The taxi stopped Infront of a big hospital
EVERGREEN MEDICAL CENTER.
They both stepped into the lobby and went to the counter where females dressed in green nurse uniforms were.
"Excuse me, I'm Mrs yin 's guardian,I'm here to visit her" yinrou told one of the nurses there.
"Ms. Yinrou,I recognize you, you can go" the nurse spoke warmly and kindly. They both took the elevator to the third floor where her mother's ward is. Yinrou pushed open the door of the the third ward on the third floor, there laid an unconscious middle aged woman.
Yinrou smiled bitterly and sat beside the bed talking to her unconscious mom as if she can hear everything she's saying "mom, how have you been? I brought my friend, she's very kind and will take care of me in the future!" Xue xi watched silently standing at the door .
"Your mom has kidney tumor!" Her cool voice echoed in the ward . Yinrou turned mechanically to face her with widened eyes "H-How did you know?"
"I know a bit about medicine!"
"Woah! That's so cool!" Yinrou said with her eyes shining in admiration towards xue xi.
"Actually I can cure your mom, both of her kidneys are affected by the tumor and the tumor is of a large size, it's very big, she needs nephrectomy and transplant, if you believe in me, I can do the surgery on her " yinrou fell into a daze "how did you know all this things? I didn't tell you about her condition before, did I?"
"No!"
"Xue xi,if you can cure my mom, I will be forever grateful for that!...."
"When is the surgery commencing?"
"Two days to today!"
"I will come by then!...." Her phone vibrated,it was a message from xukai, she patted yinrou 's shoulder"see you tomorrow at school!" And exited the ward.
...
Xukai leaned on the black car waiting patiently for xue xi, as soon as he sighed her tall silhouette,he immediately straighten up and open the car door for her.
Xue xi leaned into the black seat letting sleep take over her.
...
Mo Ting 's heart swelled up in excitement when he heard the car entered the penthouse, the thought of having xue xi around made him so excited, he made his way to the living room and sat down waiting for her to enter impatiently.
The mechanical voice announced their arrival
DOOR UNLOCKED SUCCESSFULLY!
The lemon mixed with milk scent hit his nose , which immediately calmed his tensed soul " so soothing!"
The scent got a little stronger, he realized that she is right Infront of him.
Xue xi 's hands made their way to the back of his head slowly untying the lacy blindfold, the blindfold fell alongside with two patches of dried herbs, revealing two beautiful closed eyes, his full lashes casting a shadow under his eyes, high bridge nose,Sharp jawline, cheekbone, and thin pink lips. He opened his eyes meeting xue xi's scarred face Infront, seeing him open his eyes, xue xi was caught off guard, she stood straight still staring at him.
"Can you see me ?"
"Yh but it's get blur some secs and get clear again, it's fluctuating" he said his ear slightly red remembering how close she was earlier.
"We will apply the herbs one more time and you can finally see" xue xi said moving towards the kitchen.
Xukai came out at the same time holding a white porcelain bowl with some green marshed herbs inside, he bumped into her almost falling but got caught by xue xi.
"Be careful!"
Her cold voice brought him out of his dazeness, he quickly regain his position and bowed slightly " yes..!"
They both went back to the living room, xue xi took the bowl from xukai and applied the herbs on his eyes again before tying it with the lacy blindfold.
Her cool fingers sent a tingling sensation into his spines.
"Your scarred face!...they are beautiful!" His low magnetic voice made xue xi stopped in her movement.
"You think so?" Her breathe hit him in his temple as she spoke.
"They will be gone in a few days! " She said smirking as she stood up and stretch her sore back.
"I won't come tomorrow since today is the final treatment! Xukai can help you remove the blindfold!" She said picking her back pack from the couch preparing to leave, she suddenly felt a weight on her back.
"Come tomorrow,I want you to be the first person I will be seeing after 5 years of being in the dark!" His warm breathe lingering on her swan neck. His warm body pressed against her back, her pupil darted in shock. This is the first time she would ever be so close to the opposite gender that is not her family.
"O-Ok, can you get of me?" She said in a low voice that appears seductive.
Xue xi was finally able to calm down after getting into a taxi without waiting for xukai to take her home.
"What is wrong with me?"
"What is this feeling I'm getting?"
....
Han yufan but his lower lip as he stared at the message he sent it to xue xi. His face twisting in anger.
"Did she just left me on read? She have some nerves!" He slammed the desk hard making some contents on it collapse .
He sent her another message;
How dare you leave meon read! I will never talk to you again if you don't reply to my message!
He smirked "this should do the trick!" Putting his phone down and faced his homework.
...
Xue xi flop on her bed, feeling lazy and a bit tired, as her mind wandered to when he hugged her, her white cheek turned slightly red, her phone vibrated in her pocket.
It was a WeChat message from Han yufan, she sat up"let's see what this fool is up to!" She clicked on the message and laughed after seeing the contents .
"When will he ever grow up? Does he thinks I'm the same xue xi of last week?" She exited the app and put her phone down , she got out of her uniform and freshen up changing into comfortable clothes. Her black smooth waist length hair tied up into a messy bun.
Her phone screen lit up, she picked it up and saw a message from an unknown number.
Xue xi, hi
It's me, yinrou
Thank you for your help earlier, I really appreciate I will treat you to lunch tomorrow, save my contacts,btw.
She smiled when she saw the word "lunch"
She quickly replied ; "ok "
Her phone vibrated just as she was about to exit yinrou 's message, another message from an unknown number.
Hey!
It's me , Huo long
Save my contacts with a cute nickname.
She smiled as she replied her; "ok, where did you got my number from?"
The message was read immediately and then a reply followed.
From the class group, I want us to be friends, you were so cool earlier! I like cool kids!
The message went on and on with xue xi just replying with either "oh" or "ok"
Xixi, have you seen this?
Following was a link.
Xue xi clicked on the link, it was a video of Jiang wan dressed in black surrounded by guards and reporters, she faced the camera with puffy eyes "I will avenge who ever did this to my best friend! I swear" she said with her voice cracking and then burst into tears before being accompanied by the guards . Xue xi bursted into laughter "this bitch is sure an actor! I wondered who discouraged her from going to the entertainment industry, oh ,by the way, time to contact third brother" she said and sat Infront of the computer, her slender fingers flying over the keys.
After a few mins of typing, her phone screen lit up.
She smiled in satisfaction as she stared at the credit alert on her phone.
"Hacking third brother's phone is still easy as ever " she said and laid on the bed bearing to nap.
