Uninvited

Chapter 11

A deeply affectionate person, feeling unfeeling, is so unfeeling.

Gu Zhi tied Xi Xi's hands and feet to the big bed in the attic with thin chains, tossed him several times every night, then carefully applied medicine to him, and then gave him nutritional injections.

It's been a month since Xixi's water and rice stopped. Her fair and plump face has lost a lot of weight.

Lie in bed every day, motionless.

The school counselor received a text message from Xixi's mobile phone, saying that Zhang Yang was in a bad mood after he passed away, and he wanted to take a period of leave.The counselor called back, but no one answered.

Zheng Hao and his parents called Xi Xi a lot, but they were all reminders to shut down the phone. Zheng Hao asked for leave, flew back to Beijing from other places, and looked for Xi Xi like crazy.The parents who were participating in foreign academic research turned down all work and hurried back.

Xi Xi stared blankly at the oil painting on the ceiling with her lifeless eyes, which was the story of Apollo and the goddess of laurel.

Legend has it that Apollo, the sun god who was shot with a golden arrow by Cupid, fell in love at first sight with Daphne, the daughter of the god of forests and swamps. Hate love.Later, in order to avoid the pursuit of Apollo, Daphne was turned into a laurel tree.

Gu Zhi, did you let me go if I also turned into a laurel tree?

In order not to arouse others' suspicion, Gu Zhi went to class during the day and went home after class.When Zheng Hao went to school to find Xi Xi, he heard that Xi Xi had a good relationship with Gu Zhi, so he also went to Gu Zhi to ask some places where Xi Xi might go. It was the first time that Gu Zhi saw Zheng who looked exactly like Xi Xi. Well, I was a little surprised, but I didn't show my feet.

In the evening, as a rule, Gu Li brought Xi Xi a glass of milk and fed it to his mouth. He thought Xi Xi would turn his head away as usual, but unexpectedly Xi Xi took a sip.

To Gu Zhi, this was a big surprise!

"Xi Xi, you..."

The look in Gu Zhi's eyes was almost overflowing.

"Tomorrow is my birthday." Xi Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and tremblingly took the milk from Gu Zhi, "Can you pick this thing off?" Xi Xi looked at the chain in his hand.

Gu Zhi looked into his eyes and smiled wryly, "Okay."

Gu Zhi picked up the chains and put them into the storage room next to him. Xi Xi quietly supported the bed, trying to stand up, but he didn't expect that he hadn't eaten for many days and had been inactive for a long time, and his legs were going to fall to the ground. , hurriedly trying to grab something, but swept off the milk cup, and then the cup shattered on the edge of the carpet.Xi Xi quickly hid a piece of debris under the carpet.

As soon as he heard the sound of the cup breaking, Gu Zhi was startled, and hurried over to see Xi Xi sitting on the ground with a helpless and bewildered expression on his face.

Seeing the broken glass beside him, Gu Zhi's heart tightened, and he ran over to check Xi Xi from head to toe to prevent him from doing anything that would hurt him again.

Seeing that Xi Xi was fine, Chief Gu sighed, put his forehead against him, and said, "Xi Xi, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I shouldn't say those things to anger you, your neighbor's daughter I just let someone scare her For a while, and then give their family a sum of money to let them move out, I'm sorry, I was so angry that day, I couldn't hold back, I'm sorry."

Xi Xi looked up at Gu Zhi, trying to see which sentence was true and which was false.

"And about Zhang Yang, I was taken advantage of, I'm sorry, I will make it up to them, trust me, okay?"

Xi Xi closed her eyes and nodded slightly.

"Then I'll come back early tomorrow to celebrate your birthday, okay?"

"Tomorrow, can I call my parents and my brother?" Xi Xi begged and looked at Gu Zhi.

"Okay, but, don't leave me, okay, stay by my side, as long as you agree, I'll let you go back to school." Gu Zhi gently hugged Xi Xi's shoulders, letting his head rest on the in his arms.As long as you are by my side, as long as you are by my side, you can do whatever you want.

"really?"

"Ah."

"I'll give you an answer tomorrow."

"why?"

Xi Xi didn't answer, just lowered her head and said that I was hungry.
