Chapter 163 - 163: Who Am I (1)
“Auntie, you should go back home first. I’ll stay here tonight. You can rest assured; Shaoting will be fine,” He Ming persuaded.
“Alright then, I’ll leave later. Thank you,” Song Can knew there was no use in staying.
The next day, Shu Pan dropped Joy off at Ye Xiaomeng’s place.
“Xiaomeng, can you please look after Joy for me? I need to visit someone in the hospital,” Shu Pan reluctantly requested, thankful that Xiaomeng was available.
“No problem, I’m more than happy to help. But who are you going to see?” Xiaomeng asked nonchalantly, thinking that Shu Pan didn’t know anyone in Bin City.
“It’s Gu Shaoting. He was in a car accident yesterday,” Shu Pan replied.
“Why do you care about him? Are you Virgin Mary, or are you competing for the title of ‘Best Ex-Wife’?” Xiaomeng sarcastically remarked, still furious about what Gu Shaoting had done before.
“He got hit trying to save Joy and me. I can’t just ignore him,” Shu Pan smiled wryly, understanding that Xiaomeng was defending her.
It’s great to have such a best friend; what more could one ask for in life?
“He got what he deserved… it’s his karma, ” Xiaomeng was still indignant.
“Xiaomeng…” Shu Pan stopped her from saying anything more hurtful.
“Alright, soft-hearted people are easy to take advantage of, and you’re one of them,” Xiaomeng shook her head, somewhat disappointed.
“I won’t be taken advantage of. Don’t worry. Thank you for your help. I’ll go now, and I’ll be back soon,” Shu Pan bid farewell to Joy and headed to the hospital.
Before arriving at the hospital, Shu Pan brought congee and eggs for breakfast for He Ming.
When she arrived, He Ming was sitting in a chair outside the intensive care unit. His hair was disheveled, and there were red lines in his eyes from staying up all night. He looked quite exhausted.
“Thanks,” He Ming accepted the breakfast and hungrily ate. After staying up all night, he was truly tired.
“What did the doctor say? Has he woken up yet?” Shu Pan was truly worried about hearing bad news.
“The doctor said everything is stable. He’ll probably wake up today,” He Ming’s words were like a soothing balm for her.
Shu Pan’s heart settled a bit. If something were to happen to Gu Shaoting, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
“That’s good,” Shu Pan also took a seat on the resting chair.
Suddenly, the door to the intensive care unit opened, and a doctor came out.
“Are you the family members of Gu Shaoting? You can go in and see him now; we’ll conduct a detailed examination later,” the doctor said after removing his mask.
“We’re here. What’s the situation?” He Ming and Shu Pan approached.
“The patient has regained consciousness. You can go in and see him now. We’ll conduct a detailed examination later,” the doctor’s words filled them with joy.
He Ming immediately shared this good news with Song Can.
They entered the room and saw Gu Shaoting, dressed in a hospital gown, sitting on the bed. The warm sunlight streamed through the window, casting a golden glow on his hair. However, he had a bewildered expression and seemed somewhat different from his usual self.
“Shaoting, how are you feeling? Do you have any discomfort?” He Ming walked up to the bed and asked Gu Shaoting first.
Shu Pan entered as well and placed Gu Shaoting’s personal belongings on the bedside table.
Gu Shaoting gazed at the two newcomers with confusion, unsure of who they were.
“Who are you? Who am I?” Gu Shaoting asked innocently.
“Come on, buddy, don’t mess around. Do you think this is a TV drama?” He
Ming patted his shoulder and said with a smile..
