Chapter 45 Pain
"Brother, I'm here, I'm right beside you, open your eyes and see, I'm Xiaoxiao, I'm Xiaoxiao!"

"..."

Nan Haoxuan seemed to be unable to find Nan Xiaoxiao in a dream, sweating profusely, Nan Xiaoxiao hurriedly took out a piece of silk from his cuff, and carefully wiped the sweat off his forehead.

This tiny move was noticed by Nan Haoxuan who had just opened his eyes, and with his backhand, he grabbed Nan Xiaoxiao's white wrist that was placed on his forehead.

"Brother, are you awake?"

Nan Xiaoxiao stopped the movements of her hands, and smiled in surprise and happiness. However, half of her white veil covered half of her expression that could have looked brighter, but Nan Haoxuan only Seeing the joy and excitement emanating from her smart and crystal eyes.

"...Xiaoxiao!" Nan Haoxuan seemed to have just recovered from a high fever, his voice was slightly hoarse, "Is that you?"

"Yeah!" Nan Xiaoxiao nodded like a chick eating rice, and said to Lan Xin who was as happy as herself behind her, "Lan Xin, quickly pour a cup of hot water for the major general!"

"Yes, miss!"

"Xiaoxiao, why are you wearing this veil?"

"..." Nan Xiaoxiao deliberately avoided answering, turned around and took a glass of water from Lan Xin, and smiled at Nan Haoxuan, "Brother, come on, drink up the water!"

"Xiaoxiao?"

Nan Haoxuan was not in the mood to drink water at all, and was still worried about Nan Xiaoxiao's face behind the veil.

Reaching out, wanting to take that veil off myself
"elder brother!"

Nan Haoxuan's outstretched strong arm was hanging in the air, and Nan Xiaoxiao stopped the movement with a pleading tone.

"Xiaoxiao, are you..." Nan Haoxuan gradually regained his sanity, and suddenly the scene that happened in Dongkua courtyard that day appeared in his head. He searched for a long time but couldn't find Nan Xiaoxiao's shadow. She was knocked unconscious, so how did Nan Xiaoxiao get out?
"... Was it in the fire and burned the face bag?"

Although Nan Haoxuan didn't force himself to continue to remove the veil on her face, but through the back of the veil, he could vaguely see a scar hidden on the left cheek. It seemed that the scab hadn't healed completely, and it looked like a new injury just now. .

Holding the water glass, Nan Xiaoxiao nodded with a calm expression of indifference, "Come on, brother, drink the water first, the high fever has just subsided, and you can't be dehydrated anymore!"

Nan Haoxuan didn't even have the heart to drink water, his whole body was about to suffocate to death, tears filled his eyes, drop by drop, like jade beads, rolling down one by one.

"elder brother……"

Nan Xiaoxiao's hand holding the water glass tightened slightly, hurriedly put the water glass in his hand aside, then got closer to Nan Haoxuan, sat beside him, stretched out his hand and took out a silk handkerchief, and helped himself, who always looked like Like a tough guy with strong bones, the elder brother who never shed tears wiped away the tears bit by bit.

"Xiaoxiao, brother, I'm sorry for you, and I'm even more sorry...Mother!"

"No, my brother has always loved my sister very much. If my brother hadn't risked his life and rushed into the flames, Xiaoxiao would have gone to see her mother a long time ago!"

Through the veil, Nan Haoxuan lightly touched Nan Xiaoxiao's face, with indescribable distress and self-blame in his eyes, "...It must be painful, right?"

Nan Xiaoxiao shook her head, smiling peacefully, "It's good if I can come out alive, isn't it?"

Nan Haoxuan held back the tears in his eyes, looked at his little sister so strong, but suddenly felt that he was so unbearable, his sister was already hurt so badly, and he could still persuade himself so sensiblely, how could he do it again? How about showing a gesture of compassion and putting salt on her wounds again?
