don't mess with her

The streets are full of people, and the official family is about to usher in a big wedding.

Lian Chen was sitting alone in the courtyard with a rickety rattan chair. The courtyard was extremely quiet, in stark contrast to the lively hall. From time to time, she could still hear the laughter of her father and mother, as well as the exaggerated remarks of the matchmaker. .

Holding a paper fan in her hand, her face was expressionless, and the events of the past few days were revolving in her mind little by little. She looked up at the sun that was tightly covered by white clouds, and her heart was floating in the distance.

How things turned into what they are now is just her impulsive impulse.

But Xiao Ruo, why didn't you stop me.

A few days ago, she came back from school skipping class and brought a piece of candied haws that Chi Zhining likes along the way. She always did this before, and Chi Zhining is used to it. No matter whether he is busy or not, he will always be in the yard Get her down.The first two times, she could still talk about her, she didn't study well, she just cared about having fun, and then she didn't say anything about it, maybe it was because of Lian Chen's personality, it was useless to talk more.

This time it was the same as usual, she skillfully climbed in from the wall of the backyard, but unexpectedly, it was not only Chi Zhining who was supposed to be waiting here, but her parents who were waiting for her in the yard.

After Lian Chen fell off the wall, he smiled awkwardly at the person in front of him, patted the dirt on his body, and threw the candied haws into the grass.

"Ahaha, why are you here?"

Lian Chen trotted up, making gestures to help them knead their hands and backs, but before his hands touched the clothes, his father looked at her fiercely and scolded: "Kneel down!"

Lian Chen's hands trembled, and she pursed her mouth and whispered, "Just kneel."

After she knelt down with a plop, Chi Zhining, who was standing beside her, also came over, knelt down beside her, and before she touched the ground, a whip hidden by her mother fell on Chi Zhining's arm, with a snap .

"What are you doing!" Lian Chen opened her eyes wide in surprise, and immediately leaned over to protect her, only to hear Chi Zhining, who lowered her head, bit her lip and grunted.

Seeing her mother raised her hand again, Lian Chen hugged Chi Zhining anxiously.

"What are you asking me for?" My mother was full of anger: "We let you go to school and study, just to give you some insight, but you skipped classes, and the teachers came to the house. You said that we have no face. Get out of the way!"

Lian Chen guarded her even tighter, raised her head and shouted loudly: "Does that have something to do with Xiao Ruo! Why are you beating her!"

"It doesn't matter?" Mother took a step forward and looked at the two people on the ground. Chi Zhining was tightly protected, and she couldn't do anything, "We spent money to save her father and buy her back, just to keep an eye on you , is that how she sees it?"

Seeing this, his father grabbed the whip from his mother and beat it down unceremoniously. He hated such an idler the most. When the whip fell, Lian Chen closed his eyes tightly, but he didn't feel the pain, only felt his own pain. His body was pressed, and then a familiar muffled hum sounded in his ears.

The whip landed on Chi Zhining's neck and shoulders, and within a moment, an obvious red mark appeared.

Regardless of the pain, Chi Zhining knelt down in front of the payment, lowered her head and said, "It's my fault, it has nothing to do with Miss, it's my dereliction of duty."

The father snorted loudly, and pointed at Lian Chen with a whip, "If you are like this, you might as well get married early, and save yourself from running around at home."

"Marry as soon as you marry, what's the big deal." Lian Chen frowned and stood up, pulling up Chi Zhining, who was kneeling on the ground, and looked at her mother with an angry look: "You decide, I think the Song family That one is pretty good."

Lian Chen dragged Chi Zhining back to the room, locked the door and pulled her onto the bed, pinched her chin and carefully checked the wound, it didn't matter, she seemed to see her clothes The looming red mark in the collar.

"They beat you when I didn't come back?"

Chi Zhining stood up from the bed, straightened her clothes and smiled, "No, Miss, are you thirsty? I'll make tea." After she finished speaking, she lifted her foot and was about to walk out.

"Go one more step and try."

Chi Zhining only paused when she heard this, and then lifted her foot to leave again. Lian Chen cursed, but with the strength she didn't know where she came from, she grabbed Chi Zhining's arm and threw her on the ground. bed.

Chi Zhining's wound was pressed, so she couldn't hold back and called out softly. Lian Chen suddenly realized that her actions were too rough, stepped forward in embarrassment, and coughed a few times: "You just sit down." She caught her collar, as if she was about to take it off, but after moving a few minutes, she felt something was wrong, "You... you take it off by yourself, I'll see where it's all gone."

"No need, Miss." Chi Zhining raised her head and smiled, "Nothing hurt."

Lian Chen stomped his feet angrily, thought for a while, pointed to the door and said, "If you don't listen to me again, I will go out. You should know, they will beat me to death."

Seeing that Chi Zhining finally showed signs of loosening, she felt relieved, pointed to the bed and said, "Take off your clothes and lie down, where do you keep all your medicines?"

Chi Zhining pointed to the right: "The second drawer of that cabinet."

After hearing this, Lian Chen raised his foot and left, only took two steps and turned back. Seeing that Chi Zhining was indifferent, he coughed and said, "Big... everyone is a girl, you... don't worry, I'll give you medicine."

The process of this and that medicine is very lengthy. Lian Chen felt that the drawer in front of her was being pulled out inch by inch. She didn't know what she could see when she turned her head. , that was Chi Zhining taking off her clothes.

She is undressing.

Lian Chen swallowed hard, the hand that held the medicine was trembling, she closed her eyes and let out a big breath, held the medicine in the palm of her hand in one breath, pushed the drawer in, stood up and turned her head over, I saw that Chi Zhining's clothes were half covered, her face was a little embarrassed, her coat was taken off, and her upper body was vainly wrapped.

Lian Chen walked over pretending not to care, sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and grabbed the corner of the clothes, took off the coat without haste, and only wore a green apron on her body.

She only felt that her face was very hot, but fortunately Chi Zhining lowered her head and could not see her expression.

Lian Chen took a general look at her injuries, they were neither too many nor too few, but she could imagine how much she had suffered when she was not around. Thinking of this, she felt very distressed.

That's how she is, she doesn't want to say anything, she doesn't say anything, but she only treats her silently.

But this is good because she is her young lady. If she breaks away from this relationship, will she be as indifferent to her as she is to others.

"Get down." Lian Chen said lightly.

Chi Zhining heard that she lay down obediently, and Lian Chen sat beside her, looking at her bruised back in a daze, the white back was shocking.

In such a scene, she should have no distractions.

"Miss."

Chi Zhining's words interrupted her thoughts, she froze for a while, then unscrewed the medicine in her hand, got a small spoon on her fingertips, and wiped it on her wound.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt."

"Tell me the pain."

"kindness."

Two or three marks, no matter how slow Lian Chen is, they will eventually end. She even wiped off the last point a few times. After it was over, she put her hand on Chi Zhining's shoulder and rubbed her face a few times. A protruding bone, couldn't help but leaned down and kissed it.

Chi Zhining buried her head in the pillow, her body froze, and she bit her lower lip hard.

"I'm afraid my mother is going to match me."

Lian Chen covered the medicine and said, "I was too impulsive just now."

"Miss, do you want to marry?" Chi Zhining asked suddenly.

Lian Chen sneered, wouldn't she know if she wanted to marry or not, Chi Zhining, you are so smart, I don't believe you don't know what I'm thinking.

"Do you think I want to marry?" Lian Chen lowered his head and sighed, seeing that Chi Zhining didn't intend to answer, he asked again: "Do you want me to marry?"

Chi Zhining was still lying on her stomach, with a soft voice: "I remember Miss asked me this."

Lian Chen looked at her back: "I'll ask you again today."

"I still have the same answer."

Lian Chen's hand holding the medicine tightened: "I want to hear you say it again."

There was no immediate answer to this question. Chi Zhining thought about it for a long time, and the time passed, as if she could see the plaster on her back being dried by the air.

After a long time, she heard her whisper: "But, I don't want to say it again."

The atmosphere became weird, maybe it was because the two couldn't see each other, so their words were bolder. Chi Zhining didn't intend to get up, and even Chen didn't intend to leave. She was lying on her stomach, she was sitting edge of the bed.

"Xiao Ruo." After a long time, Lian Chen finally said, "I will only say this once today, so listen carefully."

She closed her eyes and opened them again: "I think, mother should start to collect those things, but you know, if I don't want to, no one can force me, Xiao Ruo, I will give you a chance, you want you to tell me I, you want you to say, you don’t want to.” Lian Chen said that she was a little choked up here, she stopped, let out a big breath, blinked her eyes, and continued, “As long as you say you don’t want me to marry, I stop everything."

After she finished speaking, she looked at her back and the bow tied with the bellyband, "I know you heard."

"I know you understand."

She stood up slowly, took a few steps to put the medicine back, walked to the bed, saw that Chi Zhining was still lying on her stomach, frowned and said, "I'll give it to you, one day." She thought about it Think, "No, five days, uh, I'll give you ten days to give me the answer."

Chi Zhining remained indifferent.

Lian Chen sighed: "You lie down, I'll go out for a while."

She needs to calm down, the matter has come to this point, she believes that Chi Zhining understands.

No, Chi Zhining should have understood a long time ago, although she is usually laughing and laughing, she can never pretend to be in her mind, it's not that she is being cryptic, it's that Chi Zhining is pretending not to understand.

The moment the door was closed, Chi Zhining was finally willing to raise her head. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and slowly sat up straight.

Putting on the clothes that were put aside, she put on her shoes and stood up. She turned her head and glanced at the mirror in the mirror, and raised her hand to touch the bone on her shoulder, as if it still had the residual warmth of her lips.

Chi Zhining frowned, covering her heart with her hands, feeling a little hurt.

It hurts.
