Chapter 211 Sequelae
Before she fell asleep, she still felt unreal, "Old Jane, am I dreaming?"
Father Jian touched her head and said, "Don't worry and sleep well. I'll be here tomorrow."
I don’t know if it’s because I was sleeping next to my father, but Jian Mo had a rare and peaceful sleep.
The next day, when she woke up, she saw Father Jane leaning on the hospital bed, already awake. She smiled and said, "Good morning, Old Jane."
Father Jian also smiled. Such an ordinary day was very rare for them.
Xu Ming brought a nurse to the ward for rounds. After checking all the indicators, he was very satisfied and said to Jian Mo, "It's a miracle that Uncle was able to wake up. As long as he does rehabilitation well and takes good care of his body in the future, everything will be fine."
Jian Mo was very happy and said thank you sincerely, "Brother Ming, thank you for these four years."
After the two of them had made things clear last time, Xu Ming could only suppress his admiration. He forced a smile and said, "It's my duty. I just hope you won't feel burdened in the future."
Jian Mo pulled him aside and asked quietly, "You've been sleeping for four years. Are there any sequelae?"
"..." Xu Ming thought for a moment and told the truth, "My memory is a little bad."
"Serious? I think he's doing fine now."
"It's not too serious. He just can't remember things from the distant past clearly. I usually give him more brain nourishment," Xu Ming explained.
Jian Mo seemed to understand, "I'll arrange it."
Father Jian woke up, which alarmed many of his former friends. They all came to visit him with gifts. Jian Mo was squeezed into the corner and watched helplessly.
She thought about it again and again, and finally called the man. The call went through, but no one answered.
Jian Mo called again and the call was quickly connected. "Huo..."
"I'm Wen Yuan." The other end said straight to the point, "Brother Huo is in a meeting, and I'm joining him. His phone is with me. What can I do for you?"
Judging from her tone, someone who didn't know her would think she was Mrs. Huo.
It's a very straightforward explanation, but if you think about it carefully, you can detect the ambiguity. The identity of the person who can keep Huo Qichen's private mobile phone is really ambiguous.
Jian Mo choked, "I see. Please tell him that I called this number. I have something urgent to do."
Just as she was about to hang up, Wen Yuan called her, "What's the matter?"
"...family matters."
"Oh, as long as you remember what I said." Wen Yuan said and hung up the phone.
Jian Mo leaned against the wall, looking at his father surrounded by the crowd, feeling mixed emotions.
She had been in the hospital all day today when Huo Wan called to thank her for securing Wen Jing. "As long as he's willing to invest, funding won't be a big problem once the project is up and running."
Jian Mo also felt much more relieved, "That's good. By the way, Huo Wan, can you do me a favor?"
"Of course, you say."
"Help me...find a house."
"House? You're not..."
"Yes, I need a place where I can live long-term, preferably one suitable for the elderly to recuperate, and not too far from the city center." Jian Mo said, "Help me find it. I'll transfer the money to you when I find a suitable one."
After all these years, she still has some extra money saved up and can rent a house.
Mr. Jian won’t be able to stay in the hospital for too long in his current condition. He needs to find a suitable place to stay. Going back to the Jian family is definitely not an option.
"What are you talking about? Leave it to me and I'll arrange it within two days."
She was satisfied with this sentence.
When Jane's mother learned that Jane's father had woken up, she insisted on rushing to the hospital. The bodyguard asked Jane Mo what she meant, "Let her make a fuss, but don't let her in."
Father Jian had already learned about what Mother Jian had done over the past four years. He told Jian Mo, "When I get better, I'll divorce her."
There is no filial son by the bedside of a patient for a long time. Moreover, Jian Mo is not his biological child, but she has been able to take care of him for four years without leaving him. This shows her filial piety. If he still doesn't believe her, he would be a bastard.
Besides, over the years, the relationship between him and Jane's mother had long been exhausted.
In the evening, Jian Mo received a call back from Huo Qichen. She was having dinner with his father before the call was connected. He glanced at her and said, "Go answer it."
Jian Mo stood up. Perhaps because the meeting had been going on for too long, Huo Qichen's voice was very hoarse. "What's the matter?"
"..." She hesitated for a long time, unable to utter a single word. Her mood was very complicated. "I'll wait for you in Mingyuan around ten o'clock in the evening. Can you come back?"
There was silence on the other end as well, and it took a moment before they agreed.
Jian Mo did not stay in the hospital overnight today. She left early, took a walk around the area, and finally went to Tianshang Renjian.
Liang Qiu personally received him. "What happened?"
Jian Mo sat on the sofa, her long hair hanging down, covering most of her face. She watched Liang Qiu pour her a cup of hot tea with his own hands. The smoke slowly rose. She said frankly, "I don't know how to face our future. I came to you because I had no other choice."
She didn't know why, she had endured it for a whole year, but now she suddenly didn't want to endure it anymore.
Liang Qiu nodded. As an insider, he knew everything better than anyone else.
This will only happen when you care to a certain extent.
Liang Qiu smiled and said, "Jian Mo, do you think Huo Qichen has no feelings for you?"
"Isn't it obvious? Have you ever seen anyone so ruthless towards the woman he loves? He wavered between me and her, and made me shoulder a billion-dollar debt without a second thought."
Liang Qiu laughed. "If that's what you think, then I want to tell you that before you get too hung up on it, it's very important for you to understand one thing clearly—you don't actually understand Huo Qichen."
Jian Mo frowned, not understanding what he was talking about.
"I can't say I know you very well, but I'm pretty sure of Huo Qichen's psychology... Besides, you've reached the end of your rope. If you don't hold on to him, it goes without saying how difficult your future will be."
"Let me tell you a story. You know his identity is extraordinary. Even when he was abroad, many people were secretly coveting him. In the military, seizing someone's weak spot is the best strategy. At that time, everyone thought his weak spot was Wen Yuan, so a group of people kidnapped her in a grand manner to threaten Huo Qichen. Guess what he did? He was incredibly calm. Without spending a single soldier or a penny, he ignored the other party's threats to kill her and rescued her alone. Of course, I'm not trying to tell you that she is not important to him. In fact, she is not important enough."
"In my impression, Huo Qichen is synonymous with calmness and indifference. But a while ago, he stayed at my place for several days. When he was having fun, he was very provocative. Although he was crazy, he didn't touch any woman when he went to bed. I can see that something has changed in him. Don't question me, I don't have to lie."
Liang Qiu picked up the teacup, handed it to Jian Mo, and smiled lazily.
"When?" Jian Mo really didn't know about this.
"While you were recovering from your injuries, the scandal between him and Wen Yuan was spreading like wildfire."
