Chapter 494: Chapter 494 Coma
"Ah!" Bai Feifei suddenly awoke from a nightmare, not knowing how long she had been unconscious. The gentle sunlight shone on her hospital bed, yet her body shivered uncontrollably, chilled to the bone.
Looking around, Bai Feifei glanced at the familiar scenery outside the window. "Am I... am I now at the border base? Wasnāt I supposed to rescue Ling Feng? Ling Feng... thatās right, Ling Feng is now..."
At that moment, the door to the ward opened, and a middle-aged man walked in.
"Dad!" As soon as Bai Feifei saw the middle-aged man, she couldnāt help wanting to stand up, but her body was weak. She swayed and collapsed back onto the bed. "Dad, how is Ling Feng? Has he been rescued?"
This man was Commander Bai Dongli of the border region. He watched Bai Feifeiās panic-stricken expression with hope and anxiety in his eyes, and he sighed softly in his heart.
"My daughter has grown up, and in her heart, there now lives another man!" Although Bai Dongli was stationed at the border all year round, his love for Bai Feifei was no less than Mu Xiaoās.
Seeing her father not speaking, Bai Feifei became frantic. "Dad, what about Ling Feng? Donāt tell me he..."
The thought of a bad outcome made Bai Feifeiās head spin, and she nearly fainted.
Bai Dongli patted Bai Feifeiās shoulder and said, "You rest well. Ling Feng has been rescued and is now in the emergency room. But donāt worry, with the Gu King and Dong Fengyue there, nothing will happen to Ling Feng!"
"In the emergency room?" Bai Feifei struggled to stand up. "No, I have to wait for Ling Feng!"
Previously, at the mountain ruins, Bai Feifei had fully understood her own heart. She thought a lot and realized a lot!
When the thought of Ling Feng possibly dying struck her, she was genuinely scared, scared that what she feared would really happen! So at that moment, she knew she had fallen in love with Ling Feng!
When exactly it started, Bai Feifei wasnāt very clear anymore. Recalling the bits and pieces of her encounters with Ling Feng, Bai Feifei knew she had been poisoned by him and couldnāt extricate herself!
"But your body!" Bai Dongli frowned and said, "Youāve injured your spirit. Itās best for you to lie down quietly in bed and rest. Once thereās news from Ling Fengās side, I will naturally tell you about it!"
Bai Feifei insisted, "Dad, do you really think I can rest easy here? With Ling Fengās life hanging in the balance, how can I possibly lie here peacefully? Help me out, Dad!"
Bai Dongli let out a sigh. Bai Feifeiās stubbornness was truly befitting of the Bai Family!
"Letās go, Iāll help you!" Bai Dongli said indifferently. "If I donāt agree to your request, you definitely wonāt let the matter rest!"
Bai Feifei nodded firmly and said, "Dad, you should know me. I would definitely do it!"
...
Outside the emergency room, Miao Yuting and others were anxiously waiting.
"Sister Feifei, why are you here?" Miao Yuting was surprised to see Bai Feifei. "My grandfather said youāve injured your spirit and need to rest properly!"
Bai Feifei gave a wry smile. "How can I think of resting now? With Ling Fengās life in danger, arenāt you worried?"
"I was really worried before, but not anymore!" Miao Yuting said earnestly, "Brother Ling Feng has my Love Gu on him, I can sense that Brother Ling Feng is not in any life-threatening danger!"
Hearing Miao Yutingās words, Bai Feifeiās tense mood finally eased slightly.
"Tingting, what happened after I fainted? How was Ling Feng found?" Bai Feifei couldnāt help but ask.
Miao Yuting replied, "According to my grandfather, Brother Ling Feng was found 130 meters above the ground. When he was dragged out, he was covered in blood, his breath extremely weak, and his body had countless wounds. That scene... I..."
Even though she knew that Ling Feng was not in danger of losing his life, the sight of Ling Feng covered in blood still made Miao Yutingās eyes redden involuntarily.
She wiped her eyes and said, "After Brother Ling Feng was rescued, we came straight here. Then my grandfather and Uncle Dong Fengyue took Ling Feng into the emergency room, and they havenāt come out until now!"
"How much time has passed?" Bai Feifei asked.
"A full three hours!" Miao Yutingās face showed a hint of anxiety, "I donāt know when Brother Ling Feng will wake up. With all the injuries he has, he must be in severe pain!"
As she spoke, Miao Yutingās voice carried a hint of crying.
However, what they couldnāt have imagined was, in the emergency room, both the Gu King and Dong Fengyue were looking at Ling Feng in shock.
Because Ling Fengās injuries were so severe at the time, with shattered internal organs and broken bones, had it not been for his extraordinary vitality, he might have been killed by the explosion!
But after being dragged into the emergency room, before the Gu King and Dong Fengyue could administer emergency aid, they found that Ling Fengās injuries were slowly healing. Although it wasnāt very obvious, it was shocking enough to astonish anyone!
"Elder Miao, have you ever seen someone like this?" Dong Fengyue looked at the steadily recovering Ling Feng and said somewhat dejectedly, "These nearly fatal wounds are already more than half healed. I really question my own value!"
Gu King shook his head, "Something we donāt know must have happened to Ling Feng. Although his injuries have recovered a lot now, he still shows no signs of awakening, and thatās what worries me the most!"
"You mean... Ling Feng might have fallen into a state of suspended animation?" Dong Fengyue asked in surprise, "If it really is suspended animation, we should be able to awaken him with external stimuli!"
"Iām afraid that might be difficult!" Gu King said with concern, "We didnāt know what happened at the time, but itās certain that the explosion caused Ling Feng great harm! Ling Fengās will is astonishing. If he cannot wake up by himself, itās very difficult for others to stimulate him awake!"
"Then what do we do? Just stand by and watch?" Dong Fengyue said with a bitter smile, "Our treatment methods are not as fast as his own healing. Itās truly astonishing!"
Gu King laughed, "Because heās my granddaughterās husband, of course heās extraordinary! Alright, I reckon the group of girls outside must be worried by now. Let them come in!"
...
After Ling Feng was moved to a regular ward, Miao Yuting and Bai Feifei each took up positions on either side of Ling Feng, both holding Ling Fengās hand, not caring in the least about the gazes of others.
"Letās go, leave this place to the two of them," Gu King and Commander Bai exchanged glances, both reading a hint of helplessness in each otherās eyes.
"Having a daughter fall for such a man, I really donāt know if itās a blessing or a curse," Bai Dongli sighed to himself.
