Pollution throughout the territory - #303 - Chapter 299 Insect Movement

At nine o’clock in the evening, after finishing coding today’s update, Xia Ren took a taxi to Siya Hospital with Lily.

“Brother Xia.”

Zhao Tianliang had been waiting for a long time, and the three of them came to the ward together.

“Brother Xia is really miraculous. After your treatment, my daughter’s condition is much more stable now.”

Zhao Tianliang continued on the side.

After taking a drop of anti-pollution liquid in the morning, Zhao Rou’s mental state improved a lot, her face was not as pale as before, and she looked like she was getting better.

But Xia Ren knew that the real cause of the disease had not yet been found. The source of pollution in her body was still hiding somewhere, waiting to reappear at any time.

Zhao Tianliang completely trusted Xia Ren at this time. There were no other doctors in the ward, but for some reason, he called Yu Jingjing, a forensic medicine professional, over again.

It’s obvious that the other party can’t help at all.

It is indeed the behavior of politicians.

Xia Ren knew without thinking that Zhao Tianliang probably saw his attitude towards Jingjing in the morning and misunderstood something. But now in front of Yu Jingjing, he couldn’t say anything more. He could only pretend that he didn’t know and wait until he could discuss it in private. Explain to the other party when you have time.

“Did anything happen during the day?”

he asked simply.

“No.”

Yu Jingjing answered from the side with a nonchalant tone, like a child who was forcibly ordered to do something by his parents.

She’s not stupid, the other party just let her stay here because of the person named Xia Ren.

As for her mother’s instructions and Zhao Tianliang’s identity, she also knew that although she had a good impression of Xia Ren, she was just unhappy and hated the feeling of being forcibly arranged by others.

Zhao Rou said at this time: “I feel that I am much better.”

The implication is that there is no need to make such a fuss.

From her perspective, she was just having nightmares and had poor sleep, so it wasn’t a big problem.

She had been in the hospital for half a year due to chordoma, and she was tired of this environment. She believed that her father was too worried about her, which was why she was hospitalized, so she did not want to stay in the hospital anymore.

Xia Ren shook his head and said in an unquestionable tone: “I don’t want you to think, I want me to feel.”

He turned around and said to the others: “You all get out.”

Zhao Tianliang asked: “Do you have any idea?”

Xia Ren stretched his arms, moved his body, and said, “There is no specific solution yet. We won’t know until your daughter and I sleep tonight.”

“!!!” Zhao Rou, Zhao Tianliang, and Yu Jingjing.

…

…

In the end, Zhao Tianliang and Yu Jingjing quietly exited the ward.

In the clean and bright ward, only Xia Ren, Lily, and Zhao Rou were left on the bed.

“Go to sleep.”

Xia Ren brought a stool and sat beside the bed.

Zhao Rou looked at him and blinked.

The sleep he just mentioned was naturally not what he and others imagined, but just taking care of them.

“Can’t sleep.”

Zhao Rou said weakly.

Xia Ren looked up at the light above his head, stood up, and turned it off for her.

The ward suddenly became dark, with only a beam of light shining through the glass on the ward door from the corridor.

Zhao Rou could feel that Xia Ren was beside her, staring directly at her, and her heartbeat could not help but speed up.

She closed her eyes hard, trying to let herself fall asleep.

after awhile.

“Still can’t sleep…”

She opened her eyes, her eyes a little innocent.

“well.”

Xia Ren sighed: “There’s really nothing I can do about you.”

He remembered who said before that when you can’t sleep, you can tell stories and listen to them, and you will fall asleep after listening to them.

“Then let me tell you a story.”

“good.”

Zhao Rou nodded slightly, and couldn’t help but look forward to what kind of story he would tell her.

Three minutes passed, and Zhao Rou regretted it.

She felt that the room was very lively now. There were things hidden outside the window, behind the curtains, under the bed, and even under her own bed.

Xia Ren tells ghost stories.

He had written supernatural novels before, so he was naturally the best at it, and combined with his gloomy voice and the dark environment in the room, this ghost story was particularly successful, at least it successfully scared Zhao Rou.

“Can you fall asleep? How about I tell you another story?”

Xia Ren hasn’t realized his problem yet.

Zhao Rou was so frightened that she shook her head repeatedly: “Stop talking, I’m going to sleep now, I’m going to sleep now.”

She silently pulled up the quilt and covered her head, but no matter how hard she tried, she would still have random thoughts in her head, especially the story Xia Ren told just now, which made her always feel unsafe around her, as if if she was careless, someone would immediately appear. The scary ghost jumped out to scare her.

In such a nervous mood, I can’t sleep no matter what.

A long time passed, and Zhao Rou didn’t know exactly how long it was. Anyway, it was a little difficult for her to hold her breath under the quilt.

“He probably doesn’t look at himself anymore, right?”

With this thought in her mind, Zhao Rou gently pulled down the quilt a little, exposed her eyes, and observed her surroundings.

She didn’t expect that Xia Ren was still sitting next to her, holding Lily in his arms. As soon as he showed his head, he just saw two pairs of bright eyes, one big and one small, staring at her in the darkness, and her heartbeat suddenly jumped with fright. All missed a beat.

Zhao Rou almost screamed, but she quickly reacted and said with some embarrassment: “You haven’t slept yet.”

“I should ask you this.”

Xia Ren was a little helpless.

He had been waiting beside him for more than half an hour, but the other party still showed no intention of falling asleep.

So he stood up and rubbed his fists.

“What are you going to do to me?”

Zhao Rou felt a sense of crisis inexplicably.

“It’s okay. I’m already proficient. It’ll be quick.”

Before he finished speaking, before the other party could react, Xia Ren had solved the trouble with a punch of love.

After finishing the work, he pulled Zhao Rou’s quilt and continued to sit on the chair.

“What are we going to do?”

Lily asked, looking up.

“wait.”

Xia Ren only replied one word.

At the corner of the stairs outside, Zhao Tianliang was squatting there, frowning.

He could do nothing, just like when his wife had the surgery, he could only wait outside.

The female secretary bent down and silently handed him a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.

Zhao Tianliang took a look and saw that he had not smoked for a long time after his wife died.

Although smoking is not allowed in the hospital corridors, this is a private hospital, and on the entire third floor, only my daughter’s ward is occupied.

After hesitating for a long time, he took the cigarette, took out one, put it in his mouth and lit it.

“Ahem!”

I just took a puff. Because I haven’t been accustomed to the taste of tobacco for many years, my lungs reacted violently and my brain felt dizzy.

“It’s so hard to smoke.”

He said this in his mouth, but he still smoked it one bite at a time.

It seemed that only the spicy smoke could temporarily make him forget his inner anxiety.

He finished one cigarette quickly, and when he wanted to smoke a second one, the secretary reached out and held down his cigarette case.

“Stop smoking, it’s dawn.”

“you……”

Zhao Tianliang looked at the female secretary in surprise.

She followed him for nearly ten years, working hard without complaining, rarely speaking, and never going against his wishes.

She is a little strange today.

Zhao Tianliang looked at the other person’s face at such a close distance. Suddenly, he noticed that there were fine wrinkles in the corners of the other person’s eyes.

I remember that the last time I observed the other person’s appearance was when she was just transferred to him. At that time, she was young and beautiful, full of vitality and vigor, but now she has become so calm, or she has become much older.

The female secretary bravely looked at him and suggested: “If you are really bored, I can go for a walk outside with you.”

Zhao Tianliang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly recalled just now: “What did you call me?”

The female secretary bit her lip: “It’s dawn. Actually, I…”

…

…

In the ward, Zhao Rou has been unconscious for nearly an hour.

Suddenly, a faint sound caught Xia Ren’s attention.

It sounded like insects crawling in the soil.

Xia Ren raised his head and looked around the ward, but found nothing.

There is no pollution either.

Unknowingly, Zhao Rou’s brows on the bed had quietly wrinkled.

“insect……”
