Chapter Twenty-Nine: A New Mission
twenty-two
The sky was almost white, and the darkness was gradually dyed by the halo of the east.
The heavy snow gradually stopped, and even the early sun loomed.
Daisy Jiu stood on the top floor, the wind in the early morning was like a frost knife, cutting through the front door, her long hair fluttering, and the thin skirt on her body was torn apart by the wind.
The long dark night has passed.
However, her night began long ago and was far from over.
There was a sound of footsteps stepping on the snow behind him: "You really don't have even a little worry about him?"
Dai Xijiu's back was straight, and his body was motionless: "Worried about him, can the result of the rescue be changed?"
The young man's expression was leisurely with a little deep indignation and forbearance, and he approached the railing in a few steps, and pulled the wrist of the girl in front of him: "He is like this, it is for you." ”
Between the movements, the girl's figure turned around, and her eyes were actually calm, without any hesitation or sadness.
The voice finally rose sharply: "The same person who is about to die for you, why can he do that for Fu Zhi, but he is so cold-blooded and ruthless?"
Dai Xijiu lowered his head and smiled slowly, and his voice was cold and quiet: "Have you ever loved someone?"
When he said this, his eyes were a little empty: "Ignoring my life twice in a row, shouldn't I hate it except for being sad and worried?"
Percy tightened his fingers as he grabbed his wrist, "But, are you dead?"
Dai Xijiu choked in his throat and raised his head leisurely.
Percy let go of his hand and looked at him coldly: "With the heart you thought was full of holes, go and see him." ”
"Do you know what his body is?"
Speaking of this, with a slightly sarcastic and desolate smile, he turned and walked away.
Dai Xijiu stood silently in place, and Ye Xiuwen's face as pale as snow clearly appeared in his mind.
The cold wind was howling, and the voice from behind him was low and cold: "Let him save Fu Zhi, but who will save him?"
Dai Xijiu's fingers that had pressed the railing tightened, his eyes shimmered, his body gradually stiffened, and he stood still for a long time.
Elvis had the first rays of sunlight on the side of her face on the early winter morning.
At this moment, his expression suddenly brushed through several layers of helplessness and deep fear, his face was cold and hard, and his outline was particularly immature, like a panicked and helpless child.
After all, he started leisurely, without stopping for a minute, and turned around and ran towards the corridor.
In the shadows on the top floor, Percy crossed her hands around her chest and looked at the back of the girl running down, her eyes staring.
Then he spoke to the person beside him who bowed his head slightly, the young man was slender, but his body was cold, and his voice was swaying: "The business under your second young lady is the most prosperous in the Milwaukee area. ”
"That's true, what does Deacon Left command?"
The corners of Percy's mouth hooked a little sharp arc: "What Lord Ye means, tell me back." ”
"Now that Mr. Churchill, who is in charge of her subordinate, is now seriously ill, after a while, your master can naturally let go and ask her to start preparing. ”
The figure in the darkness was a little sluggish, and he thought for a moment and then bowed his head: "The forces in the Milwaukee area are intertwined and complicated, because the income accounts for a large proportion of the entire family, so in recent years, Mr. Churchill has a high level of power and a strong sense of autonomy. ”
"Even if our young lady does not interfere, whether or not we can pass to the third miss depends on Mr. Churchill's wishes......"
Percy rubbed her fingers lightly, and blew lightly with a relaxed expression: "Just tell the old woman to do it, and we'll arrange the rest." ”
The floor of the medical center is not high, and it is only a matter of time before you run to the emergency room.
But Daisy had never felt that she was running so slowly, and there was only an unexpectedly clear purpose in her mind.
She wanted to see him.
Look at him.
Even if she was alive, she was especially sad, but the thought of him might die, this panic was like a string that came from all directions and tightened her limbs, and could tear her apart at any moment.
When I ran to the corridor, I saw that the red light in the emergency room had gone out.
She almost rushed over, and only saw through the glass window the empty mattress inside, the snow-white pillow side blood rendering, had turned a little dark red.
There was a nurse cleaning the equipment inside, and when she looked up again, she saw a girl whose lips trembled slightly, and her eyes still carried a little sluggish and helpless.
She walked in through the doorway, walking slowly with each step and speaking in a very soft voice: "What about him?"
The nurse was stunned for a moment, and then she felt her hand being tightly slammed by a cold palm, and the girl's voice was hoarse: "Tell me, where is he?"
At this moment, in the hospital corridor, the emergency bed pushed inch by inch from the door behind Daisy Jiu.
The person on the bed was wearing an oxygen mask, breathing very lightly, and his face was as pale as snow under the cold incandescent light, as if it were transparent.
The doctors on both sides of the bed, with cold and hard expressions, one of them was holding a hanging bottle in his hand, and the needle was connected to the pale wrist hanging on the side of the bed, and he raised his head leisurely and glanced into the ward with deep meaning.
The nurse immediately remembered the words ordered by her superiors, but the girl in front of her was too sad, and her body seemed to be covered with a layer of deep pain and desolation that could not be dispersed, so she still stretched out her hand and patted her shoulder: "It is intermittent heart failure caused by the excessive use of special drugs, and the rescue is timely, there is no major problem, you can rest assured." ”
"It's just that I've recently undergone special treatment in the sterile room, and it may take a while to fully recover. ”
Until this moment, Dai Xijiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, a bitter smile spread across the corners of his mouth, and then sat down against the side of the bed.
Covering his eyes with his hands, he said softly: "Let me be alone, okay?"
The nurse paused for a moment, then nodded slightly, turned the door and exited.
Daisy Jiu leaned back on the bed, her side face against the pillow, especially the residual warmth, and the tip of her nose was a very familiar taste.
She looked at the cold corridor of the window, finally pulled the futon against her forehead, gently closed her eyes, and her consciousness relaxed and gradually blurred.
She should have hated everything about him, but at this moment, she felt so bitter and so relieved.
Deeply in love with someone who can no longer be loved, it is sad from the beginning.
It's ridiculous that she is so afraid that even this sadness can't last.
Human life is a long and lonely existence, gaining and losing, meeting and parting, never ending, no matter who is missing, it still has to live.
Outside the window, the winter was at its peak, and through the five-colored glass, Dai Xijiu sat on the sofa in the Zunshou Hall, flipping through the unmarked brief history of the Elvis family that was no longer marked.
In the kitchen, the waiters were busy going back and forth, and Frien sat at the dining table, knocking on the edge of the bowl with a knife and fork, drooping his ears, and muttering: "Sister, the things they make are so unpalatable, when will that person come back?"
Dai Xijiu turned a page, the pen in his hand moved lightly, and his voice was faint: "When I can cook for you again." ”
Frion frowned several times and muttered, "It's been five days, my mouth is crying, and my stomach is going to flatten......"
There was a light snap at the door, and the attendant pulled the door, and then he saw a person in a black suit, carrying a large stack of over-the-top materials, putting them on a few, and bowing slightly towards Daisy Jiu: "Third Miss, this is the latest thing that needs to be approved by the Dark Temple, please take a look." ”
Dai Xijiu rubbed his temples with great annoyance: "Send it to the study." ”
The figure quickly went up and down, his expression was quite subtle, serious and serious: "Third Miss, you haven't approved the report you sent over last time, the task has not been clearly approved, and the departments of the Dark Temple have been slightly abnormal, if it goes on like this, what should I do if the Dark Temple goes out of business?"
How could Ye Xiuwen have such a persistent and brainless subordinate.
This is the third time she has heard this sentence!!
Dai Xijiu has never regretted why he wants to take over the power of the Dark Palace as much as he does now, it turns out that there are so many official affairs to be approved, Ye Xiu heard the pole, but she was confused, the name is complicated, the power is entrenched, and she is already busy sweating, and there are still a lot of people who don't understand while reading the brief history, non-stop, and the speed is still very worrying.
Thinking of this, Dai Xijiu was very helpless and raised the official document that was temporarily placed on the sofa: "Mr. Right Deacon, I have been eating and drinking for four consecutive days, and I am still reading the last report, what is Flort? Why did he die and only apply for a small area of land in the cemetery? Do you stack it up and sleep? The master wants to take revenge, isn't it too low?"
The right deacon was right: "It's Lord Reese's cat, Miss." ”
The pen in Daisy's hand folded: "What? You want to kill someone for a cat?"
"It's to destroy the other cat, miss. ”
Daisy Jiu almost fell off the sofa, no wonder Jane Shi didn't have this thing on the roster, and then heard the other party's serious voice: "Any task under Elvis's banner, as long as there are not many people to enable, is our duty." ”
Dai Xijiu felt that he was going crazy, and endured a smile that he felt like himself: "Right Deacon, I see that everyone is also very tired every day, no matter how big or small, it is easy to premature aging, I will give you two days off, how about it?"
The right deacon stood upright, and his voice became louder and firmer: "Absolutely not!
Daisy's eyebrows jumped slightly: "Is it over? It's me who wants to go out of business, it's me, it's me!"
The right deacon bowed: "I'm done, miss, I'll step aside." ”
This was followed by the sound of the door shutting down.
Dai Xijiu held his head in his hands, his mind was broken, he remembered the mountains of things in the study, he wailed, gritted his teeth, took the approval document and threw it into the air.
"Bastard Ye Xiuwen!
"Knock knock knock...... Knock Knock Knock ......"
Daisy Jiu paused, and looked up leisurely.
As soon as the door was opened, the right deacon stood at the door with a straight and slender back, and when he saw the approval on the ground, his face turned dark, and his tone was rigid: "Miss, your work attitude is very bad, which makes me very angry." And he is also disrespectful to Lord Ye, everyone will be very angry if they know about it. ”
The corners of Dai Xijiu's mouth twitched: "You came in to talk about this, it turns out that you still care about other things besides going out of business......
The right deacon seemed to have just remembered what he was going to do, nodded and shook his head: "I just received an order, and the young lady's brain can't carry out these things, and someone has someone to handle the official documents, so I'm here to move it." ”
Dai Xijiu's eyes lit up instantly, and he almost jumped up with joy: "Yes, yes, handsome deacon, this is humane, and only then can the organization care for the subordinates and love ......"
Then he thought of something leisurely, his face darkened, and he turned to look at the back of the right deacon who went upstairs to move the approval document: "Wait, say that my brain can't carry out ?......!!!"
The materials were moved out one after another, and the door was crackled shut.
Dai Xijiu sighed, feeling a pain in his spine, and just fell down the back of the sofa, rubbing his shoulders while sighing: "Finally relieved......"
"Knock knock knock...... Knock Knock Knock ......"
The ghost lingers.
Dai Xijiu's forehead was beating deeply, as soon as the door was opened, and his footsteps approached, Dai Xijiu couldn't bear it, and raised his head leisurely and threw the pillow in his hand directly: "If you don't go in and out, you'll die, right?"
Then I heard the sound of gasping and gasping for air.
The fluffy wool cushion fell down the face of the person in front of him, and gradually appeared slightly gray hair, and a wrinkled and deep-sighted face gradually appeared.
It's a cronie who serves left and right beside his father, Mr. Rhys.
Or the owner of that honorable cat.
Thinking of the fate of the other cat, Dai Xijiu's heart trembled, his knees weakened, and he laughed dryly: "Hands...... Hand slippery ......"
Rhys stood still in place for a while, the old man who was nearly eighty years old still had a straight back, and his body was also tall and beautiful, for a long time, he raised his hand and straightened the white hair that was disturbed by the pillow, and looked at Dai Xijiu, suddenly his eyes relaxed, and he smiled kindly and elegantly: "Miss Daisy's personality seems to be very lively." ”
The back of Dai Xijiu's head was numb, and he slowly stood up: "Usually...... Not so......"
Speaking of this, he smiled dryly: "Grandpa Reis, you sit ...... You sit ......"
Rees smiled heartily, and his voice was mellow: "Miss don't be so polite, you can sit down with the old slave." As he spoke, he took out a black gilded message from his back and handed it to Dai Xijiu: "It's the instructions of the head of the family, Milwaukee's business has changed recently, you should leave as soon as possible and go over to control the situation." ”
Dai Xijiu was a little stunned for a moment, such an errand had never had anything to do with her, and unconsciously raised his finger and pointed at himself: "Is grandpa determined to let me go over and control the situation?"
Rees looked at the child in front of him who couldn't react, and thought of Gillian who entered the hall to ask for instructions, smiled leisurely, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were bent into two lines, and his face was kind: "Of course, this is the meaning of the bright side, as for other developments, it still depends on you, Miss." ”
Dai Xijiu seemed to understand something, raised his hand to take it, and saw Rhys bowing slightly: "The old slave has a big deal to do recently, so I won't bother Miss." ”
Avenge your cat is the old man's big deal.
Dai Xijiu endured the low smile that came out of the corner of his mouth, escorted the old man out, turned around for a moment, leaned against the door panel, opened the news post, his fingers shook leisurely, the news post crackled, and his eyes were deep.
The six unpredictable words flashed through my mind: "Seize power in Milwaukee." ”
Ervis, the temple of the gods, the fireplace is at its peak, and the statue of Jesus on the wall is solemn and solemn, with a robe reaching to the ground, arms wide open, embracing the world, and a merciful and merciless gaze.
The person on the bed was wearing a dark white cotton nightgown, and his face was also half white, he was gently supported by his shoulders, his body was slightly undulating, his fingers were propped up on the mattress and lying on the side of the bed and gasping softly, his lips were pale and white with a little moist and watery, and his bangs were slightly wet on his forehead, and his face was delicate and especially a little misty and beautiful.
The person sitting on the European-style sofa in the corner of the room, his wrinkled fingers gently tapped the solid wood support, and his slightly old voice was low: "Spit up, then feed ......"
The attendant on the side of the bed looked a little unbearable: "Godfather, I've vomited so many times, ...... Let him rest for a while......"
The godfather's eyes were cold, and he glanced at the attendant leisurely: "Then feed until you don't vomit and then stop." ”
After speaking, he propped up the handrail, walked slowly closer, and looked down at Ye Xiuwen, who was almost collapsed: "I don't like such a delicate body, I have to eat something to recover as soon as possible......"
The attendant looked at the person in front of him who was really too weak, and he really didn't know what to do, even if he knew that he hadn't eaten because of stomach bleeding, and the person in front of him had barely recovered, and it was understandable for the godfather to do this, but he had been forced to eat since yesterday, and he vomited and vomited three meals a day, and the methods were too cruel and cold.
Thinking like this, he still couldn't disobey the order, and re-supported Ye Xiuwen's back soaked in cold sweat, let him lean against the back of the bed, took the porridge bowl next to him, and put his movements very slowly, spooning it over and approaching the pale white thin lips in front of him.
At this moment, Ye Xiuwen turned his head slightly, his thick eyelashes slowly lifted, and the shadow swept over, this sentence, the light voice was a little undoubted: "That's it...... There are also official documents to be instructed...... Can continue in the evening ......"
The godfather's face was cold for a moment, and then he smiled leisurely, looking very kind: "I haven't been * for a while, Ye Zunshou seems to have forgotten some rules, please ask me, you should have the attitude of asking for instructions." ”
Ye Xiu was as good as a stream, his slender fingers were distinct, and he still struggled to prop up the side of the bed, straightened up, lowered his eyebrows lightly, and bowed his head elegantly: "Please forgive me." ”
The person on the side of the bed had deep facial features, a few lines of deep grooves wrinkled between his eyebrows, and he smiled with a slight irony, very elegant, only to feel that he was heavy and coercive without any meanness, his fingers strangled Ye Xiuwen's jaw, his delicate pale face was lifted inch by inch, and his voice was cold: "Remember, your life is not your own." ”
The strength of his fingertips gradually tightened: "In this world, there shouldn't be your own rusty knife, it took me so much effort to polish you, and it's really not cost-effective to gain more than you lose for a woman......"
This sentence, the voice was cold: "You say, is it?"
Ye Xiu heard that his breathing was already a little laborious, his eyelashes slowly lifted, and at this moment, his eyes were misty and calm, and he smiled calmly and gently: "Put a woman who has no scheming and the best control to the position of the head of the family...... It will only benefit us in the future......"
The godfather's eyes were cold and suspicious, and he looked at Ye Xiuwen for a moment, and finally felt that he didn't notice anything, and then his fingers slowly loosened, re-encircled the cuffs, and took a few steps: "The head of the family has been ill in recent years, and it won't be too long for the owner to change hands......"
The fireplace was blazing, and the back of the godfather was clearly swaying, and it was a tall and majestic shore: "The second round of murder orders has been issued, it depends on who the two children are who lost Milwaukee." ”
