    Chapter 5 Struggle again

    Xi Nian had tried his best to avoid getting too involved with Lu Xingzhe in his previous life. He had so many things in the hands of that paparazzi that he had to be constrained by him all the time. This was undoubtedly a frustrating thing for Xi Nian.Having trouble sleeping and eating.

    He didn't like Lu Xingzhe, but he didn't hate him either.

    Before the sun rises, the street lights on this long street will always be on, and the warm yellow light shines on the ground, making the shadows of the trees grow long.Lu Xingzhe didn't have the strength to stand up again. He touched his leg bones, but it was difficult to distinguish the injury due to the dense pain, and even the nerves were gradually approaching numbness.

    He managed to take a breath, looked around, and quickly searched for the route to the nearby station in his mind. Who would have thought that a low and indifferent voice suddenly sounded above his head, unexpectedly interrupting his train of thought.

    "I'll take you to the hospital."

    Xi Nian was wearing a mask, revealing only a pair of eyes as quiet as a cold pool. Although his face could not be seen clearly, his body proportions were comparable to those of a male model, unlike ordinary passers-by. After speaking, he leaned over and stretched out his hand to Lu Xingzhe, but wasThe latter reacted greatly and turned sideways to avoid it.

    "Need not."

    Children who grew up in an orphanage had only endless fighting and plundering in their childhood. Lu Xingzhe was like a wild dog, despicable and selfish, suspicious and sensitive. The unwarranted kindness of others was like candy mixed with poison, and he could not avoid it..

    Facing this man who appeared out of nowhere, Lu Xingzhe's eyes were alert and guarded. He didn't understand Xi Nian's kindness. Regardless of the pain, he quickly stood up from the ground, carrying his camera bag and wanted to leave in a hurry, but he didn't take a step.The neck is just tight.

    With a faint smile on his lips, like a cat chasing a mouse, Xi Nian grabbed Lu Xingzhe's back collar and whispered in his ear: "Do you like being a cripple?"

    Lu Xingzhe had an intuition that the person coming was evil, so he was panicking and uneasy for no reason. His eyebrows were filled with a cruel look that shouldn't be seen at this age, and he said in a deep voice: "Let go!"

    Hearing this, Xi Nian raised his eyebrows and let go. There was only a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. Lu Xingzhe fell to the ground again. The injury happened to hit the ground. The pain made him hug his legs and curl up into a ball, gritting his teeth.His whole body was shaking, and he glared at the instigator fiercely.

    Xi Nian lowered his eyes and looked at Lu Xingzhe, feeling a sense of quietness and detachment from everything. After all, he was not a person who liked talking nonsense. He directly leaned over and hugged the person horizontally, and walked towards the car parked not far away.

    Lu Xingzhe was very light, Xi Nian prepared very hard, but in the end he didn't even use seven points.

    But he doesn't care.

    He had never hugged Lu Xingzhe in his previous life.

    Probably aware of the disparity in strength, Lu Xingzhe stopped struggling. He endured the pain and stared at Xi Nian with sinister eyes, as if trying to see the other person's face clearly through the mask. His voice became gloomy and hoarse due to being suppressed for too long: "I said it.Need not"

    Xi Nian held him in that position, opened the car door with his fingertips, and then threw Lu Xingzhe into the back seat: "Why, are you afraid that I will be a bad person and sell you out."

    There was a very light breath on his clothes, like white tea or cold rain, sober and cold, and it disappeared at the touch of a finger.

    Lu Xingzhe was stunned for a moment, and then he threw him in the back seat. Before he could recover, the car door slammed from the outside. He raised his eyes and saw the man go around to the other side and get into the driver's seat, then start the car, rightThere was a thick ring of gauze wrapped around the wrist, which was so white that it was dazzling.

    Lu Xingzhe had been a paparazzi for so many years, and it was a lie to say that he had no enemies. He always felt that Xi Nian's eyes were inexplicably familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before. He pressed the phone, but it was still in the power-off state, and he could only be irritated.give up.

    He took out his wallet from his pocket, stood up slightly and casually put a few large bills into the passenger seat. Because the wound was involved, his voice was heavy and hissing, "Put me down at the station ahead."

    Xi Nian looked at the road ahead, the light and shadow outside passing through his deep features, and said in a calm voice, "What next?"

    Lu Xingzhe said: "I will take the car by myself."

    Xi Nian asked back: "My car is not a car?"

    He was not a kind-hearted person. It was rare for him to show kindness once, but the other party didn't appreciate it, so Xi Nian didn't think much about it and rushed to reciprocate. As he drove towards the hospital, he said: "Either you jump off yourself, or you can't do it."Shut up."

    A normal person would have shut up now, but Lu Xingzhe was not afraid of death. He gave Xi Nian a cold look and opened the car door to get out. Unexpectedly, he didn't open it for a long time, only to find that someone had left the car door open.Locked.

    Lu Xingzhe punched the car window hard. The back of his hand was already injured from rubbing on the ground, and now it was even more bruised: "Who are you?"

    Xi Nian observed his situation in the rearview mirror, then looked away after a moment, and said, "Passerby."

    "A passer-by," he said.

    The hospital was right in front. There was a red cross mark on the tall white building. The lights were on 24 hours a day. Lu Xingzhe didn't know if he saw it, but he finally stopped fussing and huddled on the car seat, slowly calming down the pain.

    There were some scattered things piled up in the back seat of the car, including a sports coat, a medical record book, and a small plastic bag of medicine. Unfortunately, the light was dim and Lu Xingzhe could not see the names on the medical records clearly. His thoughts began to wander uncontrollably.He used the paparazzi's instinct to scribble and make random guesses about Xi Nian's identity.

    To attract clients to the hospital?

    Organ traffickers?

    I don't know how to describe it, but Lu Xingzhe now feels like he's on a pirate ship and still can't get off.

    Xi Nian drove the car into the hospital and into the parking lot. The incandescent lights above finally brightened Lu Xingzhe's dim vision. He moved and prepared to get out of the car, but found a mottled patch on the leather seat.The blood stain seemed to be from his own leg. He pursed his lips and wiped it randomly with his sleeve.

    Xi Nian had just been to this hospital in the afternoon and was quite familiar with the route. He parked the car, went around to the back, opened the door, and said to Lu Xingzhe, "Come down."

    The sound echoed in the empty parking lot.

    Lu Xingzhe probably should have said thank you at this time, but he paused and said nothing. He lowered the brim of his hat to cover his face tightly, moved his injured leg with difficulty to get out of the car, closed the door with his backhand, took out his wallet, and put the only things left in it.All the cash was stuffed into Xi Nian, and he said vaguely: "Travel fare."

    Counting the banknotes scattered on the passenger seat, the money he gave was at least more than two thousand. Xi Nian glanced at the red notes in his hand, then folded them slowly and put them in his jacket pocket, his voice was low, with a hint of a smile.It’s not a smile, it’s like praising: “How generous.”

    Why didn't he find Lu Xingzhe so interesting before?

    The man didn't show his face, but his eyes with hidden smiles were enough to make people blush and their hearts beat wildly.

    Lu Xingzhe, a paparazzi who took spying to the extreme, was inexplicably afraid to look at him at this moment. He just wanted to leave quickly. However, before he had taken two steps, he felt a tightness around his waist, and then he felt a familiar feeling of weightlessness in his body.The sensation came over and his pupils suddenly shrank.

    Xi Nian avoided his wounds and picked up Lu Xingzhe: "I will help him until the end."

    Through the black mask, his expression was difficult to capture. Lu Xingzhe moved his gaze upwards and could only see Xi Nian's sexy and slightly convex Adam's apple. Through the thin layer of clothing, it was not difficult to feel the man's strong body.

    Lu Xingzhe had never been hugged by anyone in his whole life. He only felt that wherever he came into contact with Xi Nian, it was so hot that it made people panic. His tone was a little sarcastic unconsciously: "You don't even know whether I am a good person or a bad person.Do you dare to help me?"

    He tightened his fingertips as he spoke, subconsciously wanting to hold onto Xi Nian's clothes because of the weightlessness, but he quickly retracted when he caught a glimpse of the mottled scratches and dust on his hands.

    Xi Nian hugged him and walked toward the elevator without saying anything. It was late at night, and the hospital corridor was empty and silent. There were only a few doctors on duty. Xi Nian checked in the emergency room for Lu Xingzhe, went through the procedures and took the X-ray, and then watched from the sidelines.Waiting for the doctor to treat his wound.

    The doctor on duty was a bit old. He rolled up Lu Xingzhe's trouser legs. When he saw the blurry wound, he adjusted his glasses with a headache and said in an old voice: "I'll wash your wound later and endure the pain."

    Lu Xingzhe sat on the bed with his eyes lowered and said nothing. He looked like a fair-skinned half-year-old boy, but his appearance was a bit sinister. He remained silent when changing the dressing. He just stared at the cotton on the doctor's tweezers, occasionally raising his eyes.His eyes fell on Xi Nian who was waiting outside the door.

    The man's back was turned to him, his head lowered and he was looking at his mobile phone. He didn't know what content he saw, and he pressed the screen to turn it off.

    Xi Nian noticed the sight behind him, turned around and saw Lu Xingzhe staring at him, raising his eyebrows slightly, put his phone in his pocket and walked over: "What are you looking at?"

    The doctor has finished disinfecting and is changing equipment not far away.

    Lu Xingzhe's wounds were taken care of, and he was finally a little less embarrassed than before. He faced Xi Nian's gaze with an expressionless face, and did not dodge. After a moment, he smiled frivolously: "I see you have a good figure..."

    Still the same gangster as in his last life.

    Xi Nian used to be a stupid young man, and would look away uncomfortably if he flirted with her for a few words, but obviously not anymore. They are all old-timers, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

    "You're not bad either."

    Xi Nian commented.He moved his eyes down from Lu Xingzhe's collarbone, remembering that the other party used to struggle with him desperately on the bed, and the look on his brows and eyes when he was panting passionately was a bit seductive.

    Lu Xingzhe paused because of his words, as if he didn't expect Xi Nian to answer like this. Then he smiled slowly, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked in an ambiguous and low voice: "How do you know?"

    Xi Nian folded his arms and looked at him calmly, saying the wildest words in the most serious tone: "You forgot, I hugged you just now..."

    The final sounds of the last few words gradually disappeared from the lips, as if they were talking about a shameful affair, and the atmosphere was cast with a layer of charm for no reason.

    Lu Xingzhe: "..."

    Oh shit.

    Seeing that Xi Nian was taciturn along the way, he thought he was just a big iceberg, but after a while he turned out to be a sullen coward. Lu Xingzhe was about to say something, but saw the doctor coming over, so he had to shut up.

    Xi Nian dusted off the non-existent dust on his body, and then found a seat to sit aside. The phone in his pocket kept vibrating, with message pop-up sounds and phone calls from his manager.The quiet clinic seemed very abrupt.

    Lu Xingzhe glanced at him: "Someone called you?"

    Xi Nian took out his mobile phone and pressed the mute button: "Guess."

    Lu Xingzhe's cell phone has no battery. If he logs on to Weibo now, he will find that several black posts about Xi Nian were quietly posted by someone, and as the number of readers increases, they are gradually becoming the most popular.
