Chapter 3216: Wedding Of The Century (1)
Regeneration was a huge undertaking. Alice told Gong Jie that if he wanted a more complete recovery, the man would need to undergo more than thirty surgeries to reconstruct his basic functions.
Of course, she referred to restoration only in a certain sense. For example, restoring vocal cords to speak again, or functions of the other organs.
Gong Jie entered the ward. Yun Yecheng was lying on the bed. His eyes were open and he had oxygen tubes inserted into him. He seemed to be awake.
The ECG showed a steady normal state.
Gong Jie walked up to the bed, bent over and greeted Yun Yecheng, “Uncle?”
Yun Yecheng turned his head slightly to look at him. With much difficulty, he said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Xiao Jie… you’re back…”
“Yes.”
Gong Jie sat down by the bed and took out his phone. He searched for the wedding invitation and a few wedding photos that Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ had sent to him, and showed them to the man. He flipped through them as he spoke softly, “s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ is getting married soon! In the lead up, you have to work hard to recover. I’ll take you to the wedding event.”
When he heard this, Yun Yecheng’s lifeless eyes widened, and his gaze brightened.
“s.h.i.+s.h.i.+… is finally… getting married…”
When little Yueyao was born, because of his health and as he was in a coma after the surgery, he had been unable to visit them personally.
When he came to, he heard from Gong Jie that Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ had given birth to a daughter and now had both sons and a daughter, he was really pleased!
However, at the same time, he couldn’t help feeling regretful!
When his beloved daughter gave birth, he could not personally accompany her and be by her side to look after her. He even saw his granddaughter in a photo!
In the photo, he saw the family of five. Mu Yazhe sat by the hospital bed with his arm around Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, while Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was carrying little Yueyao. Little Yichen and Youyou smiled at the camera with their hands held up in a victory gesture. It was warm and beautiful.
Looking at the photographs, he felt extremely gratified.
However, when Gong Jie said that he would take him to the wedding event, Yun Yecheng suddenly felt troubled!
“s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s wedding… I… don’t think I will go…”
Gong Jie was rather taken aback when he heard this. “Why?”
“Xiao Jie… Look at me… There are so many VIPs at the wedding venue… I look terrible and will frighten them…”
“Uncle, how could you think that way?”
Gong Jie comforted him. “s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ will be sad if she didn’t see you at her wedding! She must want you to be a witness to such an important occasion.”
Yun Yecheng was touched, although heartbroken when he heard that. He blinked as tears welled up in his eyes.
He still felt guilty towards her.
Because of Yun Na…
He was still brooding over it.
Gong Jie consoled him again and said, “You’re s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s Dad. You’re her most important family member.”
Yun Yecheng burst into tears again when he heard this. Then, he nodded and agreed to go!
After Gong Jie left the ward, he recalled what the young man had just said and was momentarily stunned.
You are s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s dad, her most important family member.
And what about father?
Gong Jie was distracted as he returned to the Gong family residence. Just as he was about to walk upstairs, the butler saw him and immediately stopped him. “Young Master, Old Master is waiting for you in the study.”
“Father is looking for me?”
“Yes! Old Master has asked that you go to his study when you return. He has something to ask you.”
