After Li Yan came out of the hospital, he went to a nearby small supermarket to buy mineral water for Mi Ruo. On his way back, he heard the siren at the entrance of the hospital in the distance. He felt something was wrong and hurried to the gate.
The police refused to let in, saying that there were wanted criminals who had escaped.
He was extremely anxious, Mi Ruo was still inside, if...
He didn't dare to think about that possibility, so he finally climbed in through the open window. Once inside, he found that it was a warehouse, which seemed to be a morgue. After passing through a corridor and several entrance halls, he walked from the basement to a
upstairs, and finally arrived at the lobby of the hospital.
Mi Ruo seemed to be frightened and stood there blankly. Seeing that one of the criminals was about to approach her, he gritted his teeth and rushed over, hugging her body and dragging her to a safe corner.
She was so frightened that she shouted, and he could only comfort her, "Shh-don't be afraid, Mi Ruo, look carefully, it's me!" Li Yan held the frightened Mi Ruo tightly in his arms and soothed her softly.
.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" She finally couldn't help but cry out in grievance. She had to admit that she still felt inexplicably safe in his warm embrace. It seemed that with him around, she would no longer be afraid.
Mi Ruo cried loudly. Although Li Yan was by her side, she was still trembling all over. All this was like a childhood nightmare. There was no other way for her to escape from the nightmare except crying.
When she regained consciousness, she was already at the police station. Because the injured important criminal escaped, the police learned from the surveillance video that she was the only witness who had seen the criminal's face.
She didn't have a very good impression of the police back home. When she arrived in the United States, in addition to the familiarity among her compatriots, the greedy faces of the customs police when she entered the country made her first impression of them 50% negative.
Discount.
Fortunately, Li Yan was there, but he couldn't accompany her to the hearing room. When she found herself alone in a closed hearing room, she was inevitably a little panicked.
There was only one long table and two chairs in the room, and the bright overhead lights made her feel a little dizzy.
The cerebral cortex began to become active, and the memory gradually recovered. The scene of gunfire and bullets just returned to her eyes. She buried her head in her arms and tried to control it, but she could not stop the trembling of her body, and the chair creaked as she shook it.
The policeman opposite did not show any sympathy for her. He coughed and began a routine interrogation in English——
"name?"
"If." She held her forehead and reluctantly muttered.
"Family name?"
"rice."
"Country of Citizenship?"
"The People's Republic of China."
"identity?"
"..." This stopped her in her tracks.
The other person raised his eyebrows and asked again, "Address?"
"..." To be honest, she didn't even know that she was under house arrest. How did she know where that poor place was?!
The other party seemed to have no intention of letting her go, and kept asking, "Who is that man outside?"
"...ex-husband."
The policeman frowned, "What are you doing at St. Peter's Hospital?"
"Nonsense! Of course it's for medical treatment!" Mi Ruo was a little angry. Did he regard her as a witness or a suspect?
Seeing the obvious displeasure on her face, the man opposite him loosened his tightly stern face slightly, and opened his mouth to reveal a smile. Only then did Mi Ruo notice that the handsome guy with an upright face was sitting opposite him, with a pair of deep eyebrows under the brim of his hat.
The eyes are like the black sea under the sun, blue and clear.
He said: "Sorry, Miss Mi, we are just doing a routine thing."
Seeing a slight change in his attitude, Mi Ruo's anger calmed down. After thinking about it, she decided to cooperate with him, so she tried her best to recall the characteristics of the man. Unfortunately, except for the gray trench coat on his body and a prosthetic eye, she could not find anything else.
Can't remember anything anymore.
When Mi Ruo came out of the hearing room, she caught a glimpse of the back of Li Yan's head. An idea suddenly came to her mind. She turned around and whispered to the handsome policeman: "Sir, I want to call the police. That man put me and my daughter under house arrest.
Please help me..."
However, before the other party could reply, a deep voice sounded from behind Mi Ruo, "Are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
Upon hearing his tone, no one would have thought that he was a husband who would put his wife under house arrest. A narrow smile appeared on the handsome policeman's face, and he seemed to treat Mi Ruo as a little wife who was at odds with her husband.
She suddenly became angry...
After Li Yan helped Mi Ruo get into the car, her expression was still dull and she seemed to be still a little unresponsive.
"You haven't answered my question yet. Are you feeling better?" He put his arm around her waist, rubbed it, and asked softly.
"It's okay, I miss my daughter, go quickly." Mi Ruo lowered her eyelids slightly to hide the feeling of loss in her heart. The plan was completely disrupted, and she almost lost her life. Today, the whole day was spent.
How unlucky!
"Why did you run to the first floor alone? Weren't you allowed to wander around?" Li Yan suddenly asked, with a hint of displeasure in his words.
When Mi Ruo heard this, she broke into a cold sweat. She almost forgot about this and quickly made an excuse, "I wanted to go to the toilet. It was too crowded upstairs, so I went downstairs..."
Li Yan nodded and said nothing more.
Mi Ruo's face looked panicked all the way back, and she kept praying in her heart. I wonder if the lie will be exposed by him? I hope he doesn't discover anything...
But Li Yan thought she was stimulated by what happened in the afternoon, and looked at her worriedly several times. He had the urge to hold her in his arms, but he was afraid of scaring her, so he resisted the urge.
An impulse.
The car quickly stopped downstairs in the villa, and Mi Ruo still didn't come back to her senses. It wasn't until Li Yan opened the car door for her that she realized that she had arrived. She hurriedly stretched her legs to get out of the car, but unexpectedly she missed the step and fell down.
On Li Yan's body.
"Why are you so absent-minded? Are you still scared?" He cooperatively held her in his arms and pressed her forehead against hers.
"No." God knows what she is really worried about.
Mi Ruo shook her head. In fact, the moment Li Yan appeared, she felt much better. No matter how scared she was, she knew that there was someone beside her who could protect her and rely on her.
Li Yan stretched out his hand to lift her chin and looked into her eyes steadily, "Mi Ruo..."
Mi Ruo was forced to raise her head and look at him, her deep pool-like eyes filled with infinite affection, clinging to her, making it impossible for her to escape, but there was a voice in her heart telling her that this shouldn't be the case.
Yes, you should obviously hate him. You can't afford to be hurt or lose. The consequences of being with him can only be pain. Do you want to feel pain again?
No, you can no longer afford the pain or injury, because you can no longer bear the pain of losing your daughter! Wake up, Mi Ruo!
Suddenly, another voice told her again——
Mi Ruo, just admit it, you have always known, even when you were preparing to marry Luo Yuan three years ago, you knew that the person you truly love in your heart has always been him!
