Chapter 268 - Strange Family (1/2)

"Good morning, Mr. Patient!" Yang Ziyi greeted Wu Wang cheerily. But he responded in a nonchalant way. Her lips twitched at his indifferent look and she decided to focus on her job of treating him.

The private hospital room was spacious but extremely silent with only the sound of machines lingering in the air. It was a serene atmosphere for a patient.

But...

Suddenly, this tranquility was disturbed when the door of the room was pushed open and a wave of people came running inside.

"Wang!" Fan Bingbing ran up to her son's side and touched his pale face feeling heartbroken.

"You! Young man, look at how much exhausted you seem in a couple of days," this voice belonged to Sun Ju who came along with Lin Shen.

"Bro, you look so sickly," his sister Wu Xia also have tagged along and was now bawling her eyes out looking at her brother's condition.

"I'm absolutely fine. Stop overreacting!" Wu Wang didn't know how to deal with these dramatic ladies at all. So, he turned to his friends for help. "Shen, please calm your fiance and Jian, could you please hold my mother?" Then his gaze shifted to his little sister as he went on, "And you! Stop crying, I'm not dead yet!"

His last remark earned him a thrashing from his mother and even Sun Ju joined in. "Could you ladies refrain being so violent with a patient?" Wu Wang complained like a victim.

"Then stop spouting nonsense!" Sun Ju warned him with a glare.

"Exactly! I have only one son and you're still cursing yourself?" Fan Bingbing didn't seem easygoing at all for the time being.

"Who cursed whom?" Hearing the soft pleasant voice, everyone turned to look at Xu Mey who was gazing curiously at everyone while Ye Jie was silently following behind her.

"Little Mey, look this brother of yours was cursing himself," Fan Bingbing didn't hold back at all. She knew the only person Wu Wang would listen to was Xu Mey.

Sure enough, Xu Mey narrowed her eyes at Wu Wang and glared at him dangerously taking slow steps towards his bed. "Wang Ge, how dare you dictate your own life? Did we allow you to die? No, we did not! Don't forget, your life is not just yours. We all are a part of it." Wu Wang stayed quiet and listened to her lecture with a ghostly smile on his lips. He didn't mind anything Xu Mey said.

We all get used to changes that come with time but there still remains hope in us that some things could stay the same forever. With everything changing in his life, Wu Wang was more than just content to know that no matter what, his friends and family were standing by his side with the same feelings they once had for him.

After the lecturing was done, Wu Wang's mother remembered something and said, "Oh, right! I brought you some porridge." She opened the lunch box she had brought.

"Auntie, Wang doesn't like porridge. How can you not know that being his mother and all?" Sun Ju gave Fan Bingbing an odd look.
