Chapter 335

ap, tap, tap....One, two, three...One step… why bother waking up Why not let her live in a daze, pretending from now on that she doesn't care, that she’s no longer in loveTwo steps… Is it love, or hat..."

Soft, rosy pink rabbit slippers, that dazzling shade of pink, just so boldly and innocently appearing before her eyes.

"Tongtong put it on."

She could almost hear the grinding of her teeth, her head throbbing... Damn it!

I almost lost my cool again, pushed to the edge by this person!

Ignoring everything, the man in front of her was already holding the pink bunny slippers and crouched down before her.

Jian Tong was baffled by this action.

As she lowered her head, their eyes met. He was squatting on the ground, his head tilted up at her with a silly grin, urging her incessantly with a chuckle:

"Tongtong also changed into pink bunny slippers."

"...No."

As she spoke, she took off her shoes by herself and took out her light gray silent slippers from the shoe cabinet in the entrance hall. Just as she was about to change into them, a hand shot out quickly and snatched away the slippers she usually wore at home. Her face changed, and she was about to speak.

He held a brand new pair of slippers in one hand, and grasped her ankle with the other. The moment his hand clamped onto her ankle, she was startled and tried to pull away.

That man had already cried out:

"Tongtong, don't move. I'll help you put on your bunny slippers."

Although it was not a threatening statement, Jian Tong's entire body trembled.

Her eyes widened suddenly, staring at the person kneeling before her. That face, stunningly handsome with chiseled features, made her head spin even further, leaving her feeling dazed and disbelieving for a moment.

He... what is he doing

That person had already clumsily picked up the slippers and tried to put them on her feet, but was still clumsy. Using both hands and feet, that person wasn't just squatting on the ground anymore, but had knelt down on one knee...

At this moment, she was like an electric shock! Her eyes ached, "Let go～!"

"Don't move, it will be over soon..."

"Shen Xiujin! Get up for me!" She only knew that she was very angry right now, very angry. All she wanted was for this scene to disappear from her eyes as quickly as possible!

It's best if this person disappears too!

"Oh, just wait a moment..."

She looked down at the man kneeling before her, one knee on the ground, one hand cupping her foot, the other holding her shoe. She couldn't explain why this scene felt so jarring right now.

But, it's just an eyesore!

"Shen Xiujin," she whispered, her voice husky with emotion. "Listen to me."

I don't need you to help me put on my shoes.

I don't like the pink rabbit slippers you chose for me.

I don't like the kitty cat toothbrush, and I don't like that cup either.

"Don't believe me when I say things like 'pink bunny slippers are so cute', that's all a lie!"

She said, her voice rising to a crescendo at the end, until it was almost a shout directed at him.

Angry and distressed.

This anger and distress, it came so suddenly, so without reason!

Jian Tong's cheeks were flushed red, she glared at him angrily. The man was stunned by her shout and just knelt there, dumbstruck, looking up at her with those black eyes that before had been nothing but aloof and distant.

At this moment, there was only bewilderment, confusion, and incomprehension... He couldn't understand why she was so angry, why she suddenly erupted like this. He raised his hand to cover his chest, his eyes filled with even greater confusion and puzzlement. Was he sick Why did it hurt here

But no matter how much it hurt, nothing mattered more than Tongtong's tantrum at this moment.

"I..."

"What are you" Jian Tong blurted out, as the pent-up emotions found an outlet. She seemed to have no fear whatsoever.

He was taken aback by her outburst, a look of deep unease flashing in his eyes: "I'm sorry..."

“Enough! Shen Xiujin!” A certain nerve of hers seemed to be touched by his words, her face becoming even more unsightly, even angrier:

"Can you stop saying sorry!"

If he wants to apologize, then let him do it when he's sober.

Such an apology, she will not accept!

For why she was enraged by Shen Xiuqin's simple "sorry," Jian Tong explained to herself that she didn't need an apology from a child with the mental capacity of an eight-year-old.

She took off her usual slippers and ignored the person, walking toward the bedroom. Her head felt a little dizzy, thinking to herself that she must have been overworked lately. She decided to take a good rest today.

As soon as I thought that, before I could even cross the threshold, I lost consciousness completely.

Jian Tong's body went limp, the person behind her face paled drastically, almost rushing forward before catching the woman in his arms. He lowered his head to look at the woman in his arms, tightening his grip on her waist.

"Tong Tong Tong Tong"

He anxiously called out to the woman in his arms, but received no response.

He had no other choice, so he hurriedly took out his phone from her coat pocket and found Xi Chen's contact information: "Tongtong fainted."

……

===Chapter 280: This Night===

Seeing him eat the bowl of noodles with a pained expression, even slurping down the last drop of broth, and then stealing a glance at her as if afraid she'd see through him, made it obvious he was trying to hide his feelings.

Slowly getting up, Jian Tong picked up the bowls and chopsticks on the table.

"Tongtong, don't move."

"I'm going to wash the dishes."

"No need for TongTong to wash, Axiu will wash." Saying that, he rushed to wash the dishes.

Jian Tong watched on, her heart pounding. Letting Shen Xiu Jin wash the dishes wasn't a good idea. But luckily, this time nothing went haywire. At least, there weren't any flying chickens or dogs, and no scene of utter chaos.

She turned and went to the washroom. The warm water flowed over her head, washing over her again and again, as a jumble of images flashed before her eyes.

When her grandfather was still alive, she clung to that man's face with confidence. Back then, she was young and vigorous. She always thought that if she worked hard enough, if she was good enough, Shen Xiujin wouldn't like her, but he could like anyone else.

The scene shifted, and there was Xia Wei Ming's corpse, cold and lifeless, lying before her. And that person, with eyes like daggers, pierced through her without mercy.

This was the first time she had knelt down in her life, excluding ancestral worship. That rainy night, the sky was incredibly cold, the rain piercingly chill. Her heart, however, brimmed with anticipation.

Until....

Suddenly, she shivered and opened her eyes. The water from the shower head streamed down her face, making her eyes feel slightly sour..This hasn't developed yet.Your daughter has the idea of targeting Xiao Ou and even saying that she wants Xiao Ou to donate bone marrow.I don't want to save Mo Bai, but Xiao Ou is only ten years old....
