She messed with me first

Meng Qingrang woke up the next morning. It was just after six o'clock. The city that had been silent for the whole night hadn't become lively yet, and the air seemed extraordinarily quiet.

On the sofa by the wall, Lian Muan was sitting and taking a nap, Tang Jia curled up next to her, leaning against her, looking sweet and heartwarming.

Meng Qingrang couldn't help feeling envious just watching quietly.

She and Qi Xi used to be like this, and they would help her warm her hands and feet that never warmed up, kiss her again when she got close, hug her, lean on her ears and say love words that no one else could hear, or do something... …

"Crack!" The slight sound of the door opening interrupted Meng Qingrang's thoughts, and she slowly turned her head to look at the door.

Seeing Qi Xi who was covered in coolness and his nose was red from the cold, the short-lived sweetness in his memory immediately turned into a sore and unbearable swelling.

Xixi was upset, but she still didn't choose to ignore her.

Qi Xi stayed here last night, went out in a hurry half an hour ago, and just came back from outside now.

The temperature outside was very low, and her limbs were stiff from the cold. It was only halfway through the movement of undoing the scarf that Meng Qing let him stare at her. She stopped for a moment without looking up, and continued to wrap the remaining scarf around, and took it off and put it away casually. On the side, then he took out a bag of hot porridge from his coat pocket, walked to Meng Qingrang's bed, stuffed it in from the edge of the quilt, found her in it all night, and put it down next to her still cold hands.

Lian Mu'an and Tang Jia woke up when they heard the sound of the door opening. Neither of them spoke. They watched Qi Xi's body move quietly for a few seconds, and then moved his arms again.

Under the quilt, Meng Qingrang's hand that was just touching the porridge was lifted by her and covered it.

When Qi Xi did this, she didn't say a word, she didn't even glance at Meng Qingrang, but the warmth penetrated to the bottom of her heart in an instant, making her whole body warm up.

"I'll go back first." Qi Xi straightened up and said to Tang Jia and Lian Mu'an.

Tang Jia subconsciously glanced at Meng Qingrang whose eyes were fixed on Qi Xi, stood up to persuade him to stay, "It's not yet dawn, wait and go?"

Qi Xi's voice was flat, "I'm too tired, I want to go back and rest."

Tang Jia immediately lost his excuses, leaned over to pick up his coat and bag and said, "I'll see you off. You haven't slept all night, so I don't worry about taking a taxi."

Qi Xi did not refuse.

The two quickly left together.

As soon as the ward fell silent, the atmosphere was inexplicably low.

Lian Muan rubbed his face to wake up, looked up and saw Meng Qingrang who was staring at the door on the hospital bed, frowned and said: "It's human nature for Qi Xi to be unable to accept such a big thing for a while. Take your time, she didn't leave you alone on the road, she has treated you well enough, and she stayed to take care of you all night, she is really a bodhisattva."

Meng Qing let know that she was guilty, "Did Xixi cry yesterday?"

Lian Muan, "Yes."

On the way to the hospital, my eyes were always red.

After finally sending Meng Qingrang to the emergency room, the whole person still stood numbly outside without speaking.

Later, Tang Jia really couldn't bear it, and reminded Qi Xi to deal with the blood on her hands, trying to get her to move and distract herself. Who knew that she would go and wash for nearly half an hour.

I used cold water, and I still refused to stop until the back of my hands started to turn blue, and kept complaining that it was hot and uncomfortable.

Not to mention Tang Jia who is a best friend, even Mu An, an outsider who has no friendship, can't stand the picture.

Hey.

Lian Muan sighed silently.

In this matter, regardless of whether Meng Qingrang is innocent or not, it is an indisputable fact that he has hurt Qi Xi twice successively. None of them are qualified to ask Qi Xi to understand.

"Go back to sleep, it's still early." Lian Mu'an said.

Meng Qingrang didn't agree, turned to look at the empty bedside table, and said, "Find my phone for me."

Lian Muan, "Yes."

Lian Mu'an found it quickly, charged it up, and handed it to Meng Qingrang.

Meng Qingrang held it motionless.

After about four or ten minutes, I clicked on the only chat record on the top of WeChat, and tried to send a message: 【Xixi, are you home yet? 】

No rejections, as expected.

But after waiting for a day and a night, there was no reply from Qi Xi.

----

Qi Xi was really tired, physically and mentally exhausted. After returning home, he washed his face and fell asleep until the next morning.

She slept for too long this time, and woke up with a heavy head, but she was thinking about going to work, so she took her mobile phone to check the time, but the first thing she saw was Meng Qingrang's WeChat.

The time reminder has become yesterday.

Qi Xi stared at those words for a while, turned off the phone to get up, and went to work at the same time, and was too busy for the next few days.

In the blink of an eye, it was Friday, and Xiao Xu from the administration department came to Qin Lianzhou with a list to report on the weekend team building.

It was fixed early in the morning.

The work has just been established, and everyone will hang out and have fun together, chatting, and the relationship will be much closer.

"Should I inform Teacher Qi?" Xiao Xu hesitated, "Saturday is Teacher Qi's birthday, so we can be lively together, but Teacher Qi seems to be very busy recently."

Qin Lianzhou looked up at the direction of Qi Xi's office, and said, "I'll go to her side and tell you, you can contact the hotel now to add two more rooms."

Xiao Xu, "Two?"

Qin Lianzhou, "Yes."

Xiao Xu replied in a daze, and immediately went out to make contact.

For lunch, Qin Lianzhou came to Qi Xi with a takeaway for two.

Qi Xi was busy and said casually, "Eat first, I'm not hungry yet."

Qin Lianzhou didn't respond, took out the food boxes one by one and opened them, then walked to Qi Xi's table and turned off the monitor she was looking at.

Qi Xi frowned, "Lianzhou, I'm drawing a picture."

Qin Lianzhou turned a blind eye to Qi Xi's displeasure, put one hand in his pocket and said calmly: "No one knows better than me how much work you have recently. You are so busy that you don't even have time to eat?"

Qi Xi fell silent after being exposed face to face.

After a while, I got up and walked over to eat.

The two sat face to face, and neither of them took the initiative to open the topic.

One eats quietly, and the other 'pans for gold' in the rice with chopsticks.

After a long time, Qin Lianzhou glanced at Qi Xi's movements, and said calmly: "It's not poisonous, even if there is, you can't find it out with wooden chopsticks."

Qi Xi paused when poking the chopsticks into the rice, "Why do you love inner people so much now?"

Qin Lianzhou took a sip of the soup, and replied unhurriedly, "I'm trying to enlighten you."

Qi Xi, "...the way is really unique."

Qin Lianzhou raised her eyes, "Didn't success make you say anything?"

Qi Xi, "..."

"It's been a week, and you haven't figured out the result yet?" Qin Lianzhou got straight to the point.

Qi Xi was silent for a long time, and put down her chopsticks, "Think about it differently, if this kind of thing happened to me, my choice would probably be the same as hers."

Qin Lianzhou, "Since that's the case, why are you still angry with her?"

Qi Xi, "Angry is only for a moment, it's more about fear, distress, and, heh, you still feel aggrieved."

Qi Xi clasped her hands tightly, the blood on them had been washed away long ago, she still felt a little hot when she thought of Meng Qingrang's pale face, "As soon as I calm down these few days, I'm thinking, what if she is too stressed? Big, what if we don’t hold on? What if the time drags on for too long and things go wrong? What if these “what ifs” come true, what will we do?”

"I love and hate her so much that I spent decades in vain? Does she suffer unspeakably and suffer for the rest of her life?" Qi Xi didn't dare to think about the outcome, "Fate is hers, and she can be cruel to herself, but behind this cruelty Love is for me, I want to know, this tossing person is my favorite, how can I not feel bad? Lianzhou, in the same relationship, the one who is excluded will be tortured to death by fear of hindsight, she can't be so bad .”

Qin Lianzhou understood Qi Xi's fear, but, "She's not bad, so you may end up with nothing."

Qi Xi smiled wryly, "Look, the topic came back before it even started."

Meng Qing is not bad, they have no results, and they have been separated from each other for the rest of their lives, depressed.

Meng Qing made a mess, she opened her eyes and closed her eyes thinking about those 'what ifs', how would she live if something happened to her?

The contradictions of opposites are like a circle, which circles her tightly. If she can't make a gap, she can't face up to Meng Qingrang's deception.

and……

"In the past two years, I boasted that I was deeply affectionate, but in the end I found that I was just moving myself. It seemed that I suddenly couldn't figure out the meaning of my tossing around for the past two years. I was very empty." Qi Xi said in a low voice.

Qin Lianzhou, "The meaning is that your consistent liking will make Meng Qing's persistence in these two years more valuable."

Qi Xi was stunned for a moment, then smiled wryly, "What about me? Who will pay for my sincerity and being forced to act in this bitter scene?"

"Isn't Meng Qingrang paying for the rest of his life enough?" Qin Lianzhou asked back.

Qi Xi was silent.

This payment is definitely enough, but a scar is a scar, it doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt one day, it doesn't exist.

Qin Lianzhou can understand Qi Xi's contradiction - the more he cares, the more deliberate he is, but there is no such thing as the best of both worlds in this world, someone has to be aggrieved if he wants to solve an originally unsolvable problem.

Hesitating for a moment, Qin Lianzhou tapped on the table with her knuckles, reminding Qi Xi to come back to her senses, "Since your grievances can be coaxed by someone, and this person really didn't encounter any 'what if', then you just mean it? No need. It's too loud."

Qin Lianzhou's words were too biased, Qi Xi stared at her and said helplessly, "Which side are you from?"

"Whichever side can make you better, I'm on that side." Qin Lianzhou looked back at Qi Xi, smiling lightly, "On the plane back, I said that I would go back to Fanshi only if I saw you Stand firm here, or send you back to her. Now it seems that the latter should be easier to achieve, so I will naturally speak to Meng Qingrang for the time being."

Qi Xi was stunned, "Lian Zhou..."

"She was discharged from the hospital today, why don't you pick her up?" Qin Lianzhou interrupted with a smile.

Qi Xi's attitude immediately turned cold, "Why should I pick it up?"

Qin Lianzhou raised her eyebrows, "You don't care so much? Then who goes to the hospital to watch after work every day?"

Qi Xi was speechless, "..." She just took a look and asked the nurse about the situation, when did she stay on guard?

"Don't look at me like that. We live across the street. I can hear exactly what time you go home and when you leave every day." Qin Lianzhou added fuel to the fire.

Qi Xi wanted to move immediately.

"By the way, will you go to the team building in the next two days?" Qin Lianzhou asked.

Qi Xi didn't even think about it, "Definitely go, you can't miss the first group activity."

Qin Lianzhou, "Saturday is your birthday, Tiantian and the others want to make something exciting for you."

Qi Xi, "...don't buy cakes, I don't like cakes."

----

When Qi Xi rushed to the hospital, it was just after noon, most of the patients were still taking a nap, the corridor was so quiet, and even light footsteps would appear abrupt, Qi Xi couldn't hold down at all, so that when he entered the ward, he sat down Meng Qingrang who was on the sofa immediately heard the sound and looked towards her, with joy visible to the naked eye.

Qi Xi just glanced at each other and then lowered his eyes to avoid it. While closing the door and walking in, he said, "Where's Zhou Mai?"

Meng Qingrang sat up, put his hands on his lap, and looked very obedient, and when he spoke, his tone was the same, "After completing the discharge procedures, I will leave."

Qi Xi raised her head, "Leave the boss alone?"

Meng Qingrang, "I let her go first."

Qi Xi didn't speak, waiting for Meng Qingrang's next words.

Meng Qingrang stared at Qi Xi intently, "I want to stay and wait for you"

Qi Xi paused, and her voice became low, "I didn't say I would come."

Meng Qingrang, "I can't say no."

"..." It seems that the body has really recovered, and he has the strength to fight with her, excellent.

Qi Xi walked over with a cold face, looked around briefly, and said, "Zhou Mai finished all the things?"

Meng Qingrang got up and took a step forward, "It's over."

"Yeah." Qi Xi responded, hooking his fingers back, and took the car keys on his fingertips into his hands, "Then let's go."

"Okay." Meng Qingrang was ridiculously obedient.

Qi Xi couldn't help but look at her, her peaceful expression didn't change, that is, her eyes were more like chasing people than before.

Qi Xi didn't say anything, turned around and walked out.

Walking to the door, he turned around abruptly, quickly looked at Meng Qingrang from head to toe, and asked her, "Are you leaving like this?"

Meng Qingrang lowered his head to confirm his attire. He didn't think there was anything wrong, but he still asked Qi Xi seriously, "How should I go?"

Qi Xi showed displeasure, "Do you know what time it is outside?"

Meng Qingrang pursed her lips and said nothing.

Today, it seems to be below zero.

She was wearing only a pair of trousers, a shirt, and a mid-length coat over it.

……

Meng Qingrang's extraordinarily 'sensible' reaction made Qi Xi sulky.

What is this called?

Knowingly committing a crime?Committed and not corrected?Changing but not constant?

Do you still think that you are in your twenties and in good health?

Row.

It works!

Qi Xi untied her scarf two or three times, walked up to Meng Qingrang, wrapped it around her neck roughly a few times, then turned her head and left.

The whole process was too fast, before Meng Qingrang could react too much, he breathed out and was blocked by the scarf, feeling so hot that he took a while to sort out the situation - Xixi was angry because she wore less clothes.

In an instant, Meng Qingrang's panic from waiting for Qi Xi at ten o'clock until now found a foothold, and landed softly on his heart, was bounced up, and then kept floating in the air and bumping around.

It was very light, but it still made her heart beat much faster than before.

This feeling is not uncomfortable at all, that is, Xixi was angry and put the scarf on her too high, and it was pressed against her nose, and her breath hit her, and she was so wet that she didn't feel good.

Meng Qingrang raised her head and glanced at Qi Xi, she was leaving, and she probably wouldn't look back.

So, Meng Qingrang quietly raised his hand, trying to press the scarf down a little.

Before I touched her, I saw Qi Xi suddenly turn around at the door, staring at her expressionlessly and said, "Try moving."
