Muted (穆然)

4

The first day of getting along was actually a bit awkward.

In the past, when the two of them stayed together, Mu Ran would always take the initiative to talk, or hide in the kitchen to study some of Yi Tian's favorite dishes when Yi Tian was impatient. But this time, Mu Ran just sat there blankly, not caring. He talks without expression, like a wooden person. Yi Tian felt a little irritable at first, but then gradually calmed down. He had already brought the person back, and even put down his arrogance to accompany him. He didn't believe that Mu Ran would remain so indifferent.

After dinner in the evening, seeing that Mu Ran wanted to rest, Yi Tian grabbed the person and wrapped the gauze on his wrist with plastic wrap. He turned around when he saw that the person quietly entered the bathroom with a change of clothes. Go downstairs and call Xu Ran to discuss whether Xu Ran will come over to give Mu Ran psychological treatment tomorrow.

After making an appointment, Xu Ran asked more volubly: "What is Mu Ran doing? How are you doing today?" Yi Tian nodded towards the aunt who had washed the dishes and cleaned up and signaled to him, and then answered casually after seeing the person close the door and leave. : "He was taking a shower. He didn't speak all day today."

"Taking a shower? You're not with him?" Xu Ran's voice rose several times.

Yi Tian frowned, "Why should I take a shower with him?"

Xu Ran took a deep breath and said in a cold voice: "Go to the bathroom right now. The door must be locked. Take the key with you. Remember to call the doctor."

Yi Tian felt something was wrong after hearing Xu Ran's tone, turned around and ran upstairs to the bathroom. When he got to the door and turned the doorknob, he found that the door was indeed locked. He knocked on the door and called several times, but no one answered, not even a sound. Yi Tian didn't even bother to get the key, he just raised his leg and kicked the door. After a few hits, the door was kicked open with a "bang". When he saw the scene inside, he was so shocked that he even forgot to breathe: Mu Ran looked in a daze. Sitting on the ground in the bathtub, he tore up the plastic wrap and bandages and threw them on the ground. The unhealed wound on his left wrist was exposed to the water and became red, swollen and rotten. There was not much water in the pool, but it had been dyed pale. pink.

Yi Tian came to his senses, rushed over to lift the person up from the water, and pulled a towel on the wall to press Mu Ran's wound tightly. After he contacted the doctor, he raised his hand and gave Mu Ran a slap in the face as soon as he hung up the phone.

The force of the slap was so great that Mu Ran turned his head away, and red finger marks instantly appeared on his face. Because Yi Tian discovered it quickly, his blood loss was not too serious and he was still conscious, but he remained silent and did not react at all. Yi Tian looked at his nonchalant look, took a few deep breaths to suppress the rage in his heart, and controlled himself not to reach out and kill the person in front of him.

Lao He is the family doctor of the Yi family. He rushed over as quickly as possible after receiving Yi Tian's call. Seeing Mu Ran like that, he didn't ask any questions. He lowered his head and started to bandage it. Yi Tian watched from the side as the criss-crossed and bloody wounds made by Mu Ran with a piece of glass were so soaked that they were almost invisible, and his heart twitched.

On the other hand, the person lying on the bed with his wound bandaged didn't even frown or hum, as if he couldn't feel the pain. Even Lao He looked up at him several times in slight surprise. This was the first time he had seen someone who cut his wrists and remained silent like this.

When Lao He was about to leave after treating the wound, Yi Tian whispered from behind: "Uncle He, please help me keep this matter a secret." Lao He is a member of the Yi family. If the Yi family has any big or small illness, he will seek medical advice first. He, his mother especially likes to ask people about his condition. If he accidentally lets it slip, Mu Ran will definitely not be able to stay any longer.

"I understand." Lao He nodded towards him. He has been able to stay in the Yi family for so long and knows what to say and what not to say.

"Thank you, Uncle He."

Lao He hesitated for a moment, and finally said more: "Find someone to check on him. There is something wrong with him mentally."

Seeing Yi Tian nod, he picked up his things and turned to leave.

There were only two of them left in the room again. Yi Tian looked at the still silent person and was about to speak when the phone rang. It was Xu Ran.

Xu Ran listened to his narration and sneered: "You let a severely depressed patient who just committed suicide stay alone in the bathroom to take a bath? Why don't you just give him a knife and let him bleed for fun? You really don't have any Is it intentional or intentional?"

Yi Tian followed her sarcasm without getting angry or answering.

He really didn't expect that Mu Ran would dare to commit suicide while staying by his side. To be honest, even if he returned to China and heard about his behavior, including the depression and hysteria diagnosed by Xu Ran, he would not believe it. He even thought that all this was just a way for Mu Ran to attract his attention. When he brought the person back, he actually had a sense of indulgence. He waited to see Mu Ran pester him again after two or three days of recovery, and put on the look of being so in love with her again. As for whether to expose the opponent's tricks and drive them out or stay with him and use them, he had no idea.

He thought so much, but he never thought that this person really didn't want to live anymore.

"You keep an eye on him when you go to bed at night. I'm not sure if he will become hysterical or commit suicide. This person is a time bomb now. Stop treating him like a white rabbit and think it's fun to keep him at home." Xu Ran said for a long time. He didn't feel annoyed when he didn't hear the answer, he just gave a serious explanation.

Yi Tian hummed and hung up the
