The doctorâs words instantly relieved the Mei Family of a big burden.
Han Yi still felt uneasy; his Wanwan was still in a coma. "Doctor, when will she wake up?"
"That... depends on the situation. From what we see now, the patient is very weak. It depends on her recovery over the next couple of days." The doctor hesitated when he said these words.
This made the Mei Family, who had just relaxed, tense up again.
Everyone looked very grave.
Only Ying Han, standing to the side, smiled slightly while holding the hand of the man next to her.
The man gave her a slight glance, his expression calm, but the hand he was holding tightened even more.
The Mei Family followed the nurse and moved Lin Wan to a private room.
Lin Wanâs head was wrapped in thick bandages, her eyes tightly shut, her face as pale as a sheet of paper. Seeing this made Liang Qianâs eyes red with heartache.
"In just a blink of an eye, how did things turn out like this? How am I supposed to explain this to Hongmei?"
Mei Shuqing patted his wifeâs shoulder and gently consoled her, "Itâs alright, the child was meant to face this misfortune. Itâs fortunate in the midst of misfortune; both the adult and child are fine. When she wakes up, weâll give her a good recovery. Youâre still holding the child; if you cry, you might wake the child up."
Liang Qian nodded, blinking the tears from her eyes, and gently rocked Little Star, fearing the baby would wake.
Mr. Mei and Old Mrs. Mei took a glance and sighed before leaving.
This left Han Yi alone, holding onto Lin Wanâs hand, afraid to let go, as if once he did, Lin Wan would leave him.
Ten minutes later, even when the nurse came to ask everyone to leave, Han Yi wouldnât budge.
Chen Haichang, standing to the side with arms crossed, coldly reminded Han Yi, "The police are here. One of those two truck drivers did not survive, and the other âsuddenlyâ fell into a coma. Itâs suspicious; you should go and see whatâs going on." And with that, he left.
Han Yi, who was initially stunned, blinked, his eyes turning bright as he glanced at the door.
He turned back once more to see Lin Wan lying with her eyes closed, got up, leaned over, and gently kissed her forehead. He caressed Lin Wanâs pale cheek and said, "Wanwan, I know youâre the best and the strongest. Hang in there. Wake up soon. Donât make me and the child wait too long."
....
Once the family members had left, the nurse sanitized the room. She was about to close the door when Ying Han came running with a smile, "Excuse me, I just forgot something inside; can I go in and get it?"
"Are you a family member of the patient? Iâm sorry, visiting hours are over. The patient just finished surgery, and itâs not suitable to have too many people inside now."
"I know. Iâll grab my things quickly and come out; I wonât disturb the patient."
"What did you forget? I just cleaned up and didnât find anything left behind."
"Perhaps you didnât see it; I left it in the corner. Miss, can I go in for just a minute?"
The nurse hesitated for a moment, but seeing how fair and cute Ying Han looked, and being called a "miss," her impression of her instantly improved.
Her heart softened, and she agreed.
"Thank you, miss, Iâll be out in a moment," Ying Han said and went straight into the room.
Sure enough, within a minute, Ying Han came out holding a pair of gloves.
Liang Qian, holding Little Star, watched the police questioning Ye Qing. Only then did she notice Ying Han and another person.
Feeling she had neglected them, she quickly stepped forward and apologetically said, "Iâm really sorry, with everything happening at home, please excuse any lack of hospitality. Itâs already midnight; do you have a place nearby to stay? If not, you can come to my home."
"No, Auntie, we have a place here. Now that Sister Xiao Wan is fine, weâre reassured. Itâs getting late, so we wonât disturb you. Weâll come visit Sister Xiao Wan another day."
"Okay then, take your time on the road. When Xiao Wan is better, if thereâs a chance, she can bring you over to our house to play. Iâll walk you out."
"Thereâs no need, Auntie. Itâs cold outside, and youâre still holding Little Star. Itâs just a few steps; weâll be going."
"Alright then, take care on the road."
After Liang Qian saw Ying Han off, she heard Ye Qing shouting about a headache.
Before she could walk over, she heard Ye Qing alternately crying and laughing.
The Mei Family saw her having an episode, and everyone had stern expressions.
The police, seeing Ye Qing in such a state, dared not ask any more questions. They briefly inquired about the situation with Han Yi and then left.
Among those present, only Han Yi seemed normal.
The police were confused too; if it was really the truckâs fault, the truck should have hit both cars.
Based on their investigation at the scene, the two cars hadnât been hit by the truck. Now, one truck driver is dead, and the other is in a coma, making it impossible to ask them questions.
The two cars indeed collided. Now that Ye Qing was mentally incoherent, they couldnât get much from her. And Han Yiâs testimony alone wasnât enough.
After the police left, Mei Shuping first took Old Mr. Mei home.
Ye Qing had an episode, and Xie Lingzhi suggested finding a mental hospital to secretly admit her.
Ye Qing felt a chill upon hearing Xie Lingzhi wanted to send her to a mental hospital.
Fortunately, Mei Langchi stopped her and took Ye Qing back to their small courtyard.
Originally, Mei Shuqing wanted Han Yi to go back with them. Now, because the doctors werenât allowing visitors, he could only wait outside anyway.
With his stubborn nature, Han Yi insisted on staying to watch over Lin Wan.
