There is always slag Gong doting on me [System]
Chapter 2 Objective B
The marshal didn't know that he had become a target A to be trained in Xia Xi's eyes, and was even tied up with a rope like a big wolf dog. He just ordered the doctors who came in a hurry to check Xia Xi's body as soon as possible.
Under the function of the system, the bullet was injected into the position very well, cleverly avoiding all organs, but the wound is large and pierced front and back, pain is unavoidable, especially in the initial healing stage, it will make people feel unbearable pain endure.So the doctor finished the examination and gave Xia Xi a painkiller injection as usual. At the same time, when there was no reply, the system uttered again: "Ding——, the host did not respond. The system draws the card by default. Randomly draw a cute animal transformation card for the host, use this card to make the host transform into a cute animal that fits the image of the host when needed or in an emergency, such as a kitten or a little loli..."
Xia Xi's expression sank before he finished speaking.
——What the hell is this?
Although the system has been unreliable for more than a day or two, things like kittens and lolis are beyond Xia Xi's bottom line, and it is simply intolerable.Jiang Zhanwei, who had been looking at Xia Xi all the time, saw him frowning, but thought it was because the wound hurt too much, and his handsome thick eyebrows also frowned, and asked with his usual expressionless face: "Is it very painful?"
His voice sounded very hoarse, and his broad palms trembled almost invisible, reminding Xia Xi of the call he heard when he fell asleep.Then he raised his head to look at the other party, and saw the man's bearded face, bloodshot eyes, and wrinkled military uniform, which he had never seen before.
Looking at the beads of sweat from the pain on Xia Xi's forehead, Jiang Zhanwei was so distressed that he wished he could replace him with his own body. He couldn't help coaxing him a little bluntly: "It's okay, don't be afraid, bear with it a little longer, and wait for the painkillers to take effect." It hurts, it's okay..."
Marshal is very good at killing people, but he is not good at coaxing people. These two words are repeated over and over again, only not to be afraid and it's okay, and he doesn't even know whether the person who is afraid is Xia Xi or himself.
Xia Xi is indeed afraid of pain, but sometimes, he can bear the pain better than anyone else.He is such a complex of contradictions, he seems to be always in contradictions, he can turn his face and deny people for no reason when he speaks well, and he can suddenly show a moving smile when swords are drawn, perhaps because of this, That's why he perfectly interprets the changeable personalities in the fast-traveling world.
Jiang Zhanwei raised his hand to hold Xia Xi's hand, "Do you feel better, do you want the doctor to look at you again?"
Xia Xi's heart moved slightly, but he tried his best to pull his hand out of Jiang Zhanwei's palm, and then replied: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern."
Excessive politeness is willful rustiness.
A Xie and a you easily opened the distance between the two, and also made Jiang Zhanwei's naturally cold and thin lips tightened, and his hands clenched into fists at the same time, which looked very terrifying.However, Xia Xi remained unmoved at all, and deliberately continued politely: "Can you please let your soldiers outside bring in the servants and subordinates who came to visit me? I think they should be very worried."
Xia Xi, as the most important young master of the Xia family, how could the Xia family just ignore such a major event as being shot and hospitalized, even the old man Xia who had quarreled with him before the accident was unavoidably anxious.Just as Xia Xi expected, the loyal servants who have served him since he was a child and the subordinates who worked with him rushed over as soon as they heard the news, but Jiang Zhanwei's soldiers blocked the entire floor, except for the doctors and nurses. Besides, not even a fly can fly in.
Of course, what Xia Xi really wants to see is not some servants and subordinates, but his newly promoted second brother Jian Bai.
Jiang Zhanwei opened his mouth, trying to explain that he was only out of safety considerations rather than intentionally keeping people from coming in, but in the end he failed to speak out, and only nodded stiffly: "Okay."
He is not good at words. For him, love words or justifications are far more difficult than fighting a battle or doing some practical things silently for Xia Xi. Come and explain to someone.
And Xia Xi's charm may lie in this, no matter how much you cherish him, tolerate him and please him, he will never bow his head easily.
Jiang Zhanwei stood on the spot, staring at Xia Xi's face without blinking, his eyes alternated between forbearance and love, and there was a shocking light in the half-bright and half-dark shadows, like a flame quietly burning in the bottom of his eyes .
Perhaps due to the influence of traveling through the world before, Xia Xi had an indescribable rejection of the hospital. If the wound was not too painful and could not withstand the bumps, I am afraid that he would not want to stay in the hospital for a second.So not long after Shiyu, Lianqiu and other servants came in, they changed the pale and empty ward, and decorated it almost as gorgeous and warm as a bedroom.The window sills are filled with tulips that Xia Xi likes; on the table are books and picture albums he loves to read;I can't wait to treat my young master as a god statue to be offered, and every hair will be served steadily.
Dusk is approaching, the setting sun melts gold, and the evening clouds merge.
The handsome young man was leaning on the soft pillow at the head of the bed, his eyes drooping vacantly, and the setting sun slanted in from the large window on his left, filling the whole room and staining his beautiful profile face and figure. When he got to Phnom Penh, he looked more eye-catching than Adonis in Greek mythology. Even Shiyu, who had been with Xia Xi for the longest time, was caught breathless by the beautiful scenery and did not dare to disturb him.
So when Jian Bai walked into the ward, what greeted his eyes was such a picturesque scene.
The timing of Jian Bai's arrival was exactly as Xia Xi had expected. He arrived just before sunset, and brought with him apples and yellow roses that he hated.Just when Xia Xi was about to open his eyes to welcome the guests, the system's notification sound suddenly sounded in his head: "Ding——, a scum of level A has been found, and this scum can be locked as the target of the attack. May I ask the host?" Do you confirm the lock?"
This time, Xia Xi's mood was very calm, and he was not at all dazed when he heard the reminder from the scum last time.But unexpectedly, the system repeated this sentence twice in succession.
——That is definitely not emphasizing or deliberately reminding, but it means that two goals have appeared at the same time.
I couldn't help looking up at the door, only to find that besides Jian Bai, there was another man in military uniform rushing in to report the matter to Jiang Zhanwei, who had been lingering all along, and Xia Xi's lazily raised eyes met He stared at it for two and a half seconds.
This person looks handsome, tall and tall, and wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He doesn't have much of a soldier's evil spirit, but is full of the kindness of a Confucian scholar.His appearance looked familiar, Xia Xi vaguely remembered seeing him once before, he seemed to be a very capable lieutenant general under Jiang Zhanwei.In fact, Xia Xi only met Jian Bai two or three times in a strict sense. The most recent time was when he sat at a table under the auspices of Xia's father and had a bland meal without even in-depth communication.
"Well," Xia Xi couldn't help smiling while replying to the system's question, "Confirm the lock."
It's so ironic that I have to laugh.But in a blink of an eye, the number of kung fu scumbags has reached three, and with another one, they can sit together and play mahjong. The scumbags in this world are indeed contending, with various poses.
Jian Bai was flattered by Xia Xi's smile at the first moment, and matched it with just the right amount of concern: "Xiaoxi, my father asked me to see you for him. How do you feel now? Is the wound completely out of danger? How long did the doctor say before I could be discharged?"
"Ding——," the system's voice almost overlapped with Jian Bai's: "The attack target has been locked and set as target B and target C respectively. May the host want to read the basic information of target B and target C now? ?”
While answering the system in his mind, Xia Xi answered Jian Bai in his mouth: "...the doctor said it's all right, and he will be discharged from the hospital in three or four weeks at most."
But Jian Bai could clearly see that when he said he was fine, the black hair on his forehead was already wet with fine cold sweat, and the bed sheet was deformed by the hands hidden by his side, and most of his usual superior demeanor and tone disappeared because of this. , leaving only indescribable softness.Especially those beautiful eyes, misty with pain, filled with a layer of weakness, it seems that anyone can easily hurt him, but he is so harmless.
People are creatures that can be confused by appearances. Even though they knew that Xia Xi and Wuhai couldn't get along, Jian Bai couldn't help but feel moved. The concern on his face was more like that. Sitting on Xia Xi's bedside Frowning, "Xiaoxi, just say what hurts, don't hold back..."
The gunshot wound was an open wound, which was prone to inflammation and fever. Xia Xi had already started to have a fever. Not only did his vision become blurred, but his brain became dizzy, but he still insisted on mobilizing all his energy to listen to all the continuous system sounds.
Ding——, now read the basic information of target B.Name: Jian Bai, Identity: The second son of the Xia family, scum level: A, reason for level determination: Extremely selfish and greedy for power, and keen to take pleasure in deceiving, using and framing others.
Ding——, now read target B's favorability and loyalty to the host.Target B Jianbai's favorability towards the host is: 0 points, and the loyalty value of the dog is: 0 points.
Ding——, now read the basic information of Objective C.Name: Chen Zizhen, Status: Lieutenant General of Luobei Federal State, Scum Level: A, Reason for Level Judgment: Extremely playful, and likes to use cruel means to abuse clean and beautiful young people.
Ding——, now read target C's favorability and loyalty to the host.Target C Chen Zizhen's favorability towards the host is: 15 points, loyalty value: 0 points...
……
Naturally, Jian Bai couldn't hear the system's voice, and could only see Xia Xi staring at him steadily, his already hazy eyes became more and more blurred, as if he saw someone else through him.In the end, he yelled in a daze, "...Brother, it hurts so much."
Jian Bai was taken aback for a moment.
As we all know, there are three sons in the Xia family, the eldest son Xia Chen who severed ties with his family five years ago and devoted himself to the anti-imperial cause, the second son Jian Bai who was just taken back to the Xia family, and the youngest son Xia Xi.And what Xia Xi thinks and calls is no one other than his elder brother Xia Chen.
Jian Bai knew this very well, but couldn't help but imagine that he could make the proud young man in front of him call his brother in a softer and more intimate tone than he was calling Xia Chen at this moment.He wanted to deceive him wholeheartedly, and then use him thoroughly, and listened to him call brother in the most obedient manner——that kind of scene made me feel an inexplicable surge of emotion, as if he had received something new An uncontrollable tremor like a challenge.
"Xiaoxi," Jian Baiqiang suppressed the trembling, took advantage of the situation to hold the hand of the young man who was still in a trance, and said in a low voice: "Okay, my brother is here."
Well, well, indeed.Xia Xi lowered his eyes to cover up the sarcasm in his eyes, and nodded silently in his heart.
Since the system said that Target B is keen on cheating and using, he deliberately lured him to cheat and use.At that time, you will be false, and I will be false; I need to bother to find an opportunity to attack you, but I can sit and wait for you to take the initiative to "attack" me without doing anything, which is naturally very good.
At this time, Xia Xi's hand was snatched away from Jian Bai's by a big palm thrusting obliquely. It was Jiang Zhanwei's sharp-edged face.
——It was just a handshake between brothers, and the marshal became jealous, and he explained in depth what a jealous man is.
Jiang Zhanwei looked at Xia Xi with eyes as deep as the sea, even showing a trace of grievance that was barely visible, but his gaze towards Jian Bai was full of coldness, even though he tried his best to contain the oppressive feeling on his body, there was still a trace of murderous aura floating on his brows , the corners of his eyes were blood red.At the same time, the system sounded dutifully: "Ding——, target A's loyal dog value has increased by 4 points, and the current loyal dog value is 14."
The loyal dog value has increased by 4 points in this way. It is really amazing my marshal. It was the first time I heard that someone increased the loyal dog value because of jealousy. It is simply a natural jealous jar.
Xia Xi narrowed his eyes slightly,—it turned out that Jiang Zhanwei's breakthrough point was jealousy, that's really... what a pity.
The author has something to say:
Spoof Little Theater:
When the 'Cute Animal Transformation Card' takes effect...
—— Xia Xi really turned into a five-year-old little loli.
Fortunately, the body is still a straight lady, just wearing a loli dress, coupled with the cold expression and puffy face, she is even cuter than a real little loli, and the five clearing targets are desperately striving to be guardians.
"My baby is called Daddy." All the targets of the attack looked at the toddler version of Xia Xi with bright eyes, "I will give you everything if you call me."
"Call me Daddy?" Xia Xi, who finally returned to normal, looked down on the beasts who lowered their heads and honestly admitted their mistakes: "Kneel down and call me Daddy!!"
Under the function of the system, the bullet was injected into the position very well, cleverly avoiding all organs, but the wound is large and pierced front and back, pain is unavoidable, especially in the initial healing stage, it will make people feel unbearable pain endure.So the doctor finished the examination and gave Xia Xi a painkiller injection as usual.
