Chapter 33: Sickness X

After being dazed, I pulled my hand hard, but I couldn't break free from his grasp. I frowned slightly, and he let me go before I tried again.

I know that my face must be ugly now, but I still stand stubbornly at the door and refuse to let go: "...Is there something wrong?"

The knight didn't respond, but another figure appeared from behind him: "Yo, Yili's sister, hello."

When I saw Wo Jin's face clearly, I recalled the touch of his big hand covered in blood and foam four years ago pinching my cheek. I couldn't overcome the obstacle in my heart, so I took a step back reflexively.

The knight glanced at me, and said: "Wo Jin was injured a little bit, and leeches were planted in his body. I know you have special healing powers. We still have things to do. To save time, I'll come over to you." .”

"...How do you know my home address?"

Wo Jin scratched his head: "Oh, that means you are in the mobile phone of the knight..."

Not knowing what he was trying to cover up, the knight mercilessly gave Wo Jin an elbow, and smiled and said: "I am also a hacker, You Kexin is so big, I want to find out your address But it's easy."

I looked at Xia Ke quietly, the smile on his face was like a false mask of politeness, he spoke to me so calmly, as if all the past between us had never happened.

Is it just me who cherishes that unforgettable memory?

In the sky arena, in the phone call I asked Maggie to call Xia Ke, he clearly stated that he would not let me know the truth about the genocide of Ning Stola. Instead of loving him, he wanted me to hate him forever. I always keep in mind the role he should play.

I clenched my fist hard, and the pain from the sharp fingertips piercing my palm woke me up a lot. I also smiled and said, "Oh, it's really interesting. Do I have to help if you ask me to help? Who do you think you are? If you want to ask for help, you have to show some sincerity, don’t you?”

I thought that my attitude was completely different from the self who only acted like a baby and begged and cried to the chivalrous man back then, which would shake him to some extent. Unexpectedly, the smile on his face remained unmoved, and he said, "How much do you want?"

His casual attitude really made people uncomfortable, I looked at Wo Jin, gritted my teeth and offered a harsh price: "5000 million nuns!"

"Okay, you report the account to me, and I will transfer it to you immediately."

Wo Jin, who had been standing behind the knight, said: "Hey, knight, you also know that I never carry cash with me, and I will never deposit money in the bank. If you see something in my place next time, Just take it."

"It doesn't matter," the knight kept his eyes on me, and said with a chuckle, "I don't pay much attention to this little money."

I:"……"

It's so damn annoying.

After confirming that my account has received the transfer, I reluctantly let them in. Although the knight pried open the door, he didn't break the lock, otherwise I would definitely beat him again.

Always vigilant to prevent them from going up to the second floor to see Sasha and Kersa, I asked Wo Jin to sit down on the sofa in the living room, and took a rough look at the somewhat scary wound on his left shoulder and the bruises. The species of the leech implanted in his body, said: "Is it from this wound that the leech was implanted?"

"Yes."

"This wound should be caused by someone biting off a piece of meat, but why is there still a knife wound?"

"I was attacked on the way here."

"How long has it been since the leech was implanted?"

"Less than five hours."

"It's been a long time. They should be about to climb to the bladder, but it's not a big problem."

"..."

Wojin looked to the left and then to the right, really speechless, who is the injured person?

I directly used Wojin's wound as a starting point to release my healing ability, and his wound recovered in the blink of an eye, but I didn't stop my ability, and slowly moved my palm following the crawling trajectory of those leeches , Make sure that your ability covers every difference in Wojin.

The moment I finished the treatment, my eyes suddenly became a little blurred. Also, the power of thoughts is not inexhaustible, so releasing such a large amount of thoughts at one time will inevitably lead to physical exhaustion.

But Wo Jin stood up and stretched his muscles, and said in amazement: "It's really amazing. If I take you to fight, won't I be invincible hahahaha."

"..."

I ignored his words and said, "This is the first time I've treated this special case. Maybe some leeches haven't been removed. To be on the safe side, you'd better drink a lot of beer and check if your urine will is black."

Wo Jin asked: "Do you have beer at home?"

"No."

"Oh," Wo Jin nodded, sat down again, and waved to me in a very unclely manner, "Then why don't you hurry up and get it?"

"..." I tried my best to suppress the swearing that came to my throat, and said with a smile, "My treatment is over, why do I need to help you buy beer?"

Wo Jin replied very naturally: "I said I don't bring cash, and I have to save energy to wait until I find that damn chain hand to fight, so I don't have time to get some beer."

After finishing speaking, he spread his hands on the sofa, raised his head and said to the knight: "While sister Yili is making beer, help me check the position of the chain hand."

"That's easy, don't worry," Xia Ke said with a smile, "I'll go buy you beer with her."

I suddenly turned my head to look at him, but I heard him say, "I'm just in case you take the opportunity to escape."

escape?Sasha and Keersha are still sleeping upstairs, how dare I run away?ah……

My face changed slightly, and I looked at Wo Jin, if he went upstairs and saw the children when I went to buy beer later, it would be over.

Noticing my gaze, Wo Jin asked strangely, "Why are you looking at me?"

"...Mr. Wojin, I'll help you buy beer, but can you promise me something?"

"what?"

"Can you please sit here obediently and wait for me to come back and don't move around? I have many valuable collections at home, and I can't afford to damage them."

Hearing this, Wo Jin dismissed it: "Aren't they just collectibles? I've been with the head of the group for so many years. I don't have any collectibles. If it breaks, I will compensate you."

"……I beg you."

Maybe it was because my expression was a bit solemn, but he finally scratched his hair: "I see, I just sit here and don't go anywhere, right? I Wo Jin is not a good person, but I always do what I say."

"Thank you."

During the whole process, I didn't even look at the knight. I walked past him and was about to open the door, but he grabbed his hand again.

I was annoyed by his repeated and unscrupulous skin-to-skin contact, and I was about to speak, but I heard him say, "Are you planning to go out in this suit?"

I looked down, only to realize that I had been wearing the same silk nightdress I had been wearing before bed.

Suppressing the heat on my face, I shook off his hand, put on the long-sleeved coat resting on the stool, and went out.

At 02:30 in the morning, the streets were almost empty, leaving only the street lamps on both sides still shining lonely.

A 24-hour convenience store is nearby, and I quickened my pace along the way, ignoring the footsteps of knights who were half a step behind me.

"You cut your hair short," he said suddenly.

The day after I met Xia Ke and Beth at the crossroads, I cut my hair down to my shoulders. During the process, the barber couldn’t stop feeling sorry for my waist-length hair. When I asked why, I smiled and told him that I wanted to change my mood.

The real reason for my grief and resentment is buried deep in my heart, and I will never say it anyway.

I didn't want to talk about this topic, so I just responded casually.

But he said relentlessly, "Why?"

"I suppose I don't need your permission to cut my hair, Mr. Knight."

"……Too."

He smiled and said nothing more, but for some reason, my mood became more and more irritable.

Seeing that I am still affected by his every move, he must be very proud, right?You deliberately asked me about cutting my hair to laugh at me, right?

I thought that I had made some progress in the past four years, but in the end, when facing him, I was only weak on the outside and weak on the inside.

When I entered the convenience store, I almost threw the can of beer into the shopping basket viciously. Before I could take the next can, a slender hand took it out and put it back again. I took a deep breath In a calm tone, looking at Xia Ke, he explained to me: "Wo Jin doesn't like this brand of beer."

Almost angrily, I said every word: "I, like, like!"

"You never drank beer before."

"You also said it was in the past," I sneered, "Thanks to you, my drinking capacity is no longer what it used to be."

It’s just bragging and not drafting. At the stage when I had serious mental problems, Maggie was always by my side to control my three meals. After a while, when I got up and found out that I was pregnant, I naturally didn’t dare to drink alcohol. After giving birth, I was busy taking care of the child and working every day, so I didn't have time to drink to soothe my worries.

But right now, I am overwhelmed by resentment, and I want to fight against the knight in everything. He doesn't want this brand of beer, so I just want to take it.

I thought that the chivalrous man would argue with me for Wo Jin's preference, so I was ready. Unexpectedly, he looked at me quietly for a few seconds, but he didn't say anything. He just took the beer he just put back. return.

This move was like hitting the cotton with my fist, and I felt powerless. I pursed my lips and watched him holding cans of beer of a brand that Wo Jin didn't like, and the sourness flooded my heart like a tide.

He used to be like this when he was in the Nestola house. Whenever he disagreed with me, unless it touched on his principles, he always respected my preferences with a smile on his face.

I turned my back, pretended to be holding a beer, and tried to adjust my mood.

Because this convenience store is right next to my house, I am a regular customer, and the cashier brother recognized me. While sweeping the beer, he said with a smile: "I ordered this, bought so many beers?"

"Well, something happened."

He glanced at the knight standing beside me, and said, "It's the first time I saw Miss Linsha's husband, he is very handsome, what a pity, I thought you were single."

He knew I had two kids, so naturally he skipped "boyfriend" and went straight to "husband."

I smiled and said, "You misunderstood, he is not my husband, and I have nothing to do with him."

"Ah, I'm so sorry, because you guys were chatting over there just now..."

"It doesn't matter."

When I checked out, I was about to take out my wallet, but the knight had already handed out a banknote. The cashier boy looked at me in surprise, as if he couldn’t understand why a person I said had nothing to do with me would help me Bill, please.

After thinking about it, I realized that there was no reason for me to pay for the wine of this nest of gold, so I picked up a bag of beer, turned around and left the door.

A middle-aged man with an empty wine bottle staggered towards me. When I saw him staggering, I knew he must be very drunk, and he was trying to avoid him with a blank face. Who would have thought that he could be accurate when he was so drunk? blocked in front of me.

He grinned and hiccupped me: "Beauty, one, one?"

I couldn't help but frowned because of the soaring smell of alcohol, and I didn't want to chat with a drunk so I planned to ignore him, but he would still come to pull me: "It's so late, still, still Come out alone, want to play with my brother~ Hey, hey..."

I easily avoided him and said, "It's so late, who would want to come out, of course I really want to sleep."

I said this slightly sarcastic remark on purpose to the chivalrous men next to me, at least to vent my anger when forced to come out to buy wine.

Hearing the word "sleep", the drunkard's cloudy eyes lit up, probably thinking of some yellow waste, he said "hey" twice, opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly his face turned pale.

Before I could react, I was dragged behind by the knight.

Almost in the next second, the drunkard spat out with a "wow". The knight's reaction was already extremely fast, and a lot of filth was still splashed, but I was unscathed when he protected me behind me. I think if it wasn't for the Pull me, he will be able to hide completely.

When he and Wo Jin came over, they were wearing a black suit. At this time, the suit was full of yellow and white vomit, which was very conspicuous.

Compared to my surprise, Xia Ke was much calmer. I saw him take off the suit jacket and throw it away, leaving only the white shirt inside.

Seeing me staring at him blankly, the knight smiled and said, "Aren't you going? You are in a hurry to go back to sleep."

I pointed to the alcoholic next to me who was still throwing up: "He..."

"Do you still want to stay and help him sober up?"

"..."

I suppressed what I wanted to say, shook my head silently, and followed the pace of the knight.
