CHAPTER 54

When the pungent smell of disinfectant penetrated into the nasal cavity, Yu Duo frowned. Her eyebrows knitted, apparently sleeping very uneasily.

The sunlight was gradually coming through the gaps in the curtains, brightening the room.

Yu Duo slowly opened her eyes on the hospital bed and the white ceiling reflected in her eyes. The pungent smell awakened her senses and reminded her of her recent experience.

Her last memories were of the dark night, the dazzling headlights, the harsh sound of friction and the violent impact.

And that sentence that she was very familiar with. Be careful.

Traffic accident? In hospital? Fu Sinian?

A series of questions flashed in Yu Duo’s mind.

She sat up and looked around blankly. Her rusty brain began to work slowly.

After a life-threatening car accident, Yu Duo felt that her energy and spirit had been emptied. Her eyes lost focus and she looked at same place for long time. Her face paled as she remembered the scene of the traffic accident last night. She remembered clearly, at that time, she seemed to hear a voice.

At that time, there was only Xiao Zhang in the car. The voice was not Xiao Zhang’s but it was a bit like… Fu Sinian’s.

Fu Sinian?

Yu Duo reflected on whether she had hallucinations but the voice was real as if it was in her ear.

Was she dreaming…

How could she hear Fu Sinian’s voice last night?

The ward door opened.

When the nurse came in, she saw Yu Duo who had woken up and cried out in surprise, “Mrs. Fu is awake!”

After a moment, the door of the ward was pushed open and Aqi rushed in.

She stood at the edge of the hospital bed. She bent over and stared at Yu Duo with intense tension in her eyes

As soon as the voice fell, sound of a lot of footsteps came from outside the ward, including Aunty Lian and several doctors in white coats.

Yu Duo turned her aching neck and looked at Aqi in daze. “Aqi, I feel like I heard the voice of… Sinian.”

Aqi was stunned and kept rooted in the same place. Her expression changed from tense to stunned. Her eyes were full of impatience and indignation. At last, she turned around and said, “Don’t say so, sister-in-law…”

“I really heard Fu Sinian’s voice,” Yu Duo thought more and more. Fearing that Aqi would not believe her, she emphasized: “I didn’t lie to you, it’s true!”

“Sister in law, calm down!” Aqi took a deep breath and looked at Yu Duo cautiously. She told her seriously word by word as if she was trying to wake Yu Duo up from her dream, “Big brother is already gone!”

“I know he’s gone, but I really heard his voice,” Yu Duo asked her, “You don’t believe me?”

Aunt quickly added: “At home, even I often hear Mr. Fu’s voice.”

“Is it?” Yu Duo looked at Aqi and said excitedly, “Look, even my aunt often hears Sinian’s voice.”

Aqi looked at Yu Duo in silence.

She knew that the elder brother had passed away two months ago but the elder sister-in-law had not been able to recover from it. She thought that after going abroad for a month to relax elder sister-in-law would recover from her trauma, but she didn’t expect that she was more and more unable to let go of it and was getting increasingly addicted to her fantasy.

Elder brother has passed two months ago. How can she still hear her voice?

She can’t bear it and just want to talk but she was interjected by aunt.

Aunt Lian gave her a look and shook her head. She motioned her to follow Yu Duo’s words.

“Well, sister-in-law, I believe you.” She asked with a smile, “Do you feel uncomfortable?”

Yu Duo smiled and said, “I am fine but the neck hurts a little. By the way, what happened about the car accident?”

There were some dim emotions hidden under Aqi’s eyes.

Last night Yu Duo had a car accident and she knew all about it.

The big truck (I have previously translated it as car. Sorry for inconvenience…) suddenly changed the lanes at a distance of ten meters from Yu Duo’s car. Driver did not slow down and even stepped on the accelerator to the end. The goal was clear. It was directed at Yu Duo’s car, the purpose was to kill!
