Although he didn't say it explicitly, Jingyi certainly knew what he was referring to.

She didn't respond to this, but said, "Mr. Abe, I know your intentions, and you know my attitude. I still have an important appointment, so I won't accompany you. ”

As she spoke, she raised her hand and motioned for Bai Wei to send her off.

"Please, both." Bai Wei, who was always standing behind Jingyi with a heart and listening to their conversation, hurriedly stepped forward.

Abe Haruma stared at Jingyi for a long time before getting up and said as if he didn't give up: "Mrs. Tao, you will pay the price for today's choice." ”

Jingyi smiled and said, "Mr. Abe, there is an old saying in China, which is 'if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself' - my feet are China's territory." Whatever I do here, even if it costs me, as long as it's worth it, I'll do it. Da"

She raised her hand and gestured to Bai Wei again.

Bai Wei had already opened the door.

Haruma Abe stared at Jingyi and smiled, "Then I'll wait and see—Mrs. Tao, no, Mr. Cheng, your courage is commendable." But today's China is far from being able to achieve things with enthusiasm. Mr. Cheng told me a lot of ancient Chinese proverbs today. Acting aggressively is the most important thing. If Mr. Cheng changes his mind, feel free to contact me – I will be based in Shanghai. ”

His words were plain, but there was a faint domineering atmosphere.

Jing Yi sat there motionlessly, looked at him, and said softly, "Don't send it." ”

Haruma Abe nodded and saluted before leaving, and the etiquette was still thoughtful. Mo Yiyi, who followed him, took two steps and then turned around and bowed deeply silently.

Bai Wei waited for them to leave, and looked at Jingyi busily.

Jing Yi stood up from the sofa at this time, her face extremely solemn.

"Dean, you ......" Bai Wei was worried.

Jingyi said, "You go out first, Secretary Bai." ”

"Yes." Bai Wei came over and put all the coffee cups and saucers on the coffee table on the plate. She tried not to make a sound, and quietly looked at Jingyi—she lowered her head and folded her arms, and paced very slowly—her white high-heeled sandals were spotless, and stepping on the same dusty wooden floor of black and brown made a deep mark in one step...... She thought that Dean Cheng must be furious at this time. Just now, even she listened to it from the sidelines, and she couldn't wait to beat the Japanese out, with Dean Cheng's character is only noble, it is not easy to be so patient.

Jingyi stopped, and saw Bai Wei holding a plate and looking at herself, "What?" ”

"Dean Cheng, I will work hard in the hospital." Bai Wei's face turned red as she spoke.

Jing Yi was stunned for a moment, and then she understood what this young girl meant. She smiled and nodded.

Bai Wei's face became redder and redder under her smiling gaze, and she hurriedly ran out. almost bumped into Anita Mui who was about to go in.

Mei Yanchun said softly: "Look at you, what are you panicking, slow down." As she spoke, she leaned in and looked at Jingyi.

"Just say something." Jingyi sat back behind her desk. It was clearly only a brief meeting, and at this time she even felt that there were tiny insects biting and biting between the cracks of each bone...... She sat down. The electric 61 bell on the table rang, and she motioned for Xiaomei to answer.

Xiaomei held the earpiece, only fed it, did not speak, and her face changed suddenly.

She didn't hand over the earpiece to Jingyi, but deducted the earpiece, looked at Jingyi, and said, "It's the phone from home that says 61." ”

Jingyi nodded.

"Home" is the code name between them. It is only when things are urgent that the "family members" will call the number 61 of her office. Jing Yi suddenly realized that something big might have happened. Sure enough, she saw Xiaomei's crimson cheeks and shining eyes from irrepressible excitement.

Xiaomei tried her best to lower her voice, but she still couldn't suppress her excitement and said, "Wake up!" He's awake! ”

Jingyi propped up the desk and almost stood up.

Maybe this surprise came a little suddenly, she was not prepared for a while, and she was stunned.

"Yes." She replied softly. The heart is surging, but the face is not shocked. It's just that I know how excited I am at this time, and I can even hear my heartbeat clearly......

Xiaomei nodded vigorously.

"It's great." Jingyi said. She looked at Xiaomei, "It's finally good news." ”

After a major operation, Dunhuang was able to wake up so quickly, which shows the strength and firmness of his will to survive. Although the next days were difficult, he won the first battle after all. She thinks she still knows a little about Dunhuang. Perhaps the recovery period after he woke up was the most difficult...... Yuan Qiu's sad and angry voice still echoed in her ears. Compared with the second brother of the Duan family who sacrificed, Dunhuang may be called lucky in the eyes of others, but this luck is not what he wants, I am afraid it may not be.

"Oh, yes, Dean. Look at me, forget about business. Xiaomei then remembered that she had just come in, and she had something important to think about to suggest to Jingyi - she said very quickly, "A situation like today, if you don't take strict precautions, it may happen again in the future." As far as I can see, the Japanese will only become more and more rampant. In my opinion, the director might as well strengthen the guards of the hospital first, and then quickly submit a motion to the council, asking the hospital to contact the patrol room of the concession and ask them to send more manpower to protect the hospital...... At the very least, Japanese people should not be allowed to enter and leave the hospital gate at will. Today they just broke in, and they couldn't get out, and they didn't know what they were going to do in the future...... Your personal safety...... We're worried about you. ”

Jingyi said: "We are a hospital, and there are patients who come and go, and it is not good to set up strict checkpoints in and out of the hospital, which causes a lot of inconvenience." In addition, as soon as the patrol police of the patrol room came, not to mention how much they could accomplish, the patient had not yet been diagnosed and treated, and he already felt the terrifying atmosphere, which was even more bad...... Don't cause all this unnecessary trouble just for me. ”

Seeing that Jingyi immediately rejected her proposal, Anita Mui had the heart to persuade her again, and then thought about it, with the temperament of their dean, where could they be persuaded if they could be persuaded to move? She looked at Jingyi a little helplessly, and said, "Dean Cheng, where is this unnecessary trouble. If you make a mistake, that's a big deal......"

Jingyi was opening her private notepad, and when she heard this, her heart was touched, and she raised her eyes to look at Xiaomei.

Xiaomei continued: "The origin of this Japanese is unknown, Akari is the manager of a pharmaceutical company, but if he can talk to us, it is obviously a threat......

"Threats are threats, so why should I be afraid?" Jingyi said indifferently. She didn't want Xiaomei or others to be affected by the incident just now at this time. It's just that she refuses to say anything, and she has to admit that today is just the beginning...... She suddenly understood why Haruko had to visit her. Her situation was far more dangerous than she thought.

Xiaomei was silent, and she was worried about the matter at hand, and only said that she would talk to the dean later, but she still refused to give up persuasion.

She went out, and Jingyi stopped writing.

The fountain pen slammed on the letterhead, and the blue ink stained a little larger than a grain of rice.

She screwed the cap of the pen and looked at the handwriting engraved on the pen...... The wind blew in outside, carrying a faint musty smell, and it was very damp.

She heard someone talking outside, and vaguely recognized that it was Mrs. Du's voice, so she got up first, cleaned up the documents on the table, went around the desk and went to look in the mirror, and after tidying up her makeup a little, she heard a knock on the door.

"Please come in." As soon as she finished speaking, the door was open.

Xiaomei said to the dean, Mrs. Du arrived.

Jingyi saw Mrs. Du and her entourage appear at the door - Mrs. Du was at the forefront, and she was accompanied by Du Wenda's second and ninth aunts. As soon as she entered the door, Mrs. Du came over enthusiastically, took Jingyi's hand, looked left and right, and said, "We'll come when we say we'll come, disturb your office, right?" Even if you bother, bear with me, we won't come easily. ”

Jingyi smiled and said, "Where can you be called disturbed, please ......sit down" She also nodded to the second aunt and the ninth aunt who stood behind Mrs. Du silently after entering the door and only smiled at her, and asked them to sit down. Mrs. Du still held her hand, "Come on, I won't tell me what happened in the phone 61, so I am so anxious." Could it be that Mrs. Cheng is here to make a table of mahjong? ”

"You girl, you are also the head of the first hospital, if it weren't for your office and in front of your subordinates, I would have to say good things." Mrs. Du smiled.

Xiaomei took the opportunity to ask her what she wanted to drink.

"We don't drink tea. I'm here to see you, and besides, there's something going on. Mrs. Du said.

Jingyi looked at Xiaomei and nodded to let her out.

Xiaomei closed the door, and Jingyi asked, "Why is my sister-in-law here?" It's just that there is something important to discuss, and I just went on a trip in the past, so why bother to come so hard and run it in person. ”

Du Wenda takes care of their family, and on weekdays, Mrs. Du often greets her, even thinking about her everything. In terms of age, Mrs. Du is much older than her, and her love for her is obvious. Usually Mrs. Du lives in a simple house, and in such a sultry weather, she came in person...... Jing Yi thought, looking at the other two sitting on the sofa. The second aunt was too silent, and the ninth aunt smiled at her slightly, and didn't say anything, but Mrs. Du let go of her hand, took out a thick envelope from her handbag, and handed it to Jingyi.

"We, Xiao Jiu'er, the scholars organized a women's salvation association, and they forced us to join the association to be a director. I think it's false to let us all go to the board of directors, and it's true that we want to pay for it - but Mr. Du is very much in favor of it, saying that this time he has done something serious and is about to advocate it - if you tell me that it doesn't matter whether it is to save the National Assembly, the directors or something, we can do something anyway. And this effort, the first one must be in a useful place. Mrs. Du said, clicking on the envelope, "This is a little bit of our small group's heart, and we want you to use this donation in the right place for us." ”

Jingyi opened the envelope and took out a stack of checks of different sizes and amounts. She took a cursory look, except for the female dependents of the Du family, they were all dependents of famous families with surnames in Shanghai, which shows that this ninth aunt is too capable of doing things, no wonder Du Wenda and his wife rely on her a lot on weekdays...... Jingyi put the cheque back in the envelope and said solemnly, "I will immediately ask someone to make an account of these funds, file them with the council, and deposit them into the Tzu Chi account." Madame, Second Wife, and Ninth Wife, thank you very much. ”

Mrs. Du smiled and said, "Thank you, it's just a small effort...... Well, there's one more serious thing to do. ”

Jingyi saw that although she was smiling, there was a sad look in her eyes, and her heart sank, expecting that her coming here might be related to Xiao Dunhuang's injury, and sure enough, Mrs. Du said that she came today, and it was Du Wenda's approval, "Listening to Mr. Du say what happened this morning, we are very worried, we know that you are busy, and I am afraid that I can't say a word clearly in the words of the phone 61, so I will come to you to take a look by revisiting the second wife......"

As Mrs. Du spoke, her voice gradually lowered.

After she conveyed Du Wenda's greetings, she asked about Dunhuang's injury. Listening to Jingyi say that Dunhuang had just woken up, there was a look of surprise on his face. Later, she proposed to Jingyi that if she needed any help from the Du family, she would just say that it was good for Tzu Chi to provide a secret location for the rescue and transfer of the wounded, but once it was discovered and forced to need a new location, the Du family had already prepared two locations that could be contributed at any time...... "Just save his life, his condition is better, let him go to the house to recuperate." Mr. Du treated him like a brother, and this time he was seriously injured, and Mr. Du was very sad. Due to the inconvenience of his identity, he came to visit immediately. ”

Jingyi nodded in understanding.

Du Wenda and Dunhuang can be called friends of life and death, and they must be very concerned at this time. She introduced the situation in Dunhuang in detail, and asked Mrs. Du to convey it first.

Mrs. Du also listened carefully, and when Jingyi finished speaking, she sighed and said, "It's inconvenient to visit at this time...... Jingyi, you work hard. Be careful and take care of yourself. ”

"I'm in charge." Jingyi said.

When Mrs. Du looked at her, her face was not very good, and she knew that she had to deal with all kinds of chores, and she must be tired. She looked at the office and sighed again: "It's hard for you, a weak woman, to support such a big mess...... Makiyuki is on the front line, you are in the rear, and you and you have really done your best...... It's not that I said I want to admire you, or Mr. Du, they all said that you are rare. In two days, Mr. Du and I will have a banquet at home, and you must come. We'll post you in the next post. ”

Jingyi saw that she was serious and understood that it was not an ordinary banquet, so she agreed.

Mrs. Nine whispered to remind Mrs. Du that it was not too early, and Mr. Cheng still had to work. Mrs. Du also said a few more thoughtful words to Jingyi, and left with the two aunts.

Jingyi personally sent them out - the wives of the Du family traveled, and there were many servants, of course, it was not an ordinary pomp, which attracted many people to stop and watch...... Mei Yanchun was beside Jing Yi and said softly: "Mrs. Du has come to our hospital for treatment, and she is a close friend of you, I'm afraid that this time, I can be quiet and quiet, right?" ”

Jingyi thought to herself that Xiaomei's words might make sense.

In the concession in Shanghai, the central government's decrees may not be able to be carried out unimpeded, but Du's influence should not be underestimated...... She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Mrs. Du had some words that made her hear them in her ears and have mixed feelings in her heart.

In the eyes of the world, she is just a weak woman, and although it is difficult, she has survived day by day...... It's just that she herself understands that she never did it alone.

There are so many people helping her. She also has to do her best to hold on to their expectations......

61

61

61

It was already late when Jingyi got off work that day.

She shook the electricity in advance and went home in 61 words and told Mrs. Tao that she could not go home for dinner. Their words in Episode 61 are always concise. After putting down the 61 words, Jingyi left the office.

She made a few detours to make sure that she did not attract attention, and then went to the underground ward to visit Dunhuang.

After waking up briefly that day, he was in a coma for several days, and the situation was very dangerous. It was easy for the situation to officially stabilize since the day before yesterday, which really made Dr. Meng and Dr. Gao, who was specially assigned to take care of him, worry. Although Jingyi was convinced that Dunhuang would be able to break through this ghost gate, she couldn't help but be excited when she really saw him looking at her with sober eyes.

As she stood beside his bedside, she saw him blink as she looked at her, still feeling the urge to give him a big hug—but she only whispered a few words in his ear.

He was able to wake up, and she really felt that it was a gift from heaven.

Every day she came to visit him, she couldn't resist repeating it......

Xiao Dunhuang's face was so swollen that his big eyes were squeezed so that only a slit remained. It is in this narrow gap that the expression that comes out, and every time I look at Jingyi, I want to cry.

Dunhuang is a man who laughs and thirsts for the blood of the Huns. She had never seen sorrow or resentment in his eyes, much less despair. But now since he woke up, she had seen it...... It made her heart feel like a knife.

Quietly, she sat on the square bench beside the bed, and accompanied him like this; Yuan Qiu and the nurse were there, and they were also quietly doing what they had to do, and all their movements had to be put to the lightest, for fear of making a movement and disturbing the recuperation of Dunhuang—since he woke up, his temper was a little strange and irritable. But when Jingyi comes, he will be much calmer.

That's what Yuan Qiu said to Jingyi......

Before Jing Yi left, she whispered something to Dunhuang.

She said Dunhuang, do you remember that in the past, you invited me to dance, and always accidentally stepped on my feet? When you're ready, we'll do another dance, and you're not allowed to do that again...... Also, don't forget, we have a game of chess, and we have not finished it for so many years. Over the years, I have often thought about it, and I don't know how to improve your chess skills. Although I have been desolate for a long time, I still want to compete with you. We have to decide the winner...... Or did I say it before, when we have gray hair, I will cook tea and wine, and listen to your story, okay?

She looked at Dunhuang.

She could see the fluctuations in his mood from his gaze, so she whispered that you should take care of your injuries, and I will come to see you every day.

She very much hoped that Dunhuang would be able to say a few words to her at this time. He couldn't speak, and she couldn't speak...... She didn't say anything more when she walked out of the room. Yuan Qiu and the nurse were even more silent.

In the night, Jingyi walked through the hallway and left.

With her footsteps, the hem of the cheongsam brought out the wind...... For some reason, she suddenly felt a feeling of blood boiling.

When the car drove into the gate of the mansion, she saw Suixin's small figure. Sui Xin was waiting at the door with her mother. Her puppy Snowball was biting her tail in circles and playfully tore the white lion's hair...... No matter how the situation changes outside, the peace and 61 harmony in this house are still like oil paintings with light colors, so that as soon as she comes back and sees it, her heart will gradually settle down.

Jingyi asked the driver to stop the car early. When Suixin ran up, she held Suixin in her arms and didn't move for a long time...... She sniffed greedily at Suixin's body. A long time ago, she once said that even if she was sick, Suixin was the medicine that cured her. This is still true today.

Although the child was small, it seemed to be a source of her courage.

Sui Xin was originally very happy to see her mother come back, but when she saw that she was just hugging her for a long time, she obediently patted her on the back and whispered Mom, Mom is not very tired today, if you are very tired, go to bed early after dinner, I will pinch your shoulders .......

Jing Yi couldn't help laughing again, kissed Suixin's face, and said, "When I see you, I don't feel tired anymore." ”

Sui Xin took her hand and followed her to the house, and anxiously began to tell her that grandma had discussed with Aunt Wei, and Aunt Wei would move in with them in the next two days.

Jingyi nodded.

Mrs. Tao saw Jingyi and said let's eat first.

After dinner, none of them left the table immediately. Mrs. Tao looked at Jingyi and asked, "Something on your mind?" ”

Jingyi has something on her mind every day. She cares about too many people and things, and the most important one is what they care about. Although Jingyi has something on her mind, she always has to hide it in front of her, because she is afraid that she will be more worried. However, she could see that Jing Yi must have been powerless to cover up today.

Sure enough, Jingyi was asked by Mrs. Tao, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Mother, are you afraid?" ”

Mrs. Tao understood, and said with a normal face: "It's useless to be afraid." ”

Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief, and gently explained the matter of Dunhuang to Mrs. Tao, and told her about her next plan.

"Mother, it would be nice if you could take the girl first. I'm afraid it's going to be a long time before I get out. Jing Yi was in a consultative tone.

Mrs. Tao groaned. Her eyes fell on her granddaughter, Suixin.

Sui Xin had fallen asleep on Jing Yi's lap.

Jingyi gently stroked her daughter's soft curls, and heard Mrs. Tao whisper: "If you want to leave or stay, you will naturally be together." I thought before that it would be a good strategy to take the children back to their hometown with the Bai family's wife to avoid trouble. In this way, Wen Mo can have no worries. We are the same as the Bai family, if you don't have this thing to do, you can go anywhere. But you have to have a beginning and an end to your business. I'm not worried about leaving you here alone. I think, after all, this is the French Concession, and no matter how rampant the Japanese are, it is not so convenient to commit murder in the concession after all. Besides, even if you want to leave, you must plan carefully, not just leave and act rashly, but it is inappropriate. ”

Jingyi nodded.

When Mrs. Tao arrived, she urged her to go up to rest, and wanted to let her mother hug her, but Jingyi personally hugged Suixin. Seeing that she was tired, Mrs. Tao went upstairs with her heart, panting after two steps, and although she frowned, she did not say anything. followed Jingyi to Suixin's room, and when she took care of Suixin, she couldn't help but say, "Lao Qi is also worried." At this time, it is already a lot of effort to take care of a nannan, how can I bear it and toss again......"

"Makiyuki thinks more about me." Jingyi said softly.

She looked at the small appearance that made her heart tremble like a butterfly fluttering like a light butterfly in the soft light, and her eyes gradually became foggy...... When she looked back, Mrs. Tao was no longer in the room.

I don't know when it began, the relationship between her and Mrs. Tao changed subtly. Although the conversation is still neither more nor less, with Mrs. Tao here, she will feel more steady.

Aunt Li knocked on the door and came in to say Mr. Cheng, a guest downstairs had arrived.

Jing Yi frowned slightly, looked at Aunt Li and asked who it was. In the past few days, her mansion has been really lively, and there have been uninvited guests one after another. If she continues like this, she will have to live in another place just to be clean.

Aunt Li saw that she was a little unhappy, and hurriedly explained that the person said that Master Cheng had sent her to see Miss Ten......

Jingyi went downstairs to take a look, but it was Lin Zhichen who came.

"Miss Ten." Lin Zhixi looked at Jing Yi who came downstairs and saluted respectfully.

Lin Zhichen still wore his eternal black clothes. Standing in the living room, like a thick black shadow. Jingyi observed him as he walked downstairs - unlike the black shirt and pants he was used to wearing, it was rare to see him in a suit. But it was this suit that was rare to wear on him that made him look very awkward. So his cold expression and temperament, just because of this awkwardness, contrasted with each other - Jingyi couldn't help but smile.

The more she smiled, the more awkward she became.

Miss Ten shouted, and it was like a knot on the tip of her tongue.
