Chapter 162 - 162: Unconscious
Shu Pan saw that Gu Shaoting was out of danger, and with He Ming there, she expected Song Can to arrive soon. Therefore, she decided to take Joy home.
He Ming noticed that Joy was feeling down and advised them to head home promptly.
“I’ll take Joy home first, and if there are any updates later, please let me know. After all, it was because of us that Gu Shaoting got into this accident, so I can’t just ignore him. People should have a conscience, especially someone like me who is soft-hearted,” Shu Pan reasoned.
Before going home, Shu Pan took Joy to a pharmacy to buy some medicine, as she was concerned that her fever might spike later in the evening.
Back at home, she quickly cooked some noodles for Joy. Possibly due to her discomfort, Joy didn’t eat much and kept asking about Uncle Gu’s condition.
Well, it seemed that they shared a strong father-daughter bond.
After Joy had finally fallen asleep, Shu Pan could finally take a break. She then called He Ming.
“Mr. He, how’s the situation?” Shu Pan inquired.
“Sis-in-law, just call me He Ming. We do know each other, no need to be so formal. The doctor said he woke up briefly but is unconscious again,” He Ming corrected her, “Oh, and by the way, the doctor said he woke up briefly but is unconscious again.”
“Okay, thank you for your help. Tomorrow, I’ll have my friend look after Joy, and I’ll come to the hospital,” Shu Pan requested.
Thank goodness it was the weekend. Shu Pan could rely on Xiaomeng to look after Joy.
“Sure, no problem. You should get some rest too,” He Ming hung up the phone. He immediately called Xiaomeng.
“Xiaomeng, what are you up to?” He Ming felt like they had been apart for an eternity.
“Just finished my yoga session and now relaxing,” Xiaomeng replied lazily. Stretching had made her feel much better.
She had gradually learned to enjoy life, to live for herself. Women should always take care of themselves and strive to be elegant.
“Have you eaten? I won’t be able to come over today; a friend of mine was in a car accident,” Gu Shaoting informed Xiaomeng about his whereabouts.
“It’s fine. You go about your business. Take care,” Xiaomeng replied nonchalantly. She had grown more independent, and life experiences had changed her.
When He Ming heard her words, he was slightly disappointed. It seemed that it was difficult to get close to Ye Xiaomeng’s heart. She was too guarded, as if she had built a high wall.
He Ming couldn’t help but feel a sense of disappointment upon hearing her words. It seemed challenging to get close to Xiaomeng’s heart. She had built a high inner wall.
“Alright then, we’ll talk again tomorrow,” He Ming reluctantly hung up the phone.
As He Ming was abolit to get lip to check the intensive care unit’s entrance.
Song Can arrived.
When she received the news, it felt as if her world had fallen apart. She hurried to the hospital.
“He Ming, what happened? How could he be in an accident?” Song Can asked in an agitated manner upon seeing He Ming.
“I don’t have all the details yet, but the doctor said he’s out of danger now. We’ll have to wait until he wakes up for further examinations,” He Ming consoled her, seeing how nervous and worried she was.
“Did you see the person who caused the accident?” Song Can suddenly remembered.
He Ming shook his head. ‘We don’t know if there were any surveillance
cameras at the accident location. We haven’t had a chance to check.”
“It’s just one misfortune after another. There’s not a single thing to make us happy,” Song Can said, feeling that she had aged significantly.
Looking through the glass door into the intensive care unit, Song Can saw Gu Shaoting lying motionless, appearing to be asleep. The only sounds were the machines beeping beside him. Song Can couldn’t hold back her tears..
