Yan Hua stands blankly outside the intensive care unit and looks at her small son lying in bed through the small window. The bed is so big, but her son is so small. His whole body is full of tubes, his head is wrapped in gauze, and he has to lie there on his side.
"Gungun..." Yan Hua can"t help sobbing and she bites her lips as hard as she can.
When Lang Ruoxian comes over, he sees this scene.
Even if she knew what kind of unknown and difficult challenges she would face when she entered into Lang Family, the woman was not afraid. She was careful with everyone and she was still alive and beautiful.
But now her face is pale and her hair is messy. Her trembling body bends slightly. She loses her vitality as if she is sucked out of her soul.
"Yan Hua..." He opens his mouth.
Yan Hua turns back fiercely, Lang Ruoxian is shocked.
"What are you doing?" Yan Hua asks coldly with an offish voice.
Her eyes are full of hatred, confusion, and sadness that he can"t understand.
"Are you blaming me?" Lang Ruoxian looks at her, "Because I chose to save you."
Yan Hua turns her head and doesn"t look at him, and she refuses to say a word to him.
"In that case, I made what I thought was the best choice." Lang Ruoxian stares at the gla.s.s window and then draws back his eyes quickly, "I am not the G.o.d, I didn"t know that Gungun would fall on the board."
No one would have thought that there was a nail on the board. If Gungun just fell to the ground, such a small baby would generally be okay, but...
"You are both here." Lang Hongyue comes over at this time, looks at them and says, "Ruoxian, you go back to pick up your grandpa; he wants to come to see Gungun."
Lang Ruoxian nods and looks at Yan Hua again. Seeing that Yan Hua"s eyes are blank as if her heart is dead, Lang Ruoxian clenches his fist and turns away.
"Didn"t I remind you before?" Lang Hongyue says harshly, "Gungun is Lang Ruoxian"s only stumbling block. Without this son, Lang Consortium will be his. Why do you still have a relationship with him?"
"Do you think that you are beautiful enough to make men listen to you? Ah... don"t be stupid!" Lang Hongyue sees that Yan Hua does not respond, so she can no longer hold back her anger. She pushes Yan Hua on the shoulder and then slaps her.
"I tell you! If your son dies, you will be useless. I have made great efforts on you and I have wasted so much time. If you destroy my plan, I will destroy you!"
Lang Hongyue uses all her strength to slap Yan Hua, so Yan Hua"s face is swollen and even the corners of her mouth are broken by her teeth. Blood flows down her chin into her neck, but Yan Hua seems unconscious. Her body sways and then she turns to stare at the gla.s.s.
"Hum! You"ve made a big mistake, what kind of mother do you pretend to be now?" Lang Hongyue spits and walks away with her high-heeled shoes.
Lang Ruoxian takes Lang Cha to the hospital five hours later. As soon as he gets out of the elevator, he sees a small figure standing outside the intensive care unit.
"Is that Yan Hua?" Lang Cha apparently sees her, too.
Lang Ruoxian holds Lang Cha"s hand tightly, and then shows a bitter smile, "She is worried about Gungun."
"It is normal for mother and son to have a heart-to-heart relationship." Lang Cha looks at him and says, "Is she blaming you?"
Lang Ruoxian does not answer, and takes a step forward, "Would you like to see her?"
Yan Hua knows that they are coming, but she is still motionless. She stares at the small gla.s.s window and mutters something.
"Yan Hua..." Lang Cha approaches her and wants to say something but he pauses when he hears the words from Yan Hua"s mouth.
Yan Hua says, "Please let my son live. As long as Gungun can get better, I"m willing to pay any price, even if I die."
"Don"t worry, Gungun will be fine!" Lang Cha pats Yan Hua on her shoulder. Seeing that Yan Hua still doesn"t respond, Lang Cha sighs and turns to say to Lang Ruoxian.
"You stay here with her, I will talk to the doctor."
When Lang Cha leaves, Yan Hua moves a little further away from Lang Ruoxian.
Lang Ruoxian looks at her and his eyes become colder, "If I didn"t save you at that time, what do you think of Gungun"s future after you died?"
"Do you think it is fair to blame me for Gungun"s accident?" Lang Ruoxian looks at Gungun in the ward, clenches his fist and then says, "I only say once. Believe it or not, saving you is my instinctive reaction."
He turns to leave and then hears a low and crying voice.
"So what... The result is that my son is lying inside now."
Lang Ruoxian looks at Yan Hua"s side face for a long time, and then leaves without saying a word.
"Young Master..." Xiaokai hiding in the corner rushes out and says, "You did so much for her. How can she not believe you? I will tell her..."
"Stop." Lang Ruoxian glances at him, "Who says that I was for her?"
Xiaokai is stunned. Seeing Lang Ruoxian leaving hurriedly, Xiaokai roars in his heart.
"You were afraid that Yan Hua would be bullied in Lang Family, so you always reminded her. Although your att.i.tude was not so good, it was also to keep Yan Hua from thinking too much."
"Even if you were injured, you tried to let Lang Yi leave here. When Yan Hua gave birth to the child, you asked someone to keep guard in the delivery room to prevent Lang Hongyue from harming her..."
"And... Forget it."
"Ah... What is the use of saying these?" Xiaokai"s shoulders sag and he thinks, "As far as the relationship between them, it"s better for Madam Hua not to know these things."
"What are you doing here?" Lang Hongyue hears that her father comes to the hospital and immediately rushes over. She is afraid that Yan Hua will take the opportunity to ask for something and her father will agree with her for compensation.
"Lady Hongyue." Xiaokai shows a stupid smile and says, "I am waiting for Childe Ruoxian. He is going to find his grandpa."
Lang Hongyue has never understood why Lang Ruoxian uses a child as his a.s.sistant. She heard that Xiaokai was brought into the company by Lang Ruoxian, maybe Lang Ruoxian had known him in the orphanage before.
"Where is Yan Hua?" Lang Hongyue asks again, "Is she in the ward?"
"She is still standing at the door of the intensive care unit."
Lang Hongyue impatiently waves her hand and then walks to the intensive care unit. She says with anger, "What does she want to do? Who does she show it to..."
Yan Hua is being persuaded by a little nurse.
"Madam Hua, you have been standing here for an afternoon. The doctor said that your son will wake up at least 24 hours later. You should go back to your ward first!"
Yan Hua does not respond, Lang Hongyue frowns and pushes her, "Did you hear what the nurse said? Is it useful for you to stand here? Gungun will not wake up for the time being. Come with me to see your grandpa."
"Let me go!" Yan Hua struggles. Lang Hongyue glares at the little nurse and asks, "Is there any way to calm her down?"
The little nurse runs into the ward with fear and does not dare to come out again. Lang Hongyue is pushed by Yan Hua and almost falls down.
Lang Hongyue is so angry that she slaps Yan Hua again, Yan Hua sways slightly. Lang Hongyue is about to ask someone to take her back to the ward but Yan Hua gives a lurch and faints.
"You"d better not stimulate her."
In the ward, the doctor gives Yan Hua a diagnosis and says, "Her brain waves are very chaotic. If she is stimulated again, I am afraid that she will have mental problems."
"She is so fragile, I..."
"Hongyue!" Lang Cha interrupts her, "Keep your mouth shut."
Lang Li rushes over, glances at his sister and says, "Yan Hua has fainted, what else do you want to say? You also have a responsibility for this incident. If you didn"t hand Gungun over to others casually, Gungun would not be carried away by Guo Xiaotong."
"What the matter with me?" Lang Hongyue shouts, "If she didn"t provoke that crazy woman, could she kidnap Gungun?"
Bang! Lang Cha"s crutches strike on the ground.
"Are you two tired of arguing? Shut up!" Lang Cha yells at them, "What"s the situation now? You are still noisy."
"Dad, take care of yourself. Don"t get angry." Deng Jingjing sees the scene and says with a smile, "Didn"t you say that Gungun is as n.o.ble as the emperor? Since it is so, Gungun will not be so easy to have an accident..."
Lang Cha glances at her and knows that she was mocking Gungun"s formal name.
"I am sure Gungun will be all right and he won"t have an accident." Lang Cha doesn"t want to haggle with Deng Jingjing. He walks to the bedside, looks at Yan Hua who wakes up and says.
"I have found a fortune-teller and he said that Gungun is going to be all right with his great fortune. If you go on like this, you will get ill before Gungun wakes up. Who can take care of him at that time?"
Lang Cha glances at the others, "Do you still want to count on them?"
"Dad..." Lang Hongyue wants to refute, but she is pulled by Lang Li so she just mutters something and then stops saying.
Lang Ruoxian stands beside Lang Cha all the time. Watching Yan Hua"s eyes slowly brighten up, he purses his lips and says, "Grandpa has invited a brain specialist from the United States, and he will arrive here the day after tomorrow."
"I want to eat." Yan Hua suddenly says, "I am hungry."
Lang Cha nods with satisfaction, "It"s good for you to understand!"
Yan Hua only calls a nursing worker to take care of her. Lang Li leaves with Deng Jingjing after comforting her. Seeing Yan Hua gobbling the food, Lang Hongyue stamps her feet and also leaves.
"Ruoxian." Lang Cha is sent back to the car by Lang Ruoxian. He pats Lang Ruoxian"s hand and says, "Thanks to you this time! Otherwise, we couldn"t find the doctor in America."
Lang Ruoxian smiles and says, "This is what I should do; Gungun is my nephew."
"If your dad and your aunt can think like you..." Lang Cha sighs, "What do they reckon with such a small baby?"
Lang Ruoxian watches the car drive away and then turns to the hospital.
"Young Master, it"s all arranged." Xiaokai comes up and says, "Dr. Horton is coming by our private plane and will arrive tomorrow. In order not to arouse their suspicion, the plane will land in the suburbs and he will come here by car."
Lang Ruoxian nods and takes the elevator directly to the top. There is no pet.i.te figure outside the intensive care unit, and the empty corridor looks dismal. He steps to the door and looks at the little baby on the bed.
"Young Master, Gungun will be fine. He can overcome all difficulties like you!" Xiaokai looks at the bed behind the gla.s.s window, and then looks at his young master.
His young master suffered more than this in the past, but he survived...
"Childe Ruoxian!" A little nurse runs over and says, "Madam Hua said that she wants to see you."
Lang Ruoxian doesn"t seem to be surprised, he goes to the ward calmly.
