Tan Yazhuo didn't ask any more questions and said, "Tidy up. We'll have to go on stage for a photo later. Don't be impolite."
Got it.
...
The next day, He Cheng made a phone call and asked His wife about Cheng Jiu.
Lady He knew something. She knew many rich men and was well-informed. Besides, such a big incident had happened to the Cheng family. How could she keep it a secret? So she told him everything and asked him, "How did you inquire about the Cheng family's affairs?"
"Casual question."
Lady He didn't dare to ask too many questions either, fearing that she might say something wrong and make He Cheng unhappy. So she changed the subject and asked him with concern how he was doing recently and if he was short of money. He Cheng, upon hearing this, gave a few perfunctory words and hung up the phone.
He asked Tan Yazhuo for a half-day off and was going out for a meeting. Tan Yazhuo reminded him that he would come back for a physical training class in the evening and let him go.
He Cheng went to the hospital, where he had learned from Lady He that Cheng Jiu was staying.
However, Mrs. He had no idea which ward Cheng Ju was in. When He Cheng arrived at the hospital, he asked around all the way and only then did he find out which ward Cheng Ju was in.
Xin Gan is also accompanying Cheng Jiu in the hospital at this moment.
He Cheng stood at the door of the ward and saw her figure. With a blank expression, he pushed the door open and went in.
Xin Gan turned around upon hearing the sound and saw He Cheng. His expression instantly darkened.
When He Cheng arrived, he greeted her very naturally, smiled, and sized up Cheng Jiu who was lying still from top to bottom, saying, "He's really in a vegetative state. How come, he's like this and you're still by his side?"
Xin Gan said, "You shouldn't have come here."
He Cheng: "Since you're here, I should have come."
Xin Gan didn't want to pay any attention to him. With a stern face, she drove him away, saying, "Get out."
I didn't mean anything else. I just came to have a look. Xin Gan, if he really becomes a vegetative state, why don't you come back and follow me? I'm good to you. I'm in good health and can satisfy you.
Xin Gan suppressed her anger and warned him in a low voice, "Don't stir up trouble."
Xin Gan, every time you get angry, you act like a little kitten, being fierce but unable to do so. Seeing you like this, I can't help but feel so heartbroken. I came to you not to quarrel with you. I just want to tell you that I was wrong before. Give me a chance. Cheng Jiu is half dead now. He will hold you back. You stay with me. I'm the most suitable man for you.
Xin Gan sneered, "Stop pretending, He Cheng. Who I'm with has nothing to do with you. Don't pester me anymore. If you do, I'll expose what you did before."
Can you? He Cheng narrowed his eyes dangerously. "You won't. If you want your parents to live in guilt for the rest of their lives, just expose me. I won't lose anything. It's just you. When your photo is dug up, it won't be my fault anymore."
What he said is the truth.
He secretly took those photos of her back then. Although he avoided the private parts, he still couldn't show them to others. They were all very private photos. If they became known to all, it would not only affect her reputation but also bring trouble to her family.
Xin Gan wasn't sure if he still had his own photos in hand. He had promised to delete them and had also deleted the photos on his phone, but she wasn't sure if he had made a backup. She couldn't see them either.
When this incident occurred, she was still young and had little social experience. She just wanted to solve the problem as soon as possible and didn't expect that he would have a backup or something like that.
Xin Gan questioned him, "Didn't you delete everything?" Do you still have backups?
He Chengxiao said, "You just realized it?"
"He Cheng, aren't you too shameless?"
If you hadn't stayed away from me, I wouldn't have thought of making a backup.
Xin Gan pointed in the direction of the door and said, "Get out! I don't want to see you."
He Cheng didn't say anything either. He gave Cheng Jiu, who was lying in the hospital bed, a meaningful glance and then left.
Lady He wasn't particularly clear about Cheng Jiu's condition. He Cheng went to the nurse again and asked around, pretending to be a friend of the patient. After the nurse finished speaking, He Cheng laughed even more arrogantly. So that's how it was.
Not long after He Cheng left, Xin Ganqi's hands were shaking. Judging from what He Cheng had said just now, he had indeed left a backup. What should she do? According to He Cheng's personality, he probably wouldn't hand over this backup so easily. Besides, she had no idea how many backups he actually had.
Mainly, she doesn't want her family to know about it, let alone make a fuss and let her grandfather find out. Her grandfather is getting old and doesn't want to hurt his body anymore.
Xin Gan felt somewhat uneasy and looked at Cheng Jiu in a panic. If Cheng Jiu knew, how would he view her?
...
But for now, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is when Cheng Jiu will wake up.
Mrs. Cheng also often came to the hospital. Each time she came, she would tell Xin Gan to go home and rest, saying that Cheng Jiu was in the hospital and was being taken care of by a nurse, and asked her not to worry.
Xin Gan was stubborn and opinionated. No matter what others said, she insisted on staying in the hospital to watch over him.
Mrs. Cheng felt somewhat guilty and said, "If Cheng Jiuzhen doesn't wake up, Xin Gan, the marriage between the two families can be cancelled. We can't hold you back."
Xin Gan shook his head and said, "I can wait for him."
You are still young, Xinggan. The implication is that don't waste your time on Cheng Jiu. No one knows when he will wake up now.
At this moment, Lady He's tone was stiff and she was helpless. Her son was in a coma and she couldn't catch a good girl. If there was really no chance for them to get married, there was really nothing she could do.
Xin Gan pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.
At this moment, she had no mood to think about anything else. Time and again, she hoped that Cheng Jiu would suddenly wake up in the next second, but each time her hope came to nothing.
Her birthday was coming soon, but she had forgotten it herself. Had it not been for her mother's call asking her to come home to celebrate her birthday, she wouldn't have known that today was her birthday.
Xin Gan found some time to go home and celebrate her birthday with her family. She blew out a cake. Xin's father was also there and prepared a gift for her. Xin's father said, "I hope you are happy every day. Dad has no other wishes."
Mother Xin touched her hair.
The bitterness and sweetness are indescribable. A breath is stuck in the throat. This year's birthday has been a mixture of flavors, not a pleasant one.
Grandpa also came. Grandpa didn't know that Cheng Jiu had an accident. The whole family kept it from him, fearing that the old man would be frightened.
Grandpa also prepared a gift, which was a pair of silver bracelets. The style was retro and it was obvious that they were old items. They were quite old.
Grandpa said, "This pair of silver bracelets was worn by your grandma when she was young. I've kept them all along, thinking about when to give them to you as a gift. You're getting married soon, so I'll just give them to you as your dowry."
Xin Gan pretended to be strong and calm, as if nothing had happened. He accepted it and said, "OK."
That night she rested at home and didn't go to the hospital to accompany Cheng Jiu. She cried in her room for a very long time and became depressed.
She never expected that when she went to the hospital to see Cheng Jiu the next day, the doctor said he was awake. A group of doctors and nurses in white coats surrounded the ward to ask about his condition.
Xin Gan stood at the door, thinking that she had been dreaming. Maybe she had cried too hard last night. Her eyes were swollen and her vision was blurry.
The doctor said, "Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere now?" Do you have a headache? Do you remember who you are?
Cheng Jiu still had injuries on his body, so he didn't need a breathing mask anymore. He couldn't sit up, so he could only raise the hospital bed a little so that he could clearly see the doctors and nurses surrounding the bed.
He had just woken up. His face was rather pale and there was still nutrient solution on the back of his hand. He couldn't move around and his mind was in a daze. After thinking for a while, he finally remembered what had happened before he lost consciousness.
His voice was so hoarse that he answered the doctor's question.
I didn't notice Xin Gan standing at the door of the ward either.
She hesitated to go in for a long time, deeply afraid of disturbing the people inside.
Xin Gan felt for the first time that she was so useless.
He woke up. She was very happy and felt a great relief in her heart.
...
In the ward, the doctor said, "You just woke up and your consciousness is not very clear. You might briefly forget some things, but when you fully recover, you will remember them. Don't worry."
Then how long did I sleep?
He/She has been admitted to our hospital for over a month.
So long?
Cheng Jiu fell silent for a moment and then asked, "During the time I was in a coma, did anyone come?"
"Sure, your girlfriend has always been taking care of you closely. But why hasn't she come yet? I remember she's always here with you at this time." "
The doctor scratched his head in puzzlement and then said, "Maybe there's something going on today. I'll tell your family to come over first. You rest now."
The hospital informed the Cheng family to come over. Mrs. Cheng was so overjoyed that she burst into tears. When she arrived at the hospital and confirmed that Cheng Jiu had really woken up, she couldn't help shedding tears on the spot and turned around to wipe them away, fearing to be laughed at.
Cheng Jiu had been awake for a long time and finally sorted out the chaotic thoughts in his mind. He asked, "Where's Xin Gan?"
Just now when he woke up, he asked the doctor how long he had slept. The doctor had already explained it to him, so he didn't ask Mrs. Cheng.
However, I still asked Xin Gan.
He had been in a coma for so long that the doctor had said his girlfriend had been taking care of him all along. He was curious if this girlfriend was sweet and sour.
Mrs. Cheng said, "Oh, right. Xin Gan usually comes to the hospital to see you at this time. Why isn't she here now?"
Doesn't she still know that I'm awake?
Mrs. Cheng said, "I probably don't know. I'll call her to ask."
Cheng Jiu was a bit tired. Lying on the hospital bed, he looked at the white ceiling and slowly closed his eyes.
A month before he fell into a coma, he received information from an informant about Ji Bai's whereabouts. The informant also said that Ji Bai was doing business with a foreign buyer right within the country. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Without hesitation, he rushed there that very night and called a few brothers. But on the way, something happened - a landslide and an accident.
Ji Bai was not caught, and there was also a problem with the informant. He was injured and fell into a coma, suffering heavy losses.
I almost cost myself my life.
He was still too anxious, anxious to catch Ji Bai.
It's really a close call. If it's close, I won't have the life to come back and see Xin Gan.
Thinking of Xin Gan, his expression became solemn and he didn't feel particularly relaxed.
