Chapter 357
Leon picked up Meghan, strode towards the co-pilot, opened the car door, and put her in carefully.
When he bent over to fasten her seat belt, she looked at his close face, her flustered heart calmed down a little bit, and the sweetness of her heart came out.
After getting in the car, Leon first called to help people deal with the beating today, and then started the car and asked Meghan: “What happened just now?”
After he came out of the orphanage today, he has been working around here. As soon as he finished, he saw the man catching up with Meghan and bullying her.
He hurried over, but it was a little late. She was thrown to the ground. Although it seemed that the injury was not serious, she was a little girl who looked weak and weak at ordinary times and was definitely afraid of pain.
Although he didn’t mean to her in that respect, after all, he had known her for so long, and coupled with the relationship between the two families, he really regarded her as his own little niece.
The girl she was covering was bullied, so his heart came up with cruelty, so she greeted the man in a desperate manner.
Beside, Meghan bit her lip: “I saw him paddling your car.”
He was taken aback for a moment, and definitely didn’t expect this to be the cause.
However, the anger that hadn’t dissipated in the heart suddenly revived.
After a sudden brake, Leon looked at Meghan: “Are you stupid or what? The car paint is spent, is it more important than your safety?!”
She was stunned by him, but she understood the meaning of his words at random. Suddenly, the sweetness in her heart could no longer be hidden, her face was still swollen, but she smiled: “Brother Leon, I know, In your heart I am more important than the car!”
Her cheeks are big on one side and small on the other, her hair is a little messy, and when she laughs, her eyes are still red, pitiful and funny. He was originally very angry, but in an instant he lost his temper with such innocent laughter, and uttered two words: “Deserve it.”
After speaking, continue to drive away.
She forgot about the pain, her cheeks were still smiling, and her eyebrows were crooked, sitting next to him, turning her head to look at him from time to time.
He was a little bored by her stupidity. Seeing that he passed the drugstore, he stopped the car and left a sentence: “Sit and wait for me.”
After all, Leon went to the drugstore, bought some alcohol, anti-inflammatory drugs and scald medicine, and returned.
He looked at the blisters on her shoulders, frowned slightly, unscrewed the ointment, dipped some of the ointment with a cotton swab, and carefully applied it to her shoulders.
She turned her head to look at him, and neither of them spoke, but she felt that the atmosphere in the car had increased a little bit because of his gentle movements at the moment.
She could even feel his breath, slightly falling on her shoulders, a little itchy.
Leon finished painting her shoulders, then grabbed her hand and looked at the bruise on her palm.
His palms were fair, she was originally whiter than him, but because she fell on the ground and stained with soil, she looked a little dirty.
The delicate palms were marked out in several ways, and there were broken skins in some places, soiled, and dirty.
“It is estimated that you have to go home to deal with it, you bear it.” Leon said, letting go of her hand and stepping on the accelerator, the speed was obviously much faster than before.
When he reached the apartment where she lived, he stopped the car, bent over to unfasten the seat belt for her, was about to hug her out, remembered something, and asked, “Can you still walk?”
Her careful thoughts fluctuated with his movements just now, relying on the fact that her face was not normal at the moment, she blushed and lied: “No, legs hurt.”
He glanced at her, seemingly suspicious, but without saying anything, he leaned in and carried her out.
She immediately stretched out her arms and gently wrapped around the back of his neck.
In her heart, she suddenly praised my bravery today. It seems that all the injuries are worthwhile.
She leaned against his chest, his steady and powerful heartbeat beside her ears, which made her heart resonate uncontrollably in the cramped space of the elevator.
It’s a pity that the elevator quickly reached her floor. He held her to the door, put her down, and went to get her bag.
This is the first time Leon has entered the house. He looked at it slightly and asked, “Does your brother usually live with you? Do you ask auntie or something?”
Meghan shook her head: “No, I usually eat at school, and my brother is in the company, so I didn’t hire anyone. On weekends, if we are all free, we will clean the room by ourselves.”
Leon nodded, hugged her, put her on the sofa, and said, “Wait for me to help you deal with the wound.”
He quickly fetched a basin of water, took a dry towel, got wet, and said, “It might be a little bit painful, so bear with it.”
With that, he took her hand up, put it on his knee, and carefully wiped off the dirt on it.
His appearance is serious and careful. When he lowers his eyes, he appears to have very long eyelashes, and his face is less casual and more detailed.
She looked at it, forgot about the pain, and fell in love.
Until, he put down the towel and said: “Now disinfection, it will definitely hurt.”
She gave a’um’, biting her lip to endure.
Sure enough, a thread-piercing sensation came from her palm, and her hand couldn’t help but retract, but she was immediately held by his big hand. The touch on her wrist is clear, and the veins of his palm prints are printed again.
Her cheeks were flushed and she stopped moving, letting him disinfect her.
“Okay.” Leon finally raised his head: “Don’t touch the water or scratch before the scab is formed.”
She nodded, looking quiet.
In the room, the atmosphere suddenly seemed to stagnate, until Meghan’s mobile phone rang.
Leon walked over and took out her mobile phone: “Your brother called you.”
Meghan hurriedly swiped his fingertips to answer, and put Leon’s hand into the receiver and said, “Brother.”
“Meghan, I’m about to board the plane, are you home?” Hubert said.
“I’m home.” Meghan glanced at Leon, and then said: “Brother, then you are busy, be careful on the way.”
“Okay, don’t run around at home, take care of yourself.” Hubert saw that the plane had already been boarded there, so he said: “I will give you WeChat when I get there. You go to bed early, don’t wait for me.”
After all, hung up the phone.
Because of being close, Leon almost heard Hubert’s words. He asked, “How many days does your brother go on business?”
She said: “Come back the day after tomorrow.”
He was silent and didn’t ask anything else.
After a while, he asked, “Have you eaten?”
Meghan nodded: “Did some in the orphanage, how about you?”
He nodded: “I have eaten too.”
She nodded to show that she knew, and looked at the clock on the wall unconsciously.
At this moment, it is already past 8 o’clock in the evening, and he is now
“Your brother is worried about you, right?” Leon asked suddenly.
Meghan nodded, “He is like my father sometimes.”
“I will stay with you.” His tone was natural, and the way he spoke didn’t seem to ask for advice.
She was startled, her heart jumped for joy, and the corners of her lips seemed to be unable to conceal a smile: “Okay.”
He glanced at her, saw the swelling on her cheeks, got up: “I’ll help you deal with your face.”
Her heart trembled suddenly and said anxiously: “Brother Leon, am I ugly now?”
After all, it is a little girl, this kind of thinking can not be hidden. Leon smiled: “It’s a bit ugly.”
“Ah!” Meghan was depressed. She was about to run into the bathroom to look in the mirror, but she realized that she was playing a’handicapped person’, so she sat depressed and watched Leon go to the kitchen.
He took an egg from the refrigerator and boiled it. When he was waiting to be cooked, he walked to the door and saw Meghan who was looking forward to it.
The little girl probably didn’t expect him to look over, the expression on her face was so rich.
After a while, I took a picture of myself with my mobile phone, and then grabbed my hair in annoyance, and finally straightened my hair out, and took another picture with my mobile phone.
The appearance over and over again reminded him of some long past.
Remember, when he was in high school, he was a little bit so interested in a girl. By coincidence, the girl also asked him, so he readily agreed.
After all, he was still very young at that time, so when he went out, he also changed his clothes several times and tidyed his hair several times, which is Meghan’s mentality at the moment.
The reason why he and she now did this was because of a clear heart.
He thought, he didn’t dislike her, nor did he like her. It was just that he felt that he had passed the age of her mentality at the moment and had no thoughts of falling in love. It seemed that many things that he was passionate about in the past could not be interesting.
He couldn’t give her the response she expected, he would only hurt her, hurt her enthusiasm, and turn her into the same person he is now.
Leon looked back, the water for boiled eggs was already boiling, and he turned the fire down a bit, leaning aside and waiting quietly.
Outside, Meghan felt that her hair was finally not messed up at the moment, but her cheeks were still a little ugly swollen, she was annoyed, and she didn’t know how to remove the palm prints on her face. I think that Hubert will be back the day after tomorrow, and he will be mad when he see it, and I feel even more depressed.
At this time, footsteps sounded in her ears, and when Meghan raised her eyes, Leon had already brought the peeled egg to her.
He sat down next to her, blew the egg on his hand, and said, “Little niece, I will give you a warm compress. It should be able to reduce the swelling a lot tomorrow.”
When she stared at him in a daze, his left hand had already passed through her hair and held the back of her head. He held the cooked egg in his right hand and rolled it on her swollen cheek, saying: ” Is the temperature okay?”
She nodded, thinking that she was actually not much better than the egg.
The swollen areas on her face are fine, mainly because there are slap prints. Leon rolled down along the palm prints, his heart irritated.
He should kick the man a few more feet.
Therefore, he didn’t notice that she had quietly approached him, and the girl’s light fragrance penetrated into the end of his nose, and his breath fell on his wrist, a little hot.
Meghan knew that she was acting boldly at the moment, but she couldn’t control that much in this kind of warmth.
Her eyes locked his lips tightly, her body seemed to be bewitched, coming closer.
