After receiving the task, Wang Lang did not continue to stay, but came directly to Bai Xinyi's room, at this time Bai Xinyi was also sitting on the sofa in the living room with her legs crossed to watch TV, and saw that Wang Lang pushed the door in directly without even knocking on the door, and couldn't help but glance at him, and continued to watch TV.

"Why are you only picking me up alone?"

After entering the house, Wang Lang sat directly beside Bai Xinyi and asked.

Without Han Yang's presence, Wang Lang completely lost the mood to tease Bai Xinyi, she was beautiful, but she was prickly, and it was easy to prick her hands when she touched it.

"In our family," Bai Xinyi did not directly answer Wang Lang's question, but suddenly said to herself: "I originally had three elder brothers, my father sent the eldest brother to carry out a mission, and died in battle, my father sent the second brother to fight the flood and drowned, my father sent the third brother to participate in the peacekeeping, but when he rescued people, he was stoned to death by a mudslide. ”

Bai Xinyi said it lightly, but the sadness in it may only be known to her.

"Well, I've heard of this, you were born in a military family, and your family, whether they have died or are alive, are all heroes." Wang Lang said.

"Heroes? My mother doesn't think so, when I was just sensible, she died of depression, and before she died, she told me that no matter what, she wouldn't let me participate in anything my father decided......" Bai Xinyi hugged her legs, half of her pretty face was buried deep in her knees, although her eyes were still staring at the TV screen, but what she was actually thinking, maybe only she knew.

Listening to this meaning, I'm afraid she also knows here that her main role is to act as a "bait".

"Didn't you come anyway then?"

"It's rude to interrupt someone, especially girls." Bai Xinyi glanced at Wang Lang with her eyes and said.

"I'm sorry, you continue." Wang Lang smiled and said.

"Although my mother left a last word, my father agreed on the surface, but in fact, he didn't seem to agree with my mother's statement in his heart, he felt that a soldier should be loyal to the motherland, loyal to the people, and die for the motherland, and this is what a soldier should do."

Bai Xinyi smiled slightly, and then continued with some concern: "So, although my father promised my mother that he would not let me join the army again, he didn't want the Bai family to come to me, so he completely cut off contact with the military camp, so not long after my mother died, my father asked me to set a baby with the Han family when I was ten years old." ”

"So much has happened to your family."

Wang Lang had nothing to do, and when he saw that Bai Xinyi was willing to speak, he always sat aside and volunteered to be a listener.

"Yes, I was young when my father made this decision, and I didn't think too much about it, but I just felt that since I could meet my mother's last wish at the same time, and let my father not be sad, this is ...... Maybe that's fine. ”

When Bai Xinyi spoke, a trace of bitterness reappeared on her face, and her middle finger and ring finger also subconsciously gently tapped her cardamom-like toes.

This is a habitual little action of hers, whenever she is unhappy, or sad, she will sit with her legs in her arms, and her fingers will keep tapping her toes, it is said that her mother is a pianist, so when she was very young, every time she was unhappy, her mother liked to do this action, and by the way, hummed the song "Little Star" to make her happy.

"I see, but I don't think you're happy." Wang Lang also looked at Bai Xinyi with uncertainty and asked.

"Yes, it was when I was fourteen years old, I was still in the sixth grade of primary school, one evening, there was a sudden rainstorm in the sky, my father said to pick me up, but because I was busy with things in the army, I was very sad, so I ran out of school by myself, at that time Han Yang was in the same class as me, and when I saw that I ran, I also followed."

When she said this, Bai Xinyi suddenly showed a very soft smile on her face, and after pausing for a while, she continued to say softly: "Because of the rain and the slippery road, on the way home, I accidentally fell into a sewer that was washed over the manhole cover. ”

"You're really unlucky, what about Han Yang? Didn't I pull you? ”

Wang Lang looked at Bai Xinyi with a wry smile and asked.

"I remember that the water rushing down was very fast, and I clung to the sewer escalator, only exposing my head and crying for help outside, Han Yang also saw it at the time, but ...... Oh, he ran, and he ran while crying, and ran without even looking back. Bai Xinyi suddenly smiled disdainfully, and then continued with a flat expression: "Just when I was about to stop falling uncontrollably, you know? Something I couldn't have imagined happened, a little boy a few years younger than me ran up to me, and the moment I let go, he grabbed me. ”

"He saved you?" Wang Lang couldn't help but ask subconsciously.

"Giggles, it's gone, that stupid guy is so small, just caught me, and fell with me."

Bai Xinyi rarely showed a somewhat distorted smile, and then said with a slightly red face, as if she was still embarrassed to be embarrassed for the little boy who had been involved in the beginning.

"Uh......" Wang Lang smiled bitterly speechlessly.

"But, I'm really impressed." Bai Xinyi stopped smiling, "Fortunately, that place was a main pipe at that time, and the drainage was also very good, so the pipe was not filled with water." ”

"And then?" Wang Lang looked at Bai Xinyi with interest and asked.

"Later, ah......" Bai Xinyi's face turned red for no reason, and she was actually embarrassed, "Later, I was very scared, he kept holding me and comforting me, you don't know how ridiculous it was at the time, he was obviously so little to me, obviously so thin, but he just hugged me like that, but it made me feel so comfortable, so warm, I think, I should have liked him at the time, hmm...... It's wrong, I should be in love with him, right? ”

"You know how to be in heat with a guy at such a young age?"

Wang Lang looked at Bai Xinyi with some incredulity and asked.

"Heat?" Bai Xinyi first looked at Wang Lang and was stunned for a while, and then after thinking for a while, she nodded very seriously, "Well, it can also be said that I was in estrus, and then I was stupid when I saw the water level of the underground waterway getting higher and higher, but he still hugged me and said to me, 'It's okay, I'm here, I will always protect you', after speaking, this stupid guy suddenly picked me up, and deliberately made me laugh and said, 'Don't be sad, I'll pretend to be lame to show you', after speaking, he limped on my back and ran up in the underground pipe. ”

"Why run?" Wang Lang looked at Bai Xinyi with a strange face and asked.

"If you don't run, will you wait for the water level to rise and drown?" Bai Xinyi glanced at Wang Lang angrily, and then continued: "Later, I don't know how long we ran, we finally found a manhole cover with little water flow, and then he pushed me to climb up, but ...... Not long after I climbed up and tried to turn around and pull him, he smirked and fell headlong, and then he was washed away by the water in the sewer, and then I realized that he was so warm because he had a high fever, and he limped when he ran on my back, not to make me laugh, but because his foot had already sprained when he first fell. ”

"How do you know he's sprained on his foot?"

Wang Lang looked at Bai Xinyi, whose eyes were a little red, and asked.

"He then planted and was washed away, what I saw, you know? I still remember the last words he said to me when we both saw the exit. ”

"What did he say?"

"He smiled and told me that it was great that he didn't give up just now."
