Chapter 8
The day passed, and it was already afternoon.
The woman was still sleepy, a dream just broke into her mind quietly.
It was a sea of fiery red flowers, as if it was watered with blood all over the place to get such dazzling colors.The sky was dyed red, and the faint mist enveloped the flowers, like a dream, as beautiful as a fairyland on earth.
A cool and good voice sounded beside him: "Did you see it? This is me."
Who are you……
As if remembering something, she suddenly trembled, as if seeing something extremely terrifying.She has seen many bloody and hellish situations before, but she has never felt such fear.From head to toe, it was like entering an ice cellar, and it was so cold that people couldn't help shivering.
no...it's not true...
"This is the truth, you misunderstood me, that's all." The owner of the voice approached slowly, with long hair like ink, and a white skirt swaying, like a white lotus blooming in the sea of fire, so beautiful that it is not like a woman in the world, It seems that the next moment will be like a white butterfly fluttering its wings, flying away.
At this moment, this situation and this scene are as terrifying as the evil ghost Shura.
That alluring beauty wore a cold smile, like thousands of stars falling into the mortal world.The scorching sun stained her fair cheeks with a cherry color, and her eyes locked her. The color inside was cold and clear, indifferent and deep, making people completely unpredictable, and no matter what, it was impossible to believe that the life stained on her hands was worse than her own. , a killer, and many more.
Xiao Xinran... tell me, you didn't do these things...
"I did it."
I am going to kill you……
"I never planned to live through today."
You will regret this……
"I do not know."
I will make you regret it!
The mood fluctuated violently, maybe the next scene was too cruel, and the dream collapsed instantly.She opened her eyes suddenly, cold sweat soaked her whole body.
The eyes that have always been as quiet as ink are full of waves, hatred, surprise, bewilderment, grief, fear... In this life, except for this moment, she has never had such a messy time.
Her chest rose and fell violently, she gasped for a while, and her eyes gradually became clear.
just a dream...
Some people dream about what they think in the daytime, some people dream and hope for all kinds of things, but there are those who don't want to live in their dreams, even dreaming is dreaming of reality.
But it is still the reality that cannot be recalled.
The woman wiped the cold sweat off her forehead calmly, and sat up with support.
The left half of her body was terribly numb due to the serious injury. She tried to move, but found it was futile. She could only use her right hand to reach for the thermos cup on the table, and poured a few mouthfuls of water into it.
The water was still warm, and from her long-dried lips and tongue slipped down the esophagus, diluting the blood and bitterness in her mouth a lot.She put down the water glass, but suddenly remembered something, and turned to look at the air conditioner.
The air conditioner has been turned off, the temperature in the bedroom is just right, and that person took good care of her.
That person... who has been taking care of her?
She remembered holding the man's hand the last time she regained consciousness.It was a delicate and even hand, with coolness and fragrance.At that time, she wanted to open her eyes to see that person, but that person walked fast. When she opened her eyes with difficulty, she could only see a little trace of her existence.
Is it Xiao Xinran?Is she taking care of herself?
……how is this possible.
After thinking about it, I got a severe headache, so I had no choice but to stop thinking about it and get out of bed with the quilt lifted.
There was a slight sound at the door, and with a click, the door was pushed open from the outside.
She was a little nervous suddenly, and subconsciously took a step forward to look at the person who walked in.
...It's Su Yu.
Unable to tell whether it was luck or disappointment, she lowered her eyes and took back the eager step.
"Are you awake? How do you feel?" Su Yu stepped forward and shook her hand very naturally, "Well, it's not cold anymore. Seeing that you seem to be cold in the morning, I turned on the air conditioner for a while."
The woman glanced at her, then at the hand she was holding, and was suddenly a little annoyed, but she still said flatly, "Thank you."
Su Yu handed her the glass filled with brown liquid: "Drink the medicine."
She took it and drank it down.After a pause, he asked her, "Where is Xiao Xinran?"
"Mr. Xiao?" Su Yu smiled, "Of course he is in the company."
In the company……
As soon as she put the glass on the table, she was about to go to the bathroom.Su Yu quickly stopped her: "You can't take a bath now, the wound will be infected."
Her eyes slipped, and her eyes fell on Su Yu's hand holding her arm.Su Yu was stunned by her look, so she withdrew her hand and stood awkwardly.
"Miss Su," she called out suddenly, "Please contact Xiao Xinran for me, I want to see her, now."
When receiving Su Yu's call, Xiao Xinran was dealing with work matters in the office.Xiao Kui left a lot of messes, and she had to spend more effort to make up for it, so as to create a new era that belonged to her.
After reading a document for a long time without any progress, it was a time when I was a little bored.She picked up the phone and remained silent for a while, waiting for the person on the other end to report the situation.
"President Xiao," Su Yu's voice was very low, "She said she wanted to see you."
After a moment's reflection on who "she" Su Yu was talking about, Xiao Xinran frowned, put the pen in her hand on the table, and said coldly, "Tell her, I'm not free."
"Her condition is not good. I said those things according to your instructions, and she seems...very angry." Su Yu didn't understand the origin of it, so she reported it truthfully.
Everything was in her expectation, but she was a little at a loss.Suddenly there was a slight sound from the phone, as if someone had picked it up, followed by a woman's voice with no emotion: "Xiao Xinran."
She trembled slightly, straightened up from the wide seat, subconsciously grasped the armrest, and did not speak.
"I heard from Ms. Su that I need to make an appointment to see you now. I don't know when you will be free." The woman's voice was very calm, with her usual indifference, as if she was chatting with others normally and casually, without the slightest reaction she should have at this time .
Could it be... Where did she show her flaws, and the woman became suspicious?
"What's the matter, let's talk about it tonight." She deliberately suppressed her nervousness and boredom, and kept the same calm voice back to her, but her heart was full of waves.
"Okay." It was rare for the woman not to embarrass her, so she agreed.
"You..." She subconsciously wanted to ask the woman how her wound was and how her body was. She was about to speak, but was stopped by her last rationality.
The woman didn't make a sound, and seemed to be waiting for her next words.
She took a deep breath and said, "Give Su Yu the phone number, I'll call her if I have something to do."
After explaining a few more words to Su Yu, she hung up the phone, propped her forehead wearily, and closed her eyes.
The woman's attitude was a little weird, and she couldn't figure out why.She did take a wrong step this morning, inadvertently letting out care that shouldn't have appeared.Afterwards, she felt uneasy in retrospect, so she asked An Lin to arrange for Su Yu to remedy the situation. There should be nothing wrong with this method.
Or, did she find out something from the person in the elevator, or what happened last night?
She couldn't figure it out.Looking back carefully, every step of her has been carefully arranged, not to mention the complete control and use of the woman's character, only relying on those interlocking and flawless chains of evidence, she can be confident that she will not be caught. see through.
The only ones out of her control are Cang Yun and Xiao Kui, but they have no reason to expose all this to women.She took all the scapegoat for them, and the woman's revenge would not find them. For them, it was a huge trouble.
So, what was it that made all this go beyond her expectations?
She had a severe headache, so she subconsciously rubbed the center of her eyebrows with her right hand.The left hand touched the water glass by the table, but suddenly touched the gunshot wound on the tiger's mouth, the hand trembled, and the glass fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
The door was quickly pushed open, and An Lin walked in quickly: "Mr. Xiao?"
The headache got worse and worse, making people want to take a knife and pass through it from left to right, just to have a good time.Xiao Xinran put more strength on the right hand that supported her forehead, her arm trembled slightly due to the exertion, and she resisted making a sound.
Seeing that she seemed to be very uncomfortable, An Lin hurried over to check, but he didn't dare to touch her lightly, so he could only whisper in her ear and ask, "President Xiao, what's wrong with you?"
She was still powerless to speak, An Lin hesitated for a moment, carefully supported her shoulders, turned her body sideways, leaned over and hugged her.
There is a rest room in her office, which is usually used for lunch break.An Lin carried her in, put her gently on the bed, poured warm water, and fed her painkillers.
The effect of the medicine hadn't taken effect yet, she still seemed to be in severe pain, and she curled up, trembling slightly.
"Mr. Xiao, do you want to go to the hospital? Or... call Dean Su?" An Lin asked softly, wiping the cold sweat from her forehead.
She reluctantly shook her head, remained silent for a while, and gradually calmed down, then said, "Help me up."
An Lin hugged her thin shoulders and slowly helped her up.She supported his arm and got up, her voice full of exhaustion: "Take me home."
