Subconsciously pushed Jerry Xiao, his face slightly sunken, turned back to see Nabi Yan eyes with tears gazing at the scene, she also did not turn around and go, but helplessly leaned against the door, tears like rain.
Obviously, the scene in front of her, the impact on her is too big …
“Nabi …” Zoey wasn’t expecting her to show up, and the accusing look in her eyes made her panic a little.
Jerry Xiao had gotten up and stood in front of Nabi Yan, without a trace of panic in his eyes, just looking at her calmly, “What brings you here?”
Nabi Yan whimpered and suddenly explored her arms to hug Jerry Xiao, “Jerry, don’t do this to me, OK? I have nothing now … daddy, mommy are angry with me, I have no home … only you left …”
Her pearly appearance, I can see the pity.
“Nabi …” Jerry Xiao called out to her to push her away. She held her tighter and tighter, as if he would disappear from her life as soon as she let go.
The two of them were embracing each other, and Zoey’s heart was overwhelmed with mixed feelings. How could he compare his relationship with Jerry Xiao to the years he had with Nabi?
Jerry Xiao suddenly reached out and clasped her wrist. The warmth of the warmth hit her, making her chest palpitate. When she looked up, his dark eyes locked on her, but he said to Nabi, “Nabi, we should go.”
Nabi Yan froze for a moment before slowly taking a step back and gazing at Jerry Xiao with hurt, “Are you really going to stay with Zoey?”
Jerry Xiao’s thin lips are tightly pursed and his expression does not have a single ups and downs, making it impossible for people to guess what he is thinking at the moment.
“Jerry, if you really want to be with Zoey, I will not stop … instead, I will bless you …,” Nabi Yan held back the tears in her eyes, smiled a far-fetched smile But, “But, you also have to think clearly, Zoey … almost is your sister-in-law … her, you can afford to?”
Nabi Yan’s soft and gentle words were like a heavy stone on Zoey’s chest.
Indeed …
Between her and Jerry, there is too much of a disconnect …
Jerry Xiao’s eyes sunk slightly, did not say anything, picked up his clothes, pulled Zoey and went out. Nabi Yan was left alone in the same place.
…
He kept silent as he walked forward, gripping her palm extra hard, as if he was repressing something. It was not until she reached the elevator that Zoey was able to walk alongside him. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.
She wants to …
Just Nabi’s last words, he was listening to the bottom of his heart. chuck, has never been the wound in his heart, whether in the past or now …
…
“Zoey , where are you going?” Nini squatted by the suitcase and looked at Zoey as she packed her things.
“Go to Japan. does Nini know where Japan is?”
Nini’s little head shook straight up, “How long is that going to take?”
“Well … minimum four days.”
“Four days?” Nini counted with her little fingers and her little eyebrows rose, “What if Nini misses Zoey?”
“Little fool, if you miss Zoey, call Zoey!” KK sat cross-legged on the big bed.
Nini suddenly curled up and got into the suitcase, giggling, “Zoey, take Nini with you! You can put it in the suitcase! We’ll even save on airfare!”
Zoey smiled as she carried Nini out and laid her on the bed, “I’m afraid Zoey won’t even be able to do her job if I bring you there. You two be good at home these days, listen to your grandparents, and …” Zoey looked at Nini, “No bullying uncle, little girl!”
“I know …” Nini good aggrieved beeping small mouth. Where did I bully uncle? But just … always want to ride the horse horse, and, and uncle play the game of cat claw mouse. Of course, the cat is her, uncle is the mouse …
“Zoey , Uncle just had a phone call with me oh.” KK was lying on the bed, wiggling her two little legs.
Zoey looked up, the little guy propped up his little head and asked, “Are you going out with Uncle Oh?”
“Hmm.”
KK didn’t know what he was thinking, but he was laughing like a fool, and Zoey, with her head full of black lines, slapped his little butt, “What are you laughing at?”
“Zoey was with Uncle for four days, it would be lame if Zoey didn’t take care of Uncle!”
Zoey eye twitch …
“Uncle is so handsome! Nini also likes uncle!” Nini called up, just short of Zoey bubble heart heart.
KK looked at her with disgust, “Nymphomaniac! You are still too young, uncle is now Zoey’s.”
Zoey looked at the two expectant children and did not say what she wanted to say.
How can a child be clear about the world of adults?
The following day.
Zoey arrived at the airport at 9:00.
Inside the VIP lounge, Jerry Xiao is sitting on a large couch with his laptop resting on his lap when Zoey enters. To one side were several executives from the company.
Zoey greeted them with a slight bend. Feng came over and handed Zoey’s luggage to the staff.
Jerry Xiao didn’t look up either, and the waiting room was incredibly quiet. zoey didn’t come up to say hello, but just took out the materials he had prepared and regrouped them.
Time passed unnoticed, and the information in Zoey’s hand was suddenly jerked away by a pair of large palms. She looked up, Jerry Xiao had already taken her information and walked forward while reading it. Feng called back to her, “Secretary Baker, it’s time to go!”
She hurried to follow.
When boarding the plane, Jerry Xiao took the lead in the first row of first class, while Zoey’s position was two rows back. She subconsciously glanced in his direction, he seemed a bit tired, leaning back slightly on the chair, closing his eyes to rest.
Zoey sat down, took a thin blanket over her lap, and also quietly closed her eyes.
I didn’t sleep very well last night, so I’m really a little sleepy now.
Zoey slept so deeply that she didn’t even notice when the plane took off, but she was suddenly awakened by a shout in her sleep.
“Mr. Xiao!” It was Feng.
There was obvious panic in his low voice. Around him, a group of executives were also clearly frightened by Jerry Xiao’s appearance.
I saw him leaning back in his chair with his eyes tightly closed, his brow wrinkled in pain, his face pale and horrible, his features spasming badly. Feng raised his hand to press the service button, but was restrained by Jerry Xiao’s probing hand.
Zoey’s sleepiness was all gone at once. She rushed out, replacing Feng’s hand to find the flight attendant, while panicking through her carry-on bag … “Miss, how can I help you?” The flight attendant immediately came over.
“I’d like a glass of warm water, please.” Zoey flipped the medicine out so quickly that her hands were shaking. This time he was having an attack that seemed a little more painful than the last time – a very bad sign.
Zoey hardly dared to think about the doctor’s words, and could only hold her breath as she poured the two pills into her hand.
Zoey sat next to Jerry Xiao, holding his head gently in a cold sweat and letting him rest on her shoulder, but he stubbornly refused, only to reach out and hold her hand firmly in his.
He is a proud man, in front of so many subordinates, do not want to reveal their vulnerability, especially, the weakness of business people, but also can not be easily exposed.
Zoey knows, can only softly whisper in his ear to gently coax him, “Jerry … don’t be like this. Take it easy …”
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public. Zoey, who was in distress, did not force him, but asked in a shaky voice, “Where is the water?”
“Here it is, here it is!” Feng took the water from the flight attendant and handed it to Zoey .
Zoey hurriedly brought the pills to Jerry Xiao’s lips. He didn’t struggle, letting her pass it and then slowly bringing the water to his lips.
The pills were swallowed and it was clear that his pain had not abated. While Feng went to calm the group of shocked executives, Zoey took a blanket and gently covered him with it. Looking at his face covered with cold sweat, Zoey felt very uncomfortable.
I took the tissue and carefully wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. But his hand was suddenly grasped. He also had cold sweat in his hand, no temperature, Zoey was so distressed that she almost immediately held his hand back.
He opened his palm, and her hand, clasped tightly together.
“Let Feng … sit at your place …,” his dark voice, very difficult before spilling out.
“Well …” Zoey nodded and clasped his hand even harder. Even if he didn’t say it, she wouldn’t leave at this moment.
His body moved slightly and his head slowly leaned on Zoey’s shoulder. From his taut hand, Zoey knew how badly he was hurting.
Her heart, more pain … fierce trembling …
I don’t dare to ask, but I can only hold back the tears in my eyes. The empty other hand, slowly caressing his cold forehead, the force is gentle, mild, like the spring willow branches gently floating …
“Zoey Baker …” he called her softly, his voice trembling.
“Hmm?” Zoey answered quickly, her voice choked. He moved a little, the blanket fell down, and she covered him up again in a panic, “You rest first, don’t move around.”
Fortunately, when she went out, she deliberately took the medicine with her.
Jerry Xiao lifted the blanket and put half of it over her. His weak breath sprayed right on the side of her cheek.
“I heard my dad say … that my grandfather also had WIID and died …”
Because of this word ‘death’, Zoey’s nose is sore. Just about to open his mouth, he slowly spoke again: “My brother … also because of this disease … left, just like me now, the same pain … ”
Zoey could barely listen to it and looked away, silently wiping away her tears.
Right now, it was hard enough for her to have him in this state. She simply dreaded to imagine what she would do when one day Nini also had to work as hard as he did.
Sometimes, love is so pale and powerless in front of the disease …
At such times, in addition to her hatred of the disease, she could only blame her own powerlessness …
“You’ll be fine … I’ve heard that there are now … cured cases abroad …”
He snorted, “Even the doctor said it was a miracle …”
“There is a miracle, that means there is hope.” Zoey added sharply, “With aggressive treatment, I’m sure everything will be fine …”
Jerry Xiao did not speak again, just silently rested his face on Zoey’s shoulder. Long time, only slowly said: “Every time the disease attack, you are …”
“Don’t you have any medicine on you?” There was some rancor in Zoey’s words. “If I hadn’t come with you guys on your business trip today and I didn’t happen to have my medication on me …”
She suddenly dared not imagine what the consequences would be …
“The medicine was with me, but it was checked in.” He explained.
Zoey got a little angry, “Your body is your own, you can’t give up on yourself. Even if you don’t think for yourself, you should think for your parents …”
