the one who lives in my body

Because of my disgusting memories, even if it might hinder his recovery, he would choose to avoid it. In other words, the culprit who made Xie Dongrong avoid his recovery was actually me.

I suddenly understood what was going on with his malicious eyes with a little anger.

I used to be thankful that people can have a skin to disguise themselves. Any mood can be hidden under the skin. Those short and dirty thoughts are often fleeting. I never feel that it is a fault. I have a clear conscience, because Anyway, on the surface, I did nothing.

But when there is another person in this world who can read your mind and even analyze your thoughts, everything will be different.

I couldn't help but get creeped out and even start to fear that he would know more.

In his eyes, every slight movement of my thoughts is a mistake.

People say that the more you know a person, the harder it is for you to fall in love with him. Love often breeds in anticipation of the unknown, so how can I expect Xie Dongrong to fall in love with me like this?

Fortunately, he will never know what I am thinking now.

He has talked to this point, naturally, I have no position to "persuade" him to do anything.

The atmosphere that had finally eased up, became awkward again at this moment.

I found that Xie Dongrong and I were like this, every time I thought our relationship could get closer, an incident would mercilessly push everything back to the starting point.

"One slap, one candy"?Xie Dongrong's "policy" towards me can roughly be summed up in this way.

Regardless of whether he did it on purpose or not, anyway, this situation is already uncomfortable enough.

Looking at Xie Dongrong who was frowning slightly at this moment, he must have felt the same way.

That night, I sat at the desk again and worked tirelessly for my "career" until late at night, while Xie Dongrong on the other side of the screen was sitting on the bed and reading a book with the night light on. We didn't talk anymore, and the room was silent , time seems to freeze.

When I was about to rest, I turned around and saw that the lights at Xie Dongrong's side had been turned off at some point. I didn't dare to sneak over to see him like last night. I just set the alarm clock in advance, hoping to get up earlier tomorrow.

Without waking Xie Dongrong up, I got dressed and went out.

I went to bed late at night, and the time is really too early now, so at this moment I am almost half asleep and half awake.

At this time, the sky was not yet fully bright, and the dim light and mist blurred my vision. I squinted my eyes and walked forward in a daze based on memory.

The destination is the back garden.

Under such a sky, from a distance, the chestnut tree looks like a big tree growing in a fairyland.

This chestnut tree is so big, I am afraid there is no bigger chestnut tree in the whole capital. No wonder my uncle couldn't hide his pride when he mentioned it. He told me during the night talk , I chose this house largely because of this tree.

Facts have proved that my eyesight is indeed not very good. Under the double blessing of the sky that is not yet fully bright and the morning fog, I only found out that there was a person standing under the chestnut tree after I got closer.

Holding a half-finished wreath and a cane, he smiled at me.

I raised my hand and smiled at him, "Hi, uncle."

The hairpin that was rejected by An Guo before was finally pinned on her head.

During the meal, under my uncle's gesture, An Guo blushed and said to me: "Thank you, brother, this... I actually like it..."

I noticed that Xie Dongrong was staring at the hairpin I gave An Guo, for a moment I forgot that we were still in the cold war, and poked him with my elbow: "What? You want it?"

Xie Dongrong gouged me out and didn't answer.

"The doctor and the others will come in the afternoon. Take advantage of this time in the morning, Dongrong, you and Xiaoshu can go out for a stroll together. Didn't something happen yesterday?" The old uncle suggested at the right time.

I felt a little bit in my heart, knowing that this was a good opportunity to repair the relationship with Xie Dongrong, because I was afraid of being rejected, I didn't dare to be too active, so I just secretly looked at Xie Dongrong, wanting to know his attitude.

In front of my uncle, Xie Dongrong withdrew his usual aggressiveness. At this moment, he slightly pursed his lips, looked up at my uncle, and said: "We will go."

YES!Fireworks exploded in my heart, this is a good opportunity to repair the relationship.

My old uncle looked at the two of us and smiled kindly. I have to say that such a smile is a bit out of character for a person of his age.

"By the way, there is something..." The next moment, he seemed to suddenly think of something, looking at his eyes, I immediately stood up understandingly, and An Guo looked over in puzzlement until I hid my old uncle in the bed early in the morning. He took out the things in the drawer in the living room and handed them to him.

"Although my hands are not very dexterous, I still tried my best to make one for Guoguo." The uncle opened the box, took out the things, raised his hand, and while An Guoyin was completely stunned in shock, he gently put the flower crown on the on her head.

An Guo's face turned red, and she seemed to be crying, not crying, smiling and not smiling, but when she finally cried out in the next moment and jumped into her teacher's arms with snot bubbles, how much did I feel in my heart? very moved.

"Your tree brother also helped me, because it's not convenient for me to find flowers like this."

Then I heard An Guo cry: "Xie-Xie-Shu-Brother-Brother!!"

At this time, I noticed Xie Dongrong.

His expression was still as cold as ever, but upon closer inspection, one would find that there was an extremely hard-to-detect softness in it.

In this way, before the doctor came, Xie Dongrong and I went out.

When I was leaving, I pushed his wheelchair, turned around and smiled at my uncle and An Guo.

However, when we gradually walked out of their field of vision, the surrounding air gradually became cold, Xie Dongrong sat in the wheelchair without saying a word, and I just remembered that we had just quarreled.

It's really strange, I don't know when, Xie Dongrong and I have always behaved very well in front of others, especially in front of the elders.

But the reality is like walking a tightrope, always on the verge of danger.

"I'm sorry, I said something irresponsible last night." I thought, if there is only one person to maintain our relationship, then it can only be me.

Xie Dongrong was silent for a moment, and then said: "Forget it, you don't know." He turned his head, cast his eyes on the embankment where the chestnut blossoms were blooming, and said: "Actually, it's not bad to come out like this once in a while."

"That's right!" In this way, what happened last night will be considered a turning point!I was delighted in my heart, "Let's go to the other side of the river to have a look, there are many chestnut trees planted there."

Xie Dongrong did not deny it.

"But in fact, the tree in my uncle's house is the best, with the most flowers and the biggest flowers." For some reason, I jumped up, "The flowers in the backyard are also blooming, have you gone to see them?"

"...Mmm." Xie Dongrong's voice seemed to come from far away.

He didn't seem to want to talk too much, so I acted as a conversation starter.

When Yuemo just arrived on the other side of the river, accompanied by the fragrance of chestnut flowers, I saw a group of little girls wearing wreaths on their heads again.

They lined up, ran, and flew past us like birds again.

One of the girls saw Xie Dongrong sitting in a wheelchair, and stopped and stared at him blankly.

Xie Dongrong looked back without hesitation.

The next moment, the girl blushed, and she asked Xie Dongrong: "Brother, did you just come to the village?"

Xie Dongrong said, "Yes."

"I haven't seen my brother before, so will my brother come here tomorrow?"

After a moment of silence, I heard Xie Dongrong answer: "Maybe, maybe not."

An ambiguous answer, but just like that, the girl was satisfied, "Okay! I wish my brother a happy day, and... my brother is so beautiful!" After she finished speaking, she ran with her arms open like a young bird returning to the team , to chase after her partner who was watching from a distance.

From a distance, I seem to hear their laughter, which is reserved for girls who are curious or gossiping after chatting with handsome guys and returning to the team.

Xie Dongrong is really popular. I think he is not perfect now. I can already foresee that when he grows up and becomes more handsome, people chasing him should be able to line up from the center of the capital to my uncle's house. Bar.

and I?I'm just a slightly special part of it.

"You are very popular." I said softly to Xie Dongrong.

I don't know what Xie Dongrong was thinking, after a long while, he only said: "En."

"They also wore that, the wreath." I pointed it out to Xie Dongrong, Xie Dongrong didn't say anything, but he must have noticed it a long time ago.

I relayed to Xie Dongrong the custom I heard at the night market earlier.

Xie Dongrong said, "You are quite good at making girls happy."

I froze for a moment, and didn't understand the meaning of his words for a long time, "Where is it?

"It seems that you have a popular dream." Tilting his head slightly, Xie Dongrong turned around and looked at me from the corner of his eyes.

"Who doesn't want to be popular?" I scratched my head, thinking that people like Xie Dongrong would never experience the feeling of "not being liked".

Hearing this, Xie Dongrong snorted coldly, then directly controlled the wheelchair and walked towards the river.

I had no choice but to keep up with him in a hurry, calling him "princess" again in my heart.

However, other little girls have wreaths, how can the princess not?

When Xie Dongrong was staring at the petals in the river, I couldn't help but ask him: "Do you want to make one too?"

Xie Dongrong didn't seem to understand what I was talking about, he just frowned, as if he expected that this would not be a word that would make him happy.

"Here." I pointed to the group of girls with flower garlands over there, "Guoguo also has them. Let me find a way to make you one too? I think it must be suitable for you."

When I saw Xie Dongrong's fingers slightly clenched on the armrest of the wheelchair, I knew I had said the wrong thing again.

"Tao Shu, whenever I want to treat you well, you always have a way to make me angry." This is the last sentence Xie Dongrong said to me during this trip.

When I got home, it was almost noon, just in time for dinner, and the doctor and the others hadn't come yet.

After eating, the doctor and his other doctor brother just arrived, very punctual, just like pinching a watch.

Then came the hellish process of helping Xie Dongrong rebuild.

I know that compared to Xie Dongrong, my tiredness is nothing, because I can see the beads of sweat on his forehead, and his body trembling from trying to maintain his posture.

Several times, when I hugged him, he pushed me away fiercely, and I knew that he might have seen something in his mind during this process.

For example, all kinds of unbearable me.

Restoration is a punishment for Xie Dongrong, so why not for me?

Finally, with the doctor's permission, we were given a half-hour break.

Xie Dongrong drove away in the wheelchair without saying a word, and I followed him far away, feeling like a pervert.

But in the end he went to the backyard, and I went back to the room first.

Yes, that's right, I went back to the room "first". After I took something, I hurried to the backyard.

In the backyard, Xie Dongrong was sitting in a wheelchair, under the chestnut tree, raised his head slightly, and closed his eyes.

I obviously had deliberately slowed down my steps, but when I approached him, he turned his head sharply.

He stared at me for a long while before saying, "It doesn't suit you at all."

I smiled, "Because it was originally made up for you, how could it be suitable for me?"

Once again, I saw Xie Dongrong's fingertips that were slightly white due to exertion.

Startled, I quickly corrected my mistake and said, "No, since you don't like it, of course I won't force you to wear it."

Xie Dongrong just looked at me like that, as if he wanted to stare at me out of a big hole.

Knowing the funny effect of wearing the wreath on my head, I was a little at a loss for a while. After a few seconds, I took the wreath off my head dumbly.

But at this time, Xie Dongrong stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me."

I was stunned, and meeting his eyes, fireworks exploded again in my heart.

So I made a mistake again.

I didn't listen to his words, but put the wreath on Xie Dongrong's head with my own hands.

I felt the stagnation of Xie Dongrong's body, to be honest, when I finished this series of movements, I also froze.

But luckily, in the end he didn't say anything.

So, finally couldn't help it, I laughed.

Xie Dongrong, who was wearing a garland, looked at me for a long while, and finally raised the corners of his lips slightly, revealing a very inconspicuous smile.

I learned how to weave wreaths the night before.

I got up early this morning, and under this tree, I wove it together with my uncle and gave it to him.

Of course, I didn't tell him any of this.
