Just as Xu Shi and Jiang Chengcheng were having an in-depth exchange of work matters, Xia Wuyou, who had left the "Snake Ring" building, also returned to the hospital.
She basically lives here now - Xu Shi's private ward is no different from a luxury hotel. It's still spacious with her in it, and she can also stay with her loved ones. It's good to kill two birds with one stone.
She wanted to be gentle so as not to disturb her aunt's rest, but as soon as she opened the door, she found that Xia Keyan was not sleeping at all, and was reading a book with a small light on.
"Hey? Auntie, why are you..."
Xia Wuyou was a little surprised when he saw this.
"Can't sleep."
Xia Keyan put down the book and smiled cutely, "I was drowsy and had a nightmare. When I woke up, I found that you were not around. I was a little scared... What were you doing?"
"I……"
Xia Wuyou didn't want to say anything at first, but after thinking about it, he told everything about what happened just now.
She didn't talk to her aunt very much before. She was a white-haired lolita who didn't know anything... But since she discovered that the other party seemed to see everything thoroughly, Xia Wuyou gradually became willing to communicate with her in this regard. Something happened.
"...Is that really what happened?!"
After listening to his niece's story, Xia Keyan couldn't laugh or cry, "Xu Shi called you over in the middle of the night. Is that what he did?"
"you do not say."
Xia Wuyou pouted, "If I had known this, I would have just pretended not to hear and not go."
"But you still went, and it seems that Wuyou didn't miss any of the things he told you."
The white-haired loli poked her cheek teasingly, "I feel like you are becoming more and more obedient to his words... Our little niece has changed a lot recently."
"Auntie, please stop laughing at me."
Xia Wuyou felt aggrieved, but it was hard to refute what she said.
In the past, she could excuse herself by saying "this is for her relatives", but whether she should say it or not, since talking to Su Lin, she knew that it was not just for this reason.
It's more because she can also gain pleasure from her unconditional obedience to Xu Shi.
This idea is not strange, why would I think so... But the feeling is so wonderful that she even becomes dependent on her without knowing it.
"Auntie, tell me, is it good or bad for me to be like this...?"
She shook her head slightly and asked Xia Keyan for his opinion.
"It's hard for me to say."
The white-haired loli held her chin and thought for a while, "But you have to ask. I can only say that there is no difference between good and bad."
"Um?"
"That's how it is."
Xia Keyan pointed to his heart and said seriously, "In my opinion, as long as you follow the ideas here and make a decision that you think is beneficial, why do you have to worry about good and bad?"
These words were not meant to persuade people to do good, they even contained a bit of extreme self-interested indifference, but Xia Keyan taught Xia Wuyou like this, and it didn't seem that there was any pressure on him.
After all, she used to be a good dancer. She has long passed the age of judging things by right and wrong, and she has nothing to do with innocence and simplicity. If there is anyone in this world who deserves to be missed, I am afraid that she is the only niece who depends on each other for life. .
That's why I have to teach her this way to save her from being dragged down by meaningless emotions.
"Not to mention that we have to rely on someone else now, so there's no point in competing with him, right?"
"After all... we have more important things to do."
"..."
Xia Wuyou was speechless after hearing the words and just nodded silently.
It doesn't seem to be mentioned on a channel... But Xia Keyan's words are correct. The so-called "more important things" naturally refer to the destruction of "Refraction" back then.
Although the two of them rarely mentioned this on their own initiative, their desire to find the truth was tacit.
The white-haired lolita has nightmares because of this - the greatest tragedy is to watch a tragedy happen but not be able to do anything about it.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult to find the truth just by relying on you and me... Fortunately, I have someone to rely on now, which finally gives me some hope."
Xia Keyan sighed, "But now is not the time. When the time comes, I will talk to Xu Shi."
"But this matter has nothing to do with him... right?"
Xia Wuyou expressed his understanding, but he couldn't help but wonder, "Even if you talk to him, aunt, will he definitely agree?"
“Always have to try.”
The white-haired Loli smiled and said, who knew that Xu Shi's target was not only her niece, but also her.
The little boy was quite ambitious... Recalling the ambiguous interaction between the two of them in the ward last time, she blushed a little unconsciously.
And since he is useful to him, he can be regarded as a bargaining chip.
Say it again.
"That incident back then may not have anything to do with him."
"Why?"
Xia Wuyou didn't understand, but when he wanted to ask again, he saw that Xia Keyan had already laid down, "Okay, okay, I'm sleepy now that you're back. Go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow."
"……oh."
Xia Wuyou grunted and turned around to wash up. After thinking about it, he suddenly turned back, "Then...where is he?"
"he?"
Xia Keyan closed his eyes, knowing that the person his niece was asking about had changed. "I didn't pay much attention to it, but if I'm not mistaken, the recent expansion of the sin city "Disge" may be inseparable from him. "
"People like Zhang Shijun are no match for him... He might bite him back soon."
She had no doubt about it.
It's just talk, but Xia Keyan can't help but think about it.
With Xu Shi's style, would he really watch something like this happen?
------------------
The next day.
When Youyou woke up soon, the electronic clock on the bedside had already reached eleven o'clock.
Haha, it's been so long. I passed out while talking about work with Jiang Chengcheng last night, and I just woke up now.
Jiang Chengcheng was still sleeping soundly. He just sniffed when he heard the noise, and his arms as delicate as lotus roots rested on him intentionally or unintentionally.
Who knows whether she woke up or not...but it was obvious that she was very happy, with a slight smile on her lips and a trace of aftertaste on her face.
As she said, in her opinion, her body and mind completely belonged to Xu Shi, so it was naturally a happy thing to hand over the things that belonged to Xu Shi to him.
"Still not getting up?"
Xu Shi tidied her messy hair, smiled helplessly, took her hand away and got out of bed.
"……Why?"
Seeing that he was about to leave, Jiang Chengcheng stopped pretending, opened his eyes and subconsciously pulled him in, "Where are you going, Mr. Xu?"
"Go out and do something."
"Then let me go with you?"
"No, it might be a bit dangerous for you. Chengcheng, please have a good rest. I'll give you a day off."
"Oh...then you must be careful."
After hearing what he said, Jiang Chengcheng didn't stop him anymore. He just got up meekly and put on his clothes obediently.
Xu Shi was very pleased with this, held her face in his hands and kissed her before leaving.
After he left, Jiang Chengcheng slowly lay back down, grabbed his pillow, took two deep breaths, let out a long groan of satisfaction, and fell asleep again.
The body is still limp.
