Of course, he would not tell Ruan Qi these things, and would only pass them by in an understatement.
But Ruan Qi is a doctor, how could she not know the hardships involved?
The little girl's tears flowed out uncontrollably like a flood.
She hugged Xi Jiu's neck tightly and apologized with choked sobs: "Jiujiu, I'm sorry, I shouldn't forget you. How could I forget you?"
Ruan Qi kept apologizing, and her guilt and distress made her heart ache.
Xi Jiu hated to see the little girl like this, so he pulled her out of his arms, held her face, and kissed her gently.
Ruan Qi's apology was blocked in the kiss.
The bedroom became quiet, leaving only the girl's gentle sobbing and moaning.
Xi Jiu took Ruan Qi's body into consideration and did not kiss deeply. He only sucked her lips carefully and let her go.
"Baby, you don't have to apologize to me." He gently wiped away the tears on the girl's face with his fingertips, "Rather than letting you grow up in pain, I hope you can forget the past. Although I was involved in those pasts.
, but I hope you can be happy and worry-free."
For Xi Jiu, if the memories of ten years ago would cause Ruan Qi pain, then he would rather she never remember him for the rest of her life.
These words made Ruan Qi feel sour and swollen.
She looked at Xi Jiu and said hoarsely: "Jiujiu, you have been looking for me for the past ten years, right?"
Xi Jiu nodded.
"Yes, I have been looking for you."
Ruan Qi recalled that when she came to the imperial capital, she met Xi Jiu for the first time in the hospital.
It turns out that what she thought was their first encounter was actually the reunion that Xi Jiu had been searching for for ten years.
"When you were in the hospital, you recognized me at first sight?"
"Well." Xi Jiu recalled the meeting in the Imperial Hospital more than a year ago, and couldn't help but smile in her eyes, "Your appearance has not changed much from when you were a child. It is easy to recognize you. I saw you in the hospital.
I recognized it at first sight."
At that time, he almost rushed forward, but the little girl looked at him as if she were a stranger. It was that look that made him force himself to stop where he was.
"Actually, after I reunited with you in the imperial capital, I secretly investigated your information. However, because Mr. Beilou helped you cover up the information, I found very little. But as I get along with you more and more, I am getting more and more
You are definitely the one I am looking for. Baby, there is no other girl in this world who can make my heart so soft."
Xi Jiu is a cold and affectionate person.
He may not have been in love with the little Ruan Qi from ten years ago. But it is undeniable that the little girl at that time was unique in his heart.
And this uniqueness gradually became stronger in the following ten years, and finally turned into love in longing.
There is only one person in the world, Ruan Qi, who can make Xi Jiu's heart feel happy unconsciously. Even if the world changes, even if Ruan Qi changes her appearance and identity, he can still recognize her with his own heart.
.
Ruan Qi's eye circles turned red again.
She hugged Xi Jiu's neck and nuzzled him in his arms.
"Jiujiu, how were you found after you were drowned in the river?"
Xi Jiu: "There is a village near the river. Several villagers happened to be passing by that day and found the blood stains I left on the river. They felt something was wrong and were about to call the police when the amulet I was wearing floated out of the river.
Come up."
Because of poor health since childhood, Mr. Xi specially asked for an amulet for his grandson from the eminent monk.
This amulet was usually worn around Xi Jiu's neck. On the day Ruan Qi was captured by Xiaoyaozhuang, he and the bad guys must have pulled the amulet's rope while tearing it apart. Later, when it was soaked in the river, the rope broke. The amulet was so light that it did not sink after the rope broke, but floated up due to buoyancy.
When the villagers saw the amulet that suddenly floated up, they knew something was wrong and immediately jumped into the water to fish for the person.
This is how Xi Jiu was rescued.
"After the villagers rescued me, they sent me to a hospital on the outskirts of Shanghai City. The people sent by my grandfather to protect me saw that I had not returned to the fishing village and realized something was wrong, so they came all the way from the fishing village."
"Then they notified my grandfather, who rushed to Shanghai overnight and transferred me to a big hospital. You also know what happened next."
Rescue, treatment, two years of vegetative state, and finally recovery.
Xi Jiu succinctly summarized the events of those two years in just a few sentences, but Ruan Qi could imagine what kind of life and death line it was.
She pursed her lips, looked up at the man, and gently held his face with her trembling hands.
"Jiujiu, thank you."
She leaned forward and placed a gentle kiss on the man's lips, and tears flowed out.
"I remembered it all, Brother Bingshan."
The long-lost title was finally spoken by the girl again after ten years.
Xi Jiu's hands shook and her eye circles were slightly red.
He held Ruan Qi's face and said in a hoarse voice: "Baby, shout again."
"Brother Bingshan, Brother Bingshan, Brother Bingshan..." Ruan Qi shouted over and over again.
What was once a smart and well-behaved child's voice has now become a soft, sweet girl's voice.
And the little girl with the sunflower hairband also grew into a graceful girl in ten years.
Everything is changing.
The only thing that hasn't changed is that they are still together.
……
The two people finally revealed their biggest secret, and Ruan Qi's sigh that she had been holding on to was released.
Suddenly, a strong sense of exhaustion swept through her body. Her vision went dark and she almost fell to the ground.
Xi Jiu hugged her quickly.
"What's wrong? Dizzy?"
Ruan Qi shook her head: "I'm a little exhausted. Jiujiu, I want to go to bed and take a rest."
She started a nationwide road show a week ago. After the road show, she flew to City C immediately, and flew back immediately after finishing her work. The continuous travel and fatigue, coupled with the ups and downs of emotions, even though she is an ancient warrior, she can't bear it.
.
Xi Jiu quickly carried her to the bed.
The little girl's face was frighteningly pale. Because she cried so hard, her body was covered in sweat and her hands and feet were cold.
Xi Jiu helped her take off her shoes, covered her with a quilt, and turned on the central air conditioner in the room.
Then, he picked up the intercom and asked Gong Qi to bring him a cup of hot water.
"Get some sweets that can replenish energy. Do you have a baby warmer at home that you can put under the quilt to keep warm? If you do, bring one."
Xi Jiu asked for a bunch of things very quickly. After hanging up the phone, he turned around and walked into the bathroom and took out a hot towel moistened with water.
"Baby, let me wipe your body."
Xi Jiu knelt on one knee beside the bed, bent down to lift the little girl up, and let her lean on the pillow.
He first wiped her tear-stained face with a hot towel, and then wiped off the cold sweat on her forehead.
Then, Xi Jiu wiped the neck, hands, legs...all the parts exposed outside the clothes carefully. If Ruan Qi was not weak and unable to move, he would even considerately help her take a bath and change her clothes.
