Chapter 14 Don't Be Afraid, Third Brother Is Here

His gaze slowly shifted from the phone pendant to its current owner.

Even though she was prepared in her heart, when she saw Qin Yu's sleeping face, Lin Xi's heart still couldn't stop beating wildly.

How could he be here?

Lin Xi was full of question marks.

When the flight attendant passed by, she deliberately glanced at her.Seeing that she was awake, he turned his head and touched Qin Yu's shoulder.Lin Xi didn't even think about it, subconsciously stopped: "Wait..."

"Mr. Qin, Miss Lin is awake."

Turning his head, he happened to see Qin Yu open his eyes.

The four eyes met, embarrassment spread silently.

Fortunately, his appearance rate is extremely high these days, Lin Xi has gotten used to it, and there is no unnecessary expression on his face.Be the first to turn your head away and order food with the flight attendant.

After a while, the flight attendant left.Only then did she talk to Qin Yu: "Third brother is really lingering, why is he always following me?"

"Are you sure I'm following you?"

"Then what are you doing in New York?"

The man sat upright, looked ahead, and slowly uttered two words: "Business trip."

Lin Xi: "..."

I really doubt that his excuse is to steal her inspiration.

When she asked in the lounge, he didn't answer her question.

What a hell of a mistake.

Her expression was indescribable, Qin Yu looked at her with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "No?"

Lin Xi was speechless, "It's as long as the third brother is happy."

In the second half of the journey, Lin Xi continued to pretend to be dead after filling her stomach, either sleeping or watching dramas with headphones on, and did not give Qin Yu any chance to talk.

When she was about to land, she who was still taking a nap suddenly frowned, and her ears began to feel uncomfortable.

The tinnitus and clear pain tore her nerves, and dragged her back to a few years ago, that period of nightmare-like past.

She obviously just fell asleep, and when she woke up, everything changed.

The elder brother rushed back to Beijing overnight and appeared in her ward.

Seeing her wake up, my brother excitedly stepped forward to check on her situation.The strange thing is that my brother's lips have been moving, talking to her non-stop.

But she couldn't hear his voice at all, only the rustling sound in her ears, accompanied by a few buzzing sounds, and the pain so clear that her limbs were numb.

Almost instantly, dense cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

Her heartbeat soared at this moment, her eyes were red, she raised her hand helplessly, trying to make a sound.

-

The overwhelming sense of suffocation that was too real made her unable to tell where she was for a while.

"I……"

As soon as he uttered a syllable, Lin Xi took a deep breath of cold air and subconsciously wanted to cover his ears.The right hand trembled and raised, and was suddenly held tightly by a warm palm in mid-air.

She raised her head in bewilderment, and looked at the owner of that hand.

When she saw Qin Yu's concerned and tense eyes, her tense emotions instantly disintegrated, "Third, third brother!"

Like the sea water pouring down, the drowning person with all senses sealed off grabs the life-saving driftwood.

She held the man's hand back hard, and threw herself into his arms uncontrollably.

Lin Xi didn't even realize that in her subconscious mind, Qin Yu was the only one who could save her.

The man on the opposite side opened his arms a long time ago, and took her into his arms first, spraying hot breath on the side of her neck.

"Don't be afraid, Xixi is not afraid, the third brother is here." He kept responding to her, and it was the first time that he didn't resist her calling himself that way.His lips were next to her ear, and Lin Xi could feel that he was talking to her, but the severe tinnitus caused the voice to be heard intermittently.

She tried to calm herself down and listen to his voice seriously, but her suppressed emotions were on the verge of collapse.She desperately grabbed onto his shoulders, grabbing the fabric of his expensive suit until it was wrinkled, "I can't seem to hear clearly again. My ears..."

"Do you still remember what the doctor said at that time? Recall carefully, did he tell you clearly that after a long period of treatment, your ears have recovered? There is no sequelae. Our Xixi's ears were fine six years ago gone."

The man's tone was firm, as if he was there at the time. In an instant, Lin Xi remembered the figure he saw around the corner the day he was discharged from the hospital.

"It's because you're too nervous, don't think about the past. Relax, listen to me, and take a deep breath." Qin Yu's left hand was held tightly by her, and she could only use the other hand to pat her on the back, helping her She is smooth.

Lin Xi's attention was all on what happened on the day she was discharged from the hospital, and she forgot for a moment the tinnitus that was still tormenting her.

After going abroad, she completely cut off contact with China.Even the uncle and aunt only know the country where she is, not the city where she is.

Ever since she hurt her ear, she was temporarily speechless due to the severe blow. Under Qin Yu's guidance, she was already improving.But as soon as things happened later, everything went back to the original point.

Just because she knew that she was more repulsed to see people and hear things before, and was afraid that she would be disturbed, the knot in her heart could not be opened.So my uncle has been helping her keep it secret, and it is impossible to reveal her whereabouts to the outside world.

Even if Qin Yu knew that she was in Boston, how did he know the time and progress of her treatment accurately?

-

Lin Xi was the last one to get off the plane in the first class, followed by Qin Yu.

In the airport lobby, she saw a group of people headed by Assistant Qin Yu within two steps.These people came down before them, and they have been waiting for Qin Yu here.

Judging from this posture, he should really be on a business trip to New York.And she needs to change planes here and separate from Qin Yu.

That's okay, it was quite embarrassing just now.

When she regained her composure just now, she found herself in Qin Yu's arms, and their hands were still holding each other.That picture hit her brain repeatedly, and she didn't dare to look at his face the whole time, and didn't dare to imagine the expression on his face at that time.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xi turned around, grabbed the bag with both hands and hung it in front of her body, she bowed slightly to him, she was really grateful.

When she got up, she still didn't dare to look up into his eyes.Looking down, I suddenly caught a glimpse of the particularly conspicuous folds on his suit jacket...

After realizing that this was the masterpiece he left behind just now, the corner of Lin Xi's mouth twitched slightly, "Third brother, I will invite you to dinner when I return to Beijing. You can go to work, and I will go to transfer."

"Let's see you back in Beijing."

Qin Yu didn't say goodbye to her, but stopped her: "I still have to fly, aren't you afraid of tinnitus?"

"..."

Lin Xi pursed her lower lip and defended herself: "As long as I can fall asleep during take-off and landing, there's no big problem. I'll keep an eye on it, and I'll be fine."

She personally tested that as long as she fell asleep, the accident just now would not happen.

She didn't sleep well this time, she slept too long when taking off.As a result, she couldn't sleep deeply during the second half of the voyage, and her brain was always awake.

"There's no need to change planes, you go with my car."

Lin Xi hummed strangely, "It's not on the way. You're in New York on a business trip, aren't you?"

"I never said my destination was here."

"then you……"

Qin Yu interrupted her and lifted her chin:
"Wherever you go, there is my destination. Can you understand in this way?"
