Chapter 24 Bedtime Story
Ji Tingyang touched his forehead with his finger. When he saw the blood on his fingertip, he did not change his color. He just told Wen Li to have a good rest first, and then left her bedroom.
As soon as she left the bedroom, she saw Lin Xu in the corridor. She looked a little nervous, pacing back and forth in the corridor, peeking at the door of the room from time to time.
After discovering Ji Tingyang coming out, she subconsciously looked away with a guilty conscience, but when she saw the blood on his face, she immediately ran forward in horror.
"What's wrong with your forehead! Why is it bleeding?!" Lin Xu hurriedly stretched out his hand, wanting to touch his forehead, but he was afraid that the bacteria on his hand would infect the wound, so his little hand froze for a moment. Half empty.
She heard the commotion inside and didn't dare to go in. She didn't expect the commotion to be so serious. Did they start fighting?
Ji Tingyang held her hand that was frozen in the air, lowered his head and rested it on her shoulder. A trace of pain flashed through his deep, dark eyes where she couldn't see them.
Lin Xu couldn't care about the blood-stained clothes. He patted his head gently with his other hand and coaxed softly: "Let the doctor take a look at your wound first, okay?"
After a long while, Ji Tingyang responded in a muffled voice.
After receiving the call, the family doctor rushed over immediately. When he saw his wound, he took a deep breath and muttered, "This wound needs two or three stitches."
Lin Xu stood up and wanted to make room for the doctor, but Ji Tingyang held her hand and refused to let go, leaving her with nowhere to retreat.
"Don't go..." His voice was hoarse, and he looked as fragile as a child on the verge of collapse.
Lin Xu immediately comforted him: "I'm not leaving, I just want to make room."
Ji Tingyang is now half lying on the bed, Lin Xu is sitting on the edge of the bed, and the doctor can't squeeze in.
Before Ji Tingyang spoke, the doctor quickly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, just let him hold his hand."
The doctor seemed to be well aware of Ji Tingyang's stubborn temper and that no one could persuade him, so he took the initiative to go around to the other side of the bed to treat his wound.
The doctor was very skilled. It took less than ten minutes to administer anesthesia, stitches, and then bandage.
He opened a few more medicines from the medical kit he carried with him and handed them to Lin Xu: "These are anti-inflammatory medicines, three times a day."
"By the way, the medicine from before Have you finished eating? Do you want some more?" the doctor asked again.
As soon as he finished speaking, the doctor received Ji Tingyang's sharp gaze. He was shocked, realized that he had said the wrong thing, and shut up immediately.
"What medicine did you take before?" Lin Xu was confused.
The doctor shook his head and didn't say anything more. He just gave a few more instructions on the precautions for the wound and left the villa.
Lin Xu turned to look at Ji Tingyang again, intending to pry open his mouth and ask clearly, but found that he was already leaning on the bed, eyes closed and concentrating.
It was definitely intentional.
Lin Xu thought angrily.
"If you want to sleep, just lie down in bed, otherwise you will have a stiff neck and neck pain when you wake up tomorrow." She revealed ruthlessly.
"..." Ji Tingyang moved and lay down on the bed again.
Lin Xu laughed angrily: "Okay, you go to sleep, I'm going back to the room."
"Don't leave..."
Ji Tingyang seems to be particularly special tonight Clingy.
It seems that in some aspects, things will not change even when they grow up, Lin Xu secretly laughed.
"Want to hear a bedtime story?"
"Well..."
Lin Xu remembered that the night before she had a car accident, she told the two brothers He told me a bedtime story, but only half of the story that night was told.
She thought about it and told the second half of the story, "The big bad wolf opened his mouth to eat Little Red Riding Hood, but at this time, the hunter appeared..."
Lin Xu's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, gently soothing his irritable heart, making people feel peaceful and gentle.
Listening to her voice, Ji Tingyang fell asleep unconsciously.
That night, he had a dream.
Dream that when he was a child, he and Ji Zeqiu were sleeping on the same bed, and Lin Xu was lying between the two of them, with his arms around them both.
Her soft voice told the story: "One day, Little Red Riding Hood took the cake that her mother asked her to send to her grandma's house, and met a big bad wolf on the road..." The story was no longer interrupted, and from then on Little Red Riding Hood and Grandma and mother lived a happy life together.
He was very satisfied with the ending of the story, as if their family of five was as happy as the story.
……
The next day.
Ji Tingyang woke up from his sweet dream. He moved his body and felt a warmth coming from his palms.
He looked sideways and found that his hand was still holding her wrist tightly. Lin Xu didn't break away and just lay on the edge of the bed and fell asleep.
Thinking that he refused to let her go last night and asked her to tell a bedtime story, Ji Tingyang felt a trace of embarrassment on his face.
He got up and carried Lin Xu to his bed, hoping that she would sleep better.
Lin Xu was lying on the edge of the bed and had not slept well. Her body was stiff and painful. Ji Tingyang just touched her hand and woke up.
"Huh? Is it dawn?" Lin Xu rubbed his sleepy eyes.
Ji Tingyang took back his hand: "Go to bed and sleep."
"What about you?"
"I have to go to work."
"Oh, okay."
Lin Xu didn't care so much, crawled onto the bed sleepily, and quickly closed his eyes again.
Before falling asleep, she muttered to Ji Tingyang to calm down and threw away Wen Li's handcuffs.
Ji Tingyang pursed his lips, seemingly reluctantly, manic emotions growing in his heart.
He frowned irritably, his eyes touched Lin Xu on the bed, and he paused.
Impatientness only arises and then disappears gradually.
As long as his mother is still with him...
Ji Tingyang came to Wen Li's bedroom. Wen Li was still awake. There were two clearly visible tears on her cheeks. She seemed to have been crying all night.
The skin where the right hand was cuffed was rubbed red.
He rubbed the bridge of his nose, as if his emotions were getting harder and harder to control.
He let out a breath, untied the handcuffs a few times, and exited the room.
Lin Xu woke up and it was already noon.
She was still thinking about Wen Li, and planned to take a look when she got up, but before she left the room, she met Wen Li in the corridor.
But Wenli was as frightened as a mouse meeting a cat. When he saw her, he immediately ran back to the room and locked the door.
Well, at least Ji Tingyang listened to her and really threw away the handcuffs.
Lin Xu had another thing on his mind.
While Ji Tingyang was still working in the study, she found the housekeeper and asked straight to the point: "Butler, do you know what medicine Ji Tingyang is taking?"
The housekeeper has worked in the Ji family for several years and should have heard about it.
"Uh, um..." The housekeeper didn't expect that she would ask this. He was stunned for a moment and looked hesitant.
"If you know anything, just tell me. Even if it is a terminal disease, I will find a way to cure him!" Lin Xu covered his face with his hands and cried sadly.
"It's not as serious as a terminal illness. Miss Lin, don't be sad." The housekeeper comforted helplessly.
"Oh? So you really know something?" Lin Xu looked up, with no tears on his face.
Butler: "..."
I was tricked.
