Song Yan and Ms. He were taken to a temporary rest area.
Song Yan didn't want to be alone, and neither did Ms. He. Today, she was closer to death than ever before.
Song Yan couldn't sleep and looked unwell. Ms. He was the same.
Ms. He had someone bring Song Yan a cup of hot milk.
Ms. He: "Have a glass of hot milk, it will make you feel better."
Song Yan nodded.
Ms. He noticed Song Yan's unease and fear. "This is your first mission, your first time handling something..." Murder?
Judging from Song Yan's decisiveness back then, she probably wasn't, but her timidity now proves that she is.
Song Yan wanted to talk, but if she didn't, she would get sleepy. But when she closed her eyes, the scenes from the daytime flashed before her. "I was an educated youth sent to the countryside. I took the college entrance exam and got into university. I really was a student; I wasn't part of the organization."
No matter how I check, this is my identity.
Secretary Fang said that with someone like me by your side, no one would be wary of me. He was absolutely right; Aunt Xia wasn't wary of me at all.
I'll be a student too, from now on.
"Thank you!" Ms. He understood, because there were spies constantly sending messages out. Song Yan was the most discreet bodyguard that Secretary Fang and his team had arranged for her.
Song Yan is intelligent and decisive. She had also heard that Song Yan was an excellent sniper. Song Yan was indeed very capable.
…
Shen Changchuan and Secretary Fang, who work downstairs, know that the upstairs ordered hot milk.
Shen Changchuan asked, "How is it now?"
Han knew what General Shen was asking.
Song Yan relaxed after she was safe, but it was precisely because she was completely relaxed that her poor condition became apparent.
Indeed, for a little girl who grew up in a peaceful environment, today's situation is quite...
The fact that she was able to complete the protection mission so well shows that she is already very outstanding.
Officer Han: "The soldiers guarding the door said they hadn't slept at all. Song Yan was very uneasy. The hot milk was ordered by Ms. He for Song Yan."
Secretary Fang and Shen Changchuan were waiting downstairs because they were worried about Song Yan.
Secretary Fang is a veteran of war; every soldier who kills for the first time goes through this kind of psychological ordeal. Now, it's Song Yan who is undergoing this ordeal. "I heard that Shen Qian's mission has also been completed exceptionally well, and it's nearing its end."
"Old Shen, apply to have her husband transferred back!" Secretary Fang spoke frankly, since everyone here was one of their own.
Shen Changchuan nodded. That's acceptable. But what do we do now? He rubbed his forehead.
Secretary Fang: "Arrange for several female comrades to watch over her 24 hours a day until Shen Qian returns."
…
The morning sun was already shining in. Song Yan hadn't slept all night, and he had also disturbed Ms. He's sleepless night.
"Aunt He, you should rest! I'm going back to my room." Song Yan looked very tired.
Ms. He: "Child, this can't go on. Take some sleeping pills and get some sleep!"
Song Yan shook her head. Aunt He had suggested she take sleeping pills before. How could she possibly take any medication at this time?
But Song Yan didn't refuse outright, afraid of worrying Ms. He. "I'll consider it. I'll be alone for a while. I'm sorry to have disturbed your rest. Aunt He, why don't you take some sedatives and get some sleep later?"
After watching Song Yan return to her room, Ms. He asked a staff member to relay a message to the leader. "Song Yan's current condition probably requires a psychologist. Arrange for one. I just don't know if there are any psychologists specializing in this in China."
Upon hearing Ms. He's words, Secretary Fang immediately sent someone to search, hoping that there were such doctors in China.
Ms. He's words gave them some inspiration. Even if they didn't have a psychologist, there were always doctors; they should get a doctor to take a look first.
Shen Changchuan's eyes were bloodshot.
"Why don't you get some sleep too?" Secretary Fang advised.
Shen Chang's wife, I've ruined her like this...
Actually, I've come to terms with it now. What difference does it make whether I recognize them or not? As long as I know they're doing well, that's enough for me.
"Don't be so pessimistic!" Secretary Fang said. "It's been over 20 years. Don't you want Shen Qian to call you 'Dad' once again?"
"Besides, the root of this problem lies with me. I've always felt that Song Yan is particularly suited for this field. It was also my suggestion to select Song Yan. Even now, I still hope that Song Yan will give up studying traditional Chinese medicine. It's just that I can't bring myself to say it..."
"I want to, I dream about it. But it's also possible that I only dream about it."
"Don't try to take it out on me. In the end, it was my decision." Shen Changchuan leaned back in his chair.
Han, the clerk: "Report! Commander, your personal physician has arrived."
Shen Changchuan nodded.
A doctor in a white coat approached. "Sir, Officer Han has already informed me of the female student's condition. I suggest giving her a sedative first, so she can sleep it off; her condition might improve."
Han, the staff member, was in a dilemma: "Ms. He has urged her to take the medicine more than once, but she refuses."
“Let’s go and talk to her. Your advice, as a doctor, should be more effective than anyone else’s.” Shen Changchuan said, standing up…
Inside Song Yan's room, Song Yan sat against the headboard. A woman in her thirties was in the room with her, speaking softly to Song Yan from time to time.
Song Yan knew that this was the person that Secretary Fang had arranged for her.
"Knock knock knock!" A knock sounded on the door, and the staff opened it.
"Student Song! The leader has come to see you," the staff member said.
Song Yan was about to get up when Secretary Fang quickly stopped her, saying, "We are all your elders, there's no need to be so polite. If you're not feeling well, just sit down."
