bride as a paranoid mermaid

Xia Shenlan carefully placed the rose in the shadow beside her, and her consciousness gradually collapsed.

He dreamed of the scene when he and Jiang Chenxing were sailing together in the past.

After asking about it, Jiang Chenxing said that he wanted a rose garden. He would lie on his beloved's lap, bask in the sun, and wait for time to pass.

Speaking of this, Jiang Chenxing in the dream suddenly stopped, his stature was taller, but he looked even more slender, his skin was as pale as paper, and tiny veins were entrenched under his skin, like some evil totem, in the depths of beauty, it was actually Xia Shenlan developed an aggressiveness that made Xia Shenlan terrified.

Xia Shenlan trembled, and seemed to be confused, "My beloved?"

"You really don't understand?" Jiang Chenxing seemed to be smiling, pressing Xia Shenlan tightly, "Which younger brother would have such a strong possessive desire for elder brother? Don't you really understand? My jealousy, my desire..."

Xia Shenlan knew that he shouldn't continue listening.

He said in his heart: It's all a dream, wake up, wake up!

The young man sitting on the rattan chair swing suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were dazed, and his chest heaved violently, as if he hadn't recovered from the dream just now.

"Brother Xia, where are my roses?"

Jiang Chenxing also woke up, but he was still lying on Xia Shenlan's shoulder. When he spoke, his breath seemed to be intertwined with Xia Shenlan's breath.

Because of the dream just now, Xia Shenlan felt a little awkward about such close contact, and used the movement of holding flowers to distance herself from Jiang Chenxing.

"A little wilted..."

Jiang Chenxing didn't have much energy, and looked at the rose with half-closed eyelids. She was soft and pale, like another kind of white rose blooming.

Xia Shenlan was a little distracted, and suddenly, Jiang Chenxing's cold hand rested on his thigh, bearing a lot of weight.

Shocked, he came back to his senses and saw Jiang Chenxing supporting his leg, leaning over and kissing Bai Meigui.

Xia Shenlan subconsciously withdrew her hand, but unexpectedly, Jiang Chenxing kissed his wrist instead.

The cold touch brought hot wildfire, which exploded and swept through the whole body from the wrist.

It's not his illusion, Jiang Chenxing really likes him.

Not only that, but Jiang Chenxing wanted him to face this love.

Xia Shenlan subconsciously resisted.

"Jiang Chenxing..."

Jiang Chenxing raised his head upon hearing the sound, his eyes were lazy, revealing some kind of unspeakable satisfaction: "It's very beautiful, I like it very much."

Xia Shenlan pursed her lips, and forced a smile: "As long as you like it..."

He was real, he didn't know how to face Jiang Chenxing.

Xia Shenlan is very clear about her feelings. He regards Jiang Chenxing as his younger brother, and has never had any feelings beyond this limit, but now Jiang Chenxing wants to pull him out of his safe zone.

He didn't want to go out, didn't want to change, his calm mind suddenly became muddled and messed up.

"I, I'm going to the bathroom..."

In the end, Xia Shenlan left the sun room in a hurry after leaving such a sentence.

Jiang Chenxing leaned on the swing, staring at Xia Shenlan's back.

After a long time, he held up the rose, covered it with the tip of his nose, took a deep breath, then slowly stood up, twirling the petals with his fingertips, and walked towards the direction Xia Shenlan left.

In fact, it is not suitable for Jiang Chenxing to hold flowers up to the tip of his nose. The pollen will rush into his nasal cavity and airway, which will cause a heart-scratching itching. The blood stasis in the heart can only stop.

But he did it anyway.

He has a clear interest lever in his heart, as long as it is profitable, he will not hesitate to put his life on it.

Along the way, Jiang Chenxing's complexion was pale but there was a hint of a smile, only his Adam's apple could not stop rolling up and down, telling that he was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.

Finally walking to the sink outside the bathroom, he put the flowers aside, bent down and coughed suddenly.

Xia Shenlan was originally enlightening herself in the cubicle, but suddenly heard the heart-piercing coughing outside, she couldn't sit still, and hurriedly opened the door and rushed out.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Jiang Chenxing holding on to the sink coughing up blood.

A large piece of dark red blood stained the sink, and Jiang Chenxing's already pale face was even more bloodless. The only color was a little scarlet between his lips, which looked both fragile and thrillingly magnificent.

Jiang Chenxing half-closed his brows and eyes, with no sadness or joy on his face, he turned on the faucet casually, and clean water rushed out, easily removing the blood stains, and the porcelain-white sink was instantly clean as if nothing had happened.

"Jiang Chenxing..."

Once again, Xia Shenlan almost lost the ability to speak, calling Jiang Chenxing's name, but didn't know what to say.

Jiang Chenxing washed his hands as if nothing had happened, and the words he said jumped: "Brother Xia, let's go to the sea tomorrow."

Xia Shenlan didn't know why she suddenly started this topic, but she naturally wanted to refuse: "The seaside wind is too strong."

Jiang Chenxing turned a deaf ear: "I want to visit the reef area, but I haven't been there yet."

"The reef area is very slippery, and the waves are still big. If you are not careful, you will be swept into the sea. Don't you have anything else to do?"

"But I just want to go. We agreed before that we would go together."

The original agreement was to go to the reef area together after Jiang Chenxing recovered from his illness.

But... Will Jiang Chenxing's illness really recover?

In the past, Xia Shenlan would definitely nod and say yes without hesitation, but now he can't feel lucky.

After all, Xia Shenlan didn't bring those depressed emotions to the surface, and pretended to compromise helplessly: "Then you must listen to me tomorrow, and don't run around."

Jiang Chenxing smiled: "Definitely."

The atmosphere became inexplicably silent, and for the first time Xia Shenlan felt that it was an embarrassing thing to be together with Jiang Chenxing and have nothing to say.

Xia Shenlan took out her mobile phone, "... Let me see how the weather will be tomorrow."

"Hmm..." Jiang Chenxing came over naturally, "It's a sunny day."

Xia Shenlan retreated a little, but she was still able to smell the cold rose scent on Jiang Chenxing's body, and she couldn't control the slight trembling of her eyelashes.

Fortunately, Jiang Chenxing carefully looked at the weather forecast on the phone screen and didn't notice his abnormality.

Xia Shenlan gave a dry cough, suppressed the overly nervous reaction, and echoed: "Well, and tomorrow is twenty-three, and the tide will start to ebb after two o'clock, which is the time when the sun will be the sunniest."

"There is sun protection at home."

"Sunscreen can't protect against the sun at the seaside." Xia Shenlan grew up running by the seaside and has a deep understanding of this. "Let's go out after lunch tomorrow."

"Okay."

Xia Shenlan remembered the situation at the beach, and continued: "Do you have gloves at home? And military rubber shoes. There are oysters growing on the reef, which are very sharp, and when you touch them, there will be a bloody mouth."

"Yes, you can buy it if you don't have it."

"Then ask Auntie later."

"Ah."

Xia Shenlan went through the precautions in her mind, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't gone out to catch the sea with Jiang Chenxing for a while, and Jiang Chenxing's current situation is no different from before, so he must be fully prepared.

In order to prevent accidents tomorrow, Xia Shenlan opened the memo and wrote down all the precautions that could be thought of.

"Sir, lunch is ready." Auntie's voice came from the door.

Jiang Chenxing didn't respond to her, but said to Xia Shenlan: "Let's go, Brother Xia, it's time to eat."

When Xia Shenlan wrote the memo, she thought of seven or eight precautions. She was afraid that she would forget all of them later, so she nodded perfunctorily, and walked out while typing.

His peripheral vision has been paying attention to the road ahead, and avoiding roadblocks is not a problem at all.

But he forgot one very important thing. Now that he is not on the main road, and there are no roadblocks in front, it does not mean that there is a flat river under his feet.

Seeing that Xia Shenlan was about to step on the small steps, the aunt wanted to remind her, but she suddenly noticed Jiang Chenxing's cold gaze, and the reminder stuck in her throat, so she couldn't say it.

Xia Shenlan didn't notice it, she stepped on the small step, bent her knee, and almost knelt down.

But instead of falling, he fell into a cold embrace.

Jiang Chenxing's voice was brisk, as if he was asking for credit: "I caught you."

With lingering fears in her heart, Xia Shenlan hurriedly stood up straight and looked at Jiang Chenxing worriedly: "Are you all right? Did I bump into you?"

"No, how can I be so fragile?"

Xia Shenlan looked at Jiang Chenxing's slender and pale wrist, which seemed to be broken at a snap, and said to herself, why aren't you so fragile?

Of course, it was impossible for him to really say this, and forced a smile: "Yes, you are not fragile. Today is thanks to Mr. Jiang, otherwise I would definitely be injured."

Jiang Chenxing pursed his lips, but still let out a little smile, "I promised to take good care of Brother Xia."

Xia Shenlan was stunned suddenly. For some reason, he, who had always been insensitive to emotions, suddenly realized at this moment that Jiang Chenxing was not as happy as he looked on the surface. His smile was forced, and there was a faint gleam in his eyes——

He is grieving.

The question that Xia Shenlan had been deliberately ignoring all this time came to her mind again: Sensitive as Jiang Chenxing, can't you feel his deliberate alienation?

When Jiang Chenxing approached, but he pulled away in embarrassment, what was Jiang Chenxing thinking?

If Jiang Chenxing pretended not to know even though he felt alienated from him, and went his own way, then is his current choice really the right one?

No one can see what Jiang Chenxing is thinking. Even if the auntie saw the whole process clearly, knowing that Jiang Chenxing deliberately let Xia Shenlan fall, and knowing that Jiang Chenxing deliberately made a sad expression for Xia Shenlan to analyze, she still didn't understand. What exactly does Jiang Chenxing want to do?

She has been working as a housekeeper in a rich man's house for a long time, and she has seen a lot of scenes where her brothers fight against each other, and the mistress is in the top position, but no one makes her feel so elusive.

Especially Jiang Chenxing's eyebrows and eyes occasionally leaked a suppressed and crazy hostility, which made her terrified, and she didn't dare to look at him at all.

She didn't dare to remind this Mr. Xia that Mr. Jiang was not as weak as he appeared on the surface, so he could only lower his head and look at his nose and heart.
