Chapter 31 - : Her? Not her? (2/2)
”OK.” I smile reluctantly, ”I'm all right.”
”Well!” Jim nods, and his face is calm, ”Our people and Young's guys found you together. Now, tell me what was going on carefully. Don't miss any detail.”
I sigh, try my best to remember and repeat the situation last night to him slowly. He does not interrupt, just listening quietly. His face grows somber. I can not help whispering: ”Jim, I think this is a little strange.”
”Um…” He nods, ”What's your feeling?”
”I don't know. I can't remember. I am having a terrible headache.” I smile bitterly, ”But these men obviously followed us there and then sneak attacked us. Besides, one of them is good at fighting. He is at least as good as me. I don't think these people are likely from United States.” Then I carefully describe the looks and costumes of the men who attacked us as much as I could. When I'm talking about the guy who fought me for several rounds, I particularly explained that the guy seems to be good at capturing.
In the eyes of Jim, there is a glimpse of a shining light. Then he looks at me: ”5, you just take care of yourself. Juan lets me tell you that he will deal with this matter.”
He has already stood up and about to leave, then suddenly turns around, looks at me, and in a strange tone he says: ”Juan feels strange that how could you be with Vivi Young at night?”
”Coincidence.” I whisper, ”I met her when I came out.”
Jim looks at me and says: ”Well, anyway, it was lucky to have you to save her life. I will find out about this matter. You just rest at ease, and if you need anything, tell the nurse, I have paid a high price to let her take good care of you.”
After that, he seems ready to go. I can't help calling: ”Jim…”
”What?”
”I…” I think a while and say with great care, ”I heard Miss Young said that she suspects our inner people… She said that in the organization behind Juan, it seems that some people are against this business.”
”You don't have to think about it.” Jim stops me, ”These are not the questions you should consider now.”
Leaving a ”Good rest”, Jim looks a little pale and hurries away.
In fact, I have a question in my mind that I want to ask him about Vivi Young. How is she now? Is She badly hurt or something? But I still do not ask finally.
Not long after, I hear the door of the ward is made a sound and a woman pushes it in. I think it is the nurse coming in, but when I look at her carefully, I find it is Vivi Young!
Her face is covered with adhesive tapes, and she wears a long windy dress.
”Jim left.” She comes into the room and looks at me and smiles, ”I watch his car leave before I come in.”
I have some doubts.
”Chen Yang, I come to say goodbye to you.” She looks at me with a faint smile on her face, ”I will go back to the United States tomorrow.”
I frown: ”You… Why avoid Jim? Besides, you will leave tomorrow? That soon?”
She seems to be smiling, her tone is with a calm and indifferent smell: ”Things here have been over! Our business has been temporarily suspended by my family. When they knew that I was almost assassinated, my family was very angry and put a lot of pressure on Juan Yeh. Considering the instability in the organization behind Juan, my family decides to freeze our cooperation plan for the time being… Your organization is unstable now. Under such circumstances, my family suspects that our interests can hardly be guaranteed in this cooperation.”
She seems to finish the words in a cool tone, and then her bright eyes are looking at me with a slight smile.
Suddenly I feel uncomfortable, looking at her smiling in front of me, an idea is flashing through my mind. I'm blurting out: ”Isn't it exactly what you want?”
She does not speak, staring into my eyes for a moment, then slowly walking up to me, saying with smile: ”You are tired. These are not the things you should worry about. Chen Yang, you shouldn't be in this circle. Remember what I said? You are actually very kind, and in this circle, your heart will become your mortal wound at any time.”
Then she suddenly smiles softly: ”I'm leaving. I'm afraid we won't meet again.”
After that, before I can react, she bends down suddenly, kisses me gently on the cheek, and then leaves lightly.
I am completely stunned. My mind is at a loss. I still have her lip gloss on my cheek, and the faint fragrance seems to be still reverberating
I can only hear my heartbeating at the moment.
Yes, this kiss has shocked me, but what I'm more shocked is her words.
She's leaving? She's leaving! She's back to her family!
The cooperation has been suspended.
Is this result just matching her will?
Even since we were attacked, she has been always calm, occasionally with a trace of panic on her face. But her eyes were still faint and cold, always like a cold moon…. Was it because of her brilliant braveness or just because she was controlling everything?
Such a women…
When the nurse walks into the ward, I suddenly struggle to try to sit up, grit my teeth and say: ”Give the mobile phone, quick!”
”You can't move yet!” She comes to stop me from getting up. I push her hand aside and cry out, ”I said give me the phone! Be quick!”
Her face is a little helpless and unhappy, but her good professional quality still keeps her in control. She turns around, takes out a mobile phone from her pocket and hands it to me:L ”This is my phone. You can use it at the moment. But you can't get up! This is doctor's order. Your ankle hurts and you can't walk!”
I nod and say: ”Thank you!” But when I have dialed a few numbers, my movement suddenly stops.
Do I really have to call Juan?
What do I say? I suspect that this assassination was deliberately planed by Vivi Young and others, in order to break the cooperation?
Do I have any proof?
Involuntarily, my mind remembers her smiling face, as well as in my ear whispers gently, and the face was showing a sincere smile of joyness while she was listening my jokes…
Her?
Not her?
I hold the phone for at least a minute, but I still don't decide whether to call or not.
Suddenly a towel is handed over. She wipes my cheek with a strange tone.
”There's a lip print on your face…”
