Chapter 108: Wake up

Translator: Henyee  Editor: Henyee

Tang Xi opened her eyes, only to see someone lying on her body. She was a woman and her hair was dark brown but not black, so this was not her mom. She frowned for a moment, but then she let out a scream of relief—she had come back!

Yes! She had come back!

She had tried all the methods she could think of except for calling 008. If she had called 008 earlier, wouldn’t she have been awake long ago?

At this thought, Tang Xi almost burst into tears at her own stupidity. Perhaps it was because she regretted not calling 008 earlier, or perhaps it was because she was too excited at her return, but she ended up really crying; tears continued to uncontrollably fall from her eyes.

Lin Ru, startled by her scream, stared blankly at her and then as if relieved, she hugged Tang Xi tightly and burst into tears, saying, “Darling, you finally woke up. I was so scared.”

Tang Xi hadn’t recovered from her excitement yet. At this time, she really needed someone to share her joy with, so she also hugged Lin Ru, crying and laughing. She was finally back. She could go to find Qiao Liang and tell him not to be sad, tell him she was still alive.

Lin Ru was delighted at being hugged by Tang Xi. She said excitedly, “Thank you, Rourou. Thank you for forgiving me.”

Hearing her voice, Tang Xi released Lin Ru slightly and left her arms. A bit surprised to see Lin Ru, she smiled embarrassedly and asked, “Why are you here?”

Lin Ru was slightly hurt by Tang Xi’s actions, but she maintained her composure and said, “You’ve been in a coma for many days. I was so worried about you…”

“Thanks.” Tang Xi smiled and took a look at the clock on the wall; it was morning. Lin Ru had to have been watching over her since last night. Since Lin Ru was willing to make it up to Xiao Rou, she couldn’t decide in Xiao Rou’s place not to forgive her, so she said, “You must be tired.”

It was Lin Ru’s first time hearing her daughter talking to her like this. She waved her hands with excitement and replied, “No, no, I’m not tired at all. It’s great… it’s great you woke up. I’m going to…” Lin Ru paused, and then continued, “I’m going to call your mom. Wait just a minute. They’ve also been watching over you in the hospital every day. In the evening, I take turns with your mom. They’ll be very happy to find out you’ve woken up.”

Tang Xi felt that Lin Ru had truly changed greatly. She was not as aggressive and mercenary as before, nor did she try to take credit for anything.

Tang Xi nodded with a smile. She asked, “Is my eldest brother okay?”

Just as Lin Ru was about to speak, however, Xiao Yao pushed open the door of the ward and entered. He looked much better. Donned in a military uniform, he looked very energetic. He smiled at Tang Xi and said, “Thanks to you, I’m okay.”

Lin Ru didn’t understand what Xiao Yao meant, but Tang Xi did, so she replied with a smile, “That’s the best news for me. I’m so glad to see you safe and sound, Yao.”

“But if you hadn’t woken up, I would have felt very guilty,” Xiao Yao said seriously, looking solemn.

Tang Xi pursed her lips and didn’t speak. She knew Xiao Yao might have guessed that she was a fairy. Who would be capable of what she had done except for fairies? She had even taken him back from City J to City A in an instant!

Of course, it would be a good thing for others to think she was a little fairy, though she herself knew those feats were owed to 008.

Lin Ru nodded and said in a tone with lingering fear, “Yes, Rourou, no matter how much you were worried about your brother, you shouldn’t have been in such a hurry when you went downstairs. You were in a coma for so many days and all of us were so worried about you. Do watch your steps while walking.” With that, she went out to make phone calls.

Only Tang Xi and Xiao Yao were left in the ward. The latter came over to sit beside Tang Xi and then took a deep look at Tang Xi. Tang Xi was busy estimating the time of Qiao Liang’s flight and didn’t notice Xiao Yao’s strange look.

Xiao Yao wanted to ask Tang Xi some questions, but in the end, he didn’t ask anything. Not long after, Lin Ru finished her calls and came back in. She said with a smile, “Your mom happened to come here with the soup she made. Take some soup while I go back and prepare lunch for you.”

“Aren’t you going back to work?” Tang Xi looked at Lin Ru. Not knowing what to call Lin Ru, she didn’t address her.

Lin Ru smiled and went to peel apples for her, saying, “I’ve been on vacation recently, and I can take care of you. If you don’t like me being here…”

“Well, you can stay here,” Tang Xi interrupted Lin Ru with a smile. The latter gave Tang Xi a grateful look and continued to peel the apple.

Xiao Yao whispered, “She’s been here since you were in a coma. I can see she’s really regretting what she did to you.”

Tang Xi smiled and said nothing.

Suddenly, something occurred to her and Tang Xi said, “Yao, I feel sleepy and I want to sleep.”

Hearing this, Lin Ru and Xiao Yao frowned at the same time. Xiao Yao said, “If you’re feeling sleepy, go downstairs and have a walk in the garden there. It’s morning and it’s not hot. Don’t sleep!”

Lin Ru also said worriedly, “Yes, you’ve been sleeping for so long. What if you can’t wake up… Don’t sleep. Have an apple, okay?”

Tang Xi suddenly found Lin Ru to be a bit cute.

She looked at them helplessly. “I promise I’ll only sleep for five minutes, okay?”

Xiao Yao replied with a shake of his head, “No.”

Lin Ru smiled and said, “Five minutes is so short. It’s better you have an apple and sober up.”

Tang Xi was helpless. “Then can I wash my face to clear my head?”

Xiao Yao smiled and reached out to rub at Tang Xi’s hair. He said, “Go ahead. Remember to brush your teeth. You’ve been in a coma for more than a week. You haven’t brushed your teeth for such a long time so your breath probably stinks.”

Tang Xi glanced at Xiao Yao a little crossly. Suddenly, she thought of something and shouted, “Brother! Did you call Aunt Qiao? I didn’t go to see her on Saturday. She must have been waiting a long time for me!”

Xiao Yao shook his head. “No, she wasn’t. Jing called Gu Yun on Friday, and he came to see you with Ms. Qiao. Don’t worry. Go wash.”

Tang Xi was relieved to know that she hadn’t made Aunt Qiao wait for her in vain. She really didn’t want to let anybody down, not to mention this person was Qiao Liang’s mom. She would have felt very guilty if Qiao Liang’s mom had prepared a meal and waited for her in vain.

As soon as Tang Xi entered the bathroom, she contacted 008 so as to check her experience points.
