The early summer sun was already a bit hot. Charlotte Rowling was riding home with her schoolbag and a few friends while chatting about the gossip of someone at school. Originally, her family had arranged for a driver to pick her up, but in order to prevent herself from becoming a loner,
, after entering high school, I cycled to and from school by myself.
"Charlotte, I heard today that Alice in the next class is involved with a freshman in high school!"
It was early after school, so a group of people went to sit at a roadside cafe. Everything they ordered was ready. A girl with red hair said mysteriously, with an expression on her face as if she had seen it with her own eyes.
"But aren't there lilies everywhere around her house?"
Another girl with short blond hair asked back, this Alice is famous in school, she knows everything without going into details.
"Who knows! Maybe he is possessed by the devil? Or maybe the junior is too handsome and turned me over?"
At this time, Charlotte's mobile phone sounded a reminder to leave a message on a special page. When she clicked on it, a skull with red eyes flashed there. The black background made people feel uncomfortable. On the roadside opposite the cafe, a regular car appeared on the roadside.
In the back seat of an ordinary off-road vehicle, a man with a serious expression and an aura of loneliness was watching her actions intently. Seeing that she just took out her phone, looked at it and then put it back, the man almost crushed the phone.
"Walk!"
As the car started to leave, the man's thoughts returned to that day in late autumn last year. He was betrayed by the person he trusted most. During a firefight with another gang, almost all of his younger brothers died, and he was also hit in the shoulder and waist.
After one shot, he finally rushed out under the desperate protection of two or three younger brothers.
It rained non-stop that day. Wearing only a thin shirt, he stumbled to a corner of a park while covering his wounds. He was so tired that his strong body fell on the bench in front of him. He felt very sad.
I know clearly that I must not sleep at this time, but I can't resist the waves of sleepiness.
My life is really a piece of cake. When a person is about to die, all the joys and sorrows that have happened in the past will be relived in his mind, even if he has lived a life of bloodshed like his.
The man was thinking this, as Charlotte Rowling came in from the side door of the park to take a shortcut. As soon as she turned the corner, she saw a person lying there covered in blood, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. Although he was a little scared, he still
I couldn't bear it. If he was alive in the rain like this, he would die sooner or later. If he died, he couldn't let his body be exposed in the park like this. What if he scared others.
She boldly walked over and picked up a branch from the side and poked the man. Seeing that there was no movement, she increased her force a little more, but there was still no movement. Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief and walked over. The man suddenly sat up and looked at him with a fierce look.
She fell down softly within a minute. Charlotte felt like her soul was about to fly out. She calmed down and probed the man's breath, but she could hardly feel it. Seeing that there was no one around, she could only
She called the hospital. Although she didn't know who he was, it was always good to save someone's life.
In the hospital, the man was in a coma for ten days due to excessive blood loss. Charlotte would come to see him after school and usually hired a nurse to take care of him. On this day, Charlotte sat by the hospital bed with her chin in her hands and looked at the man, feeling in her heart
Guessing his identity and why he was injured. As he looked at it, his mind wandered elsewhere. This man was quite good-looking, with strong features and sharp eyebrows. His lips were a little pale due to excessive blood loss. It was the scars on his face that made people...
Scared. He must be an Oriental in appearance. What is he doing here? Her eyes fell on the man's Adam's apple that occasionally moved, and she wanted to touch it. Charlotte thought so and did the same.
He couldn't help but slide down until he reached the strong chest muscles. Because his shoulders and waist were injured, he was not given a hospital gown or top.
If Charlotte Rowling could stop interacting with men as quickly as she did what she did on her hands, those things in the future might not happen. Unfortunately, things happen, and her behavior of visiting men in the hospital every day continued until
A week after he woke up. It can be said that the two of them had no communication during this week. Charlotte Rowling was doing stand-up comedy alone next to her. Until a week later, she came to the hospital again and looked at the empty ward.
If there was something missing in my heart, even though the man hadn't said a word since he woke up, at least he had someone to talk to about his dissatisfaction with his family. Now he was fine, and he returned to his original life. Although he was very disdainful of the man's behavior of leaving without saying goodbye,
But it only took two or three days to forget about it all.
After the man returned, he asked someone to investigate Charlotte Rowling's information. Looking at the bright smiling face on the information, he felt something different in his heart for the first time. From that day on, he asked someone to observe her all the time, until this time at a certain date.
I especially left a message on her daily post and added her as a friend but was rejected.
The man looked out of the car with frighteningly dark eyes, and a plan was slowly brewing in his mind. A month later, the disappearance of Charlotte Rowling happened. Girls who are in love are the easiest to be deceived, so the man
After returning home, she packaged herself up as a boy of similar age to her and added her as a friend again. This time she was approved quickly. I usually gave her some small gifts from time to time, or asked people to give her some small surprises, and she was quickly captured.
heart of.
The place where the two agreed to meet was in the park where the man was rescued. When Charlotte Rowling first arrived, she felt familiar and couldn't remember when she had been there before. The man quietly appeared behind her, knocked her unconscious with a knife and tied her up.
Throw it into the car and complete the action in one go.
When Charlotte Rowling woke up, she was in a dark room. The only window was far out of her reach. The door was pushed open, and a tall man's figure walked in. Her miserable life
It also started from that moment.
In Hall Manor, Dr. Chris Baird sat by the bed and looked at the sleeping Charlotte. His broad palm slowly touched her face, and his fingertips traced back and forth on her beautiful eyebrows.
Printed on the snow-white wall by the light, it was a warm moment but now it gave people a depressing feeling.
Different from the depression here, Chen Xiaonian was showing Lin Qi the jewelry she had designed so hard all afternoon. It was a set of necklaces, bracelets and earrings, inspired by snakes. As for the material, she thought about it for a long time before deciding to use 18K
and rubies. The details of the snake are very detailed, and even the scales are distinct. The most stunning thing is the bracelet, with multiple openings wrapped around the arm, and irregular rubies in its mouth. The overall look is cool and noble. The necklace
The pendant is a snake wrapped around a drop-shaped gemstone from bottom to top, and the hissing sound can be heard from the open snake's head.
"How's it going? It's okay!"
Chen Xiaonian held up her chin and looked at Lin Qi eagerly, with an expression on her face as if you were about to praise me. Lin Qi deliberately frowned, as if the design in front of him was difficult to explain. Seeing that the expression on his wife's face fell, Lin Qi put him away
Tease her mind.
"My wife is the best. My husband will reward you with a kiss of love."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and pouted and leaned over. Chen Xiaonian looked at his improper appearance and gave him a kick. Lin Qi sat on the ground and watched her not speaking. Chen Xiaonian rubbed his temples and squatted down to coax him for a long time.
.
When going to bed at night, Lin Qi looked at the two quilts with a puzzled look on his face.
"I'm afraid it will leak at night, so it's best to have one quilt per person."
Chen Xiaonian held her mobile phone and laughed. The pre-sale results for the bracelet she designed were pretty good. Today the design fee has arrived. Speaking of which, this is her first income after graduation. She is just happy and planning how to use it.
Chen Xiaonian did not see Lin Qi's gloomy expression.
Lin Qi stood by the bed for a long time but didn't see his wife paying attention to him. He smiled coldly and lay down on the quilt, turned his head to the side and closed his eyes to sleep.
"Husband, shall I treat the whole family to dinner tomorrow? Where do you want to go?"
Chen Xiaonian finally suppressed her excitement and saw Lin Qi lying there with his hands folded upright and his neck at an awkward angle. He felt very strange, what happened to this man? He pushed, and when he saw no reaction, he pushed harder.
After increasing his strength, he saw Lin Qi rolling around on the bed until he fell off the bed. Chen Xiaonian laughed wildly, and Lin Qi just lay on the ground, still keeping his arms folded across his chest.
"Husband, what's wrong with you? Get up quickly, the ground is cold."
Chen Xiaonian held back her laughter and got out of bed to pull Lin Qi. Without noticing, he pushed her under him without saying a word. He just stared at her with eyes full of grievance, just like a parent who ignored her after giving birth to their second child.
Boss.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Chen Xiaonian felt a little panicked when he was seen. He had already gone through everything he had done recently in his mind, and thought that he had done nothing to make him angry.
"You don't even care about me anymore. You didn't even notice that I was sleeping without a quilt, and you still laughed at me."
Chen Xiaonian's mind was filled with questions, "I didn't deny you the quilt!"
Lin Qi let go of Chen Xiaonian, walked to the glass wall and looked at the lights of thousands of houses outside, a melancholy aura emanating from his body.
"My wife doesn't love me anymore, my wife doesn't love me anymore, my wife doesn't love me anymore..."
The ethereal voice made the temperature in the room drop. Chen Xiaonian was completely defeated when he saw Lin Qi's childish behavior. He lifted his quilt and coaxed: "Then I will let you sleep with me tonight.
"
Sure enough, when Lin Qi heard these words, he got into the quilt with lightning speed and threw the quilt on the side to the ground.
"Honey, it's time to sleep."
Charlotte woke up and looked at the unfamiliar environment. After a long time, she remembered that she had been sent to Hall Manor for recuperation. After washing up, she went to the restaurant and looked at Dr. Chris who was waiting for her. She subconsciously resisted. This was what she had done before.
Never before. After finding a seat far away from him and sitting down, the maid began to bring breakfast to the table one after another.
It has been rainy and cold recently, and the cold seems to be getting into everyone's bones. Charlotte can only stay in front of the fireplace to keep warm all day long, read a book, or write a diary. There is no Internet here, and communication is also an ancient hand crank.
dialer. Every day her family would call to inquire about her health. As soon as Chris came over, Charlotte immediately put the receiver aside to avoid contact with him.
Chris felt his heart ache when he saw Charlotte acting extra wary and unfamiliar with him, but what he didn't understand was that the naked possessiveness in his eyes was the root cause of Charlotte's suspicion and guarding against him. When Xia was alone,
Lott would think back to the days when Chris came to work as a family doctor at home. Although he occasionally saw the tangled look in his eyes, he never thought that he would be that person.
But after she got sick this time, all the doubts came together. She had to confirm this, otherwise it would become another knot in her heart. Half a month passed, and Charlotte kept paying attention, and sure enough, no matter where she was,
You can all see Chris's eyes following her.
The weather rarely cleared up, so Charlotte asked Chris to go out for a walk. This was the first time since arriving here, and it was also the first time since Chris became Charlotte's family doctor. The two of them walked aimlessly.
Lott felt a little nervous and secretly comforted herself not to be afraid. Suddenly her feet were free and she fell to the left. Chris quickly stretched out his hand to block her waist and hugged her. This also gave Charlotte a chance to take off her mask and saw Ke
Behind Reese's face, she couldn't help but open her eyes wide.
