The next morning I asked Leon how did he feel and he said he was feeling better but he could still not see.
Which was normal because no medicine in this world takes effect that fast.
After washing and having breakfast, I laid Leon down and began to wash his eyes with the medicine liquid.
He closed his eyes and submit himself completely to me. Even looking up closely, his face was still flawless. His skin was glowing and his features delicate. What a lucky man. God not only gives him a great family, but also gives him a beautiful face.
“Nala” He called out to me gently.
“Am I doing it too hard? Does it hurt?” I asked.
“No, it doesn’t hurt at all. It’s very comfortable. I feel so happy .” Leon said.
That was the first time I heard Leon saying the word, happy, and saying it when he was so close to me.
“I can’t see, but I can still feel your touch, and hear your breath. And this makes me feel happy. A kind of happiness that has long abandoned me.” Leon continued.
I smiled, “I never knew people like you are also capable of happiness. When you recover, you will be happier.”
“I have a strange sensation.”
“What is it?”
“I feel like what is happening now happened before. It is such a familiar feeling.”
I shocked. Of course this happened before. According to Nan Lin, the one who took care of Leon back in Nan House was me. So what I’m doing now was done by me long ago.
“We’ve been together for such a long time, and of course you will find something familiar from time to time. It is pretty normal.”
“This is not the first time I get blind, you know? And when you lose your sight, the other senses of yours get exceptionally stronger, especially your hearing, which is almost twice sensitive as it usually is.”
“I don’t know that, as I have never experienced it before. What’s your point.”
“When I can’t see, I can smell your aroma, hear your breath and detect every single detail of yours. This feeling is so far but so familiar, and it reminds me of Nan Lin.”
I didn’t know what to say. Why did it remind him of Nan Lin?
“I didn’t know Nan Lin’s face, and every memory I had about her was built upon other senses, like hearing and smell. Now I’m blind, and I can feel her again.”
I got his point. But I pretended not to understand him.
“Maybe you are missing her. I can call her if you want.” I pretended to be jealous.
” No. Nan Lin can no longer make me feel that way. But when I’m with you, all these feelings are just rushing back to me. I don’t know why. ”
My hand shook slightly. I got so excited but I had to remain calm.
What Leon said just now proved what Nan Lin told me was true, at least partially true. It was indeed me who took care of him, but I don’t know whether it was me who poisoned him.
“Why are you getting so excited?” Leon sensed my emotion.
“No I’m not. I was just getting jealous because you kept talking about Nan Lin. But I was not that excited, was I?”
Leon smiled. “I don’t believe you. A woman never admits that she is jealous. If a woman says she is jealous, well, she is not.”
“I’m an exception. I’m honest. If I get jealous, I will just admit it.”
“My dear wife, if you are an honest person, the bar for what’s considered as honest will be so low that every person on earth will be honest. Seriously, when you apply medicine on my eyes, I was reminded of Nan Lin.
“Mr Hua. Could you please stop mentioning one woman’s name in front of another woman. Don’t you think that is a little rude?” I want to put an end to this topic.
“Fine. I just told you my true feelings, and I don’t mean anything else. Thank you so much for taking care of me. I appreciate it.”
“You are welcome. We are married. And we should take care of each other.”
When we were done with the medicine, the stocky market is opened. The stock price was rather stable, and st first it dropped a little bit but then it raised up pretty fast. But the turnover was not as good as it was yesterday.
Leon said if the turnover doesn’t go up, the rise of the price may get less stable.
Then my phone rang, and it was Mu Chen. He asked Leon to talk to him. I put him speaker and placed my phone near to Leon.
“This is Leon, what’s up.” Leon said.
“I have got the fund prepared, and I’ve been waiting for your call. What’s the situation now?” Mu Chen asked.
“I have been curing My eyes these days and I didn’t mind the business. I also asked some friends to protect the stock price so you don’t need to put your money in at this time.”
“This is a huge amount of money and it was very difficult for me to take them out. You are not going to make me stand by and watch, are you? I’m only your substitution?” Mu Chen said.
These people are quite experienced, and they figured it out immediately.
“Yes.” Leon said frankly.
“So if in the end you don’t use my fund, all my efforts will be in vain? Then why don’t you tell me earlier? Now what do I do with the fund?” Mu Chen was obviously annoyed.
I thought Leon would apologize to Mu Chen, but he didn’t.
“I think your fund will be used. Objectively speaking, you are not a substitution, instead, you are much more important, you will be crucial to me if the short selling is failed.”
“I’m asking you what would you do if my fund is not used in the end.”
“I will compensate your loss. How about that?”
“I don’t need you to pay me any interest. How about this, when Hua’s Group is out of trouble, I need you to give me some fund so that I can short sell another company. Then we will be even. How about that?” Mu Chen asked.
“We will talk about it by then. I don’t want to explain it to Jiannan. You can tell him what is going on.”
“That little demon is tough. You tell him yourself. I don’t want to reason with that uncivilized man.”
When Mu Chen said “uncivilized man”, I almost laughed out. I don’t think Jiannan is uncivilized at all.
“I don’t want to talk to him either, you do it. When my eyes are cured, I will go back to Hai City and then we can have dinner together. I’ll take my sister.” Leon said.
Mu Chen’s tone was obvious was delighted. “Fine, I’ll talk to Jiannan and explain it for you.”
“Okay. That’s it.” Leon motioned to me to hang up the phone.
