Be in low spirits

"Deal." Li Li dragged Director Guo to the door, knocked him unconscious, fired a shot into the air, and then drove away.

There were many people queuing in front of the Cheung Kong Group. Li Li went straight to the front desk and said, "I'm looking for Shu Bole." Without further ado, he jumped over the gate and pressed the elevator button. The front desk staff quickly asked the security guard to stop him, but he failed. So they used the intercom to talk to the people upstairs.

Li Li wanted to rush directly to her office, but the company's security guards kept stopping him. He had no choice but to take out his police ID and threatened, "Who dares to stop me?"

The security guard had no choice but to let him go. Shu Bole's secretary walked up to him and said, "Officer, if you have anything to ask, you can ask me first. Our CEO Shu is in a meeting right now. You're... this is inappropriate."

"Which conference room?"

The secretary stood in front of him and stopped him: "Uh, no, officer, please go to the reception room first, I will talk to Mr. Shu, don't get excited yet."

"I! Now! Immediately! Soon! I want to see her in person! Tell me, which conference room?" Li Li didn't want to delay even a minute.

The secretary was immediately intimidated by him and said the room number "Conference Room 3110."

Li Li pushed the door open and walked in. Everyone in the conference room looked at each other in bewilderment. The secretary stood behind him and explained in a low voice: "Boss Shu, this police officer said he must see you now. We can't stop him, so..."

Shuber thought for a while and said to the people at the conference table, "Let's end the meeting here and adjourn it."

Li Li sat on the stool and went straight to the point: "I have to take you to see your brother now. I don't care about your family grudges. As long as I can get the hostage in his hand, my mission will be accomplished." As he said that, he handcuffed her hands with his own and dragged her out, remaining indifferent to what she shouted.

When they arrived at the abandoned chemical plant, he threw the man in front of him, untied his handcuffs, and said, "Can you let him go now?"

Shu Botian finally saw his sister again. He took off his mask, revealing his ruined face. He rocked his chair and said, "Sister, your brother didn't die. Do you think this is God's will?"

Li Li didn't want to listen to his nonsense and shouted, "Let him go first."

"Don't worry, I will let it go, but wait."

Shu Bole raised his head and looked at his disfigured brother, pointed at him and said, "Old Qin didn't kill you?"

"I'm back, I want to take back what belongs to me. The company is mine, the money is mine, and you are mine too!"

"Bullshit! You're a pervert and you still want to run the company? You'll be a nuisance if I keep you here!"

"Shut up, shut up!"

He pointed the gun at his sister and asked with tears in his eyes: "I'll ask you one last time, why are you killing me?"

"How dare you ask? Your family doesn't mind you for taking drugs, contracting diseases, and having affairs, but you shouldn't have set your sights on me. If I don't kill you, who else will I kill?"

Shu Botian's eyes gradually became fierce, and the hand holding the gun began to tremble. After a few minutes of stunned, he began to laugh, and then shed tears: "Sister, you know I have always liked you, I love you, how could you find someone to kill me? How could you do this..."

Shu Bole stood up and patted his pants, still with a look of disgust on his face: "You are sick! Killing you is to get rid of harm to the people!"

"Shut up, shut up." Shu Botian fired a shot in anger. Li Li quickly turned Shu Bole around and blocked the shot himself.

Li Li didn't know how long he had slept, but he could feel Zhixi's voice close at hand. He struggled to get up, but it was dark in front of him. He didn't know where he was, and tried to shout a few words, but it was no use.

Kong Zhixi saw the sweat on his forehead and pressed the call button on the bedside. She was anxious to go out and call for help. The moment she stood up, her hand was suddenly grabbed. She tentatively took off his ventilator and put her ear close to his lips, trying to hear clearly what he said: "Zhixi, Zhixi..."

When she saw the nurse coming in, she quickly said, "He seemed to be suffocating. Come and have a look." The nurse put the ventilator back on him and told her to leave quickly.

She stood in the corridor and called Li Li's mother, and they also started rushing to the hospital.

At the door of the emergency room, she sent a message to Uncle Jiang and Uncle Qi, but they only replied with one "OK".

Several people stood at the door waiting for several hours. Finally, the doctor came out and said, "If all goes well, he will wake up in the next two days." Several people finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Li's mother said a little embarrassedly: "Xixi, you see Li Li may wake up at any time, doesn't he need someone to watch over him? Although his father and I can also watch over him, I just want to have more people to take turns, what do you think?"

"It's okay, I can change too. You two elders go back and have a rest first, I'll stay here and call you when I have any news." She didn't care, not to mention that as a wife she also had this responsibility.

After entering the ward, Li Li's ventilator was taken off and a bottle was tied to his hand. Kong Zhixi thought about it and thought that he might have been shouting for her, not suffocation. She stayed aside and played with her mobile phone, thinking that she could eat the meal her father cooked in the evening.

The pain in her chest seemed to ease. She thought, it was better to go for a checkup since she was just sitting here. She fiddled with her phone for a while and registered for an appointment. Seeing that he didn't respond, she said guiltily, "I'll go check my wound and come back to see you later." She stood up to leave, but he grabbed her hand again. She was stunned. What kind of magic skill was this? She sat down again, and the strength in her hand was obviously relieved. After pulling her hand away, she stood up again, and her hand was grabbed again. She tried it several times and it was the same.

"So magical? Could it be that you've already woken up and are pretending to be asleep because you don't want to face reality, Captain Li?" She leaned close to his ear and whispered.

There was no response, so she had to cancel the registration and stayed by the bed.

Li Li woke up suddenly, turned his head and saw Kong Zhixi sleeping next to him. He raised his hand to touch her head, but was afraid of waking her up, so he just looked at her. As long as he could see her, nothing else mattered. He was afraid that this was a dream and she would disappear if he moved.

Her hair was still the same as he remembered, black and soft, with a faint floral scent, the smell he always remembered. He was a little tired, his mouth was a little dry, and he had an IV in his hand. He couldn't speak, and didn't want to speak. He just looked at Kong Zhixi who was lying beside him.

She was startled awake when the nurse came in. Seeing that it was the nurse, she covered her chest and sighed. She heard the nurse say, "Hey, you're awake. Didn't the family member notice it?"

Kong Zhixi looked up and found that he was awake. She stood up and said, "Oh, you're awake? Great, I'll call my parents." She was about to go out to make a call, but Li Li held her back and said with all his strength, "Don't go."

The nurse looked at the IV bottle, checked the instruments around her, and said, "I'll ask the attending physician to come over and take a look. You stay here and watch." She patted Kong Zhixi on the shoulder and left.

She had no choice but to sit down and asked, "Is there any other pain?"

Li Li didn't say anything, just looked at her. He thought about her for too long, so long that he thought he would never see her again. Seeing that there were no people around, Kong Zhixi quietly approached him and asked, "Did you put the USB drive in Cheng Xi's tombstone?"

He nodded, and Kong Zhixi breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing his peeling lips, she asked again, "Would you like some water?" He blinked, and she poured some from the kettle into a plate, wet a cotton swab and applied it to his lips.

The doctor came to check and asked Kong Zhixi to go to his office. She was unsure whether there would be any sequelae or lifelong disability. After Li Li's parents came, she went to the doctor's office. The doctor said: "He will need a long time to rehabilitate after this injury, about half a year, but there are still some bullet fragments in his body, which is very easy to get infected, and there is no rule out rejection reaction, so he needs to be kept in mind at all times."

She didn't know how to tell Li Li's parents, so she could only sit on a stool in the hospital, thinking about talking to her father. As a result, she received a call from Li Li's mother. She adjusted her mood and answered the phone: "Mom, what's wrong?"

"Where are you? Li Li is looking for you." Although she said this while crying, she couldn't hide the joy on the other end of the phone.
