Emery

Chapter 17

"The doctor said that the Governor is overworked and physically and mentally exhausted, as long as he rests for a while, he will be fine."

In the office, Natasha, who had just sent the doctor away, walked in, and felt a little helpless when she saw the impatient men in the room.

Sherlock wiped the corners of his eyes again with his little handkerchief, and muttered, "Why doesn't the Governor take care of his body so much?

It should be said that he insisted on attending so many banquets with the president, really. "

"The governor has such a personality, there is no way." Cliff also replied in a low voice.

Gao Xiu folded his hands on Erlang's legs, obviously the one with the most relaxed expression in the room, "It's understandable to be overworked.

It's a bit of a rush to get to the next scene, but it's exhausting, Ross, isn't it just you who knows what's going on? "

"Shut up, no one will treat you as dumb if you don't speak." Rose glanced at Gao Xiu displeased.

Gao Xiu raised his eyebrows and stopped talking, but the expression on his face showed that he was happier now than before.

"Then I'll take care of the Governor first. If he wakes up, Major General, I will notify you as soon as possible." Natasha said meaningfully.

He bowed to Ross and Gao Xiu, turned and left the office.

Gao Xiu raised his head, looked at Rose with a wry smile on his face, and said with a smile, "Have you figured out how to ask Jamil to forgive you?

It's moving back, but it's really late to wake up. "

When this question was raised, both Sherlock and Cliff looked at Rose expectantly, obviously curious about his answer.

Gao Xiu continued to smile, "Just taking the initiative to offer a hug is not enough, Jamil is not the kind of woman who will be dizzy when you hug him

. '

"Gao Xiu, if you really have nothing to do, go back to your Verona." Rose seemed really angry.

Gao Xiu was still not afraid of him at all, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened, "Until you catch up with Jamil, I'll stay here for now.

Well here, if you fight again, someone will pull you away. "

"..." Sherlock couldn't help laughing, and was immediately enveloped by Rose's cold eyes.

"Sherlock, didn't Jamil's self-designed street park just started? What are you still doing here? Hurry up and oversee the construction! And you

, Cliff, isn't the first military parade after my mentor became president?You still don't train soldiers! "

Under Rose's roar, Sherlock and Cliff fled in haste one after another, and soon there was only Ross with an angry face left in the office, and the still leisurely

Gao Xiu.

Rose's set, of course, is more than enough to eat and eat Sherlock, but it is really not worth mentioning in front of Gao Xiu, Gao Xiu almost treats them as

Pediatrics.

Ross stared at Gao Xiu for a while, then snorted coldly and looked away, he seemed hesitant to speak, Gao Xiu thought this guy would still be thinking about it

Let him go.

After hesitating for a long while, Rose said in a bad tone, "Hey, you playboy is the best at coaxing people, tell me what to say to Jamil."

Hearing this, Gao Xiu rolled his eyes, squinted at him and asked, "Is this your attitude of asking for help?"

"Gao Xiu? Nakroda, don't push yourself!"

"You didn't even give me an inch, how can I have a chance to gain an inch?"

"Are you going to tell me or not?"

"I'll tell you if you ask me."

Ross narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was an unusually dangerous aura in his expression, but Gao Xiu was his best friend after all, he couldn't use violent

Forced Gao Xiu.

"Forget it." Throwing down these words coldly, Rose turned his head and stopped looking at Gao Xiu.

Gao Xiu on the sofa sighed softly. This time, he finally suppressed the sly smile on his face, but looked at Rose seriously and said, "Ross,

Is that the only level of compromise for you? "

Rose froze for a moment, then turned to look at him inexplicably.

"Do you think that you have made a big concession by not beating me?" Gao Xiu put down his crossed legs and changed to a more serious one.

sitting posture.

When he said this, he looked straight at Rose, without a smile on his lips. Although he didn't look very serious, at least he was serious.

Rose knew that he was going to talk to him about something serious, so he turned his head and looked at him seriously, "That's right."

He really thinks so, if Gao Xiu didn't say that sentence just now, but someone else who has nothing to do with him, maybe that person would have been

He flew away.

There are really few people in this world who dare to challenge Ross Campbell's patience.

Gao Xiu sighed and shook his head, he now feels that the saddest thing about a man is not his lack of courage, but his lack of emotional intelligence, just like the one in front of him

.

"Ross, it's not that you think that you have made concessions, and I will be grateful to you. In fact, your so-called concessions are not at all in my eyes.

It is worth mentioning that it is a kind of arrogance and selfishness on the contrary, which will only make people feel more angry. "

What Gao Xiu said was very serious, Ross opened his eyes slightly in surprise.

"Ross, in many cases, what we have to do is not just for the sake of the other party, but to understand where the bottom line of the other party's acceptance is. Especially in my

When we want to compromise or make concessions to each other, we must do it according to the other party's wishes, otherwise everything will be in vain.i want this

No one in the world knows Jamil better than you, and you should know what kind of apology he wants. "

Ross frowned slightly, he seemed to understand a little bit what Gao Xiu said, but also seemed a little bit incomprehensible.

What kind of apology did Jamil want, did he really know?

"So you mean, let me follow him?" After a long while, Rose responded with an ugly face, with black lines all over his forehead.

Gao Xiu nodded, the serious expression on his face suddenly disappeared, he put on a playful grimace, and said in a low voice: "Actually, you usually

It's okay to let him bully him more, as long as you can bully him hard in bed, wouldn't it be fine? "

What Gao Xiu said was extremely ambiguous, and his face was full of ridicule. Rose stared at him speechlessly, thinking that this guy really is not serious.

.

However, following Jamil is really not an easy thing. I always feel that when I am in front of that guy, my heart will be angry when I hear his sarcastic words.

It will soar up, and you can't control yourself at all.

"Speaking of which, you should have done too much to him before and let him drive you away in a rage, Ross, what did you do?"

Gao Xiu seemed to be excited, sat up straight and looked at Ross gossipingly, hoping to hear some interesting news from him.

Ross was taken aback for a moment, is it too much?Could it mean the time on the train?However, it was Jamil himself who seduced him at the time, so it couldn't be done at all.

Blame him?

Well, he admitted that that kind of behavior was indeed insulting, but he never thought that Jamil would really help him with his mouth!he thought jamil

would jump up angrily and beat him up.

Rose held his head with a headache. He really thought he knew Jamil very well before, but it seemed that after five years of separation, they didn't know each other.

Get to know each other better.

"Ross?" Seeing Rose's remorseful expression, Gao Xiu couldn't help calling him again expectantly.

Rose raised his head, saw his face getting more angry, and growled, "Shut up!"

This gloating guy, what evil did he fall into in the first place to become good friends with him?

"Major General, the governor is awake." At this moment, Natasha appeared at the door very timely.

Rose's head hurts even more, already awake?So fast?He hasn't figured it out yet!

"Jamil is awake? Great, I'll go and see him." Gao Xiu stood up excitedly.

It's a pity that before he could take a step, Ross kicked him back onto the sofa from behind. Ross looked at him condescendingly and said unkindly

: "Just stay here for me."

After finishing speaking, he left the office with a blank face, walked to the door of the room where Jamil was resting, and whispered to Natasha: "You wait here first, there are

I will call you if you need anything. "

"Okay." Natasha smiled slightly, her gentle smile was full of encouragement.

Ross curled his lips and walked into the room with an awkward expression.

Jamil rested in the same room that Ross let him live in when he first captured him. After so many years, the furnishings in the room have not changed at all.

Change, Rose looked at the familiar everything, couldn't help but sighed softly.

On the bed, Jamil closed his eyes quietly, with an ice pack on his head, his cheeks were slightly flushed due to the fever, and he looked weak.

Not at all like the usual strong and persistent Jamil.

Rose walked to the window, sat down gently, and after waiting for a while, Jamil opened his eyes.

The moment those sea-blue eyes were fully opened, Rose felt his heart beat uncontrollably.

He tensed up all of a sudden, and even the facial nerves showed a cold feeling because of the tension. The room was extremely quiet, only the wind blowing

The window screen made a slight noise.

Jamil obviously didn't want to see him, and turned his eyes away after staying on him for a while, and after a while, he said softly, "Ross, what do you do?"

What. "

He already knew that he was not dreaming. Natasha had told him just now that Major General Ross was back.

But even if he knew that the Rose in front of him was not a dream, he was still a little confused about whether it was the Rose before he fainted. The Rose who surrounded him with tight hugs

Si, he couldn't overlap with the person in front of him.

Such an indifferent question made Ross clenched his fist, and he let it go after a long time. He said lightly: "You asked me before, if this is not a game, is it true?"

What, I think I know the answer now. "

Jamil's eyes turned back, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and there seemed to be a flash of surprise in his eyes looking at Rose.

"So you're back?"

"That's right."

"Then what are you going to do now?" Without asking Ross what the answer was, Jamil just looked at him blankly, the anger between the two

The atmosphere is still weird.

Ross sighed, and took Jamil's hand outside the quilt, "Jamil, since we are destined to be entangled with each other, then don't break it again.

Grind each other. "

Jamil smiled slightly, "Yes, but I want to see your sincerity."

Ross obviously didn't expect Jamil to agree so easily, he opened his eyes slightly and looked at Jamil in surprise.

This guy, couldn't he have a fever that burned his head?Such a straightforward answer is not like him.

But Jamil quickly made it clear to Ross that he wasn't burned out.

A trace of provocation gradually appeared in his eyes looking at Rose, and he said playfully: "In the next half month, no matter what I do to you, you will

If I can bear it, I agree with your sincerity. "

A vein popped up on Rose's forehead, and the corner of his mouth twitched a few times. After seeing that Jamil was not joking, he almost instinctively wanted to refuse.

He didn't think Jamil would let him go easily. Although he couldn't think of anything that would scare him for the time being, the feeling that he was about to be fished

It's really not good.

Gao Xiu's words came to mind at this moment, Ross thought for a while, and finally decided to agree to Jamil's request.

Outside the door of the room, the two eavesdropping people showed strange smiles at the same time after hearing that Rose agreed to Jamil's request.

And much to Rose's surprise, Jamil didn't use any evil methods to punish him.

In addition to serving tea and delivering medicine to take care of the sick Jamil, what Rose has to do is to replace Jamil in handling Aimel's public affairs.

If Jamil made any special request, it is that Jamil asked Ross to do a lot of things to participate in the citizens.

For example, go to the fields to harvest food with everyone, personally participate in the renovation of churches and the construction of street parks, and distribute food to citizens

The subsidy is delivered to every household in person.

After more than a week like this, everyone in the central square immediately started discussing lively.

"Unexpectedly, Major General Ross is still alive and has returned to Emery!"

"Yeah, thanks to him, Aymelai's public administration was not interrupted when Jamil fell ill."

"Hey, have you noticed that Major General Ross is different from before? He has become very friendly. Last time he even handed over the subsidy

Send it to my house. "

"Really, me too, I almost fainted when I saw him!"

"And during the Harvest Festival, he personally came to harvest the grain with everyone. He looks so handsome when he cuts the rice with a sickle!"

"Although the former Major General Ross was also very good, but now it feels better to be closer. It's great."

"Now he will not allow his soldiers to bully the citizens. Last time a lieutenant's horse ran into someone in the square, it seems that he was severely punished by him when he went back.

Woolen cloth! "

"Yeah, I used to think that only Jamil could do this. This time Major General Ross's transformation really surprised me."

"It's our luck to have two such good governors in Emerai!"

The eager discussions kept coming, and in the open-air coffee shop on the corner, Jamil, who was wearing casual clothes and a hat, was listening eagerly.

Opposite him, Rose, who had also disguised himself, felt uncomfortable. You know, he did those things unwillingly!

"Is the feeling of being praised so embarrassing for you?" Jamil raised his eyes and looked at Ross playfully, while taking his coffee leisurely.

Ross snorted through his nose, and judging by his expression, he was really embarrassed, "I'm about to change from an iron-blooded major general to a hot-blooded major general by you.

'

"Is not it good?"

"It's not bad, but it's not good either." He's used to being feared, he's used to the look on his face when someone mentions Ross Campbell.

Frightened look.

Being praised and loved by the citizens like this is really not in line with his usual style of conduct.

Jamil took a sip of coffee, and he seemed to be in good spirits after healed up. Recently, under Rose's thoughtful care, his cheeks also had a tinge of blush

Run, not as sickly pale as before.

But he never talked with Rose about the relationship between them. The current way of getting along is as if they are old friends who have known each other for many years, and they are working together for the future.

Governance of Emerai is just a matter of effort.

"You used to always ask me, why should I protect the weak who can't survive on their own? In a place like the battlefield, it is obviously difficult to protect yourself

. '

Suddenly mentioning the past, Rose was a little surprised, and picked up his own cup of coffee, "Ah, but you never gave me the answer."

"Ross, that's because we all want to survive. At that time, I never thought that I could survive the battlefield alone, so I always

It's about helping them as much as I can, so that someday in the future, maybe when I can't live on my own, they can help me too. "

For the first time, Jamil said the answer in his heart. He was unwilling to tell Ross before because he knew that such an answer would only make Ross feel uncomfortable.

crumbs.

And it turns out that he guessed right.

After hearing what he said, Ross snorted coldly, and raised the corners of his mouth sarcastically, "But Jamil, they never helped you, even letting you

I am the one who survived. "

"Yes, Rose, you are really strong, and you still firmly believe that you can survive alone in such a harsh environment, but you don't know,

It is because of you that I want to protect them even more. "

Jamil's sea-blue eyes stared straight at Rose, and the bright light and shadow flickering there made Rose frowned suspiciously.

Because of him, Jamil wants to protect those people more?What does it mean?

Jamil took another sip of coffee, and the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to deepen, "At that time, I thought, if I am like others, I can't do anything.

If you can't protect anything, then maybe you don't care about me so much, Ross, your bully behavior makes me want to fight you, and the most straightforward

The way to connect is to protect the person you want to bully. "

Rose's eyes widened in surprise, but soon he raised the corners of his mouth proudly. Can he understand Jamil's words as disguised?

confession?

"So, actually, you've been treating me since then..."

"I hated you back then."

"..."

Seeming to know what Ross wanted to say, Jamil easily blocked his mouth, Ross curled his lips unhappily, and drank the coffee in the cup in one go

.

Jamil invited the waiter to refill Ross's cup of coffee, and then said with emotion: "But it is undeniable that even though I hate you, I still love you."

care about you.Maybe you haven't realized that every time I snatch your bread, you are actually not at the end of your rope. "

This sentence stunned Rose for a second, and the hand holding the coffee cup paused. Now that he thought about it carefully, he realized that the fact was just like Jamil's.

said.

Because food was really scarce at that time, he didn't wait for the food to run out before going out for food every time, he would try to store some food for himself

.

Every time Jamil appeared in front of him and competed with him for food, he was looking for food reserves.

And every time he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and he would faint from hunger if he couldn't find food, Jamil would never block his way and grab his food.

Ross stared his eyes like brass bells in the memory, he clenched his fists, grabbed Jamil's lapel, and roared furiously: "So you are all a story

meaning?Will you let me go when I have no food? "

The sudden rage on his body didn't frighten Jamil. Jamil just put down the coffee cup in his hand, lest the cup be broken by Rose's impulsiveness.

overturned.

There was a trace of complexity in the sea-blue eyes, Jamil looked at Ross with a blank face, and said calmly: "Ross, no one can be in that kind of place.

Survive only by yourself, even if it is you, if we must deliberately make things difficult for you, you can only die there. "

"Why!" Rose's hand gripped even tighter, and the way he roared scared the townspeople and the waiters in the coffee shop sitting on the tables around him.

Jamil was caught by him and had difficulty breathing, he frowned slightly, but looked at Rose's expression without any change, "Because I'm not just

Living alone, everyone is weak, but as long as they find something to eat, they will let me fill my stomach first, I know that I am so hungry that I am about to faint

What does it feel like, so at that time, I won't bother you. "

Rose thinks he's going to blow up, and being reminded of something he's always been proud of isn't really his strength at all, that kind of utter failure

It made him feel very angry.

Jamil's face had already started to turn red, and Rose looked at him, even having the illusion that he could just strangle him to death.

"Sir, you, can you let go first, your friend is almost out of breath." The waiter boldly came over, persuading him with cold sweat

with Ross.

Rose let go of his hand all of a sudden, Jamil frowned and coughed a few times, and didn't react much to his violence.

Rose clenched his fists tightly, and the anger on his face didn't fade away. He didn't know why Jamil told him this, was it to blow his self-esteem?

?Because he trampled on Jamil's self-esteem before, is he going to take revenge on himself?

It took Jamil a while to catch his breath, and he waved to the nearby people who were watching them nervously, signaling that they were all right.

After everyone turned their eyes away, he looked at Rose and said, "Ross, I just want you to understand that the Amele battlefield at that time was actually

We're all trying to stay alive, and we're not just living on our own. "

Rose fell silent. He had never thought about these problems before. He always thought that in the chaotic flames of war, he relied on himself to solve the problem.

Fist and will to survive.

But now after listening to Jamil's words, he suddenly realized that he should actually be thankful that Jamil has never been as domineering as he is, and he will never be as domineering as him.

He did whatever he could to survive.
