just like it

Wu Xia lay quietly for a while, and felt that Qiao Ruige was not shaking so much, so she patted him on the back: "It's all right."

Qiao Ruige raised his hand to touch his head and body: "Are you okay?"

The voice sounded unsteady, trembling with lingering fear.

"It's okay." Wu Xia patted him on the back again.

At this time, the truck had already stopped, and the co-workers at the courier station ran over, yelling that someone wanted to come to Laqiao Ruige, and Wu Xia hurriedly stopped him: "Don't move, let him get up by himself."

Qiao Ruige raised his body, put his left arm on the ground, and immediately changed his face: "It hurts."

"Where does it hurt?" Wu Xia asked nervously.

"Elbow." Qiao Ruige gritted his teeth.

Wu Xia hurriedly called to his colleagues to help him lift Qiao Ruige up, followed by himself, ignoring the sand on his body, grabbed Qiao Ruige's left arm and stroked it gently from top to bottom.

Seeing his tense expression, Qiao Ruige didn't seem to be in pain anymore, he smiled and said indifferently: "I just hit the ground, and it shouldn't break."

Wu Xia raised her head and stared at him with fierce eyes.

Qiao Ruige immediately shut up obediently.

In the afternoon, Wu Xia asked for leave and accompanied Qiao Ruige to the hospital for an examination. Qiao Ruige was happy in his heart, but his face didn't show it at all, and he asked, "Can you leave? There are so many packages, I won't deliver them? I won't deduct your money." Bar?"

Wu Xia glanced at him: "You actually care about this."

Qiao Ruige smiled: "It doesn't matter if you deduct money, I will pay you back."

Wu Xia said calmly, "No need."

I went to the hospital to register and line up for examination and filming. In the end, the doctor said that it was just some contusions and I could rest for two days.

Wu Xia breathed a sigh of relief, raised his eyes, Qiao Ruige smiled at him, and said with some complacency, "I said it's fine."

Wu Xia was suddenly in a daze. He seemed to have returned to the beginning, watching Qiao Ruige holding his own X-ray, and proudly said, "I am so handsome even with my bones."

Qiao Ruige saved him again, and hurt his hand again.

Fate seemed to have played a small joke on them. Their footprints were obviously scattered, but they turned into a circle again as they walked.

Asking the doctor to prescribe some ointment for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, Wu Xia and Qiao Ruige left the hospital and got into the car.

Qiao Ruige's car arrived, and Wu Xia sat in the driver's seat. Seeing that Qiao Ruige's hands were inconvenient, she leaned over to help him fasten his seat belt.

Qiao Ruige lowered his eyebrows and looked at the hair spinning on his head, and suddenly smiled and said, "It's a good thing you learned how to drive, otherwise, you wouldn't even be able to find electric tricycles here."

Wu Xia was stunned for a moment, turned around and sat down, fastened his seat belt, put his hands on the steering wheel, and there was no movement for a long time.

Qiao Ruige didn't rush him, but just looked at his side face quietly.

"Don't do this in the future." Wu Xia finally said.

"Ok?"

"Don't rush out like this, it's too dangerous."

"Then I can't do it."

Wu Xia turned to look at him, seemingly helpless.

Qiao Ruige looked straight into his eyes and said sincerely: "You are in danger, I will definitely rush forward."

Wu Xia didn't speak. He watched Qiao Ruige quietly for a long time, started the car, and said, "Let me treat you to dinner."

Qiao Ruige's eyes dimmed, and he quickly hid the disappointment in his eyes, stretched his waist and said, "I don't want to eat outside."

Wu Xia drove and looked at the road ahead, and said casually, "Buy vegetables and cook them yourself?"

"Okay," Qiao Ruige immediately agreed, but immediately said, "Don't make it too complicated, just... cook some noodles."

This half-day vacation is a rare rest for Wu Xia. He doesn't want Wu Xia to make himself tired from cooking a meal. Thinking about the cramped kitchen in that old house, cooking in this kind of weather is simply suffering. He regretted not agreeing to eat outside.

Wu Xia did not make a very complicated dinner. At Qiao Ruige's request, he made ordinary shredded pork noodles with green vegetables.He is not good at cooking, and he thinks that the food he cooks can be regarded as "passable" at best.

However, Qiao Ruige ate very deliciously, and he was very generous. He quickly removed half of a bowl of noodles, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, it was my left hand that was injured, otherwise I would have to ask you to feed me again."

Wu Xia glanced at him, but said nothing.

Qiao Ruige immediately said, "I'm just kidding."

Wu Xia ate the noodles with her head buried, chewed slowly, and said, "Do you want me to feed you?"

Qiao Ruige was stunned: "Huh?"

Wu Xia said, "I'm just joking."

After he finished speaking, he continued to bury his head in eating noodles. Qiao Ruige was stunned for a long time, and then he laughed dryly.

At night, Qiao Ruige found that taking a bath became a big problem again.

Although his injury this time was not serious, it was in the joints. The doctor said that it would take at least two or three days to recover. Now he can't lift his left arm, and he can't exert strength. Even twisting the towel is inconvenient.

More importantly, he didn't dare to ask Wu Xia to wash it for him.

Yes, I dare not.

When he thought about it, he felt that he was really... a bold person with a high art?He dared to ask Wu Xia for any request, but now he really didn't dare to say this, for fear that Wu Xia would make him look bad and drive him out.

Qiao Ruige hesitated and decided not to wash it, but it was really uncomfortable to sweat all over this day. After struggling in the bathroom for a long time, he opened the door to Wu Xia and said, "Can you wipe it off for me?"

Wu Xia was taken aback.

"I won't wash it anymore, you can help me wipe it with hot water." Qiao Ruige explained.

"……Oh."

The bathroom is really too small, not much bigger than the shower room in the hotel.

Qiao Ruige took off only a pair of underwear, and stood against the wall as much as possible. Wu Xia took a basin of hot water and put it on the stool, pulled off the towel and scrubbed in the basin.

Hearing the sound of water behind him, Qiao Ruige felt that the temperature in the small space seemed to rise again, so he stretched out his hand and pushed the window out.

When the back of his neck became hot, Wu Xia covered his neck with a towel.

Qiao Ruige froze and immediately stopped moving.

The slightly warmer towel wiped from the back of his neck to his right shoulder, then from his right shoulder to his left shoulder, then slid down his back to his lower back, and then slowly went up again.

Wu Xia wiped slowly, with a little force, the hot towel took away the sweat from her body, and also brought bursts of muscle relaxation and softness.

Qiao Ruige closed his eyes. He felt that he had made a mistake. It had been a long, long time since he had such close contact with anyone, let alone Wu Xia.

When he closed his eyes, he could hear the sound of Wu Xia scrubbing the towel, and felt the increasingly unconcealable reaction in his body when the towel was passed over his body. Like electricity, it brought him painful and longing stimulation.

Qiao Ruige opened his eyes and looked at the narrow window, he thought, this place is really too narrow and too hot.Perhaps the more he thought about it, the easier it was to take it seriously. His breathing became heavy, and he even had the illusion of lack of oxygen.

When the towel touched his waist again, he grabbed Wu Xia's hand violently.

Wu Xia froze.

Qiao Ruige moved his hand away from the back of Wu Xia's hand little by little, grabbed the towel with difficulty and slowly pulled it forward, his voice was a little hoarse: "Go out."

After being dazed for a few seconds, Wu Xia slowly let go of his hand, and Qiao Ruige heard him exit the bathroom and close the door.

Almost immediately, Qiao Ruige unscrewed the cold water in the shower, and stood with his head down under the water, his chest heaving sharply.

Wu Xia leaned against the bathroom door, lowered her head and stared at the concrete floor under her feet. After a long time, she finally breathed out as if unable to hold back.

This night, I went to bed earlier than the previous few days. I turned off the lights and lay down on the bed, but the two of them didn't feel sleepy for a while.

Before, it was Wu Xia who was too tired and almost fell asleep in seconds, but now everyone is awake, and the atmosphere is suddenly a little awkward.

Qiao Ruige stared at the small ceiling fan dangling on the ceiling, feeling his throat a little dry.

"Thank you today." Wu Xia said.

Qiao Ruige said: "You don't need to say thank you to me."

"You saved me again."

"No, you saved me."

Wu Xia was silent, as if she didn't want to argue with Qiao Ruige. After a while, he asked, "Why...why did you cancel the engagement?"

Qiao Ruige was stunned for a moment, he thought Wu Xia would never ask this question, but now that he asked it suddenly, he couldn't tell whether he felt relieved or sour.

After a while he said, "I don't like her."

Wu Xia said, "Is liking important?"

George was silent.

The reason "I don't like it" is so flimsy, as if he chose to get married because he liked it.

Qiao Ruige felt bitter for a while, he thought that Wu Xia really saw through him, isn't he the scum who doesn't take feelings seriously?Now it's ridiculous to use feelings as an excuse.

After a long silence, Qiao Ruige said: "I will not marry a woman who pushes me to crash a car."

"What?" Wu Xia was stunned.

Qiao Ruige began to slowly tell the truth about that day, about the fights with Qiao Xinda in the past, about how he left the Qiao family in the past two years, how he started from the beginning step by step, how he found him...

Wu Xia listened silently until he felt Qiao Ruige hold his hand.

Qiao Ruige held his hand in his hand and rubbed it lightly. These hands were once thin and smooth. Now due to frequent driving and moving goods, several thin calluses had grown on the base of his fingers. Qiao Ruige rubbed those thin calluses , said softly: "You don't have to rush to pay me back. I said I don't want you to pay it back. I mean it. But if you insist on paying it back, just pay it back. Take your time. Why do you have to work so hard on yourself?"

Wu Xia opened his mouth, but made no sound.

Qiao Ruige said: "Come back with me."

Wu Xia couldn't help shrinking her fingers.

Qiao Ruige said again: "I won't... treat you like that again..."

There was sleepiness in his voice, his speech was very slow, and it sounded a bit vague.

Wu Xia turned to look at him, Qiao Ruige was lying on his side with his eyes closed, and he was still saying, "Come back with me, I won't... make you suffer anymore... I won't... make you suffer... ..."

His voice became lower and lower until it gradually became quiet, with only slow breathing.

Wu Xia turned sideways to face Qiao Ruige very lightly and slowly. Qiao Ruige closed his eyes and breathed smoothly, as if he had fallen asleep.He insisted on getting up early with Wu Xia these days, and he was really tired.

Wu Xia couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.

He never thought about the truth behind the car accident that day. He thought that Qiao Ruige was injured to save Kang Yiting, but it turned out not. Location, but it turned out not. He thought that he would never have any intersection with Qiao Ruige again, but it turned out not to be.

I also feel stupid, I have been taking care of Qiao Ruige in the hospital for so long, but I have never seen anyone from Kang's family come, why didn't I notice it at all?But at that time, his mind was all on Qiao Ruige, so he didn't have the energy to think about other things.

Qiao Ruige said that he had been looking for him for two years, and Wu Xia asked over and over in his heart, why?Why are you looking for me?guilt?Pity?Why?

But he didn't even ask, he just looked at the sleeping Qiao Ruige, his eyes gradually softened.He traced Qiao Ruige's eyebrows, eyes, bridge of nose and mouth with his eyes almost inch by inch, and carefully outlined the outline of his facial features.

He remembered the trembling of Qiao Ruige's body when he threw himself on him today. It happened so suddenly. At that time, he didn't have time to feel any kind of fear in his heart. Now he remembered belatedly, facing the approaching truck, Will Qiao Ruiger remember the car accident?Will he be more afraid?Obviously afraid to rush over, what is it...

Wu Xia didn't dare to think about it, he looked at Qiao Ruige's sleeping face under the hazy light, gently raised his hand, and slowly stretched towards Qiao Ruige, as if wanting to touch his face.

The moment his fingertips were about to touch, Qiao Ruige suddenly opened his eyes.

Wu Xia held his breath, his heart was pounding, and he forgot to take his hand back just like that.

There seemed to be bloodshot eyes in Qiao Ruige's eyes, and his eyes were not clear. He stared at Wu Xia for a while, ignoring Wu Xia's raised hand, stretched out his arm and pulled him into his arms, resting his chin on Wu Xia's forehead, Said in a sleepy voice, "Good night."

Wu Xia was trapped in his arms, in a dilemma.

Struggle, it's George's injured arm that surrounds him, he's afraid it will hurt him; don't struggle, this flesh-to-flesh intimate gesture is really terrible.

In the end, Wu Xia closed her eyes and thought to herself, just don't get prickly heat all over her body.

When he woke up in the morning, Qiao Ruige found that there was no one around him again.He sat by the bed in a daze for a while, then slowly got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom, only to find Wu Xia sitting at the table reading a book unexpectedly.

"You didn't go to work?" Qiao Ruige was so surprised that his voice changed.

"I've already resigned." Wu Xia was very calm.

"What?" Qiao Ruige was still surprised.

Wu Xia looked at him: "Didn't I bring someone with me these few days? He just came to replace me."

Qiao Ruige thought about it for a while, and said, "It means, you quit a few days ago?"

"Ah."

"why?"

Wu Xia got up and went to the kitchen: "Go wash up, I've bought breakfast."

"Oh."

While washing his face and brushing his teeth, Qiao Ruige was faintly happy.He thought, since Wu Xia quit her job, wouldn't she be able to go back with him?No matter what Wu Xia is going to do after going back, he will always be closer to him, won't he?

After sitting down for breakfast, Qiao Ruige gradually came back to it.

The person who replaced Wu Xia appeared after he came, right?So, Wu Xia resigned after he came, because he wanted to... avoid him?

Thinking of this, Qiao Ruige felt mixed feelings for a moment. He put down his chopsticks and looked at Wu Xia, with grievance and self-blame in his eyes.

Wu Xia didn't seem to care, and said, "I've already vacated this house, and the landlord will come to take over the house tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. By then, your injuries should be almost the same, right?"

"Huh? Ah." Qiao Ruige really felt that he was very dull now. He heard Wu Xia's words clearly, but he didn't seem to understand what he meant.

"Then can I take your car?" Wu Xia asked.

Qiao Ruige gradually straightened his back: "You, you want to go?"

"Ah."

"Where to go?"

Wu Xia shrugged: "Let's go home and stay for a while, it's been too long away from home."

"Okay, I'll see you off." Qiao Ruige looked at him, his heart gradually became happy again, and there was no hint of longing in his eyes, "However, can I take you to a place first?"
