Please Don’t Give Up on Me

Qi Yue stared at the badge for a while, and suddenly struggled to sit up. She supported half of her body on the edge of the bed with one hand, and reached for the badge with one hand.

She was still very weak and weak, and just such a movement made her sweat on her forehead. However, when the badge was caught in his hand, Qi Yue felt relieved by the cold touch.

Su Qing hurriedly stepped forward to support Qi Yue when he saw this, "You have just woke up, and you are still very weak. Don't be aggressive, just lie down and take a good rest."

Qi Yue obediently retracted into the quilt: "Well. Teacher, I feel better. I thought I was going to die before."

Su Qing smiled: "Then it seems that the special medicine is really effective. In fact, let alone you, the patient who was infected before took the new medicine, and the condition has improved."

Qi Yue's eyes lit up: "Lin Jing and the others really took back the research results of Academician Tian?"

Su Qing paused slightly: "Yeah."

Qi Yue keenly sensed Su Qing's hesitation.

She slowly squeezed the badge in her hand and asked the question in her mind: "Lin Jing and the others...what's the situation now?"

Su Qing was quiet for a moment: "I heard that this operation was also a victory in danger... They had a large-scale frontal fight with the enemy..."

Qi Yue interrupted her with an uncharacteristically aggressive tone: "Teacher, where is Lin Jing now?"

Su Qing: "..."

Su Qing's face was embarrassed, but he stopped talking.

Qi Yue's heart image was tied to a boulder and sank all the way to the bottom of the sea. She couldn't describe the feeling... the feeling that a large part of her heart was empty in an instant, and she could truly feel the pain of her heart tugging in her chest.

In such a silent waiting, Qi Yue almost collapsed.

She didn’t know where the power came from, she suddenly sat up and took Su Qing’s hand: "Teacher, please tell me... what happened? Don’t hide from me..."

When he said the last three words, Qi Yue's voice began to tremble uncontrollably.

Su Qing had never seen such a fragile appearance of Qi Yue, and the look in Qi Yue's eyes that was scared and still holding a glimmer of hope made her a little bit unbearable. She stretched out her hand and pressed it heavily on Qi Yue's shoulder: "Don't panic, listen to the teacher..."

Qi Yue trembled slightly, bit her lip severely, and forced herself to calm down: "You said..."

Su Qing: "I heard Shan Shijun say that when they retreated, they were ambushed by the enemy. Because Chen Chong was seriously injured and unconscious. In order to send the research report back, Lin Jing took the initiative to stay behind. Cover Yu Hai and they retreat."

Qi Yue stared at Su Qing through the blurred vision, opened her mouth numbly, but her voice was extremely weak: "Then..."

Su Qing: "It has been five days since the end of the mission, and Lin Jing has not returned. So the above means, it is tentatively designated as MIA."

MIA—MissinginAction, used to mark missing persons in wars or missions.

Although, as long as the body is not found, there is still a glimmer of hope. However, they all know that in 90% of the cases, the files of personnel who are classified as MIA will remain in that state, or they may wait a few years before being changed to ‘sacrifice’.

Qi Yue slowly closed his painful eyes and pressed his fist against the heart of his forehead to cover up his sore nose: "The search and rescue team...has it been dispatched?"

Su Qing: "They were sent out on the day they came back...and they have been searching now. The scope has expanded to the entire territory of Livia."

Qi Yue was quiet for a long time.

"I see…"

It took about a few minutes before she said such a sentence. When I made the sound, I was completely choked up.

Suddenly, there were a few muffled noises on the sheets, which were very light.

But because no one in the ward spoke for a while, the voice was exceptionally abrupt.

Su Qing was stunned for a moment, and as soon as she looked up, she saw a series of water drops sliding down the gap between Qi Yue's fingers covering her face, and hitting the quilt one after another.

Qi Yue suddenly lay back, facing Su Qing with his back, and covered his head with one hand across the quilt.

"...Teacher, I want to rest."

After a while, she said in a voice that had been dumbed.

"There is porridge in the thermos on the table, you remember to eat a little." Su Qing knew she wanted to be alone, exhorted, and left the ward.

Qi Yue held the rose badge in his hand and, like a wounded hedgehog, grouped himself into a ball—an action that people would subconsciously do when they feel most insecure.

The edge of the badge in the palm of the hand, because it is in the shape of a rose, is also angular. Qi Yue held it very hard, and even a few sharp edges had plunged into her palm, but she didn't notice it.

The surrounding environment was very quiet, she could hear her heartbeat, and it was very hard and fast.

Then the position of the heart suddenly tightened, as if being strangled by force. A blunt knife-like pain that spreads from the position of the heart to the entire chest cavity. With the dull feeling in his chest, Qi Yue's eyes turned black in vain, and even a little breathless...

Qi Yue lifted the quilt and took several deep breaths. It took a long time before she slowly recovered.

She raised her hand to touch the position of her chest, which was still as dull and dull as being pressed by a boulder, but her heart rate had slowly dropped. She didn't even know, it turned out that it liked that person so much...

Under the action of the medicine, Qi Yue fell asleep again drowsy.

However, there was a huge boulder in his heart, and he couldn't sleep well after all. When I close my eyes, there is a nightmare followed by another nightmare. For a while, I dreamed that Lin Jing was lying wounded in a pool of blood, and asked her why she would not forgive him. After a while, she dreamed that Lin Jing had become a bone and his name had been engraved on the monument to the martyrs in the brigade. After tossing and turning into the middle of the night, she suddenly opened her eyes and saw a person sitting on the head of the bed. The familiar smell on him made her miss crazy.

Qi Yue's eyes slightly warmed: "You are back..."

Lin Jing smiled at her so softly.

Qi Yue stretched out his hand, trying to hold his hand by the bed. However, the feeling of being restrained reappeared. She gave up so much effort and made her head sweat, and finally touched Lin Jing's hand with her fingertips. However, as soon as he met, Lin Jing's whole body was blurred, and then disappeared...

"Lin Jing!!"

Qi Yue sat up suddenly, and she woke up again from her dream, again in a cold sweat. She gasped for breath, and then realized that she had another dream. Her first action was to reach out to touch the phone under the pillow-she hurriedly opened the lock screen and checked the time on the phone.

There was a trace of luck in her heart. Maybe the things Su Qing had told her before were just a dream. After all, severely ill patients with virus Y may be insane at the end, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion...

Maybe she woke up from the dream, she would find that Lin Jing was still the one who was so awkward that she wouldn't say anything, and she was still waiting for the medical miracle to appear.

"Have a nightmare?" A faint female voice sounded from the darkness.

Qi Yue only noticed that there was a group of dark figures sitting next to him. She was frightened unexpectedly, and turned on the bedside lamp with her backhand.

After seeing the appearance of the dark shadow, Qi Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and then became a little annoyed: "Zhao Tianxin, what are you doing..."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I have been guarding Chen Chong during the day, and Teacher Su told me that you were awake and just wanted to come and see you."

Qi Yue was quiet for a moment, and the fluke that was pulsating in his heart, like the faint candlelight in the cold winter, was blown out by the wind.

Under the dim light, Qi Yue realized that Zhao Tianxin looked very haggard at this time, more like a patient than her. Zhao Tianxin's face was a bit fat and cute, but now he can poke people with the tip of his chin. Not only that, both eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, the sockets were sunken, and the rim of her eyes was thick blue and black. At first glance, she actually had the meaning of a thin panda, and she had a sad and funny feeling.

However, Qi Yue couldn't laugh. Zhao Tianxin is the most optimistic person she has ever seen. She said she was second, and no one dared to be the first. Including the fact that they have been in Livia for so long, they have encountered a lot of big and small things, but nothing seems to be able to take her smile away. It's not an exaggeration to say that she is the pistachio of the entire medical camp.

There is only one thing that can make such an optimistic person depressed.

"How is Chen Chong? I heard... he was seriously injured?" Qi Yue asked carefully.

Zhao Tianxin looked at Qi Yue with undisguised pain in his eyes: "He suffered a severe head injury, because of ischemia for too long, which led to the death of a large number of brain cells. Now he has fallen into a deep coma and his cognitive ability has been completely lost."

Qi Yue: "It has been determined that it is...PVS?"

Zhao Tianxin nodded almost invisible, then suddenly raised his hand to cover his face, crying bitterly...

"I am a doctor myself. But I didn't expect that I couldn't even save my beloved one..."

There was no sound in the ward for a while, only a woman's painful and desperate howling and intermittent gasps.

Seeing Zhao Tianxin become like this, Qi Yue is also heartbroken.

Zhao Tianxin choked and said, "Chen Chong told me before that Team Lin said that after this mission, he would be transferred from the front line and sent to the headquarters. He also said that he must perform well this time, making Team Lin feel that …Falcon can’t do without this person. I was quite supportive of him before, but now I want to come...Isn’t this pushing him into the fire pit..."

Qi Yue felt a little in her heart, and felt an inexplicable feeling: "Lin Jing has said...why did you want to transfer Chen Chong away from the frontline?"

Zhao Tianxin: "I don't know. When I asked Chen Chong, he always faltered..."

Qi Yue could not speak. At that moment, she suddenly understood Lin Jing's intentions, and also understood his unspeakable concealment all the time.

Qi Yue understood all of Lin Jing's fears and fears, his avoidance and contradictions in that moment.

"That big fool..."

Suddenly hearing Qi Yue cursing with such gritted teeth, Zhao Tianxin was a little unsure. However, as soon as she raised her head, she saw a line of clear thin lines, sliding down silently along Qi Yue's beautiful profile.
