dumb boy

"That..." The person who was hugged spoke again, and patted Shen Xia's back awkwardly, "Friend, you dropped your scarf on the floor just now, I want to return it to you..."

Different from Qin Yanqian's deep and cold voice, the speaker's voice is very young and clear, and the smell of perfume on his body is also different from Qin Yanqian's.

Shen Xia looked up in a daze, saw a strange young face, immediately let go, blushed to the point of explosion, panicked and said: "I'm sorry, sorry, I recognized the wrong person..."

"It's okay." Shuman handed him the scarf.Looking at Shen Xia's appearance, he thought it was a high school boy who came to play at the manga exhibition, and asked casually, "Did you get separated from your friends? Do you want me to take you to find the staff?"

Shen Xia shook her head with red eyes, and said thank you again.

Shu Man hummed.

At this moment, Shen Xia's cell phone rang, and Qiao Yang called him with an anxious voice: "Shen Xia, Song Yuxiao told me that you got separated from him? Where are you now?"

Shen Xia looked around blankly, but couldn't figure out where she was: "I don't know..."

Shu Man was straightening the suit that was wrinkled by the boy, and raised his eyebrows when he heard his words: "Do you need my help?"

Shen Xia also wanted to find Qiao Yang earlier, so she turned on the speaker and asked him to talk to Qiao Yang.

Qiao Yang came over quickly, his face full of panic: "Shen Xia, you scared me to death!"

Seeing that he was so worried, Shen Xia said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't run around."

"Oh, it's fine, it's fine."

Qiao Yang also blamed himself.These days have been going so smoothly, he has forgotten about the boy's lack of brains, if he loses Shen Xia in this place, he will definitely feel guilty.

Qiao Yang looked at the tall and long-legged Shuman beside him: "This is?"

"He's the one who called you for me just now." Shen Xia introduced, "This is my friend."

"Oh, hello, thank you." Qiao Yang greeted quickly.

Shu Man said restrainedly: "Hi, no need."

"Since your friend found you, I'm leaving." Shu Man said to Shen Xia, just as he was about to leave, his companion couldn't wait to find him: "Shu Man, what are you doing here?! Do you know the stall over there?" How busy are you, you are still lazy here!"

Qiao Yang's eyes lit up.

Shuman's partner is a girl in a gothic-style skirt. She has a beautiful fair face and a tall figure. Except for her voice, which is a bit hoarse, everything else just hits Qiao Yang's cute spot. It is his favorite sweet and cool appearance. .

The girl's personality is also very cheerful. When she saw Qiao Yang and Shen Xia opposite Shu Man, she asked curiously, "Who is this?"

"Tourist." Shu Man said concisely, "Go back."

Qiao Yang saw that he had forgotten his friends, and struck up a conversation familiarly: "Are you the guests invited by the comic exhibition?"

"Yes." The girl smiled and said generously, "Would you like to come and have a look at our booth~"

"Yes!" Qiao Yang didn't buy a big autograph book, and it would be nice to buy some other souvenirs, so he immediately dragged Shen Xia to follow.

The four people exchanged names on the road. The girl's name is Jiang Yingwan. She and Shuman are both students in a nearby university town. They come here to play on weekends and help the club sell things.

Qiao Yang obviously became interested in Jiang Yingwan, and chatted enthusiastically with the girls, while Shen Xia and Shu Man stood beside them as pillars.

Qiao Yang bought a lot of things, took the opportunity to ask someone for their contact information, and then reluctantly left with Shen Xia.

Shen Xia was in a bad mood at first, but she was in a bad mood when she saw Shu Man, who had a similar temperament to Qin Yanqian. She didn't say a word on the way, and when she was almost at school, she suddenly said, "Yangyang, I want to go back to the hospital."

He still can't let go of the man.

Shen Xia thought about it all the way, told herself, and went back to have a look.

If the man is fine, he will immediately sign a divorce agreement with him. If Qin Yanqian is really sick, then he deserves it, and he just looks happy.

Qiao Yang definitely didn't agree with him going back, but Shen Xia had made up her mind to go, and after helping him take all his things back to school, he had to take a taxi back to the hospital.

Boys usually have a good temper, but they are especially stubborn when they are stubborn, and they can't pull back nine cows.Qiao Yang's persuasion was fruitless, so he had no choice but to go back with him, and if anything happened, he would take care of him.

When they returned to the urban area, it was already dark. Shen Xia asked Qiao Yang to sit in the lobby first, and then he found the ward where the man lived according to the ward number Du Xiangyun had sent him, stood in front of the door, took a deep breath, and then knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" a male voice asked inside.

Someone came to open the door. It was a strange young man with an extremely handsome appearance.

Shen Xia stared blankly at the other party's beautiful blue pupils like jewels.

The man was also startled for a moment, and suddenly laughed: "Oh, you are Mrs. Qin!"

"Mrs. Qin, hello, I am Mr. Qin's partner, and my name is Ren Huaizhi."

Before Shen Xia could react, she was dragged in by the young man. Ren Huaizhi smiled and shouted inside: "Boss Qin, your wife is here to see you!"

Shen Xia ignorantly followed him to look inside, and saw Qin Yanqian half-lying on the hospital bed, with two laptops beside him.

At this time, it had only been a week since the two met last time, but the man had changed a lot, almost losing weight.

The originally handsome and sharp face was sunken, the complexion was pale to sickly, and the tall and thin body was leaning against the head of the bed like a thin and fragile piece of paper.

Qin Yanqian was looking down at the document in his hand, but there was no response, Ren Huaizhi called him again, and the man glanced indifferently here with a blank face.

Shen Xia was inexplicably terrified by his long, narrow and dark eyes, she stood there and asked from a distance: "Qin Yanqian...how is your illness..."

The man looked at him in silence for a while, and then he said in a low voice, "It's okay."

His head is no longer as painful as it was at the beginning, and he can barely sleep for three or four hours a day with drugs, but he has been diagnosed with pathological depression and needs to take a lot of drugs to control and improve his depression.

He still has no appetite, reacts sluggishly, and often forgets where he is or what he was doing just a few seconds ago.

Ren Huaizhi came to ask him to sign the contract. He looked at it for more than half an hour, but his eyes still stayed on the first line. The young man could only let him rest for a while and chat with him, but he didn't open his mouth.

It seemed that there were a lot of things to say, but they were swallowed back.

no need.

My heart is empty, my whole body is full of tiredness and powerlessness, and I don't have any desire to communicate with others.

Ren Huaizhi talked to him for a long time just now, but the man didn't respond at all, he just leaned on the bed quietly, now that Shen Xia came over, he managed to spit out two words.

"Come closer." Ren Huaizhi pushed the timid Shen Xia inside, "Your husband's leg is broken and he can't get out of bed."

The man's lower body was covered by a thick quilt, and because he was too thin, the quilt was flat as if there was nothing underneath.

Shen Xia frightened: "Your leg is broken?!"

"Fracture." Qin Yanqian said lightly.

He just took antidepressants, and his mind was dizzy. He should be very excited to see the boy again, but he couldn't feel anything in his heart, as if his heart had been dug out by someone. Show no emotion.Just listening to the boy and trying to answer the question has exhausted all his energy.

His indifferent reaction made Shen Xia a little at a loss.The boy groaned, and said dryly, "Then you should have a good rest."

"Ah."

Shen Xia didn't know what to say.

Qin Yanqian still stared straight at him without saying a word.

This was originally a sign of the man getting angry before, so Shen Xia was a little scared by his dark eyes at first, but when he accidentally looked at the man, he found that there was no emotion in the man's eyes, just plain Stare at him.

Like the eyes of a child.

She stared at him dully, waiting for his next reaction.

When the two were silent, Ren Huaizhi took the opportunity to pack up his things, and said again: "Mrs. Qin, Mr. Qin's parents have something to do, so I asked me to help look after him. Now that you are here, I will go home. You accompany him After a while, uncle and aunt should be back soon."

Before Shen Xia could respond, the young man smiled and said to Qin Yanqian: "Boss Qin, then we can discuss the contract when you feel better. I'm leaving today."

Qin Yanqian did not answer.

"Hey, wait..." Shen Xia panicked to stop the young man who was about to slip away, but Ren Huaizhi was tall and long-legged, and walked to the door lightly in a few steps, and helped them close the door with a smile, "Madam Qin, see you next time haha .”

The person on the hospital bed suddenly called his name: "Xia Xia..."

This was the first time Qin Yanqian took the initiative to speak these days.

Seeing that Shen Xia was about to leave, the man frowned slightly, and after thinking hard for a while, he remembered what he wanted to say: "I have something for you."

Shen Xia turned around in a daze, and saw Qin Yanqian leaning over to reach the drawer of the table next to him.

The man had lost too much weight, and the blue and white striped hospital gown on his body slid with his movements, empty and terrifying.

Qin Yanqian took out a small box from the drawer and looked at him again.

Shen Xia had no choice but to walk over under his gaze: "What?"

Qin Yanqian didn't speak, and handed him the box.

When I stretched out my hand, because the arm had no flesh, the loose sleeve fell directly to the elbow, revealing several deep and shallow scars on the forearm.

At that moment, Shen Xia suspected that he was dreaming. He widened his eyes in disbelief, grabbed Qin Yanqian's wrist, and asked in a trembling voice: "What is this?!"

Why did Qin Yanqian have so many scars on his arm? !

After the wrist slit, Qin's father and Qin's mother put away all the sharp tools in the ward, but they couldn't stop their son from getting sick.The man would hit his arm with various things, and bite his flesh, until he felt the heavy pain, before he felt at ease.

But when he woke up again, Qin Yanqian would also feel that it was stupid.

The sad eyes of his parents made him feel that he was a waste and a burden, why he couldn't control his emotions, and then couldn't help crying.

He avoided Shen Xia's question, and only said softly: "Open the box."

He felt that Shen Xia should like the things inside.
