MTL - Endless Fall-Chapter 22 Secret love is like a honeypot with needles

  Chapter 22 Secret love is like a honeypot with a needle hidden in it

   "Jiaojiao, how soon can I be discharged from the hospital?" Lan Ying took a bite of a banana that Qu Shao bought.

"Saturday."

"So long?"

  Lin Jiao hugged Xue Jing, who was sleeping soundly, and said in a softer voice, "The doctor said that you are afraid that you may have complications and you must stay in the hospital for observation."

  Lan Ying might have thought it was a big deal if she hadn't retched, but now she had to listen to the doctor.

   She threw away the banana peel: "Then observe."

   "Is Uncle Xue here?"

   "He went to Linshi yesterday, I didn't tell him."

   "Are you going to hide it from him?" Lin Jiao opened Xue Jing's fist and rescued the hair that was held in his palm.

   "Well, he came over but interfered with my rest."

  The reason why Lan Ying still has a girly heart is her current husband, Xue Taiyao.

  Xue Taiyao, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a wife and madman. He can't bear her to work, see her hurt, and listen to her grievances.

   For something as 'serious' as a minor concussion, he knew that he would have to jump up and down, and the trouble would last for days.

   "Yes." Lin Jiao's scalp felt numb when she thought of how Uncle Xue wanted to lift the roof.

  She raised her eyes: "Then I'll take Xiaojing back tonight, and I'll send him over tomorrow morning."

   "Aren't you going to work tomorrow?"

   "It's okay, I got up early."

  Lan Ying had no choice but to agree to her.

   She waited for Xue Jing to wake up, and warned him with a serious face for a long time, and only after getting his obedient assurance did she let him go.

  Xue Jing was extremely excited along the way.

   He knelt down on the back seat, his two little hands pressed against the window, and looked out frequently: "Brother, you are driving too slowly!"

   "Is this still slow?" Qu Shao glanced at him through the rearview mirror, and then began to flicker: "I've stepped on the accelerator all the way."

   "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"

"do not you?"

   "I'm five years old!"

   "What's the difference? Are you still a child?"

  Xue Jing retorted with his neck stuck: "I'm not!" He stared at Qu Shao's profile and said seriously: "The teachers say I'm not."

   "Why did the teacher say you are not?"

   "Because I will be helpful, never bully other children, and be very obedient..."

  Qu Shao was amused by his boast.

   He complimented him with two words, and according to the memory in his mind, he drove into the post at a slow speed and stopped at the downstairs of the unit.

   "Miss Lin, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."

   Hearing this sentence, Lin Jiao touched the key and refused, "No, I'll just take a taxi with Xiaojing."

   "Anyway, I'm coming to pick up the boss, drop by."

   "It's too much trouble, it's still...".

   "It's fine." Qu Shao waved his hand and said with a smile, "I still need your help in the future, so don't be polite."

  Lin Jiao had no choice but to respond: "Then be careful on the road." She waited for Xue Jing to give him a high five, then opened the car door and led him out of the car.

"elder sister."

"Um?"

   "I think my brother is very good." Xue Jing followed her into the elevator and said with a sullen face, "It's a pity that he doesn't like you."

  “…”

   "But it doesn't matter, when I see Dad, let him find you the best boyfriend in the world!"

  Lin Jiao's brain hurts.

   She pinched Xue Jing's face: "Do you just want your sister to find a boyfriend so much?"

  Xue Jing nodded: "I'm afraid you're lonely." Before she could be moved, he added: "It was said on TV that Ziran was miserable!"

   "What is Ziran?"

   "People who die alone."

  Lin Jiao understood now.

   She blocked the self-closing elevator door, and led him forward faster: "The word is loneliness, and I am alone."

   Xue Jing followed her and read it again.

   His eyes followed the hand holding the key, and returned to the original topic: "Sister, I don't want you to be alone."

   "Well, no."

  Lin Jiao was afraid that he would fall when he was wearing inappropriate slippers, so he opened a group and chose a pair: "Xiaojing, do you want some snacks?"

"think!"

   "Then you choose."

  Xue Jing was sitting on the sofa holding his mobile phone. When he caught a glimpse of the candy column, he pursed his lips and said, "Sister, I want to eat candy."

"no."

   "Can't you just eat one?"

  Lin Jiao met those pitiful round eyes, and instantly softened: "Then you can buy a lollipop, only one."

   "Thank you sister!"

   "It's okay." She tied her long hair: "You can watch TV for a while after you choose. I'll go in and take a shower and come out soon."

  Xue Jing responded crisply.

   He picked out a few favorite snacks and prepared to place an order. As soon as he entered the payment page, a WeChat message popped up.

  [Are you home? ]

   Xue Jing didn't know his name, but he could understand the meaning of this message.

   He thought the other party was Qu Shao, so he held down the voice key: "Here, my sister is taking a shower."

   Pei Zhi, who suddenly heard a childish voice, was stunned.

   He remembered the photos he received in the afternoon, and he communicated with him in a gentle voice: "Have you had dinner yet?"

   "I ate." Xue Jing realized that it was wrong after answering.

   He replayed the voice and stared at the screen curiously: "Who are you?"

   "My name is Pei Zhi, your sister's friend."

   "Boyfriend?"

   "..." he thought.

   Pei Zhi coughed lightly: "No."

   He waited for a while, but before Xue Jing could reply, he was about to ask about the situation when he received a video invitation from him.

   When the two lines of sight met across the screen, Xue Jing's round eyes widened a lot.

   He moved to the side with his legs crossed, and praised him as soon as he opened his mouth: "Brother, you look better than the people on TV!"

   Pei Zhi hooked his lips: "You look good too."

   "I'm not good-looking." Xue Jing dragged her cheeks and said thoughtfully, "My mother wouldn't scream when she saw me."

   "That's because you haven't grown up yet."

   "Is that so?"

   "Hmm." Pei Zhi straightened his jaw.

   He poured some awake red wine into the glass and shook it gently: "Did you go to elementary school?"

   "No, I'm in preschool."

   "Five years old?"

   "Yes, brother, you are so smart!"

  Xue Jing finished praising him and remembered the business again.

   He glanced quietly in the direction of the bathroom and asked in a low voice, "Do you like my sister?"

   He doesn't just like it.

   Pei Zhi habitually suppressed the emotions in his eyes, and even in the face of a child who didn't know how to observe words, he didn't dare to show his flaws.

  This secret love is like a honeypot with a needle hidden in it.

   Before he was sure, he didn't dare to take out the needles in the jar easily, for fear that it was over before he could taste the sweetness.

   Pei Zhi drank the red wine and pushed the question back by practicing Tai Chi: "Why ask this?"

   "I want to find a boyfriend for my sister." Xue Jing told the story of being alone again, very stubborn: "Do you like it?"

   Pei Zhi still didn't answer.

   He couldn't deny his feelings, and he couldn't admit it easily. He just said, "She has her own ideas, don't worry."
