Don't chase me, it doesn't work

At that moment, the heartbeat suddenly missed a beat, and it was caught off guard, making people unable to react in time.

Yuan Churui didn't understand what kind of feeling it was and what it meant.She lowered her eyes and looked at the little friend in front of her. She was holding her arms tightly, and tears were falling down. She looked so pitiful as if she had been wronged by the heavens, but her eyes were fixed on her Not willing to move away for a minute and a second.

As if afraid she would run away.

Yuan Churui sighed in her heart, she had to admit one thing, no one could refuse Tao Youqing like this.She really didn't expect that one day she would compromise under the appearance of this narcissistic king, probably because she looks so pitiful like this.

She is not so cold-blooded and ruthless that she will ignore a child if she is afraid of becoming like this.

Perhaps it was because she was so beautiful at this moment that her heart skipped a beat.

Yuan Churui said softly: "If I don't leave, I will stay by your side."

Tao Youqing sniffed, another crystal tear fell down, her eyes became more and more red, and her appearance became more and more delicate and pitiful: "Don't leave me, Yuan Churui, I'm afraid"

Now when she is in a hurry, she will subconsciously call her by name, without even noticing.

Yuan Churui couldn't stand her pitiful yet extremely dependent appearance, raised her hand and hugged her into his arms, patted her on the back gently, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, how could I leave you?"

Tao Youqing buried her head in the hollow of her neck, whimpered twice, finally let go of her hand, changed her way and hugged her tightly, wishing to be connected with her.

Seeing her, Yuan Churui was really terrified, so she hurriedly called the property management to ask what was going on, and the other party replied that the circuit had suddenly broken down, and they were already stepping up repairs, asking for their understanding.

Yuan Churui looked at the person in her arms, patted her on the back lightly, and said to the phone: "Then trouble you to fix it as soon as possible, thanks for your hard work."

Tao Youqing was close to her, and she heard all the conversation. Knowing that the call would not come in for a while, she couldn't help hugging Yuan Churui even tighter, like a drowning person who suddenly grabbed a piece of life-saving driftwood and refused to let it go. open hands.

Yuan Churui comforted her softly for a while, then turned her head to look at the cold darkness around her, lowered her eyes and said, "Shall we go back?"

Tao Youqing's mind was in a daze, and there was a faint cry in her voice: "Where are you going?"

Yuan Churui stroked her hair lightly: "Go home, it's cold here."

Tao Youqing was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised her head to look at her, her brows relaxed: "I have spare lights at home."

Jiang Haiming and his wife not only prepared this room for her to rest, but also thoughtfully prepared a lot of spare lights at home that can be used without plugging in, so that she will not be afraid when there is a sudden power failure.

After Tao Youqing finished speaking, she frowned again in vain: "But I dare not go back by myself, you go back with me"

Yuan Churui gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said calmly: "I will accompany you, of course I will accompany you. If you are already like this, can I leave you here?"

Tao Youqing glanced at her mouth, instinctively stretched out her little finger, and said in a hoarse voice, "Then hook me up."

She is used to making verbal agreements to hook up with people. For her, this is a process in which she can deliver all her trust, with a childlike innocence.It's also a habit she and Tao Qing have always had - every time my uncle promises her something, he will hook her up to make her feel at ease

She glanced at Yuan Churui, then put her hand back silently. She forgot that Yuan Churui would not do such childish things with her. When they signed the love agreement, Yuan Churui clearly rejected her childish behavior with his eyes.

Suddenly, a thumb gently hooked her hand, and a softer voice fell beside her ear: "Pull the hook."

Tao Youqing couldn't help being taken aback for a moment.

Yuan Churui hooked her hand and asked softly, "Can you trust me now?"

To coax children, of course, use the children's method.

Tao Youqing finally smiled again, and nodded while wiping away her tears: "Yes, I believe it!"

"Didn't you say you believed me? Why are you still hugging me?" Yuan Churui said speechlessly.

Tao Youqing hugged her arm, her eyes were red, and said confidently: "I'm afraid of the dark, I feel safe only by holding you!"

Yuan Churui had no choice but to help find the spare lights. There was a whole box neatly arranged, which looked like a small mushroom, small and cute.

Tao Youqing hugged her and refused to let go, so she had no choice but to help her put these lamps in every place in her house. The warm and dim light from each room gradually connected into a sea of ​​lights, and it took less than a minute In just a few minutes, the darkness of the entire room was dispelled, and a light enough to make people feel reassured was brought in.

After Yuan Churui turned on the last light, she withdrew her hand and said, "Is it much better now?"

Tao Youqing loosened her hand holding her slightly, and felt much relieved: "It's much better."

Yuan Churui saw that the corners of her eyes were still moist, and wiped away the tears naturally and deftly, and said, "Why are you so afraid of the dark?"

Tao Youqing's fear of the dark is like something she experienced when she was a child, and there is still a shadow in her heart.

Tao Youqing glanced at her mouth, and said, "I was locked up in a dark room when I was a child, just those little bastards, who scolded me for fighting with me and locked me up for a whole night, then locked me out Here comes the shadow."

She still remembers how dark, how damp, and how bad the smell was in that small room, and how the group of boys laughed and left, not taking it seriously at all.

When she was young, she yelled every day in the cramped space, and she could only huddle in the corner with her schoolbag in her arms, crying until her voice became hoarse, and no one came out to save her. That kind of fear and helplessness was enough to make her feel sick. People suffocate.

Tao Qing stayed up all night and kept looking for her, until dawn to find her, and because of this, she was forced to fall under the shadow of being afraid of the dark.

Whenever night falls and there is no light around her, she will be very frightened, as if falling back to the day when she was locked in a small black room all night, surrounded by the cool darkness, which makes people feel frightened and creepy .

It was also after this incident that she became more determined to learn karate to deal with those little bastards.The first thing she did after finishing her studies was to beat them all up, then kicked them into the small dark room and closed the door behind her back, imitating their appearance, and went home as if nothing had happened , Let them cry behind.

Treat her body in the same way, and from now on, those little bastards will take a detour when they see her.

Yuan Churui fell silent after listening.

Tao Youqing's childhood was actually very sad. From being neglected by her mother at the beginning, she had no self-confidence, to being bullied and excluded by her peers, and even fought violently. This is a childhood nightmare for any child.

But fortunately, she came out of that nightmare. Although she was afraid of the dark, at least she is now full of confidence, outstanding and talented, and she can shine like a star wherever she goes-this is not An easy thing to do.

"Your uncle taught you very well." Yuan Churui said.

To be able to have Tao Youqing today, Tao Qing is indispensable. It is he who encouraged her, gave her confidence, accompanied her to grow up with the most gentle and sincere family affection, so that her childhood still had a beam of warm light shining, and let She knew that she too was a lovable little child.

"Of course." Tao Youqing smiled openly, "Uncle is the great hero in my life!"

She is unfortunate, but also lucky, and Tao Qing is her luck.

Unfortunately, her "luck" has been taken away by God

She gradually lost her smile, and sighed softly: "I hope he and that uncle will live happily in the next life."

Yuan Churui said softly: "Well, you will live happily too. Uncle Jiang and the others will definitely love you like your uncle."

She believed that Jiang Haiming and his wife would surround her gently like the lights in this room, giving her a sense of security.

Tao Youqing smiled softly when she heard the words: "Yes. I will definitely have a very good life, because they are here, and Meilin is here."

"You're still here."

Yuan Churui looked into her eyes, those watery and reddish peach blossom eyes were full of touching sincerity.

She said, "Yuan Churui, I'm very happy to be your friend."

Yuan Churui's tolerance for her, tolerance for her, and care for her are all in her eyes and in her heart.She likes her, and no one can replace her in her heart.

Yuan Churui is Yuan Churui, unique.

Yuan Churui looked at her, looked at her, quietly raised her hand—— pinched her face, and smiled slightly: "Call me sister."

You called her Sister Rui before, but now you call her by her full name, right?

Do children still have a sense of seniority?

Tao Youqing looked at her in astonishment, and protested: "I called you so many times outside just now and you didn't blame me!"

When she was anxious just now, she crazily called her full name, and she didn't count how many times she called. Not only did she not blame her at that time, she was also so gentle to her!Why did you change your face now!

Fairy Tao: Yuan Churui, how could you do this!

"That's a special situation." Yuan Churui said, "It's different now."

Tao Youqing was dissatisfied: "What's the difference? My eyes are still red, and I can even perform a live performance of a fairy crying for you!"

Yuan Churui saw that her spirit was getting stronger, and jokingly stretched out her hand to the spare light: "I don't want to see it, I'll turn off the light."

Tao Youqing immediately hugged her, pressed her on the sofa, put her arms around her waist, and said with a smile: "Don't do this, just talk if you have something to say, don't touch my source of life."

Yuan Churui watched her sticking to her body: "..."

Are you in the posture of having something to say?

Four or ten minutes later, the electricity finally came on, and Tao Youqing was completely at ease. She took a bath to calm down first, and then turned off the lights while eating fruit.When Yuan Churui left, she gave her three lamps to illuminate her.

Yuan Churui is not her, and she doesn't need to light up the whole room to move around during a power outage.

Tomorrow, she has no schedule, so she will go back to Jiang's house for a short stay. Seeing that it's getting late, she will go to bed - fairies don't stay up late, and they won't even die.

Before going to bed, she looked at the gentle light by the bed, and for some reason remembered Yuan Churui holding her in her arms in the dark, comforting her softly and giving her a sense of security.

At that time, Yuan Churui was as gentle as a gust of wind gently brushing over her face, calming the panic in her heart, bringing her a moment of tranquility, allowing her to breathe in the fear of darkness.

She shrank her body into the warm quilt, and the smile melted between her delicate eyebrows and eyes, spreading to the deepest part of her eyes.

Yuan Churui is so kind.

She likes Yuan Churui, very, very much.

After thinking about it, she simply picked up her phone and sent Yuan Churui a "good night", followed by a cute cat emoji.

After sending the message, she didn't put down her phone immediately, she opened a bunch of them every day, and Yuan Churui was mentioned in every sentence.

[Tao Youqing]: She is super super nice, I super super like her

[Tao Youqing]: Uncle, you must also bless her in heaven in everything!

[Tao Youqing]: Finally, good night Uncle, your niece is also having a good time today (except for the power outage)

After telling Tao Qing what was in her heart today, she still didn't put down her phone, and unconsciously opened Yuan Churui's WeChat with her fingers, as if she was waiting for something.

Two minutes later, a white chat box popped up from the bottom.

[Xiao Yuan Dong]: Good night

Tao Youqing's eyes instantly burst into a contented smile, she finally put down her phone and fell asleep happily.

It was already ten o'clock in the morning when Tao Youqing woke up the next day. She was used to going to bed early and getting up early, but she had never woken up so late.

She leaned against the head of the bed, suddenly felt weak in all limbs, dizzy, her throat was so dry that it was about to smoke, she raised her hand and touched her head - it was hot.

actually had a fever

She thought feebly, she had to go back to Jiang's house today, why did she have a fever, it would be too bad to go back sick.

She sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, trying to calm down, got up, picked up her mobile phone and walked out of the bedroom, took a glass of warm water to moisten her throat, and was going to explain the situation to Lin Wanqing, and then go back when she recovered from her illness.

As soon as she opened the address book with her fingertips, the doorbell rang, as if she was disturbed by the sound, her head began to fuss with dissatisfaction, and the pain made her frown, and she could only hold back the headache and go open the door.

As a result, when she opened the door, she saw Lin Wanqing standing outside, she didn't even have the energy to be surprised.

Lin Wanqing saw that something was wrong with her at a glance, and immediately reached out to feel the temperature of her forehead, supported her and said worriedly, "Why do you have a fever?"

She leaned against Lin Wanqing weakly, and said weakly: "I don't know, it's just like this when I wake up." Frowning, she muttered, "Headache."

Lin Wanqing rubbed her forehead distressedly: "Renren, Mom will take you to the hospital right away." Immediately, she called the driver and told the driver to prepare to go to the hospital, and went back to the house to help her find a long coat to wear, and hurriedly helped her get off the bed. building.

Tao Youqing was transferred from the bed at home to the bed in the hospital, with an IV in one hand, while sleeping in a drowsy state, half asleep and half awake, intermittent voices came into her ears, each voice was different, some men and some Girl, the only thing she could sense was the kindness these voices showed her.

Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice asking her in her ear: "Youqing, is there any other discomfort?"

"Tell mom."

mom

Her mind was in chaos, and she vaguely returned to the time when she was still in Tao's house, and the words that came out of her mouth were weak and confused: "Mom, do I have a mother too?"

Didn't her mother not want her?

Didn't her mother treat her like a stranger?

Does her mother have a mother too?

Another voice fell in her ears, and a big callused hand gently held her hand: "Yes, we Youqing have mother and father, of course, father is here, in Youqing side."

She didn't speak, she was too unfamiliar with the word father, and there was no annotation for this word in the Tao family's memory, and she couldn't imagine what her father looked like when her consciousness was in chaos.

She subconsciously clenched that hand and whispered, "Then don't go."

She said, "I'll see what you look like when I wake up"

She wanted to see what her father, who was locked in a small dark room and never came back to save her, looked like.

"Don't go." Jiang Haiming responded to her, "Father is here with you."

Tao Youqing didn't know how long she had been asleep, but when she woke up again, her spirit was much better. The first person she saw when she opened her eyes was Jiang Haiming.

Jiang Haiming was sitting by her bed, holding her hand, and gently patted the back of her hand, as if trying to lull her to sleep. Seeing that she woke up, he asked with concern, "Is there any other discomfort?"

Tao Youqing said honestly, "I have no strength, my head hurts."

Jiang Haiming reassured: "Okay, Dad understands, we'll be fine after taking the medicine for a few days after the injection, it's okay, be good."

Tao Youqing gently nodded her head twice.

Jiang Haiming patted the back of her hand: "Are you hungry? Your mother has gone to buy you porridge. We'll have something to eat when she comes back, okay?"

Tao Youqing nodded again.

Then Tao Youqing heard Jiang Haiming say: "That's right, Youqing doesn't want to see what Dad looks like, come on, let's see, Dad is sitting here, you can just look at it!"

A question mark slowly appeared on Tao Youqing's head.

Did I say it?

When did I say that?

How could I not know what Chairman Jiangda looks like? ? ?

Jiang Haiming smiled lovingly: "Youqing don't remember? When you fell asleep, you held my hand and told me not to go. When you wake up, you can see what I look like."

Tao Youqing suddenly felt embarrassed: "That's because I'm confused, how could I not know what you look like."

Jiang Haiming looked at her with a smile on his lips, but the words he said hit her heart directly: "Youqing, did you really want a father before?"

Tao Youqing was silent when she heard the words, she really wanted a father, especially when she saw other people's families were happy.During that time, she was extremely inferior. She didn't understand why her mother didn't like her, and she didn't understand why she didn't have a father—did my father not want me?Is it because I'm not likable?

Later she didn't think about it anymore, if she didn't have it, she didn't have it, let's forget it, anyway, she still has an uncle, who is her second father.

She opened her mouth and said, "I used to want it very much, but then I didn't want it anymore, because I knew I didn't have it."

Jiang Haiming stared at her, there were a few silver hairs as white as snow hidden in his hair, the years gathered in the corners of his eyes, he lowered his eyes slowly, and said softly and apologetically: "I'm sorry .”

"Dad failed to protect you."

Before the child in front of him came to this world, he determined to be the most reliable father in the world, to protect her from wind and rain, and let her grow up carefree, but fate played tricks on him like this, making him Her children are suffering outside, suffering pain that should not have been borne by her.

"I'm sorry," he said again.

Tao Youqing looked at him quietly, and after a long time said softly: "You are not wrong, it is not you who replaced me, don't blame yourself, you have done a good job."

Jiang Haiming and his wife wanted to give her the best environment and the best love, but they were all played tricks by fate. No wonder Jiang Haiming and his wife tried their best to be good parents.For example, here to accompany her personally, accompany her to give injections, wait for her to wake up, and not let her feel lonely.

She is lucky to have such parents.

Just as Tao Youqing was thinking, someone knocked on the door of the ward, and a middle-aged man in a suit walked in. Seeing that Tao Youqing had woken up, his eyes showed some relief, and he said hello to her: "Miss."

Tao Youqing knew him. He was Jiang Haiming's secretary and a veteran of the Aurora Hotel. His name was Cai Xin, and Jiang's children called him Uncle Cai.

Tao Youqing politely replied, "Uncle Cai."

Cai Xin walked towards Jiang Haiming with the documents, and said in a low voice, "Director Jiang, Miss is awake, you have to go back and deal with the documents."

Jiang Haiming was originally processing documents in the company. When Lin Wanqing said that Tao Youqing had a fever and fell ill, she immediately left her work and rushed to the hospital to see her. It was a mess, and I had to stay with my daughter for injections and wait for her to wake up.

Now that Tao Youqing is awake, he can finally deal with the documents, and Cai Xin can finally feel at ease.

Jiang Haiming was not very willing. He was afraid that Tao Youqing would be lonely if no one was with her, but Cai Xin was in a hurry, and just as Lin Wanqing had also returned, he said to Tao Youqing, "Qingqing, take a good rest. Dad will leave after finishing the paperwork." I'll be right back with you."

Then she raced away, Tao Youqing didn't even have time to say "be careful on the road".

Lin Wanqing went out to help her make it up, but after thinking about it, she picked up the phone so that Jiang Haiming didn't have to worry too much about himself, work was important, and he didn't have to run around to tire himself out.

As a result, Jiang Haiming still came at four o'clock in the afternoon, panting lightly, as if he had come running.

Tao Youqing didn't know why he was in such a hurry, so she said, "You don't need to rush here, you are tired from running around, I'm much better now, I can go home tonight."

Of course, it was to go back to her own place. She was sick and didn't want to go back to Jiang's house with a sickness, and it would be bad if she infected Jiang Qiuyang, a senior high school student.

"Then dad has to come and accompany you." Jiang Haiming said, "When a child is sick, he always wants his parents to be by his side."

"When you needed Dad before, Dad didn't come to you, but don't worry, from now on, as long as you need Dad, no matter how far away, Dad will come to you immediately."

He will shield her from the wind and rain, be her solid and reliable backing, and make her happy and worry-free in the days to come.He also wanted her to believe that they really wanted to protect her.

Tao Youqing looked at him, and seemed to see Tao Qing's shadow in a trance, and her heart was touched.

They love her equally, take care of her, and regard her as their own darling.He wants to be her uncle well, and he wants to be her father well, and treat her with the most sincere heart.

Tao Youqing's nose was inexplicably sour, and she clumsily called out, "Dad."

Jiang Haiming paused for a moment.

Tao Youqing said softly, "I've decided when to reveal my identity. It's at my birthday party. Do you think it's okay?"

Jiang Haiming looked at her slowly, his eyes turned red: "What did you call me just now?"

His eldest daughter finally called him daddy? !

Tao Youqing yelled at him again, which made his heart soften.

He wept with joy, and after wiping away his old tears, he held her hand in relief: "My parents are very happy that you can make your own decision. Then it's settled, and we will make it public at the birthday party."

He wants everyone to know how beautiful and how outstanding their Jiang family's little princess is!
