Played by the devil in the palm of his hand

Edward's pupils dilated slightly. He was just suspicious at first, but Xu Chi really knew? !

"He asked me a question and asked me to give the correct answer." Xu Chi lowered his head, avoiding the other party's gaze, and tremblingly said, "But, I'm sorry, I can't tell you what the question is, if you know , I'm afraid he'll..."

Edward instantly understood that there must be some kind of secret between the demon and Xu Chi, and if Xu Chi told the secret to someone else, that person might die.

In this way, Xu Chi was actually under more pressure than them.

Xu Chi whispered: "I've been thinking of the answer very hard, give me some time, and I will definitely end all of this."

"I understand." Edward's face remained unchanged, and he pressed Xu Chi's shoulder calmly, "No matter what, I will always stand by your side."

Xu Chi smiled palely, "Thank you."

Edward also smiled, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Obviously I am five years older than you, but now the burden is all on your shoulders, I am quite embarrassed."

He put his arms around Xu Chi's shoulders and walked forward, "Just in time to say hello to Coco Li and Li Wu, we'll go back first."

"Is it okay to let them stay in the hospital?"

"It's okay, and I think the two of them need a space to be alone."

Xu Chi walked into the intensive care unit and saw that Coco Li had woken up. Although his face was still very tired, he could half sit up and lean on the soft pillow at the head of the bed.

Li Wu was sitting on the stool by the bed, talking to him in a low voice, Coco Li smiled and comforted him, then stretched out the hand with the infusion needle and touched Li Wu's head.

Li Wu's hair is very black and short, and it feels a bit prickly to the touch. This hairstyle, coupled with his unruly and profound facial features, makes the whole person look a bit fierce.

But in front of Coco Li, he was just a very big but very obedient wolfhound, all he had to do was tie a chain around his neck and wag his tail behind him.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Coco Li turned her head, looked at Xu Chi, and bowed her head to express her gratitude, "Xiao Wu said that you donated blood for me. I am very grateful to you, Mr. Xu."

"It's just a hands-on effort."

Coco Lee looked at Edward again, "Mr. Edward, thank you for performing the operation on me."

Edward waved his hand, "It's nothing, after all, we are all in the same boat now, and it is right to help each other."

A few people chatted briefly, and Edward drove Xu Chi back to the apartment. Xu Chi sat in the co-pilot and looked out the window. When he passed the playground, he suddenly said, "Edward, stop." ^HGWC % team finishing

Edward stepped on the brake, "What's wrong?"

Xu Chi unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door and got out of the car, and said through the window: "I have something to do, you should go back first."

"..." Edward was silent for a moment, but he didn't ask any further questions, just said, "Be careful."

Xu Chi nodded, "Don't worry."

He turned around and walked towards the playground. After a few seconds, the sound of a car starting came from behind him, and the roar gradually faded away.

Xu Chi met a little girl in her teens on the road, looking up at the tree.He also looked up, and saw a big red hydrogen balloon stuck between the branches, shaking with the autumn wind.

Xu Chi estimated the distance, jumped up, grabbed the string of the balloon with his fingers, pulled it down, and returned it to its original owner.

The little girl bowed to him to express her gratitude, then turned around and ran away as if she was very shy, with the twin ponytails waving constantly on the back of her head.

Xu Chi looked at her slender figure and subconsciously recalled that autumn eight years ago.

……

Uninvited guests forced to check in the first night.

"You son of a bitch, don't expect me to let you sleep on the bed." Xu Chi threw a blanket on the boy, pointed to the sofa in the living room and said, "You'll sleep here tonight, and if you're hungry, go to the kitchen to find something to eat. I don't care about you."

The boy sat quietly in a corner of the sofa, touched the soft blanket on his body, his face was still gentle and soft, and there was a slight smile on his face.

That kind of expression would make people mistakenly think that he is a very sensible, obedient, restrained and polite child, but Xu Chi will not be fooled by him again: Can a normal child recognize a gunshot wound through the gauze at a glance?Would a normal child threaten an adult with a mobile phone without changing his face?

So shrewd.Even though Xu Chi grew up in an orphanage and met many independent and self-reliant children, he had never encountered such a difficult kid.

Xu Chi took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator, lazily stepped on his slippers and went back to the bedroom. Before closing the door, he took a peek at the boy and saw him sitting on the sofa watching TV. Upright, with an appearance of keeping one's place.

Xu Chi comforted himself in his heart that he was too suspicious, no matter how shrewd he was, he was only an eleven or twelve year old kid, what trouble could he cause?

Bacheng is just a rich second generation who ran away from home. Children who grew up in that kind of family like to pretend to be mature.

But Xu Chi hesitated for a moment, and locked the door before sitting on the bed with peace of mind, and turned on the laptop to play games.

At ten o'clock at night, he saw through the gap under the door that the light in the living room had gone out, presumably the boy was going to sleep.Xu Chi was exhausted all day, and he was sleepy earlier than before, so he closed his notebook and turned off the lights to sleep.

Xu Chi's sleep has always been relatively shallow, especially when he just returned to this long-unoccupied apartment, his nerves became a little more tense than usual. At about one or two o'clock, he suddenly felt that there was someone more beside him. .

It was a warm, breathing body, pressed against him.

Xu Chi woke up suddenly, every cell in his body was heavily guarded, even before he opened his eyes, the instinct of his body had already forced him to react, kicking the person down.

Xu Chi sat up abruptly, reflexively took out the knife from under the pillow, and panted looking at the extra people in the room.

The boy got up from the ground, stood in the moonlight, and said helplessly, "Are you usually so violent?"

Xu Chi stared at him with wide eyes, "How did you get in?"

"I just opened the door and came in." The boy smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry to scare you, but I don't dare to sleep alone, so I came looking for you."

Xu Chi wiped the cold sweat off his face with the back of his hand, still in shock, "I obviously locked the door."

"Huh? Is that so?" The boy's smile was sincere and pure, without any deceit, "Did you remember correctly, when I came in, the door was unlocked."

Xu Chi looked at him suspiciously, turned over and got out of bed, went to the door and turned the handle twice, then looked at the lock cylinder - there was no sign of damage.

Did he really remember it wrong?

Xu Chi scratched at his messy hair, puzzled.

The boy had already got into the warm bed, patted the bed next to him, and turned his back on the guest, "It's getting late, come and sleep."

Xu Chi rolled up the sleeves of his pajamas and threatened fiercely, "Sleep ass! Believe it or not, I'll throw you out of the window!"

The boy glanced at the window, then lay back on the bed very comfortably, covered with Xu Chi's quilt, and said calmly, "Please go ahead."

Xu Chi: "..."

Xu Chi didn't want to sleep with this kid who lacked social beating at all, so he swallowed his anger and rolled onto the sofa, planning to make do with it all night.

In the end, within half an hour, the boy entangled him again like a lingering ghost, and even made an inch of it, taking advantage of the small space on the sofa, and directly squeezed into his arms.

Xu Chi was annoyed, grabbed the boy by the neck and pressed him to the coffee table, and said angrily, "What the hell are you trying to do? I gave you the bed, isn't that enough?"

The boy was not afraid at all, and even looked at him with a smile, "I said, I dare not sleep alone, I want to sleep with you."

Xu Chi got angry for a while, and it was absolutely impossible for him to believe that this kid would not dare to sleep alone, just like believing that a robot is afraid of injections.

But looking at the boy's ocean-like eyes, Xu Chi was shaken again: If someone has a phobia of the dark, a phobia of a closed room, etc., then it is understandable not to dare to sleep alone.

Therefore, sometimes appearance is so important, and a few words can impress a hard-hearted heart.

Xu Chi let go of him cursing, turned and walked to the bedroom, reluctantly compromised, "All right, all right, I'm afraid of you, so get out and go to sleep."

The boy agreed very obediently, "Okay."

……

Although eight long years have passed since that night, when Xu Chi thinks about it now, he can still be pissed off, especially when he thinks that the boy is Jun Ye, he gnashes his teeth with hatred.

As if venting his anger, Xu Chi raised his foot and kicked the stones on the side of the road far away, cursing in a low voice: "Damn, you can still pretend to be so obedient, what a bastard!"

The more Xu Chi thought about it, the angrier he became. He was really blind to let this bastard live in his house for free for two months!

He strode towards the entrance of the playground, and entered through the ticket gate without even buying a ticket, and the uniformed staff member next to him didn't have any intention of checking the ticket.

The reason why Xu Chi came here was because he had played here with the boy a few times before, and maybe the situation would make him think of more memories about the boy.

He walked in along the main road of the playground, passing along the road. At first there were children's facilities such as carousels, bouncy castles, bumper cars, etc., and then there were slightly more exciting projects such as small haunted houses, mazes, pirate ships, and flying swings.

The Ferris wheel is located in the center of the playground, next to a shooting booth, and a row of exhaust guns on the table.

This kind of gun uses rubber bullets, and it is okay to shoot a balloon, but it is completely harmless to people, and it is very light in the hand.

Xu Chi walked over, picked up an air gun, weighed it, aimed at the bullseye balloon, and pulled the trigger.

With a bang, the bullet hit the wooden board about five centimeters to the left of the balloon, and bounced off with a bang, while the balloon was intact.

Xu Chi shook his head and sighed, "Black-hearted boss."

He stretched out his hand to adjust the intentionally distorted scope on the air gun, aimed and fired again this time, and fired three shots in a row, causing the three balloons to explode one after another.

"You played well." Jun Ye praised sincerely from the side.

At some point, he was already standing next to Xu Chi, wearing a dark coat, his dazzling appearance and tall and straight figure made him stand out in the playground, like a model or star attending an outdoor event.

Xu Chi had long been accustomed to his elusiveness, so he changed the bullet without looking up, and asked impatiently, "What's the matter? Don't bother me if you have nothing to do."

Jun Ye looked at him dotingly, his eyes were as gentle as water, "I thought you would change your attitude a little after knowing my identity."

He paused for a moment, and said with nostalgia: "After all, you were kind to me eight years ago."

Xu Chi didn't say a word, but his mind couldn't help following Jun Ye's words, and returned to eight years ago.
