Chapter 12
After lunch at half past twelve, there was still an hour before departure. Xiao Jin sat on the sofa, pressing her forehead with one hand, looking discomfort. She had a headache, but it was not the sudden sharp pain in the hospital these days, but the feeling that there were thousands of ants inside, as if biting at the same time, it was getting more and more painful, dense and dense.
Sweat slowly appeared on her forehead, and it touched her eyelashes, making her vision blurry.
After Mu Zixi came out of the kitchen, she saw her teeth clenched and her face was in pain. She walked over quickly and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Jin pressed his temple with his fingers, which was useless to relieve the pain. He turned his attention to Muzhixi, looking a little pitiful: "Do you have any painkillers here?"
"Yes." But Mu Zhenxi didn't move and whispered worriedly, "But is it better for you to go to the hospital like this? Is there something wrong with the wound on your head?"
"No." Xiao Jin replied, "It's just a headache. Just take medicine and take a rest."
Mu Zhenxi looked at her for two seconds, stepped forward and pulled her hair and checked her. There was no problem with the wound, but she was still worried and frowned: "I'll take you to the hospital."
"It's useless." Xiao Jin endured the pain that was almost about to penetrate her brain. He let down his hand tiredly, gently pulled Mu Zhixi's wrist, and said in a silence, "Pain relief medicine."
Mu Zixi's throat moved, but in the end he didn't say anything. He turned around and went to the bedroom to get her a box of ibuprofen, poured a cup of hot water and put it on the coffee table.
"Thank you." Xiao Jin thanked politely, no longer able to think about anything else. He was skillful in his movements, as if he had done it a thousand times, quickly swallowed the medicine, and then put on the sofa.
The medicine took effect for about half an hour, and the painkiller had little effect for Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin lay on his side, wrapped a blanket on his body, curled up together, and his teeth were fighting, and his upper and lower teeth made a slight bump, and his face turned pale. He was both awake and drowsy. He obviously wanted to sleep but couldn't fall asleep.
She unconsciously began to hit the sofa under the pillow with her head.
There was a wound on her head that had just been removed. Xiao Jin knew that she could not do this, but it hurt too much, like an axe or a saw. She saw her nerves one by one, and her ears were buzzing. She bit her lower lip tightly, her forehead tightly against the inside of the sofa, and a dull and inverted sound came from her chest.
In a confused consciousness, she felt a warm hand pressing her on her forehead, snatch her from the sofa, and then her temples on both sides were gently pressed by slender fingers.
"Does it hurt?" is a familiar woman's voice, low and soft, full of love and pity.
She had dreamed of this sound countless times in every night when she had a split headache, but when she woke up, she could only face the empty room. She had been waiting for this day for too long.
"It doesn't hurt." Xiao Jin quickly blinked the tears in his eyes.
"Aren't you afraid of pain?" The woman's tone was a little confused.
"You're afraid." Xiao Jin put his arms around her, frowned and murmured, "It hurts now."
An unknown chuck fell on top of his head.
The smile ended and turned into a slight sigh.
The woman seemed to touch her face, and the skin on her fingertips was so delicate that she wanted to cry.
Xiao Jin's consciousness gradually fell into darkness.
When she woke up, the touch under her body was not right and was incredibly soft. She turned her eyes a few times under her nose and slowly opened her eyes. The light was dim, the curtains were closed, the outline of a lazy sofa in front of the window, and a poster was attached to the back of the door facing the bed.
Xiao Jin looked down at the quilt covered with her body, and confirmed that it was in Mu Zixi's room.
The pain in her brain was still faint, but it was much better than before. She sat up with her body, restored the bed of Mu Zixi to its original state, and opened the door with a creak.
The living room was filled with sunshine. Mu Zixi sat on the sofa in the center of the living room. He looked up as soon as he heard the sound: "You are awake." He breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sorry." Xiao Jin apologized, "when is it now?"
Mu Zhenxi looked at her phone: "One 35, it's time to tell her that you are not feeling well. She pushed her back for an hour. Let's go." She said as she stood up and walked towards the door. She deliberately slowed down and bent down to change her shoes. Then she pretended to ask inadvertently, "When did you have any headaches?"
It is midsummer and people are prone to sleep. She wanted to take a nap at noon, but when she closed her eyes, Xiao Jin curled up in a ball of cold sweat. She was a daughter who was afraid of pain. She didn't see her in pain like this before. Even her clothes were soaked in cold sweat. Why did she be so skillful when taking medicine? Does it hurt frequently?
Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't remember."
Mu Zhenxi sneered and thought that she was confused when she cared for her, and she actually forgot that she had lost her memory.
Xiao Jin waited for her to change her shoes, and consciously held the shoe cabinet and changed her shoes, comforting her and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem, don't worry."
Mu Zhenxi wanted to retort, "Who is worried about you, but this sentence is so obvious that it makes me feel so obvious, so I swallowed it."
Mu Zhenxi pushed open the door, gave way out, and waited silently for Xiao Jin to come out.
Xiao Jin took two steps and arrived outside the door. The door closed with a click. Xiao Jin's eyes fell on the door lock. He stayed for a second, then lowered his eyes and left Mu Zixi.
The elevator went down, and Xiao Jin looked at the changing numbers, suddenly shook his mind and held the wall of the sedan chair with his hand. Mu Zixi noticed her abnormality and turned her head to look at it: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Jin closed his eyes, blinked the sudden blood red from his vision, and said calmly: "Nothing."
Mu Zixi: "Doesn't it feel uncomfortable to take the elevator head?"
Xiao Jin wanted to say no, but was afraid that Mu Zhixi would ask questions, so he followed her words and raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, and said with a little tiredness: "Yes."
Mu Zhenxi didn't say anything else. Xiao Jin was thinking about other things and had no time to care about her coldness.
This time, I arrived at the underground parking lot. Mu Zhenxi took two steps and suddenly turned around to remind Xiao Jin, who was a little absent-minded behind him to follow him. Xiao Jin looked at her blankly as if she had just been awakened.
Mu Zixi sighed and had no choice but to go forward and hold her wrist.
Xiao Jin blinked, abandoned all distracting thoughts, and focused on looking at the exquisite side face of the wooden pillow stream in front of him.
Mu Zixi opened the door of the passenger seat and raised his chin. Xiao Jin sat in spontaneously, tied up his seat belt, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked up at her with a look of seeking credit.
She gave birth to a pair of very special eyes, which could not be simply defined by nouns such as phoenix eyes and peach blossom eyes. They were long but not thin, with wide corners of their eyes, and a very elegant curve to the end of her eyes. Her double eyelids were very obvious, and her eyelashes were long and dense, so when she looked up, her eyes were clear, with a kind of simplicity and innocence that only children could have.
Mu Zixi just wore a seat belt if she wanted to do anything, but her tight pursed lips still softened without knowing it.
Mu Zixi deliberately raised his face and said lightly: "Look down."
Xiao Jin lowered his head as he said.
Mu Zixi pulled her hair away and looked at the wound. After confirming that she was fine, she said, "Okay, sit down."
Xiao Jin immediately sat upright, put his palms on his knees, then tilted his head, and looked at her with a look of seeking credit. This time he was a little arrogant and proud.
A little cute. Mu Zixi felt soft and his fingers that were holding the car door moved, almost unable to resist the urge to touch her face.
She looked away from Xiao Jin's face with difficulty, opened the driver's seat door, sat in, and started the car.
When she made an appointment with Ms. Huang in a cafe opposite the office building where the other party works, Mu Zhenxi parked her car to a nearby parking lot and walked over with Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin looked at the surrounding buildings left and right, full of curiosity, as if she didn't know what this behavior was. Mu Zhenxi looked at her ignorant side face and walked towards her. Xiao Jin instinctively leaned against Mu Zhenxi, holding her arm, and every move was full of trust in her.
A trace of entanglement flashed in Mu Zixi's expression. The hand hanging on the other side gently clenched its fist, let go, and slowly breathed out.
She must send Xiao Jin away.
But I still felt reluctant to leave in my heart.
She suddenly stopped.
Xiao Jin turned his head and asked her strangely: "What's wrong?"
Mu Zixi lowered his eyelashes uncomfortably, looked at the dessert station on the roadside, and said, "I want to eat ice cream."
Xiao Jin laughed and smiled softly: "I'll buy it for you?"
Mu Zixi shook her head and pursed her lips: "I'll go by myself."
Xiao Jin defeated it and said, "Go together, you don't feel at ease if I'm waiting for you alone."
Muzhaixi nodded.
There are four or five in front of the dessert station. It is summer vacation now, and there are many students wandering outside, and they all look like students. Mu Zhenxi feels out of place with these people, so she backs down when she gets in front of her. The most important thing is that she knows that she is using the purchase of ice cream to delay time, and she always feels a little weird.
"What if it's not..." She turned around and said to Xiao Jin, her arms were empty, Xiao Jin had already let go of her hand and lined up front by herself.
Mu Zixi looked at her back and smiled faintly.
This is not the first time Xiao Jin bought ice cream for her. Mu Zhenxi and her grandmother depend on each other and were poor. She had to make two petals of flowers for a penny. She was even short of money even when she changed into new clothes and shoes. Moreover, she always stayed away from this when she bought such luxurious snacks. But at that age, she saw other classmates making an appointment to buy ice cream after school, and each one had one, and she would be greedy and envious. But she hid it very well, and her friends thought she didn't like to eat it.
Only Xiao Jin saw that during physical education class, she invited the whole class to eat ice cream, including her. In order to maintain her character of not loving ice cream, Mu Zhenxi was expressionless throughout the whole process. Xiao Jin sat quietly beside her, with her feet hanging in the air, gently swaying, and her shoulders touched her from time to time, as if unintentional or intentional, and the girl's body fragrance blew across the tip of her nose with the breeze.
Mu Zixi couldn't help but chuckled softly.
Xiao Jin laughed too, because she laughed.
The smell of ice cream has been left in Mu Zixi's heart since then, with a strawberry flavor.
Later, Xiao Jin bought it for her only one person. She always had various excuses. She bought too much, and after buying it, she felt that the taste was definitely not delicious. Anyway, she just forced it to her.
Later, they received a kiss with various ice cream flavors...
"Muzhenxi, what flavor do you want to eat?" Xiao Jin's sudden inquiry interrupted her memory.
Mu Zixi pursed her lips and was about to answer, Xiao Jin suggested: "Is the strawberry flavor OK?"
Mu Zhenxi was slightly stunned, and for a moment, it seemed that she was taken back to the past. Xiao Jin asked again, and Mu Zhenxi came to her senses, put one hand in her pocket, and nodded gently.
She looked at the glass door at the agreed location from afar, took a deep breath, and calmed down. Ms. Huang should be waiting.
The author has something to say: Xibao: I must send her away [Close the fist] [Try hard]
Jinbao: I'm my person after eating my ice cream ╰(*°▽°*)╯
