and she forgot. Then her temper on the road is really a little carried away, out of place, and shallow and deep.

She nodded.

I also wanted to ask who "Miss Tan" was, but I didn't seem to have the time to ask. Maybe...... It's his ex-girlfriend, she's so important to him, and he's so obsessed with it that he can't even mention the ointment she left behind.

Shang Mingbao took a deep breath and changed a smile on his face.

When I went out, there was no one under the porch, and the bedroom was lit up.

Fang Suining sniffed out the smell of tobacco and sighed, "Huh", "Is it smoke?" โ€

Shang Mingbao lowered his eyes and covered for him very naturally: "No, I didn't smell it." โ€

Fang Suining chatted with her and asked, "So, what did you go to watch at night?" โ€

"Look at the nocturnal state of the plant - it turns out that mimosas sleep at night, what is it called......"

"Emotional night sex." Fang Suining said for her, "The motile cells in the leaf pillow absorb water and expand, the leaves open, and shrink after draining at night, and the leaves look like they are sleeping when they are closed." โ€

After speaking, she closed herself slightly: "Damn, when I asked him before, he asked me to read a book by myself!" โ€

Shang Mingbao pursed his lips: "That...... He also showed me how plants look under ultraviolet light, which is also very beautiful and interesting. โ€

"What?" Fang Suining couldn't hold back: "Why did he take you on a night tour of the botanical garden like a kindergarten child, but what he showed me was the pollination of beads under the small fruit leaves?" โ€

"What's that?"

"The beads under the leaves of the small fruit use nectar to attract the fine moth to help them pollinate, but the fine moth is not a vegetarian, will take advantage of the nectar to secretly lay eggs in the flower, and when the larvae hatch, they will feed on the seeds of the pearl under the small fruit leaf. But the little fruit leaf bead probably knew that this thing was holding bad water, so at that stage it would emit a smell to attract another insect to come and let them eat the larvae of the fine moth, preventing them from eating up the seeds - this is a parasitic symbiotic symbiotic pollination that everyone sacrifices to each other, and everyone is happy, but it doesn't matter! The important thing is why he took you to see the flowers and plants, but the moths he took me to see! Who wants to see moths! โ€

Fang Suining's mentality collapsed. โ€ฆโ€ฆ

Although the eggs laid by the fine moth were not visible to the naked eye, she was still blown crazy by the moth that night!

Shang Mingbao tried to flatten the corners of his lips, held back the thumping in his heart, and comforted her: "It's okay, these are all cute secrets of plants." โ€

Fang Suining: "Then let's change it next time." โ€

Shang Mingbao refused without blinking: "Don't." โ€

ยท

The mist of steaming water from the mirror was wiped away by a hand, reflecting a pair of thin, sharp eyes.

Xiang Feiran propped up the sink, and after taking a deep breath of relief, he poured the medicated oil into the palm of his hand and rubbed it hot, and scribbled on the back injury.

The effect of the medicine was very strong, he frowned and endured, and when he finished applying it, his skin was covered with a thin layer of sweat.

In the afternoon, half of the assembly had to be continued, and at the same time there were several samples of data to get, it was impossible to sleep, and it would be good to lie down for a while before dawn.

He opened the door and was about to go back to the study, but he was caught off guard and saw Shang Mingbao who had been waiting at the door.

He thought that the smell of medicinal oil was strong, and he planned to dry it, so he didn't wear clothes on his upper body.

As soon as they met, both froze.

The man in front of him has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and his muscles are beautiful, not exaggerated, but he knows at a glance that he is self-disciplined all year round, his body fat is very low, a pair of loose gray sweatpants are tied around his waist and abdomen, and the drawstring is not tied, and further down, Shang Mingbao can't look at it.

Xiang Feiran coughed lowly, and lowered his hand to wipe his hair with a towel: "Put on clothes." โ€

The movement of turning revealed a hint of panic that was extremely rare in him.

Shang Mingbao was stunned and saw the bruises and scratches of different shades on his back.

Xiang Feiran casually put on a T-shirt and came back, his black hair was still damp, but it was not dripping, and it was a little messy and hung down his forehead.

"How?" He asked a little coldly.

"Your wounds...... Are you okay? โ€

"Out of the way."

Seeing that she was still not leaving, Xiang Feiran asked, "Something?" Let's put it bluntly. โ€

"Originally, I wanted to ask you, can't you really take us up the mountain, but just now I saw the injury on your back, so I decided not to ask."

Xiang Feiran smiled at her words: "I decided not to ask, but I still said it one by one?" โ€

Shang Mingbao was warmed up by his smirk, and when he looked down, his mind was withdrawn from here, returning to the scene where he fell into the woodland with her in his arms.

She was too well protected by him, safe and sound, and now she knew that it was the body just now that could protect her so much.

Shang Mingbao is always very good at behaving when she asks for others, but this time she neither behaved nor coquettish, but raised her face and looked into his eyes: "I can't help it, the summer camp is coming to an end." โ€

Yes, the summer camp is coming to an end, and with five days left, she will be back in Hong Kong. Her tutors and clubs arranged a strict itinerary for her, her good friends prepared a grand welcome party for her to celebrate her liberation from the suffering of the poor countryside, and her salesmen and account managers airlifted flowers and haute couture for her, ready to close the store for her at any time.

Her short summer is coming to an end.

Such a summer is lackluster for a young girl, like a fallen leaf gently swirling on the surface of the river, and it will not be the age to look back on it until she is thirty or forty years old.

She wouldn't look back at him until she was thirty or forty.

Xiang Feiran closed the bedroom door, with a faint expression on his face: "How many days are left?" โ€

"Five days."

He nodded: "I'll buy a pair of hiking shoes tomorrow, count the tents and supplies when I come back, and enter the mountain the day after tomorrow." โ€

Shang Mingbao was a little surprised, and he replied so simply: "You agreed?" You're not saying you're busy...... Otherwise......"

Instead, she retreated.

"Shang Mingbao." Xiang Feiran interrupted her.

Under the hanging electric lamp, there was the sound of moths flapping their wings.

He lowered his gaze, his deep gaze piercing straight into her eyes: "Don't withdraw the request you made to me, especially after I promised you. โ€
