Lined up for baptism, and after a while, Yao Jingjing and Natasha arrived.

Natasha glanced at Yao Jingjing's solemn expression, and there was a trace of fear in her eyes, so she persuaded: "Madam, this water is very cold, if you can't stand it, we can just take some holy water." ”

Yao Jingjing was slightly embarrassed, she was a little scared, but so many people went into the water in turn, if she retreated, wouldn't she be looked down upon, and looking around, the people around her were just an Asian, if she retreated at this time, it would not be her face alone, but the face of the entire Asian. So, at this time, she had no choice but to bite the bullet.

"Well, no need, since you're here, you still have to do it, it's okay."

"Alright then, ma'am, I'll go down first, and you can see how I do it, and you can just follow along."

"Okay."

Natasha took the lead in getting down the ice water, Yao Jingjing looked at it seriously on the shore, and seeing Natasha's familiar appearance, the fear in Yao Jingjing's heart increased a little more, and she swallowed her saliva in a daze.

When Natasha finished her baptism, she walked ashore, put on her blanket, and said, "Madam, it's your turn, don't be afraid." ”

"Oh." Yao Jingjing took off the blanket on her body and handed it to Natasha, and suddenly felt a chill again, but she couldn't care about it, there were many people watching around, especially her, an Asian, who was going to be baptized, and she became the focus of people. Perhaps Russians generally think that Asians are thin and weak, and they don't have the courage to soak in ice water, and they are still Asian women. Once she retreats now, Yao Jingjing is sure that everyone around her will have to be coaxed.

Ignoring nothing else, Yao Jingjing strode towards the lake, with a look on her face as if she was rushing to the execution ground. When one of her feet stepped into the water, a cold and piercing sensation instantly surged up from the bottom of her foot. Yao Jingjing's body stiffened, paused slightly, but when she caught a glimpse of the eyes of the people around her who were like looking at a joke, she instantly had the courage, and without doing anything, she quickly walked into the water, imitating the movements of others, drawing a cross on her chest with her hands, and then completely invading the ice water with her whole body. She didn't dare to breathe, she didn't dare to pause, she did as fast as she could. After all, it was her first baptism, and maybe her gesture of drawing a cross was a little funny, but she couldn't care about it. When the baptism was finished, thunderous applause suddenly rang out all around.

Yao Jingjing was stunned, gasping for breath, and caught a glimpse of the people on the shore applauding and smiling at her, she knew that she had succeeded and maintained the dignity of Asians, and she felt particularly valuable at this moment.

After the baptism, two more bottles of holy water were taken, and Yao Jingjing and Natasha went home. On the way back to the manor, Yao Jingjing, who was sitting in the car, suddenly felt unwell, she had a fever, obviously because of the ice water just now, she caught a cold. But she didn't take it seriously, and a cold was not a serious illness, and when she returned to the manor, she would just take some cold medicine. Yao Jingjing thought it was quite simple, but this time she miscalculated.

Back at the manor, Yao Jingjing wanted to take a hot bath and sleep, but she didn't have much strength in her body, and her forehead was very hot, so she gave up. I didn't eat dinner, I just took cold medicine and went to bed.

On the other hand, when Sergei returned to the manor, Natasha went to report to him about today's work.

"Madame went to baptism today?"

"Yes, Madame is brave and went into the water alone, like a Russian."

Sergei's eyes flashed with admiration and a faint worry.

"How's the lady's health? Is there anything uncomfortable? ”

Natasha thought about it for a moment, shook her head, and said, "I didn't find anything out of the ordinary. ”

Sergei nodded and ordered: "Go out, you have worked hard today, go back to sleep." ”

"Okay." Facing Sergei again, Natasha lost her previous arrogance and didn't even dare to look into Sergei's eyes, and Sergei's whole person was much calmer, as if nothing had happened.

At noon the next day, the housekeeper Vera came to Yao Jingjing's room with lunch, she raised her hand and knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response from the house.

It's noon, haven't you gotten up yet? Vera was a little puzzled, Yao Jingjing usually likes to sleep lazy, but she usually gets up in the morning, why is she still sleeping today! Vera tentatively knocked on the door a few more times, listening intently for movement inside the room, but there was still no response.

Nothing will happen, right?

Vera tried to push the door down, but it didn't lock, the door opened, and Vera walked in. Catching a glimpse of Yao Jingjing lying on the bed still asleep, Vera put the food on the table. Just as she was about to leave, probably out of a woman's intuition, she turned around and paced to the bed, catching a glimpse of Yao Jingjing's face flushed, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from her forehead. Vera suddenly felt bad, and raised her hand to attach Yao Jingjing's forehead, and the hot temperature under her hand made Vera frown worriedly.

Vera quickly took out her mobile phone and called Sergei, who was still outdoors climbing the mountain with her friends.

"Hey."

"Hey, boss, Madame is sick and has a high fever."

Sergei on the other end of the phone was stunned and couldn't help but worry: "Is Madame very sick?" ”

"Madame has passed out, and she didn't hear me when I knocked on the door several times."

"Hurry up and get to the hospital, I'll go back."

"Okay."

Vera and her bodyguards took the sleepy Yao Jingjing to the nearest hospital, and when Sergei rushed over, Yao Jingjing was hanging a bottle in the emergency room, and the person had not yet woken up. Hearing that the doctor said that it was a severe cold, and he could be discharged from the hospital after hitting the hanging bottle, Sergei secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that with Yao Jingjing's Asian physique, he would inevitably catch a cold when he participated in the Epiphany, and sure enough.

At this moment, Sergei was sitting in front of the hospital bed, staring at Yao Jingjing, who was still asleep, his eyes were full of distress, he hadn't looked at her so closely for several months, and he still missed her a little. Sergei actually regretted it a little, regretting that he should have stopped Yao Jingjing from going to baptism two days ago. If he had stopped Yao Jingjing that night, Yao Jingjing would not have been lying here today.

Just when Sergei blamed himself, Yao Jingjing woke up slowly. She stared at the unfamiliar roof in front of her in ignorance, and inadvertently glanced at Sergei sitting next to her, slightly surprised.

"Sergey, why are you here?

Sergei was stunned, and when he saw Yao Jingjing awake, he said happily: "You woke up, how do you feel?" Sergei raised his hand and attached it to Yao Jingjing's forehead, which was still a little burnt, but it was still cooler than before.

"Where am I now?" Yao Jingjing gradually sobered up, and found that she was on a drip, and the environment in front of her was unfamiliar, knowing that she was not in the manor now.

"You're in the hospital emergency room right now, and you're in a coma with a high fever. However, the doctor said that it was a severe cold, and when we finished this bottle of drip, we could go home. ”
