pamper her

Chapter 155 Qi Pei X Yu Anran: Qi Pei, thank you for loving me
Qi Pei put Yu Anran's coat back on her body to cover the scar.

He stretched his long arm behind her, wrapped around Yu Anran's waist, and hugged her tightly.

Since meeting Yu Anran, Qi Pei has never seen her cry.

She was a stubborn and strong girl, and her emotions were so tightly hidden that he didn't even know what could really make her sad.

But no matter how brave a person is, there is no way to keep his heart calm in the face of this kind of thing.

It was hard for Qi Pei to imagine how that girl, who was only 17 years old at the time, endured pain and fear in the dark and abandoned room.

He kissed Yu Anran's wet eyes, and said softly, "And then?"

Yu Anran lowered her head and played with the buttons on Qi Pei's chest, and opened her lips again: "Then..."

Enduring the pain in her right shoulder, Yu Anran forced herself to spend two nights in the abandoned sports equipment room.

She was drowsy during this period and could not hear anything.

Only the regular chirping of cicadas at night let her know that she was still alive.

Leaning against the wall, she struggled to cover the wound with her clothes to prevent it from bleeding more.

Several times, Yu Anran almost fell down like this in despair.But there was a tight string in her mind, she was thinking maybe someone could come to save her?

For example Xu Wei.

Just before being pulled into the room, she clearly saw him.

On the third day, the sun was shining brightly.

In the afternoon, Xie Wenbo set off from home as usual, planning to go to school to write papers.

He has a five-year-old brother who is at the time of trouble.The noise at home affected his study, so he went to the school classroom to review alone from time to time.

The only way to go to school is Nanlin Road.

When Xie Wenbo was about to walk to the end that day, he saw an old man setting up a stall by the side of the road.

He glanced at it, but didn't pay much attention.

Unexpectedly, the uncle stopped him suddenly and said to him: "Young man, are you also a student of Suzhou No. [-] Middle School?"

"I'm."

"The day before yesterday, a little girl came to my place to buy fairy grass honey. I think she went to Suzhou No. [-] Middle School." The uncle said, "She paid ten yuan, and I didn't have any change at the time, so she said she would come back in two days Buy it. But I didn’t see her coming yesterday, so I’ll give you the money now, if it’s convenient for you, give it to the teacher, and ask the teacher to find a girl in the school so that I can return the money to her.”

The uncle smiled, "I'm a small business, and I can't be greedy for the little girl's advantage, right?"

Before Xie Wenbo understood the amount of information in the words, the uncle directly gave him the money.

He stared at a five-dollar bill and two one-dollar bills in his hand, thinking about it.

The old man said that the person who bought the fairy grass honey the day before yesterday went to Suzhou No. [-] Middle School. If I remember correctly, Yu Anran and Li Qing also went to the school that day besides himself.

"Master, what does that girl look like?"

"You're pretty, thin, with bright eyes." The uncle pointed to his own eyes, and then he remembered something, "That's the one. Two years ago, there was a woman in the neighborhood who cheated on her and committed suicide. That girl seems to be that girl." family's child."

These words made Xie Wenbo very sure that the girl mentioned by the uncle was Yu Anran.

The matter of Yu Anran's family was a big one at the beginning. People in Suzhou passed it on and off, and most of them had heard of it.

Xie Wenbo is also Yu Anran's classmate, so it's hard not to know.

He was walking towards the school holding three banknotes, the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong.

Having been at the same table with Yu Anran for two years, Xie Wenbo can be regarded as knowing her a little bit.

Don't look at Yu Anran's cold appearance at ordinary times, but she is actually very kind-hearted. When a classmate asks her a question, no matter how busy she is, she will stop to talk to him.

Besides, she is a person who keeps her word, sometimes things that are forgotten by the promisee, she will still remember them no matter how long it takes.

So the uncle said that Yu Anran promised to come to buy fairy grass honey the next day, but he didn't come, Xie Wenbo didn't quite believe it.

It's fine if it's someone else, but this person is Yu Anran.

But the uncle has no reason to lie to him.

While thinking about it, Xie Wenbo had already walked to the school gate.

The small door was ajar, but he skillfully pushed it open, glanced inadvertently, but saw a bloodstain beside the door.

The footsteps stopped instantly.

The reason why Xie Wenbo is so keen is because he clearly remembered that when he left the day before yesterday, the door was closed but not locked, and when he opened it, there was nothing beside the door.

A strange feeling welled up in my heart.

He remembered that day when Li Qing hemmed and hawed to tell him to go back quickly, now that he thought about it, it was more like finding an excuse to distract him so that he could do something bad.

Xie Wenbo knew that Yu Anran and Li Qing were at odds, and Li Qing often used herself as an excuse to put pressure on Yu Anran. In Xie Wenbo's heart, Xie Wenbo actually felt a little sorry.

Because there is really nothing between him and Yu Anran, and he just purely regards Yu Anran as a role model for himself to learn from.

Xie Wenbo quickly ran back to the classroom, the classroom was empty, as usual.

He started searching from the first floor again, looking through one by one, but still couldn't find Yu Anran.

Just when he thought he was overthinking, there was a sudden sound in the abandoned sports equipment room not far from the first floor.

He ran over following the sound and saw the door was bolted from the outside.

This equipment room is never locked, because people often go back to the classroom and like to turn in through the back window of the equipment room, and then go through the front door, so as to take a shortcut.

Sure enough, Xie Wenbo opened the door latch, and saw Yu Anran lying on the ground not far from the door, with a small pool of blood beside him, which was almost dry.

It was difficult for Xie Wenbo to find words to describe the visual impact. He only remembered that he was flustered and called the police.

"Xie Wenbo later told me how he found me. I can only say that I was lucky." Yu Anran said.

Qi Pei disagreed, he said: "Yu Anran, you saved yourself."

"Huh?" Yu Anran didn't understand, "How should I say it?"

"If you didn't buy uncle a cup of fairy grass honey because of your kindness, how could Xie Wenbo guess that you broke your promise because you were trapped in school."

Yu Anran never thought that she would be able to get along with "kindness" one day, after all, those are trivial things that she thinks are nothing, and most of the time she does it unintentionally.

Staring at Yu Anran's face, Qi Pei recalled Li Qing's pampered appearance in Xigushan, and even patted Yu Anran's shoulder provocatively.

At that time Yu Anran said that Li Qing had bullied her, but Qi Pei didn't expect this to be the case.

With an irritable "tsk", Qi Pei hugged Yu Anran tightly in his arms, and stroked her back suppressing his emotions.

"What's wrong?" Yu Anran asked him.

Qi Pei didn't speak, he was just thinking, why didn't he really bully Li Qing back then, instead he only threatened a few words without pain.

"You said you saw Xu Wei at the time, so why didn't he help you?"

Yu Anran leaned her chin on Qi Pei's shoulder, and said in a flat tone, "Because he is cowardly, he is a coward."

When Yu Anran woke up again, she was in the hospital.

The wound on the shoulder had been stitched with stitches, and the red clothes on her body had been changed into hospital gowns by the sister nurse.

Just when she was wondering how she was discovered, Xie Wenbo pushed the door open and walked in.

He didn't know what to say, so he asked dryly, "Are you still feeling unwell?"

Yu Anran shook her head.

Xie Wenbo took out the seven yuan from his pocket and handed it to Yu Anran, "The stall owner said he would return it to you."

"Thank you." She said, her voice was different from the usual hoarseness.

Xie Wenbo wanted to ask something else, but someone pushed the door behind him and came in.

This time it was Xu Wei.

"I don't know who to call, but I happened to meet your brother, so I called him over." Xie Wenbo said.

Yu Anran gave a light "um" and said no more.

At that time, Xu Wei had just graduated from Haicheng No. [-] Middle School and was admitted to an undergraduate university in Shanghai.It stands to reason that he should be in Haicheng with his aunt's family now, but he came back for some reason.

Xie Wenbo went out calmly, leaving the siblings behind.

"An'an, are you thirsty?" Xu Wei eagerly sat down on the chair, "I'll pour you a cup of hot water."

"I'm going to college, and I came back to Suzhou to say goodbye to you. I didn't expect this to happen."

Yu Anran didn't answer the question, and cut straight to the point: "When I was dragged into the equipment room by that man, you were in school."

Xu Han stopped pouring water, and smiled awkwardly, "What are you talking about, I just got off the train after I came back from Haicheng..."

"How did Xie Wenbo meet you when you just came back?"

The train station is in the suburbs, so is it possible that Xie Wenbo still has the ability to predict?
Xu Wei silently put down the water glass, a trace of confusion flashed between his brows and eyes.

Yu Anran concentrated her attention, "Why do you just watch like that?"

"... Li Qing said that if I help you, she will tell my dad that I am still in contact with you," Xu Wei said in a softer voice, "You understand, I am not biological, if my dad knows You will definitely end the relationship with me."

"An'an, I just entered university, and I need someone to help me pay the tuition fees, and the consumption level in Shanghai is so high, I can't handle it by myself..."

"The most important thing is that Li Qing told me that she just locked you up for a while to scare you. The next day when the door was closed, I thought you were home... I really didn't expect that she would do anything to you. If she knew Otherwise, I will never let her bully you!"

"You also know that you let her bully me." Yu Anran stared at Xu Wei stubbornly, her tone mixed with disappointment, "Xu Wei, you are not someone else,"

"You are my brother."

Ever since she was a child, Yu Anran has never made any close friends because of her cold temper.

Only Xu Wei, who is about the same age as her, is boring when she is not busy, and often likes to make her happy.

Over time, Yu Anran would tell him everything, including Li Qing, and those who bullied her verbally.

Even if the little uncle moved forcefully, Xu Wei would still secretly associate with her.

But Yu Anran knew that Xu Wei was actually very cowardly in his bones, just like his aunt, he never dared to resist her, and stayed in that house carefully, for fear of being sent back to the orphanage.

Even so, Yu Anran still felt that she should have a certain weight in Xu Wei's heart, but she never thought about it, and still failed to awaken his strength.

"Xu Wei, when I was there, I always thought you would come to save me, but you didn't." Yu Anran said, "Although you said that, you were still afraid in your heart. You were afraid that if something happened, you would be involved. to yourself, right?"

Xu Wei clenched his fist.

"People are often afraid of getting burned, and more often choose to sit on the sidelines and hide their ears. You are also such a person."

Xu Wei did not refute.

"I respect you, everyone has their own choice," Yu Anran smiled palely, "It's just that from now on, you are no longer my brother."

There are only a few people around her, and now the only one left has also left her.But what does she care about what she is used to?
Later, the police came to ask Yu Anran to take notes.

This matter was not complicated, it was typical school violence, and they caught the man very quickly.

Afterwards, Yu Anran heard from people that the man was convicted of intentional wounding and went to jail.

As for Li Qing, Yu Anran only knew that she dropped out of school and never went back to high school. She spent her days in bars and made many social friends.

The school was afraid that this matter would become a big issue, so they suppressed the matter after Li Qing dropped out of school.

Therefore, apart from the parties involved, the only people who knew about this matter were Xie Wenbo and Xu Wei.

From then on, Yu Anran didn't see Li Qing again, until the inn on the west side of the mountain.

"I was reluctant to mention Xu Wei before, because when I mentioned him, I always thought of it."

In Yu Anran's heart, the saddest thing was not that she was bullied, but that the people she trusted didn't help her.

Before the age of 17, Xu Wei was as important as his aunt.

So she couldn't accept that her elder brother, who had loved her since she was a child, left her because of cowardice at a critical moment.

"You said that day that I cherish the butterfly necklace he gave me so much." Yu Anran poked Qi Pei's shoulder, "It's because this necklace is the only thing I took away from Suzhou."

During these years alone in BJ, Yu Anran didn't want to think about the past, this butterfly necklace carried the only little warmth left in her childhood.

Yu Anran is not a free-spirited and open-minded person, even if she chooses not to associate with her aunt and Xu Wei, she will still recall the way her aunt smiled and watched her play with Xu Wei in Qiulin Lane.

"But the necklace has been lost." Qi Pei said.

Yu Anran's tone was light: "Maybe God also wants me to move forward."

Qi Pei touched her empty neck, "Then I'll give you a new one next time."

Yu Anran returned to the topic: "The wound on my shoulder was deep and left an ugly scar. After graduation, I found a tattoo parlor and wanted to get something tattooed to cover it."

Qi Pei lowered his head and gently lifted off the clothes on her right shoulder, and the platycodon flower came into his eyes again.

"Tattoos can't be anesthetic, so my place hurts again." Yu Anran covered it with her hand, rubbing it lightly.

Everything seems to be connected.

Meeting Li Qing in Xigushan, Yu Anran's reaction was so great.

Later, when she saw Qi Sheng's wound, her expression was also very strange.

She once told Qi Pei in no man's land that she wanted to die for a while in high school.

He didn't think about it that much at the time, he simply thought that Yu Anran just couldn't let go of the people around him leaving.

Also, ptsd on broken glass.

Yu Anran closed her eyes, pretending to be relaxed and half-joking: "Boss Pei, isn't my story exciting?"

Qi Pei was not in the mood to joke with her, he asked: "Why do you have platycodon flowers?"

"The tattoo artist is a sister in her twenties. I wanted to get a flower tattoo, so she found a whole book of patterns for me to choose, and each flower was marked with a flower language."

Yu Anran straightened up, and looked at Qi Pei face to face: "Do you know what the flower language of bellflower is?"

"do not know."

"It's hopeless love."

"."

"I thought it was suitable for me, so I got the tattoo," she said.

At the beginning, the sister tattoo artist recommended her to get a tulip tattoo, but Yu Anran was not willing.

Because she feels that no one can live as sincerely, enthusiastically and freely as Tulip.

I will not be.

So when I went to Nanlan and saw the Tulip Inn, Yu Anran was actually very disapproving.

It's just that she didn't expect that someone really lived like this.

This person is Qi Pei.

He is different from everyone I have ever met. He is warm, sincere, and unreserved. He will give everything when he falls in love with someone, and melt Yu Anran's heart that has been hopeless for a long time with his warmth.

When she agreed to Qi Pei's confession, Qi Pei said that she was very lucky.But Yu Anran felt that she was the lucky one.

Because it seems that since then, she has really slowly welcomed the new students.

"Qi Pei, this is my past."

My bad past, the hurdles I can't get over, the Suzhou I hate.I hold everything back from you because I don't believe in love.

Qi Pei didn't speak, his Adam's apple rolled slightly.

He possessed himself, like a devout believer, and kissed the platycodon flower on Yu Anran's right shoulder.

"But I love you," he said in a low voice, "for your past, your present, and your future."

"I love everything about you," he said.

Yu Anran looked out the window, it seemed that it was almost midnight, and the fireworks were constantly blooming in the sky above BJ City, extremely bright.

"Qi Pei, thank you for loving me."

In the new year, let's walk together hand in hand.
