41. What is love (medium)
Half an hour later, the assistant opened the door and walked out.
Lin Fei was worried that Ji Yunchong would pull the knife when he lay down, so he walked quickly into the room, and sure enough, he saw that his face was full of pain. When I asked, I learned that he habitually bent his knees, pulled at the wound, and almost fell off the hospital bed in pain.
Lin Li was distressed and angry, and unconsciously used a stern tone: "Tell you not to move, you are biased." Is work or body important? ”
Ji Yunchong apologized in a low voice, while turning his face away.
His eyebrows were drooping, his expression was extremely uncomfortable, and he did not have the slightest calmness when he had just solved the emergency.
Lin Li reached out and touched his back, realizing that his clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
She pulled out the spare hospital gown from the bedside table and reached for the strap of his dress, catching a glimpse of the reddened ear and stopping what she was doing.
She looked at him.
When the gaze wanders from top to bottom, it stays for two or three seconds.
Lin Li is an emergency doctor, and her professional quality guide did not show a startled look on her face, and she only asked in an ordinary tone: "Ji Yunchong, did your tube fall?" ”
The so-called tube is not an infusion tube for analgesic pumps, but a urinary catheter that is suitable for specific surgeries (orthopedic surgery) and is easy to fall off when dragged by external force.
When Lin Li first graduated, he received clinical training as an intern. She is familiar with this kind of thing.
Ji Yunchong didn't expect Lin Li's observation to be so careful, and he didn't know how to answer, and heard her say again: "You untie your pants, I'll check it for you." ”
Ji Yunchong was shocked.
The little girl who was afraid of men and women in her memory now said to him without changing her face, "Untie your pants...... Yes, she is a doctor, and it is a matter of professional habit to say such things, but ......
Ji Yunchong was calm on the surface, but he was turbulent in his heart, and he lay down after a while.
When Lin Pi came to Munich this time, she had long been mentally prepared for all kinds of unexpected situations when she accompanied the bed to take care of the patients, and she did not talk and do anything awkwardly.
However, she took into account Ji Yunchong's feelings, piled the quilt on his waist, blocking his view, which was regarded as saving some face for both parties, and then walked to the sink of the independent bathroom, turned on the faucet and washed his hands.
The senior ward was very quiet, only the sound of "rattling" running water stimulated the eardrums.
Ji Yunchong lay stiffly on the hospital bed, and the light above his head made his eyes dazzle. He didn't move, his eyelashes fluttered a few times, and he simply closed his eyes.
At this time, the sound of the water stopped.
In the atmosphere of excessive silence, every qiē perception is invisibly amplified. He knew that she had turned back, and he stood beside the bed, his eyes falling on his lower body, and only glanced at him.
"Outwardly, the tube didn't come out." She spoke, Xu had been busy all day without drinking water, and her voice sounded a little hoarse, "But I need to adjust the position of the pipe to prevent leakage." ”
He didn't reply.
Her hand reached over and touched his ** part, and folded into a double layer of skin with her fingertips apart.
It had been stuffy in the quilt for a long time, the temperature was slightly high, and she had just washed her hands with cold water repeatedly, so he could clearly feel the process of the slightly cool fingers sliding.
Inch by inch, gently, slowly.
This is not a scenario where he can take it in stride. Even though she was moving correctly, without any mistakes, his heart stagnated, and then beat uncontrollably violently, causing blood to rush all over his body.
He made a muffled sound from his throat, very suppressed.
She stopped: "What's wrong?" ”
“…… Pain. ”
"I'll tap."
Such a conversation is indescribably strange. His expression was even more embarrassed.
It's a bit of a long time. Finally, she said, "Okay." ”
As soon as the strength of his body was released, the heart hanging on the tip of the knife suddenly fell back to its original place, and he breathed a sigh of relief tiredly.
She added: "The skin is a little red in the place where the transparent tape is attached, I'll change it for you." ”
He didn't answer, didn't open his eyes, and let her help him lift his pants back when she was done.
Wipe your body, change your clothes, cover your quilt...... After Lin Fei finished this qiē, he wanted to wash his hands again, but his arm was grabbed, and then he was pulled by Ji Yunchong, and he couldn't move in his arms.
She was worried about touching his wound, so she didn't force it to break free: "You can toss all day, have a good rest." ”
He didn't speak, and he had no intention of letting her go.
Lin Li persuaded: "Don't think too much. Here, I'm a doctor first, and then a woman. If you have other concerns, I can ask for a male escort. ”
Ji Yunchong opened his eyes, and the love in his dark eyes flooded and sank: "When we are very close, I want to hug you and kiss you, but you will shy away, let alone look directly at my body." It's completely different now, no matter what you say or do, just treat me as your patient. You just said that you were so calm and calm, and you clearly told me that I had lost my attraction to you. ”
His tone was low and subdued, not a quick speech, but a deliberate conclusion.
"You mentioned asking for a male escort around the bush, is it because I have some reactions to you, so you plan to avoid me? I don't know why it was like that. Yes, I like you, but I really don't want to take advantage of you. ”
Lin Li calmly took over: "I said that I asked a male escort to take care of your feelings, not to avoid you." As for some of the reactions you mentioned, they are not caused by sex/impulses, and you don't need to be ashamed. ”
"On the subject of attractiveness, I was only sixteen years old when I fell in love with you, which is the age of shyness. Later, we started a long long-distance relationship, I went from undergraduate to doctorate, and from intern doctor to attending doctor, my skin became much thicker, and I was no longer an ignorant and simple little girl. Lin Li paused and finished his words calmly, "People are prone to be sensitive and worried when they are sick. You've just had surgery, don't be cranky. ”
Every sentence seems to make sense, but every sentence wants to cover up. Ji Yunchong frowned: "I didn't think nonsense. The night after our engagement, you were too shy to look at me. ”
Lin Li was speechless for a moment.
"Have you ever had another man since we separated?"
Lin Li was stunned, and when he understood what Ji Yunchong was asking, his face turned pale: "You-"
"Believe it or not, I don't have any other woman, never." Ji Yunchong interrupted, not caring if it would involve the wound, and held her tightly in his arms.
His voice trembled, his eyes condensed with bottomless sadness, and his eyes were slightly red: "If I want to have something happen to another woman, it's easy, but I haven't done it, and I'm 100% loyal." Mumu, do you really not love me? When your mother was alive, she praised me, saying that if you are looking for a son-in-law, you should find someone like me, who is handsome, capable, and not careful. ”
He suddenly mentioned the elders who had died in the disaster, and Lin Li was speechless.
"We swore to each other when we got engaged, I promised to protect you for the rest of your life, and you said you would love me for the rest of your life. I have not broken my oath and have done everything I can to protect you. What about you? Are you really going to abandon me? ”
Perhaps remembering his parents' affection for him, or perhaps feeling that he owed him morally, Lin Li's voice lowered: "I will soon go to Vietnam, and I will be there for three years, and there is no possibility of developing a relationship between us." ”
The medical aid happened too suddenly, Ji Yunchong stared at her, the sadness in his eyes narrowed, and he unconsciously raised his eyebrows: "Vietnam? ”
Lin Li explained the cause and effect of the incident.
After listening to this, Ji Yunchong not only did not give up, but his attitude became more persistent: "You have waited for me for eight years, what if I wait for you for three years?" Besides, I can go to Vietnam to establish a pharmaceutical branch, expand my business, and meet you again. ”
"It's not that simple, the days of getting together less and leaving more are a great test for romance."
"Eight years of trials have come through, let alone three years? I understand your ambivalence when faced with the conflict between love and career, and trust me, I will not thwart your ideals, let alone force you to do anything you don't want to do. Mumu, if I can be with you, I will support you unreservedly. ”
Lin Li's heart shook.
I really didn't expect him to be so reasonable, not only did not interfere with her work, but fully supported her.
Lin Li's surprise was written directly on her face, and Ji Yunchong's gaze locked firmly on her, adding: "Even if you don't reveal a word, I, as a bystander, feel that the man you like doesn't care about you." Otherwise why didn't he contact you if you had been in Munich for so long? Mu Mu, he doesn't cherish you, I cherish you. ”
In one sentence, Lin Li couldn't refute it.
Complex feelings are intertwined, and in the face of her ex's deep affection, she is ruthless: "He didn't contact me because he saw the overwhelming gossip reports and misunderstood me." I plan to explain it to him when I return home so that I can be with him. ”
"And then? Is he willing to let you go to Vietnam? ”
"If he can't help it, I won't go."
Such words were extremely hurtful, and even she felt unbearable. After a while, the hands that were on her shoulders loosened weakly, hanging down on the quilt, trembling slightly.
Lin Li's heart was uncomfortable, and his tone was still calm: "You have a good rest." ”
Ji Yunchong didn't say a word, and slowly closed his eyes.
She stood up, about to take a step, her dress caught in something.
She looked down at herself and saw the trembling hand clutching her skirt tightly, as if fearing that if she left, she would leave him mercilessly.
The man lying on the hospital bed stubbornly kept her in such a way.
Lin Li pinched his aching eyebrows and sat back helplessly.
Ten minutes passed.
Twenty minutes passed.
Lin Li knew that Ji Yunchong was not asleep, so he simply cleared his throat and opened the topic: "I have a good friend, her name is Guan Yi, she ......"
"I remember her." He replied with his eyes closed, his voice stiff and unusually tense, "When you used to soak in the library to prepare for your final exams, I called your dorm ten times, and nine times she helped leave a note for you. ”
He remembered the past when he was a student so clearly. Lin Li was silent and continued: "Guan Yi's father is a minority shareholder of Merrill Lynch Pharmaceutical, who passed away some time ago, but owes the bank a huge foreign debt. ”
When Ji Yunchong heard the word "Merrill Lynch", his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he quickly stretched out.
He opened his eyes, bloodshot red, as evidenced by the wolf's rejection.
Faced with such a pair of eyes, Lin Li couldn't ask openly, "Can you help Guan Yi". She felt terrible. On the one hand, they rejected him, and on the other hand, they hoped that he would help.
I don't know if Ji Yunchong heard her heart, he rubbed his eyes, rubbed away the tears in his eyes, and took the initiative to say, "How much foreign debt?" I can help. ”
Ten words.
The warm and intimate ten words solved Guan Yi's big/numb/annoying, and also saved her embarrassment when she pulled down her face and begged someone to do something.
Lin Li looked at Ji Yunchong wordlessly, remembering what his mother praised him when he was alive, which was quite a high evaluation-
"Handsome, capable, unobtrusive, filial to elders, sincere to friends."
It was at this moment that Lin Lida was depressed from the bottom of his heart.
She drooped her head in annoyance, buried her face in Ji Yunchong's quilt, like a leaky ball, and her whole body wilted.
Seeing this, Ji Yunchong leaned over with great difficulty, and finally put his head to head with her, before calling in her ear: "Mumu." ”
"What?"
He let out a low voice, "Can you not always reject me?" I'm begging you, you're liking me again, okay? ”
She was buried in the quilt for a long, long time, and at the end, the urn sounded and spit out three words.
"I try."

A "Letter of Concern" from the stock exchange was disclosed by the domestic media, which made the equity dispute between Dongsheng Group and Zhongxi Pharmaceutical quickly become the focus of public opinion.
Dongsheng later made a public reply, saying that under the framework of strict compliance with legal constraints, it used four major financing leverage tools, including equity pledge, margin trading, income swap and hierarchical asset management plan, with a leverage ratio of 1:2.
At the same time, Dongsheng disclosed a report on changes in equity, proving that in addition to more than 20 billion monetary funds, there are also more than 10 billion pre-sale funds, which is equivalent to 30 billion yuan of legal funds on the account that can be used to raise shares in Chinese and Western Pharmaceutical Industries.
The equity report is like a shot in the arm, which has doubled the confidence of investment institutions and small and medium-sized retail investors who were originally optimistic about Dongsheng Group in the secondary stock market, and they have increased their holdings of stocks.
Dongsheng also immediately issued an announcement on the suspension of trading in the asset restructuring of the company, announcing that the company's shares will be suspended in the near future.
For Dongsheng Group, which has strong strength, this restructuring is the icing on the cake, and the stock is a "one-word limit" for several consecutive trading days.
Industry insiders believe that the equity dispute between Dongsheng Group and Zhongxi Pharmaceutical has just begun, and the dust has fallen - Dongsheng is destined to be a big winner.
However, the sunnier the day, the more stormy it is. Strategists at Deutsche Investment Bank pointed out three major problems in a research report, pointing the finger at Dongsheng.
First, Dongsheng lied about the leverage ratio. Dongsheng pledged 20% of the equity and used the funds obtained in exchange for the pledge to increase the capital of A, A reinvested to increase the capital of B, and B reinvested to increase the capital of C...... In this way, part of Dongsheng's funds come from the repeated pledge of equity, and its real leverage ratio should be higher, about 1:10.
Second, an institution called "Dongsheng Chuangying Fund" holds a 17% stake in Dongsheng, which is actually the private banking arm of Shanghai Commercial Bank. In addition, other banks also contribute capital to "persons acting in concert". To put it bluntly, several commercial banks provided ammunition for Dongsheng's sniping attack on the Chinese and Western pharmaceutical industries.
Third, during the period when Dongsheng held the Chinese and Western Pharmaceutical Industries, it had an affiliated relationship with some of the controlling shareholders.
This research report is like a stone that stirs up a thousand waves.
The first point is to criticize the enterprise, the second is to criticize the commercial bank, and the third is to criticize the small and medium-sized shareholders of the Chinese and Western pharmaceutical industry, and to offend the main force in the capital market - without waiting for Dongsheng to respond, the commercial banks that were named and criticized took the initiative to defend their innocence to the CBRC, and the small and medium-sized shareholders even jointly filed a complaint with the CSRC, insisting that they absolutely did not participate in insider trading.
Deutsche Investment Bank stood on the cusp, not only did not silence, but issued another statement, admitting that it had accepted the application of Zhongxi Pharmaceutical Company and would formulate a series of anti-takeover plans in response to Dongsheng Group's sniping behavior.
One sentence in this statement stands out in particular.
"Considering that Dongsheng Group already holds 31% of the shares of Zhongxi Pharmaceutical, the investment bank does not rule out that when Dongsheng continues to hold more than 31.10% of the shares, every existing shareholder of Zhongxi Pharmaceutical can buy the newly issued shares of Zhongxi Pharmaceutical at half price."
This is a very typical poison pill tactic, also known as "equity dilution anti-takeover measures", which is a common strategy in the anti-takeover process, which can greatly dilute the equity of the acquirer (Dongsheng Group), make the acquisition price high, and thus force the sniper operation to fail.
Ji Yunchong, who was far away in Munich, listened to this statement from the mouth of his assistant, and while calmly tasting the pork bone soup that Lin Li stewed for him, he asked, "What do you think we should do now?" ”
"Deutsche Investment Bank thought that we were afraid to raise our cards rashly because of the cost of the acquisition, but we did the opposite, deliberately revealing a little flaw, so that the other party felt that there was an opportunity to fight back and throw out a poison pill plan that harmed others and was not beneficial to ourselves." After the assistant finished speaking, he asked, "Boss, should we raise our cards again and tempt the small and medium-sized shareholders of Chinese and Western Pharmaceutical Industry to veto the plan of issuing new shares with strong financial strength?" ”
Ji Yunchong smiled, the most common smile on his face in recent days. Raise your eyebrows slightly, then raise your lips, then pull your facial expressions, and finally the whole smile ripples to the bottom of your eyes.
The assistant is very familiar with such a look, which is Ji Yunchong's proud expression of spring breeze, often accompanied by calm, non-allowable decision-making opinions-
"Let's do it." He said.
Two days later, Dongsheng Group once again raised its name on the stock exchange, increasing its stake in Zhongxi Pharmaceutical by 5%, only one step away from the status of a major shareholder.
After the close of the day, Zhongxi Pharmaceutical announced an emergency suspension of trading for only one reason: the controlling shareholder planned to re-establish the matter.
The media has covered the ups and downs of the equity dispute, and the role played by Deutsche Investment Bank has also been talked about by industry insiders.
Because Hermann Joseph Hsiao, the chief strategist and managing director of Deutsche Investment Bank, has never failed in his six years in the industry.
In the capital market, it is almost impossible for a person to win many battles, either God bless luck or extraordinary skill.
Xiao Huai, apparently, is the latter.
*
Xiao Huai's evaluation of himself is diametrically opposed to the views of others.
He spends most of his day researching foreign exchange, commodities, international bond markets, and regional stock indices. In addition, he likes to look at written reports, such as public company news, corporate financial reports, and government reports, and then use extraordinary attention to the hidden information in them. These clues are precisely the focus of his negotiations with customers of listed companies, financial institutions and government departments, and they are also the auxiliary basis for his decision-making.
He cares a lot about the details. It is also precisely the case that the overloaded, high-intensity work director has little recreation.
For example, now, it is 10 o'clock in the evening when he ends his meeting with the senior management of Chinese and Western pharmaceuticals, and he still can't rest, and he must hurry up to complete the trend prediction and analysis of A-shares - tomorrow is the day when top investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley release the "A-share market analysis report for the first quarter", and Deutsche Investment Bank will also announce it at the same time.
In the office room late at night, except for a lone lamp, there is only the sound of tapping on the keyboard.
"In the long run, the trend of A-shares mainly depends on the government's efforts to open up the domestic stock market, and the current A-share market still has certain restrictions, and the bull market pattern may continue, but it will definitely pull back in the short term...... The magnitude of the correction is more difficult to estimate, and it may fall back to ...... all the gains in the first quarter of this year."
Xiao Huai stopped halfway through writing, reached for the coffee cup next to the computer, and found that the cup was already empty.
He habitually dialed the assistant's special line, and when he saw that no one answered, he remembered that he had worked overtime frequently recently, and he asked his subordinates to go home early to rest after the meeting.
He went to the pantry and brewed an instant cup of coffee, doubled the syrup, and took a sip.
…… Weird taste.
I don't know why, in the middle of the night, he especially wants to drink a latte with a strong milky aroma.
Using his phone to search for a nearby coffee shop, he went to the basement to pick up the car. The car drove out for a while when the phone rang.
The display on the console indicates the caller ID. Xiao Huai glanced at it and pressed the call button.
The mobile phone and the car Bluetooth were tied together, and Guan Yi's voice came out of the stereo with a little restraint: "Mr. Xiao, good evening, did I disturb your rest?" ”
Xiao Huai slowed down: "No." ”
"Lin Pi told me that the bank agreed to extend the loan until August. I didn't know how to express my gratitude and wanted to invite you to dinner, but Lin Li said, 'Everyone is friends, you don't have to be polite'. I thought about it and felt that I should at least say thank you in person. Mr. Siu, thank you very much for taking the time to help. ”
Xiao Huai was silent for a second or two, and his low voice was undulating without emotion: "Which loan?" ”
