The Hope You Gave Me: 09-Surprise or fright?

After ten minutes of applying an ice pack, Min Hui's nosebleed finally stopped. She has severe allergic rhinitis and is prone to nosebleeds from dryness, anger, cold and anxiety. This is the main reason why she can't swim. The first time Min Hui swam was when she was six years old. Her mother took her to play at the water park in the city, but Min Hui started to have nosebleeds as soon as she stepped into the water. , have climbed out of the pool. The staff came to see that the water in the pool was already red, pollution was second, and more worried about infectious diseases, so they had to clear the site immediately, replace all the water in the entire pool, and dare to reopen it after careful disinfection.

Min Hui suffers from a heart attack and misses swimming.

"Hey, this is the first time I've seen you like this, never before." Xin Qi pressed her head and said, "Don't look up, the blood will choke into your throat, lean forward a little, um, that's fine. Hold it here by yourself - don't use too much force." After that, she ran to the bathroom to find a pack of cotton wool, rolled it into a strip and stuffed it into her nostrils, then put a wet towel on her forehead for cold compress, and tossed around a dozen times. After a few minutes, the bleeding stopped.

Blood on the white marble, like a crime scene. Min Hui was very embarrassed. When she looked at her shirt, it was also spotty. She hurriedly said, "I'm going to change clothes."

"Don't worry, go to the room to rest and wait until the bleeding is completely stopped. Are you dizzy?" He looked at her worriedly, as if something had happened.

Min Hui had bleeding like this three or five times a year, she was used to it, so she shook her head and said it was fine. Seeing Xin Qi's nervous expression, his heart softened, so he had to go to the sofa in the living room and sit down.

"Give me your left hand, and I'll massage it for you." He squeezed the ring finger of her left hand and pushed it back and forth from the base of the finger: "There is a root meridian here, called the lung meridian. Pushing like this is especially effective."

"How long will it take?"

"One hundred times. Don't push too hard, but it's better to push until your fingers turn red." As he spoke, he rubbed attentively, and Min Hui's ears turned red. Her father passed away early, and she has never been cared for so carefully by a man in her life, and she only feels uneasy. It's not a blessing, and I feel ashamed. I want to pull my hand away, but I'm afraid that this kindness will be left out. I had to laugh: "How can you do this? This is standard Chinese massage. Is that so? I'll do it myself."

She took the opportunity to pull her hand back, and did the same, massaging herself.

"I was often hospitalized when I was a child, and I became a good doctor after a long illness. When I graduated from high school, I even volunteered at the Children's Hospital."

So you're a doctor?

Min Hui has always felt that her judgment is not bad, but she has also made serious mistakes. This Xin Qi, she has observed until now, she has not seen which line of work she is doing, is it engineering, science or liberal arts? From the point of view of rich emotions and language excitement, the possibility of liberal arts is relatively high.

He has beautiful hands: slender fingers, well-defined joints, clean nails, and no obvious calluses on them. So he is definitely not a manual worker like Su Tian.

The economic conditions are certainly not poor.

The first is the diamond ring, which is more than one carat, and it costs tens of thousands of dollars.

There is also this honeymoon-style villa, which Min Hui saw on Ctrip. Although it is located in a remote location, it has a good view, a large area, and a private swimming pool. The cheapest one is 8,000 per night.

I live in New York, and anyone who's seen the movie knows that New York's housing prices are not cheap.

In contrast, his food and clothing expenses are extremely ordinary, and there is no special attention to it. The clothes are mainly black, white and gray, and most of them are sports models, and there are no big names. Computers, phones, and watches are all Apple series. They have been charged on the coffee table since entering the house, and have not been used much.

Min Hui thinks Xin Qi is puzzling because there are many contradictory things about him, especially the difference between him in front of Min Hui and him in Su Tian's diary. When he is cordial, he is like the big brother next door, and he is a domineering president with a straight face. When you are naughty, you can mess around, and when you are serious, you can also intimidate and lure. If you love someone, you will swear, and if you hate someone, you will kill them.

I like to be funny, but also understand the sense of proportion. Touch your bottom line in minutes, but it will not invade strongly.

Min Hui thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't guess Xin Qi's occupation. She couldn't help but start to back down again: I don't know how to get through the next few days without revealing the truth. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and encourage himself: As long as this kind of person doesn't do business with him, with his own IQ plus a 13-year vacancy, he should still be able to handle it.

The most tangled thing is that she seems to have walked into a dead end: if she doesn't play Su Tian seriously, she will wear a gang. Seriously playing Su Tian, ​​she doesn't act like it.

"Min Hui's version" Su Tian and the real Su Tian have long since parted ways, but under the influence of Xin Qi's charm, she has become more and more involved in the drama, and she can no longer be pulled out.

***

Mingshui County is between Harbin and Suihua, and the hotel booked a morning train to Harbin for them. Min Hui is from the South. Except for Yongquan City, the most northern place she has ever been to in this life is Beijing, so she has no idea of ​​the place names of the three eastern provinces. Xin Qi said that Suihua was "not far", but it wasn't even close. It takes four hours by train and four hours by bus to get there.

The thought of being alone with Xin Qi for eight hours, in a closed space like a train or a bus, made Min Hui immediately breathless and felt that she had nowhere to run.

Fortunately, as soon as they got on the train, they found a group of college students sitting in the carriage, each holding a shopping bag with the words "Wild Flower Lake Scenic Area" in their hands. Like them, they just returned from a vacation in the Wildflower Lake Scenic Area.

The two boys sitting opposite are one of them, and they should be seniors by age. A surnamed Tang, burly, handsome, wearing a thin T, showing a strong body, feels like a sports department. The other, surnamed Qian, was his classmate. He was medium in height, a little puffy, and wore black-rimmed glasses.

Seeing Xin Qi and Min Hui sitting down, they took out two poker cards and played cards. They asked if they wanted to play an upgrade, and Min Hui readily agreed.

From here to Harbin, there are four hours to pass, what can be more time-consuming than playing poker?

"Sorry, I can't participate." Xin Qi said, "I haven't played an upgrade."

"What about the bridge card, will it?" Min Hui asked.

"Bridge Club."

"Upgrading is very simple, I'll teach you," Min Hui took out two cards from the box, "You can learn it as soon as you learn it, and you can play it as soon as you play it."

Seeing that Xin Qi doesn't know how to fight, and he has to study now, the two boys were a little unhappy, and asked him if he could change with the boys in the back seat, and only Min Hui would participate.

"No." Xin Qi said, "I learn very quickly."

Min Hui spent ten minutes introducing the basic rules and play to Xin Qi, and then the two teamed up and played with the two boys.

The boy surnamed Tang is very talkative. Seeing that Min Hui is good-looking and in good shape, he can't help but secretly look at her, looking for opportunities to get close. Min Hui developed early and was pursued by boys since junior high school, so she was used to it, so she didn't take it as a surprise.

In the beginning, the progress was slow. Xin Qi was still in the rookie stage and didn't know how to cooperate well. They were still playing 6, and the college students had already hit J. But Xin Qi learned quickly, pondering while playing, the two quickly turned the table, and it took only an hour and a half to hit an A.

The boys refused to accept, and the four started over.

After playing for a while, Xin Qi played the queen of hearts, and Min Hui immediately guessed that he had a king of hearts in his hand, and he had A and J of hearts in his hand, so the pair of 10 of hearts was a big card. Cover with an ace of hearts and play a pair of 10s of hearts. Xin Qi glanced at her, smiled and thanked her. In fact, Min Hui paid attention to analyzing and calculating every card played by Xin Qi from the first card, instead of just playing the cards in her hand. As for Min Hui's thinking, Xin Qi was also very quick to figure it out, and the cards she handed out were always what she wanted, and she would never lose the chain at a critical moment. The two cooperated tacitly, and they were like a broken bamboo, and they quickly won the second game.

"Sister, you are amazing!" The boy surnamed Tang was in awe of Min Hui's card skills, "He must have studied science and engineering, right? He is very good at mathematics, isn't he? I guess you are from Harbin Institute of Technology? At least a graduate student. All of us are from the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering. Sister, are you working or studying now? Are you also in Harbin? Let’s add a WeChat? Welcome to our school when you have time, and everyone will find opportunities to learn more.”

Answering any one of so many questions would reveal confidentiality. Min Hui shook her head and smiled: "You have to go to college to play cards? If you play too much, you will become proficient."

"In our school, there aren't many girls playing." The boy named Tang took out his cell phone, and when he saw Min Hui looking away, he used the corner of his eye to swipe around her chest.

"That's because there aren't many girls in our university," his companion corrected.

"I just have a good memory, so I'm more able to keep cards and count points." Min Hui turned her head and met his gaze when she realized that a button on the chest of her shirt had been unbuttoned at some point. She couldn't help but feel embarrassed. In front of a group of men, it is not easy to buckle it back, so I have to pretend to cover the water glass and block it in front of my chest.

"Too humble! Sister, you are a genius! You are a genius!" He deliberately carried a Hong Kong accent, with a Zhou Xingchi-style exaggeration. Min Hui felt unhappy, and always felt that there was a hint of teasing, but he didn't want to cause trouble, Had to laugh.

"Sister, please teach me and accept me as a disciple!" Seeing that Min Hui did not express his position, he touched Xin Qi again, "This eldest brother, are you her boyfriend? Help me?"

Xin Qi didn't speak, just drank the mineral water silently, then raised his head and gave him a light look: "You don't need to call me eldest brother, just call me brother-in-law. We meet by chance and play cards just for the sake of To relieve the boredom, she doesn't have WeChat, and she doesn't accept apprentices—"

The boy surnamed Tang saw that Xin Qi's face was wrong, he didn't take it seriously because he was tall and big, he smiled at Min Hui, took out his mobile phone and opened WeChat: "Sister, scan the code. "

"I really don't have WeChat."

"Sister, you're going to the grave to burn newspapers -- are you lying to ghosts? Who doesn't use WeChat these days --"

Xin Qi suddenly buttoned his cell phone on the table and stood up coldly: "She has already said that, there is no WeChat."

"Did I talk to you, eldest brother?" The boy surnamed Tang also stood up, he was half a head taller than Xin Qi, and poked his fingers provocatively on his chest, "Let's talk to your poker friends. What happened to the card art? What age is it now, and my sister wants you to call the shots for her? I think—"

"Bang!" Xin Qi threw out a right uppercut, hitting the bridge of his nose, and the boy's nosebleed immediately gushed out.

Seeing that his companion was beaten, the boy named Qian was not happy. He took the glass in his hand and smashed it on Xin Qi's head. It shattered, and the glass **** fell to the ground. Several fragments were scratched on Xin Qi's face, and two bloodstains appeared.

"Damn, you dare to hit Lao Tzu!" The boy surnamed Tang grabbed Xin Qi and was about to throw a punch, but Xin Qi took the lead, and he was slapped on the face again, the corner of his mouth was broken, and the pain was so chaotic Called, "Xiao Si, Xiao Ding - I'll beat him with me!"

The classmates sitting in the front all ran to this side when they heard the call. Seeing that a group of people were about to fight, Min Hui shouted: "Stop! Call me again!"

The customer next to him hurried over to pull, but Xin Qi still refused to give up, and was dragged by Min Hui to the door of the carriage: "Xin Qi, don't fight, you're about to arrive at the station. Grab your luggage, Stand here and don't move."

"Don't today's college students know what is meant by public order and good customs?" Xin Qi said angrily, "No, I have to talk to him and educate him!" After that, he wanted to go back and was killed by Min Hui. hold on.

"Xin Qi, your lips... a little purple." Min Hui suddenly looked at him nervously, "Are you all right?"

"It's fine." He tilted his head, not wanting her to see it.

She grabbed his arm tightly: "Really? Then don't talk, just calm down."

His heart was beating fast and his breathing was very fast, the two stood silently, and after a while, the lips finally returned to their normal color.

"It's alright now." She stared at him with wide eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief, only then did she feel wet behind her back, as if someone had poured a glass of water. For a moment, I was so scared that my hands and feet were cold and sweaty.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." He hugged her hard and found that the train had stopped slowly.

Seeing her still in shock, she smiled and said: "I haven't seen you for thirteen years, you have become good at playing chess and cards, I'm thinking, I don't know what other surprises there are in you. ?"

Min Hui was dumbfounded. The surprise is gone, the rest is all fright.
