Chapter 246: Wounds
When the three arrived at John's house, George had already arrived. Seeing Cui Can and Chen Jiu greet them with a polite smile, they gave Cui Can and Chen Jiu a polite hug, then sat on the side and talked and laughed with a few people. After welcoming the guests, Joan ran to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Cui Can sat for a while, and then followed to the kitchen. After all, a few big men chatting, what is there to talk about as a woman?
"Why are you here? I'll be here for a while. "Joan loves to cook, so whenever she has time, she prepares the food herself. Today, for the first time, Cui Can was invited to come over as a guest, so she was even more happy to prepare the dishes by herself.
"I want to learn from you." Cui Can walked up to her with a smile and saw that she was frying steak.
Knowing that Cui Can was studious, Joan didn't say anything more, but instructed Cui Can: "This is a veal steak, so it's relatively tender, I marinated it for half an hour......"
By the time everyone had eaten the food that Joan had carefully prepared, everyone was satisfied. "Joan, your craftsmanship is amazing!"
Cui Can gave a thumbs up, although she likes to eat, she is not very talented, and when the food arrives in her hands, it is only cooked, but Chen Jiu has talent in this area. Joan loves good food and makes her own great food.
"Well, Joan's craftsmanship is really good!" George also had to admit that Joan's craftsmanship was really good, not much inferior to the craftsmanship of the chefs he had eaten. The main thing is that the food she cooks seems to have its own characteristics, which makes it difficult to ignore, which is really good.
Chen Jiu also had to admit this. "Joan's craftsmanship is really not covered, it was the best meal I've had since I came to England, thanks to John for bringing me here. I want to thank Joan for being so good. ”
"Huh!" Joan, who was praised by everyone, just smiled confidently, did not modestly say that she was not doing well, nor did she show off proudly, as if what everyone said was normal.
But John smiled proudly, and kissed Joan from time to time, completely oblivious to the other guests. Fortunately, everyone is familiar with it. I didn't feel embarrassed.
Just when the atmosphere in the restaurant was thick, Cui Can's phone rang. When I picked it up, it was Liu Shiwei's phone. Although he was puzzled about how he could call him so late, Cui Can still picked it up.
"Liu Shiwei? Why did you think you were calling me at this time? ”
"Hello? Hello, we are here at Stomaria Hospital, are you a friend of the owner of this call? The other party obviously didn't expect Cui Can to answer the phone and say such a language that he didn't understand. After being stunned for a while. Only then did he slowly speak. It's just that although his voice is pleasant and his attitude is polite, it makes Cui Can's heart hang.
"Yes, I'm his friend, what's wrong with him?" Cui Can's voice attracted the attention of everyone in the living room, and Chen Jiu held her hand even more worriedly. After all, Cui Can spoke Chinese just now, and only Chen Jiu knew that this was for Liu Shiwei's sake. John and George also knew Chinese. Although he is not very proficient, he also understands Liu Shiwei mentioned in Cui Can's words. Obviously, this is related to Liu Shiwei.
Joan didn't understand, but she could see the nervousness in Cui Can's expression, so she also stared at Cui Can cautiously.
After Cui Can nodded in response, he hung up the phone.
"What's wrong? Is it Wei? What happened to him? John stared nervously at Cui Can, just waiting for her to hurry up and give him an answer. George and Liu Shiwei didn't know each other, so they weren't nervous, but the expression on their faces was also full of worry, an expression of worry for their friends.
Chen Jiu silently hugged Cui Can, "I'll refund the return ticket." "They booked a plane home tomorrow morning, and it seems that there is no going back.
Cui Can nodded, looked at John and said, "Liu Shiwei was beaten, according to the doctor, he had two broken ribs, broken leg bones, and broken internal organs. I couldn't see it on my face, and if I hadn't found the phone on him, I'm afraid I wouldn't know his identity. ”
Although Cui Can's expression was very calm, her voice was trembling, and Chen Jiu hugged her tightly in distress. John and George's faces were also ugly, and they glanced at Cui Can worriedly, and found that although she was very distressed, she was still sane. "Let's go back."
So saying, John stood up. Qiong also stood up, "I'll clean up for you, and you can go back with Cui Can." ”
John hugged his wife and kissed her on the cheek. "Thank you Joan, I'm so blessed to have you as my wife." Joan smiled and went back to their bedroom.
George also stood up, "Is there a plane at such a late hour?" Why don't I get my plane here? "Needless to say, George's family has strength, so he still has a private jet.
John patted him on the shoulder, "Thank you, then go and drive your lover, right?" "George's plane is his favorite, so everyone jokingly calls it his lover.
George didn't ramble anymore and made a phone call as he walked out. Suddenly, there were only John and Cui Chan Chen Jiu in the hall. Cui Can has calmed down a lot at this time, "Thank you John, I really don't know how to say my thanks." ”
Even if Cui Can and Chen Jiu have more abilities, they will be useless in the UK at this time, so all of this depends on John, the head snake.
John patted Cui Can's shoulder, "Don't say that, he's also my friend." ”
Cui Can nodded, and then stopped talking, but analyzed how this happened? Liu Shiwei, a traveler, how could he encounter such an injury? What did the police say?
Chen Jiu knew that she only needed to accompany Cui Can at this time, and she didn't need to do anything else, what she needed at this time was companionship. "Don't worry, since he's already in the hospital, there won't be a problem with his life."
Cui Can nodded, she remembered her panic for no reason, obviously her hunch came true. Liu Shiwei really had an accident, so did he get the benefit of practicing the exercise that Shuling let him practice?
Just when Cui Can was flustered and in a daze. Suddenly, I heard the sound of a propeller overhead, apparently a helicopter flying overhead.
"Shall we go out? Presumably George's wife is here. "Of course, this wife is referring to George's helicopter. After John finished speaking, he took the luggage that his wife had prepared for him. Take the lead and walk out of his house.
At this time, I have to admit that there are still benefits to a big house, just like John's house in front of me. Located in the suburbs of London, the castle-like building and the large lawn in front of the house are even more eye-catching. At this time, I saw a bright silver-gray helicopter slowly falling on the lawn, and George followed Cui Can and the others towards the helicopter. Obviously, someone else was flying the plane at this time. Although the propeller reduced its speed, the wind still blew Cui Can's clothes flying, and the skirt was about to cover Cui Can's face.
Chen Jiu hurriedly helped Cui Can press the hem of his skirt. Carrying the luggage of the two of them, he leaned over and walked to the front of the plane. George had already switched places with the pilot, and standing under the plane was a black man in his forties and fifties. They nodded politely, and he turned around and walked towards the gate of John's house.
When the plane landed again. It was already an hour later, and Cui Can and John landed directly on the roof of the hospital. It seems that this George family still has some strength in the UK, otherwise how could they have such ability? Let the hospital give the green light, supposedly on the way here. Liu Shiwei's surgery has begun. Presumably at this point. He's out of danger, right?
Thinking so, Cui Can and Chen Jiu glanced at each other, and then their eyes fell on George. found that he was still so unhurried behind the two, without speaking, just following.
John led a few people down from the roof to the operating room, obviously he was familiar with this place, and soon found the operating room where Liu Shiwei was.
The lights in the operating room are on, indicating that the operation is in progress. The corridor outside was quiet, and there were no idle people. Chen Jiu motioned for Cui Can to sit on a chair at the door and wait for the operation to end. He followed John to a doctor who understood the situation.
George sat next to Cui Can, and just when Cui Can thought he wouldn't speak, he asked Cui Can softly, "Does he have a good relationship with you?" ”
At this time, the two were looking at the door of the operating room, so Cui Can didn't have to think about it to know that he was asking Liu Shiwei. "How so? This is the second time we've met, and we've had a correspondence before, but we haven't had much. We should just be friends, right? No matter how cordial the relationship is, there will be no more. ”
George listened quietly, and when Cui Can thought he wouldn't speak again, he asked slowly, "Do you care so much about everyone you know?" ”
"No, I know a lot of people, and not all of them care that much. And Liu Shiwei also paid more attention because he had just lost his wallet, plus he was in a foreign country, so he had more intimacy with each other. Above all, I'm not a philanthropic person. ”
Cui Can's answer made George nod. "You're happy to be your friend, aren't you?"
"You'll have to ask my friend about this, I can't answer you." Cui Can doesn't know what's wrong with George, he always feels weird, as if he wants to ask something? But I don't know how to speak.
"Am I your friend?" It was a long time before Cui Can heard George ask gently, and to her surprise, the question itself, and the person who asked it.
He looked at George in surprise, his face indifferent, as if he didn't say it. "I don't know how you positioned me, but I regarded you as a friend, although not as good as John's relationship with me, but much better than many people." Cui Can doesn't like hypocrisy, so when talking to people, she is generally straightforward, even on some occasions when she can't tell the truth, she also euphemistically expresses her opinions, and she can't accept it, but she can't say that she is telling lies. So after such a long habit, she has disdained to lie.
George nodded, "I believe you, so can I make friends with you?" ”
George's straightforwardness made Cui Can's surprise impossible to hide, especially in the face of George's serious look, Cui Can didn't know how to express his thoughts. Is this person too direct? But anyone like George would not admit this, because this guy has a good education, so he always speaks very deeply, and if he didn't hear it with Cui Can's own ears, he wouldn't dare to imagine that it came out of George's mouth.
Regarding Cui Can's expression, George was a little annoyed, but he still insisted. I'm afraid only he knows his own nervousness.
Cui Can felt his nervousness, and although he didn't understand the reason, he didn't think about refusing. So he nodded, "I don't know what your so-called heart-to-heart is, I can only guarantee that I will show my sincerity to associate with you." ”
George breathed a sigh of relief, with a slight smile on his face. "Thank you, I've always wanted a female confidant, and you meet all my requirements for a female confidant, so I don't want to miss you."
Before Cui Can could continue to say anything about friendship, he heard Chen Jiu's voice from the corridor: "Who don't you want to miss?" Is it Cui Can? ”
As his footsteps approached, his black face was also seen by Cui Can and George. Cui Can knew that this guy had misunderstood, and the vinegar smell was very strong. George also knew that Chen Jiu was jealous, although he wanted to explain, but seeing that Cui Can didn't care, he was also happy to see Chen Jiu's jokes.
It's a pity that although Chen Jiu is jealous, he still has reason. Looking at Cui Can and George's expressions, and the distance between each other, he also knew that he might have misunderstood something. So looking at Cui Can, waiting for her to explain to herself.
John walked after him, and he also listened to the end, so he asked Cui Can with rare curiosity: "Who does George not want to miss?" You? How do I not know when you guys are so good? ”
John didn't notice that after his question was asked, Chen Jiu's face turned completely black into the bottom of the pot, and his eyes were deeply ruthless when he looked at George. In the end, George was scared by him, and hid behind Cui Can to avoid the excessive eyes. John also realized that there was ambiguity in what he said, and smiled insincerely at George.
Cui Can glanced at Chen Jiu without being in the mood, then looked away and continued to stare at the door of the operating room.
Chen Jiu was a little uncertain by this look, so he didn't continue to ask questions, and sat down beside her. John sat down on George's side. "I asked the doctor, it was found by a homeless man, and it is said that the police have intervened. However, due to the lack of clues, I am afraid that there will be no news in the short term. And Wei's ID is not on him, and he is afraid that he will have to face the intervention of the police in the investigation. Although we can prove his identity, we can't just reveal it. Also, the doctor asked me if he might contact his immediate family? ”
Speaking of this, Cui Can was also very helpless. "I don't know about his family, so if I want to contact his family, I'll have to wait until he wakes up."
Several people's eyes were cast on the door of the operating room. (To be continued......)
