Yun Liu’s eyes flashed. She didn’t expect the Gu family to be so unscrupulous. They were even more shameless than the Yun family.
Seeing that the girls understood, Chang Hui was in a good mood, so she said to Zheng Xiu, “Bai Jie’s branch of the family may seem like they have all the power just because they’re the main branch of the Gu family, but the Gu family doesn’t just belong to the main family. And with how Gu Fei turned out, he probably won’t be able to keep hold of the Gu family’s wealth and assets.”
“By then, no one in the Gu family will be able to contend with us. Our Gu He is born lucky because everything in the Gu family will belong to him in the future. It will definitely belong to him!” Chang Hui stated ambitiously.
Zheng Xiu gently replied, “It’s all thanks to you and your husband, Chang Hui.
Gu He’s lucky because he has his uncle, auntie, and cousins to look out for him. That’s why, whenever he’s disobedient, I really want to smack him! Everyone’s hopes are resting on him, and he’ll let everyone down if he doesn’t live up to expectations. If he became like Gu Fei, spoiled and misbehaving, it’d be a waste of all the blood and sweat we’ve put in for him. Isn’t that right, Chang Hui?”
Chang Hui pondered Zheng Xiu’s words and turned to ask Gu Wen, “Did the people following Gu He say anything?”
Gu Wen hurriedly answered, “Gu He has been doing quite well recently, and his grades are also pretty good. He’s much more sensible than before. Don’t worry, Mom. We definitely won’t let Gu He become a good-for-nothing like Gu Fei.”
Chang Hui nodded and didn’t doubt Gu Wen’s words; she trusted her very much. Zheng Xiu and Yun Liu looked at each other before withdrawing their gazes.
[Back at the hospital]
Shi Nian silently accompanied Yun Nan. He had never expected things to turn out like this. In retrospect, the clues were there all along. He just didn’t expect fate to deal them such a cruel hand. He only now understood that Xi Cheng was always drinking because of Fang Xi, and Fang Xi’s depression was because of Xi Cheng.
Shi Nian believed that Xi Cheng loved Fang Xi because he’d seen how Xi Cheng had tortured himself after she left him. However, it had taken Fang Xi everything she had to get over him and accept Ye Kun into her heart. ‘And what of Ye Kun? Hés innocent in all this. This whole thing is too cruel to him,’ Shi Nian inwardly sighed for what felt like the thousandth time.
A nurse came over to persuade Shi Nian and Yun Nan to return to their ward. Yun Nan naturally refused. However, she turned to Shi Nian and said, “You should head back and rest. You don’t have to wait here.”
Yun Nan’s tone was much colder than the way she’d spoken to him before, and Shi Nian couldn’t help but smile wryly. ‘Looks like I’m guilty by association. In the end, I still got dragged down by my buddies.’
He waved the nurse off and reached forward to hold Yun Nan’s hand before gently saying, “I’ll wait with you. Don’t worry; Fang Xi will definitely make it through. She’s not someone who leaves things unfinished.”
He continued, “There are so many things in Yun Innovations and so many people waiting for her. Fang Xi’s too worried about them to leave like this. Shi Xiu still needs her; she wouldn’t let Shi Xiu run around recklessly on her own in the entertainment industry. You’re her best friend, Yun Nan, and she hasn’t seen you live a happy life yet, so how could she bear to leave?”
Yun Nan immediately teared up when she heard that, and her tears fell onto Shi Nian’s hands. Shi Nian reached out and hugged Yun Nan. Yun Nan leaned on Shi Nian and finally let herself cry.
Watching from the side, Xiang Yang heaved a sigh of relief. ‘Oh, good. She’s letting it all out. I was worried she would keep everything inside,’ she thought.
The operating room’s red light went out. Shi Nian quickly helped Yun Nan sit back straight in her wheelchair as three doctors walked out with solemn expressions on their faces. Yun Nan was so nervous when she saw them that she stood up from her wheelchair, and Xiang Yang hurried forward to stop her.
“Doctor, how is she?” Yun Nan asked, ignoring her sister-in-law.
The doctors hesitated and then informed them, “The surgery’s complete, but due to the massive intracranial hemorrhage, the rest is now up to the patient. She’s still unconscious and isn’t breathing on her own. We’ll send her to the ICU for further observation. She’ll only wake up after the blood is reabsorbed to a certain extent. As for whether there’ll be any complications after she wakes up… that remains to be seen.”
Yun Nan’s mind was in a mess, and there was a ringing in her ears. She understood every word the doctor said individually, but strung together, she was completely lost. She instinctively looked toward Shi Nian for help.
With the help of the armrest of his wheelchair, Shi Nian also stood up. He put an arm around Yun Nan’s shoulders in a comforting manner and asked the doctors, “What do we need to do next to help her recover?”
The doctors thought for a moment and looked at the couple. “Just like the two of you back then, she might wake up if you guys talk to her more. I’ll tell the doctor in charge of the ICU to increase the number and time of visits for the patient and pay attention to the changes in the patient’s vital signs at all times… We’re unsure when she’ll wake up. You guys have to be mentally prepared; she may need long-term care.”
Shi Nian nodded hurriedly. “Okay! As long as she’s still alive, we’ll do our best to wake her up! Isn’t that right, Yun Nan?”
Yun Nan’s tears streamed down her face. “I’ll definitely wake her up.. She must wake up!”
