Chapter 83

In the hospital late at night, Shen Zhao woke up in a faint dim incandescent light. She was lying there, her eyes were covered with a layer of gauze, so she could not see, but could only faintly feel a little light. The subconscious fear in her body that such a blinded feeling will remind her of when she was kidnapped and injected with drugs.

She raised her hand to touch her eyes, but found a drip on the back of her hand.

The darkness made her fearful, and she almost instinctively wanted to flee.

Chi Zhoubai came in from the outside, and as soon as she walked in the door, she saw the person on the bed turned over and was about to get out of bed, she hurriedly rushed over and hugged her. Shen Zhao touched the man's hand and was so frightened that he quickly retracted and leaned against the bed in a daze.

"Shen Zhao..." Chi Zhoubai called her tentatively.

Shen Zhao was stunned for a moment, but couldn't hear whose voice it was. This was a foreign country, and no one knew her at all.

She asked nervously, "Who are you?"

Chi Zhoubai stretched out his hand in mid-air to support her. Seeing that she had forgotten herself, he could not help frowning and explained, "I'm Chi Zhoubai. You were injured yesterday. I met you on the side of the road, don't you remember? ?"

Shen Zhao shivered, not daring to approach, trying to recall what happened last night.

She remembered that she had just come out of the convenience store and had just walked to the street when she met a group of gangsters who wanted to rob her of her money and her necklace...

"My stuff—" She suddenly remembered the necklace.

"Is it this necklace?" Chi Zhoubai took out the necklace from his pocket and put it in her palm.

Shen Zhao held the necklace and clenched his palms slightly. There was a moment of silence. After a long time, he said softly, "Thank you."

Chi Zhoubai saw her clutching the necklace tightly, and suddenly asked, "Where's Song Ling? Isn't she with you?"

Since the last time, Chi Zhoubai has known that Shen Zhao and Song Ling are together, and since Shen Zhao did not come back, she also cut off contact with her.

Chi Zhoubai stared at her face. She had not seen her for a few months. She lost a lot of weight, as if she had completely changed her personality.

Isn't she still a college student? Why did he suddenly appear in country T, and why did he get caught with drugs...

When the inspection report came out, she was also taken aback. Shen Zhao had Yibing in his body, and the dose was not too small.

What happened to her? !

Chi Zhoubai asked her, "What happened to you? Why did you appear in country T?"

Shen Zhao sat on the ground, hugging her knees bare on the back of the bed, and shrank at the head of the bed. She couldn't see, and Chi Zhoubai couldn't see what she was thinking. She just sat there quietly without speaking.

Chi Zhoubai didn't know what happened to her, but she didn't need to guess, it must be something bad, and she probably wasn't very willing to tell her for a while.

Chi Zhoubai glanced at her feet, she got up and approached her, holding her up with both hands, but as soon as he touched her arm, Shen Zhao trembled uncontrollably, she avoided her Hand, has been back, and finally back to the point where there is no way back.

Her reaction was very big, and her whole body was not very good, she was in a trance, as if she was greatly stimulated, and seemed extremely afraid of others approaching.

A few months ago, she was still running around behind her like a little sun, and she seemed to have endless energy.

How did it become like this?

Chi Zhoubai felt a little distressed, she approached her carefully, and said softly, "It's cold on the ground, I'll help you up."

When Shen Zhao heard Chi Zhoubai's words, she was stunned for a long time before she could react. She supported the bed and stood up slowly by herself with the drip on her hand. He lifted the quilt on the bed with his hand and reminded her gently, "Slow down, don't press your hand."

Shen Zhao touched the bed and lay down with the help of Chi Zhoubai. She lay there with her eyes closed, motionless, without saying a word, like a silkworm chrysalis, trying to seal herself up.

A doctor came in and saw that the person on the bed seemed to be asleep. She looked at Chi Zhoubai again and reminded in a low voice, "Miss Chi, please come out with me."

Chi Zhoubai followed and walked outside the door. Hansen was also waiting in the corridor. The hospital was very quiet late at night, and there was no one in the corridor.

The doctor spoke a lot of English, and Chi Zhoubai was confused. Finally, Hansen helped translate and said, "Ms. Shen Zhao's health is very bad, she has drug addiction in her body, and needs to be systematically and targeted. The treatment, besides... She also seems to have some problems psychologically."

The doctor was hesitant to say anything, because there was only a preliminary examination, and it was not yet able to be specifically determined.

After listening to Hansen's translation, Chi Zhoubai suddenly felt very heavy. She turned her head to glance at the back lying on the bed, and thought for a long time. Finally, she turned her head and asked the doctor, "How do I need treatment?"

The doctor said: "The hospital is not suitable for her recuperation. She needs to be cared for in a familiar environment and by familiar people. She has severe malnutrition. I guess she should be depressed."

Chi Zhoubai pursed his lips and was silent. Although she could guess that something bad must have happened to Shen Zhao, she did not expect that she would suffer so much damage.

Who did these injuries?

Chi Zhoubai lowered his eyes and said manly, "I know, I will take good care of her."

The doctor ordered some precautions, and Chi Zhoubai wrote them down one by one. When he returned to the ward, the person on the bed seemed to have fallen asleep. She lay there, with her back turned out to reveal only her thin, thin shoulders, alone and motionless, like an abandoned child.

Chi Zhoubai walked in lightly, sat slowly beside the bed, looked down at her face, and thought carefully.

For a whole night, Chi Zhoubai was worried about her, so he watched her on the bed next to her all night.

When it was dawn, Chi Zhoubai only woke up when she heard the movement. She opened her eyes in confusion and saw the person on the bed beside her who was about to get out of bed. She could not see her eyes. where?"

Shen Zhao hesitated for a moment, and then said after a moment of silence, "I...want to go to the bathroom."

"I'll help you." Chi Zhoubai held her arm and took her to the bathroom.

Shen Zhao didn't resist anymore, knowing that the people beside her were staying with her all night, she pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't speak, and let Chi Zhoubai take her into the bathroom.

Chi Zhoubai supported her, she stood at the door, and asked again remindingly, "Do you need me to help you?"

Shen Zhao: "No, thank you."

Chi Zhoubai lowered his eyes lightly, smiled with his lips hooked, and closed the door and left without saying anything.

A few minutes later, Shen Zhao came out of the bathroom, and Chi Zhoubai didn't leave, but kept standing at the door. Seeing her coming out, he quickly reached out to help her and walked to the bed.

Shen Zhao didn't wear socks and was barefoot all the time.

Chi Zhoubai caught a glimpse and pulled the quilt to cover it for her.

T country is no better than the domestic one, the temperature is lower all year round, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is also large. She was also very thinly dressed, her face was pale and pale, like someone who had been ill for a long time.

Hansen drove over early in the morning and brought breakfast very thoughtfully.

Chi Zhoubai also brought all the clothes that Chi Zhoubai asked him to bring in advance.

Chi Zhoubai took it and said to him with a smile, "Thank you Hansen, I'll give you a raise later."

Hansen smiled honestly, with folds on his face, and said happily, "It doesn't matter, your friend, is she okay?"

Chi Zhoubai looked back at the person on the bed, pulled his lips and said, "It's going to take a while to rest slowly."

Hansen nodded and said generously, "If you need help, you can tell me."

Chi Zhou smiled: "Okay, thank you."

After Hansen left, Chi Zhoubai carried things back to the ward. Shen Zhao was still sitting on the bed. She lowered her head and hugged her knees. The sun was gradually rising outside the window. Li suddenly felt warm.

Chi Zhoubai untied the bag in his hand, looked back at her, and asked lightly, "Are you hungry?"

Shen Zhao was stunned, didn't answer her, just sat there silently.

Chi Zhoubai didn't wait for her answer and didn't care, he walked over with the food, put it on the head of the bed, set up the folding table on the bed, put the food on it, and said, "It's not like the domestic one, it's just some bread. And sausages, etc., just put your stomach first. I'll find a Chinese restaurant later and order some porridge."

Shen Zhao smelled the aroma of the food, and his stomach could not help but growl twice, which was very clear in the silent room.

Chi Zhoubai heard it, smiled with hooked lips, reached out and grabbed her hand and brought it to the dining table, prompting: "Here, you have a wound on your eye, the gauze cannot be removed for the time being, and it should be removed in two days. Lost."

Shen Zhao touched the bread, she shrank her hands, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I want to wash first... Is that okay?"

It was rare for her to say a word, and Chi Zhoubai heard her voice, it was soft and soft, and it was very similar to the one before.

She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll help you."

After washing, Shen Zhao sat by the bed, ate a piece of bread, and drank a glass of warm milk.

She ate very little, the bread was bigger than the palm of her hand, and she ate for a long time without finishing a glass of milk.

Chi Zhoubai sat beside the bed, stared at her face, and asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"I can't eat it anymore." Shen Zhao shook his head.

Chi Zhou said goodbye, got up and packed his things, and put down the dining table.

She took out the socks in her pocket, which she had bought from Hansen in advance.

"Put your socks on, it's very cold." Chi Zhoubai asked her softly, holding the socks.

Shen Zhao was stunned and said in a low voice.

Chi Zhoubai lifted the quilt and picked up the socks to put on for her. Shen Zhao shrank his feet, raised his hand to take the socks from her hand, and whispered, "I'll wear it myself."

Chi Zhoubai was not obsessed either, watching her sit there bowed down, curled up, put her hands in front of her, and put on her socks quietly.

She said slowly: "Can you tell me what happened?"

Shen Zhao paused for a moment, she put on her socks, and still sat there without moving.

After a long while, she said slowly: "I... don't want to say it, can I?"

"It's okay, don't talk if you don't want to." Chi Zhoubai stared at her face and asked, "Where's Song Ling? Isn't she with you?"

Mentioning the familiar name, Shen Zhao's heart trembled a little, and there was still pain in the depths of her heart. She was silent for a long time before she said in a hoarse voice, "I broke up with her."

Chi Zhoubai was stunned, looked at her thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed and teased: "Break up, are you still fighting for a necklace?"

Shen Zhao clenched his fingers lightly and did not speak.

"This necklace was given to you by Song Ling, right?" Chi Zhoubai stared at her face and said with a faint smile, "It's a matter of fate, this necklace was originally mine, and Song Ling bought it first. Well, I found out later that she gave it to you, and then I knew that you were together."

When she mentioned the past, she suddenly felt very far away, and she almost forgot Song Ling's face.

Looking back on that relationship now, it still feels like a dream, and she hopes that it is a dream, as long as she wakes up, everything is fake.

Her father didn't die, and Si'er didn't leave. She wouldn't know a person named Song Ling, and the things that happened later wouldn't happen...

If it was all a dream, wouldn't she be so distressed that she was about to die.

The dry eyes were gradually moistened and covered by gauze, and her embarrassment and pain seemed to be covered together.

Just shaking her shoulders betrayed her heart.

Chi Zhoubai caught a glimpse of her expression and knew that what happened to her might have something to do with Song Ling, she stared at her face and said with comfort: "Forget it, don't mention it if you don't want to."

She, who had given up everything, could suddenly feel Shen Zhao's mood at this moment. She tilted her head to look at the sunlight outside the window. It was so strong, so bright, and it always radiated a warm light. She faced the light and said:"Forget the past, everything is a new beginning. Maybe tomorrow will be better."
