Coming out of the special care room, Lin Youde found that besides Xun, Josephine was also waiting for him outside the door.
"I followed your instructions and used the front attack method, and the effect was quite good." Lin Youde told his wife, "However, as a wife, you actually help your husband pick up other girls, which makes me a little bit unable to let go."
Josephine smiled and flicked her husband's forehead and said: "This is a skill my grandma taught me. My grandma warned me that when I become a hostess in the future, I must not be jealous or show off when my husband is flirting.
If you get too jealous, it will only make your husband's heart continue to drift away from you. In the end, the two of you are in the same bed, and all that is left in the marriage is politics."
"It sounds so vicissitudes of life."
"I guess this is my grandma's personal experience." Josephine shrugged, "But I think this is largely because ordinary human girls age..."
Lin Youde burst out laughing.
After laughing, he didn't mind the looks of the researchers and soldiers standing guard who kept passing by. He pulled his wife into his arms and said while being affectionate: "So you don't worry about your position being taken away at all, right?"
"I decided to wait until you really fall in love with her before considering this kind of problem. Although now it seems that it's just a matter of time..." Josephine completely ignored the eyes of the people around her and kissed Lin Youde's cheek.
, then she changed the topic, "You really don't intend to help her expose that..."
"Moriarty."
"That Moriarty's conspiracy?"
"That's right," Lin Youde replied firmly, "now is not a good time to start a war with Britain. Roosevelt has been reelected for one term. Looking at Situ Meitang's report, it is estimated that the right wing will be elected in the next term. We and the United States
The alliance can no longer be trusted. We need a reliable international ally."
"France was never on your mind, was it?"
Lin Youde laughed. His eldest wife had an indifferent attitude towards his philandering, and even gave him tips on how to pick up new girls, but when she mentioned her motherland, she started being jealous.
"My dear, if France turns against Britain and Germany for us, it will be attacked by the two powers. This will not be fun."
Josephine shook her head and smiled at Lin Youde: "You can't hide your thoughts from me. You just don't take my motherland into consideration. I know that in your opinion, France is at the end of its tether."
"In my opinion, Britain is at the end of its tether, as is the whole of Europe."
"So you're going to open a European Princess Expo in your mansion?"
Although Josephine was only the heir of a great nobleman, that was based on the entire country of France. According to the standards of the feudal era, Josephine was also a princess of the Grand Duchy.
From a very close distance, Lin Youde looked at his wife, whose forehead was on his head, and said in a serious tone: "This is a good idea. Let me see, among the big countries in Europe, there are still Germany and Russia..."
Josephine stepped on Lin Youde, while the two Landebel soldiers behind him looked like they were having a hard time holding back their laughter.
**
Lin Youde came again the next day.
As soon as Isabella saw Lin Youde entering the door, she lay down on the bed, covered her head with a towel, and shouted: "I'm going to sleep, you can go!"
"Oh, is that so?" Lin Youde looked at ease, "Then I have to take away the newspaper clippings sent by the European Bureau."
Isabella lifted up the quilt and sat up, staring at Lin Youde with resentful eyes.
Lin Youde waited for a while and saw that she had no intention of speaking, so he continued: "Although it is just a clip of the main content of the newspaper, it is also high-level confidential information. There is no way I can leave it here. If you want to read it, read it now.
I’ll take it with me when I leave.”….
Then Isabella's eyes became even more resentful.
Lin Youde handed her the newspaper clippings book in his hand. She didn't take it at first, but just stared at Lin Youde. After staring for a while, she probably got tired of staring, and then she snatched the newspaper clippings book.
"Slow down, don't tear it apart."
Isabella rolled her eyes at Lin Youde, and then used more rough movements to look through the newspaper clippings.
Lin Youde pulled a chair and sat in front of Isabella's bed, watching the girl concentrate on reading the headlines of the Times and the Daily Telegraph. Even Lin Youde, who was used to seeing beautiful girls, had to admire Isabella.
Sabella's face, skin, and hair may be a little inferior due to recent neglect of maintenance, but they can still make most women envious.
"Find someone to help you take care of your hair today. It's really distressing to see your beautiful blond hair look dull like this."
"No need..." Isabella swallowed her words halfway. She raised her hand to fiddle with the hair hanging on her chest. After fighting for a while, she finally sighed, "Okay, I'll leave it to you."
"I'll bring you some more dresses. You should be tired of wearing this hospital gown."
"That's right, that's all for you." Isabella paused and changed to a sarcastic tone, "Anyway, from now on, I will be the canary in your cage, and my only role is to dress brightly.
Chirping, right?"
Lin Youde blinked his eyes, looking surprised. He originally thought that Isabella would continue to ask Lin Youde to help her get back the throne, but he never expected that the queen - now the former queen - would show such resignation.
Attitude. This made him doubtful, and he wondered in his mind whether this was a strategy adopted by this girl to deceive him. But when he thought about Isabella's reaction when he first entered the door, he didn't think it was the case.
After wondering for a long time, Lin Youde decided to knock Isabella head-on to find out the wind, and said: "You... just give up on taking back the throne? Maybe you can persuade me if you beg me more."
"At this point in time, you shouldn't want to offend Britain?" Isabella raised her eyes from the newspaper clipping and glanced at Lin Youde, "I was thinking about this issue very seriously last night. You can no longer trust me completely now.
The United States, France's power in the Far East has been greatly reduced since the Sino-French War, Germany has never had a strong presence in the Far East, and Russia and China are at odds with each other. You need an alliance with the United Kingdom. And if you can help
If I succeed in regaining the throne, it will be easy to say, but if I fail, I will basically ruin the possibility of an alliance with Britain. If I were you, I would not take the risk."
"It seems that the medicine has not taken away your ability to think. You are still so smart." Lin Youde's compliments obviously had no effect, so he changed the topic, "So I don't understand why you are encountering
Did you make such a stupid move before this incident?"
Isabella rolled her eyes at Lin Youde.
"Make no mistake, I still think you and your country are the biggest threat to Britain!"
"Then you said yesterday that the biggest threat to Britain is Moriarty..."
Isabella's eyes were raised high, staring at Lin Youde with a look that could kill.
"That's enough, please give me..."
She was only halfway through her roar when she faltered - she seemed to suddenly remember that she was in a state of being dependent on someone else.
Isabella sighed and turned her attention to the newspaper clipping again.
As a result, the special care room was temporarily shrouded in silence. This silence made the occasional sound of Isabella turning the pages of books feel particularly present.
Ten minutes passed like this, and Isabella couldn't hold it any longer.
“Unlike me, the canary, why is the Minister of the Navy of the Chinese Federation, who controls half of the Pacific Ocean, so free today?”….
This made Lin Youde breathe a sigh of relief. Isabella's willingness to take the initiative to speak like this showed that she didn't really hate him, Lin Youde. This girl was just - to use the words of the previous time and space, she was just being arrogant.
"The highest state of governance that we admire in China is called rule by vertical arches. It means that the emperor does not have to do anything, and excellent ministers will do everything well. And the organization is exactly the same. I have a group of excellent staff.
He will take care of most things, and only those really important things will be sent to me."
"for example?"
"Catch a canary and let her sing in a cage or something."
As soon as Lin Youde finished speaking, he was stared at again.
"So hurry up and send me your best clothes to beautify me. Then I can sing on stage with your other Austrian canary."
Isabella said angrily.
Lin Youde shrugged.
"How about this? I just asked you that you are ready to be discharged from the hospital. You just need to pay attention to your recovery. So today you will move out of this ward and live in my mansion."
"Aren't you afraid that I will run away? The representative of the British envoy in Langgabo must have met me several times at cocktail parties and dances. If I suddenly appeared in front of him, he would definitely be so surprised that his jaw dropped."
"Then what? Let him drug you again and give it to Moriarty? I bet that criminal genius will be very happy."
Isabella was poked in the painful area, and after a long time she said in a broken tone: "Anyway, you are treated as a plaything, it doesn't matter."
Lin Youde stood up and sat on the edge of Isabella's bed, where he sat almost touching the girl's thigh under the towel.
But Isabella didn't drive him away, she just turned her face away slightly - like all girls who are having trouble.
"There is an old saying in China, which is to choose the lesser of two evils. Besides, if you have the expression you have now, does it mean that there is still such a thing?"
Isabella held it in for a while, and finally nodded as if giving up. But she seemed unwilling to do so, so she muttered in a low voice: "Then I won't go anywhere, I will start a new life somewhere where no one knows me...
…”
Lin Youde reached over and planned to take this opportunity to kiss her again, but the girl pushed him away hard.
"Don't even think about it! You took the opportunity to attack me last time, and I will never make the same mistake again!"
Lin Youde smacked his lips after failing in the forced kiss.
"What do you mean by that? Does it mean that you will come to fight me again if you have the chance in the future! I can't use the power of Shen Ji to attack the Overlord?"
"Ah, regarding that point, the so-called inhibitor I started injecting you with the day before yesterday was just ordinary saline."
"What...eh?"
Isabella raised her hand and pulled the vase on the shelf in the far corner into her palm.
"Really...why?"
Isabella looked at Lin Youde with wide eyes, confusion on her face.
"Because... I don't think you can run away."
"Believe it or not, I'm going to show you right now? Now, immediately, immediately!"
Lin Youde made a "please" gesture towards the door.
Isabella glared at Lin Youde, so angry that she threw off the quilt and jumped out of bed. She didn't even put on slippers, so she ran to the door with bare feet. After opening the door, she turned around and stared again.
He glanced at Lin Youde, then rushed into the corridor and slammed the door.
At the same time that Isabella left, the nervous voice of the guard at the door came from the radio on Lin Youde: "Sir, then..."
"Let her go, you pretend not to see her."
"Uh...is this okay?"
"Can."
At this moment, the guard's exclamation came over the radio: "Ah, you can't..."...
Then the guard's voice was replaced by Isabella's: "I'll run and show you!"
"Um."
"I really ran away! I'm going to start a new life!"
Lin Youde wanted to laugh at this time.
In a social work practice class in college, a senior supervisor invited from Hong Kong said this when introducing his experience in suicide counseling at NGO in Hong Kong: "Newcomers will always be nervous when they receive a call saying, 'I want to commit suicide.' In fact, there is no need to do so.
Nervous. People who really want to commit suicide die silently and cannot be saved at all. These people who will call and those who stand on the roof of the building and are watched by countless people and still hesitate to jump, in fact
They all don’t want to die, so we have room to intervene.”
And now Isabella's actions, although not suicide, are simply demonstrating what the supervisor said.
But if you really laugh, it might be self-defeating, so Lin Youde put on a serious face and said in a serious voice: "Okay, come back, if you really want to start a new life, I will give you an island with sunny weather all year round and picturesque scenery.
How about letting you live a happy life there?"
After Lin Youde finished speaking, after waiting for a long time for no response from the radio, the door of the special care room opened.
Isabella came into the house with the radio.
"You are so annoying," she said.
Lin Youde shrugged.
"I know, I know. Seeing how energetic you are, there's no need to wait any longer. I'll ask the maid team to come over now and help you clean up before moving to the mansion."
"No," Isabella pushed Lin Youde away, jumped on the bed and got into the towel and quilt, "I live here, it's fine."
