She changed her clothes and entered the intensive-care unit . Repeatedly, she told herself, ‘Don’t cry . Just tell him everything you’ve buried deep inside your heart . ’
But she couldn’t help her tears from flowing down her face as the words rolled off her tongue .
She stared at his closed eyes and cried, “You idiot . Didn’t you say that you’ll like me only after I like you?”
She placed her head in Jiao Chen’s palm . She choked . “Why did you like me when I haven’t fallen for you yet?”
Her tears cascaded down her face and it landed in his palm .
“Why were you so foolish? Haven’t we already broken up? Didn’t you say that you didn’t like me yet, and you were fine with calling it quits?”
She sobbed silently .
She thought, ‘If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have made it so difficult for you . ’
‘If I had seen this coming, I would’ve tried harder to fall for you . ’
“Su Yue, it’s time to go . ”
The nurse called from the entrance .
Su Yue nodded and lifted her head . She stared at his face, wanting to say something but the words got stuck in her throat . She pursed her lips and prepared to leave .
Suddenly, she felt a weak grip around her hand, which was still wrapped around his .
Who was it?
Su Yue froze as her eyes brimmed with tears .
Then she came to her senses and broke out in a smile . “Jiaojiao…”
Su Yue turned to look at her hand . Jiao Chen’s fingers were bent, and his middle finger was clutching the joint of her middle finger .
She haphazardly wiped her tears and smiled, bending closer to his face . “Jiaojiao . ”
Her tears fell on his chapped lips, moisturizing them .
“Su…”
His lips moved but were still very weak .
“I’ll go call the doctor . ” Su Yue wiped her tears again and yelled at the door . “Doctor, doctor! He’s awake . ”
The nurses had already arrived .
The doctor-in-charge and a few assistant doctors arrived shortly after .
Jiao Chen’s mother was staying in an unoccupied ward, so Su Yue told one of the nurses to inform her .
She was in her early forties and had shoulder-length black hair tied into a loose braid .
She was tall at 1 . 7 meters .
Although she looked weary, she still looked undeniably beautiful . Jiao Chen had definitely inherited his flawless skin from her .
And their features were too similar .
They did a check on him .
Then they left the ward . The doctor said, “The patient indeed woke up earlier than expected, but his vital signs are still weak . ”
Su Yue and Jiao Chen’s mother frowned and grabbed the doctor’s elbow at the same time .
He smiled and comforted, “But of course, you guys shouldn’t worry . He’s getting better . ”
“Really?” Su Yue excitedly asked . “When will he wake up? When will his life be out of danger?”
The doctor replied, “He’s already gained consciousness . If he has sufficient willpower, he’ll wake up in no time . ”
Su Yue nodded and released her grip on his elbow .
The doctor took one last glance at both of them, turned around, and left .
Su Yue turned around and stood at the door to the ward . She was in a daze .
Jiao Chen’s mother walked over to her and followed her gaze . Her heart indescribably ached when she saw her son lying motionless on the bed .
After a moment of silence, Jiao Chen’s mother said to her, “Su Yue, you should go back and rest . ”
