Chapter 207

Whenever Lin Mo thought about his younger sister, his heart couldn’t help but ache.

Although Lin Siyu’s body had no major issues and was healthy, her consciousness was still the same as before. She didn’t recognize people and was always absent-minded, as if she had lost her soul.

Since Zhang Li asked about it, Lin Mo didn’t hide anything and told him the situation as it was.

Song Xuyan helped explain from the side, “Mr. Lin, and Mr. Zhang, please rest assured, I have also been closely monitoring Miss Lin’s re-examinations. Her brain has not suffered any organic damage, and recovery should just be a matter of time.”

“Perhaps it requires a certain trigger, but you can rest assured that there will be no impact on her lifespan or other aspects.”

A trigger?

This was a word Lin Mo had heard many times regarding Lin Siyu.

After thinking for a moment, he frowned and pressed on, “Director Song, from your past experience, what is this trigger usually like?”

After contemplating, Song Xuyan replied, “Mr. Lin, it’s really hard to say because it varies from person to person. Some people need to see a familiar environment, others need to see their beloved partner. I’ve even seen a rather unusual patient, who, upon seeing a stack of money, recovered immediately.”

After hearing Song Xuyan’s explanation, Lin Mo nodded and then said, “Since that’s the case, please trouble Director Song to select some of the more representative cases from previous records and send them to me.”

Now that his family’s issues were mostly resolved, Lin Mo’s next focus was certainly on helping Lin Siyu wake up from that mysterious hysteria.

With that, everything would be perfectly resolved.

“Of course, there’s no problem. I’ll go prepare them right away and send them all to your WeChat, Mr. Lin,” Song Xuyan agreed very readily.

Zhang Li, who was in the hospital bed, looked at Song Xuyan and then at Lin Mo. He had heard from Lin Siyu that their family was very ordinary, all migrant workers, with Lin Mo being a simple laborer. But now, something didn’t seem right. A public hospital director was treating him so politely, and this ward also seemed extraordinary, like one of those special care wards that according to rumors, only the well-connected could stay in!

Such treatment, how could that belong to an ordinary family, how could it be possible for a plain laborer?

Although he was puzzled, now clearly wasn’t the time to discuss this. After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Li spoke, “Brother, I want to be discharged. Also, would you calculate the hospital fees for this period, and… I’ll write you an IOU. I’ll pay it back slowly once I earn enough money.”

“I’ve asked Head Nurse Xu and Director Song before, but they just told me to focus on my recovery and would never tell me how much it costs per day.”

“But… I can tell that staying in a ward like this must cost a lot, right?”

Zhang Li didn’t know much about special care wards, but he wasn’t unfamiliar with hospitals.

The service here was so good it was almost outrageous. Furthermore, Zhang Li had heard from others that staying in such a ward not only required strong connections but also cost a substantial amount of money.

Although he didn’t know where Lin Mo got so much money from, he felt it was necessary to pay back someone who was not his relative.

Lin Mo smiled and replied, “That’s not necessary. Insurance has covered everything; you don’t need to spend money. Your willingness is enough; just focus on your recovery.”

“Before coming, I had already talked to Director Song. You’ll be able to leave the hospital in a couple of days, and then we’ll go home together for the New Year.”

“By the way, do you have any other relatives? During the time you were unconscious, I went to the police station to inquire about your family, but I couldn’t get in touch with any relatives. If there’s anyone you want to see now, I can help you contact them.”

Relatives?

At the mention of that word, Zhang Li’s expression dimmed, and after shaking his head, he said, “No need, brother. I don’t really have relatives; I’ve been on my own pretty much from childhood.”

Oh…

Seeing the look on Zhang Li’s face, Lin Mo felt quite sad.

Even when his own family had nothing, they had each other, working together, creating warm and comforting days.

Indeed, no matter how poor or tough life got, if you looked down, you could always find someone in a worse situation.

Lin Mo sighed and comforted him, “Alright, let’s not talk about these unhappy things. Now that you’re awake, I’m relieved. I’ve got a little more to take care of, and in a couple of days, when you can be discharged, I’ll come pick you up, and we’ll go home for the New Year.”

Remembering how Lin Siyu often stared blankly at the unconscious Zhang Li just after she woke up, he said with a smile, “Maybe after seeing you, little sis might wake up.”

“I’m off; just stay there, no need to see me out.”

“Brother, take care, and be safe on the road.”

“Got it.”

“Goodbye, brother.”

“Remember to rest well and take care of yourself!”

“Alright, brother!”

…..

After Lin Mo left the ward, Song Xuyan also followed him out.

As they walked toward the elevator, Song Xuyan said solicitously, “Mr. Lin, I’ve noticed that since you came upstairs, you’ve touched your lower back three times and furrowed your brow six times, and tapped your toes twice. Are you experiencing discomfort in your back area?”

Ah?

Observing Song Xuyan’s demeanor, Lin Mo truly felt it, this kind of person was just born to be a leader.

Back when he worked, he always thought those colleagues who were sycophantic were despicable, with faces that made one sick.

But now that he was the one receiving compliments, he suddenly felt it wasn’t so bad.

This was perhaps what they call ‘where you sit determines what you think’; when the position changes, the whole mindset changes as well.
