Chapter 523 - 510
Yu Sangwan didn’t tell the An Family about returning to school.
It’s mainly because explaining it would be troublesome. She and Lu Jinxuan are mutually in love, but outsiders might not see it that way. She doesn’t want to hear any gossip, nor does she want to cause trouble for Lu Jinxuan.
Compared to working, school is naturally a bit more relaxed.
Yu Sangwan still went to the hospital every day, and Lu Jinxuan was very unhappy about this.
"Do you have to take care of that man? Aren’t there nurses in the hospital?" Lu Jinxuan’s face was green when he said this.
Yu Sangwan shook her head, "I can’t just not go. He’s in this situation because of me..."
"So what?" Lu Jinxuan interrupted her anxiously, his eyebrows knitted together, "Does my woman have to serve him?"
Seeing he was angry, Yu Sangwan didn’t speak, quietly waiting for him to calm down.
But Lu Jinxuan couldn’t calm down at all. Watching her pack her things to leave, he reached out and grabbed the strap of her bag, "Where are you going?"
"..." Yu Sangwan widened her eyes, blinking at him eagerly.
Her eyes were beautiful, bright and sparkly, especially when she purposely acted cute... Lu Jinxuan couldn’t stand looking at her, so he turned his gaze away with a hardened heart. He silently grumbled to himself, my girlfriend is too good at being cute... what should I do?
"Jinxuan."
Yu Sangwan raised her hand, twirling his tie with her fingers, lying completely on him.
Lu Jinxuan wore a stern face, "Being cute won’t work!"
"Oh." Yu Sangwan pouted in annoyance, "You think I’m not cute."
"..." Lu Jinxuan stared blankly. Is that what he meant?
"Fine!" Yu Sangwan was angry and poked his chest with her finger, "What do you mean? Do you think I’m not cute now? Tell me, who’s cute? Who, who, who?"
Lu Jinxuan had no choice but to bow his head and bite her finger, "I was wrong, I’ll do whatever you want, isn’t that enough?"
"..." Yu Sangwan held back a laugh. Actually, she thought her Lu was the cutest. "Then I’ll go now!"
Lu Jinxuan hooked her finger, "You have to come here to sleep tonight."
He looked very serious, this is his bottom line... it can’t get any lower!
Yu Sangwan felt a bit troubled, "But how should I explain this to the An Family?"
"You can say you’re in the hospital with An Zihao." Lu Jinxuan casually said, and then got angry at his own words.
Pointing at Yu Sangwan, "I’m telling you, I’m even unhappy just saying it! So, use it as a lie if you must... but you have to come back at night to sleep with me!"
"Ugh." Yu Sangwan pouted. He said it himself, whose face is he pulling now?
Lu Jinxuan looked dreary, "Did you hear me?"
"Yes, I heard!" Yu Sangwan smiled, finding Lu more adorable than ever.
Lu Jinxuan saw her off, and Yu Sangwan couldn’t help but lift her arms to hug him, "Mengmeng?"
"?" Lu Jinxuan was surprised, "What?"
"You’re so cute!" Yu Sangwan tiptoed and kissed him on the lips, "Mengmeng, Lu Mengmeng, hehe..."
Daring to tease Lu Jinxuan like this, who else could it be in the world besides her? The killer part was Lu Jinxuan didn’t mind it, but was instead proud, speaking in a doting tone, "Such a mischievous, silly nickname..."
...
According to Lu Jinxuan’s ’rules,’ Yu Sangwan first went to the hospital to see An Zihao.
She was in a good mood, even An Zihao noticed, "Wanwan, something good happened recently?"
"Uh?" Yu Sangwan was taken aback, shook her head, "No! I feel happy because your health is improving!"
While speaking, the hospital room door was pushed open, and the attending doctor walked in.
"Doctor." Yu Sangwan quickly stood up.
The doctor nodded, opened An Zihao’s medical records and looked through them, "Mr. An, your condition is now recovering. Currently, our hospital is cooperating with a specialized rehabilitation center in the Holy City, which will offer the best treatment plans and conditions... Would you be willing to give it a try?"
"This..." An Zihao hesitated, "What does it mean?"
Yu Sangwan understood better than him, "Doctor, do you mean... there’s a possibility he can recover?"
"Not 100% certain," the doctor smiled, "but that institution is indeed top-notch. Many patients declared lifelong paralyzed have walked out from there."
Hearing such news, how could An Zihao not be excited?
"Is, is this true?" Yu Sangwan excitedly covered her mouth.
The doctor nodded, "It’s true."
"But..." An Zihao had concerns, "Such an institution, the treatment costs must be expensive, right?"
Yu Sangwan looked at the doctor, this was also her concern.
The doctor shook his head, "Congratulations, Mr. An... You’ve caught just the right time with our hospital’s cooperation with this institution. They’re very interested in your case, so... if you sign to agree to cooperate with the treatment, they will cover all treatment costs."
Is there really such a good thing?
An Zihao could hardly believe what he heard, excitedly grabbed Yu Sangwan’s hand, "Wanwan! Did you hear that? I’m saved!"
"Yes, I heard!" Yu Sangwan was genuinely happy for him.
"Wanwan, once I recover, I can help you take care of this family, so you won’t have to work so hard!"
Listening to An Zihao’s words, Yu Sangwan felt a sense of unease in her heart... An Zihao is so cheerful now, perhaps it’s best to tell him later! She and he really have no way to spend a lifetime together; in her heart... he isn’t there at all!
After leaving An Zihao’s ward, Yu Sangwan went to the ICU to visit her father.
Yu Zhiyuan was still in a coma, and all his bodily functions were deteriorating.
During visiting hours, when Yu Sangwan entered, she saw an unfamiliar doctor by the bedside.
"Miss Yu." The attending doctor approached and explained, "This is an expert from Holy City, from today on, he will be in charge of Mr. Yu’s case."
"..." Yu Sangwan was stunned, such a coincidence? Within one day, this and An Zihao’s side... both are connected to Holy City. After thinking slightly, Yu Sangwan knew what it was all about—it was him.
Upon leaving the ICU, Yu Sangwan immediately called Lu Jinxuan.
"Hello."
Upon hearing Lu Jinxuan’s deep voice, Yu Sangwan’s heart was drenched, "Where are you?"
"At home, waiting for you to return... be mindful of the time; it’s getting late!"
Yu Sangwan sniffled, what should she do when she didn’t want to do anything but act spoiled?
"Hmm... someone doesn’t want to go back alone."
"..." There was a two-second pause, but Lu Jinxuan grasped the situation well, "I’ll come to pick you up; you don’t have to take a single step on your own."
"Mm." Yu Sangwan murmured softly, "I’ll be sitting by the entrance of the surgical building waiting for you."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Yu Sangwan finally smiled... The sweetness Lu Jinxuan spread began to slowly spread across the tip of her heart, being incredibly sweet.
The weather gradually cooled down, and now the daylight hours weren’t as long.
Yu Sangwan casually sat down on the steps, bored, and pulled out her phone to play a little. Yet, in her view appeared a familiar figure emerging from inside.
Although the person wore a hat and sunglasses, and kept her head low, Yu Sangwan recognized her instantly... Wasn’t this Mrs. Gong?
Mrs. Gong seemed to be crying, raising her hand to wipe the corner of her eye from time to time.
What’s going on? Isn’t Mrs. Gong from Holy City? What is she doing here? Does she have friends in Donghua? And they’re still hospitalized.
Yu Sangwan knew her, but wasn’t sure whether to greet her or not.
Mrs. Gong didn’t see her and walked out alone. She suddenly stopped by the artificial lake. Unable to hide her inner sorrow, she covered her face and cried aloud... her sobs were quite loud.
"Uh..." Yu Sangwan hesitated, watching her trembling shoulders, and finally walked over.
She took out a tissue from her bag and handed it to Mrs. Gong, "Mrs. Gong..."
Mrs. Gong didn’t expect anyone, looked bewildered, and was stunned upon seeing Yu Sangwan, "It’s you?"
"Yes." Yu Sangwan nodded, "You’re so sad... is a friend hospitalized?"
Mrs. Gong took the tissue but didn’t use it, sighed deeply, "Ah..."
Yu Sangwan tugged at the corners of her mouth, softly advising, "Please don’t be too sad, hospitals exist because there’s a need... none of us can stop our family or friends from being subjected to life’s natural course of birth, aging, illness, and death..."
Suddenly, Mrs. Gong took off her sunglasses and stared at Yu Sangwan. She didn’t say anything, just stared, making Yu Sangwan feel quite uneasy.
"Mrs. Gong, I... is something wrong?"
Mrs. Gong’s expression shifted, "I remember... your name is Yu Sangwan?"
"Uh, yes!" Yu Sangwan nodded, puzzled, "What’s going on?"
Mrs. Gong murmured, "With the surname Yu..."
She suddenly grabbed Yu Sangwan’s hand, "Why are you in the hospital? Is a family member or friend here?"
Her grip was a bit strong, causing pain to Yu Sangwan. "Mrs. Gong, I... both my father and friends are in the hospital..."
"Father!" Mrs. Gong’s face paled, her grip becoming even stronger. "No, impossible... it can’t be..."
Yu Sangwan winced in pain, furrowing her brows, "Mrs. Gong, you... it hurts!"
"Ah..." Mrs. Gong came to her senses, hurriedly letting go but continued observing her intently, "Your, your father, why is he hospitalized?"
Yu Sangwan, full of doubt, still spoke truthfully, "My father had a car accident seven years ago; he’s been in the hospital ever since, and recently another incident occurred, leaving him in the ICU... still hasn’t woken up."
"Ah..." Mrs. Gong’s face lost all color, her gaze towards Yu Sangwan growing increasingly odd, "You, you..."
Yu Sangwan was utterly confused; what was going on?
"Ah..." Mrs. Gong breathed out deeply, "Poor... child."
Yu Sangwan wanted to say something more, but her phone was already vibrating in her pocket; it must be Lu Jinxuan. She hadn’t waited obediently on the stairs, and he’d surely be angry in a moment!
"Well then, Mrs. Gong, I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving!"
Mrs. Gong gazed at her, seeming quite reluctant, "Leaving so soon?"
"Hm?" Yu Sangwan nodded uneasily, "Yeah... goodbye, Mrs. Gong."
Turning away, Yu Sangwan still felt puzzled... why did Mrs. Gong look at her in such a strange way?
