It hurts - it hurts - it hurts -
Xiao Xia woke up in boundless pain. She couldn't tell where it was, but she felt like a wandering needle was scurrying around in her body, pricking her body with holes wherever it went.
Especially her head, as if something had been taken away, blurred into a blank mass. As long as she tried to think carefully, the blank mass turned into impenetrable darkness, and was accompanied by a severe headache, which made her I couldn't help but moan.
A warm and dry big hand touched her forehead, making her feel comfortable for a moment, and she tried to open her eyes.
"Do you still recognize me?" the man asked in a low voice with a smile.
"Nonsense." Xiaoxia murmured feebly, "I really want to forget."
"You can't forget even if you want to, right? I knew I was very charming!" Wan Li's hand was still on Xiaoxia's forehead, "The fever has gone away, but I still look a little weak."
"What's wrong with me?" Xiaoxia was confused, and her thinking was a little confused for a moment.
"Don't you remember?" Wan Li looked at Xiaoxia's face thoughtfully.
As a doctor, he understands that psychological shock will always cause indirect physical harm. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, thoughts are very important. Just like this time, Ruan Zhan only erased and modified a small part of Xiao Xia's memory, but Xiao Xia was probably aware of it when Ruan Zhan was doing it, so she would suffer serious psychological damage. In addition, she She suffered a lot of physical injuries and mental intimidation in Hongqing Town. As a result, she had a high fever and fell into a coma. In the end, she was so serious that she had to be hospitalized.
I hope she doesn’t regain her lost memories, otherwise she will hate Ruan Zhan and be very sad. Or maybe subconsciously, she doesn’t want to wake up!
"I seem to have had a dream." Xiaoxia frowned, "But I can't remember what I dreamed about, but something definitely happened. I just can't remember." She stretched out her hand and rubbed her forehead irritably.
She really hoped to remember something. Deep down in her heart, she always felt that it was a very important thing!
"Your brain cells are too active, and you have a strong sense of immersion in dreams. This is a very fragile psychological state." Wan Li stroked Xiaoxia's lightly wrinkled eyebrows with his fingers, "You are just acclimatized. , you fell ill as soon as you entered Hongqing Town, and then I had to go and take you back. The medical conditions there are still not as good as here."
"Hongqing Town?" The name flashed in Xiaoxia's mind, causing her to suddenly grasp the edge of her memory. "Yes, I went to carry out legal propaganda - the last place was Hongqing Town - Then we checked into the hotel, and then—and then—”
Xiaoxia thought hard, making Wanli very nervous. He believed in Ruan Zhan's magic power, but if Xiaoxia's memory was too deep, it would be possible to defeat the confinement of magic power with human instinct. Fortunately, after thinking about it for a while, Xiaoxia gave up because of her headache.
"Then you suddenly fainted." Wan Li strengthened Xiaoxia's thoughts, "You scared Abai, and she couldn't send you to the hospital, so she had to notify me as soon as possible."
"Abai?"
"Abai, don't you remember?" It's best if you don't remember!
But Xiaoxia's reaction was not what Wanli expected. She smiled and said, "Of course I remember Abai, but I just woke up and was a little confused. What happened to her?"
"HOHO, you should ask me what's wrong!" Wan Li said as exaggeratedly as possible, "No one can encounter such strange things as I did. In the middle of the night, the phone rang suddenly, and I didn't answer it. , there was a woman on the other end of the phone calling me: Wanli - Wanli - Wanli - you will know what it feels like if you try it."
"It's a bit scary." Wan Li imitated A Bai's charming voice, which made Xiao Xia laugh. "This world is too strange for her, so you can't blame her! By the way, where is A Bai?" Xiao Xia then thought. I got up and looked around, and found that there was bright sunshine outside the window. I was in an unfamiliar environment, and it looked like a ward.
This ward is a three-person room, but there are no patients in the other two beds.
"Can't she come out during the day? Hey, where is my bracelet?" Xiaoxia raised her wrist and did not see the bracelet that Abai was hiding.
"She took it away and said it was a souvenir. In exchange, she gave you this." Wan Li said and took out something from his pocket.
It was a green string with a small stone tied to it. The four corners of the stone were inlaid with some silver edges. Green threads are densely tied around the periphery of the stone, almost completely covering it, but there are still traces of extremely beautiful red coming through the circles of green.
The bright green, dazzling red, and sharp silver gave this necklace a clumsy beauty. Xiaoxia fell in love with this jewelry at first sight and felt that she was born to be the owner of this stone!
"Do you like it?" Wan Li liked the happy glow on Xiaoxia's face. "The stone was given by Abai, but it is my credit for designing it into such a beautiful necklace. I knew that these red and green combinations were just right. You're such a firewood girl!"
Under normal circumstances, Xiaoxia would have retorted, but at this moment her mind was completely attracted by the stone necklace, and she tried hard to get up. But as soon as she sat up, she felt dizzy. Wan Li hurriedly put his arm around her shoulders and helped her put on the necklace.
As soon as the stone came close to Xiaoxia's chest, she suddenly felt very kind and a little sad. And the most unexpected thing was that this date-sized stone was so light and weightless, as if it was born to be a part of her body.
"They say jewelry is a woman's best friend. It's true. It depends on what you like." Wan Li sighed lightly.
"Oh my gosh, I feel like this stone has spirituality, let alone some of Abai's treasures, this is too precious!"
"Maybe it's a treasure. I heard it's called the Stone of Immortality. However, if she gives it to you, just take it. She must have her own reasons. Abai said that when she has time, she will tell you in her own way. You, what is so magical about this stone?"
Xiaoxia nodded and looked at the stone that fit perfectly with her body, "You haven't answered me yet, where did Abai go?"
"Go home!" Wan Li tried his best to say it easily, "She is like a fairy and will not be greedy for the prosperity of the world. She came here just to find Sima Nan. Once she found him, she naturally went back. ”
Xiaoxia was a little surprised by this news, and she quickly pestered Wanli to ask for details. Fortunately, Wanli had already made up a good story during Xiaoxia's coma, so there were no flaws.
Xiao Xia sighed, "It turns out that Sima Nan also loves A Bai and has been following us. I didn't even know it. Well, it's okay. Although Sima Nan did a lot of bad things, A Bai is so good, and I love him so much, and it’s a good thing that he can change. But it would be great if Abai could come and see me. Otherwise, let’s go see her!”
Wan Li was startled, "No!" He objected, and then immediately found an excuse, "If two people want to practice, you should probably be considered a human being. If Yang energy often contaminates others, bad things will happen."
This excuse is a bit forced, but in Xiaoxia's heart, Abai also has her own life, and maybe she really doesn't like others to disturb her. When she and Ruan Zhan were together, she wished they were the only two people in the world.
"Where is he?" For some reason, Xiaoxia's heart ached when she thought of Ruan Zhan, "I mean - Ruan Zhan, where did he go?"
She could feel the discomfort in her body and was quite weak. She must be seriously ill. Didn't he even come to see her? Although the relationship between them is a little better than friends, it is not to the level of lovers. Although her secret love has not yet come to fruition and the plan of "surrounding the city from the countryside" has not been implemented, as a friend, he should come to see her.
"Ah Zhan -" Wan Li helped Xiao Xia lie down, "He didn't even know you were sick. Not long after you went to promote the law, he returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors. Although he is an adopted son, his father He is a son. Even if he is a bad person, he still has to perform filial piety from time to time. What, do you want me to inform him?"
Xiaoxia quickly stopped.
The relationship between her and Ruan Zhan is not that close yet, so she has no right to act coquettishly towards him! But why does my heart hurt when I think about him and why do I feel so in love with him? What's wrong? Sick and weak? But she couldn't do this. Before she knew whether Ruan Zhan was interested in her, she couldn't destroy the ambiguous and fragile relationship between them. Why did just an illness change her mood?
Wan Li looked at the complicated expression on Xiao Xia's face and didn't know what to say. She could never hide her emotions and showed everything on her face. This was what attracted him most about her. Kindness, straightforwardness, and innocence were all beautiful qualities that were almost extinct in today's society.
He understood that Xiaoxia's feelings for Ruan Zhan were too strong, so even if this part of his memory was lost, there would still be lingering feelings. The human body and psychology are the most complex things in the world. No one can study them thoroughly, and no one can control them.
He also has feelings for Xiaoxia. Apart from Nana, he has never been so attracted to her even his ex-wife. He made a mistake at the beginning, when he just got out of a failed marriage. As a result, his caution and prudence made her position him as a good friend and a good brother. When he wanted to save it again, Ruan Zhan appeared.
He knows his friend. On the surface, he seems to be very carefree and treats every woman equally well, but deep down he is a first-class good man. Xiaoxia will definitely be happy if she is with Ruan Zhan. Seeing this, and seeing that Xiaoxia had no such intentions for him, he was determined to give in.
It is said well in a movie: He would rather have two happy friends than one unhappy woman!
But now the situation has changed. Ruan Zhan has a knife called 'Feng San Difficulty' hanging over his head that can fall at any time. Two people with strong magic power say that he will never be able to survive this death disaster. This makes Ruan Zhan The iron will cannot help but become weak. Ruan Zhan truly fell in love with Xiao Xia, and he couldn't let go of this feeling, so he had to consider Xiao Xia from his own point of view, and finally decided to give up on her!
Is this selfless or selfish? Wanli couldn't tell. But he decided that he would also slowly approach Xiaoxia to see if she could accept him. It's not about taking advantage of the situation, but I hope that no matter what the outcome is, no matter how this triangle relationship is resolved, it's better that she is not the one who gets hurt.
After all, he loves her too!
"Okay, don't think so much, just let nature take its own course!" Wan Li pulled Xiaoxia's thoughts back, "You have been sick for two weeks. You need to take good care of yourself after you go home, and then you can take your leave and go to work."
"Two weeks?!"
Wan Li nodded.
It was actually only one week, but he had to calculate the time Xiaoxia was trapped in the empty city, otherwise she would not be able to answer the question. As for hospital records, the attending doctor here had pursued him, and this little thing could still be hidden.
"You have a fever, so you don't have any impression. I'll ask the doctor to check on you later. If it's nothing serious, we'll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow - just stay here first -" Wan Li wanted Xiao Xia to stay at his house for a while , so that he could be taken care of nearby, but before he finished speaking, the door of the ward opened and a man broke in.
"Beauty, are you feeling better?" he said briskly.
Xiaoxia was startled. She looked up and saw a young man walking over with a smile.
This man is not as handsome and gentle as Wan Li, nor is he as mysterious and elegant as Ruan Zhan, but he is handsome and very lovable, making people fall in love with him at first sight. He was wearing very fashionable casual clothes, his hair was dyed red and yellow, and he held a large bouquet of roses in his hand, which he handed directly to Xiaoxia's hand.
"For me?" Xiaoxia subconsciously caught it.
"Of course. Look at you, you are so sick and haggard, but when you are set off by these red roses, you become many times more beautiful."
Xiaoxia couldn't help but smile. Every woman likes to hear compliments, and the tone of this man's words seemed particularly heartfelt.
"But-" Xiaoxia tried hard to remember when she knew such a famous person, but she couldn't remember at all. who is he? Why no impression at all? Is he so sick that he lost his memory? Impossible, she clearly remembers a lot of things!
"Oh, I am your admirer." The man said thoughtfully, "My surname is Bao, my nickname is Datong."
He said it so politely that Xiaoxia almost laughed, but the name suddenly flashed in her mind, "Bao Datong, you are Bao Datong!"
"I am." Bao Datong blinked, "Xiaoxia, do you know me?"
"Of course, Wan Li told me the story between you two!"
When Bao Datong heard what Xiao Xia said, he turned to look at Wan Li, but saw the latter looking at him impatiently.
"What are you here for?" Wan Li said coldly.
"I came to check on Xiao Xia's illness, didn't you see it?" Bao Datong said and wanted to touch Xiao Xia's hair, but was held up by Wan Li in mid-air, "You called me Xiao Xia too!"
"Isn't her name Xiaoxia? Why can't I call her?" Bao Datong seemed shocked.
At this moment, no matter how nervous Xiaoxia was, she could still tell that something was wrong between the two people. It is said that they have experienced life and death together, and Wan Li is easy-going and very kind-hearted, so he should have no problem getting along with anyone, but I don't understand why he is so nasty to Bao Datong.
"Who asked you to come in, wouldn't you knock on the door? This is the courtesy a man should have, Xiaoxia is a girl." Wan Li continued to accuse.
Bao Datong looked innocent, "Aren't you a man? If you were inside, Xiaoxia shouldn't be in a situation where she needed to avoid it. Why can't I come in directly?"
"Can you compete with me? We have been friends for many years."
"You also said we are 'friends'. Soon, I may be her best friend. Do you think 'years' is closer, or 'best' is closer?"
Wan Li sneered and immediately retorted, and then Bao Datong came back again. The two argued for a long time, one with an impatient look and the other with a silly look, which gave Xiaoxia more and more headaches.
"That——Bao Datong——"
"Hey, just call me Datong."
"Okay, Datong. Why do you come to this city?"
"He's going to be a professional stickman!"
"I want to open a ghost hunting company!"
Two men gave two sentences with different words but the same meaning.
