Inside the detention center.
I was carried into the square iron window by a female nurse specially hired by the institute.
The two men forcefully lifted up my long skirt and changed me into an adult diaper, cursing at me and calling me a murderer.
The actions were rough and fierce.
I suppressed my humiliation and shed tears, clutching the armrests of the recliner tightly with both hands, reassuring myself that Zhou Bingchen would rescue me soon and the truth would be revealed.
After watching the two caregivers leave, I lay in the empty cell that looked like a prison, staring at the ceiling numbly as I spent my first night alone after becoming disabled.
I originally thought that I would have to stay here for at least 24 hours before I could be released on bail.
But just after midnight, I saw Zhou Bingchen, who was coming in the night wind, looking exhausted.
After not seeing him for only four hours, he looked as if he hadn't seen him for four years. His face was haggard, as if he had aged several years in such a short time, and there was a dark spot under his eyes.
I don't know what he did to let me go so quickly.
As soon as the iron gate opened, he staggered in and hugged me again.
"We are willing to suffer!"
He patted my back gently, his voice choked and hoarse.
That one sentence shattered my heart, which I thought was strong, and tears burst out again. I curled up in his arms and cried uncontrollably.
I myself can hardly imagine how I am supposed to survive here till dawn with my legs and feet unable to move, let alone him?
During the few hours I was detained, I don't know how many methods he used and how many people he found to rescue me from here.
My heart broke when I thought of him begging someone to save me outside.
When Zhou Bingchen carried me back to the villa, I had already fallen asleep in his arms due to exhaustion.
When I opened my eyes again, I found that Zhou Binchen seemed to have not slept all night.
He just sat quietly holding me on the bed all night long, and watched me in the dark all night long.
It was as if he was afraid that if he put me down, he would wake me up.
"Why don't you go to bed? Who will take care of me if you break down?"
I put my arms around his strong back and lifted myself up little by little. I rubbed the stubble on his chin with my lips and restlessly touched his abdominal muscles to make him laugh.
Sure enough, the man who couldn't help laughing suddenly, grabbed my hand and put it around his neck, then carried me into the bathroom.
The dawn arrived as promised.
Drive away the darkness and let beautiful things surround it.
He and I were like young people experiencing love for the first time, immersed in it.
Several times, I wanted to tell him that I had promised to take the children to the amusement park this weekend, but when I saw his red eyes and tears, I couldn't bear to disturb him.
Perhaps this short separation frightened him.
He hugged me, wishing he could embed me completely into his body.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, I don’t know if it was because the visual impact during the day was too strong, but I leaned on his shoulder and tears fell for no reason.
His body froze, he hunched over and slowly stood up straight, his eyes filled with disbelief and surprise when he looked at me...
In the hospital.
Dozens of doctors gathered in the conference room for treatment.
A senior expert who had just been invited from the north looked at my diagnosis, and his glasses fell off his nose. When he looked at me in Zhou Binchen's arms, his eyes were full of astonishment, and he spoke sarcastically without caring about so many people in the venue.
"You young people are too much of a fool. Why don't you stop even if it's already like this? You guys are normal, but you women are like this, what's the point?"
Of course, everyone in the meeting room knew Zhou Binchen's position as a director of the hospital, and no one dared to say a word.
I lowered my head, blushed, and dared not look at anyone.
Zhou Bingchen shook my hand, his face annoyed for a moment, and he coughed lightly, "I called you here to discuss the possibility of surgery, not to bring up this."
After all, when I was just brought back from northern Myanmar, he also invited this old expert who rarely goes out to come and check the possibility of surgery.
At that time, his words "there is no need for surgery" directly sentenced my legs to death.
Now the old expert was asked about this again, and the astonishment on his face instantly turned into embarrassment, "Your work is truly a miracle!"
He flipped through my re-examination report and said seriously again, "Since the patient's consciousness is gradually recovering, I think it's still possible to give it a try, but there's no guarantee. There's only a 50% chance of regaining sensation in the legs. As for standing up, it will probably take a long time..."
I listened to the old expert's words and excitedly shook Zhou Bingchen's hand in ecstasy.
Zhou Bingchen beside me also subconsciously held my waist tightly, and his eyes turned red when his eyes met mine.
After the meeting, the police called and asked Zhou Binchen to take me there immediately.
The hospital entrance is always crowded. Today, when we heard that an old expert was coming to see patients, even more people came.
Zhou Binchen was anxious to take me to the police station, so he gave up on taking the special passage and carried me directly through the dense crowd in the outpatient building, attracting countless people's attention and discussions.
The young nurses who knew the news gathered together and gossiped about the shocking news they had just heard, with each expression on their face more exciting than the other.
I buried my head in Zhou Binchen's chest and could clearly feel the gazes of the people around me. I felt so embarrassed.
After all, the onlookers don’t know that I am disabled.
A man with such outstanding looks and temperament is eye-catching enough, and when he walks around the city holding a woman, how can he not attract a lot of attention?
Zhou Binchen took me past the group of nurses. I glanced at a young man standing next to the nurses, who was staring at me intently.
My gaze paused on him for inexplicable reasons, and finally fell on Jiang Xi and Lawyer Zhang who were waiting for me at the door. I happily urged Zhou Bingchen to speed up and meet them.
