Cai Xiaotang was too lazy to pay attention to him and replied directly: "If you eat it, take it away. If you don't eat it, throw it away."
Li Xiao immediately shut up and said no more. He was afraid that he would really make people anxious, so he planned to leave.
Cai Xiaotang suddenly spoke again: "Hey!"
Li Xiao stopped for a moment, turned around and looked at her, and then heard her ask: "How long do you plan to stay here before going back? Give me a specific time."
"this……"
Li Xiao knew why she wanted to go back early. His mood, which had just recovered a little, suddenly sank again.
Is she so determined to go back and get divorced?
Li Xiao was silent for two seconds. In desperation, he still found an excuse and said perfunctorily: "This is really undecided for the time being. I promise you that I will return to China as soon as the matter here is settled. Is that okay?"
"You better hurry up."
Cai Xiaotang didn't say anything more, just turned around and picked up another plate.
Li Xiao looked at her deeply, turned around and walked towards the stairs.
He went directly back to his room, closed the door, put his dinner aside, and walked to the window alone.
The sunset outside the window was just right, but he frowned, not in the mood to appreciate it, and his mind was filled with what happened in the kitchen just now.
Although a little naive...
But he had to admit that he just wanted to experience more of the feeling of being "taken care of" by her.
It seemed that since he rejected her confession, the time between the two of them seemed to have entered a countdown and would end at any time.
But he didn't want to.
I don't know when he started, but he seemed to have gotten used to having a noisy little woman next to him.
Although he sometimes causes a little trouble, he is more sincere and free than anyone else, attracting his attention all the time...
The relaxation he felt when he was with her was something he hadn't experienced in a long time...
Li Xiao's eyes flickered for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and turned around and went to the table.
He opened the drawer and took out a small box.
When the lid of the box is opened, you can see a small ring lying inside.
It was the same ring that the two people exchanged when they got married.
Li Xiao carefully picked up the ring and placed it in his palm.
He doesn't know why he carries this gadget with him...
But every time I see it, I feel inexplicably in a good mood.
Li Xiao stared at the ring for a long time before putting it back and closing the drawer with a helpless smile on his face.
Now there seems to be no other way besides delaying time?
He had been protecting Cai Xiaotang all along, but in the end, he was the most timid one.
He didn't dare to face her feelings, let alone his own.
So what if you like it?
Some things should never be repeated a second time.
…
A week later——
Li Xiao hung his arm and went to the hospital for a review.
Although I really wanted to keep it up like this for a while, having one arm hanging was really too much of a hindrance to my movement.
In a private hospital, a foreign doctor in a white coat was carefully examining the X-rays in his hands.
"Li, there's nothing serious about your injury. It's just a slight bone fracture. Based on your normal recovery, in my opinion, you don't even need a plaster. Your men are making too much of a fuss..."
As the doctor spoke, he put the film aside and shrugged.
Li Xiao felt helpless when he heard this: "I said no plaster was needed at the beginning, but who told you to cooperate with them..."
The tone of communication between the two people sounded very familiar, and the man did not shy away from Li Xiao's identity. It seemed that they had known each other for a long time.
As the man spoke, he took out the tools: "Raise your hand, and I will help you remove the plaster..."
"Wait a moment!"
Seeing that he was about to take action immediately, Li Xiao hurriedly spoke to stop him, looking a little hesitant.
"What's wrong?"
The man looked at him puzzled.
Li Xiao's eyes flickered for a moment and he said nothing. All he thought about was Cai Xiaotang.
In the past few days, the two of them had very little communication every day.
Except for meeting in the kitchen during meal times, or when Li Xiao took the initiative to ask for help for something, Cai Xiaotang stayed in her room almost every day.
The most asked question is when will his injury heal.
Li Xiao frowned slightly and looked down at his arms, his face a little tangled.
If she knew that she was almost healed, she would immediately plan to return to China and get divorced...
"James, just help me cut the bandage. There is no need to remove the plaster."
Li Xiao thought for a moment and finally made a decision.
"Ah? Don't dismantle it? Are you serious? Don't you think it's too heavy to carry such a thing with you every day?"
The doctor was a little surprised. After saying that, he suddenly realized something and joked with a wicked smile: "Oh... I see, you don't want to keep this and want your wife to feel sorry for you, right? "
He hit the nail on the head with the truth.
An unnatural look flashed across Li Xiao's face, and he instantly flicked away the glare.
The man immediately stretched out his hand and made a zipper gesture on his mouth, then took out the scissors and quickly removed the gauze on his hand.
Finally regaining his "freedom", Li Xiao immediately moved around and felt much more comfortable.
In addition to being a little heavy on the hand, the movement will not be greatly affected.
"It's just a piece of gauze. You can do it at home. Why do you come all the way to me?"
The man complained speechlessly.
Li Xiao was too lazy to answer. He just patted him on the shoulder and said, "OK, thank you."
Then he turned around and left without looking back.
Half an hour later——
He returned to the villa.
Before entering, Li Xiao couldn't help but look at his arms, a dark light flashed in his eyes.
This should delay it for a while longer...
As he thought about it, he couldn't help but show a self-deprecating look on his face.
It's too bad of him to think of such a way to retain people...
Li Xiao complained to himself in his heart as he opened the door and walked in.
Then as soon as he entered the door, he saw Cai Xiaotang sitting in the living room, holding the remote control with an expressionless face and constantly changing channels on the TV.
On the screen, a group of foreign women in swimsuits were on the beach, seemingly playing some variety show.
Li Xiao glanced at it and was about to speak when he saw Cai Xiaotang suddenly stand up from the corner of his eye.
"If I want to go shopping now, is it safe to be alone?"
She asked Li Xiao, her tone sounding as if she was extremely bored.
Li Xiao curled his lips when he heard this and immediately replied: "Of course, I will accompany you wherever you want to go."
"No, I can do it alone!"
Cai Xiaotang immediately refused without a second thought, leaving no room for negotiation.
