The male caregivers and nurses who were originally looking at Shen Ci also helped to chase her. The woman giggled and turned back in three steps. Her white and messy hair almost covered her eyes, but she still knew how to stuff pills into her mouth. When I ran into the rain at the border fortress, the white medicine fell all over the floor...
Xia Yu stayed there completely. There was no unexpected scene, but her messy white hair was in his sight. Soon the sick woman and the nurse ran away. The small door next to it was still open. Xia Yu heard the door open. There was a louder scream, and she limped to the door. She saw a large group of female patients in blue coats running from the other end of the corridor, laughing or howling, showing their teeth and claws, pushing and blocking each other, with ferocious faces.
How to describe the scene at that time? Xia Yu stood dumbly at the door, and the word "zombie out of the cage" suddenly came to her mind!
It is no exaggeration to say that a large group of female patients crowded out the door, followed by the roaring and screaming of the nursing staff, and someone shouted with a walkie-talkie.
"A patient has escaped in Ward 17!"
"I'm going to die, rebelling!"
"Hurry up and find more people!"
"Door, door, close first!"
A bunch of madmen and a bunch of nurses chased them all into the rain, pushing and shoving, screaming and cursing. Some fell down and others stepped on people on the ground and continued running forward. The originally dead hospital area seemed to be in a commotion all of a sudden. Get up, and the pills that were scattered on the ground were washed away by the rain and turned into white liquid...
Xia Yu's back was already sweating. This was not a scene she could have imagined before. She raised her head and looked at the corridor in front of her. The door was still open, but there was no one in the corridor. The cold wind was pouring in from the outside. Then, she slowly walked in. There were no lights in the entire corridor, and only a little light from outside the door came in, so it looked dark and cold. There was a sour, musty smell in the air, probably because it had been closed for many years. Caused by lack of sunlight.
Dragging my aching left foot through the corridor, the whole building was quiet, as if everyone had run away, and there were still high walls on both sides of the corridor. Xia Yu turned a corner and finally saw light coming from a room in front of her. The door was open and the words "Activity Room" were hung on it.
Xia Yu held on to the wall and moved over. The activity room was actually a very large hall. There were some tables, chairs and benches arranged here and there, two rows of half-person-high cabinets, and several bedpans in the corners. The cold and humid air A strong fishy odor can be smelled.
After silently breathing a sigh of relief, Xia Yu held back her nausea and took two more steps into the activity room. The inconvenience of her left foot caused her to accidentally bump into the chair next to her.
"Squeak!" followed by someone in the corner asking: "Are you all hiding?"
Xia Yu's scalp went cold. She thought that all the patients in the activity room had left. She didn't notice that there was another person lying on the wall next to the cabinet. She glanced across a few tables. She should be a woman in her fifties. , with half-long hair hanging loose, a thin figure, and wearing the same blue gown as other patients.
What was she doing lying on the wall? Hide and seek
Xia Yu walked over curiously and patted her shoulder gently, "Hello..."
The woman lying on the wall turned around and removed her hands from her eyes...
Xia Yu felt her heart pounding, and her throat seemed to be blocked by something hard. The woman in front of her stared blankly into Xia Yu's eyes, and the lights overhead were dazzling.
She had seen photos of Ma Jiang, taken when she was a servant in the Shen family, and the most recent photos Zhou Yan took of her last time, so Xia Yu recognized her as Ma Ma Jiang.
Xia Yu gritted her teeth and gently held her hand, which was cold and thin. She rolled up the cuffs of her coat, revealing her thin arms, which were crisscrossed with bruises and scars. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then opened her eyes again. The woman in front of her was still looking at her blankly.
Squeezing her fingers tightly, Xia Yu finally moved her lips, "Mother Jiang!"
It was already more than half an hour later when Zhou Yan found Xia Yu. She was squatting on the corridor at the door of Ward 17. The small door next to her had already been closed. The female patients who ran out were all caught one by one, roaring or hissing, and some broke free and tried to escape again. He was tied up with a rope by a male caregiver and dragged back. Some people laughed, some cried, and some bit the rope and jumped on it...
It was raining all over the sky, and gloomy dark clouds were hovering over the entire rehabilitation center. Xia Yu squatted at the door of Ward 17 and watched everything happening here, feeling chilled and trembling all over. Until Zhou Yan ran over and wrapped his coat around her.
"Why don't you find a place to take shelter from the rain?" Xia Yu seemed unable to hear. He squatted on the ground and hugged his knees tightly, clenching his hands into fists. Zhou Yan was a little worried, "Xia Yu?"
The people on the ground didn't respond, so he could only squat down and ask, "Are you scared? Someone ran out of the ward just now, but he's fine now."
Xia Yu didn't speak, and didn't even change her movements.
"Look up at me."
Zhou Yan's voice was gentle, but the woman in front of him didn't respond. The rain kept pouring down on the two of them. Xia Yu was already soaked all over. In the end, Zhou Yan had no choice but to try to hold her waist and pull her Help him up. I thought she would hide as usual, but this time there was no resistance. He was hugged by Zhou Yan obediently. His left foot was free, and his body was leaning against Zhou Yan's chest, stiff. The face is deserted. Hollow and shaking.
Zhou Yan sighed deeply, wrapped Xia Yu in clothes and walked out of the rehabilitation center without asking any questions. After finally getting Xia Yu into the car, Zhou Yan immediately turned on the heater and took out a tissue to wipe the rain off her face. However, during the whole process, Xia Yu remained motionless and stared blankly at something, her face turned pale. His pupils were dull and dilated. From Zhou Yan's professional point of view, he was probably overly frightened.
"Were you injured inside just now?" But the person in the passenger seat still showed no reaction and clenched his fists tightly. The rain outside the window was getting heavier. Zhou Yan had no choice but to start the car and leave first.
He took Xia Yu back to his clinic. It was already past the off-duty time and all the employees in the clinic had left. Zhou Yan helped her into the lounge at the end of the corridor.
Her face was still pale, but she was no longer shaking as much as she was in the rehabilitation center. Zhou Yan took her to sit in front of the tatami, then went to the bathroom and brought out a dry towel, and helped her dry her face and hair little by little.
The smoke from the incense burner on the table curled up. The whole process was quiet and long. Xia Yu's destroyed thoughts finally came back little by little. His eyes moved. Zhou Yan sighed softly and asked: "Should I not take you with me?" Go to that kind of place?"
Xia Yu seemed to have come back from the gate of hell, with sweat on her back. Her eyes moved back from the hollow, and finally fell into Zhou Yan's warm and sunny eyes.
The tip of her heart trembled, Zhou Yan chuckled, raised his hand and touched the corners of her clammy eyes.
"Spread your hands!" His voice was as pleasant as ever. Xia Yu shook her head. Zhou Yan had no choice but to pinch her fingers. She shrank back and was held by Zhou Yan, "Spread it out and be obedient!"
That day, the Baijiang family held an engagement ceremony in Ruyilu and broke up on bad terms. After that, Xia Yu said something domineering to Mrs. Jiang. Jiang An is naturally happy, but Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Tao are very happy to complain to the media.
Coupled with Shen Mo's operation, various reports were overwhelming for a while. Shen Yan was a little worried about Xia Yu, so he dialed her number, but no one answered the call after ringing for a long time.
Zhou Yan was reading information in the office. The cell phone in his coat pocket had rang many times, but no one answered it. Xia Yu has been in a very low mood since he came out of the rehabilitation center. He was almost unconsciously carried to the car by Zhou Yan, so when the guard took away his mobile phone and other confiscated items, he put them all into his pocket.
Now that the cell phone in his pocket kept ringing, Zhou Yan could only stop working, walked over and took off the wet coat from the hanger.
The ringtone rang for the Nth time. Zhou Yan took out his phone and took a look. The word "husband" flashed on the screen.
Shen Yan’s phone number? Zhou Yan pressed the answer button and answered, "Hello?"
The other party was silent for a while, and it took a while before he spoke, "Are you Zhou Yan?"
"Xia Yu is in my clinic." Zhou Yan said.
Shen Yan came very quickly, walked in, walked up the steps covered with moss on both sides, walked through the corridor lined with many green plants, and finally knocked on the door of Zhou Yan's office.
"Come in!" Shen Yan pushed open the door and entered, and the faint scent of agarwood came from the shop.
The man behind the desk looked up from his papers.
"Coming?" He always looked calm and gentle.
Shen Yan nodded: "Where is she?"
Zhou Yan took off his glasses and looked outside the door, "In the lounge in front."
Shen Yan did not leave immediately, but stood at the door and glanced at Zhou Yan, "Didn't I tell you? You can just discuss that matter with me, but you actually took her to that place."
He didn't even know what to say to Zhou Yan, knowing that he was anxious. But after so many years of waiting, do you still care about waiting a little longer? He actually refused to listen and got Xia Yu involved.
Yes, she is bolder than ordinary girls. But she’s also a girl, right? That kind of place, let alone girls, even ordinary men would not dare to go there. He was simply playing the piano randomly.
"But Xia Yu also wants to go. I really didn't expect her to go to that place." Zhou Yan actually blamed himself a little. He had originally agreed with Director Hu to bring Ma Jiang to them alone.
Xia Yu went to the back and was really out of his reach.
"I've thought of everything for you, and you're still running around for so many years?" After Shen Yan finished speaking, he strode towards the lounge.
Zhou Yan lowered his head and smiled, watching Shen Yan walk to the lounge in front. Shen Yan opened the door and walked in. The man sitting on the chair pinched his eyebrows with his hands. He was a little tired after so many years.
Shen Yan gently opened the door of the lounge in front of him. It was warm inside, with light citrus and bergamot fragrance in the air. The interior was filled with a set of Japanese-style furniture, including cushioned tatami mats and low cabinets. Flowers were arranged, and the calligraphy and painting "Remnant Heart" was hung on the wall.
Xia Yu stood in front of the calligraphy and painting, with her back to the door, and a pot of Clivia placed on the cabinet next to her. Hearing the noise, Xia Yu turned around, holding a cup of hot water in her hand. She was still wearing Zhou Yan's clothes, a light beige pullover that hung loosely on her thin body.
She was a little surprised, "Why are you here?"
Shen Yan frowned and walked in: "Go back with me first!"
Xia Yu followed Shen Yan out of the lounge, and Zhou Yan just came out of the office with Shen Ci's bag and mobile phone in his hands.
"Feeling better?" he asked softly.
Xia Yu felt embarrassed and lowered her head: "Much better, thank you!"
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "You are so polite to me again, I didn't do anything."
Shen Yan coughed slightly from behind and walked over: "I will take her back first, and the clothes she is wearing will be returned to you another day."
"Why are you so polite?"
With a forced smile, Shen Yan took Shen Ci's bag and mobile phone from Zhou Yan, "Let's go first, let's eat together!"
