Stay Safe

Chapter 16:

"Xiao Jin, come home with me."

These words came out naturally. Wooden pillow Creek couldn't tell what it felt in his heart. It was neither heavy nor relaxed, but another kind of mood in between, similar to resignation.

Xiao Jin didn't answer.

Her fingers were stiff, and in the palm of Wooden Pillow Creek, she was more hesitant than Wooden Pillow Creek.

She probably guessed something, and it's still in an unacceptable state. She couldn't imagine how Wooden Pillow Creek came here over the years, and she couldn't even imagine how she came here.

She didn't want to lie to Muzhenxi, but she had an intuition that if she didn't go to Muzhenxi now, she might have nothing.

This intuition was fulfilled not long after she moved into Muxianxi's house. Muxianxi planned to move out of Lincheng. If she hadn't pushed the bar now, in a few days, she would have nowhere to look for her.

Of course, this is a later story, and it is not listed here for the time being.

"Xiao Jin." Seeing that she didn't respond, Muzhenxi called again.

"Yeah." Xiao Jin agreed softly.

"You live with me, I will take care of you until you regain your memory." Wooden pillow brook said these words calmly.

At this moment, Xiao Jin raised his eyes and looked into the clear eyes of the wooden pillow creek.

She couldn't see through the emotions in the other's eyes, and she realized later that she could no longer find the familiar affection in it. Wooden Pillow Creek is... no longer in love with her?

Yes, it's been so long.

Xiao Jin took a light breath, suppressed the grief, held the opponent's hand, and nodded lightly: "Okay."

Wooden Pillow Creek clenched her icy fingertips, released them, turned to the convenience store next to them, and asked, "Are you cold?"

"A little bit." Xiao Jin told the truth. She didn't know what was going on. It was still midsummer, and it was 23 or 4 degrees in the middle of the night. She was still wearing trousers, but the goose bumps on her arms came out layer by layer.

"Go inside." Wooden pillow creek raised his chin at the entrance of the convenience store.

Xiao Jin didn't move.

Muzhenxi thought for a while, then took the first step, and Xiao Jin followed.

The two entered the convenience store one after the other. Wooden pillow stream let Xiao Jin sit in the seat by the window and asked the waiter at the counter, "Is there any hot milk?"

"have."

"Two cups, please, thank you."

Muzhenxi skillfully called out the payment QR code from the app in her hand. The waiter dropped a drop on her phone and put two glasses of milk in front of her. Wooden pillow stream turned around holding the milk, just to catch Xiao Jin's eyes that he didn't have time to take back.

"Drink some milk to warm your body." Wooden pillow stream stood beside her, put down a glass in front of her, and took a seat.

"Thank you." Xiao Jin held hot milk in both hands and looked at the table.

Muzhenxi thought for a while, but still said, "Don't be so polite."

Xiao Jin is a smart person, and Muzhenxi is not sure if she has been keenly aware of her attitude these days. There should be, the woman in front of her was pale, her lips that were not dark at first were bloodless, and the eyes that occasionally glanced at her were timid and cautious.

Xiao Jin raised his head and smiled gratefully at her.

The smile was also extremely light, and it dissipated as soon as it took shape, and lowered his head again.

Muzhenxi's heart seemed to be gently grasped by a hand, and then loosened, leaving a shallow streak, which was either painful or uncomfortable. She took a sip of milk and looked out of the window.

The two sat silently facing each other, drinking the milk one by one.

Mu Zhenxi noticed Xiao Jin's speed from the corner of his eye, put down the cup at the same time as her, and took the initiative to say, "Let's go back to the hotel now? Is your bag in the hotel?"

Xiao Jin nodded.

Muzhenxi took out his mobile phone from his pocket: "Do you remember which hotel it was?"

Xiao Jin reported his name.

Wooden Pillow Creek entered the name of the hotel in the map. It was a chain hotel, but according to the condition of being near Huang Jiao's house, there was only one answer left. Wooden Pillow Creek clicked on the navigation, and it showed that it would take fifteen minutes to drive, and I couldn't help but feel a little doubt in my heart.

"Why did you run so far in the middle of the night?" asked Wooden Sleeper Creek.

"I was in a panic while staying at the hotel. I originally wanted to go out and walk around to get acquainted with the environment. I accidentally walked farther and farther and got lost. I asked passers-by, but that person also pointed out the wrong thing." Xiao Jin looked naturally answer.

"Hmm." This confirms Muxianxi's previous speculation that Xiao Jin came out because he was afraid of being alone. Muxianxi's beautiful brows were lightly wrinkled, and self-blame filled his heart.

Xiao Jin stood up first, lowered his eyes, and said indifferently, "Let's go back to the hotel."

Mu Zhenxi tilted his head, his brows and eyes flashed a bit of confusion, and suddenly he felt a little strange in his heart, but it was impossible to say exactly what was wrong.

She habitually followed Xiao Jin and kept walking out of the convenience store before she regained her senses. Why did Xiao Jin lead the way? Xiao Jin didn't even know where her car was. She rushed forward a few steps, walked to the position next to the other party, and pointed in another direction: "The car is parked over there, and it takes about five minutes to walk."

"Um."

It was already three o'clock in the morning, and no matter how busy the city was, it was silent, and it was so empty that only the sound of each other's footsteps could be heard.

The dim street lights cast long shadows.

Xiao Jin was two steps behind, pulled a little distance to the side, gestured with his hand in the air, and slowly took the hand of the shadow of the wooden pillow, and the corner of his lips smiled.

"Xiao Jin." Wooden pillow stream suddenly turned around.

Xiao Jin was startled, hurriedly put his hands back in his pockets, and looked at her blankly: "Huh?"

She couldn't hide her panic and secret joy, and was hit by the wooden pillow stream. Muzhenxi was stunned, forgetting what she wanted to ask at the beginning. The woman under the street lamp had fair skin and bright eyes, and her long hair was soft and smudged by the warm light. Because of the smile, her eyes were more tender as water.

Muzhenxi took a second to look away from the other person's face, and said calmly: "Tomorrow we have to go to the supermarket to buy you some daily necessities." She looked at the other person's clothes again, with a thin neck and white, double His legs were long and straight, his throat moved slightly, and he said, "Go... buy some new clothes."

"Okay." Xiao Jin replied.

Wooden pillow stream calmly turned his face back, exhaled lightly, showing an annoyed look.

What she wanted to ask was obviously not this, what was it?

Xiao Jin waited for ten seconds, and Muxianxi didn't look back and didn't notice the ground, she started to move again.

Holding the "hand" all the way, Muzhenxi clearly felt Xiao Jin was in a happy mood when he got into the car, and the corners of his eyes and brows seemed to be blown away by the spring breeze.

"Fix your seat belt." Wooden Sleeper Creek said lightly.

"Got it." The co-pilot replied softly.

Wooden pillow creek tilts her head, Xiao Jin sits very obediently, her eyelashes are long and dense, drooping like a crow's feather. Muzhenxi's eyes moved to the earlobe hidden by her hair, which was soft and white, crystal clear and warm, and wanted to touch it.

Wooden Pillow Creek held the steering wheel in his handshake, looked ahead, turned on the left turn signal and drove onto the road. At the same time, he sighed in his heart, once again doubting whether his decision was a little impulsive.

Xiao Jin's heart beat a few beats faster, and with Muxianxi's obvious gaze, Xiao Jin certainly didn't notice it, but what does Muxianxi mean? Is she going to lose herself again?

Xiao Jin squeezed his two hands together, and went to the door of the hotel nervously.

Wooden Pillow Creek stood with her in the hotel lobby and asked her, "What floor?"

Xiao Jin took out a room card from his pocket and gave it to her.

Muzhenxi looked down at the room number on the room card, and mumbled casually: "Remember to bring the room card, why don't you remember to bring your wallet?"

Xiao Jin's face changed slightly.

Wooden pillow stream didn't pay attention, stepped forward and pressed the elevator.

At the door of the room, Xiao Jin took the initiative to say, "I'll go in to get something, just wait here."

Wooden Pillow Creek nodded slightly.

In less than a minute, Xiao Jin came out, the left hand was the satchel she carried when she and Muzhenxi met on a blind date, and the right hand was carrying a pocket of painkillers that Muzhenxi bought her this afternoon.

Mu Zhenxi's expression showed a trace of stunned: "Is it gone?"

Xiao Jin said, "No more."

Wooden pillow stream took two steps in, the room layout was untouched, it was clear at a glance that there was really nothing. She lives alone in this kind of place, and nobody buys anything for her. The heart was scratched lightly again, and Muzhenxi turned to stare at her, the emotions in his eyes were unspeakable.

Xiao Jin tilted his head and showed a faint smile: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Muzhenxi looked at her, her throat slid up and down, and finally she just let out a sigh and said, "It's nothing, let's go to the front desk to check out."

Xiao Jin curved his eyebrows: "Okay."

Mu Zhenxi took two steps and suddenly reached out a hand to her sideways, Xiao Jin was startled.

The expression on Muzhenxi's face was not at all uncomfortable, nor did she pretend to be indifferent. The lights in the corridor were reflected in her eyes, like clusters of stars, bright and gentle, and she said, "Hold me, don't get lost."

Xiao Jin raised his head to look at her, his eyes filled with heat.

But she didn't know how to get lost once.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

Just when Muzhenxi was about to withdraw her hand, Xiao Jin moved, and the strength of her pull was stronger than Muzhenxi's imagination, and it even caused her a little pain. Muzhenxi frowned slightly, and the strength of holding her hand immediately receded like a tide.

Xiao Jin's hands were still very cold, even though it was much warmer in the car and hotel than outside, it didn't get any better. Mu Zhenxi thought of her headache, and began to secretly plan in her mind whether to give her a full body check next time she went to the hospital for a re-examination.

absentmindedly went to the front desk to check out and took people home.

Muzhenxi went to the kitchen to make **** tea, crossed his arms, leaned on the marble countertop behind him, and stared at the white gas that boiled in the pot.

The past few hours have been like a dream.

She actually brought Xiao Jin back, and she really planned to take care of her until she recovered. If Yin Xiaoli knew about this, she would probably have been kicked by a donkey in her head. Muzhenxi raised his hand to flick his forehead, Xiao Jin's figure appeared at the door of the kitchen, holding the pillow on the sofa in his arms, poked his head in, and asked, "Muzhenxi, what are you doing?"

"I didn't do anything. I stayed outside all night. I'll cook some **** tea to warm you up, or you'll catch a cold tomorrow."

"Oh."

Seeing that she didn't move, Mu Zhenxi raised her eyebrows suspiciously: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Jin stood up straight, as if embarrassed, bit his lower lip lightly, and gathered the courage to look straight at her: "Where shall I... sleep tonight?"

The author has something to say: Xibao: what to sleep where, just sleep with me :)
