Chapter 173 Sequelae of Encephalopathy
"Perhaps he has some terminal illness, and he is just waiting for you to sympathize with him and make you forget what he has done," Qiu Xichen said harshly, with a cold smile on his face.
Shi Yue was disgusted with how he looked like this.
But she had said all kinds of things. Shi Yue thought for a long time before saying, "Mr. Qiu, considering that we got along pretty well before, can we let each other go?"
The affection in Qiu Xichen's eyes gradually deepened: "I will give you the explanation you want and the justice you want."
He didn't know what to say. After saying this, he quickly let go of Shi Yue's hand and walked down the stairwell.
In the extremely quiet corridor, his footsteps became farther and farther away, and his figure gradually became invisible, leaving Shi Yue still standing in the same place.
She stared blankly at the void, asking for justice, could he really return it to her?
After the sounds outside disappeared, Shi Yue walked out of the stairwell. Zhou Songbai and his wife were nowhere to be found, and no one was watching outside the lounge.
Shi Yue walked directly in. The room that was originally filled with the aroma of red wine was filled with the smell of alcohol. Zhou Mian was lying on the sofa and fell asleep with a needle stuck in the back of his hand. His face was pale and sick. The last time I saw him like this,
It was still during the heavy rain in Anshi.
He was injured that time, but just now... nothing happened.
Shi Yue sat quietly next to the sofa for an unknown amount of time, until the night became darker, the noise outside the winery began, the guests gradually dispersed, and the surroundings returned to silence.
The moonlight is like water, pouring out a clear moonlight, and the creek in front of the winery has fine silver light.
When Zhou Songbai and his wife came back again, they were a little surprised to see Shi Yue present.
Shi Yue stood up and bowed slightly: "Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou."
After the two of them were surprised, it seemed as if a heavy burden had been lifted. Zhou Songbai sat on the sofa on the other side and sighed: "Shi Yue, I'm very happy that you can be here. Zhou Mian needs your company."
Shi Yue still couldn't help but wonder: "I want to know, what happened to Zhou Mian...?"
Mrs. Zhou hesitated to speak. Her nose felt sore and she almost cried again. She shook her head helplessly and said, "This matter... it's better for him to tell you face to face."
She stood up again, walked to Shi Yue, bowed her head and apologized: "The words I said to you before were very offensive. Please, for Zhou Mian's sake, please don't argue with me."
Shi Yue quickly supported her: "Mrs. Zhou, don't be like this. You are a mother. From your standpoint, what you did is right." She turned back and glanced at Zhou Mian, who was still in a coma, with extremely complicated emotions.
.
That night, Zhou Songbai and his wife stayed at the winery, and Shi Yue promised them that he would take care of Zhou Mian and did not leave.
Zhou Mian fell asleep this time and didn't wake up until nearly noon the next day.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Shi Yue resting on the side of the sofa. She was not embarrassed about being discovered because of her illness. Instead, she showed a smile. He raised his fingers and traced the softness of her face in detail from a distance.
outline.
It seems that only at this time, she belongs to herself.
But the silence didn't last long, as Shi Yue woke up quickly.
She didn't even notice that Zhou Mian had woken up, but immediately went to see how he was holding the water. She stretched out her right hand to adjust the flow rate of the water, and suddenly felt something hooked on the little finger of her left hand.
As soon as Shi Yue lowered his head, he saw Zhou Mian looking at him with a gentle smile. His expression was relaxed, as if the whole night of sleeping did not exist.
"Have you been taking care of me? How long have I been sleeping?"
Shi Yue looked at the time and then answered him: "You were unconscious for fourteen hours."
After saying that, Shi Yue calmly went out and called the doctor from yesterday to check his condition.
During the process, Shi Yue stood beside her and asked nervously: "Doctor, is his condition serious?"
Zhou Mian, however, kept giving the doctor a warning look.
After checking various indicators, the doctor said apologetically to Shi Yue: "Sorry, Miss, Mr. Zhou's condition requires the hospital to issue an examination report and conclusion. I have no right to give the results."
Since the doctor couldn't ask anything, after he left, Shi Yue directly asked Zhou Mian: "You must explain clearly what is wrong with your body."
Zhou Mian was sitting on the sofa. After a page of infusion, the back of his hand was swollen. He just said calmly: "You have to know how heavy the workload is as a lawyer. I am busy until late at night every day.
My body is just worn down, just take some time to recover and it will be fine."
Seeing Shi Yue's solemn expression, but still unwilling to believe it, Zhou Mian smiled again and said: "I'm serious. If you ask Ding Ze and others, they can all testify for me."
Ding Ze was his friend, so even if he asked, his words wouldn't be very credible.
Even after reaching this point, he was still unwilling to tell the truth. Shi Yue was silent for a few minutes, ignoring Zhou Mian's words, and then she finally asked.
"I heard something. When we sued Gu Huaian, we actually didn't lose that easily, right?"
She looked at Zhou Mian with clear eyes, as if saying a wrong word would be a lifelong sin.
The faint smile on Zhou Mian's face finally disappeared, and he said firmly: "You heard what Qiu Xichen said."
It concerns Gu Huaian and himself. There were so many people at the banquet last night, so he could only say these things.
Shi Yue was obsessed with his attitude and answers: "It doesn't matter who said it. I just want to know if you took the initiative to admit defeat and led Gu Huaian to leave without guilt?"
The sun shines in through the window and shines on Zhou Mian's face. His face is almost transparent, leaving only pure paleness: "Qiu Xichen is really unscrupulous in trying to frame me. How could I let it hurt you?"
Let her be acquitted."
Shi Yue looked into his light brown eyes and couldn't tell for a moment whether what he said was true or false.
After a long time, she nodded slowly: "Okay, I believe you. So... can you give me your trust and tell me what disease you have?"
At this point, Zhou Mian could no longer hide it.
He pointed to his head: "Do you still remember, when I was in Anshi last time, the doctor said that I had several bruises in my brain?"
Shi Yue was shocked: "But didn't the doctor say that those congestions will gradually disappear?"
Zhou Mian shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I often had splitting headaches and nausea some time ago. I thought it was the sequelae of a concussion. But once I passed out and was examined at the hospital, I found that there was a block of blood that did not disappear, but was oppressing the brain."
Nerves caused me to become like this."
I get headaches every now and then, and sometimes my vision becomes blurry.
