This was also what she had hoped for a very long time. Could she see the splendor beyond the darkness?
Nonetheless, she could feel that Xi Mushan seemed to be more nervous than her. His palm that held her was already covered in a layer of sweat.
Compared to them, the doctor seemed much calmer as he methodically took the bandage off slowly and put it on the tray that the nurse held.
Shen Wenna kept her eyes closed and did not open them. She only felt a lightness over her eyes as the binds from before had all been taken off.
The blonde Doctor Harrison smiled at Shen Wenna, speaking in fluent English, “Madam Shen, you can open your eyes now. Open them slowly. Lisha, go and pull the curtains open a little.”
“Okay,” the nurse responded, and then slowly walked over to pull open half of the curtains, leaving only a small gap.
“Wenna, Doctor Harisson says you can open your eyes now. Open them slowly to get used to the light in the room. That’s right. Slowly…” Xi Mushan said to Shen Wenna.
Shen Wenna then nodded gently, still holding Xi Mushan’s hand tightly as she slowly opened her eyes.
She only felt a strong light suddenly streaming in, making her wince in slight pain. Then came the blurry scenes before her that slowly shifted clear. Shen Wenna blinked and subconsciously looked at the light that was pouring in from the window. After she got used to it for a while, she could finally see clearly!
The muslin curtains were swaying gently in the wind while a b.u.t.terfly with fluttering wings had even stopped on the window frame.
She could see!
She finally got her vision back!
She could not help but tremble. While she held Xi Mushan’s hand, she felt her emotions stir up and she turned to look at Xi Mushan.
Xi Mushan’s tired and sallow handsome face greeted her sight. Since the last time she saw him, he looked much more wan and paler. He had also changed to appear a little older, and his once-jet black head of hair now hid many short silver strands.
“Nana, can you see?” Xi Mushan waved a hand in front of her frantically as he asked softly. There was a concern that could not be hidden in his dark eyes.
Shen Wenna stared at him for a long while, and then nodded gently. “I can see you. You… How did you become like this? You look much older than before…”
When Xi Mushan heard her comment, he reached out and held her by her frail shoulders. Then, he closed his eyes and sighed. “I’ve been old for a while now. Good, you can finally see… That’s wonderful, Wenna…”
“Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?” Doctor Harrison asked from the side with a smile.
Now, Shen Wenna looked up at Harrison, her eyes filled with grat.i.tude as she spoke in fluent English, “Thank you, Doctor Harrison. I feel pretty good.”
Doctor Harrison nodded. “You’ve just recovered, so your eyes can’t be exposed to strong light now. Mr. Xi has already prepared a pair of sungla.s.ses for you. Wear it for a few days. When your condition is stabler, you can take them off. Be careful with the way you use your eyes. For now, you can’t use them for too long. Make sure to rest. In another two days, come back for a checkup and if everything’s normal, you can return home a.s.sured.”
Once Harrison finished, Xi Mushan took a box out from his pocket, opened it and took out sungla.s.ses for Shen Wenna to wear.
“Okay, thanks, Doctor Harrison!” Shen Wenna looked at Doctor Harrison in grat.i.tude.
“You’re welcome. Mr. Mu is my good friend. Previously, he’s watched out for me, so this is what I should do in return.”
Ah Chen!
Shen Wenna subconsciously turned to look at Xi Mushan who smiled and nodded too. She could not help but sigh, “Ah Chen is such a considerate boy. Xiaye… We can feel a.s.sured handing Xiaye over to him. The first time I met him, I knew that Xiaye wouldn’t be wrong this time.”
Then, her eyes could not help but tear up as Xi Mushan nodded in agreement and hugged her tightly.
“Okay, later I will prescribe some medication for Madam Shen. Just follow the nurse’s instructions when you get home. Right now, follow me for one more examination,” Doctor Harrison said courteously.
Then, Shen Wenna stood up slowly. Little Apple that had been laying on the side swooped over and jumped into her lap. Shen Wenna quickly reached out and hugged it tightly as she looked down and through her dark sungla.s.ses. Finally, she could see how Little Apple looked like clearly.
“Little Apple? Turns out Grandmother’s Little Apple looks like this! Ooh, so cute!” Shen Wenna said happily as she reached out to pat Little Apple’s furry little head.
“Ah Chen sent it over. He really put in a lot of thought for this little thing.”
Xi Mushan lifted a hand to pat Little Apple’s head. Thanks to this little thing, he and Shen Wenna had gotten much closer, and now, they could sit like husband and wife on the sofa as they held Little Apple to play with. It really felt as if they had one more mischievous grandchild.
Ah Chen’s poodle was sent at such a good time.
After that, they went through another round of detailed examinations. It was close to evening when they left the hospital.
When he reached the office in the morning, Mu Yuchen received Doctor Harrison’s call and found out about Shen Wenna’s recovery.
“Master, is it Doctor Harrison?” Mu Yuchen had just hung up when Li Si asked him, appearing like he was antic.i.p.ating something too.
Previously, it was Li Si who contacted Doctor Harrison, so he more or less knew about the situation. Seeing the way Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye always called Los Angeles, he hoped that Shen Wenna would recover earlier too. That way, Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye could be relieved. Now, there was Su Nan’s end and the company matters too. With Miss Lingshi, Gu Lingsha, and a bunch of things intertwining together, and at such a critical time for Missus, Li Si could not help but be worried.
Mu Yuchen nodded with a calm expression. He looked down contemplatively at the doc.u.ment before him, and then said, “Get Chauffeur w.a.n.g to prepare the car. I want to make a trip to Fuhua.”
“Fuhua?” Li Si was surprised. He could not help but look at Mu Yuchen, feeling puzzled.
Mu Yuchen breathed in and closed the doc.u.ment before him slowly. “Hurry.”
Upon hearing that, Li Si dare not say anything more. Master never liked people questioning him. He must have something important to tell the Elder CEO Shen.
“Should we call to inform Elder CEO Shen first?”
“No need. Be quick.”
