“I heard from Little Bean that all the pictures he used to take with his mommy are collected here. Can I see them?”
“You’re curious about this?”
“Uh-huh.” She nodded.
Lan Yu Feng was also very dry, casually comparing, “The third bookshelf, 4th row, find it yourself.”
“Well, you get busy with yours.”
The lights are dim.
Zi Ge wandered through the rows of bookshelves, her fingers flowing over a book, but she couldn’t help but fantasize in her mind the image of Lan Yu Feng looking for a book here.
Is he also searching like a fly on the wall, like himself, or is he organized?
A man who strategizes like him should be used to having everything in order.
As he thought about it, he couldn’t help but poke his head in his direction.
Under the shadow of the lamp, the side of the face is exceptionally charming, especially at this moment he is focused on the work …
It was no wonder that Zhuo Yunruo and Su Xi were both addicted to him.
Ziggy exhaled, trying to wave away the undeserved dullness in her mind, and pulled out the heavy shadow book.
No matter how charming it is, it’s still someone else’s husband after all, and it has nothing to do with her … …
Sure enough, like Little Bean said, the photo book was full of pictures of him and Mommy.
From the time he was a tiny baby wrapped in swaddling clothes to a toddler to a mischievous child.
Leaning against the bookshelf, squatting on the ground, looking at the face in the photo that looked exactly like his own, Zi Ge couldn’t tell what kind of feeling she had in her heart.
The shock, the surprise, had been there as early as the moment of seeing myself. Only, there were still some inexplicable feelings remaining in the heart, which were hard to describe.
She looked back one by one, her eyes finally resting on the last photo.
It was a photo from a wedding gorgeous church glass window, clean sunlight penetrating in, the holy cross just above the head of the bride and groom. They were kissing fervently, enjoying the blessings of all the guests, and the whole picture looked warm and romantic.
What a beautiful pair …
Ziggy, however, couldn’t help the sudden, passionate kiss that night in her bed running through her mind.
When he … kissed Zhuo Yunruo, was he as intense and passionate as he kissed himself that night?
Or is … a little more gentle and lingering?
Thinking about this, Zige’s heart was inexplicably a little hard. Just about to close it, the shadow book was suddenly jerked away by a large hand. She looked up, and the heavy dark shadows enveloped her from top to bottom, and a low male voice resounded above her head, “What’s so pretty?”
Seeing that wedding photo, he raised his eyebrows in understanding. Dropping his eyes, he looked at her with a faint layer of coldness under his eyes, “What was that expression on your face just now?”
The low voice, which sounded a little cold in the quiet night, was unusually sexy, drilling into Zi Ge’s ears and landing on the tip of her heart.
She stood up and shook her head, “Nothing …”
“Lost or sore?” He casually put the photobook back in its place and turned to look at her with eyes that seemed to look through her.
It was best that she didn’t fall in love with herself so quickly, or the game would become too unchallenging.
“What?” Her heart skipped a beat and she pursed her lips in a show of composure.
Lan Yu Feng bent his head down to stare at her cheeks, those eyes were still flat and waveless, but it was as if he wanted to see through all her emotions.
Thin lips lifting, he spoke, “That night, at your house, I think I need to make it clear …”
“You don’t have to explain!” Looking into those almost cold eyes, as if knowing what he was about to say, Zi Ge took a deep breath and eagerly interrupted. The heartstrings trembled slightly, and the hand that hung down at his side, subconsciously clenched, “I know what you want to say, so there’s no need for you to be redundant. That night was just a misunderstanding, we both know it very well.”
Her face, a little pale.
Actually …
I really, really hope he’ll say something to counter this, but …
Lan Yu Feng, however, always just lowered his eyes to look at her trembling eyelashes and did not utter a single word of denial.
So …
He acquiesced!
If that was the case, why had he kissed himself that day, and why had he said that he didn’t ever think of her as Zhuo Yunruo?
Was it, really, just to coax her back to stay with Little Bean again?
Zige very much wanted to ask clearly in one breath, but, looking at his indifferent eyes, all the words seemed to freeze in her throat in an instant, making it impossible for her to ask a single superfluous word.
Pivoting away from him, she turned and walked out of the study with a stiff back.
Leaning against the bookshelf, Lan Yu Feng narrowed his eyes at the smear of back. Somehow, it was actually easy to see through her injuries and …
Inexplicably, there was some congestion in his chest.
This, it seemed, was not an emotion he should be feeling.
Zige didn’t know why she had walked here. Holding her arms full of flowers, she stood outside the hospital room for a long time, still hesitant to go in.
“You’re Miss Zhuo’s sister, aren’t you? It’s a true resemblance to Miss Zhuo.” Suddenly, someone spoke to her. She glanced sideways and saw the doctor who had seen her last time, she smiled slightly and didn’t reply.
“It was a big shock the last time I saw you! Come in, it’s just about the time that Miss Zhuo is going to wake up.”
The doctor was already pushing open the ward as he spoke, and Zige eventually stepped in and casually chimed in, “Does Mr. Lan come here often?”
“Yes, comes often and has all the patience in the world for Ms. Zhuo. I heard that they were a young couple with a great relationship, it’s a shame that the ending turned out to be like this, or else they would have been a talented couple.” The doctor sighed and shook his head.
Perhaps infected by such emotions, Zi Ge’s heart felt some compassion.
Zhuo Yunruo was currently lying on the hospital bed, she curled up into a ball and took the quilt to wrap herself tightly, refusing to even show her head.
“What’s wrong with her?” Ziggy asked suspiciously, sticking the flower in her hand in a vase off to the side.
“Taking medicine for fear.” The doctor replied as he moved to the side of the bed to pull the covers over her, “Ms. Zhuo, it’s time to take your medicine!”
“You go away! I hate eating those beans! Go away!” Like a willful child, she refused to poke her head in and just muffled her screams.
“Come on, you’ll smother yourself like that.” The doctor had a tug of war with her, but she was so strong that she pinched the quilt and just wouldn’t let go.
“Ms. Zhuo, you have to take the medicine. Don’t be capricious. If anything happens, we can’t afford it.” .
The doctor was still persuading, but never had much success. Ziggy stepped forward and tapped her on the shoulder, “Let me try.”
How can she listen to reason with her?
“You? Can you convince her?”
Zige wasn’t sure, “I’ll try. I’m a nurse and I didn’t take care of a lot of kids in the hospital, so maybe I can use those tricks.”
Hearing her say that, the other took a step back.
Ziggy just sat on the edge of the bed, pulling the little snack she’d just bought for her little bean out of her bag, she unwrapped it without saying anything and ate it, making a loud chewing noise on purpose.
In the hospital room, it was quiet.
Only Ziggy’s voice could be heard.
After waiting a while, the person hidden under the covers finally stirred, “What are you eating?”
“Chocolate beans.”
“Is it good?”
“Mmm, it smells good.” Ziggy chewed another one.
The quilt slowly lifted, and there were eyes poking out. Seeing Zige, Zhuo Yunruo tilted her head and frowned with a meditative look, “Who are you? It looks so familiar.”
How could the exact same face not look familiar?
Ziggy laughed a little and pulled out a chocolate bean out and smiled at her, “Want to try some?”
Zhuo Yunruo didn’t say anything, she just took those eyes and gazed at that small black bean obsessively. Zi Ge smiled and handed it to her, and she immediately put it in her mouth and chewed it like Zi Ge.
“Is it good?”
“Yummy.” She nodded, immediately removing her defenses and sitting up, hugging the covers. Hair hanging down, that face was all innocent smiles.
What was she like before the mental error?
And what is the reason for this downward spiral?
Zige couldn’t help but think, her voice unconsciously softened a few points, “Still want to eat?”
“Mmm. Delicious!” Zhuo Yunruo simply nodded straight.
Only then did Zi Ge bring the medicine and water together and hand them over to her, smiling and coaxing her like a child, “Then let’s eat these beans first, okay? After eating the beans, you can eat as much as you want.”
Zhuo Yunruo’s face fell for a moment and pushed Zige’s hand back a little, “Not good. The beans aren’t good.”
“If you’re a good bean eater, we’ve got lots of goodies, look …” Ziggy compared the snacks she’d bought with her lower jaw, “You can eat whatever you want. OK?”
“Really?” Zhuo Yunruo asked uncertainly, but her eyes were looking at the pile of snacks with a greedy look, looking like a childish child.
Zige couldn’t help but feel a little more compassion in her heart and nodded, “I promise it’s all yours.”
Zhuo Yunruo was torn, but still took the water and medicine together. Receiving Zige’s encouraging look, she tilted her head and swallowed it in one agonizing gulp. Because she ate too quickly, she choked on the medicine and almost vomited it all out.
Zige hurriedly got up, patted her back to smooth her breath, and asked with concern, “Is everything okay?”
“I want chocolate beans.” Once she had gotten her breath back, she grabbed the chocolate beans and held them tightly as if they were her baby. That childish gesture made Ziggy laugh away. Turning sideways, she asked the doctor, “Can I push her out for a walk? I don’t see her looking too good, and the sunlight might put her in better spirits.”
“Having just taken the medicine, her spirit will be much more stable. There shouldn’t be any trouble taking it out for a walk, but you have to be careful and make sure you don’t let the patient wander off.”
“I will.”
Cherry blossoms scattered throughout the hospital park. Zige pushed Zhuo Yunruo to walk in the park. She seemed to be in a good mood, chewing on a chocolate bean and looking here and there.
Ziggy didn’t talk to her much, just often looked at that face of hers in a daze.
It shouldn’t be a coincidence that someone in this world looks so much like himself, right?
“Water, I want water!” After eating too much chocolate, Zhuo Yunruo was thirsty and grabbed Zige’s hand and tugged.
Ziggy then snapped back to her senses and looked around, “That’s the kiosk over there, I’ll push you over to get it.”
Zige asked for a bottle of water, looked down and rummaged through her bag for money to give to the boss, then looked up again and the man in the wheelchair was suddenly gone.
“Ms. Zhuo!” Zige immediately broke out in a cold sweat and looked around.
Only to see that familiar figure, running like crazy towards the main road in the hospital. Across the main road at this moment there was a pair of young parents holding a small baby, obviously, she was rushing towards that child.
And a car was coming down the road at that moment.
Days!
Zi Ge was so shocked that she didn’t even bother to take the water and raised her steps to chase after her.
“Ms. Zhuo!” She exclaimed, and sure enough …
But Zhuo Yunruo was defiantly just rushing towards the main road.
Ziggy’s mind went blank, and almost without thinking, she ran over and wrapped her arms around her shoulders and shoved her violently away.
“With a sharp squeak of the brakes, the car came to a steady stop in front of Ziggy. But the shock was so great that she stumbled and rolled to the ground. A sharp pain hit her, and her palms immediately bled from the sharp stones on the road.
