Chapter 843 (Page 1/2)

Not long after Lin Man walked out of the ward, Huo Qingci, who had been sleeping quietly, suddenly woke up without any warning.

His eyes, which had been closed for a long time, were now opening slowly and with great difficulty, as if every blink required a huge amount of effort.

Then, his slender fingers trembled slightly, as if he wanted to grab something to support his weak body.

Finally, Huo Qingci's pale lips opened slightly, and he let out a faint, mosquito-like groan: "It hurts..."

Although it is just a simple word, the pain contained in it makes people tremble.

The nurse who had been busy nearby soon noticed the unusual situation. When she saw Huo Qingci who had woken up, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on her face.

He quickly turned around and shouted to the doctor not far away: "Doctor Zhang, Director Huo is awake!"

Upon hearing the voice, the doctor surnamed Zhang immediately put down the medical record book he was recording and walked over hurriedly.

After walking to the bedside and seeing Huo Qingci's condition clearly, he first showed a relieved smile, "Oh my, that's great, Director Huo finally woke up.

Director Huo, can you hear what I am saying? Your wife is here! You woke up as soon as she arrived. She is really your lucky star! Come, come, let me check you out.

When his eyes met the familiar face of Doctor Zhang, Huo Qingci came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream. It turned out that Doctor Zhang had just mentioned that his wife came to visit.

He clearly remembered that the thrilling car accident happened last night! But how come Manman came so quickly today?

How had he gotten here? Could it be that... had he been unconscious for days? Countless questions flooded his mind, making him restless.

Finally, unable to suppress his inner doubts and worries, Huo Qingci spoke anxiously: "Doctor Zhang, please tell me, what day is it today? Also, how long have I been unconscious?"

Hearing his question, Doctor Zhang replied solemnly, "Director Huo, you were admitted to our hospital at ten o'clock last night. Up to now, you have been in a coma for a whole day and night."

After hearing this answer, Huo Qingci subconsciously curled his fingers together, and the tension in his heart became even stronger. Then he asked, "So what about the other people in the car at the time? Is everyone okay?"

Faced with such a concerning question, Dr. Zhang couldn't help but sigh and said in a heavy tone, "Alas... What a misfortune! The driver sitting in the front seat and a researcher from the institute both passed away last night.

Of the three people sitting in the back row, only the director of the Drug Administration in the middle seat is safe and sound. As for the director of the research institute, he is still in a coma, just like you."

Huo Qingci slapped his head suddenly, shocked, and what happened yesterday flooded into his mind like a tide.

It turned out that a large group of leaders from the Drug Administration visited the laboratory to inspect the work yesterday.

After a busy day, when night fell, everyone stayed in the company cafeteria for lunch.

The director personally brought him and another researcher to accompany them, and they drank together to liven up the atmosphere.

The clock pointed to half past seven. After having a good meal and a drink, he followed the leaders' car on the road back to the city.

However, unexpected events happen. When the vehicle was halfway through its journey, the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, followed by a heavy downpour.

The big raindrops hit the car window violently, the wipers swung frantically, but the vision was still blurry.

For some reason, the vehicle leading the way suddenly lost control, the wheels began to slip, and then the entire vehicle slid sideways to the center of the road.

Although the driver of the vehicle they were riding in tried his best to avoid the car, he was unable to dodge and crashed into it because the distance was too close and the road was slippery.

The huge impact force caused the vehicle to instantly break through the roadside fence and fall straight down the hillside.

At this thrilling moment, Huo Qingci felt a powerful impact. Before he could react, he was knocked unconscious by the director sitting in the middle position.

As for how the car rolled all the way down the hillside, he had no idea at all.

Fortunately, they were all rescued in the end. I think it was the people from the Food and Drug Administration in the vehicle ahead who discovered the situation in time, offered assistance, and launched an emergency rescue operation.

Looking back now, Huo Qingci regretted deeply that he would have been able to foresee such a dangerous situation yesterday.

No matter what, he would not accompany his leader to drink and socialize, but would stay in the dormitory and sleep soundly, and then take the shuttle bus back to the city safely the next day.

Alas, everyone has to turn thirty-six, some happy and some sad! After so many years of smooth sailing, turning thirty-six is ​​really sad!

"Doctor Zhang, is my wife still outside? Can you ask her to come in?" Huo Qingci said in a low voice.

Doctor Zhang nodded. "I'll arrange for a nurse to call you. I'll check you out. You'll stay in the intensive care unit for another night for observation. If nothing's wrong, I'll transfer you to a general ward tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, Dr. Zhang."
