The weather turned cold, and when she stepped out of the store, she immediately felt a cold wind surrounding her, causing her to wrap her neck in a scarf, her breath creating white smoke. Nina’s mood has improved somewhat, and her feeling of fear has lessened a bit, but because of the cold, her steps are still faster than usual.
Suddenly there was a tall man’s shadow, his hair was messy, his steps were unsteady, there was a deep red scar on his face, his clothes were disheveled, and his eyes accidentally stopped on Nina. He looked at him, and a strange smile appeared on his face, looking very scary. Nina suddenly took a few steps back, carefully observing the man, “Damn!” silently cursing in my heart.
The man seemed to have found prey, his steps were unsteady, slowly approaching Nina, still holding an almost empty of wine in his hand.
“What do you want to do?” Nina was immediately scared. She turned her head to look at the convenience store and then looked back at the apartment building door.
If she turned around and ran towards the convenience store, I’m afraid it would endanger the employee, but if she continued running towards the apartment building door, it would be as if she stabbed herself at the man.
bottle
Nina’s legs became stiff, unable to move, and her whole body trembled with fear, “Don’t come here… don’t come here… I… I’ll call the police.” Her voice trembled, hesitantly forming a coherent sentence.
Her hands and feet frantically took the phone out of her pocket, but before she could turn it on, the man roughly threw her phone to the ground. He squeezed Nina’s small wrist, causing her pain. Rough hands left finger marks on her wr
Nina tried her best to struggle but it seemed to be in vain. The more she struggled, the more she stimulated the animalistic nature of the man in front of her.
“Please! Let me out… let me out… anyone? Save me… help me…” Nina was in so much pain that she felt the tip of her nose sting as if a second later her tears would fall, her voice choked in her throat.
“Be good… let me help you…” the man laughed loudly, roughly pulling Nina’s hand even though she was struggling.
causing him to scream in Nina had no other choice. When he turned away, she bent down and bit the man’s hand hard pain. Nina took the opportunity to quickly run towards the apartment door, there must be something inside. guards on guard. But her strength could not overcome that big man. Nina only ran a few steps before he grabbed her hair and pulled her back, his big hand raised to slap her face. that. Nina was so scared that her face turned pale. She closed her eyes tightly as

Nina was startled and opened her eyes wide, Ethan’s tall back was shielding her. Nina is like a small rabbit that fits behind
Ethan.
Not knowing if Ethan was sober or still drunk, he rushed forward with his strong hand, tightly grasping the man’s collar, angrily punching him in the face like punching a punching bag According to his inertia, he fell to the ground, his eyes were dull. Before he could stand up, Ethan pressed him down and continued to raise his fist towards the man, causing him pain and he could only curl up and endure the battle. Ethan seemed to vent all his anger on the man, completely treating him as a punching bag to relieve himself.
Nina realized that if she continued like this, she was afraid she would beat him to death, so she ran to stop him.
“Ethan… Ethan… Stop… stop.”
Ethan’s eyes looking at the man were filled with scary red rays. That look Nina had never seen before made her a bit stunned, but when she went to intervene, she felt Ethan’s warm hand, and his eyes His look at her also immediately calmed down.

“Stop it… turn it over to the police… okay?” Nina gently advised Ethan.

Just then, the security guard in the building ran over in panic, “Are you two okay? Get up… I called the police, they will be here soon.” The security guard held Ethan’s arm and helped Nina help him stand up, looking extremely worried.
“I’m so sorry you two, it’s my fault… I’m sorry.”

The man groaned in pain, immediately attracting the security guard’s attention. He couldn’t help but lift his leg and kick the man, “S***m!” He kept cursing in his mouth, and then the security guard took out a long rope and wrapped it around the man’s body, tying him tightly.
“We’re okay, so please help with the rest, we’ll go home first.” Nina glanced at Ethan’s bleeding hand, worry and impatience clearly showing on his face.
“Okay, I will hand him over to the police, you two can rest assured.”
At the same time, the police siren also sounded, and Nina and Ethan entered the apartment building with peace of mind. Nina carefully helped Ethan into the elevator.
I don’t understand where Ethan got the strength to fight that thug, but now his whole body is like a limp string leaning towards Nina, making it difficult for her to take each step by step to help him into the house.
“Are you awake yet?”
Ethan leaned over and grabbed Nina’s shoulder blades, facing himself. Ethan gently turned Nina’s body to the left and then to the right. After making sure there were no injuries, he rested his body on the sofa, looking tired.
Nina quietly sighed, the fear still hadn’t gone away but the anxiety in her heart had increased. She turned around and was about to walk to the kitchen when Ethan’s call stopped her, “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to make hangover soup.”
Nina observed Ethan a few times, always feeling that he was very strange like there was something she didn’t know, but after all, he saved her life today, cooking him a bowl of hangover soup. There is also nothing unreasonable.
Ethan, after seeing Nina enter the kitchen opposite the living room where he was lying, saw that she was always in his sight, so he sat quietly, attentively watching Nina cook the hangover soup.
This was also the first time she made hangover soup. She didn’t know if the recipe was correct or not. She just followed her feelings. Being looked at by Ethan seemed to penetrate her whole body, making Nina a bit shy. Occasionally secretly glanced at him but caught Ethan’s eyes still staring at her. Unable to bear it, Nina had to raise her voice and ask, “Why do you keep looking at me like that?” Is there something on my face?”
Ethan didn’t answer, his eyes didn’t move away, Nina was speechless, she could only ignore him and continue what she was doing. A moment later, Nina carefully brought a bowl of hangover soup and placed it on the table. Ethan also very naturally and indifferently took the spoon and ate each delicious bite, even drinking the bowl of soup down to the last drop. During this process, Nina sat opposite and witnessed everything. She also remained silent and watched Ethan drink the entire bowl of soup.
“Done?” Nina spoke coldly.
Ethan nodded slightly, stood up, grabbed the bowl and spoon, and walked to the kitchen, which naturally felt like his home. Nina could only watch with wide eyes as he turned on the faucet and started cleaning up the mess that Nina had just made. go out. She suddenly realized that her normally neat and clean kitchen had become so messy just because she cooked one
dish.
Nina suddenly thought of something, like a jump in numbers, she thought of the taste of the hangover soup she had just cooked, she didn’t know if it was delicious or not, she didn’t know what it tasted like, but she watched Ethan drink it. There wasn’t even a single drop like that left, so maybe the taste wasn’t that bad. Nina silently predicted in her heart but still

couldn’t help but stand up and walk towards the kitchen. She didn’t just cook that one bowl of soup, there was still some left in the pot.
Nina secretly glanced at Ethan who was turning away from cleaning the sink, quickly opened the pot of soup, took a spoon, and brought it to his mouth to try drinking. Nina’s face immediately changed, becoming pale, her eyebrows furrowed, she didn’t understand what this dish was anymore, it had bean sprouts, beef, and ginger but the taste was really strange… salty and spicy. a little bitter. It was really hard to swallow. Nina turned to look at Ethan, her eyes confused, how could he eat an entire bowl like that?
Nina was shy and embarrassed. She didn’t know how to say anything. She just lowered her head and returned to her previous position on the sofa, silently watching Ethan clean up the mess she had created.
About 20 minutes later, the kitchen-returned to its original neat and clean appearance. It’s usually neat because Nina rarely cooks at home, her time is always prioritized for design. She only eats out or orders food to take home. Now she realizes that she is a very bad cook.
Ethan took off his apron, walked slowly back to the sofa, and sat down, facing Nina. He glanced at the watch on his hand, but it was almost 3 am.
“The hangover soup is so hard to swallow… why…?” Nina was speechless, in this situation, she just wanted to find a place to hide, out of Ethan’s eyes.
“Suits my taste.” The corners of Ethan’s mouth slightly curved into a smile, but quickly returned to normal.
Nina was stunned by the other person’s answer, “Then your taste is different.”
Ethan felt that it was quite late, and could not bear to let Nina betel next to him all night like that, so he reached for his jacket and stood up.
He was about to say goodbye when suddenly Nina on the opposite side walked around the table and walked in front of him, grabbing his right hand, which was still bleeding.
“Your hand is so injured and you still touch the water?” Guilt filled Nina’s mind
Without waiting for Ethan to answer, Nina opened the medicine cabinet in the house, took the first aid box, walked over, carefully cleaned the wound little by little, and then bandaged him. She doesn’t understand if he’s like iron or not. Even though his hand was so injured, he still helped her clean the kitchen. Does that mean she wants her to feel guilty for the rest of her life?
“It’s just a small wound.” Ethan’s warm words, on the contrary, made Nina want to cry. Tears fell without realizing it.
“I’m OK. Really.” Ethan continued to reassure Nina, his other hand gently raised, wanting to brush away the hair that was on her beautiful face but paused for a few seconds and finally decided to put his hand down.
Looking at the hand that Nina bandaged, Ethan not only did not feel pain but felt like a flower was blooming in his heart, the corners of his lips curled up into a smile.
“It doesn’t hurt?” Nina raised her big, round, sparkling eyes and looked straight into Ethan’s eyes. Seeing him shake his head, she didn’t question him anymore, so she leaned down, her cheeks heaving and blowing on his wound with a ray of hope that would help him calm down. painful.
Looking at the actions of the girl in front of him, Ethan laughed out loud, not expecting that there were times when she was so innocent and pure. His day was complete, it had been a long time since Ethan had been in the same mood as he was on this day, the day Ethan last saw Natalie.
Rest early!” Ethan retracted his gaze, and stood up, a little reluctant, but thinking of Natalie, he gave himself a reason to leave here.
Nina saw him stand up, glanced at the watch, and could understand the meaning of his words. She did not stop him, just

silently put the first aid box back in its original position, then walked straight to the door and opened it. door for you.
“The driver will pick you up, right?”
“That’s right, he’s waiting for me down there.”
Hearing that, Nina quickly moved through the glass to look down at the apartment complex’s campus. The familiar Mercedes had been waiting below for a long time. She sighed slightly but was somewhat reassured. She nodded slightly to say goodbye. separate from you.
Before leaving, Ethan turned around and said to her, “Remember to lock the door.”
