The bathroom was steamy and misty.

The wheelchair was placed outside the bathing area, and Xie Xingzhi sat on it to watch Xie Anheng bend over to adjust the water temperature, and added a few drops of the bath essential oil mentioned by the doctor to the water, saying that it can sleep and relax.

In an instant, the warm fragrance spread.

Seeing that Xie Anheng was all ready and stood up, Xie Xingzhi said before he could speak: "Go out, I can do the rest myself."

"You can do it yourself?" Xie Anheng seemed to be really puzzled, "There is no handrail in this bathroom, my brother will fall, so let me support you."

Xie Xingzhi finally realized what it means to be involuntary.

This time the hospital added a board to his leg, and only one leg was left to move. It just happened to Xie Anheng's wish, and he had to rely on him even for trivial things like washing.

At that time, the car was hit from the side, and Xie Xingzhi was put into the bathtub by him. Most of the wounds were concentrated on the shoulder and one arm. The wounds that need to be treated outside the bath bubble were not big, but there were quite a few.

"If my hands are heavy, you can tell me." Xie Anheng gently applied the maintenance gel on his skin with a small cotton swab, with very light force.

To feel itchy.

Not very comfortable, but barely tolerable.

Xie Xingzhi lowered his eyelashes to watch the movements of his hands, ready to catch him whenever he sneaked to places he shouldn't touch.

Bisheng Xie Anheng just pretended that he had nothing else to do but only wanted to take care of him, Xie Xingzhi stared at him for a long time, but nothing went wrong.

Finally, Xie Anheng's little cotton swab lingered on the unwounded skin for a while, and finally wanted to claw deep into his collarbone——

Xie Xingzhi was so itchy that his whole body trembled, he suddenly raised his hand to grab his arm, and brought up a curtain of water splashes, all of which flew onto Xie Anheng's clothes.

"Did you hurt brother?" Xie Anheng was also startled when he suddenly grabbed hold of her.

Xie Xingzhi: "You apply the medicine well, what are you poking on my collarbone?"

"You have a wound on your collarbone." Xie Anheng looked innocent, and showed him a small mirror, "here."

Xie Xingzhi looked at it, it really is.

In the blind spot of his vision, there was a scratch less than the size of a mung bean.

That was a really big wound.

If Xie Anheng hadn't discovered it, it might heal itself after a while.

"..." Xie Xingzhi couldn't bear it anymore, "Give me the cotton swab and medicine, I'll apply it myself, you go out."

Xie Anheng did not agree.

He looked at him and said for a long time: "Brother used to clean my wounds like this."

Xie Xingzhi's lips moved slightly.

"In the Fuxin Guest House, I was injured by Xie Weimao, you picked me up from the garbage dump." Xie Anheng hooked his little finger, "I was covered in wounds and filth, you didn't dislike me at all, and you helped me like this Wipe the body slowly and treat the wound."

"I felt at that time...there would never be another person in the world who treated me so well, and I must do my best to repay it in the future."

Xie Anheng stared at him with dark and deep pupils: "I still think so today."

Thinking about his miserable situation in the past, Xie Xingzhi couldn't help feeling sour.

He relaxed a lot, but still said: "You were too young at that time, which is different from me now. I also took the medicine myself when you were away, it's not that serious."

The meaning in the words was obviously still rejection, Xie Anheng pursed his lips: "...Are you still blaming me?"

Xie Xingzhi: "What?"

"I'm too stupid to see through Xia Jinghui's deception, and I don't know your good intentions." Xie Anheng clenched his hand holding the towel a little bit, and dripping water dripped into the bathtub, "I've cleared up all the rumors that slandered you I'm really sorry for what I did to you those days, brother."

Since the second reunion, this was the number of times Xie Anheng apologized to him.

Xie Xingzhi didn't avoid him because of this matter, the two were not on the same channel, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

He didn't speak, the corners of Xie Anheng's lips were lowered.

Xie Xingzhi couldn't see him like this, thought for a while, and changed the subject: "Those rumors... What exactly does Xia Jinghui have in his hands that can make you look like this?"

It's not that he is too narcissistic. Although Xie Anheng in this life is a little crooked in some aspects, the fundamentals have not changed. What's more, he has been trained and educated like a devil before going abroad, so there is no reason why he can't play with Xia Jinghui.

If he was really incompetent, it would be impossible for the upper echelons of Manbei City to be reshuffled in such a short few days.

Xie Xingzhi was really curious about what could have shackled him into this appearance.

Xie Anheng didn't seem to expect that he would ask such a direct question, and was taken aback.

"Brother, can you answer my question first?"

"Tell me." Xie Xingzhi said seriously.

Xie Anheng looked at him deeply for a moment: "When my brother met me for the first time, he said that he came back from abroad and wanted to help me. It was a lie, right?"

"..." Xie Xingzhi hesitated.

He knew that no matter what, he would not be able to escape this question in the end, so he had to explain it to Xie Anheng.

But it doesn't mean now.

Xie Xingzhi hasn't been able to think of another story that can justify itself.

But now that he has grown up, he is not as easy to fool as he was when he was a child. Xie Anheng asked this question when the two met on the cruise ship for the first time before. He obviously had already investigated and even figured out the details of Xie Xingzhi's original body .

Xie Xingzhi instantly had one head and two big ones.

Seeing Xie Xingzhi's silence, he was not in a hurry: "My brother has no blood relationship with me, nor Xie Weimao. It's just a coincidence that you and I have the same surname."

"You already know, why do you still ask me?" Xie Xingzhi thought of his original ugly name, and was afraid that he would hear it from Xie Anheng in the next second, so he couldn't help interrupting.

Fortunately, Xie Anheng's goal was not his name.

He poked the surface of the water with his fingers, and said softly: "You once committed suicide by taking medicine."

Xie Xingzhi raised his eyes.

"Just the day before you stuffed medicine in my bag for the first time, you opened a room at the Fuxin Guest House and bought a bottle of sleeping pills." Xie Anheng also stopped wiping him and looked at him .

"What does this have to do with my problem?" He looked at him with such small, resentful eyes again, Xie Xingzhi felt terrified when he saw such eyes.

Sure enough, his premonition was not wrong at all.

Xie Anheng reached out to take out the phone from his pocket, and found a photo: "This is the girl who called you that day, remember? You had a big fight on the phone, and then you committed suicide by taking medicine."

"What?" Xie Xing subconsciously asked, and immediately reacted, "I mean...you also found out this?"

Yuanshen's housework was easy to handle, and no other relatives and friends came to recognize him these years, Xie Xingzhi gradually forgot about it.

After he finished speaking, he wanted to reach out for the phone to take a closer look, but Xie Anheng shrank back, avoiding his movements: "It's just a very ordinary woman, nothing to look at."

"This person is just greedy for your money. If something happens to your family, the first thing she thinks of is asking you for money."

Xie Anheng's tone became more and more sour.

"She came to the room and saw you lying on the ground. She didn't think of saving you at all, and took pictures of you with her mobile phone. This kind of person is not worthy of my brother's thinking about her."

Xie Xingzhi accurately captured the important information in his words: "Take a picture of me?"

Xie Anheng frowned: "Yes."

"She knew you were going to commit suicide in the room, so she deliberately waited until the next day to find you." He said, "She was very cautious, and she was afraid of getting into trouble. Not only did she have photos, but she also left a video. In the video, you were lying on the ground... …was dead before she entered the room."

Xie Xing was startled.

In order to understand the situation of his own body, he also investigated Xie Dabao's family background, so he naturally knew that the other party had a crush on a woman since he was a child.

But it was obvious that this woman only treated him as a cash machine for human flesh, and had no affection for him. The two of them never even held hands until college.

When something happened to his family, Xie Dabao was in despair on his deathbed, and the last phone call was made to his crush.

But it's a pity that the crush didn't understand the truth of the matter, and only thought that Xie Dabao wanted to continue pestering him, so he didn't say anything good on the phone, which made Xie Dabao even more upset.

But Xie Xingzhi's investigation ended here, and he didn't think about it deeply, let alone contact this woman.

Unexpectedly, she came to see Xie Dabao in the guest house, probably because she learned that something happened to Xie Dabao's family, and she was afraid that he would really commit suicide.

That should be before he woke up, and the two just missed it.

"Brother, did you remember?" Xie Anheng's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Then where did these photos go?" Xie Xingzhi's heart tightened, "Have they been bought by Xia Jinghui?"

On the contrary, Xie Anheng didn't seem to care too much, and even raised the corners of his mouth: "Yes, she wants to squeeze out your last value. Xia Jinghui met her when he was investigating you, and this person exchanged this video with your photo. A sum of money."

Xia Jinghui has always been the best at taking advantage of other people's weaknesses.

And Xie Anheng's weakness...it's so easy to find, it's him.

If such information fell into Xia Jinghui's hands, he would definitely make a big fuss and use it to hold Xie Anheng hostage.

In this way, there was an explanation why Xie Anheng was able to deal with Xia Jinghui without fear as soon as he died.

Xie Xingzhi looked at Xie Anheng, unable to speak for a long time.

"When did you know?" He raised his hand and squeezed the space between his brows, "During the two months when I first went abroad?"

The water in the bathtub was not too hot anymore, Xie Anheng glanced at Xie Xingzhi's wrinkled fingertips, seemed unwilling to say any more, and instead stood up: "This has long been over."

"The water is cold, I will help my brother up."

After finishing speaking, he took the bath towel and bathrobe next to him, and then bent down to hug Xie Xingzhi.

Xie Xingzhi was still a little dazed, and didn't think of rejecting immediately.

And Xie Anheng was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he didn't make a fuss about him like before, he quickly wrapped him in an absorbent towel, and quickly carried him out of the bathroom.

The heating in the bedroom had been fully turned on long before he went to take a bath, and Xie Xingzhi was gently placed on the soft sofa in front of the bed by him.

"The things that happened to me are very complicated, and I can't tell you now." Xie Xingzhi explained, "But there is one thing I can promise you."

He looked at the person in front of him who was wiping the drops of water with low eyebrows and said: "From the beginning to the end, I did everything just to protect you. I never deliberately deceived you to harm you. Those were Xia Jinghui's deliberate intentions." Provocation, I want you and me to misunderstand."

Such heartfelt words received a mediocre response.

Xie Anheng let out a "huh" and said in a low voice: "I know, brother is the only person in the world who treats me and loves me sincerely."

He raised his head and smiled at Xie Xingzhi: "My brother has always done things correctly. You can't tell me because of your reasons. I won't ask, and I won't hurt you like before. You don't have to worry."

Xie Xingzhi fell into a long silence for a while.

He thought that Xie Anheng would want to know the truth, but obviously he guessed wrong again, this is not what he cares about at all.

What does Xie Anheng care about?

A person who likes him cautiously, what else can he care about...

No.

Although I don't know where this love comes from, but going on like this will only make Xie Anheng sink deeper and deeper.

The longer it is delayed, the greater the harm will be when it is said, it will not benefit any of them, and it is not the result that Xie Xingzhi is happy to see.

When Xie Anheng wiped his ankles all the way, and was about to go down and wrap his toes with a towel, Xie Xingzhi was shocked all over and regained his senses.

"I'll do it myself, you put it down." Just at that moment, a certain absurd and mind-numbing picture in the dream flashed before his eyes.

"I've almost finished wiping. I'll do this little thing. Brother just sit down." Xie Anheng was held down by his hand, raised his head and blinked at him.

This face and this look of admiration and affection made Xie Xingzhi press down on his wrist even more: "Don't call me brother again in the future."

"What?" Xie Anheng was stunned, panic immediately appeared on his face.

He suddenly knelt on the sofa and grabbed his clothes: "Did I say something wrong? I just made you angry again?"

Xie Xingzhi: "..."

Xie Anheng: "I didn't mean to say that woman was bad, I just... I'm afraid that she will hurt my brother again."

"It has nothing to do with her." The whole person was blocked between Xie Anheng and the back of the small sofa, and the corners of Xie Xingzhi's forehead tensed.

"Then what didn't I do well, my brother told me, I..." Seeing that his expression was wrong, Xie Anheng didn't dare to speak again.

This picture of a bewildered little daughter-in-law... Xie Xingzhi is really afraid that if he exposes it now, Xie Anheng will make him cry, make trouble and hang himself.

For a moment, he even missed that arrogant and unreasonable Xie Anheng a few days ago, at least he could be ruthless and refuse.

"I'm not your brother, and you know it yourself, why do you have to call me brother?"

Xie Xingzhi can only say this.

Xie Anheng moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but his eyes flickered, and he drooped his eyelids and did not answer.

"Because..." The person in front of him was silent for a long time, and finally said, "This is...the only connection between you and me."

Xie Xingzhi: "The only connection?"

"..."

Xie Anheng's fingers curled up on the armrest of the sofa.

Xie Xingzhi understood.

Even if he knew that his brother was a fake, it was the only bond they had before.

For Xie Anheng, it didn't matter whether it was true or not, he just wanted an intimate relationship to prove that the connection between him and Xie Xingzhi was real.

And as long as he continues to call his brother, the connection between them will not be broken.

"Besides brothers, there are many other kinds of relationships between people."

Xie Xingzhi suddenly became a little soft-hearted, and when he was ready to refuse, he turned his lips around and said, "You also have many friends, don't you? Not only have family members."

"Friend?" Xie Anheng raised his eyes suddenly, "I don't want to be your friend."

Xie Xingzhi paused: "What?"

Realizing that his tone was not good, Xie Anheng slowed down: "Cen Xiangyang is your friend, I am not, I have a better relationship with you."

He said seriously: "I am different from him."

Xie Xingzhi carefully tasted these two sentences in his mind several times before he realized something was wrong.

If it's not a family member, but it's closer than a friend, and it has to be special, what else can it be?

This is when he didn't know it, and he was going to subtly make a foreshadowing first.

Xie Xingzhi's carelessness just dissipated immediately, and he was completely too lazy to continue picking words with him: "According to what you said, doesn't Cen Xiangyang also call me brother like you?"

Xie Anheng didn't expect to throw a stone at her own foot, and opened her mouth repeatedly: "I..."

"No matter what, you are not allowed to call me brother in the future." Xie Xingzhi raised the corners of his lips, thinking that you are too tender to play with him, "You will call me by my name directly from now on."

"Calling your name..." Xie Anheng murmured, "Thank you Xingzhi."

The tone was soft and tender, almost giving him goosebumps.

Just as Xie Xingzhi was about to stop him, Xie Anheng made another big move.

"But it doesn't seem very polite." He tasted these three words repeatedly between his lips like he was holding some treasure, and said, "Do it, do it... I will call brother... I will call you to do it, it's okay ?"

"..." Xie Xingzhi was completely numb, and waved his hands expressionlessly, "It's up to you, call it whatever you like."

Seeing Xie Anheng's mood ups and downs because of his words, his face changed in an instant, and he happily carried him to the bed, muttering in his mouth that he was going to make him a cup of hot milk.

Xie Xingzhi put on his shorts under the quilt and watched his back disappear at the door of the bedroom, his mood was as complicated as his expression.

Forget it.

Now that Xie Anheng still has such serious injuries on his body, and his psychological problems have not recovered, it is not suitable to talk about these topics with him. If he hurts his little glass heart again, what can he do to hurt himself without him knowing? move...

Xie Xingzhi leaned on the soft pillow and let out a long breath.

Rejection must be rejected. Let's wait for this turmoil to pass, and find a suitable opportunity to explain it to him carefully.

Now let's start by rejecting those overly intimate actions, and tell Xie Anheng his attitude little by little.

Xie Xingzhi couldn't help laughing when he thought of Xie Anheng's playful and embarrassing appearance in front of him just now.

Isn't it just foreshadowing, he will too.

the next morning.

Xie Xingzhi rarely had a good night's sleep and got up early.

As soon as there was a little movement on his side, the bedroom door opened.

Xie Anheng brought a bowl of minced meat porridge, the food was fragrant, Xie Xingzhi was used to his cooking in those years, when he smelled the smell, he subconsciously salivated and moved his index finger.

"I'll take you to wash up." Xie Anheng also knew that he liked to eat these, so he rolled his eyes happily, put the bowls and chopsticks on the small table, and pushed over the wheelchair.

Xie Xingzhi was not in a hurry for a few minutes, he didn't wait for Xie Anheng to come over, he took the lead in propping himself up on the bed and moved into the wheelchair to sit down, then raised his head and asked, "What are your plans today? Are you going to the company?"

He even had his formal clothes on, so he must have gotten up early and made breakfast for him before going out.

"I have kept a servant at home, and I will come back to have dinner with you before noon." Xie Anheng said, "The company is only dealing with small matters, so it won't be too busy."

Xie Xingzhi heard his implication that he didn't want him to take care of him, so he raised his eyebrows: "What? Are you planning to play the old house of Xia's house?"

"How come?" Xie Anheng looked wronged, "I left my notebook here, you can use it as you like, you know the password."

"I don't need a notebook. What's going on with your current situation? I just need you to tell me this honestly." Yesterday's playfulness is back to play, the danger has not passed, Xie Xingzhi will not be confused .

And he had already made an appearance at the Peninsula Hotel, and now that everyone is well informed, the opponent will surely know that he is not dead soon, blindly avoiding him will not do anything, and it is safest to take the initiative to attack.

But Xie Anheng obviously didn't think so. When it comes to this aspect, he completely lost the obedient and obedient appearance just now: "I can handle the company's affairs by myself. You can heal your injuries and then talk about other things."

As he said that, he turned his wheelchair and pushed it into the bathroom: "You wash up first, and if you have any requirements, just ask the servant at any time. I will come back to accompany you at noon."

Xie Xingzhi is too lazy to play Tai Chi with him here: "But what if I want to go out?"

"Of course you can do whatever you want." Xie Anheng said in a gentle tone, "It's sunny outside, so I should go out for a while. I also planted some flowers and plants in the yard, and I can call someone to push you out at any time."

He was clearly pretending not to understand, but his attitude was so good that Xie Xingzhi couldn't get angry, as if he punched the cotton

"Okay." Xie Xingzhi knew that his heart disease would not be so easy to solve for a while, "You go to work."

He was not angry, Xie Anheng was obviously relieved, and before he left, he carefully ordered the servants and bodyguards who stayed behind to take care of him, and then went out.

Xie Anheng didn't tell him, so Xie Xingzhi could only ask others by himself.

He came out of the bathroom, blew on the bowl of porridge, and his mouth was still a little hot, so he took out the mobile phone with his original calling card, and directly dialed Zhao Hongjun's number.

"Hello? Brother Xingzhi?" The other party's voice was obviously very excited.

After a year, Xie Xingzhi felt relieved when he heard the voice of his old friend again: "Uncle Zhao, it's me."

"I'm fine. I'm recuperating. The children at home are not good at talking. They won't tell me anything. Are you free to come to my small building for a gathering? Let's chat."
