Derek's explanation continued, but the follow-up words had gradually evolved into echoes, and finally disappeared completely, until Derek turned to leave, and Cody and Caleb and others were hugging and celebrating each other, Those sobbing faces embraced Renly one after another, using all their movements to express their joy and happiness.
Renly still responded politely and appropriately, but he always understood that there was no sense of authenticity.
Paul, are you alive
"Renly?" A timid voice came from his ear, interrupting Renly's thoughts. The floating soul returned to his brain from a distance of 18,000 miles. He turned his head and saw Mei. flower.
Paul's family was celebrating, but Meadows didn't join in. Instead, she stared at Renly with pure and stubborn eyes, "Dad, are you all right...?" She needed an answer, not the doctor's , but Renly's, and it seems that only if Renly admits it, she is willing to believe it.
Looking at Meadow's Paul-like eyes, the chaos and confusion deep in Renly's mind disappeared quietly. He nodded lightly, tried his best to show a shallow smile, and gave a positive answer, as if he was aware of Meadow's Not sure, Renly said again, "Yes, Paul's all right."
Mei Duo covered her face with her hands, and burst into tears with a "wow". She couldn't say a word, she just cried. All the grievances and fears, all the worries and unease were all released at this moment. She just stood there and released all her emotions.
The cry was distressing.
Renly took Mei Duo into his arms with both hands, patted Mei Duo's back lightly, and whispered, "Paul is fine."
It seems that he is convincing Meadow, and he seems to be convincing himself.
Mei Duo still couldn't utter a word, so she cried like this, as if she had lost the whole world but finally found it again. The kind of heart-piercing resurrection, crying so much aggrieved, she buried her cheeks in Renly's chest, wantonly releasing sadness and pain.
The cry fell in Renly's ears, and his eyes turned slightly red.
Paul, survived.
Paul, survive!
God, oh God!
"Paul, it's alright." Renly repeated softly, his voice became dry as he spoke, but he knew that he couldn't fall, and Meadows still needed him. So, he choked up his voice, straightened his waist forcefully, forced all his emotions together, and used his shoulders to support the weight of the entire night. Remember: he can't fall yet.
Mei Duo cried so hard that she almost lost her strength, and finally fell asleep in Renly's arms groggyly.
Renly stood there, his muscles were stiff and even a little numb, and he could hardly move. With the help of Cheryl and Caleb, he carried Meado to the rest sofa next to him; while Renly still stood there. Ground - because his muscles were a little numb and he couldn't move for a short time, he waved to Cody, indicating that he was fine, just need to slow down.
At this time, the consciousness in my mind finally slowly woke up, all the memories began to churn in my mind, until Derek confirmed Paul's survival, the trembling of fear began to invade wave after wave, Renly I just felt scared after a while, my knees were a little weak, and I could hardly support my body. The piercing pain in my waist muscles suddenly lifted the seal, and it rushed like a tidal wave, leaving no room for reaction at all. I tried my best to maintain my own body. Standing posture, but found no trace of strength to find.
Just when Ren Li was almost unsteady, a soft and tenacious force came from around him, supporting his body, and a faint warmth from the palm of the fingers intertwined, making the slightly trembling muscles slowly. After calming down and turning his head, he saw Rooney's petite and sturdy body, standing firmly behind him, with bright light shining in those eyes.
The smile on Rooney's mouth rose slightly, and she said softly, "Paul survived." Her voice was also slightly trembling, with a slightly nasal tone, but her smile was extremely firm and bright, as if she was giving Renly more confidence and confidence. strength.
Renly opened his mouth and tried to say something, but found that the voice was stuck in his throat, he could only nod his head slightly in embarrassment, agreeing, his nose was slightly sour, and all the coffee he had just drank had turned bitter, from the tip of his tongue. All the way to the stomach, all the soreness and pain became clear again.
Paul survived.
Letting out a long, long breath, Ren Li's tense shoulders finally loosened, and the tall and straight posture also relaxed slowly. Turning around, Ren Li opened her arms and pushed Lu Li. Ni hugged her, her body weight fell slightly, and then whispered in Rooney's ear, "I can't stand anymore, help me sit down, okay?"
Rooney only felt a rush of warmth in her eyes, but she didn't have time to take into account her emotions. She quickly raised her right hand, supported Renly's body, and forced herself to come to the side calmly, supporting Renly to sit comfortably. down.
Ren Li held on to the last bit of strength and did not let himself completely lose control. After slowly sitting down, the sharp and surging pain hit like a torrential rain. He couldn't even tell whether it was his waist, thigh or something else. I only felt that my entire head was dazed, I just felt that I was in the midst of the stormy sea and had nowhere to escape.
At this time, Renly was like a hot stove. Rooney was just flustered, but she took a deep breath, calmed down, and turned to look in the direction of Andy and Roy, "Andy, Renly seems to have a fever. , can find a wheelchair and we'll take him to the emergency room."
Andy and Roy quickly exchanged glances and hurried forward.
In a trance, Renly could feel the chaos around him, and he tried to speak, saying that he was fine, just a little tired and sleepy, and he could recover after a good night's rest; but all the words murmured in his throat, vague He muttered words that he couldn't understand at all, and then fell into the darkness like this.
…
buzzing.
Woohoo.
There was a continual messy noise on the eardrum, like the echo of a valley, surging in the whole space in a distant and empty space, as if thousands of flies were swarming at the same time, making people try to escape, but Found that flies are everywhere, and they have nowhere to escape.
The eyelids seemed to weigh thousands of pounds, and they could not be lifted heavily. There was a faint pain in the back of the head, and the nerve in the spine seemed to be pulled one after another, making the muscles all over the body tense, and there was a faint burst of pain. The restless, limp limbs can't feel much power.
Finally, the eyes finally opened, and the bright white light projected through the gap between the eyes, which was a little dazzling, but the slight tingling made the head a little awake. Instead, the eyes were opened smoothly, and then the line of sight stopped A little clearer.
Looking into his eyes, Renly saw Rooney lying next to the hospital bed, with short brown chestnut hair hanging down loosely over the ears, her stubborn and cold facial lines looming, revealing a resolute temperament, like an empty valley. The orchid that broke out of the ground looks delicate but contains wildness.
Renly raised his right hand and gently traced Rooney's brows and eyes with his fingertips. A slight smile was gently drawn at the corners of his mouth. His eyes became gentle like this, but he didn't want to be so small. The action still woke Rooney, she opened her eyes suddenly, sat up straight, looked around vigilantly, and finally met Renly's gaze.
Rooney rubbed her eyes, her voice full of surprise, "Are you awake?"
"Yeah." Renly replied softly, and then realized that his voice was so hoarse, that he was seriously dehydrated due to a fever, and raised his eyes to look around.
Rooney reacted immediately, took the water bottle beside the hospital bed and put it beside Renly's mouth, which made Renly laugh dumbly, but the corners of his mouth were still slightly heavy and could not be fully raised, "I just It's just a small cold, not so severe that I can't do these things."
"Ha. Ha." Rooney laughed dryly, ignoring Renly's protest, handed the water bottle over with both hands, and put the straw in Renly's mouth, watching carefully as Renly swallowed a few times. After drooling, he removed the kettle and asked in a low voice, "Do you still need it?"
Renly shook his head, but asked another important question, "What about Paul? How is he doing now?"
Rooney reluctantly put the kettle on the bedside table again, "Why don't you worry about yourself first? If you're not in a good condition, how can you take care of Paul?" Seeing Renly trying to defend, Rooney was He widened his eyes, expressing his determination with his eyes.
Renly didn't protest.
Rooney continued, "What the hell happened to your body? Why didn't all of us know you were hurt? Not even Nathan?"
It happened so fast that there was no chance. What's more, Renly didn't think it was a big deal, it was just hanging Wia for a few hours. "What, does the doctor say the problem is serious?"
Rooney was at a loss for words, Renly always grasped the key - indeed, the doctor said that the problem was not serious, the main problem was bruises, just need to relax the muscles through massage, take a hot bath, and there is no problem; In this case, it's just that the muscles are stiff after being overworked, and Renly has been standing for several hours, and the muscles are as hard as a rock, and they can recover after a good rest.
As for coma, low-grade fever is the main reason. From physical strength to energy, there was a serious overdraft. I didn't rest well all afternoon and all night. After the tense nerves suddenly loosened, I fell into a coma. I hung a drip and got a good night's sleep. problem.
Rooney's silence fell into Renly's eyes, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Renly didn't give up, but added, "How is Paul?"
Rooney shook her head helplessly, but she still couldn't hold Renly, "Paul is still in a coma. Ryan just came over to visit Paul and then to you. The doctor said that Paul's operation was very successful, but his brain The surgery requires a longer recovery time, and for a while, as long as Paul wakes up, everything will be fine."
"Reborn Financial Giants"
"Yeah." Renly nodded lightly, raised his head and looked at the surrounding environment, he was just sleeping, and there was no appearance of the drip stand next to him, which meant that his treatment was over, "I How long have you been asleep?"
"Twelve hours," Rooney replied. "It's only three o'clock in the afternoon. It's only half a day since Paul's surgery, and he still needs more time to recover slowly. Don't worry, Paul has already made it through the most difficult stage. coming."
Renly still didn't feel real.
From his escape in Iceland, to the reappearance of yesterday's nightmare, to today's escape from death, everything happened too quickly and too fiercely. He thought everything was accounted for, but after all, he was slammed into the head. In the middle of nowhere, what now? Has Paul's fate really changed
"I'm hungry. Did the doctor say anything about my diet?" Renly regained his composure.
Rooney still had a suspicious look - Renly's behavior in the past 24 hours was so abnormal that she had to question it.
Renly's mouth twitched into a small smile, "I need to eat something before I go to visit Paul in the critically ill lounge. I know, only family members can go in now, I just want to make sure outside. … to make sure Paul is still lying there unharmed, I need to check with my eyes.”
The plain words had no special ups and downs and emotions, but Rooney's eyes couldn't help but turn sour again. She could feel the fear and fragility hidden behind the words, which reminded her of when Heather died.
Rooney nodded heavily, "The doctor said that you need to eat some light food. Nathan has already prepared it in advance. I will let him heat it up in the microwave now."
After speaking, Rooney stood up and was about to leave, but she didn't want to, and her right hand was held.
It's Renly's right hand.
Renly's broad palm wrapped around Rooney's right hand, and those palms regained their temperature, a touch of warmth, he just sketched lightly in her palm, and the numb touch fell softly, making the palm It was slightly itchy, and then he traced a light trajectory along the palm of his hand and slowly escaped from the fingertips.
She couldn't help but slightly raised her fingertips, and the two people's fingers were entangled like this, pinching slightly, leaving the temperature of each other's palms before releasing them.
No language is worth a thousand words.
