Autistic genius, a flourishing era of scientific research

The water has gone completely cold.

Although he wasn't sleepy at all, Lu Qinghuan still said, "I want to sleep. Third brother, you should go to sleep too."

Lu Ze looked at her for a while, nodded, yawned, and stood up to leave.

Before closing the door, he watched Lu Qinghuan get into bed, cover herself with the quilt, and then turned off the light.

…………

The operation lasted more than two hours.

Liang Haoxue, who was waiting outside the operating room, became more and more anxious. In the end, she could not sit still at all. She walked up and down the corridor and asked every nurse she passed by why the operation was taking so long.

I was afraid that Jiang Yan's operation would not go smoothly.

Fortunately, when the operating room door opened, Jiang Yan was pushed out on a mobile bed. The doctor was reminding her that her fractured left hand had been thoroughly bandaged using fixation and spiral methods. Because her condition was a little serious, a splint was also applied, and finally her entire forearm was fixed by hanging it around her neck with a bandage.

The expressions on the nurses' faces were much more relaxed than before they went in. It seemed that Jiang Yan's operation went quite smoothly.

Liang Haoxue hurried forward, and with Liang Haoxue's help, Jiang Yan got down from the bed and stood steadily on the ground.

Not much information can be revealed from her face, and her pale complexion is still so worrying.

"Jiang Yan, are you in pain?" Liang Haoxue couldn't help but ask.

"The anesthesia hasn't worn off yet." Jiang Yan glanced at her left hand. "I can't feel it."

The anesthesia in my hands hadn't worn off yet, so I naturally couldn't feel the pain.

Once the anesthesia wears off, it will definitely hurt.

The doctor gave some more instructions and then prescribed some medicine. When the two followed the nurse to get the medicine, the nurse scolded Jiang Yan again.

The money Jiang Yan brought with her today was not enough to pay for the two's medical expenses and surgery, so she wrote an IOU at the hospital.

The nurse was also very straightforward when she wrote the IOU. Thinking of Jiang Yan's two brothers, she knew that other people might let the IOU go, but Jiang Yan would definitely not do that.

"Why don't you two ask an adult to pick you up? If you fall on the way back, will you still have your hand? It's so late, why don't you just sleep in the hospital."

"We have a ward that's empty. You can squeeze in there for one night."

Seeing the two teenage girls about to leave the hospital in the dark, the nurse felt worried when she saw their backs carrying a bag of medicine.

I couldn't help but call the person over.

"No, I have to go back. Thank you." Jiang Yan turned around and shook her head at the nurse. This nurse often took care of her during the summer vacation and was an acquaintance to her.

"Okay then, be careful on the road."

Seeing that she couldn't keep the patients, the nurse didn't say much. She watched the two leave the hospital and sighed.

On the way back, Jiang Yan was still riding a bike with Liang Haoxue.

Liang Haoxue always kept an eye on Jiang Yan in front of her. If anything went wrong with her or she rode unsteadily, she would definitely protect Jiang Yan's hand.

Just a hundred meters away from the hospital, the street lights were above their heads.

There was a turn ahead, and Jiang Yan rang the bicycle bell a few times and slowed down.

The tinkling sound of the bells sounded particularly empty at night.

"Would you consider being my bodyguard?"

Her voice came into Liang Haoxue's ears from the front.

Liang Haoxue let out a confused cry.

"W-what do you mean?"

Jiang Yan simply stopped the car and put one foot on the ground under the street light.

Liang Haoxue quickly got off the back seat, walked over to her and asked, "Does your hand hurt? Otherwise, don't ride the bike anymore. I'll push it and follow you back."

She was really afraid that Jiang Yan would get hurt again. Even if it was just a small matter, she would be extremely nervous.

Jiang Yan turned his head to look at her while sitting on the bicycle, and shook his head slightly:

"No. Being my bodyguard means standing in front of me when danger strikes, like tonight. Also, accompanying me on personal matters, and keeping the mission and the actions of my employer confidential."

"Your current ability is not enough for full-time work, so you can only be considered part-time, and the salary is five dollars per session."

"Special requirements: Absolute obedience to me. In other words, be obedient enough to do whatever I say."

As she spoke, she took out a five-yuan note from her pocket. Under the street light, the worn and stained note still looked dim.

But in Liang Haoxue's eyes, it was extremely dazzling.

She was almost unable to think. She looked at the money in front of her, then looked up at Jiang Yan helplessly.

My brain seemed to have crashed, and I mumbled, "I, I still don't understand..."

Jiang Yan was not in a hurry and took it slow:

"Except for your mother, all the elders in your family are greedy for money. Money can solve your current predicament at home."

"There are so many things I want to do, and I need someone by my side to protect me when I encounter trouble or danger."

"You performed very well tonight." In fact, Jiang Yan was quite satisfied with her performance this afternoon.

Except for the moment when I had to follow her out of the school at the beginning, I felt a little dissatisfied.

Even though Liang Haoxue was confused about her behavior, she still obeyed and followed her instructions. This was what she wanted most.

Although Jiang Yan said so, Liang Haoxue felt that she was not good at all and was even holding herself back. She waved her hands and shook her head:

"But your hand is broken. If it weren't for me..."

"Because you are too weak, but it doesn't matter anymore."

Jiang Yan interrupted her and looked into her eyes intently. Her dark pupils looked even deeper in the night. Her tone was firm:

"You need money, and I need you."

The night wind was a little cold, and Liang Haoxue felt that her blood was hot, boiling hot.

She stood firmly beside the bicycle, looking up slightly at the girl sitting on it.

Jiang Yan was famous for her beauty in school. Her hair was a little loose and messy after she came out of the operating room, with soft strands of hair hanging down on one side of her face.

It is as beautiful as a painting, like a magnificent view of mountains and rivers created by nature, like the magnificence and distant beauty of the sunset. It is so close yet so far away that I dare not despise it or offend it.

She often looked indifferent and indifferent to other things, which made Liang Haoxue feel for a moment that Jiang Yan in front of her was not a human, but a ghost that lurked in the night.

Many people find her aloof and strange, but are also deeply attracted by her innocent and carefree nature.

On that beautiful face that never shows too many emotions, there are a pair of eyes that can gaze into people's souls.

"I, I can't beat anyone. Can I be the bodyguard you mentioned?"

Liang Haoxue only knew that she could definitely do it by running errands, but she had no confidence at all in the bodyguard Jiang Yan mentioned this time.

But Jiang Yan's words made her very excited.

Yes, she needs money.

And Jiang Yan said that she needed her.

Liang Haoxue had no way to refuse, no matter from what aspect or angle.

She couldn't find any reason or excuse to refuse.

She was only afraid that she would not do well enough, betray Jiang Yan's trust, and waste the hiring fee Jiang Yan gave her.

Jiang Yan put her intact right hand back on the handlebar and gently turned the bell paddle, which made a ding sound.

She said, "You are very weak. You really can't beat anyone."

"So, you want to be my bodyguard, what do you need to do?"

Liang Haoxue replied without hesitation: "I know."

But he did not say in detail what he knew. He just pursed his lips and clenched his hands at his sides into fists.

If something like tonight happens again, Jiang Yan will not get hurt again while saving her.

Perhaps it was because she had just experienced a life-and-death situation, or perhaps it was because of Jiang Yan's unwavering attitude, but Liang Haoxue was now more calm and composed.
