Ruan Qi frowned and struggled to open his heavy eyelids.
The blurred vision gradually became clear, and everything in front of me...
Why is it black and white?
Ruan Qi blinked hard, seeing a black and white room, a black and white mattress, and... black and white people.
The little girl was petrified.
"Baby, what's wrong with you?" The young woman sitting by the bed had bloodshot eyes. She held her hand distressedly, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Mommy is scared to death!"
Mother?
A question mark appeared above Ruan Qi's head.
Isn’t mom in Qingyun Village?
The little girl looked at the tearful young woman and opened her chapped lips to speak.
"ah……"
?????
Why can't she make a sound?!
Ruan Qi opened her eyes in fear. At this moment, the door opened and a man walked in.
Master!
Ruan Qi wanted to reach out to grab the man, but her limbs felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't lift them up.
At this time, the man walked to the bed and sat down, checking her carefully.
"Brother Beilou, why is Xiao Qi so dumb?" Grandpa Ruan asked worriedly.
The man said nothing.
He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the little girl's eyes, his expression becoming more solemn.
"Xiaoqi is too young and cannot withstand excessive stimulation, which results in her five senses being closed. Now she can't hear sounds and can't speak."
Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
"How could this happen?!" The young woman burst into tears.
She threw herself on the bed, picked up the little girl, and patted her face gently, "Baby, look at mommy! Talk to mommy!"
"My granddaughter!" Grandma Ruan, who was sitting nearby, cried until she almost fainted. "She is only nine years old!"
Ruan Qi looked at her mother and grandmother whose faces were full of tears, and wanted to reach out to help them wipe away their tears.
But his hands seemed to be bound by something, and he couldn't move at all.
She wanted to shout anxiously, but her throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton.
Speechless!
Can't move!
Even seeing things is in black and white!
The little girl looked at her grieving family members, despair was like a dense spider web, covering her tightly like a nightmare.
At the same time, in the ward.
The little girl on the bed had a red face, like an injured kitten, sobbing sadly.
"Mom...Mom, help me...Mom..."
The helpless and desperate murmurs made the hearts of several men in the ward tremble.
Xi Jiu sat beside the bed, holding the little girl's hand tightly, and asked in a dumb voice: "Is there no way to wake her up right away?"
Xu Xiangyang shook his head with a sullen face.
"Xiao Qi has now activated her self-defense mechanism and cannot hear the outside world at all. She can only escape from the nightmare on her own."
Xi Jiu clenched his teeth, his heart felt like it was being set on fire, and the pain was so painful that even his blood was trembling.
He stared at Ruan Qi, who was crying with her eyes closed, and suddenly stood up from the chair and sat on the bed, carefully holding her in his arms.
Not knowing if she smelled a familiar scent, the little girl who was immersed in the nightmare immediately grabbed the man's clothes tightly.
She buried her head in his arms and cried like a little animal.
Xi Jiu's eyes were red.
He held her tightly and patted her back gently with his big hands as if patting a baby.
"The baby is not afraid. Jiujiu is here, so he is not afraid."
The man's voice was hoarse and trembling, and he repeated this sentence in the girl's ear over and over again, tirelessly.
Perhaps Xi Jiu's gentle coaxing had an effect. After more than half an hour, Ruan Qi's crying became much quieter.
Xu Xiangyang took her temperature again.
"Thirty-eight degrees one, which is much lower than before."
Several men breathed a sigh of relief.
Ruan Munan helped the little girl change into a fever-reducing patch, then turned to Nie Heng and said, "Come out with me."
…
Outside the ward, at the end of the corridor.
Ruan Munan reached out and opened the window, and the biting cold wind blew in, blowing away the irritability in his heart.
He stood in front of the window for a while, then turned around and asked Nie Heng: "What happened during the day? Why did Xiao Qi have a sudden attack?"
Nie Heng rubbed his red and swollen eyes from crying and recounted what happened in the treatment room.
Ruan Munan's eyebrows wrinkled more and more tightly, and finally, his face became so gloomy that he could almost squeeze out water.
"That's what happened." Nie Heng sniffed, "Senior Sister must have been touched by what He Siwen said ten years ago, and that's why she had an attack."
Ruan Munan doesn't think so.
Although Ruan Qi has a heart problem, she won't be so stimulated by just saying "ten years ago".
Nie Heng was only eight years old at the time, and everyone was afraid that he would spill the beans, so they just told him that Ruan Qi had been stimulated outside.
But Ruan Munan knew much more than Nie Heng.
Xi Jiu's...ten years ago...on the Shanghai Stock Exchange...Bai Yueguang...vegetative...
A hint of suspicion slowly came to mind, and Ruan Munan's eyes flashed. He looked in the direction of the ward and remained silent for a long time.
…
Late at night, the little girl held in Xi Jiu's arms finally stopped sobbing.
Her little hand held the man's hand tightly, curled up like a kitten, and fell into a deep sleep.
"Still having a high fever." Xu Xiangyang lowered his voice, "I'll give you the medicine later."
Xi Jiu nodded solemnly.
Nie Heng, who was standing aside, couldn't help but say: "Master Xi, you have been holding me for seven or eight hours. How about I take over for you for a while?"
"No need." Xi Jiu's voice was hoarse and hoarse.
He lowered his eyes, his gentle and loving eyes falling on the little girl's face, "She will be scared."
Nie Heng looked at the man who looked like his wife, and sighed helplessly.
He turned to look at Ruan Munan, only to see the latter staring at Xi Jiu thoughtfully.
"Brother Nan, what are you looking at?" Nie Heng asked.
Ruan Munan looked away and shook his head, "It's okay. By the way, don't tell your family about Xiao Qi."
"I know. Master has already given instructions during the day." At this point, Nie Heng gritted his teeth fiercely, "When senior sister is well, I will definitely not let that woman named He Siwen go!"
"I'll handle that woman." Gu Feiyang, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.
The man who had always been cynical no longer had a smile on his face.
He looked at the little girl on the hospital bed with a heavy look, and said hoarsely: "This matter happened because of me, and I will solve it myself. Moreover, He Siwen's biological aunt is the third daughter-in-law of the Cheng family. It will be dangerous for you to take action."
"Cheng family?" Ruan Munan's black eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam, "You mean the poisonous Cheng family?"
Gu Feiyang didn't notice the man's darkening expression. He slowly stood up and grabbed the coat on the side.
Xi Jiu, who was sitting on the hospital bed, suddenly threw something out.
Gu Feiyang quickly caught it and looked down - the Xi family ANBU badge!
He raised his eyes in shock, "Brother Ninth, what are you..."
