[Pretender] Makoto Honya

In Dr. Su's small clinic, Qiao Yu was lying in the ward just after surgery.

He was injured because he saved Mingtai, and Mingtai and Mingcheng naturally couldn't leave because of emotion and reason. The two sat side by side by the bed, like children who have done something wrong.

Qiao Yan and Qiao Yang went back to rest first, Yu Manli did not leave, and Cheng Jinyun also stayed as a nurse. When Qiao Baizhou came to visit with Qiao Ruyuan, the small ward became a bit crowded.

The wound on his leg didn't affect Qiao Yu's desire to speak in the slightest. After going through a battle and an operation, instead of feeling tired, he was full of energy and eloquent.

If it was normal, Qiao Baizhou would definitely be the first to tell him to shut up, and Qiao Ruyuan would definitely listen to him indifferently.But now that he was lying pitifully on the hospital bed, the brothers and sisters sat down obediently and listened to him carefully.

With so many listeners, Qiao Yu performed supernaturally when he told the story. It may be because he held back too much evil fire in this scene. He didn't have any scruples about the protagonist of the story being on the scene. tears.

"...I just heard Miss Cheng yell 'I can't leave Man Zai alone', and then ran out and disappeared into the grove...How can Young Master Ming let his beloved woman be alone in danger? After the next sentence, 'You retreat first', I followed, and I was going to live and die with my lover..."

When Mingcheng heard this, he looked at Cheng Jinyun with dissatisfaction.He really wanted to know how such a ignorant person was allowed to enter the organization?

"...Miss Cheng was so anxious that she called Man Zai's name loudly, but she didn't know that the Japanese army's guns were already aimed at her, and it was about to lead to a tragedy in the world... It was too late and then too soon, and Young Master Ming put it all at once. In her arms, she rolled into a deep pit bunker..."

If it was just dissatisfaction just now, then here, Mingcheng's eyes are already unkind, and the young master who is cooperating with our family who is so charming and pampered like a baby is here to block the gun for you?

Mingtai naturally felt his dissatisfaction when he was beside him.When the incident happened, he was only focused on fighting, and as a man, it was his responsibility to protect his own woman.

But now that Qiao Yu had sorted out the whole thing in an exaggerated way, he also faintly complained to Cheng Jinyun.If she hadn't acted emotionally, they wouldn't have been in danger later, and caused others to be injured trying to save him.

"... Seeing the guns of the Japanese army in front of her eyes, Ms. Cheng had tears in her eyes, and said to Young Master Ming righteously, 'Leave me a bullet'. Young Master Ming looked at her distressedly. She hugged her tightly..."

"enough!"

Ruyuan slammed the water glass on the table to the ground with a 'snap' and smashed it to pieces.Her delicate face was covered with frost, and she looked at Cheng Jinyun like a poisoned ice skate, and she stood up from the chair all at once.

When Mingtai saw her standing up, her body was ahead of her reason, and she blocked Cheng Jinyun all of a sudden, and then suddenly realized that she was a little too aggressive, and he smiled flatteringly at Qiao Ruyuan.

"Hey, sister Ruyuan, don't get excited, we have something to talk about."

Ruyuan glared at him and sneered.

"Do you think I'll hit her? Let me tell you, when I meet this kind of person, I don't even take a look. Talking to her is a waste of my time."

Cheng Jinyun knew he was wrong, so he stood behind Mingtai with his head down and didn't speak.

Ruyuan glanced at her, and scolded Yu Manli who was looking complicated.

"Yu Manli, you lost to this kind of man in arguing for a man. You are a waste! Besides, what's so good about a man who can fancy a woman like this? It's not as good as a mallet!"

Yu Manli was a little fooled by being scolded, but she also knew that Ruyuan was targeting Cheng Jinyun. She herself was full of resentment, so naturally she enjoyed listening to it.

'Bangchui' could only smile wryly when he heard the accusations of Sang and Huai, but he was the one who was saved, and he was the one who was wronged, and he really couldn't care less about Ruyuan.This time, the people of Qiao's family helped so much, and they suffered so much, it's not a big deal to be scolded.

He glanced at Cheng Jinyun behind him. She blushed a little from the humiliation, and her eye circles were also red. Although she did something wrong, it made him feel distressed to be said so, and he couldn't help but give Mingcheng his help-seeking gaze.

Mingcheng received a distress signal from his young master, and he was extremely unwilling to block the gun at this time.

He looked at Qiao Baizhou, who had been drinking tea leisurely beside him without saying a word since entering the ward, and guessed that the other party would not interfere.

After thinking about it, Mingcheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and stand up. After all, Cheng Jinyun is the future sibling, so how will they get along with each other now that they are too stiff?

"Ruyuan..."

Ruyuan glanced at him coldly. Although she was angry, she was still rational. She didn't want to embarrass him in front of everyone.

"Brother Qiao Yu, Brother Qiao Yang will come to pick you up in a while and go home to recuperate. We have something to talk about at home."

After she finished talking to Qiao Yu, she told Qiao Baizhou, "Brother, you can stay with him here, I'll go back first."

Qiao Baizhou nodded, and stared at Mingcheng with a deep meaning in his eyes, Mingcheng didn't understand for a while.

But seeing Ruyuan turn around to leave, he still knew to follow.After other people's accounts have been settled, it's his turn.

*****

After leaving the small clinic, there is a lawn, Ruyuan walked to the bench and sat down in silence, without saying a word.

Mingcheng knew that she was in a bad mood, but he didn't know how to comfort her.

'Slap'.Ruyuan lowered her head, tears rolled down her cheeks, dripping onto her beautiful dress.

Mingcheng, who had been paying attention to her all the time, was startled, and pulled her face with his hands, seeing her unstoppable tears, and wiped them for her distressedly.

"Don't cry, I'm sorry..."

Her tears made him flustered, and he watched her cry more and more fiercely, wiping away more and more tears.

For the first time, Mingcheng understood why it was said that a woman's tears are the best weapon. Every drop of her tears hit his heart hard, scaring him more than bullets.

He sighed, held her face in his hands, and gently kissed her eyelids, "Hey, don't cry, huh? You cry so much that I don't know what to do."

Ruyuan turned her head to avoid his kiss, her eyes looked at the grass behind him, she refused to look at him, but her tears gradually stopped.

The rejection written all over her body made Mingcheng's heart tighten, and then an indescribable loss and fear welled up.

He stared at the tantrum girl, and sighed helplessly in his heart. It turned out that there really was someone who, with every frown, smile, and every action, could make him haunt his dreams.

Mingcheng let go of her, got off the bench, squatted down in front of her, and took her hands.

"I'm stupid, I don't know how to make you happy, so tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Ruyuan lowered her head, looked at him with a sincere face, shook her head sadly, and finally agreed to speak.

"I'm sad not because you did something wrong, but because I know that if there is a next time, you will make the same choice. It's useless for me to say anything."

Mingcheng was startled, and his eyes were full of guilt and pity when he looked at her.

She is such a considerate girl who understands him and respects his choice.She didn't say it to avoid embarrassing him, but he understood how much his choice should make her sad.

Just like in the ward, when he opened his mouth, she forcibly suppressed her temper. She was always so gentle to him.

Mingcheng opened his mouth, but found that he was speechless, meeting her transparent but sad eyes, he felt that he was simply heinous.

Ruyuan raised her right hand and wiped away the wet tears.

"Mingcheng, tell me, is it in your heart that the lives of Sister Mingjing, Minglou, and even Mingtai are more important than yours, and are worth your own life?"

Mingcheng opened his eyes wide, the girl's cold voice pierced into his heart like a sharp sword, and only then did he realize that he was so cruel to her.He imposed his responsibilities to the Ming family on her, making her live in fear and trepidation.

Without any thought, he knelt down in front of her on one knee, held her hands tightly, and lowered his head, hoping that she could understand his confession.

Only now did he understand that he might be worthy of his eldest sister, his elder brother, and the Ming family, but he could never be worthy of her no matter what.
