Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

"Hehe, just wait and see."

Jiang Lingxue tilted her head, looked at him with disdain, then turned and walked out of the ward.

Lu Xiaoxiao was still standing there. She suddenly said, "Your relationship with her is so weird."

"A little bit indeed." Lin Cheng smiled helplessly.

..........................................　

Lu Xiaoxiao stayed in the ward. A set of flying chess was laid out on Lin Cheng's bed. Lin Cheng moved his fingers and threw the dice. Xu Wanyue restrained her luck. A few hours passed like this. Lin Cheng occasionally checked his mobile phone. At about five o'clock in the afternoon, there was another knock on the door of the ward.

It was Xu Wanyue who went to open the door, but she had never seen the girl in front of her.

The girl in front of him was wearing a white dress, with her jet-black hair loose, and looked gentle and quiet. She was holding a thermos in her hand. When she saw Xu Wanyue, she was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Excuse me...Is Lin Cheng in this ward?"

"Looking for you." Xu Wanyue welcomed Jiang Li in.

Jiang Li knew about this ward because Lin Cheng mentioned it to her when they were chatting just now. She really wanted to come and see Lin Cheng, and Lin Cheng hesitated but still told her. However, she didn't expect that she even prepared Lin Cheng's dinner and brought it over.

The dinner was very sumptuous, with braised meatballs, stir-fried cabbage, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, and a bowl of corn and pork ribs soup.

However, Lu Xiaoxiao and Xu Wanyue were both quietly looking at Jiang Li, which made Jiang Li a little uneasy. There was no place for her to sit in the ward, so she asked in a low voice, "How is your injury?"

"It's okay, I'll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow."

"Well, that's good." Jiang Li replied in a low voice, and then said softly, "Thank you... for saving me yesterday."

"It's okay. We were going to the city center anyway." Lin Cheng smiled helplessly. Jiang Li seemed to not know what to say. There was silence in the ward for about five or six seconds.

Maybe it’s because Lu Xiaoxiao and Xu Wanyue are not talking now.

After a few seconds, Jiang Li whispered, "Then, you eat first... After you finish, I'll take the thermos bucket back."

"His arm is broken and he can't eat." Lu Xiaoxiao said suddenly from the side.

"I... didn't break."

"He's just holding on. In fact, it hurts so much when he moves his hands. You can consider feeding him." Lu Xiaoxiao added suddenly.

Lin Cheng was speechless. Jiang Li looked at him in confusion and then asked in a low voice, "Who are they..."

"A colleague, not familiar with him. I just heard him report on the progress of the mission." Lu Xiaoxiao's voice was too cold. Jiang Li said "oh" cautiously, then looked at Lin Cheng and said, "Then... shall I feed you?"

"I'm really fine."

"It's okay." Jiang Li's voice was gentle. She picked up the thermos bucket and picked up the spoon to put it to Lin Cheng's mouth. Lin Cheng's eyes were resentful for a moment, but he could only eat obediently. This meal was extremely painful for him. Xu Wanyue sat on the side with headphones on and watched short videos silently. Lu Xiaoxiao pretended to look out the window, but in fact she might be sneering quietly in her heart.

Half an hour later, they finally finished eating. Jiang Li put away the thermos bucket and said softly to Lin Cheng, "Then I'll go home first?"

"Yeah, be careful on the road."

Lin Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but in an instant, Jiang Li suddenly came closer and whispered something in Lin Cheng's ear.

"If you can't sleep at night, you can call me and I'll tell you a story." Her tone was hurried and shy, and her earlobes were slightly pink when she stepped back. Lin Cheng just felt his ears itchy. Jiang Li waved to him gently, "Then I'll leave?"

"Bye-Bye."

Jiang Li walked out of the ward. Lin Cheng lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling. Xu Wanyue continued to watch videos without saying anything. Lu Xiaoxiao continued to look at the sunset outside the window. After hesitating for a second or two, Lin Cheng asked tentatively, "Does anyone want to hear my explanation?"

Xu Wanyue shook her head.

Lu Xiaoxiao was disdainful.

"I can really explain it."

Lu Xiaoxiao turned around, crossed her arms, and looked into his eyes, "Who cares?"

"..."

Lin Cheng was hit hard again.

"I'm a patient, a patient. I'm covered in wounds and you still want to hurt me." Lin Cheng was really about to cry.

"You were the one who hurt me first." Lu Xiaoxiao stared at him straight in the eyes.

"Do you want a kiss too?"

"I don't want to be bitten by a dog." Lu Xiaoxiao sneered.

"..."

It turns out that women are fickle creatures. She was still saying she loved you a few hours ago.

Lin Cheng reached out and poked Xu Wanyue's slender waist. Xu Wanyue took off her headphones and came back to her senses from the short video. Lin Cheng looked at her, "Do you want to hear my explanation?"

Xu Wanyue shook her head. "No need to explain."

"Does it mean that you believe that she and I are innocent?"

"No." Xu Wanyue shook her head and answered innocently, "You have been involved with many girls."

Lin Cheng felt that he was about to die.

"Who am I involved with?" Lin Cheng began to ask Xu Wanyue.

Xu Wanyue stretched out her fingers and started to crack them, "Xiaoxiao."

Lin Cheng nodded, "I admit this."

Lu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him.

"Lychee." Xu Wanyue said again.

"Me and Litchi...I recognize it too."

...I could have denied it, but after being stepped on by Lizhi's white silk feet last month, I had no choice but to admit it.

"Jiang Lingxue."

"I think."

I have to admit it. I could have denied it and said it was all in the past, but I did it again at home a few days ago and was caught by Xu Wanyue.

"Grape."

"Grape and I..." Lin Cheng was about to explain, but Xu Wanyue stared at him tenderly, "You and Grape slept together the night before last. Did nothing happen?"

"We just took a shower together...

"Oh, so we just took a bath together." Xu Wanyue emphasized the word 'together'.

Lin Cheng lowered his head in frustration, "I admit it."

Xu Wanyue looked at him gently, "If there are no other names among the four people I mentioned just now, I can barely understand that you are indeed not involved with many girls. Lin Cheng, as long as you say there are no more, I will believe you."

But there was a name in Lin Cheng's mind that he couldn't say, Lu Lingling.

"I……"

Lin Cheng had no words to say at this moment, so he could only bow his head and said, "Okay, but Jiang Li and I really have nothing to do with each other."

"But Xiaoxiao just sent me a message saying that you asked her to send you pictures of herself in underwear."

Lin Cheng widened his eyes and looked at Lu Xiaoxiao. Lu Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and looked at him with a playful look, "You can't say it?"

"It all stems from a wonderful misunderstanding..." Lin Cheng took out his mobile phone, opened the chat history between him and Jiang Li, and started from the sentence "Look at the white silk".

The story is over.

Xu Wanyue lowered her head and continued to watch short videos.

Lu Xiaoxiao rubbed her stomach and said, "I'm hungry. Let's go eat, Yueyue."

"Yeah." Xu Wanyue stood up.

"Hey, pay attention to me... pay attention to me..."

Xu Wanyue reached out and touched Lin Cheng's head, "Okay, okay, we'll come back to accompany you after dinner."

They walked out of the ward hand in hand.

146 I will be naughty next time

In the hospital cafeteria.

Xu Wanyue and Lu Xiaoxiao bought some food. They sat face to face, neither speaking a word. They ate in silence with their heads down.

Xu Wanyue didn’t know what to say, and Lu Xiaoxiao didn’t know either.

They knew each other much earlier than Lin Cheng. They knew each other a year ago. Although they were not in the same Arbiter team, they were indeed good friends with a very close relationship. At first, Xu Wanyue had just entered the alliance and knew nothing. The intensive care unit where her sister is currently staying was arranged by Lu Xiaoxiao.

Xu Wanyue always felt as if she should say something. She hesitated several times, raised her head and lowered it again, and had to eat in silence. After a long while, she heard Lu Xiaoxiao also cautiously called, "Yueyue."

"Hmm?" Xu Wanyue raised her head.

"Do you like him? I don't mean anything else, I just... want to know." Lu Xiaoxiao's voice was very gentle.

Xu Wanyue thought seriously for several seconds and answered in a low voice, "I think... I like him, right? But I always feel like he is very far away from me."

"A little, or a lot?"

Xu Wanyue smiled awkwardly and muttered quietly, "Actually, I think that when it comes to liking someone, there is no distinction between a little and a lot. Just... as long as I like someone, I definitely like all of him. It's just that sometimes I really can't explain it. I always feel that... in fact, he doesn't like me that much. I'm always worried about gains and losses. Sometimes I always want to just ignore him, but when he comes up to me, I can't help but coax him."

"He is completely different in front of you and in front of me."

"Maybe it's because you feel it's embarrassing to act like a spoiled child in front of Xiaoxiao?" Xu Wanyue chuckled.

"behave in a spoiled manner?"

"I'm just acting coquettishly, just like a child." Xu Wanyue's eyes were bright.

Lu Xiaoxiao was silent for a while, "So do you think what Jiang Lingxue said today was correct?"

After a moment, Xu Wanyue shook her head.

"What's wrong?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked.

"It's not that I'm wrong, I just think... those words are so complicated. They think that liking someone is so complicated. I think... if you like someone, you like them. If you don't like someone, you don't like them. There's no such thing as you like me and I don't like you. If you like each other, then stay together. If you don't like each other anymore, then break up."

Lu Xiaoxiao seemed to understand suddenly.

This is what Xu Wanyue would say. The reason why she and Xu Wanyue can become good friends is because Xu Wanyue is very pure and never thinks things are complicated.

"Why did Xiaoxiao fall in love with him?"

Probably because the topic was opened, Xu Wanyue no longer felt so embarrassed, so she asked carefully. Lu Xiaoxiao hesitated for a while, "I can't tell, maybe it's because he is very powerful, or I think he understands a lot more than me, or it may be because I think that guy is very gentle, and he has the qualities that I have always envied and wanted, and he is also good-looking..."

Lu Xiaoxiao's mind inexplicably flashed back to everything that happened on the bed sheets late at night. Damn it, why did she think of this kind of thing at this time? She subconsciously closed her legs tightly.

"It seems to be true." Xu Wanyue nodded slightly.

"Then let's compete fairly." Lu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and suddenly felt the burden on her shoulders lighten a lot.

On one side is the man she likes, and on the other side is her best friend. She always felt particularly awkward before. Just now when she saw Lin Cheng acting coquettishly and asking Xu Wanyue for a kiss in the ward, she always felt that the feeling in her heart was very, very strange. She couldn't say she was angry, but it was just... awkward.

But if the person who kissed him was Jiang Lingxue, Lu Xiaoxiao felt that she would be very angry.

Xu Wanyue suddenly burst out laughing. After a moment, she reacted and explained hastily, "No, I don't mean anything else, it's just... I suddenly felt that this sentence was very strange."

It was indeed very strange. Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh when she thought of this.

"Maybe one day we will lose contact with him?" Xu Wanyue murmured softly.

"Why?" Lu Xiaoxiao didn't understand.

"I can't really explain it, because I am the kind of person who doesn't care about a lot of things. It doesn't matter if he likes me or not. I don't want to fight for it. I always feel so tired and troublesome. The enthusiasm will disappear one day. When that day comes that he doesn't like me, I will gradually get used to not liking him."

Xu Wanyue's voice was very gentle, "Anyway, I still have my sister who is always with me."

..........................................

Lu Xiaoxiao and Xu Wanyue returned to the ward half an hour later. Lin Cheng, who was alone in the ward, was watching TV with lifeless eyes. It was dark outside the window. Lin Cheng looked at them and asked, "You guys are back?"

"I'm full." Lu Xiaoxiao sat on the bed, but her next voice was a bit weird, "Your Majesty, do you want Xiaoxiao to accompany you tonight? Or Yueyue?"

"Hmm? Do I still have a choice?"

"Yes, it is."

"Why don't we sleep together? There must be a teacher among three people."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for choosing the hidden option. Yueyue, let's go home."

Xu Wanyue stood up and waved at Lin Cheng.
