Chapter 104: Unconscious and Returning to China
At seven o'clock in the evening, at the Manila Moa Arena, Big Bang's stage performance had just begun. Countless young boys and girls in the audience were screaming at the top of their lungs. The concert had just begun, but they had already completely burned themselves with passion.
On the stage, five big boys sang and danced with boundless energy, their youthfulness was unbridled, their enthusiasm ignited the whole audience. G-Dragon on the stage was undoubtedly the most dedicated. As soon as he came on stage, he put aside all the worries in his heart and devoted himself to this double feast of hearing and vision. These five people were like little suns, each one of them was dazzling enough, and their combined charm was so great that you could not imagine. Looking at the people enjoying themselves under the stage, it really felt like the whole world was crazy about it.
At this moment, no matter how sensitive G-Dragon was, he could not have guessed that just when he put aside his worries and devoted himself to the performance, the person he loved was still in a coma.
The most famous private hospital in Seoul has organized a meeting of experts to discuss the patient's condition. From the time the patient was sent here before 1:00 p.m. to the time the rescue was confirmed to be complete, they just had to wait for the patient to wake up. However, the patient who had fallen into a coma showed no signs of waking up until 8:00 p.m., a full seven hours. The attending doctor, who was not too worried at first, did not dare to take it lightly. Even when questioned by Zhang Jingran and others, he gave the reason of further observation. If the patient still did not wake up by tomorrow, it might be dangerous.
Zhang Zhiyao was a little skeptical: "Why is this happening? Didn't they say the rescue was a success at the beginning?!"
The doctor was silent for a moment before explaining in simple terms, "The patient was discovered early and rushed to the hospital. Treatment was prompt, and the blood loss wasn't particularly severe, so the rescue effort went smoothly. Furthermore, the blood transfusion integrated well with the patient, with no adverse reactions. All of his physical indicators are gradually returning to normal. Normally, he shouldn't have gone into shock, and would have woken up in about two to three hours. However, the patient hasn't shown any signs of consciousness yet..."
Zhang Zhiyao was already getting fed up with what he was saying. "Just state the conclusion. I don't have any reason to waste time with you!"
"Zhi Yao." Zhang Jingran called her, his tone clearly showing disapproval, but he didn't really scold her. After all, he felt that the doctor was a bit too long-winded. They couldn't understand so many professional explanations. They just wanted to know what the current situation was and whether continuing in a coma would endanger her life.
The doctor was silent for a moment, then, remembering that the patient with the strange condition was their boss, he let go of everything and concluded, "So, we speculate that the fetus in the patient's womb may be causing these unstable factors, which may delay her awakening. But if she still doesn't wake up by tomorrow, there may be a real threat. Furthermore, it seems likely that the patient herself doesn't want to wake up."
The attending doctor's last words plunged the Zhang siblings into silence once again. This was what they were most worried about. After all, Jing Rong had chosen suicide, or perhaps she really didn't want to wake up? How could this be possible!
Zhang Jingran and Zhang Zhiyao's eyes suddenly dimmed, but they did not give up hope. Zhang Jingran even looked the attending physician in the eye and asked directly: "If it is the latter, what should we do?"
"The dean is currently notifying us to hold an expert seminar. I'll bring this up at that time and we'll finalize a plan after analysis and comparison."
"Then I'll leave it to you."
"That's what I should do." The attending physician glanced back at the intensive care unit and added, "But don't be discouraged. After all, a pregnant woman's body will naturally sense the fetus's presence, and it may wake up on its own."
Zhang Jingran smiled somewhat weakly: "I hope so."
It wasn't smooth sailing for Jung Yunho to request for leave. Even though his agent knew that he had something to do and wanted to help, he couldn't make the final decision. After all, they were participating in a business event. In other words, they were on someone else's territory and had no right to speak. However, the agent worked hard in the end and got Jung Yunho to leave more than two hours early. Jung Yunho never expected that when he rushed to the hospital and wanted to say hello to Jingrong's friends, he would hear their open conversation. Of course, it might also be because he was too absorbed in talking and didn't pay any attention to the surrounding environment.
"Brother, what should we do? Jingrong hasn't woken up yet. Not only can she bear this, but the baby in her belly can't bear it either. I heard that the first three months are the most important for taking care of the baby."
Hearing this, the words that Zheng Yunhao was about to say hello got stuck in his throat. Zhang Jingran opened his mouth, ready to answer Zhang Zhiyao's words, but his eyes turned and saw Zheng Yunhao, who was not far away from them, with an unpredictable expression. Zhang Jingran was immediately surprised for a second, and then smiled unnaturally, but it returned to normal in an instant, so naturally that people thought the last second was an illusion. Zhang Jingran greeted Zheng Yunhao very enthusiastically: "Zheng Yunhaoxi, you are here now, don't you need to participate in the show?"
Zhang Zhiyao glanced at her cousin in a teasing manner. She didn't expect that her cousin, who was usually gentle and gentlemanly, had such good acting skills. This was the fifth time she asked this question, but he could still act so seriously. No wonder many people said that he was like a smiling tiger at such a young age.
Zhang Jingran ignored Zhang Zhiyao's teasing and thought she was just trying to have fun despite the misery. However, he actually admired his little cousin's optimistic attitude. Zheng Yunhao didn't see Zhang Zhiyao's expression because she had her back to him and looked very sad.
Although Zhang Jingran's expression was very natural, Zheng Yunhao felt that he could no longer smile. He pulled the corners of his mouth and revealed a smile that was uglier than crying. He probably knew what level it was. In order not to destroy his "male god" signboard, this super ugly smile was just a flash, like a flash in the pan, and was quickly put away by him. Zheng Yunhao pursed his lips and asked about Jingrong's situation first: "How is Jingrong now?"
"It's not good. The doctor just said that if he doesn't wake up tomorrow, his life may be in danger." Zhang Jingran's eyes were filled with unspeakable worry. "And they are more worried that Jingrong himself doesn't want to wake up."
Zheng Yunhao's heart skipped a beat and he asked hurriedly, "But didn't they say the rescue was successful?"
"It's because the rescue was successful and all the indicators are normal. It's unscientific that she hasn't woken up yet."
"Then...is there any other way?"
"We have to wait until the experts hold a seminar before we can finalize the specific plan."
Jung Yunho pursed his lips, nodded, and sat there rather lost. Afterwards, he looked around but couldn't see Jing Rong's assistant and secretary. He couldn't help but ask, "Why are there only the two of you? Where are Secretary Lin and Assistant Xu?"
"They were handling business at the company before, so I didn't inform them. After all, too many people knew about this, and I was afraid it would have a negative impact on the company."
"Then you two, are there enough people?"
"That's enough. There will be special nurses taking care of her 24 hours a day, and we will also take turns sending friends to take care of her." Zhang Zhiyao answered first.
Zhang Jingran also nodded: "Yes, Jung Yunho xi, just go ahead and do your work, don't worry about this." Besides, Mr. G-Dragon will be back tomorrow, he should be willing to stay with their Chairman Xue every step of the way, and his role should be much greater than Mr. Jung Yunho.
Zhang Jingran thought about G-Dragon's incredible performance yesterday, and gradually had more expectations of him that he himself didn't even understand.
After a few more words, Zheng Yunhao couldn't help but bring the topic back to what he had heard at the beginning. He looked at Zhang Jingran and asked, "Zhang Jingran, when I came here before, I seemed to hear you talking about...pregnancy?"
The Zhang siblings immediately showed expressions of surprise and guilt, and their faces were obviously struggling. They wanted to tell him the truth but couldn't bear to see him get hurt. In fact, Zheng Yunhao had gradually understood by seeing this, and his heart slowly sank, but he didn't want to accept his fate until he heard those words of affirmation!
Zhang Jingran's acting skills definitely exploded today. He obviously wanted to tell Zheng Yunhao about this matter at the beginning, but he was afraid that telling it directly would not have a good effect. Not only would it fail to arouse his sympathy, but it would make him angry, which would be too costly. So he staged this scene. At this moment, his eyes, expression and tone were all very appropriate. It was not because his acting skills were really good, but because he was worried about Jingrong from the bottom of his heart.
"Please ask Jung Yunhoxi to keep this a secret for us. No one can know about this, including the president herself. She has absolutely no intention of living now. Her first reaction to this news will probably be to have an abortion. You know, the president always means what she says, and no one can change her decisions. However, the president's body has been severely injured this time, and her condition is very poor. The doctor does not agree with an abortion at all. If she does so, it is very likely that the president will never have her own children in the future!"
After hearing these words, Zheng Yunhao was shocked beyond words.
On the other side, G-Dragon finally ended his concert with a very satisfying feeling. Two hours seemed to have passed in the blink of an eye. The audience in the audience were still reluctant to leave. They did not want to wake up from their sweet dream and kept shouting Big Bang's name over and over again, asking for another one. However, the exhausted people went straight back to the lounge backstage, spread out in a line, lay on the ground gasping for breath in a very ungraceful manner, and their agent served them tea and water and massaged them very gently.
Jin Nanguo looked at Quan Zhilong with a look of satisfaction: "Not bad, Zhilong, I thought you were too exhausted from running back and forth like this and would be a little overwhelmed at today's concert, but I didn't expect you to perform better than ever before."
If it were in the past, Seungri would have sighed and said something like "This is the power of love", but now he obviously can't do such a thing, so he just sits there and listens.
Taeyang suddenly remembered something and said to G-Dragon, "G-Dragon, was Jingrong okay when you came over?"
"Yeah." Quan Zhilong didn't mention that he would see Jingrong like that after returning. Some things only needed to be known by him. Besides, everyone was outside. What difference would it make if they knew Jingrong was not well? Not being able to rush back would only cause more trouble. So Quan Zhilong continued to report good news instead of bad news. "When I came here, she was the one who sent me to the airport. She was in good spirits and seemed to be planning to go back to work."
"So she should be normal today?"
"Normal?" Before G-Dragon could say anything, Seungri sneered, "Brother, use your adjectives wisely. It's like she was abnormal before!"
Seungri's joke went down well with G-Dragon. He thought silently that she was indeed abnormal, with a split personality. The first personality was simply insane, without any self-awareness, and the second personality was even more extreme. In order to prove herself superior, she actually said that she was not Seol Kyung-young - if she was not Seol Kyung-young, how could it be possible!
G-Dragon learned a lot of information about split personality on the flight, and finally had to give a thumbs up to Jing Rong. There are not many people in the world who can split into two extremes like her.
He accidentally discovered that his ex was a weirdo. It was a really sad story.
Under Seungri's fearless joke, Taeyang decisively changed the way he asked: "Jiyong, do you remember whether Jingrong brought his cell phone when he went out today?"
Quan Zhilong nodded: "I brought it."
"But no one answered my calls, from noon until we went on stage... If, as you said, she brought her phone with her today and was at the company, she shouldn't have missed my calls. How could she not have called me back in all that time?"
Dacheng asked, "Maybe she doesn't have time to look at her phone?"
Top shook his head: "You're so busy from noon to night, with two meal breaks in between, that you don't even have time to check your phone?"
Come to think of it, Dacheng retreated silently. Jingrong might not answer Captain Quan's calls, or even anyone else's calls from their company, but she definitely wouldn't ignore Sun's calls. She even invited Sun to her friends' parties without hesitation, which showed their close relationship. The two possibilities of being busy and intentional were both ruled out, and he really couldn't think of a third possibility.
When Quan Zhilong heard Taeyang's last question, his face suddenly changed, and he stopped breathing heavily. He immediately turned over and sat up, saying to Jin Nanguo, "Brother, give me your phone."
Jin Nanguo gave it to him without hesitation. Quan Zhilong took the phone and his first reaction was to call Jingrong. However, unlike what Taeyang had said, no one answered the call. Instead, the phone was not turned on at all! Quan Zhilong began to feel uneasy and immediately called Secretary Lin. Secretary Lin on the other end must have been fast asleep. She still spoke with a thick nasal tone, but when she heard his voice, her speech instantly became clear.
"You said you couldn't get through to the president all day? Maybe she had something important to deal with. Don't worry too much. The president was in great shape today and even came to work this morning. We were just worried she couldn't handle it, so we all persuaded her to go back and rest, and that's why she left."
Quan Zhilong was still worried, but he didn't express his own concerns. Instead, he raised the question that Top had just raised. Secretary Lin thought for a while and suddenly smiled and said, "Oh, I remember!"
Quan Zhilong asked hurriedly: "What's the matter?"
"This afternoon, the vice president and the president went to visit a senior executive at the company. Now his phone is off. Maybe the discussion went smoothly and they're having a celebratory party. The president's phone is dead and he hasn't gone home to charge it yet?"
Secretary Lin's explanation was reasonable, but Quan Zhilong still had a question: "Since you wanted her to go back and rest, why did you ask her to visit clients later?"
"I don't know about that either..." Secretary Lin said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's just that the vice president said so. He didn't specify who he was going to visit."
G-Dragon was not interested in making things difficult for a girl who helped him like this. When it came to Zhang Jingran, he still had some trust in him. After all, he was the person that President Xue had high hopes for. If he couldn't become a son-in-law, he would train him as a half-son. Even for President Xue's face, he would not do anything to Jing Rong. Besides, Zhang Jingran himself did not look like a bad person. By the way, his sister was Jing Rong's best friend.
Thinking of this, G-Dragon thanked Secretary Lin and hung up the phone. Then he persuaded himself to believe Secretary Lin's explanation. Besides, it was only one night and he would go back tomorrow. He would then see the specific situation.
In fact, Big Bang's schedule at the end of this month is really too tight. Of course, everyone is like this at the end of the year, and it will only be tighter and more stressful. They just returned to Seoul from Manila on October 25th, and they have to go to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for a concert on the 27th. The world is too close, but it is enough that G-Dragon can go back to Seoul to see Jingrong openly. Maybe it is not a good thing for him to stay too long. At least this way, every time he goes back to see her, she has no reason to refuse.
G-Dragon will soon regret having this idea!
After constantly hypnotizing himself into believing Secretary Lin's explanation, G-Dragon and his friends returned to the hotel, and he went to bed early because he needed to conserve his energy so that he could catch the earliest flight tomorrow and return to Seoul as quickly as possible. His friends didn't have to rush, they could sleep in a little.
G-Dragon, who had only slept until a little after 2 a.m., was startled awake by his nightmare. He only remembered a terrifying scene: a monster biting into his heart, followed by a piercing pain that felt so real. He was awakened by the pain, not even able to see the monster clearly. Sitting in bed, G-Dragon touched his chest with lingering fear. He felt a sense of déjà vu about the pain, but he couldn't place it for a moment. Since he couldn't remember it, he didn't pay much attention to it. He thought of the phone number that kept getting disconnected, so he picked up the phone by the bed and called it, but it was still turned off. G-Dragon's eyes dimmed. In the darkness, under the dim light of his phone, G-Dragon's expression was a little gloomy. I'm afraid that besides his friends, even his fans wouldn't be able to accept it. They only love him when he's sunny and handsome, or when he's being cool and cute.
G-Dragon was in this gloomy mood and had a very hard time sleeping in the second half of the night. He opened his eyes almost at dawn, then got up, showered, changed clothes, dried his hair, packed his luggage, and then went out. Knowing his schedule, his assistant and Jin Nanguo were waiting outside. Jin Nanguo had become more and more accustomed to this boy who didn't stay in bed late - or perhaps he shouldn't be called a boy. G-Dragon only had a baby face now, but they didn't know that he had grown into a mature man. As a mature man, G-Dragon had more responsibilities on his shoulders. In addition to work and teammates, parents, love, and his own family in the future, his shoulders were able to bear all of this.
After returning to Seoul, G-Dragon threw his luggage to his assistant and agent and went directly to Jingrong's apartment. He still had the key to the apartment, but since Jingrong didn't ask for it back, he chose to forget about it. As soon as G-Dragon entered the apartment, he felt something was not right. The bed and quilt were all washed, and the bloodstains on the floor were also cleaned up, but G-Dragon just felt something was wrong. He was about to go directly to Xue Group to find someone, but as soon as he went out, he saw an aunt who had just come out of the elevator. The hourly aunt looked at him and was very happy: "Mr. Quan..." But halfway through, the aunt remembered that she heard someone say last time that her kind and elegant owner already had a fiancé, and the other party was not Mr. Quan in front of her, and Mr. Quan had not appeared in the apartment for a long time. The hourly aunt didn't know how to treat him for a while.
Quan Zhilong was unaware of the auntie's dilemma and asked everyone he could find. He finally asked the right person. The auntie, who had cleaned up all the bloodstains despite her fear, was the one who had the final say. Her employer was still unconscious, so she could only hold Quan Zhilong and nag him, repeating over and over again that young people should cherish their lives. Quan Zhilong was completely terrified and interrupted her chatter directly: "Auntie, you said... Jingrong, is she in the hospital again?"
The hourly aunt glanced around and whispered mysteriously into Quan Zhilong's ear, "You can't let anyone know this. Miss Xue is the president of the Xue Group and is quite wealthy. Their vice president gave me a large sum of money and asked me to make chicken soup and other things for Miss Xue to nourish her body. This is a very secret matter. I promised not to let anyone know, otherwise I will have to pay a penalty... But I know your relationship with Miss Xue, so it's not like you are someone else. Mr. Quan, are you going to see Miss Xue?"
In fact, the auntie's words were so beautifully spoken, and they were all taught by Zhang Jingran. He guessed that Quan Zhilong would go to Jingrong Apartment to find her as soon as he returned, so he asked the auntie to be prepared. If Quan Zhilong was unlucky and didn't meet the auntie at Jingrong Apartment, then he would definitely come back to Xue's Group, and then he could tell him in person. Unexpectedly, Quan Zhilong was so lucky. However, the auntie didn't tell Quan Zhilong directly which hospital and ward Jingrong was in. She said, "But the vice president surnamed Zhang has said that if anyone wants to see Miss Xue, they must contact him first. Mr. Quan, do you need Vice President Zhang's contact information?"
Quan Zhilong nodded: "Thank you, Auntie."
The author has something to say: Ah, I didn’t expect that this update would be so late. I am so awesome that no friends are waiting for me. I am so sad┭┮﹏┭┮
