Chapter 276: Wen Li 1 wakes up Lu Xixiao with his knee; scratches Wen Li's hand
Wen Li looked at Lu Xixiao who was sleeping beside her bed, then looked away and looked at the ceiling. After a while, she noticed a slight movement, so slight that it didn't seem like she noticed it, but felt it. So she looked back and saw that Lu Xixiao, who was originally lying face down with his forehead resting on his arm, had turned towards her and was sleeping with half of his face resting on her arm.
He showed no signs of waking up.
Wen Li's gaze naturally fell on his face.
Seeing the obvious dark circles under Lu Xixiao's eyes.
There was only one downlight in the ward, and the brightness was set to the lowest. His face looked very haggard in this light, and his eye sockets seemed deeper than usual, which made his nose bridge look even higher. Because he had not had a good rest for a long time, the corners of his eyes were a little red, and the new blue stubble on his chin had not been shaved yet. This tired look on his face made it look like he had had some contouring done. His facial features were deep and revealed a cold and stern feeling. His forehead hair was slightly messed up by being pressed on his arm, and the casualness brought about just right to offset the cold and stern feeling.
Wen Li was too lazy to move his eyes away for a moment, and his gaze stayed directly on Lu Xixiao's face, and his eyes unconsciously copied Lu Xixiao's superior facial features.
It is hard not to stare at beautiful things for a few more glances, especially when you are bored. As for other aspects of Lu Xixiao, including his personality, Wen Li always has a "hehe" attitude.
This was the only face she had never denied.
Lu Xixiao, who was finally able to rest in peace, slept soundly.
The brows that had been furrowed for several days were finally relaxed.
It was like he had let down all his guard.
Relaxed, he looked non-aggressive.
Wen Li's eyes were filled with a hint of curiosity. As she was looking, Lin Zhuxi suddenly said that Lu Xixiao had ill intentions towards her. Wen Li's expression froze slightly, and the way she looked at Lu Xixiao immediately became unnatural.
She decisively shifted her gaze away from Lu Xixiao's face and looked back at the ceiling, believing that out of sight, out of mind.
But my brain refused to cooperate and my thoughts were completely out of control.
It forced her to recall everything that happened in Tokyo.
She remembered Lu Xixiao appearing outside her room in a black turtleneck sweater to congratulate her on winning the championship, she remembered Lu Xixiao putting a scarf on her at the fireworks festival, she remembered the awkwardness in the hot springs, she remembered Lu Xixiao wearing a yukata and barefoot in public and cautiously asking her if she was still angry...
My thoughts started to flow forward.
She remembered Lu Xixiao holding her in his arms as he crossed the street in the rain, she remembered how this black marketeer, upon learning she was Grey, had disregarded the Lu family's reputation to clear her name, she remembered how Lu Xixiao had celebrated her birthday last year wearing the ill-fitting suit she had paid for...
As more and more memories came to mind, Wen Li felt inexplicably irritated.
Wen Li was already feeling unwell and was even more annoyed by being hospitalized. She closed her eyes and, feeling sore all over, she impatiently wanted to change the position of her legs. However, when she retracted her legs, her knee hit Lu Xixiao's head precisely with quite a bit of force.
After being hit, Lu Xixiao suddenly woke up from his sleep.
He opened his eyes and looked a little scared.
Lu Xixiao, who had a slight headache, was a little confused.
He sat up and looked at Wen Li first. He saw that Wen Li was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed. He then looked back at the place where he had been lying, wanting to see what had hit him. He looked at the crime scene carefully and locked onto the blue and white stripes that were exposed from the edge of the quilt. Under the blue and white striped fabric were round knees.
The murder weapon was found.
Lu Xixiao couldn't help laughing.
"Sleeping so restlessly." He muttered softly.
He gently adjusted the quilt twice to cover Wen Li's exposed knees, then turned to look at Lu Jingyuan.
The little guy slept very well, in the same sleeping position as at the beginning.
Lu Xixiao looked back at Wen Li.
It was a rare opportunity to be able to look at her so unscrupulously.
Lu Xixiao stared at the girl's face without blinking.
He was in no hurry to sleep.
There was no color on Wen Li's face, as pale as paper, and he looked so weak as he slept quietly.
This reminded Lu Xixiao of when he first met Wen Li. She looked sickly, and her body looked unhealthily thin under the loose clothes, giving people the feeling that she was fragile and could be broken with a little force. He still remembered how lightly he picked up the unconscious Wen Li from the ground.
Wen Li looked so sick at the time that he couldn't imagine that he would beat up several thugs in the next second.
He actually looked quite ugly at that time. He had been tortured by a bullet for several months and looked like a sick man. If it weren't for Wen Li, he might have died.
Lu Xixiao felt that she and Wen Li were destined to be together.
"Wen Li has someone she likes."
Lu Yu’s words rang out unexpectedly.
Lu Xixiao's gentle gaze dimmed in an instant.
Lu Yu shouldn't be so tasteless as to make up such nonsense.
After all, this also concerns Wen Li's reputation.
Therefore, what Lu Yu said is very likely to be true.
Lu Xixiao's heart felt like it was hit hard.
Although he didn't get the answer from Wen Li in person, Lu Xixiao still held out a glimmer of hope. But the trouble was that he didn't have the courage to verify it. Just thinking about Wen Li telling him in person that she had a man she liked was unbearable for Lu Xixiao.
He couldn't verify it either.
If he became an insider, he would have to distance himself from Wen Li. Of course, this wasn't because he was a gentleman with good manners and a positive outlook. He had already told Lu Yu that he could be the third person, so don't expect him to have any shame or morals. He was afraid that if he didn't consciously avoid suspicion after knowing that Wen Li had someone she liked, it would further arouse Wen Li's disgust and alienation...
The more Lu Xixiao thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.
He looked at the sleeping Wen Li and didn't want to imagine the scene of Wen Li being with another man... From childhood to adulthood, there was nothing he wanted that he couldn't get, so the terrible possessiveness grew wildly in his heart.
Lu Xixiao could only suppress it with all his might.
Because he knew clearly that he could not force Wen Li at all.
Lu Xixiao stared at Wen Li for a long time, with all kinds of emotions surging in his eyes, and finally calmed down under his restraint.
Lu Xixiao let out a breath and lay down.
He looked at Wen Li's white hands in front of him, and couldn't help but stretch out a finger, moving closer and closer. His fingertips touched the delicate back of Wen Li's hand, and he gently scratched the back of her hand in a childish manner.
What should he do to make Wen Li give up that guy and fall in love with him instead? But he didn't even know what type of person Wen Li liked...
So itchy.
What is this guy doing picking her hand?
Is there dirt on her hands?
It looked like this guy wasn't going to sleep any time soon.
And she couldn't sleep.
You don't want to lie there like this until dawn, do you?
Wen Li, who was pretending to be asleep, couldn't continue pretending any longer.
Lu Xixiao was lost in thought when Wen Li suddenly asked, "Is Wen Yan dead?"
It almost scared him.
Lu Xixiao immediately raised his head and saw Wen Li opened his eyes and woke up.
