The continuous rain for several days has made the whole sky gloomy, as if a piece of it has collapsed, casting a layer of haze over people's hearts, which is quite sad for spring and autumn.
On the morning of the 12th day of the first lunar month, the sky suddenly cleared up in Yanjing. The long-lost warm sunshine relieved people's boredom and at the same time brought a touch of warmth and a fresh flavor to the city.
Fang Susu wiped Lin Ze's body as usual, and saw wisps of golden light diffusing in from the window. She walked to the window and opened the curtains, letting the sunlight that was enough to melt the cold shine on the smooth floor, illuminating the entire ward.
"It's been eight days."
Fang Susu wiped Lin Ze's rough fingers with a warm towel and murmured: "How long do you have to sleep? No matter how tired or sleepy you are, you should have slept enough."
The doctor once told Fang Susu a startling and dangerous news. When a normal person is in a coma like Lin Ze's, the body's functions will be slowed down to a state where it can only sustain life. It is absolutely impossible for a normal person to have sweaty palms like Lin Ze's every day. , this is a good sign and a bad sign,
A good sign is that Lin Ze's functions are getting stronger and stronger, and he may be able to break through this obstacle and wake up at any time.
The bad sign is that, judging from Lin Ze's current physical fitness, if he sweats for a long time, maintains a relatively intense operation for a long time, but cannot wake up, he will fall into another level of crisis, euthanasia.
Overall, Lin Ze's situation is very dangerous, but it is also an opportunity.
Originally, the doctor predicted that Lin Ze would probably become a vegetative state, with little chance of dying, and very slim chance of waking up. But now there was a turn for the better, and a difficult but unavoidable choice emerged.
or die,
Either wake up,
Heavy choices, terrible gambles,
But now that the matter has come to this, the only thing Fang Susu can do is to listen to the doctor's words and keep talking in his ears some words that may interest him and stimulate him.
So in the past few days, Fang Susu spent her time researching and thinking about things that Lin Ze was interested in. She drank water when her mouth was dry and drank coffee when she felt sleepy. She sat by the bed and muttered like a neurotic, harassing her into a deep coma. Lin Ze in
Day after day passed, Fang Susu would lie down on the bedside to sleep when she was sleepy, and talk when she woke up. In the end, her voice was so hoarse that she could not even hear what she was saying.
“So noisy,.”
An extremely weak voice came from the oxygen mask. It was buzzing and couldn't be heard clearly, but it seemed very harsh in this empty ward.
Fang Susu, who was in a daze, suddenly trembled. A hint of excitement flashed across her haggard face. Her scattered eyes quickly focused on Lin Ze's face. She held his rough palm in ecstasy and said louder: " You,,you’re awake.”
"Can you please lower your voice?" Lin Ze, who was lying stiffly on the hospital bed, opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Fang Susu sitting on the bedside, and then asked in a very evil voice, "Who are you and how do you grow? So ugly."
Ugly is definitely out of the question. At most, Fang Susu is quite downcast and haggard at the moment.
In the past ten days, a woman only took two baths, ate only one meal a day, and only a small amount, no makeup, no exercise, and was in a sad and depressed mood. How bright, charming, and charming could you expect her to be? Woolen cloth,
At this moment, Fang Susu's originally clean and neat hair was messy, her eye sockets were red and swollen, and her eyeballs were densely covered with bloodshot eyes. Her face was turned upside down. Even her lips, which were originally red and attractive, were quite dry and cracked. The mental and physical exhaustion of the past ten days had even made her mental outlook drop. to the bottom of the valley,
How could a woman in such a state expect to give Lin Ze a beautiful and charming face?
She was not angry, but smiling. A sincere smile appeared on her pale and slightly blue cheeks. It was neither beautiful nor touching, let alone a charming smile when she looked back, but it was heart-warming. heartwarming,
"When did I praise myself for being beautiful?" Fang Susu said with a gentle tone that could almost melt the iceberg,
Lin Ze's dark eyes, which were gradually regaining their vitality, quietly stared at the withered-looking woman beside the bed. He muttered at the corners of his cracked mouth for a long time, and finally said: "It's ugly, but it's ugly."
Fang Susu called the doctor. After multiple tests by the special care doctor and the patient, the doctor who had long been amazed by Lin Ze's willpower said with relief: "Mr. Lin is fine. He just needs to take care of his body." He was discharged from the hospital. Alas, you have worked hard these days. I think he really heard your call."
Fang Susu pursed her lips and just stared silently at Lin Ze who was being served by the nurses without saying a word.
An hour later, the nurses settled Lin Ze and turned to Fang Susu: "Miss Fang, if there is anything abnormal about Mr. Lin, please inform us immediately."
"Okay, thank you." Fang Susu nodded,
Returning to the bedside, Lin Ze, whose mental state had improved, stared at her slightly, unblinking, as if admiring a landscape painting, focused and attentive,
Fang Susu unnaturally smoothed her messy black hair and said, "You're going to hit me again."
"No." Lin Ze shook his head and smiled, "You look very good now, better than you did before."
"Good-looking." Fang Susu said with some confusion, "You think a woman with a sallow complexion, dull eyes, chapped lips, and messy hair looks good-looking."
"Yeah, it looks good." Lin Ze nodded sincerely,
"Have a good rest." Fang Susu helped him tidy up the quilt and said, "The National Security Bureau is going to resume your position. From now on, you will no longer be a non-staff member. When you can be discharged from the hospital, you will go to the National Security Bureau to complete the procedures."
"Because I made the first success this time." Lin Ze said jokingly,
"No." Fang Susu shook her head and said, "Madam helped you fight for it."
"If it weren't for the fact that the old director refused to let him go, I would have really planned to fool around with my wife." Lin Ze stared at the ceiling and said sadly, "Humans, I have been confused all my life, and I don't know what I am trying to do."
"You have a clear conscience." Fang Susu replied, "You did it, and you did it better than most people."
"Don't be too busy comforting me yet." Lin Ze glanced at Fang Susu's pale and blue face and said, "You have been staying here since I was hospitalized."
"Yeah." Fang Susu nodded candidly,
"How long have I been unconscious?" Lin Ze asked,
"Ten days." Fang Susu said,
Lin Ze paused,
Looking at Fang Susu in silence, after a long time, he sighed softly: "Go back and rest. I can guarantee that you have reached the limit."
"I'll come see you tomorrow." Fang Susu nodded, stood up, turned around and walked towards the door.
"Beauty." Lin Ze suddenly called from behind,
"Yeah." Fang Susu turned back blankly,
"Thank you." Lin Ze said solemnly, "Thank you for your efforts during these days. If you persevere, I can do the same."
"You're welcome." A smile appeared on Fang Susu's pale cheek, "We are partners."
,,,,
It was Fang Susu who took Lin Ze out of the hospital. Just when this cold-blooded intelligence agent was planning to drive Lin Ze directly to the National Security Bureau, Lin Ze, who had just recovered from a serious illness, asked her to go straight to the State Guesthouse.
The first person he saw after being discharged from the hospital was Fang Susu, but the first phone call he received when he got out of bed was from Elizabeth.
As for the senior officials of the National Security Bureau, they only conveyed the news of his reinstatement through Fang Susu. No one came to express condolences or called him.
Lin Ze is not a stingy man, and he does not blame the senior management for their attitude, but he can distinguish who really cares about him and who is just doing superficial things.
So he asked Fang Susu to drive to the State Guesthouse to meet the woman who, even though she couldn't come to visit him in the hospital due to time constraints and status, she always kept his condition in mind.
Diaoyutai was named after Wanyan Jing, Emperor Zhangzong of the Jin Dynasty, went fishing again. It has a history of more than 800 years. Since its construction, the State Guesthouse located here has received nearly a thousand people including prime ministers, kings and presidents from various countries. It is a place popular with various countries. A place that attracts the attention of the people and the media,
Elizabeth, who was supposed to live here, was staying in a hotel outside for personal reasons. After the last egregious assassination, she had to move back to the State Guesthouse. On the one hand, China could not tolerate the assassination being caused by Elizabeth; on the other hand, It was the British side that also put pressure on this goddess,
What she symbolizes and represents is not an individual, but the British Empire. Her words and deeds should echo her status as Queen of England. Overly flamboyant measures will cause international panic.
After parking the car, Fang Susu and Lin Ze walked side by side to Elizabeth's residence. Perhaps the goddess had notified her in advance and there were not many obstacles along the way. Otherwise, Lin Ze wanted to enter this house with great political symbols. The meaningful state guesthouse is as difficult as climbing to the sky,
"Mr. Lin, congratulations on your discharge." Eileen, who was waiting outside the corridor, said with a smile, "Madam has been waiting for you for a long time."
"Well, I'll go right away." Lin Ze smiled and nodded,
Fang Susu did not follow her. She could see that Elizabeth had no interest in meeting her. Even her personal guard Irene was expelled. It seemed that she wanted to have a private chat with her savior.
Walking to the door, Lin Ze knocked lightly,
I don’t know if it was because he survived the catastrophe, but unlike the last time he saw Elizabeth in the hotel, his mood at the moment was surprisingly peaceful, as if he was about to see an old friend for many years, not a hero who was the king of a country. queen,
"Mr. Lin, please come in."
The woman who opened the door was wearing a long black silk dress. She looked like an elegant and proud dark elf. Coupled with her otherworldly personal charm and stunning appearance, the moment she caught a glimpse, it brought a huge visual impact to Lin Ze.
Lin Ze tried his best to suppress the suddenness in his heart, slowly entered the room, and sat on the sofa opposite his wife.
"Mr. Lin, are your injuries better?" Elizabeth made tea for him personally and asked with concern on her face.
"Thank you, Madam, for your concern. I have basically recovered." Lin Ze took the tea respectfully and said implicitly,
"That's good." Elizabeth turned around and sat on the sofa. A hint of narrow-mindedness that was incompatible with her status flashed across her beautiful and somewhat blurred cheeks, and she said politely, "What if I let Mr. Lin be my personal bodyguard again? It would be a bit excessive.”
"No." Lin Ze said with a normal expression, "It is my responsibility to protect my wife."
"Well, then you wait for me to change clothes, and we will go out in a while." Elizabeth said with a smile.
"Now." Lin Ze glanced at the time and said a little helplessly, "I saw the schedule for Madam's visit to China last time. Shouldn't there be a meeting today?"
"There is a saying in China called telepathy, which may not be appropriate here. But when I met with your country yesterday, I had a vague feeling that Mr. Lin would be discharged from the hospital today, so I completed the meeting ahead of schedule." Elizabeth said with a graceful attitude.
He stood up gracefully and said, "I will return to China tomorrow. As a Chinese, Mr. Lin has the obligation to take me around this forty-nine city with profound cultural heritage."
Lin Ze was stunned, then rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly: "But Madam's identity..."
"In ancient China, emperors visited privately in disguise. Is it possible that I, an Englishman, am still afraid of being recognized?" Elizabeth said with a smart smile,
"Everything depends on Madam."
Elizabeth's beautiful dark green eyes were full of smiles, wrapped in a wisp of refreshing fragrance, she turned around gracefully and slowly entered the master bedroom to change clothes.
