“Why are you here?” Cindy pulled Emma out, asked Emma on the balcony.
“Why can’t I come? At least I’m the boss. Isn’t it normal for the boss to come and see the employees’ families? Didn’t Carl just explain it that way?” Emma said of course.
“Come on, you are the standard evil capitalist. Can you be so kind?” Cindy looked at Emma doubtfully.
“I am not a capitalist. Yesterday you told me Carl’s story, so I want him to see his sister, but, he is very stubborn. If I do not come he will not come either, so I have to come to the hospital.” Emma said helplessly.
“Good, you are a human capitalist.” Cindy patted Emma’s shoulder and said with a smile.
“Then, what are you doing here?” Emma interrogated Cindy in turn.
“I visit my student. My reason is more aboveboard.” Cindy said with a smile.
“It is late, why are you still here? I think that you just don’t want to a teacher, but a sister-in-law.” Emma looked at Cindy and then laughed.
Cindy flushed and pinched Emma after she understanding her words.
“All right, All right, I surrender. Ok?” Emma raised the white flag by being pinched by Cindy.
“Well, let’s go.” At this time, Carl walked out of the ward, came to Emma and said.
“So soon? Won’t you stay longer with your sister?” Emma looked at Carl strangely.
“I’m not a very good talker.” Carl said lightly, then turned to look at Cindy and said, “Miss Hu, thank you, thank you to help me take care of Frost. She is in a better mood today.”
“Did you thank me just by word and no action?” Cindy looked at Carl and asked.
“Action? How about I treat you to dinner?” Carl thought for a while and said.
“It is boring. I have every meal.” Cindy shook her head in disgust.
“So… how can I express my gratitude?” Carl smiled and said, he knew that Cindy was joking with him.
“I haven’t decided yet. I’ll tell you when I have decided. Anyway, just remember that you owe me a promise.” Cindy thought for a while and then said.
Carl paused, then nodded in agreement.
When they back to Emma’s house, Carl and Emma each abide by their default rules, Carl took a bath and then stay in his bedroom for a whole night, and Emma has been staying upstairs. It can be awkward living in a house with a man she didn’t know very well.
Carl was sitting on the balcony. From his own canvas bag he took out an old photo, which was a family photo, with a middle-aged couple, a boy and a girl in her arms. The middle-aged couplewas Carl’s parents, the little boy was Carl, and that girl was Frost. Carl also remembered he was nine years old when this photo was taken, and Frost was only one year old at that time. One year later, his father died, and this was the only family photo left in his family. It was a happy family with four people, but now only he and his sister were living.
When Carl was looking at the photo, suddenly, the lights in the room suddenly went out, and then he heard the upstairs came Emma’s scream.
Hearing this, Carl suddenly jumped up from the chair. Intuition told him there was something wrong with Emma. Attacking after power outage was one of the most common methods. Carl picked up his own old mobile phone, by the faint light of the mobile phone, rushed upstairs like a leopard, without any sound.
According to the voice of Emma, Carl determined the approximate position of Emma. Although Carl never came upstairs, he still found Emma’s position by the faint light of the mobile phone. A sound was made by the door, Carl could tell that a fight took place inside.
Carl quietly came to the door, carefully with his hand on the door handle. He was surprised that the door was apparently locked from the inside. Carl frowned, then came a clanging sound inside, it seemed that something dropped on the ground. Carl took two steps back, and then kicked the door lock. When the door was opened, Carl rushed in, and then picked up the phone, using a faint light of mobile phone to find Emma and the unknown enemy.
when Carl raised the light of the phone to look after, a woman’s naked body was standing there, and no other figures around. Carl moved up and found Emma was staring with dull expression. At the moment Carl also completely froze, he did not know what exactly the situation was.
Emma also completely froze. She was taking a bath, suddenly the lamp went out, which was dark around, which frightened Emma, and she screamed. Then Emma began to grope for towel to wipe her wet body.
As there was no light at all, her hand knocked over a lot of things in its path, and she was just touching the towel when suddenly there was a loud bang and the door was opened, and then a faint light and a quick figure rushed in before her. Then this beam of light was on her naked body, finally stopped on her face. At that moment, Emma found the person holding the phone was Carl. Emma’s brain was completely blank. She was completely stunned about this series of things happened.
And at the moment it was not only her being stunned, but also Carl. Carl was blank in brain, especially when he saw Emma’s totally naked body.
