"Ouyang Muchen..." She stretched out her hand to hold her chest, feeling a dull pain there, bit her lip, and said with difficulty: "I didn't expect...you are so...so worried about me. Heh..."

Outside the door, Xie Yao wanted to rush in anxiously, Ouyang Muchen, what are you doing so stupid?Why didn't you tell her that you sent someone to follow her because you were worried that Nie Chu's people would harm her? !
"Of course I don't trust you, Ning Wanqing. If it wasn't like this, wouldn't I have been kept in the dark by you again and again, wearing a big green hat and still not knowing?" He leaned forward suddenly, reaching out to pinch her chin , appreciating her pained expression carefully, "Ning Wanqing, you really make me sick."

"Uh..." Her heart throbbed violently, and she couldn't help moaning, but he pushed her hard onto the bed!
Ning Wanqing fell weakly on the bed, and when she was dizzy, she couldn't get up again.

Ouyang Muchen looked at her coldly: "I almost forgot that besides lying, you are especially good at one skill. Do you know what it is?"

Ning Wanqing closed her eyes.Only in this way can she control not to cry in front of him.

"You are best at pretending to be pitiful," he heard his taunting voice next to his ear, "pretending to be weak and fainting at every turn, this trick has deceived many people, Ning Wanqing?"

"..." She lay on the bed, clutching her chest tightly with her fingers, frowning tightly, unable to utter another word.

She didn't care what he said to make fun of her anymore, she just hoped that he would leave as soon as possible after venting, because she really didn't want to show a weak appearance in front of him.

She gritted her teeth tightly, resisting the urge to moan.Silently admonished myself in my heart, Ning Wanqing, hold back...

Seeing Ning Wanqing who was silent and indifferent, Ouyang Muchen suddenly realized that no matter how much he said, it would not cause any ripples in her heart.

It turns out that the real indifference is not crying, not arguing, not wanton ridicule regardless of face, but that no matter what you do, she will not look back at you.

Ouyang Muchen has never thought of himself as a clown like this moment.

He is so recalcitrant, caressing, and disregarding self-esteem, but to her, it doesn't mean anything.

How is his behavior any different from that of a real clown?
With a sound of "Bang--", Ouyang Muchen slammed the door and left, Ning Wanqing lay on the bed, tears finally dripped from her tightly closed eyes.

She wanted to die immediately more than ever before.Every breath hurt her.A marriage without love is like a city of trapped animals.

Divorce?
No... she will never fall in love with someone else again.And never marry anyone else.

Because in her heart, if the tree called love withers, it will never be able to grow another one.

Love, from germination, to growth, to blooming and bearing fruit, what a sweet and painful process.

However, she never wanted to experience such pain and joy in this life for the second time.

No more arguments, no more hurts, no more tears... Just thinking about such pain makes people despair.

Too tired, Mu Chen.

Xie Yao looked at the gloomy Ouyang Muchen with concern.

"To be honest, you are a bit too much." Xie Yao said.

"Excessive?" Ouyang Muchen sneered, "I thought my endurance had reached its limit."

"Don't be like this," Xie Yao put his hand on Ouyang Muchen's shoulder, "Calm down, or maybe I'll have a drink with you? But it's just this time, don't make an exception."

"Let's go," Ouyang Muchen glanced at him, "It's been a long time since I've had a drink with you."

"It's just your broken stomach, you still want to drink with me?" Xie Yao shoved him on the shoulder, and said disdainfully, "You are tired of work."

"I have a bad stomach, at least the wine is good, unlike some people, who can strip themselves naked when they drink too much. They are obviously quail bodies, but they don't know what to do. They treat themselves like turkeys, and they have to show off to everyone Those two firewood sticks." Ouyang Muchen said quietly.

"Cough... The hero doesn't mention the courage of the year, I said, Mu Chen, can your mouth not be so poisonous?"

"No."

"..."

The two walked out of the living room bickering. Sun Yu was cleaning. Seeing Ouyang Muchen, he hurriedly stepped aside respectfully.

"Thank you." He nodded to her.

Sun Yu lowered his head and smiled, looking very simple and honest.After the two left, she looked up at the upstairs, and a strange smile appeared on her lips.

Ning Wanqing struggled to climb to the side of the bed, stretched out her hand and opened the drawer beside the bed, tremblingly took out the emergency medicine inside.

This is the medicine for acute heart palpitations. She has not taken it for a long time. She thought that her heart had already recovered after the operation, but she did not expect to experience frequent pain recently.

Maybe it really broke.she thinks.

She closed her eyes, put the two pills into her mouth, and swallowed dryly without drinking water.

The moment the bitter pill touched her throat, she felt an uncontrollable nausea. She closed her mouth tightly to stop it, but she couldn't help throwing herself to the side of the bed and spit it out with a "wow".

The partially dissolved pills jingled and rolled down to the floor, Ning Wanqing lay on the edge of the bed, panting lightly, but her stomach tightened, as if urging her to spit out more.

But she hadn't eaten for a long time, her stomach was empty, and all she vomited out was some yellowish bitter water.

Soon, the bedroom was filled with a sour smell unique to vomit.

The light in the room was very dark, and in the turbid air, Ning Wanqing breathed with her mouth wide open like a stranded fish.

This feeling is inexplicably hopeless, yet vaguely familiar.

The heavy and oppressive atmosphere tried to get close to her and hug her like an old friend.As if she was born to stay in the dark.

No... I don't want to do this...

Ning Wanqing slipped off the bed in a state of embarrassment, then ran out with bare feet.

The twilight is falling, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a sun that is about to disappear, trying its best to show its last light.

Ning Wanqing held onto the black carved railing, like a survivor of a catastrophe, looking at the setting sun and smiling.

At this time, the sound of "Tuk Tuk" footsteps sounded from the stairs.

She turned her head and saw the short and thin maid—Sun Yu.

She was wearing a gray dress, like a gray ghost, walking towards her gently and slowly.

The moment Ning Wanqing saw her clearly, an inexplicable fear surged in her heart.She took a step back almost subconsciously, and asked in a trembling voice, "You... what are you going to do?"

The maid kept approaching as if she didn't hear her, and then stopped a meter away from her.

"Ah... ah..." She uttered some vague syllables, pointed to the downstairs, and made a gesture to Ning Wanqing to put rice in her mouth.

Ning Wanqing actually understood: "Are you asking me to eat?"

The maid nodded, showing a relieved smile.

For a moment Ning Wanqing couldn't help being confused, she clearly remembered that she had talked to herself before she fell into the water, but Ouyang Muchen and the others said she was dumb, and she had clearly seen the incompleteness in the other's mouth, could it be Is it really like what Xie Yao said, her memories before falling into the water are all hallucinations that appeared under special circumstances?
She frowned and looked suspiciously at the maid in front of her.

As if aware of the hostess' distrust, the maid showed a hurt expression on her face, lowered her head slightly, and stood there helplessly.

Ning Wanqing's character has always been more prone to sympathize with the weak, seeing her pitiful look now, she really couldn't help but reflect on herself.

Maybe, she really didn't have any malice. It was because she couldn't accept the fact that Butler Su left from the very beginning, so she blamed her and had a bad first impression of her.In fact, for anyone who has just arrived in a strange place, it is not an unforgivable thing to like to observe the new owner?
So, were those things before falling into the water really hallucinations?
She has no tongue, so she must not be able to speak, and besides, if she really wanted to push herself into the water, why did she pick herself up instead?
Could it be that she really wronged her?
Ning Wanqing stood where she was, thoughtful.

The maid stood there silently with her head down, suddenly looked at Ning Wanqing's feet, and then walked quickly into the room.

When she came out again, she was holding a pair of fluffy slippers.

Before Ning Wanqing could react, she had already squatted down and silently put the slippers by her feet.

She raised her head, gave Ning Wanqing a flattering smile, and signaled Ning Wanqing to lift her feet up.

Even if she was a master and servant, Ning Wanqing never wanted a servant to do such a thing for her, so she quickly waved her hand and put on her slippers.

Now, she is really confused.

Seeing that she had put on her shoes, the maid slowly stood up and gave her a naive smile.

Then, she pointed downstairs again, and gestured to her to eat.As if it wasn't enough, he frowned again, and made a movement similar to dissipating the heat.

Seeing her dancing, Ning Wanqing was inexplicably amused.

She decided not to embarrass her anymore: "Thank you, I'll go down to eat right now."

The maid gave her a thumbs up in satisfaction, as if she was praising a child who didn't like to eat.

Wearing fluffy slippers, her feet were really much warmer. Thinking of this, Ning Wanqing smiled at her and said again: "Thank you."

The maid scratched the back of her head in embarrassment, her appearance was really unbelievable.

Ning Wanqing is willing to trust her memory, but she is more willing to trust her eyes.

There is nothing suspicious about the maid's current performance, Ning Wanqing decided to temporarily forget about her falling into the water.

This is not because she is magnanimous, but because of her simple and sloppy nature, she is easy to trust others.

Most of the people she met in her life treated her well. Since she was a child, she met a kind person who took her out of the sea of ​​suffering. A person who is often treated with kindness is always accustomed to believing that most people in the world are nice guy.

They are not good at guessing people's hearts, lack intuition and judgment on the malice from the other party, and wishful thinking that everyone is a good person based on superficial appearances.

Just like a clean mirror, the world projected in her heart is clean and bright.And a heart with a dirty nature must see an ugly world.

Ning Wanqing sat at the table, looking at the four dishes and one soup in front of her.

The dishes are light, but not all vegetarian. There are chicken breasts and lamb chops, but they are not greasy at all, very refreshing and pleasant.

The soup is stewed old wild ginseng with black bones, and some Chinese medicine is added. Fortunately, the smell is not strong, and it smells quite appetizing.

Unexpectedly, the craftsmanship of this unattractive maid is not inferior to that of the previous chef.

She stood aside, silently added a bowl of rice and put it in front of Ning Wanqing.

Ning Wanqing smiled and said, "I can't eat so much." She always eats small meals, but now she doesn't know why she always feels nauseated.

Looking up at the maid's disappointed eyes, she stood up and poured a bowl of soup, and said, "I'll just drink this." Then she asked, "Have you eaten?"

The maid probably didn't expect to be cared by the master, and her face was flustered for a while.Ning Wanqing smiled and pushed the bowl of rice in front of her: "Let's eat together."

The maid waved her hands flattered.

Ning Wanqing simply walked over, pulled her to sit down, and patted her on the shoulder: "It must be very hard after a busy day, let's sit down and eat together, it happens that I am lonely eating alone, just treat it as a companion Me, okay?"

She has a kind tone and a smile in her eyes, and no one can refuse such kindness.

The maid then slowly picked up the chopsticks and picked up the rice bowl under her encouraging eyes.

"Let's eat some food," Ning Wanqing said, "I've worked hard for so long, and if we can't finish it, we have to throw it away, isn't it a pity?"

Hearing this, the maid stopped shoveling rice into her mouth, stretched out her chopsticks, and picked up a lamb chop.

Seeing that she finally stopped restraining her hands and feet, Ning Wanqing lowered her head and drank the soup slowly.I don't know when she developed the habit of not eating, she thought it must be Ouyang Muchen's habit.

Thinking of Ouyang Muchen, a smile just appeared on her face, and then gradually disappeared at the corner of her mouth.

She won't forget the ruthlessness when he slammed the door. Does he really, really hate her that much?

She glanced at the maid sitting across from her who was eating honestly, and thought to herself, is it really my fault this time?
But no matter what the facts were, he never believed her at all.

He ignored her excuses, her reasons, and just decided that she was lying.

In his eyes, is she really that despicable and unbearable?
If it was really her fault, she was willing to apologize to him and the maid, but no matter what, it was impossible to pretend that he hadn't heard the hurtful things he said to her.

Any quarrel between husband and wife is a tragedy that cannot be undone, because you never know how deep a scratch you have left on each other's heart.

For the tens of thousands of days in the future, every time I think about it, the words are still in my ears and vivid in my mind.Time and time again, repeating the initial heartache.

Pain is always more memorable than joy.We never deny that no matter how hard we live, we are looking for small joys from great pains. However, joys are always easy to be forgotten, and only pains last forever.

Not being able to forget the pain is almost an instinct of most people.

Ning Wanqing was halfway through her drink when she suddenly felt a familiar feeling of nausea welling up in her throat, she quickly stood up and walked towards the bathroom.

The maid behind her put down the bowls and chopsticks, silently watching her hurried back with thoughtful eyes.

After dinner, Ning Wanqing received a call from Annie.

"Wanqing, have you forgotten what you promised yourself?"

"Hmm... is there?" Ning Wanqing thought about it, but she couldn't remember what kind of promise she made, so she had no choice but to give up, "Sorry, I can't remember, please Miss Annie kindly remind me Just a moment, okay?"

Annie pretended to cough twice on the other end of the phone: "Tomorrow is the weekend!"

"Uh... what happened to the weekend?" Ning Wanqing looked up at the calendar. It wasn't Valentine's Day, it wasn't Qixi Festival, and it wasn't Annie's birthday. What's so special about it?
"Bad Wanqing, are you pretending to be stupid on purpose, or do you really not remember?" Annie said angrily.

"I really don't remember..." Ning Wanqing said apologetically, "Lately, I seem to be forgetting everything, and I don't know why, Annie, I must have forgotten something important to you, right?"

"Of course it's a very important thing! Ning Wanqing, how dare you forget?" Although the tone was anxious and angry, Ning Wanqing could fully imagine her snickering over there.

"Okay... I was wrong, Miss Annie, I accept the punishment, okay? Just forgive me for once..." Ning Wanqing begged for mercy.

"For the sake of your good attitude in admitting your mistakes, I won't argue with you." Miss Anne said very forgivingly.

"What's the matter?"

"Wanqing, we agreed to go to the orphanage every weekend..." Annie reminded, "Don't miss the appointment! Ning Wanqing, this is a matter of my life."

"A lifelong event?" Ning Wanqing smiled, "I know."

"Are you laughing at me?" Hearing the chuckle from the receiver, Annie said nonchalantly, "Just laugh, anyway, I will definitely catch that man anyway, hehe."

"You are so brave," Ning Wanqing said, "Don't worry, God will not treat a brave and kind girl badly."

Annie smiled happily: "Then let's just say that, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."

"Okay, bye~"

That night, Ouyang Muchen didn't come home until very late, Ning Wanqing bravely dialed his number, and Xie Yao picked up the phone, she seemed a little surprised when she heard Ning Wanqing's voice.

"Is... is he there?" Ning Wanqing asked hesitantly, hoping that he would say yes, but also hope that he would say no.This feeling is very complicated, because he is worried about the other party, so he desperately wants to hear the other party's voice, but it is really him who answers the phone, but he doesn't know what to say.

Are you sorry?No, she couldn't say it.No matter how much she loved him, she still had self-respect.Who has been hurt like that, and can still pretend nothing happened?

Fortunately, Xie Yao on the other end of the phone said, "He's asleep."

Ning Wanqing said "Oh" and was about to hang up the phone when she heard Xie Yao say, "Wanqing, you are worried about him, right?"

"I……"
