Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Within a pristine white hospital room was Xu Yao, leaning against Happy’s bed as quietly as a baby with her weak and frail body. Her fingers were wrapped tightly around Happy’s arm, and there were still clear tears on her face, which was scrunched up with a scowl.
Happy had already opened his eyes for a while.
Creak.
A nurse came over for a ward round, and when she opened the door, she saw the comatose patient who was rumored to have been in coma for more than a year and suddenly woke up open his eyes. He was also staring at the girl leaning against his bed with a clear mind. The nurse’s expression instantly became very interesting.
“Doc—”
The nurse was just about to open her mouth and shout, but the boy on the bed immediately placed a finger on his lips and hushed her. She forcefully swallowed her words.
If a normal patient laid comatose for a prolonged period of time, their weakened bodies and eyes will not be able to deliver any sort of body language.
But the female nurse was able to sense a great gentleness and a faint, awe-inspiring might that allowed no argument from the eyes of the boy named Chen Kaixin.
It was difficult for her to imagine just how a patient with such a weak body will have such a gentle and awe-inspiring gaze. He was just like her hospital director…
But he was also much younger and energetic than her hospital director.
“Come here.”
The female nurse saw the boy on the bed nod at her slightly through great effort, and the meaning in his eyes was very clear.
She pointed at herself before she approached on tip toes.
Fortunately, the boy’s eyes were rather gentle and harmless. Besides, his gaze on Xu Yao had been filled with tender affection and regret, otherwise, the nurse will definitely not be filled with so much compassion that she will be commanded by a patient whose mind was probably not even clear.
“Based on what she said, is it true that I’ve been in coma for a long time?” Happy was a little unable to get used to his own voice. It was hoarse and a little grating to the ears.
The nurse answered with an exaggerated and excited expression, “Yeah. You’ve been in coma for about one year and a half. At that time, the doctor said that you might not be able to wake up ever again. Look at the calendar.”
The nurse was worried that Happy will not believe her, and she brought out the calendar by the side for him to look.
Then, the nurse seemed to know that time will be of a great shock to the patient. Her gaze landed on Xu Yao, who was still asleep and dreaming. “This girl has been visiting you and taking care of you for a few days every month to make sure that you’re alright. I heard that she even kept this a secret from your parents and took care of you alone, claiming that she was trying to atone for her sins. But how could such a good girl do anything wrong? She even brought you to the hospital alone just now, and she was crying so miserably.”
The nurse sized up Happy and Xu Yao with a skeptical but compassionate gaze.
Happy said nothing. His gaze became even gentler, and he forced himself to smile. “It has nothing to do with her. I was in a bad mood at that time, and I drank some wine before I fell. Now, since I woke up, could you help me get a doctor to check on me? Also, please get a blanket over her so that she can sleep peacefully for a little while longer.”
“Got it.” The nurse was clearly a person who wore her heart on her sleeve. She made a gesture showing that she understood what Happy said before she turned around and ran out of the room with light footsteps.
Once the female nurse left, Happy smoothed out his thoughts slightly.
There were plenty of things in his life that might have been a misunderstanding.
Aside from the various methods Blood Robes and Class One Hall used to seize the top eight spots on World of Martial Arts, Xu Yao might have been used by Blood Robes in her grief when her mother passed away and a piece of information that she did not receive in time. Thus, she did something she regretted.
Even though Happy believed that he was the greatest victim in this whole misunderstanding.
He lost everything out of the blue, along with one year and a half of time, as well as his health.
But since Xu Yao used her frail shoulders to take up the full burden of taking care of him for one year and a half, no matter how cold that wall of ice had been around his heart at that time, there was no way it will not melt.
The door to his room was soon pushed open tentatively. A few young nurses and a few elderly doctors in white coats moved in quietly.
“The doctors are here.”
Those old doctors surrounded the bed to observe Happy’s condition.
Based on his blood pressure, skin color, breathing, heart beat, pupil dilation, and after they examined him from top to bottom, they were surprised and amazed.
“Who said that the current youngsters cannot create miracles?”
“She managed to take care of her comatose boyfriend for one year and a half until she woke up. This alone is a miracle.”
The elderly doctors were extremely excited and worked up. They were grinning so much that it was as if they were celebrating the new year.
Happy knew his condition very well, and he asked softly, “Doctors, how long will it take before I can recover?”
“Hmm… Honestly, your girlfriend has been taking care of you well. Based on your current situation, within a month, you should be able to walk normally on the ground, and around two to three months later, you will be able to recover to your normal state.”
The elderly doctor who answered Happy had clearly heard from the female nurse from before, and when he spoke to Happy, he was very careful with the volume of his voice, because he was afraid of waking up Xu Yao from her sleep. His attitude toward Happy was also pretty good. “Take good care of yourself, son. Don’t be too obsessed with other things. Your body and your lover are the most important things to you.”
“I know. Thank you, doctor.”
A group of female nurses stood at the entrance with the nurse from before, and they were gesturing at Happy and Xu Yao.
“It’s true. I didn’t think he was anything when he was comatose, but now that I look at him, he does give off the feeling of the frog prince.”
“Hush. Be quiet.”
“Now that the prince is awake, he can live happily after with the princess. Hehe…”
