One reason was his fear of the Changling God's abilities, but what made the Snake King give up so quickly was that He Tiantian never had any romantic feelings for him from beginning to end; it was all one-sided on his part.
"You are truly delusional!" The God of Changling rubbed salt into the Snake King's bloody wound.
"You..." The Snake King was enraged by being spoken to like that!
He's already given up, what more do you want!
"Give it to me!" God Changling reached out his hand.
The Snake King asked, puzzled, "What?"
"Those two pieces of jade!" said the God of Changling. Those things belonged to him and Yun'er, not to this spirit snake.
The Snake King was taken aback. Although he was reluctant, the jade pendant was not his and he could no longer keep it. So he had no choice but to give the jade pendant to the God of Changling!
"You can leave now," said the God of Changling. "Don't stay there; I'm not happy!"
Frustrated, the Snake King had no choice but to transform into a phantom and float out of the room.
The little tortoise looked at its master with admiration and said, "Master, you are amazing!"
The God of Changling looked at the little tortoise and said, "You should go in too."
"Yes, Master!" The little tortoise entered the barrier, but the God of Changling had made some changes, and the little tortoise was now completely unaware of the outside world.
The God of Changling put both jade pendants into the pocket of his hospital gown, lay down next to He Tiantian, and gently held her as they fell asleep.
He Tiantian slept soundly through the night until dawn.
When Zhao Huanhuan came to check on the patients, she saw the man and woman sleeping together.
Fortunately, the two of them were still wearing their clothes, otherwise, as the older sister-in-law, seeing such a scene would have been quite embarrassing for her!
When He Tiantian woke up and saw Zhao Huanhuan, she quickly got up and said, "Sister-in-law, you're here."
He Tiantian looked embarrassed, and while tidying her clothes, she tried to make conversation.
"Hehe!" Zhao Huanhuan covered her mouth and laughed. "It must be because you're too tired from taking care of your second brother. It's alright!"
Zhao Huanhuan was about to make a joke when she suddenly saw Huo Yingjie yawn, rub his eyes with both hands, looking as cute and innocent as a child waking up.
"Second brother is awake?" Zhao Huanhuan exclaimed excitedly. "That's wonderful, that's wonderful! Second brother, I'll check you out right away!"
Still a little groggy from just waking up, Huo Yingjie suddenly saw a woman lunge at him. He quickly jumped out of bed and hid behind He Tiantian, saying, "Bad person...bad woman..."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Huanhuan and He Tiantian looked at each other, dumbfounded!
"What... what's wrong with him?" Zhao Huanhuan frowned, feeling as if Huo Yingjie didn't recognize her.
He Tiantian was also puzzled. She turned around and grabbed Huo Yingjie's arm, saying, "Brother Yingjie, what's wrong with you? You were fine last night, how did you become like this! You...you're not joking with me, are you?"
Huo Yingjie stared at He Tiantian for a moment, then whispered, "Tiantian..."
He Tiantian felt slightly relieved when she heard Huo Yingjie call her name; at least he still remembered her.
Just remember her!
"Brother Yingjie, you're so naughty, joking with me like that," He Tiantian laughed. "That's your sister-in-law, she's here to give you a check-up."
"I don't want to!" Huo Yingjie said, continuing to dodge.
"Brother Yingjie, you're sick and need a checkup," He Tiantian said. "Come on, let me help you sit down on the bed. Be good!"
Zhao Huanhuan was filled with doubt and surprise. She hadn't seen Huo Yingjie from last night, but as a doctor, she deduced from Huo Yingjie's current behavior that he seemed to have become mentally impaired.
Are you stupid?
How cruel this is!
Such a smart person, from genius to fool, is even more shocking than Huo Yingjie's death.
"Then you stay with me." Huo Yingjie held onto He Tiantian's hand tightly, like a child with a deep fear of the outside world and people.
He Tiantian was taken aback and realized that Huo Yingjie was different.
Why has her brilliant brother become like a child?
And... and he doesn't recognize his sister-in-law Zhao Huanhuan anymore.
"Okay, I'll stay with you." He Tiantian comforted the frightened Huo Yingjie. "Sister-in-law, please check on Brother Yingjie."
"Okay!" Zhao Huanhuan was also anxious; she couldn't let her brother-in-law become an idiot!
Zhao Huanhuan learned from her husband that the Huo family's current situation was largely due to her brother-in-law's foresight. If Huo Yingjie were to become mentally unstable, it would be a significant loss for the Huo family, especially at such a sensitive time!
Zhao Huanhuan examined Huo Yingjie, but Huo Yingjie seemed very scared and kept avoiding Zhao Huanhuan's movements, and even looked at He Tiantian with a resentful look.
"Sister-in-law, what happened?" He Tiantian asked anxiously. "Why would Brother Yingjie do such a thing?"
He Tiantian didn't dare to say the word "idiot".
Zhao Huanhuan shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I'll go and call the teacher to come and take a look, and also have someone notify my family to come to the hospital as soon as possible."
Zhao Huanhuan went to see Dr. Zhang and also asked the guard outside to deliver a message to her home.
Upon hearing that Huo Yingjie had woken up, Dr. Zhang rushed over to examine him and inquire about his condition. His conclusion was: "He suffered a severe concussion, which may have damaged some brain nerves..."
The explanation seems reasonable, but it is also very vague.
Since there's no data to support this, we can only rely on Dr. Zhang's speculation.
Dr. Zhang is skilled in traditional Chinese medicine. After taking Huo Yingjie's pulse, he found that Huo Yingjie's body was healthier than that of an average person, but this still could not change the fact that his mind was not normal!
If he could, Dr. Zhang really wanted to pry open Huo Yingjie's head and see what was going on inside!
When the Huo family received the news that Huo Yingjie had woken up, the entire family, young and old, came to the hospital.
Madam Huo and Jiang Lifang were wiping away tears the whole way!
Zhao Huanhuan did not tell the guard Huo Yingjie about his condition, so no one knew that Huo Yingjie had become "idiot".
Everyone went into the ward together, where Huo Yingjie was sitting on the hospital bed eating the food that He Tiantian had bought.
He would take a bite from He Tiantian, and then he would eat a bite. Sometimes, if He Tiantian was slow, he would hum a couple of times.
"My son!" Jiang Lifang cried with joy when she saw Huo Yingjie wake up, and rushed to Huo Yingjie's bedside.
Huo Yingjie trembled with fright and scurried under the blanket to cover his head.
Jiang Lifang was taken aback and said, "Son, son, where do you feel unwell? Why are you hiding? Let Mom see you!"
"I won't come out, I won't come out," Huo Yingjie said repeatedly, kicking his two large, exposed feet.
Old Madam Huo stopped crying in fright, looked at the old man, and said, "Yingjie, it couldn't be...?"
"No, my son is perfectly fine," Jiang Lifang said loudly. She absolutely would not allow anyone to say that her son was stupid.
Her son is so outstanding, her son is a genius!
Huo Zhekun supported his wife, who was deeply traumatized, worried that she wouldn't be able to handle it and would break down.
Old Master Huo and Old Madam Huo couldn't bear it, so they went outside and silently shed tears.
