Each world be

Cheng Ling stepped forward quickly, "Qingqing, you're awake. Are you feeling unwell?"

The girl on the bed smiled at her tiredly, fragile and gentle.

"I'm fine, Lingling. I'm sorry for making you worry."

Her voice was still hoarse. She was clearly the one suffering, but the first thing she did when she woke up was to comfort them.

Mu Yungui raised his eyelids and cast a deep gaze at the pale girl.

Cheng Ling handed her a cup of warm water, her eyes slightly moist.

"It's not your fault, Qingqing. If it weren't for that bastard Mu Xiuming, you wouldn't have to suffer like this."

Shi Qing propped herself up and sat up, took a sip, and pretended to be puzzled, "Mu Xiuming?"

Cheng Ling glanced at Mu Yungui who was standing behind.

"Mu Xiuming is my cousin's half brother. I happened to run into him in the garden, and then I saw you fall into the pond. How could you fall in for no reason? It must have been that bastard Mu Xiuming. He has an unpredictable temper. Next time you see him, remember to stay away from him."

Shi Qing nodded slowly.

"By the way, I seemed to see Brother Yungui before I passed out. Was he the one who saved me?"

The girl couldn't help but cough a few times and looked at the expressionless man with soft eyes.

"Yes," Cheng Ling patted her chest in fear, "Luckily my cousin found it in time, otherwise I really don't dare to think about the consequences."

Shi Qing noticed that she was still wearing a dress, and her curled eyelashes trembled slightly, "I'm sorry Lingling, I ruined your birthday party."

Cheng Ling touched her hair distressedly, "This is not your fault, Qingqing."

Worried that Shi Qing might not be in good spirits after just waking up, Cheng Ling asked her to have a good rest and then took everyone away.

-

The door was closed and Shi Qing couldn't help but cough a few more times.

My head was still dizzy and I closed my eyes in deep thought.

Meow.

This bastard Mu Xiuming pushed people without even saying hello.

If no one comes to save her, will she break her character and swim out on her own, or die early?

Damn it, I finally feel better, but now I’m sick again.

When I get the chance I will definitely take revenge.

Shi Qing suddenly opened his eyes.

He lowered his head and saw that his neck was empty and the pendant was no longer in his hand.

-

What a pity.

Mu Xiuming pushed Mu Yun because he knew that he was going to the garden.

Originally, I wanted to create a scene where Shi Qing fell into the pool while trying to pick up the necklace.

Unexpectedly, when he was "escaping", he was coincidentally spotted by Mu Yungui.

Although the ultimate goal is to promote contact between two people, it still feels a bit unpleasant that the process deviates from the plan.

-

While she was still conscious, someone seemed to put a cold towel on her forehead.

Shi Qing slowly opened his confused eyes, his stern face swaying back and forth expressionlessly.

"woke up?"

There was a deep and magnetic voice above my head.

Shi Qing wanted to say something, but he felt weak all over and couldn't utter anything even with his mouth slightly open.

My eyelids drooped heavily, but I still couldn't see the man's face clearly.

Mu Yungui glanced at her indifferently.

Her slightly opened lips were dry and pale, her cheeks were flushed, and her long eyelashes drooped, casting a shadow on her lower eyelids.

She seemed to be in great pain, her brows slightly furrowed, tears unconsciously flowing from the corners of her eyes.

It is so fragile that it seems like it would lose its life with just a slight pinch.

Mu Yungui's narrow and beautiful eyes were covered with a thin layer of cold mist as he looked down at her.

As reality and dreams intertwined, Shi Qing vaguely heard a cold voice.

"You are so disgusting now."

My mind reappeared with the loud roar of my mother's collapse, my father's pale and powerless eyes, and my brother's thin back with his teeth clenched tightly...

She thought to herself:

I hate myself like this, too.

-

When I woke up again, it was already daybreak.

Those chaotic images and sounds finally faded away, Shi Qing sighed softly, and the depressed and repressed emotions in his chest were relieved.

There was a familiar pendant next to the bed.

Soon, there was a knock on the room door.

Cheng Ling walked in and asked happily, "Qingqing, how do you feel today?"

Shi Qing's brows relaxed. "Very well, nothing is wrong. Thank you, Lingling, for making you worry."

Cheng Ling felt a little embarrassed.

"Come to think of it, it was your cousin who took care of you last night. I didn't do anything."

"Do you think my cousin is interested in you? Otherwise, why would he chase me away in the middle of the night and personally apply a towel to you to cool you down?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Shi Qing's eyes. "It turned out to be Brother Yun Gui. Is he still here? I want to thank him in person."

Cheng Ling: "It just so happens that he is still downstairs having breakfast. If you want to see him, maybe you can still make it in time."

Shi Qing's slightly tired face suddenly brightened up. She quickly got out of bed, washed, changed into a set of clean clothes, and ran downstairs.

When you reach the last two steps, jump down directly.

But there was no one in the living room.

There was a cup of leftover porridge on the table.

Cheng Ling followed and saw Shi Qing standing dejectedly in the empty living room.

Looking around, Cheng Ling patted Shi Qing on the shoulder and handed her a coat.

"Maybe my cousin is in a hurry to go to the company. I heard that he is very busy with a project recently. He doesn't care about these things, Qingqing."

Shi Qing knew that she was trying to comfort herself, but her tone still couldn't hide her disappointment: "Lingling, I..."

After hesitating for a long time, Shi Qing still couldn't explain it clearly.

Seeing her embarrassed face, which seemed to be a little shy, Cheng Ling suddenly realized: "Qingqing, you don't like my cousin, do you?"

She was always quite direct in her speech, so Shi Qing couldn't help but avoid her gaze and answered vaguely, "I didn't."

Seeing her reaction, Cheng Ling became more certain of his guess.

She suddenly laughed and said, "What's the big deal? Besides, I hate my cousin's expressionless face. Qingqing, you are so outstanding. It's his blessing that you like him."

Cheng Ling meant what she said. In her eyes, apart from Shi Qing's poor health, his character and appearance were first-rate.

"Qingqing, if you really like my cousin, I can help you."

"Really?" Shi Qing looked up in surprise, but the moment she met Cheng Ling's teasing gaze, she shyly looked away.

-

With the help of Cheng Ling, Shi Qing successfully added Mu Yungui's WeChat.

She sent a cute expression: "Brother Yungui, are you free to come out for dinner? I haven't had time to thank you for what happened last time."

Almost half an hour later, Mu Yungui’s message came back: “OK.”

It is still a very cold word.

Shi Qing quickly asked Cheng Ling and chose the most suitable location.

On the appointed day, Shi Qing specially wore a turquoise dress, which was gentle and elegant yet lively, and made her usually pale face look more energetic.

When we arrived at the restaurant, there was a cluster of fresh red roses on the table, and the atmosphere was ambiguous and warm.

Shi Qing waited for a while, and then Mu Yungui arrived.

"Sorry, there was something that delayed me at the company."

He explained why he was late and sat down gracefully.

"It's okay, I just got here."

Shi Qing took out a gift box from his side, "I took Lingling's advice into consideration. I want to thank Brother Yungui for his help many times."

Mu Yungui calmly took the gift and took a look at it. It was a dark green tie.

"Have a heart."

The tone was still indifferent, and it was hard to tell whether he was satisfied or not.

He suddenly remembered something, "I heard from Cheng Ling that you have not been in good health, and you got a fever when you fell into the water last time. How are you now?"

Those dark eyes were nonchalant and the tone was calm, as if it was a simple greeting.

"Much better." Shi Qing's eyes were bright and there was no sign of illness.

"I've never been in good health since I was a child, but I'm used to it. It's just a fever, nothing serious."

The color of Mu Yungui's eyes was pure black, bottomless, and seemed to carry a dark and extreme temptation.

"You really don't care? With such a weak constitution, if you get sick frequently, you will definitely die."

The girl's light-colored eyes suddenly filled with a smile, shining like the sun, lively and full of vitality.

"Life is the most precious thing to me. Compared to the fear of death and the pain of separation, this kind of physical pain is just a minor thing. I will not have such thoughts of suicide unless I have no choice."

Mu Yungui noticed her last sentence and raised a subtle arc at the corner of his lips, "Ms. Li, what do you mean by being forced to do so?"

Shi Qing lowered his eyes and seemed to think for a moment, "For example, a life for a life."

Hearing this, Mu Yungui's eyes were filled with a smile that he himself could hardly detect.

He seemed to be laughing. "Ms. Li's situation seems like a plot from a TV series. It is rare in reality."

Shi Qing's eyebrows curved slightly, "Brother Yun Gui is right."

Mu Yungui seemed to have received a satisfactory answer. He became less indifferent and would chuckle from time to time because of something Shi Qing said.

The communication was very warm and harmonious.

-

Just as Cheng Ling said, she constantly created opportunities to bring the two together.

Find opportunities to hang out together and then have some time alone.

Or you can invite them all home and play some small games together.

And Shi Qing is also strong enough and he is serious about conquering Mu Yungui.

They ask about each other's well-being, send meals and gifts, and almost seize every opportunity to express their love.

During this period, he was able to get close to Mu Yungui's heart because of Mu Xiuming.
