Chapter 148 Awakening


<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>


“I went to see Bai Shuyun.”

Jian Chi replaced the floppy flowers in the vase with a bunch of lilies that he bought when he came back, and sat beside Ji Huaisi’s bed and whispered. When he passed by, the flower shop clerk told him that he had sold out all the gardenias, but there were still many lilies of the same whiteness. Jian Chi thought that Ji Huaisi should like it, so he bought it. When Shen Shuting saw it, Jian Chi said that he bought it for himself. He didn’t know if he believed it or not. He didn’t look at the flowers in his arms the entire way.

“I originally wanted to tell you after you woke up, but it should take a long time for you to wake up and to recover your health. By that time, university may be about to start.”

Looking at Ji Huaisi, who was in a coma and quiet, he looked sideways. Jian Chi seldom spoke his heart’s thoughts like this now. Sometimes he will hold Ji Huaisi’s hand, or lean on a chair and wait quietly. He was also criticized a few times by the doctor who accidentally bumped into him, but after Jian Chi apologized, he would still sneak over the next day. He hoped that Ji Huaisi would see him first when he woke up.

This time, Jian Chi couldn’t hold back his emotions.

“I won’t repeat what he said. You will be angry when you hear it. Although you can’t hear anything now, but…” Jian Chi paused for a while, “I didn’t expect him to sincerely apologize. It’s a pity that there was not even a trace of shame. Mr. Bai intends to send him abroad. In the final analysis, they are still a family. They can’t watch Bai Shuyun go to jail, not to mention that the Bai family has such strength. Waiting for Bai Shuyun to go abroad…”

Jian Chi didn’t say any more, Ji Huaisi was still in a coma, it’s better not to listen to too many dark topics.

“Let’s not talk about him, hating him wastes our energy, it’s not worth it.”

This was Jian Chi’s most common way to comfort himself, but this time it was not comfort, he really thought so. Before going, he thought about the mood he might have when he saw Bai Shuyun. Hate? Disgust? Resentment? But when he saw him for real, Jian Chi only felt a hint of disgust, and was amused by Bai Shuyun’s last words. Walking out of the door of the Bai house, all emotions were sealed behind him. It’s not worth wasting one’s emotions for someone like Bai Shuyun.

“In the car at the time, you told me that Bai Xiyu was a very selfish person. I shouldn’t have refuted you. You can see much better than me,” Jian Chi said softly, subconsciously reluctant to disturb Ji Huaisi, even if he knew that this was superfluous, “How did you see it? You must tell me when you wake up, and teach me your way.”

Jian Chi looked at the electronic clock by the bed, it would be ten o’clock in the evening in seven minutes. He had to go back before 10:30, otherHuaisi he might run into the nurse who was doing the rounds and get taught a lesson. Holding Ji Huaisi’s hand beside the bed, Jian Chi asked.

“It’s been three weeks, when are you going to wake up?” 

The doctor told him that Ji Huaisi was out of danger, and his vital signs had been improving steadily, but the day-to-day waiting could not quell Jian Chan’s fear. Not being able to see Ji Huaisi open his eyes, there was always a shaky voice in his heart, unable to forget the worst possibility.

“At that time, you asked me in the car if we could be together, I haven’t had time to answer. This matter is not over yet. Don’t you want to hear the answer?”

Jian Chi felt Ji Huaisi’s fingers move under his palm, as subtle as an illusion.

After a few seconds of blankness, Jian Chi held Ji Huaisi’s hand tightly, and his throat couldn’t stop: “If you don’t wake up again, I won’t tell you the answer. If you miss this opportunity, you won’t have a chance.”

Ji Huaisi’s movements were bigger than before, Jian Chi felt that he should say something stimulating, and his brain was running fast, “If you don’t answer, I’ll take it as your acceptance, and I’ll leave with Shao Hang tomorrow. I will leave you here alone.”

“…with whom?”

A weak voice rang out from under the oxygen mask, and Jian Chi almost thought he was hallucinating until he looked into Ji Huaisi’s open eyes then he quickly changed his words: “with you.”

Ji Huaisi seemed to want to laugh, but unfortunately he didn’t have enough strength. Jian Chi kept talking about calling the doctor and kept on pressing the button, multiple times. Ji Huaisi took all Jian Chi’s busy movements into his eyes, and when Jian Chi looked over, he asked softly, “How long have I been in a coma?”

Jian Chi just waited for the doctor to come over quickly, and clenched Ji Huaisi’s hand tightly, “It’s been three weeks.”

“It’s been only three weeks.”

“What do you mean by ‘only’? It’s almost a month,” Jian Chi was lightly touched by him. The tone made his eyes a little sour, “Are you going to sleep for another month?”

Ji Huaisi said slowly: “I mean, it’s only been three weeks, and you forgot the flowers I liked.”

Jian Chi followed him to look at lily by the bed, the tears that had just emerged were held back, and when he turned back to the familiar but shallow smile in the eyes of Ji Huaisi, he couldn’t help laughing out, his heart was filled with surging heat, full to the brim.

“I told you that the gardenias were sold out, but you heard the last sentence that I want to go with Shao Hang.”

“Aren’t you going with me?”

Ji Huaisi said, holding Jian Chi’s hand back.

At eleven o’clock in the middle of the night, the hospital was bright all night, and Ji Huaisi fell asleep not long after waking up, but this time the shaky voice in Jian Chi’s heart disappeared completely.

Ji Huaisi was able to sit up and talk to the doctor normally the next day after waking up, but it took a while for his legs to get used to being in bed for a long time and before he could try to get out of bed. Jian Chi’s injury had almost recovered, and the doctor looked at his examination report and told him that he could be cleaned up and discharged from the hospital in three days. Jian Chi, who was eager to be discharged from the hospital, didn’t want to leave now. If he leaves, Ji Huaisi will be alone.

Jian Chi didn’t know whether Ji Huaisi’s family knew about the accident. Thinking of the bouquet of flowers by Ji Huaisi’s bed, Jian Chi guessed that they might know. But before he could continue to guess the reason why they didn’t come to visit Ji Huaisi, Jian Chi saw a strange woman sitting beside the bed when he pushed open Ji Huaisi’s ward.

Hearing the sound, Ji Huaisi and her looked over at the same time.

Jian Chi was stunned for a moment. Anyone who saw a superstar on the TV screen appearing in reality would not have a very decent reaction. Seeing Du Wan smiling at him, Jian Chi hurriedly closed the door, stood up straight, and said nervously, “Hello, Auntie.”

Ji Huaisi laughed at his reaction, and said to Du Wan, “I said he would come in a while.”

Du Wan’s appearance seemed no different from when she retired from the music scene twenty years ago, there was an elegant and demure temperament. Not impatient, with slender and soft eyebrows, there was almost no fine line. Sitting with Ji Huaisi, if one said that they were sisters and brothers, he would not suspect it at all. Du Wan’s lips with lip gloss outlined a gentle arc, “Are you Jian Chi?”

Jian Chi felt that this scene was amazing, Ji Huaisi’s eyes and the arc of his smile were very similar to Du Wan. When Du Wan smiled, Jian Chi felt an unspeakable kindness and nodded, “I came to see Ji Huaisi.”

“Thank you for taking care of him. When the accident happened, his father and I were abroad for an important meeting. There was no way to get back in time, so I had to ask my friends here to help take care of Huaisi and report his situation to us at any time,” Du Wan said, “During Huaisi’s coma, I knew that you had been taking care of him, I don’t know how to thank you, Jian Chi.” 

The more Jian Chi listened, the more ashamed he felt. He had a part in implicating Ji Huaisi in this car accident. He just did what he wanted to do in his heart, “This is what I should do.”

“Mom, didn’t you just say you were going back?” Ji Huaisi said at this time.

Du Wan got up with the bag, turned around and smiled, “I won’t beat around the bush now. Okay, you and Jian Chi have a good chat, I won’t disturb you, remember to listen to the doctor’s words and take care of your injuries, and tell me what you want to eat. I asked Aunt Zhang to prepare it at home and bring it to you.”

“Understood.” 

This time, Jian Chi was not as stunned as before, but opened the door and sent Du Wan to the door. Du Wan didn’t leave in a hurry, but stopped abruptly, turned her head and said softly to Jian Chi: “Nothing is expected of others. I know you protected Huaisi, but fortunately he also protected you, you don’t need to feel that this thank you is too heavy. Seeing him so happy now, as a mother, I am also very happy.”

Without waiting for Jian Chi’s answer, Du Wan waved her hand lightly and walked away. Jian Chi looked at her back, vaguely afraid to guess – he felt that Du Wan noticed something.

Back in the ward, Ji Huaisi was looking down at an envelope in his hand. Hearing Jian Chi’s return, he raised his head and smiled, “Did she say anything to you?”

Jian Chi didn’t hide it, “Well, Auntie, she told me not to feel sorry, she was very happy.”

“She had a good temper, so don’t be nervous, but it’s my fault that I didn’t tell you in advance.” Ji Huaisi’s words made Jian Chi feel even more strange, as if it wasn’t an accident just now, a premeditated meeting. Jian Chi didn’t know how to answer. He looked at the envelope in his hand, and changed the subject: “Is this what Auntie gave you just now?”

Ji Huaisi stopped rubbing and paused, “Yes.”

When Jian Chi saw that Ji Huaisi didn’t want to speak very much, he swallowed the next sentence of ‘what’s in it’. Ji Huaisi didn’t know whether he noticed his thoughts, but he put the envelope lightly aside, looked into Jian Chi’s puzzled eyes, and said, “The Bai family intends to acknowledge Bai Xiyu.”
