The moment you turn around, tears, can no longer bear to blur the eyes.
She is a lot stronger than the old Zoey Baker. She is no longer the young lady who can be flattened by others, but, even if she is strong, she cannot stand his repeated injuries …
Her strength, in front of him, is just an unbearable paper tiger …
“嘟–嘟–嘟–“走出两步,身后,有车缓缓跟上.
The most fragile string at the bottom of her heart seems to be being stirred again and again. Is it because they feel that humiliating her is not enough, so they want to continue to bully?
The car, slowed to a halt beside. Lower the window, the handsome face with a clear outline is reflected in the blurred eyes.
Under the mist of light, he stared at her eyes without seeing any emotion, “Get in!”
Zoey just pretended not to hear and kept walking.
“If you don’t want to be dragged into an alley out of nowhere, you better get in the car right now!” Jerry Xiao tapped the steering wheel, neon lights brushed past his face, and only spoke faintly, “If I remember correctly, there are perverts in this area recently.”
Zoey, who was gambling, heard him say this, and still felt a shiver in her heart. Look around, and then think about their own set of clothes, more and more feel the chills.
But now she is also reluctant to go with him, only to stiffen up, walk to the taxi place, reach out to stop a cab.
Behind him, there was no more movement. Turning back, Jerry Xiao’s car did not follow.
A sour taste came from the bottom of his heart, Zoey could not help but feel the loss.
Just now, for a moment, she almost mistakenly thought that he had acted in this way to initiate peace, but now that she thinks about it, perhaps it was just a whim.
The cab stopped at the foot.
Zoey hesitantly pulled open the car door, biting her lip to resist the urge to turn around, when she heard someone suddenly shouting, “Something’s wrong! There’s an accident! Someone fainted in the car over there!”
The heart is tight, think of something, Zoey a moment to get out of the car.
“Miss, are you still going?” The cab driver asked impatiently.
“Excuse me, you go ahead, I have other things to do.” Hastily closing the car door, Zoey twisted her heart to stop the person who just shouted, “Miss, may I ask what’s wrong?”
“When I was just coming over, a man suddenly fainted in the car over there. The situation looks bad, I really don’t know what’s going on!”
Zoey nervously grabbed the other man, “Is he wearing a white shirt?”
“That’s right. Is it someone you know? Then hurry up and check it out, someone has already dialed the emergency number for him!” The other side kindly reminded.
Zoey was so shocked that her face went white, she couldn’t even say ‘thank you’ and turned around in her high heels and ran backwards.
Jerry, don’t, don’t let it be you! Don’t, don’t let anything happen!
In the palm of his hand, he was already cold and sweaty. When he saw the black luxury car under the lights and the dying face in the window, Zoey only felt a chill in her back.
Struggling to push through the crowd, she rushed over and anxiously tapped on the car window, “Jerry! Jerry!!!”
…
The pain in his brain made Jerry’s forehead cold and sweaty. Due to the bruises, the original handsome and extraordinary face now looks a bit grim.
He was in so much pain that he could only grip the steering wheel tightly.
He thought that this pain he had become accustomed to. After all, it had been haunting him for many years. But, now when it hit, the pain was so unbearable that he couldn’t stand it. It was as if the whole person was torn apart.
If he could choose, he even wanted to die.
“Jerry … Jerry, you wake up …” Who is it that calls his name so anxiously?
It must be an illusion.
Now, who else would be so anxious for themselves? My brother is gone, my father and mother are also in critical condition and may leave me at any time; and Nabi … Nabi she …
“Jerry, do you hear me? If you do, do you have the strength to lower the window?” Anxious, gentle voice, little by little soaked into his ears, knocking on his fragile heart.
It’s Her … Zoey Baker…
He struggled to hold up his eyes, following the source of the sound, a small, panicked face came into view.
She was tapping on the car window over and over, her eyes were red and a face was almost pressed to the window.
Jerry Xiao stared at her in bewilderment, his heart crossed a trace of indescribable alienation. The heart became unspeakably soft, and his hand trembled as he groped for the car door, ‘clicked’, and almost exhausted all his strength before he pressed the lock open.
Usually, when the condition flares up, he hates anyone to see this fragile and wretched look around him. But at this moment, but inexplicably willing to let her close to their …
Almost immediately, the door on the other side of the car was opened and the fragrant scent filled the car. Her little face, very close and very close, leaned over. “Jerry, hold on, the doctor will be here soon!” She was terrified, heartbroken, holding his face in her small hands, trembling, a cold.
Instead, he felt inexplicably warm …
“No need … doctor …” gritted his teeth and spat out four words with difficulty between his pale lips.
He was sick of hospitals and sick of doctors.
“No, you’re in so much pain.” Desperately shaking his head, tears fell down.
Seeing him suffer like this, all the aggression and sadness that Zoey’s heart had previously piled up suddenly dissipated. At this moment, I just hate that I can’t bear all this for him.
“Get me the medicine. There it is …” fingers, a feeble comparison in the collection cabinet.
Medicine! There is medicine!!!
Like a lifeline, Zoey turned to her side and quickly searched for it. A brown bottle was filled with large pills. Her voice was shaking, “How many do you want to take?”
“Two …”
“Two … two … pills,” she murmured uncontrollably, pouring it into her palms. worried look around the car inside, saw a bottle of water in the back seat, hastily unscrewed, carefully handed to the medicine first to his lips, softly coaxed: “Come, first swallow the medicine.”
The gentle voice made him narrow his eyes slightly. Opening his lips, he obediently took the medicine in, and the cool water spread into his mouth.
He choked down with difficulty.
Leaning back in the driver’s seat and closing my eyes, the headache persisted.
“Hold on a little longer, an ambulance will be here soon.” Zoey worriedly brushed away his forehead hair wet with cold sweat and gently coaxed, “Does your head hurt? Do you want me to press it for you?”
She didn’t know what was wrong with him. Since he had the medicine with him, it was obvious that this was an old illness. Did it come on very often? Does it hurt this much every time?
Zoey was full of worry. Heard him ask weakly, “Will … it drive?”
“Hmm.”
“Send me back.” He still had his eyes closed.
“No. You have to go to the hospital to see what’s going on.” She subconsciously refused.
Eyelashes fluttered, he inclined his head to look at her sideways, his brow furrowed, “It’s an old problem … no need to go to the hospital … rest for a while and you’ll be fine… …”
Zoey hesitated for a long time, looked at his face a little better than just now, but finally nodded.
Get out of the passenger side and help him out of the driver’s seat.
The first time I saw him, I could see his eyelashes trembling, as fragile as a butterfly with broken wings. The heavy panting, right next to her ear, was mixed with heavy pain, and she was frightened to hear it.
Before this, she had never thought that the ever unruly and arrogant man would have such a helpless moment, as vulnerable as a child.
He took his seat on the passenger side and had taken the initiative to buckle up.
Zoey got into the driver’s seat and tilted her head, he was lounging with his head tilted and his eyes closed.
Almost instinctively, Zoey reached out and gently smoothed the crease in his brow. The hand, however, was suddenly held by him. The cold temperature of her fingertips made her heart ache, and she opened her mouth, her voice getting lower and softer: “Still living in the same place?”
“Mmmm …” he only hummed from his nostrils, holding her hand but not letting go. zoey Ben tried to struggle, but he subconsciously held it tighter.
The two hands were tightly clasped, and Zoey’s eyes flashed. He did not break free again, but started the car and drove it to the Xiao Family mansion.
…
The good thing is, his face is gradually regaining its blood color, apparently, it is no longer in as much pain – it seems that the medicine has worked.
Zoey breathed a sigh of relief.
“Better, right?”
“Well …”
“What is this old problem of yours?”
As if he hadn’t heard her question, Jerry Xiao turned his face slightly away from the window.
It was clear that he was intentionally avoiding his own questioning.
Zoey sighed and did not continue. At that moment, the cell phone he had set aside rang at first.
“Your call.” Zoey reminded softly as she looked at the back of the head that hadn’t tilted.
“Who is it?” He moved slightly, not making a move to listen, but simply asking her.
The neon lights outside the window from his face swayed across, at the moment, he looks no longer the cold and distance of the past, but seems to be much more approachable.
Zoey picked up her cell phone, and when she saw the name flashing on the screen, her eyes faintly paused for a moment. Only then did he speak, “It’s Sunny.”
“Oh.” Jerry only responded in a salty voice.
“You’re not listening?” She looked at him strangely.
“You listen for me and say I’m asleep.” He closed his eyes again.
“What?” Zoey looked at him unsurely, but still shoved the phone into his hand, “It’s better if you do it yourself so she doesn’t get the wrong idea.”
He frowned, lifted his eyebrows to look at the phone still insisting on ringing, and then raised his eyes, Zoey right face hand palm marks, still seems to be visible. It only made him blink.
Throwing the phone back again, he spoke in an unpleasant manner, “Listen to the phone! You are my secretary, you can’t even listen to a phone call, how else can you get the next thing done?”
He has already said so, Zoey also really have no reason to refuse.
After some hesitation, he tapped the speakerphone button to answer.
“Jerry, don’t go looking for her, okay? I just opened a bottle of red wine, I’ll come to your place and drink together?” In Sunny Qin’s request, there was more of a condescending request.
Zoey had some hard feelings.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
Why did she do that to herself before?
“I’m not Jerry,” she, finally, spoke.
Sunny Qin was obviously not expecting Zoey to answer the phone and was stunned. After a long time, she suddenly came back to her senses and shouted angrily, “How could you be the one to answer the phone? This is Jerry’s personal phone, how are you qualified to answer it as a secretary?”
I knew she would misunderstand!
Sunny Qin’s voice was so high decibel that Jerry Xiao could hear it clearly.
He looked at Zoey with a raised eyebrow, but he looked like he was watching a good show.
