Xia Xinxin was in a trance because she couldn't remember taking such a photo. When she thought about it, she realized that the hospital had taken a single photo of all the patients when they were on an inspection tour.

Looking at the photo of herself in front of her, Xia Xinxin felt like she was living a life she had never seen before.

Turning off the television, her heart felt a little heavy. She walked to the window and crossed her arms. She gently bit her lower lip, not knowing what to say.

Her picture must have been posted all over the place by now, and she would be easily recognized the moment she walked out.

It looked like she still had to remain anonymous for a while.

Jiang Ying could still do that. She was living the life that had once belonged to her.

Just as he was feeling extremely frustrated, he heard the door open. He turned around and saw Rick walking in with a bunch of things in his arms.

”You're back?” She hastily went up to him and took a look at the items in his hands. It was actually a variety of women's clothes, as well as some snacks.

So it turned out that he had run out early in the morning to help her buy these things.

”You woke up so early? I thought you were going to sleep until noon! ” Rick's hands were cold. He rubbed them and smiled.

Although it was already a sunny March, the spring in L city was still as cold as winter.

”I slept until I woke up naturally. Last night was my best night of sleep in recent months. ” she said, smiling.

”I know. Seeing your expression today, I knew that you finally managed to get a peaceful sleep. ” Rick smiled and picked up the phone. He ordered breakfast from the restaurant downstairs.

”It's just that An Xin came a little too early. Now, I guess I've become a topic of conversation after tea? ” Xia Xinxin smiled wryly as she switched on the television, pointing at the subtitles scrolling around below the screens, ”Did you see that? They have issued a wanted order against me. ”I don't think I'll be able to leave in a short time.”

Rick turned off the TV and smiled. ”Don't worry! I already knew that. After we finish our breakfast, I'll take you to see someone. ”

”Who?” Xia Xinxin was stunned.

”A person who can make everyone look at him in broad daylight.” Rick smiled enigmatically.

Xia Xinxin was overjoyed. Just as she was about to ask more, the doorbell rang.

Rick winked at her, and she took the hint and hurried into the room.

Although this place was basically Rick's territory, under these special circumstances, it was necessary to avoid it.

It was protecting her, but it was also protecting him.

She stayed in the room for a few minutes until she heard the door close. She couldn't wait to open the door and walk out.

”Can I go out later?” she asked urgently.

Rick pulled out a chair for her to sit in. ”Of course. ”This season, who wouldn't cover themselves tightly with a cotton jacket and a scarf? If you go out like this, who will find you?”

When she heard that, she couldn't help but laugh. Indeed! I was so anxious that I forgot about it. ”

”Eat!” After we eat, we'll go and meet with the people I've made an appointment with. I know you can't stay here in peace. ” Rick smiled and held the chopsticks out to her.

”Yes, yes.” Rick, the one who knows me, too! ” She nodded happily, took a bite from her egg and slowly swallowed it. Suddenly, she raised his head and said sorrowfully, ”Actually, I got lucky this time.”

”What do you mean?” Rick asked with a smile.

”To be able to meet you and become your friend, isn't that a blessing?” Xia Xiaoxi's eyes gradually deepened. ”Really.” In fact, on the surface, it seemed as if I had lost too much. But in reality, after so many trials, I had gained too much. ”To beg for something that you will never be able to get in your entire life.”

”Such as?” Rick's blue eyes were shining, and they shone beautifully in the warm sunlight.

”For example, I was designed by Jiang Ying and Xiao Bo Yao and thrown into the distant United States. I thought that I was on a dead end, but who would have thought that I would meet Mo Zixiao, JASON, and SUSAN. They are now my family. Also, when I went to the Survivor game, I met Dong Trang. Although in the beginning, we were both dependent on each other for our own benefits, in the end, she and I had become friends. I knew that my success in getting the $20 million prize was just a concession from her. When I came back, I met Little Gao and Ma Wu, who were like my family. And you, you appeared when I was in despair and grief. You know what? Sometimes I really feel that you are an angel sent by God to save me, a ray of light in my dark world. Without you, I would have been driven to madness and might even have to spend the rest of my life in that terrible place. ” Saying this, she smiled with a face full of warmth. ”But, you just appeared like this, and even became my friend. Compared to Jiang Ying, on the surface, she seemed to have received a lot. She stole my parents, acquired a lot of wealth, took away my most trusted brother, and seemed to have taken away everything. One day, she would have no lovers, no parents, no friends, and no happiness. So I am glad, and very grateful, that she has brought me so much more family and friends than ever before. Come to think of it, I really should thank her! ”

”Do you know? I'm really happy for you that you can think this way. Because life is indeed like this, we always inadvertently lose valuable things in the process of obtaining, and always in the process of losing precious things. So, never be desperate and don't be pessimistic, seeing everything in the sunlight will make you more beautiful! ”Don't let your beautiful heart be clouded by hatred.” Rick said gently with a smile.

”Yes.” ”I understand.” Xia Xinxin nodded vigorously.

”However, our kindness does not mean that we will give in. When faced with evil … When evil comes, we must also have the courage to punish good and evil. Judging from Jiang Ying's actions, she was extremely evil. So I hope you won't give her another chance to frame you! Kindness is a virtue. Kindness without a bottom line is often used by others instead. You must take note of this. ” Rick reminded him.

He liked her kindness, but he also did not want to see her repeat the same mistake because of her kindness.
