Chapter 730: Praises
Yu Dong was stunned when she saw that Fang Chi was not only awake but he was talking to her. Her eyes started to flicker with tears as she reached her hands towards the stupid mer and brought Fang Chi in her arms, even though just a day passed by, for Yu Dong it was like a year. Not only did she lose her child but if Fang Chi stayed in a coma like he was yesterday, she was afraid that she might have lost the two of them as well.
But now that Fang Chi was here, Yu Dong felt like she could breathe again and the rock that was pressing on her heart like a burden finally got lifted as she hugged the now awake Fang Chi.
" You stupid, you scared me so much!" Yu Dong muttered against Fang Chi's neck as she hugged him tightly, she was afraid that if she let go of him, he will once again pass out and leave her behind to worry for him. " Why did you not wake up soon?"
Fang Chi patted Yu Dong on the back, he was guilty of leaving her alone to suffer. He was not the only one who lost his daughter, Yu Dong too lost her daughter yet he left her alone to face everything and made her worried as well, in fact, he was aware of what was going on around him but he did not want to wake up.
He heard everything that was being said to him but he was too heartbroken to hear a single word properly much less wake-up, he knew that he had a child in his belly whom he needed to take care of but he was selfish and foolish. He was so lost at the thought of losing his child that he completely forgot about the one that was in his belly.
And more importantly, he was worried that he will have to face Yu Dong's disgust if he was to open his eyes. He could have saved the child if he was a bit stronger and made sure that his wife's business will not be affected by the new laws but he was useless and could not take care of the child.
It was only when Xiao Hua came to sit next to him last night and told him that he had made Qiu Bai suffer for what he did that Fang Chi was able to think clearly. Xiao Hua and the rest of his brothers told him that no one blamed him for what happened and that they were waiting for him to wake up.
Xiao Hua went as far as to threaten him with the fact that he will snatch his place if he did not wake up soon. That was when Fang Chi realised that even though he was grieving the daughter whom he lost, there was someone important who was waiting for him and he could not lose her too which was why when Yu Dong came to his room, he willed himself to wake up even when he did not feel like he wanted to open his eyes.
" I am sorry, I was a fool," Yu Dong of course knew that Fang Chi was half-conscious and knew what was going on around him but she was patient with him. She did not force him nor did she threaten him to wake up instead she gave him the time that he needed, but she still hoped that he will wake up soon since he had a child in his belly.
" Of course, you were a fool!" A voice came from the door where Chen Mi was holding a bowl of porridge that has been simmering in the pot for an entire morning and now every grain of rice was oozing with the taste of the chicken soup. " You had us worried, I was thinking that we will have to shove this chicken porridge down your throat if you did not wake up by now, it is good that you are awake. Now you can eat it without being forced."
As he spoke he placed the bowl of porridge which was on the tray in front of Fang Chi as his eyes mellowed a little but he still sternly spoke, " Eat every last bit of rice and do not leave anything behind."
" Yes, brother Mi," seeing Chen Mi act like his big brother, Fang Chi was tickled as he nodded and agreed cordially before picking up the chopsticks and then taking a bite of the porridge that was sitting in front of him. He blinked his eyes and then said in a choked-up voice, "It is good, it is really …good."
" Why are you crying?" Shen Li who heard Fang Chi's voice walked inside the room and was pleasantly surprised when he saw that Fang Chi was indeed awake. With a gentle smile on his lips, he walked forward and sat down on the edge of Fang Chi's bed and then wiped the tears that were trickling down Fang Chi's eyes with the tips of his fingers. "Did Yu Dong say something to you? If she did then you can tell me, and I will scold her for you."
Though Shen Li knew that Yu Dong will never say anything to Fang Chi, he still glared at the latter with a mock glare which amused Yu Dong more rather than scaring her.
" Yeah, I can beat her up as well if you want to," chimed Ye Liu who looked awkward upon seeing Fang Chi, he did not approach Fang Chi but instead stayed far away since he could not handle crying mers well but anyone could see the concern in his eyes. " There is no need for you to cry."
" Who is crying?" Xiao Hua who brought a bunch of children's clothes with him peeped inside Fang Chi's room. When he saw that Fang Chi was awake he walked inside and then handed the pile of clothes that he brought to Chen Mi who stumbled under the weight, as he caught the pile of clothes and glared at Xiao Hua but didn't drop the clothes that were handed to him.
One of these days, he was going to show Xiao Hua who was the boss here!
