Chapter 208 Awakening
Chapter 208 Awakening
I don't believe Lin Qiuran will keep sleeping.
Since kind words can't move him, what if we scare him?
"Kid, let me tell you, if I'm being nice and you still don't wake up, then I'll call Wu Qian right now and have her come over and yell at you to wake you up."
"You're most afraid of Wu Qian worrying, aren't you?"
"The children have been running around with you, it must have been tough for them. Don't you miss them? If you do, wake up now!"
"Otherwise, I'll call Wu Qian as soon as I leave this ward."
However, I was too optimistic. Even after I left the ward, Lin Qiuran was still lying motionless on the hospital bed.
In the end, I called Wu Qian. When Wu Qian answered my call, she immediately asked about Lin Qiuran's condition with great anxiety.
I didn't answer any of her questions, I just told her, "Buy the earliest ticket back tomorrow. Remember, you have to come back alone."
Perhaps my tone was too serious, because Wu Qian even paused for a moment on the phone.
After a long silence, she asked me uncertainly, and very carefully lowered her voice, "Has something happened to him?"
I don't know how to begin or explain; it's a long story.
Finally, she broke the silence, "Okay, I'll be back tomorrow. Until then, please keep an eye on him, Brother Zhang."
Back in the ward, I looked at Lin Qiuran and said to myself, "Qiuran, you miss Xiaoqian too, don't you? She's coming back tomorrow, aren't you happy?"
……
The next morning, I received a call from Wu Qian.
I rushed to the airport to pick her up, and then we went to the hospital together.
On the way, I briefly explained the situation to her, but not in too much detail, not wanting her to worry too much.
Wu Qian was very strong; when she heard that Lin Qiuran was unconscious, she only teared up.
Perhaps she was already mentally prepared when she received my call last night.
Wu Qian didn't say anything the whole way, but she seemed extremely nervous.
She was tense the whole way; I could see her fingers were always clenched tightly.
Upon arriving at the hospital, she went straight to Lin Qiuran's ward. When she saw Lin Qiuran lying quietly on the hospital bed, she finally burst into tears.
After Wu Qian went into the ward, I called Xu, the caregiver, out to wait at the door.
At first, Wu Qian's sobs, which she tried her best to suppress, could still be heard.
But gradually, all that could be heard was her indistinct voice.
I sat on a bench outside the ward, waiting for Wu Qian.
After an unknown amount of time, Wu Qian suddenly pushed open the door to the ward, her face showing a mixture of anxiety and unexpected surprise.
She called out to me loudly, "Brother Zhang, come quick! Come quick!"
From her expression, I seemed to see the result she wanted.
I rushed into the ward, and under her guidance, I saw Lin Qiuran's fingers slowly begin to move, becoming more and more agile.
A moment later, Lin Qiuran slowly opened her eyes.
"Qiuran, you're finally awake!" Wu Qian happily threw herself into his arms.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the couple finally together again, I felt very comforted, and my eyes welled up with tears.
"You're finally awake!"
A short while later, Xu, the caregiver, brought doctors and nurses, and Wu Qian and I were asked to come out.
Wu Qian stood outside the door, overjoyed and filled with relief, but tears still streamed down her face.
After a thorough examination, the doctor happily informed us.
"Once he wakes up, he'll be fine. Judging from Mr. Lin's reaction, there shouldn't be any brain damage."
"However, we will only know the exact results after the subsequent examinations. For now, you just need to rest and recover."
Wu Qian thanked the doctors and nurses profusely, and after they left, we were finally able to sit down.
After all that commotion, Lin Qiuran was fully conscious.
He leaned against the bed, and Wu Qian got him some water and then peeled an apple for him.
Their eyes met frequently, filled with deep affection.
When Lin Qiuran looked at me, she scratched her head a little embarrassedly.
"Oh my god, I've caused you so much trouble these past few days. I've heard everything from Xiaoqian. Thank goodness for you, otherwise I don't know what would have become of my family."
"Why say all this? We're all family. Unless you consider me an outsider."
His ability to wake up again is more important to me than anything else.
"How could that be? I was worried you wouldn't consider me family!" Lin Qiuran quickly explained.
He also talked about some things that happened during his coma, and in his memory, it all felt like a dream.
"Actually, I can hear what you're saying, but it's all hazy, like I'm in a dream."
“I know everything you told me and did, but I just want to get a good night’s sleep. I feel so tired.”
I can understand how he feels.
I've thought about this a few times when I was in the hospital; I just wished I could fall asleep and never have to face anything again.
But if there's something on your mind, it's impossible not to wake up.
Wu Qian was right in front of us, and we tacitly agreed not to let her worry too much, so we didn't mention anything about the Dong family.
I joked with a laugh, "In the end, it's Wu Qian who's really amazing. She just came in and said a few words, and you were awake. What does that prove? True love creates miracles!"
Wu Qian blushed after what I said, but Lin Qiuran was not so formal with me.
He took Wu Qian's hand, cupped it in his palms, and gently caressed it.
"I'm definitely going to wake up. I haven't had enough of the life with my wife, kids, and a warm bed. How could I bear to leave them like this!"
We were so happy to see Lin Qiuran wake up that we forgot about time.
It wasn't until Caregiver Xu brought the food to me that we realized it was already noon.
Lin Qiuran's meal was specially made, and even mine was different.
When the caregiver, Xu, brought me the meal, she casually mentioned, "This was specially brought over by General Manager Song for the gentleman, so you can eat slowly and not upset your stomach."
Originally, I didn't want Lin Qiuran to know about my reconciliation with Song Yafei so soon, but Xu, the caregiver, let it slip.
Wu Qian and Lin Qiuran both knew some of the inside story, and when they heard what Xu the caregiver said, they both looked at me in surprise.
"Oh my god, what's going on? Why is Song Yafei contacting you again? Is she making things difficult for you again?"
I shook my head, but I didn't dare tell them the truth, otherwise it would only add to their psychological burden.
"Don't worry, nothing's wrong."
"After going around in circles, I realized that she is the person who understands me best, and this time she genuinely wants to be with me. I want to give her one last chance to try."
"But……"
Lin Qiuran seemed to have guessed something, and her face suddenly turned pale.
"Is it because of me that you got back together with her?"
