Chapter 57: Soul Return

"What's wrong?" Hearing this, Shu Qiang hurriedly stood up and leaned over.

Ye Shen flew up and kicked against the wall, and the whitewashed wall that looked flat and neat broke a big hole, and it turned out that he was holding a thin wooden board and making another mezzanine, which contained a very thick pipe, which was leading to the bottom. What the black shadow twisted was a very inconspicuous switch on the wall, and he didn't know what to turn on, and at this moment there was a gurgling sound of liquid flowing from the pipe, which was pouring downward.

Ye Shen didn't have time to speak, so he turned around sharply and ran to the backyard.

At this time, Shang Yucheng, who was trapped in the basement, looked at the water that suddenly gushed out of the roof pipe, and his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

She still had a glimmer of hope when she heard the footsteps overhead, maybe Ye Shen had finally found this place. Just as he was hesitating to call for help, water suddenly began to flow out of the pipes.

This can only show one problem, the person who came was not Ye Shen, but a person who wanted to put himself to death. As for who this person is, it doesn't seem to matter too much at this time.

The diameter of the pipe that was flowing was about fifteen centimeters, and the water on the ground quickly rose, according to this speed of water - Shang Yucheng looked at the corner of this dungeon, a house of about thirty square meters, and a roof more than four meters high - it didn't take ten minutes for the water to fill this room.

Thinking of this, Shang Yucheng hurriedly looked up at the window, no matter how fast it was, because of the existence of that small window, this room could never be filled with water, but she immediately thought of another problem, there was only a table more than one meter high in this room, which would never support her to emerge from the water, and she couldn't swim.

After a short period of consideration, Shang Yucheng quickly walked to the door. This is the only way to survive at the moment.

She knocked on the door vigorously, but the iron door only made the dull sound of heavy iron, and it did not move.

Shang Yucheng slammed on the door in despair, and the icy cold water spread from her thighs to her abdomen like a grim reaper, and then quickly wrapped around her chest, making her tremble all over.

She turned and struggled back to the table, scrambling onto it for a sigh of relief.

Are you going to die here today?

Shang Yucheng reached out to wipe the water off his face, and then grabbed his soaked coat.

The cold water around her made her breathless, but her brain was unusually clear. If you are going to drown here today, why not? She stared blankly at the higher and higher water surface around her, how could she have been happy after so many years?

There are no relatives around her for a long time. And the baby who only met once four years ago - the blood and bones that made her miss day and night, have never been missing, leaving her with endless thoughts and pain.

Maybe there are many well-meaning people in this world, but Su Jingyao, who is full of holes, never has the courage to find even a friend again.

The water had reached Shang Yucheng's chest, she closed her eyes slightly, and a trace of tears crossed her cold face.

It was at this time that she suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Shang Yu City! Where are you? ”

It's Ye Shen's voice!

At this moment, a strange warmth suddenly welled up in her chest, and all the fears, disappointments, and fears turned into a calm like spring, and such a sudden but seemingly natural feeling enveloped her heart, and she forgot for a moment how to respond.

"Shang Yu City!"

Ye Shen finally followed the sound of the water to find the very secret small window, and he immediately leaned on the window and shouted the name of Shang Yucheng loudly.

At this time, the two were only a few meters apart, and Shang Yucheng seemed to be awakened by Ye Shen's voice, and raised his head and said, "I'm here!" ”

Her voice was soft, with the vagueness of a big dream and a hint of excitement that could not be hidden.

"Miss Shang, are you alright?" Shu Qiang squeezed beside Ye Shen and asked anxiously.

"It's fine for the time being." Shang Yucheng replied to Shu Qiang, but his eyes were fixed on Ye Shen, and there was an anxious look of inquiry in his eyes, which made Shang Yucheng weakly forget to guard in his heart.

"Wait a minute, we'll get you up right away!" Ye Shen looked at Shang Yucheng, not knowing whether it was an instruction or a promise. The smile on his face had a strange calming effect.

Shang Yucheng nodded, and said in a weak voice, "Okay." ”

With that, she closed her eyes and fell into the water.

It was as if I had a long, long dream, and it was noisy, but I couldn't see what was going on around me. Shang Yucheng was annoyed and wanted to escape, but was stopped by a pair of warm hands.

"Yuchengβ€”"

She opened her eyes, and Lu Jingcheng's concerned eyes came into view, "Are you awake?" How does it feel? ”

Seeing that it was Lu Jingcheng, Shang Yucheng felt a little lost in her heart, she turned her eyes and looked around, only to find that she was in the hospital.

At such a moment, Shang Yucheng came to her senses completely, she looked at the hanging bottle inserted in the back of her hand, and shook her head, "I'm fine." I just feel a little tired. After saying that, she asked tentatively, "What's wrong with me?" ”

The last thing she remembered was that Ye Shen picked her up from the water in a panic, but now the person guarding her was replaced by Lu Jingcheng, I don't know how Ye Shen explained this matter to Lu Jingcheng?

Lu Jingcheng was just about to speak, Ye Shen walked into the ward with brisk steps in a hospital gown, humming an untoned song in his mouth, he saw Shang Yucheng, waved his hand and stopped, and said with a smile, "I heard that you woke up, how did you sleep this night?" ”

Shang Yucheng couldn't help but laugh, and when she smiled, she found that her lips were dry, she subconsciously licked her lips, nodded and said, "I slept well." ”

Ye Shen walked to the table and wanted to pour a glass of water, but after thinking about it, he put down his hand, raised his voice and shouted, "Nurse." ”

A young female nurse came in at the call, "Mr. Ye." ”

Ye Shen instructed, "Call Miss Shang's doctor, and then ask someone to send a copy of the therapeutic soup sent to my ward to Miss Shang as it is." ”

The nurse agreed.

Lu Jingcheng thanked him with a smile, then turned his head to Shang Yucheng and said with concern, "But what's uncomfortable?" ”

Shang Yucheng glanced at Ye Shen and shook his head slightly, "I'm fine." ”

Ye Shen said with a smile, "Miss Shang is lucky this time." But the rickshaw driver wasn't as lucky as you and broke two or three ribs. I'm afraid I'll have to lie down for a hundred and eighty days before I can do it. ”

Lu Jingcheng's face was angry, "I still feel angry when I say it." If he hadn't been careless, how could he have dropped the car into a hole in the ground? And Yu Cheng is sickβ€”"

As he spoke, Lu Jingcheng grabbed Shang Yucheng's hand with some distress.

It turned out that Ye Shen ran to the ward as soon as possible, just to tell her what to say about dealing with Lu Jingcheng. Shang Yucheng glanced at him quickly, pulled out the hand held by Lu Jingcheng, and said softly, "I want to drink saliva." ”

Lu Jingcheng hurriedly got up and poured a cup for her. At this time, the doctor walked into the ward, and while asking a few words routinely, he looked at Shang Yucheng's situation, and finally said, "Miss Shang's cold is quite serious, although there is no major problem, she must stay in the hospital for a few days to avoid respiratory complications." ”

Lu Jingcheng nodded and signaled that he understood.

Waiting for the doctor to go out, Lu Jingcheng said with some self-reproach, "It's not good to blame me for this matter, I know that you have always been afraid of trouble and don't want to ask the driver to follow, so I will go with you." Now it seems that I am all to blame for being too indulgent of you. It's me who didn't take care of you. ”

It's not surprising that Lu Jingcheng said this, Shang Yucheng is his fiancΓ©e, and it's not too much to say something intimate about taking care of each other. But hearing these words at this time, it made Shang Yucheng a little uncomfortable.

"How can I blame you for this?" Shang Yucheng said a word, diverting the topic, "Hey, why don't you see Xianglin?" ”

Lu Jingcheng said, "I told her to go back and cook some of your favorite dishes, and then prepare some things you want to use." Now that you're awake, I'm going to call her and call her. ”

Shang Yucheng nodded, "Thank you, Jing Cheng." ”

Lu Jingcheng got up and said with a smile, "Why are you so polite?" After speaking, he turned his head to Ye Shen and said, "Now that you are also sick, I don't dare to work for you to lead the way." Sit down for a moment, and I'll make a phone call. ”

Ye Shen smiled, "There is a phone in the doctor's office on the other side of the corridor, you can go." ”

Lu Jingcheng turned around and walked out of the ward.

When Lu Jingcheng was here, he seemed to have a lot of things to say to him, but he couldn't say them. But at this time, Lu Jingcheng left, but he didn't know what to say. Shang Yucheng had no choice but to say, "Are you sick?" ”

Ye Shen raised his arm slightly and said, "I suffered a little skin injury, so I don't care." After thinking about it, he added, "But Jing Cheng thought I was seriously injured, it's a long story, and I'll explain it to you when I have a chance in the future." ”

Shang Yucheng nodded, was silent for a long time, and then said, "I-thank you this time." ”

Ye Shen glanced at her carefully, frowned, didn't answer, only said, "You disappeared for two days and three nights, turned around and entered the hospital again, so Jing Cheng I thought of an excuse on my own." Let's just say that on your way home from school that day, the rickshaw driver accidentally pulled the car and fell into a big pothole with broken water on the road, you fainted, and you were taken to Keats Hospital with the driver, but the doctor didn't recognize you, so you couldn't find your family. After a pause, he said, "The coachman has also arranged it in case Lu Jingcheng wants to pursue it." ”

Shang Yucheng keenly felt that Ye Shen was a little unhappy, but she didn't know why, so she had to say that she was tired, picked up the water cup on the side, and took a sip.

Ye Shen was silent for a moment before lowering his voice and asking, "What does Gao Cangyue want you to do?" ”

Now that he is down to business, Shang Yucheng also became serious, "She wants me to proofread a manuscript for her." She frowned slightly, "I didn't know what the manuscript was for, but when I was proofreading, I found one thing: the manuscript had omissions and errors every fixed number of words, which means that the original was probably damaged by external forces." If it's just an ordinary manuscript, even if you want to copy it, you don't have to restore it exactly in the place of each word. Based on various clues, I deduced-" Shang Yucheng looked at Ye Shen, "that is probably a codebook!" ”

"Codebook?" Ye Shen also frowned slightly.

Shang Yucheng nodded, "Although it's not 100% certain, I think it's very likely." I just don't know who that manuscript belongs to. ”

Ye Shen groaned.

The two fell silent again, but soon, Ye Shen, who had finished the call, returned to the ward, and Ye Shen got up to say goodbye and leave.

"You haven't seen you for the past two days, but it really scares me to death." Lu Jingcheng saw that Ye Shen was gone, and his speech became more casual. Don't be careless like that again, you know? ”

Shang Yucheng nodded and responded, "I see." ”

The two talked, and when Xianglin came to the hospital, Lu Jingcheng got up to leave, "I'm really sorry for you." Huijin still has some business over there, and I'll come back to you when I'm done. ”

Shang Yucheng said, "Since you have something, you don't have to rush to see me, Xianglin is more convenient here." ”

Lu Jingcheng felt that it made sense, so he nodded with a smile and left.

Probably because of the loss and recovery, Lu Jingcheng took great care of Shang Yucheng in the next few days, and stayed in the ward to accompany her except for official business. But Ye Shen never showed up again.

This seems unusual, after all, since they met, Ye Shen has often come uninvited on various occasions, and this time, it is obviously the time when the two should meet the most, but they are not biased.

Shang Yucheng didn't know what the rescue that day meant to Ye Shen, but for himself, Ye Shen at that moment broke all her disguises, and all her hot and fresh enthusiasm seemed to return to her blood, making her uncontrollably start to miss Ye Shen.

However, Ye Shen never came back.

After a week in the hospital bed, Shang Yucheng finally got the doctor's permission to go home. Xianglin was diligent and packed his things early, and the two sat in the ward and waited.

Shang Yucheng glanced up at the wall clock and ordered, "You go buy a cup of coffee, and by the way, call the second young master and ask him when he will comeβ€”if he is busy, he doesn't have to come to pick it up, let's call a car and leave." ”

Xianglin agreed and turned around, and Ye Shen arranged a senior ward for Shang Yucheng, and there was a special place to serve drinks on this floor.

Shang Yucheng got up and walked to the window, stretched out his hand to push the window open, but couldn't do anything after trying for a long time.

"I'll do it." An arm stretched out behind him and pushed the window open.

Fresh, cool air blows in your face. Shang Yucheng took a light breath, turned his head and smiled faintly, "Jing Cheng." ”

Lu Jingcheng hugged her shoulder affectionately, "Be careful, don't get frostbite anymore." ”

Shang Yucheng smiled, "You don't have to be so careful, you won't be sick once and become Sister Lin." ”

Lu Jingcheng said with a smile, "Even if she is not Sister Lin, she is also the weakest and most delicate beauty." It's always good to be careful. ”

Shang Yucheng smiled, and when he saw Xianglin coming back with coffee, he said, "Let's go back." ”

Lu Jingcheng said with a slight concern, "Do you really want to go back?" I see you're not in good spirits, so don't you stay and observe for two more days? ”

"No need." Shang Yucheng shook his head, "It's the same with resting at home. ”

Lu Jingcheng hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Then let's go back." ”

Xianglin hurriedly carried his things downstairs, and Lu Jingcheng also carried a box and helped Shang Yucheng to walk out.

As soon as he walked to the top of the stairs, he bumped into two people coming upstairs, it was Ye Shen and Jia Wenxin.
