Chapter 100: After Awakening, Unexpected Birth
Zhou Yi opened his eyes, and he was greeted by the warm-toned walls and somewhat dim lighting. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIt's dark and dark, but there's a striking white outside the window. When I looked closely, I found that it was already snowing like goose feathers outside. The ground was covered with a thick layer of snow. Against the backdrop of this snow, the thick night is dyed with a delightful white.
Seeing this white, Zhou Yi was stunned, and then suddenly shook his head, revealing a wry smile. It's almost Christmas day, how can it not snow. It seems that he has been too busy during this time. Even the time is confused.
Thinking of this, he sat up from the clean, warm bed with his head covered. Although the brain is still in a groggy state due to prolonged hibernation, it no longer affects his judgment of the environment he is in.
It's a hospital room, at least that's what it looks like. Zhou Yi can make a rough judgment from the various monitoring instruments around him and the hospital gown on his body. However, Zhou Yi is not sure where the ward is.
He only wished it wasn't in a hospital room in Paris, because that would make it more likely that he would be exposed. At the same time, it is also the most critical. Zhou Lan and Xia Ruisi would know about this, and this was the last thing he wanted to happen.
Part of the reason, of course, was that he didn't want to take on the absolutely astronomical debt for the reconstruction of the ruined Paris. He's rich, good, but he doesn't spend it like that.
In fact, for Zhou Yi, it is all aimless fantasy. If he really wants to know the answer, he can turn on super vision to make an accurate positioning of his location, and the effect is definitely much better than GPS. But he didn't have that kind of thought, and after such a battle, he suddenly found that some burnout was born in his heart.
That's not to say that he's grown disgusted with the dangerous cause of superheroes. Instead, he needs to give himself some time to catch his breath. Everything that has happened recently has created a strong antipathy in his spirit, he has already received praise from a hero, and it is time to rest for a while.
With this state of mind, he began to have the idea of controlling his own power and experiencing life as an ordinary person, and it was not a good thing for him to withdraw the Dawn Knight from this world for a while. At the very least, it will allow him to avoid troublesome public opinion. He knew one thing very well, and that was in Paris. Public opinion will not be very favorable to him.
Although he saved Paris, but for the city. It was his arrival that brought about this calamity for them. Humans are not idiots, and they will always find out that it all happened because of his gamble with Magneto. And once someone has a heart to aim the cannon at him, he doesn't have the leisure to defend himself.
Instead of sitting back and waiting, it is better to just play disappear. When the next catastrophe comes, mankind will always remember his goodness. It would be wisest for him to appear again at that time.
As a businessman, it is not an exaggeration for him to have such thoughts in his own nature. He doesn't need to change anything because of his heroism. He is him, the unique Knight of the Dawn - Zhou Yi. There is no need to accommodate anyone.
Zhou Yi silently calculated the plan for the next period of time, this time. Someone pushed open the door and walked in, and it was Auroro who entered.
She wore a more casual home-style dress and carried hot food and water in her hands. Obviously, this is for someone, and Zhou Yi is very sure that he is the lucky guy. But it wasn't this that he cared about, but Auroro's somewhat haggard look. Although she covered her face with light makeup, Zhou Yi could still keenly notice that she had some dark and blue eye bags and emaciated cheeks.
"Hey, dear. What shall I say, long time no see? Temporarily suppressing this question in his heart, Zhou Yi greeted Auroro.
Hearing this familiar voice, Auroro's hand shook. A distinct smile began to appear on her face, and she looked at where the voice had come from, where the person she knew most was leaning back on the bed, smiling and waving at her.
"Thank God, Yi. You're finally awake!" Auroro replied eagerly, and even rushed to the side of the bed in a posture that almost pounced. Such a fierce action almost knocked over the plate in her hand, but fortunately, Zhou Yi protected these important things.
Seriously, he's starving.
Holding Auroro's hand with one hand and holding the plate firmly with the other, Zhou Yi said with a smile.
"Honey, you're so excited. Let me guess, is it because I've been sleeping for years and finally waking up with a big surprise that makes you lose control of your emotions? ”
"Easy!" Aurora looked at him with a long voice, but his other hand was tightly holding Zhou Yi's big hand. As if to absorb warmth and security, her hands were so hard that her knuckles began to turn slightly white. And she herself just stared at Zhou Yi silently with a gentle look. For the expression of her feelings, she seems to be unable to modify it with words, and can only express it in the most direct way.
As for Auroro's actions, Zhou Yi smiled and gently stroked the back of her hand. He felt the emotion in Auroro's heart, which made him proud and guilty. Pride is because there is a woman who loves herself like this. The guilt is because she is worried and scared like this. For a moment, the two fell into a warm silence.
Sometimes, emotions become more resilient in the face of great tribulations. Zhou Yi and Auroro are like this, their relationship has become deeper because of this incident, and they have also penetrated deeper into each other's hearts.
The two of them warmed each other's palms and hearts like this, until Zhou Yi's stomach came from a dissatisfied protest. Auroro couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"I'm sorry, I forgot you must be hungry right now. Originally, I just prepared some things routinely. Unexpectedly, you really woke up. ”
"Thankfully, it's better to have food than not to eat." Zhou Yi directly picked up the sandwich on the tray, and the thick toast was sandwiched between the fried beef and the good-looking fried egg. Of course, verdant vegetables and sauces are indispensable. It seems that because it is made exactly according to Zhou Yi's taste, the sauce of this sandwich does not use the usual salad dressing, but uses the chili sauce that is loved by very few people. Of course, the full portion is also to take care of Zhou Yi's hobby.
For this kind of appearance, the taste is also quite good. And it is a sandwich made completely according to his own preferences, and Zhou Yi is absolutely not stingy with a little praise. After gobbling down the sandwich in his hand, he began to speak in an exaggerated tone.
"Auroro, I think your craft has made a breakthrough, according to the appraisal of professional foodies like me, your sandwiches are definitely at the top level in the world, maybe I should call the chefs of those three-star Michelin restaurants and let them learn together."
"Oh my God, you're exaggerating. I think you're so hungry that your brain can't even tell the smell. Auroro gave him a blank look, but smiled heartily.
"Really? But I was really hungry, and I think I could even eat a hundred of these sandwiches. Or just go to the Big Stomach and I feel like I'll be able to eat all the food on the court. ”
"Then you'll make headlines where the billionaire overeats at the Big Stomach contest and the organizers are vehemently demanding that he pay for it. Hey, slow down. You should drink something. ”
"Thank you, dear." Taking over the hot milk in Auroro's hand, Zhou Yi directly completed the task of clearing the cup. After satisfying his appetite thoroughly, he put down his cup and asked Auroro.
"Honey, can you tell me how long I've been in a coma and what's going on?"
"Don't worry!" Auroro meticulously cleaned up the food crumbs from his body, and a gentle smile on his face. "Magneto has completely lost news, and with his personality, he probably won't appear in front of the little naughty again. In addition, Jean and Logan only suffered minor injuries and recovered quickly. It's just you, you've been in a coma for a week. I didn't dare take you to the hospital, so I had to use the academy's plane to take you back to the academy. However, I have already made an excuse for your family, and you have been asked by us to help some of our compatriots in Paris evacuate there, and you will not be separated for the time being. This excuse should be able to delay a little longer. ”
"Well, it looks like everything is fine. Still, Auroro. Can you tell me why you're so emaciated? Your face doesn't look very good, if not bad. I can see through my makeup. ”
"It's just a little thing, and of course the main reason is to worry about you. Nothing else, I'll be back soon. Auroro had an obvious smile on her face, trying to get through with words. But for Zhou Yi, this is completely useless. He knew enough about Auroro to tell if her every word was true or false.
Gently holding her hand, Zhou Yi put on a sincere smile.
"My dear, I'm so glad you're so worried about me. But I know that's not all, I know my situation myself very well and won't let you be haggard like this. Tell me the truth, we are the other half of each other, and you can put all your burdens on me. ”
"There's really nothing, easy!"
"Auroro, look me in the eye. Tell me what kind of problem you're hiding in your heart, okay? ”
"Okay!" Auroro let out a hard breath, she really needed someone to share the pressure on her. "Something happened in the academy, and the professor and Scott were all gone. Jean's mental state is a little unstable, and Logan seems to be guilty of the same old problem. And the most important thing is that there are only three of us and Hank in the academy, and I am under a lot of pressure. Because I have to take care of the school while the professor is away. ”
"However, at this time, something big happened. The president was attacked by mutants, although there was no question of life. But the president has asked for a proposal to be launched to address the mutant problem. At this point, I really didn't know what to do. ”
Listening to Auroro's confession, Zhou Yi silently hugged her and kissed her forehead gently.
"Don't worry, dear. I'll help you with that. ”
"No, no. Your own problems are serious, and we can solve them. I don't need your help, really. Easy, you don't have to get involved in here. It has nothing to do with you, you're already in trouble enough. Auroro immediately rejected Zhou Yi's kindness, she knew what was going on in public opinion now. The Knights of Dawn have something to face, no easier than they are. She really didn't want Zhou Yi to do such a stupid thing at this time.
"No, dear. It's about me, at least on the professor. ”
"Professor?" There was a clear confusion in Auroro's voice, and she realized something she didn't know.
