Chapter 123 What a Male Demon
"Hey, sister."
Xie Zeyu was very good at creating an atmosphere. He jumped out and put his hand on Xie Jinghong's shoulder, and asked like a caring older brother:
"What's the matter? Is the sports car too noisy? I told you to drive the G-Class I gave you. Although the sports car has good sound insulation, it's still a sports car after all. It's not as comfortable as a G-Class, right? Why don't you try my G-Class tomorrow?"
Xie Zeyu was like a chatterbox, talking non-stop.
Xie Jinghong narrowed his eyes, his smile barely visible as he said, "Okay, Third Brother."
Xie Zeyu was flattered and looked at Xie Ci'nan provocatively.
Xie Ci'nan: ...
"Jinghong, are you very busy today? If you are too tired, why don't you go upstairs and take a nap?"
Xie Yongcong also came over to talk.
"Yeah, baby, are you tired? I'll have someone run the bath water for you so you can take a nice soak."
Having said that, Lu Wenyin asked the row of servants to go to work.
"It's okay, Mom. I just..."
She turned to look at Xie Ci Nan, "Nini is leaving tomorrow. I'm just feeling a little weird."
Xie Ci Nan was slightly stunned.
"Is Ms. Ni leaving tomorrow?" He thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go with you to see her off tomorrow."
Xie Jinghong raised his lips into a shallow smile and said nonchalantly, "I'm not going. Brother, if you want to go and see her off, that's fine. She really wants someone to see her off."
After saying that, she walked around the crowd and went into the house, completely unaware of the worried expressions on their faces.
"Boss Ni, who is it?"
Xie Zeyu and Lu Wenyin looked at Xie Ci'nan curiously.
"Oh, it's the CEO of Feiyue Investment Bank who's in charge of our cooperation, and also..."
He pondered for a moment, and used the right words to describe the relationship between Nini and Xie Jinghong. "She's also Jinghong's subordinate, or maybe a good friend."
He was actually a little confused as to why Nini was leaving but his sister didn't go to see her off.
Although my sister attaches great importance to the work of the clinic, it is only natural to go to the airport to see Nini off since she has come all the way back and done a great job.
Xie Jinghong could not help him answer this question.
But Nini can.
The next morning, Xie Ci Nan went to the hotel where Nini was staying early and drove her to the airport personally.
Nini was a little surprised when she saw Xie Ci Nan.
"Thank you for your hard work, Dong!"
She laughed heartily, leaning against the front of the car in a charming manner as she watched Xie Ci Nan busying herself with helping her move her luggage.
Xie Ci Nan smiled warmly.
"Boss Ni has helped our Xie Group solve such a big problem this time. This is what I should do."
Nini stopped talking and waited until he packed his luggage before they got in the car.
"My sister is a little busy at her clinic, so she asked me to take your place today."
Although Nini is Xie Jinghong's subordinate, Xie Ci Nan doesn't want her to misunderstand his sister, so he starts explaining as soon as he gets in the car.
After hearing this, Nini just smiled.
It seems that Jinghong, the elder brother, doesn't really understand his younger sister.
She straightened her expression and said seriously:
"Mr. Xie, do you know about the abandoned cat effect?"
Xie Ci Nan was driving seriously. He was a little surprised that Nini would suddenly talk to him about such a profound topic, but he quickly replied, "I know."
Nini sighed as lightly as a falling leaf.
"Jinghong is very afraid of separation. The environment she grew up in destined her to digest all emotions alone. Even if she is sad or upset, she will not show too much emotion."
"But that doesn't mean she won't be sad or heartbroken, Mr. Xie, can you understand?"
Xie Ci Nan listened attentively and couldn't help but think of how Xie Jinghong looked when he returned home last night.
"I guess... I can understand."
He said hesitantly.
"No, you don't understand!"
Nini became a little excited.
She looked at Xie Ci Nan who was driving and her tone became stern.
"Jinghong needs a lot of love, love that will never disappear in this life, love that will never transfer. She needs to be noticed, remembered, and always put first."
"She doesn't like others thinking about what belongs to her, nor does she like being cared about today and forgotten tomorrow."
"She was afraid of being abandoned, afraid of separation, afraid of everything that would disappear."
"If something is destined to disappear, she would rather never have it!"
"Do you know all this?"
"Do you understand?"
"Can you empathize?"
Nini's continuous questions made Xie Ci Nan confused.
He was a little confused about the answer. He thought he was trying to make up for it.
But if what Nini said is true, then what he is doing now is far from enough.
At least, based on his current understanding of Xie Jinghong, it is not at the level that Nini said.
His heart felt like a circle of wind formed by dead leaves swept up by the autumn wind, spreading wildly, sweeping across the softest part of his heart, and stinging him painfully.
Nini looked at his slightly confused profile and sat up straight with some disappointment.
"You have never considered understanding her. These twenty years have been a torture for her."
"You should love her, love her more than you do now, give her a love that is unique to her, and make sure this love lasts no matter what happens or when."
As Nini was talking, she suddenly became a little irritated.
"I'm sorry, I think I may not have done enough. I should have paid more attention to her inner feelings."
Xie Ci'nan's voice was filled with distress.
"You should say sorry to her, not me."
Nini tightened her cashmere coat, crossed her arms, and maintained a defensive posture. She lost the desire to continue communicating and turned to look out the window.
Xie Ci Nan's brows furrowed slightly.
I have to say, what Nini said today woke him up.
It also shattered his self-perception that he had done a good job in caring for his sister.
As soon as the car arrived at the airport, Nini opened the door and got out before it even stopped.
Without waiting for Xie Ci Nan to help her carry the luggage, she swiftly took down the two boxes, one in each hand, and walked inside.
"Boss Ni..."
When Xie Ci Nan rushed over, he could hardly catch up with her.
Nini turned around and gave him a cold look, then said calmly, "Just send it here, and we'll contact you by email later!"
Xie Ci Nan retracted his outstretched hand.
He should have been happy that someone stood up for his sister.
But at this time, guilt occupied most of his mind, and he really didn't understand Xie Jinghong as well as Nini.
Not much is even known about her past.
All I know is that she entered the junior class when she was ten years old, and after completing her studies at the age of fifteen, she traveled around China and abroad.
I don’t know more details.
Twenty years of time cannot be explained in just a few words.
After watching Nini enter the airport lobby, he turned around and got into the car.
As soon as he got in the car, he called Xie Jinghong.
"Hey, big brother."
When a clear female voice came from the other end of the phone, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Boss Ni has already arrived at the airport."
"Okay, thank you, big brother."
Xie Jinghong was writing a prescription for someone. He was not focused when he spoke, and even sounded a little perfunctory.
"Have you arrived at the clinic yet?"
"right."
After Xie Jinghong finished writing the last word, he picked up his phone and took a look. It was indeed Xie Ci Nan calling.
But why is this big brother a little clingy today?
Doesn't she usually go to the clinic at this time? Why ask?
"Okay, I'll come see you later."
Xie Jinghong: ...
Xie Jinghong thought that maybe he had talked about some cooperation with Nini, so he came over to communicate with him again. He didn't take the call to heart and continued to busy himself with his own work.
Many of the people who came to see the doctor today were white-collar workers who work nearby.
There are especially many female white-collar workers.
In the waiting area, the girls' eyes frequently fell on the man who was playing chess with himself.
Huo Yunting has been going to Xie Jinghong whenever he has time recently.
After a long time, he became like a movable signboard.
Almost all the patients who came here were female. Xie Jinghong had been taking the pulses of people who did not have any serious illnesses for several days in a row.
Although from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, everyone has some problems to a certain extent, the worst case scenario is qi deficiency, anemia, and dampness.
But these are not enough to make them stay in front of their phones and grab the numbers the moment they are released.
Xie Jinghong told the girl in front of him the medical instructions, as well as the precautions and dietary restrictions for taking the medicine, but the girl's eyes were looking elsewhere.
Xie Jinghong used some force in the hand that was holding her pulse, forcing her to turn her head and look at him.
"hiss."
The girl let out a faint cry of surprise, and when she met the cold light in Xie Jinghong's amber eyes, her face turned red.
"Excuse me, Dr. Xie, what did you just say?"
Xie Jinghong: ...
I didn't hear a single word of emotion.
She curled her lips in silence, "You have a weak spleen. Being less obsessed with beauty and secreting less dopamine will help you recover."
"what?"
The girl was very surprised. How could this be a combination of Chinese and Western medicine?
"You don't have any serious problems."
Xie Jinghong put away the pulse pillow, pushed the wrapped medicine to her, and adhering to medical ethics, told her again the precautions and dietary restrictions.
"Okay, okay, thank you, doctor."
At this time, the girl probably realized what Xie Jinghong had said just now. She took the medicine, paid the bill, and left in a hurry.
Before leaving, she did not forget to look back at the man on the sofa.
"Next person."
Xie Jinghong moved his wrist and shouted.
No one came for a long time.
The two young girls waiting there were staring at the man on the sofa with slightly blushing faces, whispering something to each other.
An unhappy look appeared on Xie Jinghong's pretty little face. She stood up, took something out of the closet next to her, and strode over.
Huo Yunting plays chess as if he is in a trance, and everything in the outside world seems to have nothing to do with him.
But the moment he heard Xie Jinghong's footsteps, he immediately raised his head.
then……
Something black blocked his vision, and then the lower half of his face was covered.
Xie Jinghong put a big black mask on him.
"How can the boss of a listed company be so idle?"
Xie Jing felt somewhat helpless about his daily visits.
Huo Yunting smiled brightly under his mask and explained, "Being in the same space with you allows me to be more efficient."
Next to the chessboard is his laptop computer.
He can respond to emails and messages at any time.
"You're affecting my business."
Xie Jinghong tapped his forehead with two fingers and complained in his voice.
Huo Yunting glanced coldly at the two people sitting on the waiting chairs not far away, then retracted his gaze and looked at Xie Jinghong with grievance.
"What should I do, hide under your desk?"
Xie Jinghong: ...
It was hard to imagine that Huo Yunting, the man feared by everyone in North City, could look at people with such innocent, dog-like eyes and speak in such a soft tone.
"What a male demon."
It was hard for Xie Jinghong not to admit that he had been bewitched by him.
She lifted her head and stroked his handsome short hair like she was stroking a dog's head. "I'll draw a curtain for you later and hide you."
"it is good."
This strange conversation made the two young girls next to them blush and turn pale.
Obviously, this is Dr. Xie’s girlfriend. They stared at her like that just now. Dr. Xie would be angry, right?
As he was speaking, steady footsteps were heard at the door.
"The morning number is sold out."
Xie Jinghong still looked down at Huo Yunting and said nothing without turning around.
"Jinghong, it's me."
