Life in this town is particularly quiet and slow-paced.
Many times, Cheng Lu strolled around the market town leisurely for a long time without seeing a few stalls move.
He Baoyun seemed to be very relieved of her and didn't care about her at all.
Cheng Lu quickly figured out the surrounding situation, and there was good news and bad news. The good news was that He Baoyun didn't seem to have any intention of harming her life; the bad news was that the islanders here really didn't understand the language, and she couldn't understand it at all.
I can't find anyone to help me escape from here.
What can she do? She is also desperate...
Returning from shopping one day, Cheng Lu asked: "Is there a hospital here?"
He Baoyun was preparing dinner and didn't even raise his head: "You know it, but when did the woman following Mr. Gu become so stupid? Haven't you figured it out these days?"
"That small clinic two miles away? Well, I'm overthinking it. Do you plan to spend the rest of your life here?" She leaned aside and watched He Baoyun prepare dinner.
Two pieces of bread, a pot of seafood soup cooked with butter, vegetables and salt, and several barbecued meats, which looked pretty good. However, after being here for several days, Cheng Lu ate almost the same every day.
She was already a little tired of the content.
"I don't mind if you want to lock me up, but you have to provide me with a good life. Also, I'm going to give birth in a few months. What about the prenatal check-ups during the period? You can't care less about human life, right?" she said.
She blinked and said, "Miss He, why are you so cruel after I called you sister-in-law a few times?"
The movement of He Baoyun's hand paused, and his face suddenly looked strange: "No need to call me sister-in-law, I have forgotten what happened before. You are a doctor, I believe in your ability."
"Doctors don't heal themselves. Don't you understand this?"
"Haha, if that's the case, you can only resign yourself to fate."
He Baoyun took a deep look at her and brought her portion of dinner in front of her: "Eat it, I added a lot of shrimp meat to your portion, which is nutritious enough."
I have to say, this woman's craftsmanship is pretty good.
Such a seemingly ordinary dinner tastes pretty good.
Cheng Lu shrugged and sat down to eat without saying anything.
No matter where she is, her first priority is to protect herself and her children.
She believed that Gu Ci would definitely find her. Before that, all she had to do was live well.
After eating, Cheng Lu wanted to go out.
He Baoyun frowned: "It's so late, a pregnant woman is so restless, and you still want to go out?"
"I wrote in the medical book before that there is a very rare medicinal material that can only be found at the seaside where the moonlight appears. You see it is close to the sea. The moonlight is so good tonight and it is still very early. Please accompany me out.
Just a moment, just an hour." Cheng Lu said while packing the small bag.
In just a few days here, she has already reconfigured a simple medicine box for herself.
The items inside are all bought in the market town. Although many of them do not meet the standards, they can be used in this situation.
Seeing that the other party didn't move, she added, "I'm pregnant now. Taking a walk after dinner is good for my health. You don't want to bring me here and kill two people later, right? If that's the case, you might as well do it now."
Give me a break."
He Baoyun didn't want her life.
So the other party was helpless: "Okay."
The moonlight tonight is really good, as bright as water, shining on the small town.
Cheng Lu walked briskly, not looking like a woman who was several months pregnant at all.
He Baoyun followed her, his eyes always falling on her.
Watching Cheng Lu groping on the roadside for a while, and picking unknown weeds for a while, in any case, these things looked the same in He Baoyun's eyes. After a while, they arrived at the beach.
The sea is particularly quiet and deep at night, with the sea breeze blowing gently and the waves rolling.
It was already a very peaceful night, and the boundary between sea and sky could not be seen at a glance.
Cheng Lu quickly found the medicinal plants he wanted, happily picked the young plants carefully, processed them, and put them into the medicine box he carried with him.
He Baoyun watched her busy here and there like a little bee, and couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you worried at all? If I really don't let you go back, you will have to live here for the rest of your life."
She smiled: "No. First, Gu Ci will find me; second, I don't think you want to trap me for a long time. You should have other purposes. Let me guess.
, are you waiting for someone here?"
He Baoyun seemed to have been exposed by someone, and his eyes suddenly became confused.
She subconsciously retorted: "No, don't talk nonsense."
"Oh, did I say it wrong? I'm so sorry." Cheng Lu continued to work, without stopping the movement of his hands, "By the way, after I lose it, besides Gu Ci and my family, they will look for me.
, there is another person who should also be looking for me, do you know who he is?"
This question was posed for a long time without getting an answer from He Baoyun.
Cheng Lu was puzzled for a while and looked back.
He Baoyun was seen facing the sea, his face was confused, and there was a touch of sadness between his eyebrows.
"Who are you thinking of?" she asked.
He Baoyun shook his head: "No."
"But your look has given you away. You are thinking of someone. This person is definitely not my brother, right?"
After a moment of silence, He Baoyun's voice was gritted: "You are really annoying. People who are too smart will not live long."
"It doesn't matter." Cheng Lu shrugged, "I have also seen death, so I am more willing to choose to live well."
Under the moonlight, Cheng Lu's eyes were as bright as water, as if they were filled with billions of stars in this silent night.
In the end, He Baoyun said nothing and accompanied her all the way back to her residence.
He Baoyun seemed to have changed a lot, and she began to offer to take Cheng Lu for prenatal check-ups.
There was a clinic in the small town, but doctors from outside regularly came to the clinic for consultations. Obstetrics and gynecology also provided equal treatment. Cheng Lu was relieved that there was a place for prenatal check-ups.
After coming out of the clinic, He Baoyun was a little envious: "What does it feel like to be pregnant?"
"It's a wonderful feeling to have a life connected to you by blood."
"very nice."
That night, Cheng Lu went to bed early.
While sleeping until midnight, she suddenly heard movement in the next room and quickly got up to check.
He Baoyun didn't know when he rolled under the bed and huddled up in pain.
"He Baoyun, what's wrong with you? Hey, wake up!"
Cheng Lu quickly took out the medicine box and gave the other party a sedative first to ensure that He Baoyun would not hurt herself. Then he carefully probed into the power to check her. Soon she discovered that the illness in He Baoyun's body was similar to that of Gu Ci.
The feeling on my body is similar, lingering and strong, with an eerie chill.
He purified He Baoyun a little and gave her some medicine.
