Cannon Fodder Through Books

Chapter 59 Stress Response (addition~)
His nasal voice was slightly stagnant, and his eyelashes trembled slightly.

Then he grabbed the fruit knife, picked up the apple from the side, and began to peel it.

"Sister-in-law Qiu said you were here, so I'll come over to visit."

Xi Xiao's voice was as crisp as a jujube, full of vitality, and she didn't feel hurt at all.

But he just lowered his head and concentrated on peeling. Soon, a continuous apple peel took shape.

She approached, pulled the chair and sat down: "Wow, your peeling skills are good, can you teach me?"

The hostility in her eyes finally dissipated, Nangong Yi raised her eyes, and saw that her head was covered with a thick layer of gauze, her complexion was not particularly healthy, but a nest of little stars were lit in her thick black eyes.

Very bright and pure to the extreme.

——She really wants to learn to peel apples.

Seeing her slapping her face as big as a palm on the palm of her hand, she propped her head up.

The face was clean and delicate, and occasionally a few strands of hair were caught between her fingers, but she didn't care, but her cheeks swelled slightly, and she blew it as if.

His heartbeat was inexplicably disturbed.

"Oh, it's broken!" she cried with some regret.

It was clearly the face of a girl from Zhang Jiangnan, but her tone seemed to hide a little beast, and she jumped up and down happily: "It's okay, it's okay, you can continue to open another one."

"Sister Xi, how is your head?" He put down the fruit knife and apple, straightened the corners of his mouth, and the corners of his eyes were red and foggy, like a drizzle in March.

"I'm fine." She felt a little sorry: "Really, it's just that the cloth wrapped around my head is a bit too much, it just looks scary."

"Don't lie to me." Nangong Yi suddenly bit her lip again, a little shy: "After all, we will be a family from now on."

Xi Xiao clapped her hands: "Yes, you will really be my younger brother from now on. Brother Nayi, do you want to go watch TV with me? I will be bored there by myself."

Nangong Yi's cheeks were unnaturally congested with blood, and at the same time, she picked up a bit of the bed sheet, struggling to bear it.

She is still bored? !
I really don't know who the person who laughed so hard just now almost lifted the ceiling!

Despite such resistance, half an hour later, he was still taken to her ward.

Before he could go to bed, Xi Xiao squatted down and knocked on the ligament under his knee.

Unprepared, his reflex arc reacted and one leg bounced.

His face was a little black and blue: "Sister Xi"

"Hahahaha, I'll give it a try. It looks like your leg is really getting better." Xi Xiao knew she was wrong, so she wrapped her arms around his waist and picked him up unexpectedly.

Nangong Yi's face turned darker.

If he hadn't grown to adulthood in previous lives, maybe he wouldn't feel so ashamed.

Xi Xiao then put him on the bed next door: "You are too light, eat more meat."

He closed his eyes, his face full of storms.

You must know that although this body is pretended to be weak, it is not in a sub-healthy state.

It is obvious that this woman has too much strength!
The funny variety show on the TV was still running, and the host in it seemed to die if he didn't speak for a moment.

He took a deep breath, pulled the curtain, took a medical cotton swab from the bedside, tore off the cotton wool on it, and prepared to stuff it into his ear.

"brush--"

The curtain was suddenly pulled open.

A pair of white feet appeared in the air, stepped on the side of his bed, shook slightly, but quickly got into his quilt the next moment.

A cold touch came from his calf, slightly itchy.

"Sister Xi"

Before he finished speaking, he was pulled up and sat up, with an arm resting on the back of his neck.

"Come watch it with me, don't go to bed so early."

Xi Xiao's ending sound was crisp, imploring, and messed up his soft hair.

Nangong Yi's eyes were a little dark, and her Adam's apple moved slightly, just about to refuse.

She pushed her head down directly and leaned against her shoulder.

The gauze on the girl's head smelled like medical iodine, a little smoked.

But there was also a very faint scent of gardenia soap, which penetrated from her skin into the tip of his nose.

Nangong Yiding was there, pressing down on the quilt on her body, the corners of her mouth were tightly closed, with a blunt curve, her lips were pale.

He almost wanted to pull it up and cover the woman's nasal cavity.

——This is one of his instinctive defenses, a stress response to long-term depression.

His depression has never been better, and it will only get worse.

Originally, in the previous two lives, it was fine to die without joy.

It happened that there was a third life again, which led to his morbid pleasure of revenge.

Xi Xiao tilted her head slightly, she could see clearly, she didn't notice any strangeness in him at all, she just trembled violently because of the outburst of laughter, and the hand around his neck became more and more vigorous.

He moved closer passively, almost hitting her jaw with the top of his head.

This approaching distance is absolutely unprecedented in his life.

In the previous three lives, everyone in the family avoided him, except for the disgusting Zhao Quan.

After a certain joke ended, Xi Xiao finally realized that something was wrong with the people around her, but she didn't let go.

It is normal for a person suffering from mild depression to have this awkward reaction at first.

Originally, she specially pulled him over tonight, just to make him feel more warm.

Although this baby is already 14 years old, she looks sick and weak, and is not as big as her 12-year-old sister in this world, so she naturally greets him as her own sister.

I checked the time on my phone, it was already 10:30.

"Right, will your brother come back to visit you in the next few days? For example, accompany you to do leg rehabilitation training or something."

Xi Xiao pressed the off button of the remote control in her hand and rubbed her eyes.

"Brother didn't say anything, does elder sister Xi want to find him for something?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his pupils shrank slightly.

　There seems to be something wrong with my writer's background. I don't know why I can't see the rewards suddenly, but I can still see the increase in the number of gifts on the reading page.

　　I really appreciate that you like my characters, and with your rewards and gifts, I will be more motivated!
