Two hours later, in the living room on the first floor.
A special interview with Jincheng University was being broadcast on the TV. Leng Lingxiao sat upright and said thoughtfully: "Centennial anniversary of the school, a win-win future, not bad, it sounds pretty awesome."
At this time, Tang Xiaowan was leaning on the sofa, yawning, and staring at the screen with dull almond-shaped eyes, as if they would close at any time.
"Flower."
The voice was small, and if Leng Lingxiao hadn't been sitting close, it would have been difficult to hear.
"What's wrong, Tangtang?"
"Why isn't Lao Zhao coming?"
"Old Zhao?" Leng Lingxiao said in surprise.
In fact, Zhao Renjie had arrived at Jinyuan Academy an hour ago and had brought a new set of clothes to Leng Lingxiao from Building 28. He was currently discussing car maintenance with Cheng Shi in the yard.
"Well, that's right, Lao Zhao."
Tang Xiaowan rubbed her eyes, turned sideways, and added: "He can't come to pick you up. In fact, Cheng Shi can do it, Meijuan can drive, and Granny Yu seems to be able to do it, too. They are all hidden."
Leng Lingxiao: "..."
"What a mess, are you sleepy? I'm staying in Building 28 in front of you tonight. Didn't I tell you just now? Did you forget?"
"Well, Building 28, I'm so sleepy."
"Go upstairs, I'm leaving."
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaowan stood up quickly and yawned: "I'll see you off."
"No, go upstairs quickly."
"Oh, okay, then slow down."
In this way, Tang Xiaowan went upstairs in a daze, and Leng Lingxiao also returned to his apartment.
…
Second floor, gym.
At this time, Grandma Yu and Wang Meijuan were still asleep. One was knitting a sweater, and the other was carefully wiping the wooden floor with a rag.
The two of them chatted about home affairs without saying a word, talking about what vegetables to buy tomorrow morning, whether to make dumplings, etc. It wasn't until they heard Tang Xiaowan closing the door that they looked at each other and put down what they were doing.
"Mother-in-law, are you okay?"
Wang Meijuan approached and spoke first.
"She's okay, you are. You were too calm at night. The lady will ask you tomorrow morning."
"I'm afraid something will happen, so I can't just bandage it up. Mr. Leng's injury is not shallow, it's very deep."
"Cheng Shi asked and said he had learned first aid."
"His pig brain doesn't know how to... Oh, well, you can actually say that if you ask me, Miss, we have so many talented people in Meiyuan."
"The old lady, and Mr. Leng, are worried about the young lady."
"What happened to the lady that night? Did someone really want to kill her? I still haven't figured it out. I always feel that it's not that simple."
"I don't know, just stay alive."
After Grandma Yu said this, she started knitting again.
"Mother-in-law, I'm the latest here. Please tell me... what happened to the young lady in the past. What is the situation between her and Mr. Leng? Why does Mr. Leng only see the old lady and the young lady alone every time he goes to Meiyuan? Don’t you want to talk to us?”
Grandma Yu smoothed her white hair from her temples, raised her eyebrows and said, "Weren't you recommended by Mr. Leng?"
"Do you know all this?"
"I don't know. I don't know anything. It's getting late. Let's rest early."
After saying that, Granny Yu left the gym.
The bamboo basket containing the wool balls was not taken away. Wang Meijuan picked it up curiously, looked at it, and made some gestures on herself.
"It looks good, but it's a bit big!"
"Yeah, but it's okay. Miss likes loose fitting ones, which make it easier to move around."
"It's beautiful, so beautiful!"
Within a few minutes, Cheng Shi pushed open the door and walked in. As Granny Yu expected, he asked about stitching up Leng Lingxiao's wound that night.
In fact, he had wanted to ask since he finished eating, but because of the crowd, he had held back until now.
"In order to get more money, I learned first aid."
"In your old housekeeping job?"
"Yeah, can't you?"
"Of course, that's good. Then tell me, what's the safest way to deal with a fracture? For example... the situation caused by a car accident, where the body is squeezed."
"Similar to each other, the main thing is to see..."
Before Wang Meijuan had time to elaborate, there was a sudden loud noise.
"It's broken, it fell down!"
Cheng Shi: "?"
The two of them quickly ran to Tang Xiaowan's bedroom.
"Miss, miss, wake up quickly."
Wang Meijuan patted him twice, and when there was no response, he directly picked him up and put him on the bed. Then he went to the medicine box to get a silver needle.
Cheng Shi: "?"
You can’t tell, but he’s quite strong!
Last time I removed the monitor, this time I sewed up the wound.
How much talent do you still have hidden away?
At this time, Granny Yu also came after hearing the sound. She was not as surprised as Cheng Shi. She was thinking about all kinds of things in her mind, so she just touched Tang Xiaowan's head, and then stood aside and watched calmly.
"Just let out some blood?" Cheng Shi asked.
Wang Meijuan put the silver needle away and nodded: "It's okay, just take a nap and you'll be fine. It's caused by overdose. Let's go."
"No need to wake up?" Cheng Shi stopped Wang Meijuan and asked again.
"If you don't understand, don't get involved. Let's go."
"It's okay, let's go." Grandma Yu said.
Cheng Shi nodded: "Okay."
Immediately, everyone left Tang Xiaowan's bedroom and went back to their respective rooms quietly.
The night is already dark, and it’s really time to sleep.
But Cheng Shi lay on the bed, resting his arms on his pillow, tossing and turning for a long time, but couldn't fall asleep and was too irritable.
He really couldn't worry about Tang Xiaowan.
Wang Meijuan's acupuncture process kept flooding into his mind, and doubts gradually deepened.
"Just let out some blood?"
Cheng Shi suddenly sat up and glanced at his rough hands.
"Is it reliable? The fall just now was not light. Don't break your brain and get into trouble. You were stimulated again at night.
After talking to himself, he suddenly got out of bed.
"The same goes for Mr. Leng, why did he stab himself? The lady must be frightened!"
"You won't have nightmares about falling again, will you?"
"No, I have to go take a look."
In the end, Cheng Shi tiptoed to the second floor, but he did not enter Tang Xiaowan's room. He just sat on the floor, leaning against the wall, staring at the dark red solid wood door with burning eyes.
At the corner of the third floor, Granny Yu nodded with a smile on her face, and then went back to her room.
…
On the other side, Building 28.
On the solid wood bed, Leng Lingxiao covered his wound and turned over with difficulty.
The reason why he didn't sleep was because he was waiting for news.
Suddenly, Zhao Renjie knocked on the door: "Master."
"Come in."
"It is indeed caused by a drug overdose. I just had an injection and have already fallen asleep. It is estimated that it will not be until... around ten o'clock tomorrow morning."
After finishing his words, Leng Lingxiao clenched his teeth.
Zhao Renjie said nothing more, but stood respectfully at the door, quietly waiting for his master to issue new instructions.
After a long pause, Leng Lingxiao said with red eyes: "Let's change the medicine."
The voice was low and revealed helplessness.
"Master, if you change the medicine now, Miss Tang's memory will never be restored. When the time comes, you and her..."
"I can't help it, Tangtang is too impatient!"
Zhao Renjie took a few steps forward, intending to persuade him again, but saw Leng Lingxiao's eyes tightly closed, tears falling down, looking very painful, so he had no choice but to step back and close the door gently.
