"It's alright, it's alright. It's just a minor injury, but it will heal with time and rest," Xi Yuan said thankfully.
The doctor gave a few more instructions before leaving.
“Let’s go in and see him,” Shen Yu said.
Ye Xinning said slowly, "Uncle Chen, I won't go in. You guys go ahead."
After she finished speaking, Xi Yuan took her hand and asked, "Is there something important you need to take care of?"
Ye Xinning pursed her lips, but before she could speak, Xi Yuan said, "Alright, no matter how important it is, let's go in and see him first. We're already here, there's no reason not to go in."
Shen Yu chimed in, "Yeah, Ningning, we're already at the hospital, let's go in and see that kid. I guess it's not important whether we go or not, the only person that kid really wants to see is you."
After much hesitation, Ye Xinning finally agreed to go in with Shen Yu and Xi Yuan to see Shen Lin.
When the three of them went in together, Shen Lin was sitting on the hospital bed. Xi Yuan looked at the various injuries on Shen Lin's face and felt extremely distressed.
"Those who survive a great calamity are destined for good fortune."
Shen Yu patted Shen Lin on the shoulder, "It's good that you're alright. You little rascal, I don't know how many more times you'll make me worry in this lifetime."
"I'm fine."
"You have no idea how worried we were when we saw the news. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm."
"Yes, thankfully you're alright, but the doctor just said your injury is still quite serious, and you'll need to rest more for a while."
"Um."
Xi Yuan and Shen Yu chatted back and forth, and everyone started talking, but Ye Xinning remained seated and didn't say a word from beginning to end.
Shen Lin's gaze remained fixed on Ye Xinning, whose head was lowered, so he couldn't see her expression.
Xi Yuan noticed Shen Lin's gaze and gave Shen Yu a look, which Shen Yu immediately understood.
"Chen Lin, your Aunt Xi and I have other things to attend to. Since you're not seriously injured, we'll be leaving now."
"good."
After Shen Yu and Xi Yuan left, Ye Xinning also wanted to leave.
"If you have nothing else, I'll be going now. You should get some rest."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and prepared to leave.
But Shen Lin reached out and took her hand. "Can you talk to me for a bit?"
Ye Xinning turned around. Shen Lin rarely asked her to do something so earnestly. Ye Xinning was a little surprised, but then she thought about it and realized that it was normal.
He had just experienced such a life-or-death situation, so it's normal for him to behave abnormally.
But should we let her stay and talk to him?
Ye Xinning fell silent.
Shen Lin seemed to sense her hesitation. "Are there so many things you need to worry about between us? Is it really so difficult for you to just sit down and talk to me?"
Ye Xinning pursed her lips, but in the end, she didn't say anything and sat down by Shen Lin's hospital bed.
Seeing her action, Shen Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at Ye Xinning sitting to one side. She wasn't wearing makeup today, and her face had lost its usual coldness, instead showing more gentleness.
The moment she hugged him at the airport, he could clearly feel her worry and unease, and Shen Lin knew that it was not an illusion.
At that moment, he was genuinely worried about him.
"Ningning."
"Hmm." Ye Xinning looked up at Shen Lin upon hearing the voice.
Shen Lin wore a faint smile. When facing her, his usual indifference vanished, replaced by deep affection in his eyes.
"Do you know what I was thinking at that moment on the plane?"
Ye Xinning raised her eyes and looked at Shen Lin. "I don't know."
"When the plane started making announcements, when the plane started to shake, when someone next to me was crying in panic, the only person I thought of was you."
Ye Xinning twitched her lips but didn't say anything.
Shen Lin continued, "People say that when a person faces danger, many things come to mind, but at that moment, I only thought of you. In my nearly thirty years, I've had regrets from my childhood. As a child, I watched my mother pass away on her sickbed, and I couldn't do anything about it. At that time, I told myself that I must become stronger, because only by becoming stronger could I protect the people around me. Besides that, I also harbored resentment towards my father when I was young. I resented my father for not saving my mother, and I resented him for searching for so many people after my mother's passing. So I told myself that I would never love anyone in this life. Then, I was fortunate enough to meet you. Ningning, meeting you five years ago, I felt the light. It was also through meeting you that I realized how happy it is to be loved by someone in this world. Five years ago, I thought I could walk with you forever, but I never expected that I would lose my memory."
As Shen Lin recounted the past, Ye Xinning clenched her hands tightly.
She thought she could listen to Shen Lin talk about these things as an observer, but she was wrong. Listening to Shen Lin talk about his life, she felt more oppressed than anything else.
As for her past with Shen Lin...
It's a pity.
Shen Lin's voice still echoed in my ears, "During the time I had amnesia, I did many bad things to you and made you suffer a lot. Your choice to divorce me and not forgive me is the punishment I deserve. There were times when I told myself that if I couldn't keep you, then let it go and let everything become the past. But every time I saw you talking to other people, every time I thought about you becoming another man's woman, I was so jealous that I went crazy. I couldn't accept that I wasn't by your side. At the moment the plane crashed, what I thought was that not being able to get your forgiveness was the only regret in my life."
Ye Xinning could sense Shen Lin's sincerity, and she knew that Shen Lin was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
"Chen Lin, have you ever considered that the reason we've separated so many times might be that we're simply not suited to be together?"
After a long silence, Ye Xinning finally spoke.
"I don't know what your criteria for judging whether someone is suitable or not are, but if I could have another chance to hold your hand, I would never let go in this lifetime, and I would do everything I can to be good to you."
Shen Lin's answer made Ye Xinning stiffen. She looked into Shen Lin's eyes, and at that moment, she saw the determination in his eyes.
At that moment, Ye Xinning was certain that the man in front of her truly had her in his heart and eyes.
