Ming got in the car, too.
He drove me away.
I was in the passenger seat and through the right rear-view mirror I saw Sean standing still.
The car stopped at the parking space downstairs of Ming’s house. He got off first and opened the door
for me.
He reached for me with one hand. “Be careful.”
“Thank you.” I put my hand on Ming’s and stood up.
With Ming’s help, I limped into the elevator.
In the elevator, I told Ming about the recent project.
Because my clothes were all wet. When we got to the door, Ming took out the key to my room and
asked me, “you have your old clothes in your house. I’ll bring one for you. You take a bath in my
house.”
Bathing was an awkward and special thing. I leaned against the door of my house. “I can go back to my
house and take a bath first, and then I’ll go to your house and let you check my foot.”
As I said that, I wanted to get the key.
Ming hid the key behind him, smiled and shook his head. “I’m sorry, you can’t.”
“Why?”
“You hurt your foot so I don’t trust you to bathe alone.” Ming said. He took out the key to open my
house for me. He went to change his shoes first and helped me to take my slippers. He said, “don’t
worry, I won’t peek when you bathe.”
His words made me blush.
Ming brought me a chair and set it aside for me to sit down. I realized he was going to change my
shoes, and I said, “I’ll do it.”
“It’s okay. I’ll do it.”
He put his hand on my hand and stopped me.
He changed my slippers for me.
When I entered my house, I found that although I hadn’t come back in five years, this house was not
old.
The whole room was spotless.
The bed was covered with beige cartoon bedding, which was new at a glance.
I pointed to the bedding. “This is...”
“Every month, I will find someone to clean and change the bedding. Because the previous bedding was
washed too many times, it broke, so I bought a new one for you.” After Ming finished, he looked at me
and asked in a gentle voice, “do you like it?”
Looking at the cute kitten head on the bedding, I couldn’t help smiling and nodding, “yes, but I’m thirty.
If I use this pattern, will I be laughed at?”
“Why?” Ming came up to me and reached out and touched my hair. He looked at me with gentle and
firm eyes and said, “you are always a child in front of me, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t grow up.”
His tone was serious and not perfunctory at all.
I looked at him and felt somehow secure.
I went to my room alone and looked at my clothes five years ago.
In recent years, I had learned from Murray and got in touch with some historical knowledge. I liked
classical clothes more and more. They were comfortable to wear and made me elegant.
Murray didn’t like it at first, but he gradually liked it under my influence.
I hadn’t worn these clothes in the wardrobe for a long time.
I casually took out a T-shirt and skirt and a set of underwear.
Besides these, I also took out a bath towel.
When I went to the bathroom to get the bath towel, I found that there were all kinds of skin care
products on the wash basin, which were brand new.
And there was shampoo on the side shelf.
I couldn’t help being stunned.
“Ming, these skin care products...” I shouted out.
Ming knew that I had finished taking things, so he came in from outside. When he saw the skincare
products I pointed to, he was not surprised and explained, “I’ve been thinking about when you might
come back to live, so I’ve been helping you buy skincare products, but I don’t understand women’s
things. The nurses in the hospital recommended them to me.”
“Thank you.”
Seeing this, my heart was not only touched, but also warm.
Ming was really thoughtful.
He quickly explained to me, “these are the new ones I bought at the beginning of this year. The
previous ones have expired.”
“Thank you.” Except for thank you, I really didn’t know what to say.
I took some basic skincare products, as well as shampoo, conditioner and body wash for bathing, and
then Ming and I went back to his home.
Ming’s room was as clean as I saw it years ago.
I took a quick bath and put on my clothes. When I wiped my hair and came out, there were several
bottles on the tea table. Ming was looking at one of them.
When he saw me, he immediately put down the book in his hand and walked quickly to my side. He
helped me to sit on the sofa and said gently, “the medicine at home is not complete. I’ll help you to see
it. I’ll go out and buy it later.”
Ming half knelt in front of me and held my left foot in his hands and gave me a slight twist.
I felt intense pain and couldn’t help but breathe.
Ming immediately reduced his strength and frowned. “You didn’t hurt the bone, but I’d better go out and
buy a can of spray. You wait for me.”
He got up and went out.
When he was about to leave, he told me, “don’t move.”
“OK.”
I nodded.
After Ming went out, I didn’t move. I sat on the sofa and looked around.
His house was as clean as ever.
There was nothing but some medical books.
There was not even a bolster on the sofa.
I was going to buy him one!
I limped to my bag and took out my cell phone. I found a cute cat face bolster on the Internet and left
Ming’s address and phone number.
No sooner had I placed an order than there was a knock at the door.
My first reaction was to think Ming was back. I didn’t think too much and limped to the door.
As I opened the door, I laughed at him, “did you forget to take...”
I didn’t finish the sentence.
At the door, it was Sean!
Behind him was another man with a white medicine chest in his hand, and I realized that he was the
doctor Sean had found for me.
Sean was as stunned as I was.
He lowered his eyes. He stared at my clothes coldly and his face seemed to be coated with thin ice.
I reacted and tried to close the door, but he reacted faster than I did!
He grabbed the door with one hand and the doorframe with the other. He said to the doctor behind him,
“you wait outside for a while.”
“OK.”
The doctor took a step back as he spoke.
Sean stepped into the room and directly hit me at the door!
I fell straight back!
He closed the door and jumped at me. By the time I reacted, his face was already close to me.
“You...”
As soon as I wanted to speak, he pressed down and kissed me on the lips.
