Chapter 57 Awakening of Consciousness
Shi Qing thanked him politely, and Zhou Junheng nodded gently, "Captain Lu, thank you for your hard work today!"
"We should. Feel free to contact us if you need anything. No need to send it again."
"Well, thank you. Be careful on the road."
Everything was settled very quickly, just like she was sent away within a day after the accident, and all traces of her existence were wiped out.
It was almost too late for Li Yiyan to believe that this would be her first and last time seeing Zhou Junheng after returning to China, and it would be less than a day later.
They came at one o'clock, and it's not even two o'clock yet.
This time he didn't send her abroad, but to prison.
She wanted to laugh, but she started crying while laughing. She had never forgotten Zhou Junheng for a single day during all these years she was abroad. She wanted to return home as soon as possible and be by his side. By that time, time would have passed and Cheng Yan's death would no longer be a problem between them.
She finally came back and finally met Zhou Junheng.
But this time she lost everything, there was no chance...
Zhou Junheng didn't want to stay any longer. Ever since the incident with Cheng Yan, he had only felt hatred and disgust towards her.
She finally pleaded, "Zhou Junheng, I admit my guilt, but can you please tell me if you have ever been moved by me, even for a moment?"
Shi Qing didn't want to listen anymore. Every time he looked at her, he would think of Cheng Yan's death.
Today was even worse, she was even more vicious and wanted to kill Shi Ye.
But Li Yiyan did not give up.
Zhou Junheng answered without any pause: "No, never."
Without hesitation, with decisiveness.
Li Yiyan didn't want to believe it, "Is it because I'm with your brother?"
"No... I don't care who you're with. I don't like you. It was the same in the past and it's the same now. There's no reason. It's just that what you did later made me dislike you even more."
"Li Yiyan, I feel bad for Cheng Yan!"
"I've waited for you for so many years, and you treat me like this?"
"What does it have to do with me?"
"I really had no other choice at the time. I needed money so badly, and you were the only thing I could hold onto. If I married you, they wouldn't ask me for money again and again. That was my life-saving money..."
Zhou Junheng didn't need such an excuse at all. Cheng Yan died because of her. How could he not hate her!
"Then what is my brother?"
Li Yiyan was completely desperate, tears streaming down her face.
"Zhou Junheng, you are so cold-blooded and heartless! People like you don't deserve love!"
There was no one else in the ward except her.
Li Yiyan cursed at the top of her lungs for a long time in the hospital corridor.
…
Rushed back to the Military General Hospital again.
Visitors are allowed in the intensive care unit.
Through a small window on the door of the intensive care unit, one can see Zhou Junheng, wearing sterile clothing, sitting next to a girl who is wearing a ventilator and has tubes inserted all over her body.
Although Li Yiyan was dealt with, Zhou Junheng was still heartbroken.
Sheng Li said she was afraid of pain... How painful must she have been at that time.
How sad, aggrieved and upset she must have been when she heard Zhou Lai's irritating words.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoye, please wake up soon... I'm sorry, it's my fault for not taking good care of you."
He was too upset and too powerless.
He gently stroked the girl's hand, apologizing and blaming himself over and over again.
"Xiao Ye, can you give me another chance? There will be no more Li Yiyan incidents. She will be in prison. Zhou Lai will never appear in front of you again. I sent her abroad and she will never come back. I will also tell you everything about Li Yiyan. She is not my first love. My first love has always been you, since the year you came back at the age of thirteen..."
Zhou Junheng's waist bent down unconsciously.
The spine, which had always been upright, now had no support point, like a plant that was bent by a typhoon and could no longer stand.
His face was full of exhaustion.
But he was extremely cautious as he stroked the girl's face, whispering almost devoutly, "Eleven, brother loves you, I love you so much... Can you look at me again after hearing what brother said?"
Zhou Junheng looked at the person on the bed tenderly and greedily. He did not sleep all night.
He was afraid that the little girl would not be able to find anyone when she woke up. She said that when she suddenly woke up alone, she felt lonely and abandoned by the whole world. She didn't like that, and he was afraid of what she was afraid of.
In fact, the doctor said that the coma will last for about 24 hours before the patient slowly wakes up.
But Zhou Junheng always felt that it might be earlier. If she woke up earlier and there was no one around, she would be sad. And it was always possible, wasn't it?
He was staring intently, and the ward was so quiet that he could almost hear the sound of the drip.
But at that moment, just that instant, he saw the girl's eyelids moving, a slight struggle. It was a momentary and tiny movement, almost negligible or invisible.
Zhou Junheng even thought it was an illusion, but he had unconsciously held his breath. He had never wanted a definite answer so eagerly.
He stared at the girl's eyes and eyebrows on the hospital bed motionlessly, afraid of missing any moment.
But no.
Zhou Junheng suddenly realized that the girl was probably in pain, and she might be reacting unconsciously because the pain was too great.
The two emotions of heartache and the signs that the girl was gradually waking up were intertwined, making it extremely complicated... But he knew that the girl was at least conscious. He was not sure whether he could hear it, but he couldn't help but say it.
"Eleven, does it still hurt? Let's take it slow, it will be fine soon. We are not afraid. Brother is always here with you and will accompany you until you wake up. What happened to Li Yiyan back then was my fault. I will explain it to you as soon as you wake up, and I have already avenged you."
"Hmm? Okay? Eleven must be fine. Brother loves you."
