Chapter 146 Spit Up Blood... (2/2)
”You went scuba diving every day a few years ago before your gunshot wounds had healed. Now your body has finally become out of order.” Le Yi grumpily handed him a glass of water. ”Why you don't listen to me?”
Shen Xinglan took the glass and asked lightly, ”Can you cure it?”
”Cure what?” Le Yi shot him a glare. ”Have a good rest and it will be fine.”
”Then what's your hurry?”
Le Yi raised his eyebrows. ”I say, are you mad at me?”
Shen Xinglan pursed his lips and said, ”When you read A Miao's medical report, you didn't even see that the bullet in her abdomen had damaged her uterus.”
”Who said that I didn't see it? I...” Le Yi suddenly stopped speaking as he held his forehead and glanced at his eyes.
”Did you know?” Shen Xinglan stared at him. ”Why didn't you tell me?”
”Was telling you useful? Your legs were useless at that time!” Le Yi grabbed the glass. ”And even though her uterus had been injured, I never thought that she wouldn't be able to get pregnant at all unless her uterus was to be removed.”
At last, the voice of Shen Xinglan had a little spirit. ”Can you cure it?”
”Take a guess!” Le Yi gave him a look of smiling but not smiling.
The two of them stayed quiet for a few seconds, then Le Yi spoke first.
”A Miao's Amnesia?”
Shen Xinglan scoffed. ”She was faking it.”
”How do you know she was pretending?”
”I just know.” Shen Xinglan lifted up his head.
Le Yi laughed. ”You knew and still spat up blood?”
Shen Xinglan did not say a word. Actually, he believed it at that time, so he was unable to endure it. Later on, when he thought about it, although he did not talk to A Miao when he was on the island, he had seen her sitting by the sea alone, and her expression was clearly one of thinking of someone.
Most importantly, Aunt Zhang, who cooked her meals, once told him that A Miao had nightmares almost every night during the first year and always called out his name. At that time, Shen Xinglan specifically instructed Aunt Zhang not to tell A Miao about it.
”Since I am inside her nightmares, it's better not to let her know.”
Le Yi shrugged his shoulders. ”Then why did she pretend to not know you?”
”If I knew, would I still be sitting here?” Shen Xinglan said menacingly. ”Jiang Quanyu knows that I care about A Miao, so he threatened me with this matter.”
”Because he knows that you aren't going to uncover those cruel memories and make A Miao sad.” Le Yi sat down on the opposite sofa. ”But he made a mistake.”
Jiang Quanyu looked down on Shen Xinglan and underestimated his methods. Just as he had underestimated Jiang Hua in those days and gave him the chance to take A Miao far away.
”What are you going to do?” Le Yi was very interested as he looked at Shen Xinglan.
The beautiful eyebrows of Shen Xinglan drew an evil smile. ”If I can catch up with her once, naturally... there will be a second time!”
”Are you all right?” Jiang Quanyu helped A Miao get out of the car.
”I'm fine,” said A Miao with a shudder.
”Your face is full of tears...” Jiang Quanyu sighed and helped her into the villa. ”Sit still.”
Sitting down on the sofa, A Miao touched her face, which her fingers felt to be ice cold.
”Didn't you say that tears are hot?” She looked at her hand with empty eyes. ”Why are mine cold?”
A towel was directly placed on her face. Jiang Quanyu said grumpily, ”Because the air conditioner is too big, it's cold.”
…
A Miao could not help laughing. ”Is this the way to comfort me? It's too rough!”
”It just works.” Jiang Quanyu leaned against the sofa. ”Isn't that a smile?”
A Miao wiped her face clean and sat down beside the kung-fu tea set. ”Should I be praised?”
”I praise you for not collapsing until you got home!” Jiang Quanyu watched her thin white fingers move back and forth between the small teacups and the light mist that wafted from the light-green tea. ”Over the past three years, whenever you feel confused, you make tea.”
”It has good effects!” A Miao handed him a cup. ”You can also try it when you're in a bad mood.”
Jiang Quanyu took a sip and said, ”Whether it is effective or not, your level of tea making is getting better day by day. I even think that a professional cannot match you.”
”You are the only one who've been drinking it!” A Miao did not believe it.
”Is everything okay?” Jiang Quanyu put down the cup. ”If you really can't work, you can go back to northern Europe.”
A Miao smiled. ”And then hide for my lifetime?”
”Well, since you are staying here, you can't do it again.” Jiang Quanyu said earnestly, ”You know how cunning Shen Xinglan is, he can see if you slip up a bit. What's more, I thought, after today, he will certainly find an excuse to contact you.”
”I understand.” A Miao nodded. ”Don't worry, I will be careful.”
Unexpectedly, the next day, she was put to the test as Jiang Quanyu handed her the newspaper in the early morning.
”So, you and Shen Xinglan are in the headlines.”
