Chapter 111 He Cares About You
"Cough cough, I'm fine. Cough cough"
His fingertips were a little rough from years of training, and at this moment he wrapped the slender wrist with the lightest force he had ever used in his life, as if he was holding some rare treasure and was afraid of crushing it.
When the coughing subsided, he didn't put down his hand and asked slowly: "How have you been doing recently?"
Qiao Suisui was startled and said, "If I say it's not good, it would be a bit hypocritical, because I am well taken care of by everyone."
Anubis did not miss the flash of depression on her face. He took the initiative to ignore the mention of "everyone" in her mouth, paused for two seconds, and said: "Are you happy?"
Qiao Susu's expression was a little dull. This was the first time someone asked her if she was happy or not since she came here.
Her throat tightened a little, and she subconsciously avoided the question, as if if she answered Bi's question, she would not be able to help but expose her grievances in front of him.
She forced a smile and changed the subject: "It was inconvenient with them just now, so I didn't ask, is the person who hurt you someone I know?"
When she asked this, she already had the answer in her mind.
Anubis was silent for a few seconds, emotions surging in his eyes.
"Yes."
"Is that person Munakata?"
She was afraid that Anubis didn't know his name, so she took out his photo and showed it to him directly.
Anubis nodded stiffly. He concealed the fact that Zong Fang hurt him, not to cover up for him, but because he didn't know how to face Qiao Sui Sui.
Although the incident happened suddenly and he was a little confused due to the serious injury, Anubis remembered every word of Zongfang, so he was able to infer from the meaning of the words why this man was looking for trouble with him and even wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.
Anubis, who realized this, did not dare to look into Qiao Suisui's eyes. At this moment, he was wavering in his heart: Does Qiao really like him? If not, why did Zongfang want to kill him? If so, how should he face this feeling? Obviously, they are both males.
"Joe, you are very good. I mean, I won't reject you. It's just that I don't know if I am good enough. But I will give you a serious explanation. Maybe it may take some time."
What Anubis said was confusing and Qiao Susu was also bewildered.
She tilted her head and asked doubtfully, "I should be the one giving you an explanation."
Anubis was startled, and his heart sank when he heard her next words.
"Bi, I'm sorry. This is all because of me. There were some issues between him and I that we didn't handle properly. Although he is paranoid, he treats me very well. So even if everyone thinks he is an unscrupulous person, I don't want to blame him with others. I know he did something very excessive to you, so let me make it up to you. No matter what it is, I will do everything I can to make it up to you."
After saying that, there was no response from Bi for a long time. Qiao Suisui looked up and saw him looking at her quietly. His eyes seemed to have become particularly dark, so dark that they lost all reflection.
"Compare?"
Qiao Susu looked at him in confusion, but saw Anubis lower his head and chuckle slowly. That laugh was bigger than his previous laughs, but he didn't look happy at all. The emotion was too complicated for Qiao Susu to understand.
"I don't want any compensation from you," he said.
Qiao Suisui's heart was suddenly pinched, thinking that he would not forgive her, but she heard him say: "I have gained a lot from you."
Those were ordinary yet precious memories that he had never had before. They were the days he had always longed for, and they were the ones he was willing to trade for anything.
"And that man didn't kill me in the end. Look at this." Anubis stretched out his arm and showed her the black blood line. "He gave me his blood to drink. I guess it's because his blood didn't cause any rejection reaction in my body, which suppressed my violent factor."
Qiao Susu was surprised when she heard this.
"Qiao, he helped me." Anubis looked at her, the seriousness in his eyes made him look more stable than his age. "He misunderstood, and he cares about you very much." Qiao Susu was stunned and took a long time to digest the information in his words. After a while, she realized and said, "You mean he thinks I like you?"
Anubis looked at her silently, and for a moment, he almost asked: Is what he thought right?
However, he simply turned his eyes away indifferently, suppressing the impulse in his heart. The impulse was like a frantic sparrow, flying around in his body, trying to break out.
Qiao Suisui didn't notice his dejected look, and frowned as she thought, "But that's not right. If it was just this level, he wouldn't have behaved so abnormally."
In her eyes, Zongfang was a proud man. Because of his strong ability, he would never do anything to harm others secretly. Usually, he would deal with anyone who made him unhappy on the spot. He would never be as capricious as he was this time, killing people one moment and helping others the next.
Qiao Sui Sui's thoughts began to trace back and found that everything started from the night she attended the banquet, when he left without saying goodbye. Although she asked Zong Fang why, he did not explain what happened.
"Banquet. Lan Ze?"
Anubis saw her mumbling something to herself, and then suddenly a light flashed in her eyes as if she had thought of something.
"Thank you for telling me this, Bi." Qiao Suisui looked at him seriously, "No matter what, I will definitely give you an explanation."
Qiao Suisui walked out of the ward with Bi's words still echoing in her mind. She slowly stopped, turned on the light brain, and skillfully found Zong Fang's ID. She stared at it for a while, and then clicked exit. She took a deep breath, her fingertips trembling a little, and opened the dialog box with him again, and saw that the message stopped at three words -
【I'm waiting for you】
This was sent the last time he came to pick her up from school.
Qiao Suisui clicked on his ID, and her finger hesitated on the key she had dialed. It was only two seconds, but it felt very long. Suddenly, an audio message popped up on the computer screen.
乔穗穗愣了愣,最终还是点了接通。好听的声音响起,只是语调一如既往欠揍。
"Excuse me, I need to speak to Dr. Qiao."
Qiao Suisui: “.”
"Doctor Qiao, are you there? Can you help me take a look?"
"What's your serious illness?"
"I am hurt by your indifference."
Qiao Suisui: “.”
Five minutes ago, Carl finished his mission and couldn't wait to turn on his computer.
There was no missed call as expected. OK, it's okay. She doesn't like to call. It doesn't matter. OK, let him check the message.
Karl slid his hand downwards, the light brain refreshed, and the unread messages were pulled down.
0.
At this time, a colleague from the Federation happened to pat Carl on the shoulder to say hello, but he did not respond, and even looked a little stern from behind.
The colleague was puzzled and wanted to call him, but he heard Karl holding the light computer with his eyes closed and saying, "This is not a light computer, this is not a light computer, this is fried pork intestines, this is fried pork intestines. I am dreaming, I am dreaming."
A colleague looked at the computer in his hand and said, "This is a computer, Carl. Are you hungry?"
