C550 Follow Closely Footsteps

Of course, Jian Xi wouldn't do that, because it was purely because Qu Yichen couldn't see her. That was why she dared to say that. She also covered the dark circles under her eyes with the ointment. However, Jian Xi could not hide the wound on her lips no matter how hard she tried.

Fortunately, Qu Yichen could not see it, so he naturally would not ask her. This was also why she dared to appear in front of Qu Yichen in such an open and aboveboard manner.

Even though he heard Jian Xi's energetic voice, Qu Yichen still asked worriedly. "Are you really alright?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine! I'm fine!" Jian Xi replied several times in a row.

"It's good that you're fine!" Qu Yichen heaved a sigh of relief and said. "If you are not feeling well, you must go to the hospital for a checkup, understand? No matter what happens, I will be there. Don't worry. "

For a moment, Jian Xi thought that she was like a worried child in Qu Yichen's eyes. However, when she saw Qu Yichen's gloomy face, Jian Xi felt warm in her heart and agreed. "Okay, okay!"

"Let's have lunch. Because I know that you have nothing to do with breakfast, I asked Mrs Zhang to prepare more for you." Jian Xi recovered her spirit and said as she opened the thermos. "By the way, how did you settle your meals for the past two days? Did you really starve for two days?"

But when he turned his head to look at Qu Yichen's face, he did not look like a person who had been hungry for two days! So, when he confirmed that she could not come over, he must have thought of other ways to solve his food and clothing problem.

"Don't worry, I won't starve to death!" Qu Yichen said in a joking manner. "You didn't come all morning. I called my friend to help me order takeout. So, I've been eating breakfast in the hotel for the past two days, including breakfast this morning. The hotel staff will also come to see me. "

Jian Xi let out a sigh of relief when she heard what Qu Yichen said. She reminded Qu Yichen. "In the future, if you don't send a meal over, don't wait for me. Just order a gift! Of course, if I can't send it over, next time, I'll definitely tell you in advance."

" En! "Qu Yichen nodded.

After lunch, Jian Xi went into the kitchen to cut a plate of fruit and walked out. She sat next to Qu Yichen and used a toothpick to send small pieces to Qu Yichen's mouth.

"In two days, I should go to the hospital for a check-up."

"Yes, it should be about time!" Qu Yichen swallowed the fruit in his mouth.

"Then I will come early that day and take you to the hospital."

"Okay." Qu Yichen did not have any objections.

Since there were only two or three days left, Jian Xi decided not to look for a job for the time being. After Qu Yichen finished checking and confirming the time of the surgery, she would look for a new job after Qu Yichen finished the surgery.

In this way, she did not have to worry about taking care of Qu Yichen and leaving her work behind. No matter what kind of work it was, honesty was the most important, especially for people like them who received bills online. Their reputation was even more important.

Without a job, it also meant that Jian Xi was very idle. Other than accompanying Qu Yichen to watch television, there seemed to be nothing else she could do.

"Let's go downstairs to walk in the garden!" Jian Xi suggested.

"Okay! I haven't gone out for two or three days." Qu Yichen replied.

Jian Xi was overwhelmed by guilt when she heard what Qu Yichen said. She should have taken good care of Qu Yichen, but she always worried him.

It seemed that she had to think of a way to get someone to deliver food for her when she was unable to deliver food to Qu Yichen. The first person in Jian Xi's mind was Mrs Zhang.

Jian Xi could not believe that such a matter would be handed over to other people. Only Mrs Zhang, who had been with her for so long, could make Jian Xi feel at ease to hand it over to her.

After walking around the garden, half of the afternoon had passed. She returned to the apartment and accompanied Qu Yichen to watch the television for a while. Jian Xi then turned around and left and returned to the villa.

After dinner, just like before, she carried Qu Yichen's dinner and returned to the apartment. She took care of Qu Yichen until he laid on the bed. Only then did Jian Xi leave Qu Yichen's apartment.

It was almost ten o'clock in the evening. Jian Xi was very familiar with this road that had been going back and forth countless times.

Jian Xi originally thought that she would be the same as usual. But today... She did not know why, but as she walked along the road, it made Jian Xi feel a little apprehensive. She felt as if there was something following behind her, but when she turned her head, there was no one behind her, it was empty.

The feeling of fear in her heart made Jian Xi involuntarily quicken her pace. In the end, she even ran. It was just that her body was not feeling well. It made Jian Xi want to run faster, but her body was not up to her to decide.

The footsteps behind her also seemed to be getting closer and closer. Because of fear, Jian Xi's heart was filled with fear. When they were pulled together, her breathing also became rapid. In other aspects, Jian Xi's courage could be said to be very big. But at night, Jian Xi was timid in the aspect of cows, ghosts, and snakes.

Because nothing had happened when they walked back and forth, Jian Xi felt at ease and continued to walk forward boldly. But today did not seem to be her lucky day.2

Jian Xi almost heard the footsteps closely following behind her. Jian Xi's hand that was holding the thermos flung backwards in fear. She looked over but did not see anything. Immediately, she collapsed onto the ground as if she had collapsed.

After resting for a while, Jian Xi got up and continued to walk forward. Her speed did not slow down at all as she quickly walked forward.

But not long after, Jian Xi heard the footsteps that followed closely. She turned her head and saw that there was clearly no one. This made Jian Xi have no choice but to suspect whether she really ran into a ghost.

Otherwise, how could she possibly hear footsteps?

Once again, she heard the footsteps behind her, almost touching her. Jian Xi once again lifted the thermos and flung it backwards. This time, Jian Xi was still flung into the air. It did not hit anything. But Jian Xi's eyes were staring in front of her in horror, just a few steps away from her. There was a person standing there, staring at her.

Jian Xi screamed and turned around to run. The person behind also closely chased after her. His footsteps were so fast that he caught up to Jian Xi in a few steps.

Seeing that the man was about to catch up to her, his hand was about to grab her. Jian Xi wanted to use the same trick again and use a thermos to knock the person in front of her out. But the strength of the swing was too great and Jian Xi had yet to regain her balance. Not only did she not hit that person, Jian Xi herself fell to the ground instead.

"You... Who are you? What exactly do you want to do?" Jian Xi crawled back in fear as she stared at the person with the light on his back but her face could not be seen clearly.

However, from the height and outline of that person, Jian Xi could roughly tell that the person in front of her who was chasing after her was a man. But it was precisely because he was a man that made Jian Xi even more afraid.
