Chapter 244 - Pandora Box (2/2)

She breathes excessively as if her body is still panicking. She remembers suffocating before everything turned black, and as if she is still at that moment, she needs to breathe to stay alive.

Her hand was squeezing her bedsheet as before she slowly adjusted herself and gained her composure. She tried to recall memories and events before she woke up. However, as if her brain just got a massive knock, she couldn't remember anything but Guan Xian's voice.

His voice and presence felt close beside her ear before she woke up. Therefore, she tried to look around for him.

A fusion of disappointment and confusion showed on her face when she couldn't find him anywhere. She decided to reach the help button on her bed site, waiting for someone to came inside the ward.

An attending nurse came almost an instant after Xia Sha pressed the red button. She was surprised and glad when her eyes met Xia Sha.

”Miss Xia! You are finally awake! We will run the check-up on you after Doctor Lim. Do you have something I could help you with?” the nurse asked, approaching Xia Sha with a sunny shine smile.

Xia Sha shook her head weakly while trying to sit behind her pile of the pillow. But then, she lay back down to her pillow as she found her head is spinning like a roulette.

”You just woke up after six days of being unconscious. You might go through some Post Traumatic Amnesia for a while. Of course, after a while-”

”Six days? What date is today?” Xia Sha cut off the nurse the moment she pulled her oxygen mask.

”It's Saturday, the second of-”

”Oh, no! Hu Che's plan,” Xia Sha hissed as she pressed her temple and closed shut her eyelids.

”Can you call someone from my family? I need to do something immediately,” Xia Sha asked.

She ignored the nurse's suggestion to lay back down and force herself to sit behind the pillow pile. The nurse looks overwhelmed as she doesn't have any other choice but to follow Xia Sha's wish. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look up when the doctor came.

”Don't blame the little nurse. I insist,” Xia Sha said when the doctor began her examination.

”Yes, It's okay. Guan Xian told me how willful you could be,” the doctor smiles as she does her job.

”You know him?” Xia Sha asked with a frown on her face.

The doctor called Guan Xian in such an intimate tone that it made Xia Sha uncomfortable.

”Oh, right, I'm Lim Yun'er. We haven't met before because I'm working at the military hospital. I'm Jian Jun's cousin. Nice to meet you,” the doctor introduced herself as she tried to clear the misunderstanding that showed in Xia Sha's expression.

”Oh, I'm Xia Sha,” Xia Sha answer with a smile.

”I knew, Guan Xian especially asked me to attend you. He had waited for you every day, hoping he would be the first one you see when you woke up. Unfortunately, the wedding planner drags him to choose flower venue on the empty ward across yours,” Lim Yun'er giggles.

Lim Yun'er's story made Xia Sha felt better as she began to relax and breathe normally.

”Yeah, our wedding planner is a little bit, handful,” Xia Sha mumbles before she turns to Lim Yun'er and asks the million-dollar question.

”What happens to me?”

”You got poisoned by cyanide. Guan Xian is still investing the matters. As always, he never takes anything like an accident,” Lim Yun'er stated as she calmly removed the stethoscope from her ears.

”Cyanide?” Xia Sha squinted her eyes.

Lim Yun'er nodded her head, but before Xia Sha could ask further questions, someone barged inside the ward and ran to Xia Sha with a tearful face.

”Sister! Sister, are you okay? I'm so worried about you!” Xia Xiang's voice echoed inside Xia Sha's ear.

Xia Sha furrowed her eyebrow, feeling uncomfortable by Xia Xiang's presence. She didn't remember why does the feeling come back. Xia Sha thought they were in a good term with Xia Xiang already.

What happens?
