Ye Kun placed the fresh champagne roses into the vase and arranged the bouquet. Then, he stroked Fang Xi’s head before sitting down and holding her hand. He began to speak to the unconscious Fang Xi.
“How are you feeling today? Did you miss me? I bought the last bouquet of champagne roses in the flower shop today. Luckily, I asked the florist to reserve a bouquet of champagne roses for me every day. I told her they’re for my wife, and she said she would definitely keep them in reserve for me because there aren’t many good men out there who are as affectionate as me! Fang Xi, she praised me. I’m such a good man, so you should wake up soon, or someone can easily snatch me away!”
“Fang Xi, you’re probably traveling alone in your inner world and have forgotten about home because you’ve encountered a place with beautiful scenery. Fang Xi, don’t forget I’m still waiting for you here. Don’t leave me here alone. I’ll be miserable without you! So, come back if you’ve had enough fun and rest. I’ll take you to visit all kinds of places all over the world!”
“My big brother is very nice to me now, Fang Xi. He doesn’t arrange for me to
go abroad anymore. He was very strict with me in the past—he’d send me to the other side of the globe without any discussion. I’ve been to many, many countries—the coldest, the hottest, the richest, and the poorest. I’ve seen a lot of suffering in the world. I’ll take you to visit those places again in the future. Didn’t Yun Nan ask you to write a script? You can gather info and collect materials for it along the way.”
“My housekeeper told me my mother has secretly prepared a betrothal gift, Fang Xi. She even told my big brother that she’d give his betrothal gift to you, my wife, if he doesn’t find a girlfriend soon. Hehe, serves him right!”
“This is all thanks to you. With you, I can hold my head high before my mother and big brother. It doesn’t matter how outstanding my big brother is; to my mother, he’s not a good son if he can’t bring home a wife!”
Ye Kun chuckled smugly at this point and placed Fang Xi’s palm on his face. Suddenly, he felt Fang Xi’s fingers twitch slightly. Ye Kun froze, not daring to move. Fang Xi’s index finger brushed against his face once more; he felt the movement clearly this time.
Ye Kun carefully held Fang Xi’s hand up before his eyes and softly called out, “Fang Xi?” He didn’t dare raise his voice and even quieted his breathing, afraid that he would scare this miracle away if he spoke too loudly or breathed too heavily.
“Fang Xi?” he gently repeated. Sensing the slightly quickening pace of Fang Xi’s breathing, Ye Kun raised his head to look at Fang Xi’s face and saw Fang Xi suddenly frown and her eyelashes quiver.
“Fang Xi?” Ye Kun called out again, feeling as if this were a dream, and blinked his eyes hard. Fang Xi’s eyes moved under her lids, and her eyelashes fluttered. Ye Kun was ecstatic. “Fang Xi! Fang Xi, wait here! I’ll go get the doctor!” In his frenzy, he forgot about the call bell at the bedside and ran out.
Yun Nan and Shi Nian had just arrived at the corridor when they saw Ye Kun run out of the ward, manically yelling, “Doctor! Doctor! Doctor, come quickly!”
Yun Nan’s heart skipped a few beats. She rushed over, grabbed Ye Kun’s arm, and anxiously asked, “What’s wrong? What happened to Fang Xi?” Without waiting for Ye Kun to answer, she pushed him away and rushed into the ward.
Ye Kun hugged Shi Nian, overwhelmed by his emotions, and babbled, “Shi Nian! Shi Nian! Fang Xi moved. Her hands moved. Her eyes, too.” He then remembered what he came out to do and shouted, “Doctor! Doctor!”
The doctors and nurses heard his calls and rushed into the ward. Yun Nan was squeezed to the side, and her legs went weak. Shi Nian happened to come in right then and support her.
Seeing him, Yun Nan threw herself into Shi Nian’s arms and burst into tears. Shi Nian hurriedly said, “Don’t cry, don’t cry. Fang Xi’s alright. They’re checking her over because she’s showing signs of waking up!”
‘Huh? Yun Nan stared disbelievingly at Shi Nian with teary eyes.
Shi Nian nodded. “Yes, Fang Xi’s hands and eyes moved. Ye Kun is delirious with joy. Don’t cry. It’s not what you think.”
*Ba-dump* Yun Nan’s heart settled back in her chest and resumed its steady beat. All her strength sapped away, and she collapsed in Shi Nian’s embrace, letting him keep her upright.
The doctors and nurses were working busily around Fang Xi while Ye Kun paced circles around them, muttering, “Fang Xi, did you hear me? I’ll take you traveling around the world when you wake up. You can do whatever you want and eat whatever you want. I just want you to be happy! You can’t leave me here alone. I’m scared of being alone. Fang Xi, you have to come back soon!”
The various examination results came out very quickly, and the young nurses rushed to deliver them to the attending doctor. The attending doctor’s expression became more and more relaxed as he read through the results, and
he gradually smiled..
