Chapter 665: Ning’ning Is Awake
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
She was not someone who could just sit and rest. It was already early in the morning, yet she still wanted to visit Lu Ning.
Even if only to look at her quietly from the side, she would be at ease.
No one in the room was willing to sleep, and no one could fall asleep.
Even though they had found her, they would still remain worried if she did not wake up.
Gu Chen had gone out to ask about something. Gu Zi was outside, staring at the wall in the corner as he pursed his lips. Tears were running down his cheeks.
The more serious he was when he was searching, the more miserable he felt as he cried now.
When he thought of Lu Nings current appearance, he could not help but cry.
After crying in the ward, he went outside to cry again.
Later, when Lin Ci saw him, the two of them simply stood in the hospital corridor and cried together.
When Lu Bai came to get them, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Go check on her. Ningnings awake.”
The two of them were startled and immediately darted over.
Lu Ning was awake, but she was still in a daze.
Her rationality seemed to have yet to return.
She only opened her eyes in a daze as she mumbled about the pain.
After crying out in pain a few times, she fell asleep again.
However, just this was enough to make Huo Jinyan feel utterly miserable.
Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi could not help but cry as they listened to her. They looked at Lu Ning with tears in their eyes.
All these were because of them, but now, their two children had to bear all of the burden.
The more the two of them thought about it, the more distressed they became. As soon as they thought about it, they would cry again, and their eyes were all swollen from crying.
When Lu Jingzhi woke up, it was already afternoon. Half of his face was still swollen, and his mouth was torn. It was obvious how much strength was in that slap.
However, unlike Lu Ning, he was completely cognizant.
His body and face hurt, but he still smiled when he saw Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi.
He called out to his parents vaguely.
Shen Yunci could not take it anymore, and the tears that had just stopped started falling again.
Lu Jingzhi looked at her. “Mommy… don’t cry… it doesn’t hurt…”
His face was pale, but he still comforted Shen Yunci.
Shen Yunci knew that he was comforting her. How could she not know how much pain he was in? The doctor had already said that it was a miracle that the child could persevere despite the pain, not to mention that he had been in the fire for so long.
Shen Yunci held his hand and pressed her forehead against the back of it, then burst into tears.
Lu Jingzhi looked at Lu Zhi helplessly.
Lu Zhi stood on the other side and looked at him. He bent down and kissed his forehead.
“It’s okay, our little darling. If it hurts, just say it. Tell Daddy and Mommy if it hurts.’
Lu Jingzhi’s eyes were red, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes. He said in a m.u.f.fled voice, “It only… hurts a little…”
His maturity only made Lu Zhi even sadder.
He gently stroked his head. “Okay, Daddy understands. Go to sleep. It won’t hurt anymore after you fall asleep.”
Lu Jingzhi responded obediently and closed his eyes.
Perhaps it really did not hurt anymore after they fell asleep. Other than that time when she woke up in a daze, Lu Ning did not wake up again.
Huo Jinyan sat there every day without changing his posture. He was almost like a statue.
He would carefully apply medicine to the wounds on Lu Nings palms every day.
The medicine Gu Chen prescribed was very effective. In two days, the wounds had almost healed completely.
However, Huo Jinyan would still hold only her thumb.
It was almost as if he was clinging on to some hope.
If Shen Yunci had not forced him to eat something every day, he would have collapsed.
They did not dare to ask him to leave. Knowing that he would be unable to do anything if he left, they simply let him sit here and watch over her.
Huo Jinyan looked at Lu Ning, his heart aching..
