The first thing to wake up is the toes.

When the unbearable itch covered her toes, Peggy finally opened her eyes uncomfortably.

A log fire was burning in the fireplace in the log cabin, the pine wood was crackling, and there was some warmth in the air.

Paige moved her body, intending to sit up.A sharp pain came from her calf, and Peggy couldn't help but wailed, and fell back on the not-so-soft sofa.

correct!

Wolf.

And Jonathan!

Enduring the pain, Peggy stood up again and began to look around.

The furnishings in the house looked familiar, and Peggy thought for a while before recalling that this was the cabin where "Clark" and Jonathan lived.

I thought seeing "Clark" before passing out was a hallucination.Now it seems that it is not an illusion, but something that actually happened.

Peggy's body was covered with a thin quilt, which didn't seem to have much effect on keeping her warm.Peggy gently lifted the quilt and tried to move her painful right leg, but as soon as she exerted a little force, she was too painful to move any more.

"woke up?"

"Clark" came from behind, and even though the timbre was identical, Paige could easily sense from his nonchalant tone that he was not at all like her Clark.

In the current situation, Peggy felt that she should thank the other party politely, but the injury to her right leg made her unable to move.Peggy tried several times, but in the end she couldn't turn around successfully, so she simply turned her back to "Clark" in a very impolite posture and said, "Well, I'm awake. Thank you."

"thanks?"

The other party's tone was a bit playful, as if they didn't understand where Peggy's thank you came from.

This was not a good sign, and it meant that the guy was likely to do something next that would wipe out Paige's gratitude.

Sure enough, "Clark" paced and walked slowly in front of Peggy.With a cold face, he looked down at Peggy.

Peggy raised her hand subconsciously to cover her collar. Although the probability of being exposed in winter was extremely low, the way the other party looked down on her made Peggy couldn't help but worry about whether her V-neck sweater could cover her career line.

Peggy's action provoked a chuckle from "Clark".Then, Peggy could feel the other person's gaze turn around her face, then follow her neck, chest, abdomen... all the way to her injured leg.

It stands to reason that even if you don't send someone to a doctor right now, you should get some medical supplies to treat the wound.But "Clark" just looked at Peggy's leg coldly, without any intention of treating her wound.

Peggy took a rough look at her wound. Fortunately, the wild wolf's bite did not hurt the main blood vessel. The blood had stopped at some point, leaving only a wound, which looked like the tooth was bitten into the flesh, and the wound was torn apart. caused by pulling.

Peggy couldn't help showing her teeth, this kind of injury hurts even thinking about it, let alone it happened to Peggy.

"Clark" looked at Peggy coldly, without any intention of stepping forward to help: "You have been wandering around my house for almost half a month."

Peggy paused: "Are you going to have a good talk with me?"

"I'm going to call the police."

tell you...

Peggy resisted the urge to swear, and showed the other party a smile of "If you don't speak well, I will strangle you to death": "There is no need to send pennants or anything. Besides, even if you really want to thank me, you won't Time to call the police. They don't care about it."

"Who said I should thank you?"

#Of course I know you don't want to thank me!Didn't I remind you that I am kind to you!

Peggy still kept smiling, thinking bitterly.

"Even in Wyoming, Russia, kidnapping a minor is a felony."

#I tie you...

"I'll tie you...you big-headed ghost!" Peggy couldn't hold back this time, and yelled at "Clark".She originally wanted to curse, "Tie your mother [beep--]", but the face of "Clark" turned the swear words that came out of her mouth.

Because of this corner, Peggy's reply revealed a little guilt.

"Clark" stared at Peggy's face carefully for a long time: "Don't be patient before."

#Knock you [beep——]!I have always been very patient!

Peggy reiterated with a cold face: "I didn't kidnap Jonathan."

"That's not what Jonathan said."

Peggy froze for a moment, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the bedroom. It stands to reason that Jonathan should be placed in the bedroom to rest at this moment, or be locked in the bedroom to reflect.

Sure enough, as soon as Peggy glanced over, she saw Jonathan, who was pulling on the door frame and sticking out half of his head.

Xiao BuDian looked at Peggy with a sad face, and whispered with her lips: "Auntie, help me."

Peggy didn't see what the little one called her, but Peggy could clearly see the word for help.She couldn't help raising her eyebrows, thinking, what a trap!

"Clark" turned his head as if feeling something.Jonathan caught the sight of "Clark" and quickly changed his face, showing a timid look.

"Clark" said distressedly: "Go back to bed and lie down, Dad is here, no one can hurt you."

Peggy looked at Jonathan like a little puppy who was taken away by the villains and brought back to the den by the mother dog, she nodded tremblingly, her eyes were full of attachment to "Clark".

#Ouch hello!The talent for acting is as good as my aunt!

At that moment, Peggy inexplicably remembered the stainless steel pot that Natasha threw away when she was cleaning up Portman when she was young.

Come out and mix, after all, you have to pay back.

Paige sighed heavily.

"I did not kidnap Jonathan." Peggy said in a calm tone.Since the little one asked her to help, she naturally couldn't raise the little one's doubts about going out to cut trees, so she found a lame but thoughtful way of saying: "I just want to spend more time with Jonathan. After all, It's his aunt, it's a family."

"Clark" marvels at Paige's growing shamelessness over the years.Judging from her tone, it seems that his arrangement as a cousin is not appropriate.To change a few words, these words are exactly the same as the ex-wife who came back to find her baby in the TV series on Wednesday.

"I don't remember having a family like you."

Peggy licked her chapped lips: "Clark, that happened so many years ago. We can't always live in the past. We have to look forward."

"There's nothing to see ahead!"

#Hey!Do you want to be a slut!

"Clark, I'm in trouble." Peggy thought for a while, changed her face, and put on the usual trick she used to deal with Clark, "I need you."

"Sorry, I won't help you."

"I haven't said anything yet."

"No matter what it is," Clark glanced at Peggy coldly, "I won't help you."

Paige closed her mouth and looked at "Clark" eagerly.

"Now." "Clark" crossed his waist, looking like he was interrogating a prisoner, "tell me about your kidnapping of Jonathan."

Paige: ...

"Clark" didn't ignore the "nothing to say" expression on Peggy's face: "If you don't want to say it, I can also call Mr. Sheriff. Before that, I have to lock you in the woodshed. "

Peggy didn't answer, but just looked down at the wound on her leg.

She thinks the Clark of this world is an asshole!Not to mention her, even if it was someone else who was injured in this deep mountain forest, he should also ask the other party to contact the doctor to treat the wound!What the hell is it that locks people in a firewood hut?Are you going to collect someone's body the next morning? !

"Then you at least...give me some gauze alcohol or something, let me treat the wound first?"

"Clark" raised his eyebrows: "I don't have those things at home."

Peggy knew that she couldn't impress "Clark" at all, so she simply turned cold: "Are you making it clear that you want me to die?"

"Clark" blinked, neither admitting nor denying.

Jonathan, who had been hiding behind the door and watching the interaction between the two, finally noticed something was wrong.

My father really doesn't like to have close contact with people, and he is very strict with him occasionally, but like today, he never said thank you to Peggy from the beginning to the end, and he didn't give up until he killed the other party.Jonathan realized now that Peggy had probably done far more than he had done sneaking out.

Jonathan, who wanted to avoid a wave of punishment and threw the blame on Peggy, was extremely uneasy at the moment.

"Clark" never joked, at least as far as he could remember.If "Clark" had said he was going to lock Paige in the woodshed, he would have done it.

As far as Peggy's injury is concerned, it's a ghost to survive this cold night!

The more Jonathan thought about it, the more frightened he became. He almost believed that he had killed Peggy Kent.It was he who killed the woman who protected him when facing danger!

Jonathan cried "Wow".

"Clark" turned his head and looked at Jonathan in surprise.But I saw Jonathan crying from the direction of the bedroom, and threw himself into Peggy's arms.

"Father, father! Don't blame Peggy! She didn't kidnap me! I ran out by myself! She is a good person, don't lock her in the firewood house! Hey, hey, hey~~~~"

Peggy, who was thrown into her arms by the little one, endured the pain and did not push him away.

This guy... his acting skills still need to be honed!

"Clark" said with a gloomy face, "Jonathan, go back to the house!"

"I'm not going! Don't be mean to Aunt Peggy! She saved my life."

"Clark"'s face became even uglier: "What do you call her?"

Jonathan sniffed: "Auntie. She is your cousin, isn't it right for me to call her Auntie?"

"Go back to the house!" "Clark"'s voice became a little harsh.

Jonathan was taken aback, shiveringly withdrew his arm around Peggy.

Peggy patted Jonathan on the back and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, Jonathan, just be obedient and go back to the house. I'll be fine."

"But..." Jonathan glanced at "Clark" who had a fierce look on his face, and before finishing his sentence, he ran back to the bedroom in desperation, and peeped through the crack of the door.

For a moment, the only sound in the room was the crackling of the firewood in the fireplace.

The itching in my toes came back again.

Probably chilblains.

Paige thought silently.

After being quiet for a long time, "Clark" suddenly said: "You can rest on the sofa tonight. I will take you to the police station tomorrow morning."

Peggy thought of the policeman with cowboy style, and didn't feel much worried about tomorrow.

She moved her legs again: "Is there a medicine box?"

"Clark" glanced at Peggy, turned around and brought the medicine box.

Peggy watched him open the medicine box, not only gauze alcohol, but also needles and threads to suture the wound.Being in the deep mountains and old forests, it is inevitable to encounter one or two wounded people who need help.Paige was not at all surprised to see these items in the medicine cabinet.

As soon as "Clark" took out the needle and thread, Peggy said, "I'll do it myself."

"Clark" looked at Peggy in surprise, and finally handed the things to Peggy silently.

Peggy skillfully took the guy she was eating, and quickly started to sew up the wound for herself.

The pain took all her attention, and Paige didn't even notice when "Clark" left.

After the wound was stitched, Peggy realized that "Clark" was no longer in the room.At some point, there was an extra glass of whiskey on the low table beside him.Peggy didn't think too much, she took out two anti-inflammatory pills from the medicine box, and swallowed the glass of whiskey in one gulp.Then wrapped in a thin blanket, he fell into a drowsy sleep.

There was a nice smell of pine wood in the house.

In the dream, Peggy dreamed of her young self.

In the dream, she and Clark were not much older than the current Jonathan.

They walked hand in hand on Smallville's path.

Beside a cornfield that was taller than both of them, the childish Clark suddenly reached out and hugged her.
