Chapter 494: No Movement

If looks could kill, then at this moment Gu Lingling and Liu Qing would have been killed several times by Shen Lingyu’s murderous gaze.

"Be careful if you encounter her again; she’s not as easy to deal with as she seems." Liu Qing, feeling awkward, hesitated for a second before warning Gu Lingling.

After all, she had suffered at Shen Lingyu’s hands many times.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend, so right now, she and Gu Lingling are comrades in arms.

"Thank you," Gu Lingling said seriously, "I didn’t expect you to protect me like this."

"Tch, don’t get me wrong, I just don’t want that bitch to get smug. Who wants to protect you? We’re enemies too, got it?" Liu Qing said disdainfully.

After speaking, afraid Gu Lingling would say more, she quickly added, "Hurry up and go. Are you trying to slack off? So much nonsense."

Well, this awkward woman.

Gu Lingling shook her head and followed Liu Qing into the rehabilitation building.

In the ordinary ward, several military doctors in white coats were checking on Yang Yunhai.

"Didn’t you say he’d wake up within two weeks? Why is there still no sign of it?" Wang Fangyi said with a dark expression.

It was because of the doctors’ assurances that they felt at ease.

"Well... Senior Officer, that’s what we expected," one of them explained, "We’ve done thorough checks, and his bodily functions are all recovering—better than a normal person’s, in fact."

Yet, they couldn’t figure out what kept him in a coma.

"I don’t want to hear these explanations. Just tell me, when can my grandson wake up?" This time it was Mr. Yang speaking.

Facing the two high-ranking officers, cold sweat streamed down the military doctors’ foreheads.

At this moment, they dared not give any assurances anymore; after all, someone who should have already woken up still hadn’t, leaving them in disarray.

They couldn’t find the reason.

"Senior Officer... We..." The head doctor said with difficulty.

When Gu Lingling entered, Zheng Xiangjun was silently shedding tears, while a group of white-coated doctors stood awkwardly.

"Old Wang, don’t trouble them anymore; let them go," Zheng Xiangjun waved and called for Gu Lingling to come over.

Gu Lingling felt a pang in her heart upon hearing this.

Could it be that Yang Yunhai’s condition had worsened?

Just a couple of days ago, she had seen his fingers move.

Thinking of this, her face turned pale, "Grandma, how... how is he?"

"Please don’t say anything, let me go and see Brother Yang; he must still be waiting for me to read him the newspaper." Fearing she might hear something bad from Zheng Xiangjun, Gu Lingling quickly said.

"Sigh, go ahead," Zheng Xiangjun said.

Gu Lingling entered the private room, leaned against the door, and looked at Yang Yunhai on the hospital bed.

On the day they met, Yang Yunhai was injured, but she had never seen him fall.

It was the first time he had been lying on a hospital bed for so long.

Gu Lingling covered her face and silently cried.

From the first day she arrived in Capital City, she told herself not to cry, to face everything with a smile.

Because her Brother Yang had said his favorite thing was seeing her smile.

So, these days, she had pretended to be okay, pretended that Yang Yunhai was just in the hospital for a regular stay, forcing herself to face him happily every day.

No one knew how worried and scared she actually was in this unfamiliar environment.

Just fearing she’d hear some bad news at the hospital one day.

Squatting on the ground, Gu Lingling cried, covering her mouth.

A certain Black Bird flying by the window spotted this scene.
