Pain, pain, pain!

In the future, if someone told her that removing the thread didn't hurt, she would be in a hurry with that person!

Xiang Tingxue bit her lips tightly as her tears rolled down her face. She couldn't hold it in any longer, they were so painful that she was about to faint.

When she was at the hospital with Tan Yunxiao, she had sewn seven needles.

When she was wounded, Doctor Wang gave her two more needles, for a total of nine.

However, after tearing four needles, Xiang Tingxue could not take it anymore. She told the Principal to step back while she hugged onto her arms, unwilling to tear away the remaining threads!

"Xiao Xue, don't be nervous, relax a little. "Just a little bit of it. I didn't even manage to react to that bit of pain when I undid the thread earlier!" Her reaction was completely due to his psychological fear. Seeing Xiang Tingxue's pale white face, Tan Yunxiao also broke out in a cold sweat.

She didn't even react like this that night, when she was cut, holding her arm, sitting in front of him sewing needles.

What happened to her? Why was he so afraid of untying the stitches?

Tan Yunxiao's heart ached, and he had a headache. She couldn't possibly live his life with these threads, and it wasn't like they could be absorbed at any time.

Not only did Xiang Tingxue ignore him, she even turned around with her back facing him.

There was some blood on her arm. It was so white that it hurt.

Xiang Tingxue held onto her arm and exhaled cold air. "My nerves are more sensitive than yours, it won't hurt if you don't, it'll hurt …" As she spoke, her voice became choked with emotions.

In truth, the pain on her arm was thousands of times lighter than when Zhen Haolin bit her. She could completely endure it.

However, she could not hold it in. She could not bear it either, because that pain came from her heart, a pain that destroyed her nerves.

And, as soon as the dean's cold tweezers came close to the line, she could not stop trembling, feeling the world's unparalleled pain sink into her heart.

Why was this happening?

Xiang Tingxue remembered clearly that when she was four years old, her father met with an accident. His back was injured, and there was a very long wound on it.

When she went to remove the stitches, she went with them.

Every time the doctor pulled a thread from her father's back, her heart trembled.

Mom said she was fine, but she could see the nervousness on her mother's face, as well as a strong fear of death.

She couldn't remember clearly how her father had gotten that wound, but the pain, the fear of death, had been clearly imprinted on her heart.

The small her, frightened, cast a deep shadow in her heart.

And from then on, she saw less of home and less of her parents.

Until one day, her elder sister came to pick her up and told her, "Mom and dad went to heaven …"

At that moment, she felt that the entire world had turned silent. Not a single sound could be heard.

Only the pain that had been wrenched from her father's back continued to envelop her.

Always...

Xiang Tingxue, who was highly tense, started to shiver like a leaf in the wind.

No matter how Tan Yunxiao hugged or coaxed her, it was to no avail. He could not suppress the deep fear in her heart!

His lips had turned purple, and his face was as white as snow. Tan Yunxiao was both worried and pained, as he used his hands to caress her chest and help her breathe easier. He then guided her anxiously, "Xiao Xue, relax, take a deep breath, quick, relax …"

Xiang Tingxue couldn't hear anything, and only sank into her own world. She clenched her teeth with a pained expression.

Seeing that, the dean gave Xiang Tingxue an injection to calm him down.

Immediately, Xiang Tingxue's eyes flipped over and she was no longer afraid. She fell into Tan Yunxiao's embrace, and obediently allowed others to untie the thread, hold her horizontally, and level the bed …

When Xiang Tingxue woke up from her sickbed, it was already five in the afternoon. She was a little confused by her own situation.

So Tan Yunxiao explained what happened just now, "What happened? Was it that painful? This is so scary! "

Xiang Tingxue scratched her head and pretended to smile embarrassedly, to cover up the secrets in her heart. "I used anesthetic on the needle and when I undid the stitches, how could it not hurt?"

Really?

His eyes flashed with a strange light, but Tan Yunxiao did not probe too deeply into it. Instead, he helped Xiang Tingxue to get his jacket while he invited him to go home so that they could have a meal together, to celebrate the recovery of his body and mind from the calamity.

Mi Li was about to leave, and tearing the thread had brought back painful memories. Xiang Tingxue was not in the mood to meet outsiders, nor was she in the mood to fawn and laugh with her grandfather.

Coincidentally, at this time, she received a call from Luo Yaxi: "Miss Xiang, congratulations on winning the interview. Please come to HTB at 9 in the morning to take the final exam!"

Using the exam as an excuse, Xiang Tingxue tactfully rejected Tan Yunxiao. "Tomorrow, for the last round of exams, I need to prepare. After I finish, tomorrow or the day after, we'll go home to see Grandfather together, okay?"

Her request was not excessive and was also very reasonable. Tan Yunxiao did not insist and sent Xiang Tingxue to school.

When Xiang Tingxue walked to the teaching building, she decisively turned around and left school, going over to the hospital to visit her sister.

His elder sister had just finished her physiotherapy and the Auntie Liu was helping her clean her body. On the foot of the sickbed, there was a nameplate: Tan Jingjie, 30 years old.

The cortical state is also known as the vegetative state.

Plant people, also known as living dead.

While in a deep coma, losing consciousness, and only maintaining the movement and heartbeat of her autonomous breathing, Tan Jingjie had already lied like this for six years.

In six years, he had silently slipped away from her.

When Auntie Liu was twisting the towel, she inadvertently saw Xiang Tingxue standing behind him. She was startled for a moment, then asked with a smile: "Crystal is here, when did she come?"

"Just now!" Xiang Tingxue walked forward and placed the bag at her feet.

"Why are you free today? Do you have to work tonight? " Auntie Liu wiped off the towel on Tan Jingjie's back and asked while lowering her head.

Tan Jingjie slept soundly, letting the Auntie Liu take control of her. She didn't see the sun for a long time, her back was as white as snow.

Xiang Tingxue walked up and took the towel in Auntie Liu's hands, then softly said: "Auntie Liu, I want to stay here for the night."

Auntie Liu paused as she held out her hand to help Tan Jingjie tidy up her clothes. Her eyes were filled with worry: "Did something happen?"

Xiang Tingxue put the towel back in the basin, and lightly smiled: "No, it's just that I haven't slept with big sister for a long time, I want to accompany you to sleep for the night."

The Auntie Liu looked at Xiang Tingxue and saw that her expression was still normal. Without thinking too much, she took the bowl and walked towards the bathroom: "Then I'll go out and buy food for you later. What do you want to eat?"

Xiang Tingxue was not picky with food.

Auntie Liu wiped her hands, changed out of her white nursing clothes, put on her cotton clothes and left the sickroom.

In a moment, only the two Xiang Tingxue and were left in the room.

Xiang Tingxue stood by the side of the bed, looking down at Tan Jingjie.

Tan Jingjie did not move, and laid quietly on the bed.

Elder sister, how long are you going to sleep like this for?

Xiang Tingxue let out a deep sigh. She took off her shoes, got on the bed, and lay down next to Tan Jingjie, whispering into her ear. "Big sister, when I was four years old, how did you get the wound on my back?"

Tan Jingjie did not react, and did not even move her eyelids.

Xiang Tingxue continued to ask, "After father was injured, why was it that I couldn't even return home, and that mother and father didn't come to visit me? What had happened? Who exactly is threatening our lives? "

"Sister, do you remember when I was five years old and I wanted to go swimming in a swimming pool? I begged you for a long time before you agreed to take me. "

His elder sister had agreed to bring Xiang Tingxue to swim, but on the way, they walked in a line with a large distance between them.

Her sister even warned her repeatedly, telling her, "Don't get too close to me, don't call me sister in front of others, remember?"

Xiang Tingxue immediately asked, "Why?"

Her elder sister didn't tell her, she only told her to remember.

"Why, sister, why can't I call you sister in public? Why would Mom and Dad oppose me coming out with you? What in the world is there that I can't see or expose? "

"I met Tan Yunxiao, and he said that his aunt's name was Tan Yixue. He was once Elder Zhen's wife. But I calculated that there didn't seem to be any connection between them. "

"Elder sister, if nothing happens, I can go to Tan Family tomorrow night. Although they have nothing to do with each other, I still want to get to know them and satisfy my own curiosity! "

Xiang Tingxue kept asking, kept asking, kept saying, thought of what to say, thought of what to say.

She didn't know how long she had been talking, but she felt dry and exhausted.

However, Tan Jingjie, who was beside him, was as calm as an idiot. She had been listening all this while, quietly listening, without any sort of response.

His phone was ringing beside his pillow. It was Zhen Haolin.

Xiang Tingxue looked out of the window. The sky was already completely dark and the Auntie Liu was already asleep. It was already past ten o'clock when she checked her watch on the wall.

It was already so late. No wonder his mouth felt dry and impatient. He had been nagging at his sister for such a long time!

Xiang Tingxue was afraid that the Auntie Liu would fall asleep, hence she put on her shoes and went to the balcony to make a call.

"I've already gone home. Where are you?" Zhen Haolin's furious voice came out from the other side of the phone.

The balcony was very cold. Xiang Tingxue shivered, then said of her own accord, "I'm going to remove the stitches. It's very painful, but all of you lied to me."

"It's just a little bit. You can't take it …"

"How do you know that? Do you know me well?" Xiang Tingxue scoffed, her eyes looking at the night sky, the flames in the sky lit up the sky, and it was unknown where the stars had gone.

It's lonely!

Zhen Haolin's voice dissipated in anger, and changed to a lazy tone, teasing: "I know better than you how much pain your body can endure."

Bastard!

Xiang Tingxue's face inexplicably became hot, and changed the topic: "Where's Mi Li? They all left? "

Zhen Haolin acknowledged his presence: "Since they have all left, Mi Li is also willing to accept this mission, so you no longer need to worry about her. "Where are you? Come back quickly, I miss you!"

"It's late, I'm not going back today, you …"

Zhen Haolin was not afraid of being late, no matter how late he was, he could not forget the old wife: "I'll pick you up, I'll drive myself, where are you?"

Xiang Tingxue looked up at the sky with the whites of her eyes, "I don't know either …"

"Xiang Tingxue..." Zhen Haolin raised his voice: "You want me to call CiCi? Do you want Ci Ci to brutally abuse Mi Li? "

is not the one being restrained, Mi Li is just here to suppress Xiang Tingxue, right?

Xiang Tingxue hatefully put away her phone, but she could only pack her things.

Before leaving, Xiang Tingxue lightly kissed Tan Jingjie on the forehead and whispered, "Big Sister, although Zhen Haolin is a bit overbearing and a bit detestable, I've discovered that I've really fallen in love with him!"

If you fall in love with him, that's why you brought him along, that despicable Zhen Haolin!

Although he complained, his heart was so sweet that it softened. Xiang Tingxue lightly closed the door and left.

The walkway was completely silent. Xiang Tingxue walked with light footsteps, but the sound of her thin heels still echoed from the ground, and a beeping sound floated above the entire sickroom.

Tan Jingjie laid on the sickbed, without making a sound, her chest moved up and down, supporting herself with the blanket.

Zhen Haolin!

Zhen Haolin!

Zhen Haolin!

This name was like a magic bell, floating from Tan Jingjie's ears to the heart, floating into the complex structure of the mind, resonating and revolving …

Zhen Haolin!

Love Zhen Haolin!

No...

Suddenly, Tan Jingjie's eyes, which had been asleep for six years, opened with a "pa" sound.
