Chapter 1057: little girl grows up
Chapter 1057 The little girl has grown up
Zhou’s mother wanted to persuade her again, but she knew it was useless, so she had no choice but to sigh and walk away.
People were coming and going in the big square in front of the shopping mall. The uniformed security guard drove Xia Ling away: "Little girl, you can't wash things in this fountain. Where are your adults? Go to the side and wait for your adults."
Xia Ling bit her lip and staggered away.
Having just touched the cold water, her body was becoming more and more uncomfortable, her mind was dizzy, and she was a little dizzy under the dazzling sunlight. Walking in the crowd, she was surrounded by white-collar office workers walking in a hurry. Occasionally, a few children passed by with their parents laughing, stopped and looked back at her curiously.
She was alone, her dress was stained with black marks, and she had been hastily washed in the fountain water, which made her look even more miserable. She lowered her head and walked down a quiet alley. She could no longer walk under a mottled red brick wall, so she sat down with her back against the wall and took a rest. Just stop and go, always moving in the direction of the training camp.
From morning to noon, and sometimes from noon to afternoon.
The blisters on my feet were broken and bleeding. It was very painful.
Xia Ling didn't know why she persisted. According to the situation, school should be over when she reaches the training camp. But she just didn't want to give up, or in other words, once she gave up, she didn't know where to go... Lowering her head, the small mobile phone in her palm was still quiet. Pei Ziheng didn't call her, not a single one.
Does he...really don't want her anymore?
Xia Ling's eyes gradually gathered tears of grievance, and she sniffed hard to hold back.
My feet had been in unbearable pain from walking for a long time, and my whole body was sore. Suddenly, I accidentally fell to the ground.
"Yeah!" She called out in a low voice, climbed up with difficulty, and moved to sit in front of a big tree by the roadside. The skin on his elbows and knees was scratched, and spots of blood oozed out. She refrained from crying, lowered her head, and licked her wounds like a small animal, feeling a little at a loss. This fall seemed to have taken away all her strength, and she could no longer walk. She sat under the big tree for a long time without regaining consciousness.
Pei Ziheng was restless in the study.
Today, he canceled all his trips and paid attention to her news all the time.
He warned himself not to worry about her, but the financial reports and project plans that he could read in an instant now turned into unknown characters, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't calm down.
"Sir," Zhou Ma knocked on the door and brought him news about Xia Ling, "Miss fell down in the alley at the end of Jiuhua Street. Her hands and feet were all torn and bleeding. She didn't have the strength to walk for a long time."
Pei Ziheng dropped the documents in his hand on the table.
She hasn't eaten or drank a sip of water all day. Why is this child so stubborn?
"Sir, please don't get angry with Miss anymore," Zhou Ma earnestly advised, "She is still a child, what does she know? You have seen the world, you are older than her, and you are a man, so you should let her ”
Pei Ziheng’s voice was cold: “Don’t worry.”
“Sir!” Zhou’s mother was anxious, “Miss is still sick!”
“Get out.” Pei Ziheng picked up the official document again.
The study door was closed for an unknown number of times, and Zhou Ma had no choice but to retreat. Pei Ziheng couldn't read the official document, so he simply put it down again and stared at the setting sun outside the window in trance.
What if she still refuses to come back until nightfall?
A kind of uneasiness suddenly arose in his heart, empty and inexplicable... "As long as she admits her mistake, it will be fine." He whispered to himself.
The setting sun became more and more brilliant, and the whole city was shrouded in the brilliance of the sunset. Half an hour passed and she still didn't call. Pei Ziheng lowered his eyes and looked at the phone. This time, he said to himself: "Xiao Ling, come back."
There is no need for her to admit her mistake.
As long as she dials this number and calls "Brother Pei," he will definitely pick her up as soon as possible, take her home, and take care of her with the best of everything.
However, the phone never rang.
Xia Ling didn't know how long she sat under the tree. Seeing the sky getting darker and the sunset glowing, she knew she couldn't stay here any longer. Drowsily, she stood up holding on to the tree trunk. When she lowered her head inadvertently, she was startled - there was a pool of dark red blood on the ground where she had just been sitting.
She... was injured?
She reached out to touch behind herself, but found nothing. Her dress was wet and her hands were covered in blood.
She looked at the blood on her hands and was frightened. What happened to her? I lost so much blood all of a sudden. Is the fever more serious? Or have other diseases? Will she... die?
Under the setting sun, the little girl looked pale and stood there at a loss.
Zhou's mother pushed Pei Ziheng's study away again: "Sir! It's not good! Miss, she, she, she..." She gasped and reported something very incoherently.
Pei Ziheng stood up suddenly and grabbed Zhou's mother: "Speak clearly! What happened to Xiao Ling?!"
Ma Zhou was in pain from being caught by him, but she was very happy in her heart. Hum, she knew that he would not lose face and care about the young lady without scaring the husband. On the surface, he pretended to be anxious: "The lady was hurt somewhere, and she bled a lot. It was too dark, and the housekeeper stood too far away to see clearly, but the lady was so frightened that her face changed."
Before Zhou Ma could finish her words, Pei Ziheng rushed out like the wind.
Zhou's mother looked at his hurried away figure, smiled slowly, and called the housekeeper: "That's it. Sir is on his way to you. Please take good care of the lady. The lady has probably never learned about menstrual periods before. That’s why I’m scared like this. The little girl is going to grow up, it’s just menarche, it’s not a big deal.”
Zhou’s mother put down the phone and went to clean the house happily.
The setting sun shines through the treetops on Xia Ling's body and the small pool of blood. Xia Ling was still staring at the small pool of blood, her face getting paler and paler. In just a few moments, countless thoughts had gone through her mind - if she got seriously ill, she wouldn't be able to become a big star, and she would have failed to live up to Brother Pei's expectations. what to do? What about Xiao Yu? The cold wind blew on her body, causing her to feel chilly. She was shaky and grief-stricken.
Pei Ziheng's car stopped on the opposite side of the road. Through the car window, the first thing he saw was the fragile and desperate eyes of the little girl under the tree. He didn't have time to close the car door, so he walked through the red light dangerously and came to her side. He grabbed her thin arm and said, "How are you? Where are you injured?"
The familiar voice made Xia Ling's heart skip a beat.
She looked up and saw the young man standing in front of her. His tall figure looked like a **** against the light. She cried immediately: "Brother Pei!" She hugged him desperately and buried her head in his arms.
I spent a whole day driving around today and didn’t arrive at the hotel until 7 o’clock, so I’ll update as soon as possible. . I finally came out of Kanas, where there is no bathroom! Cry and scatter flowers. . So, I’m going to eat now. I need to take a good rest tonight, take a shower, wash clothes and so on. I’ll do the second update tonight, and there will be another update after I finish eating and take a shower... You can go to bed first...
