Having said all that, if Ye Xinning were to force Ye Zhimu to go back, it would seem rather heartless.
She nodded.
The others were also perceptive and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Ye Xinning was willing to stay.
"Big brother, Zhou Jiamu and I have other things to attend to. Sister Xinning and Mumu will stay here with you, so we'll be leaving now."
Su Xiangsi and Su Wan smiled and said, "We're leaving now. You get some rest."
Everyone left, leaving only the two children and Ye Xinning in the ward to keep Shen Lin company.
Ye Zhimu knelt beside Shen Lin's bed and said, "Dad, we were all so worried and scared while you were unconscious."
Shen Lin reached out and gently patted Ye Zhimu's head. "I'm fine now."
"Dad, would you like some water?" Mo Jing pointed to the water glass next to him.
Shen Lin was about to say no, but Ye Xinning had already gone over and poured him some water.
Seeing this, Shen Lin said nothing more. After being in a coma for three months, seeing his two children again, Shen Lin felt for the first time that such a peaceful life was a rare kind of happiness.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine once I wake up, and I'll stay with you from now on."
Ye Zhimu opened her eyes wide, looked at Shen Lin, and asked uncertainly, "Really?"
Ye Xinning handed the glass of water she had poured to Shen Lin. Shen Lin looked at her, as if responding to her pouring the water, or as if responding to the question Ye Zhimu had asked earlier, "Yes, of course it's true."
Ye Xinning pursed her lips, sat down to the side, and didn't say anything.
Throughout the time, Shen Lin stayed with the two children, talking to them without disturbing them.
Aunt Xi didn't come in until it was almost time for Shen Lin to rest.
"Ningning." Aunt Xi led the two children away. "I'm taking the two children back with me. You stay here with Chen Lin."
Ye Xinning spoke up, "Aunt Xi, please stay. I'll take the children back."
When Shen Lin was still asleep, she stayed with him without thinking anything of it, but now that Shen Lin is awake, she feels that something is not quite right.
"I probably haven't been resting well these past few days, I keep having a headache, sigh... Ningning, why don't you stay and take care of me for a bit, I'll come back and relieve you once I've rested?"
Ye Xinning, "..."
Since Aunt Xi was an elder and had said so, Ye Xinning hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.
After everyone left, only Ye Xinning and Shen Lin remained in the ward.
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Xinning sat down by the hospital bed, not looking at Shen Lin, and said in a very indifferent tone, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll have Wenzhu prepare it."
"It will be all right."
Upon hearing this answer, Ye Xinning pursed her lips, thinking that this person probably didn't understand their own physical condition.
I just woke up, how could I possibly eat anything?
She messaged Wenzhu, suggesting a few dishes that would be suitable for Shen Lin to eat.
Just then, a message came in from his mother, Ye Rouxin, asking about Shen Lin's situation.
Ye Xinning was holding her phone when she pressed send. Just as she pressed send, a pair of large hands appeared in front of her and snatched her phone away.
Ye Xinning was taken aback, and when she looked up, she saw Shen Lin's enlarged face.
The man held her phone in his hand.
When he spoke, his voice was hoarse and deep, exuding endless charm, "What's on your phone? Is it that interesting?"
Ye Xinning was slightly taken aback, his breathing becoming somewhat unstable due to the sudden closeness.
"It's nothing, my mom just sent me a message."
"What did Mom say?"
Shen Lin never seemed to have changed how he addressed Ye Rouxin, but in the past, she really didn't care and didn't care how Shen Lin called her.
But now, hearing Shen Lin say that again, she felt a little strange.
"Alright, you should lie back down now."
I've never seen someone lie in bed for three months before waking up, or someone go through such repeated ups and downs.
Shen Lin reached out and this time placed his hand directly on her waist.
Ye Xinning blushed instantly. She lowered her head, her hair covering most of her face.
She wanted to push Shen Lin away, but considering his health, she had to be gentle.
“Sinking down.”
She tried to persuade him, "Let go of me."
"You were very worried about me during the three months I was in a coma, weren't you?"
Ye Xinning lowered her head, saying one thing but meaning another, "I didn't."
Shen Lin said, "Then why did I hear someone next to me saying that they wanted to tell me something?"
Ye Xinning stared wide-eyed at Shen Lin, "You know?"
Shen Lin's lips curled up, then he smiled and said, "Although I haven't woken up, I've been feeling like someone is talking in my ear these past few days. I think if I don't wake up soon, my people might all run away."
Ye Xinning realized that the "my person" that Shen Lin was referring to was himself.
She lowered her head even further. "Who's on your side?"
Shen Lin looked at the shy woman in front of him, his eyes sparkling.
He lowered his voice and spoke softly, "What do you want to tell me? While I was unconscious?"
Ye Xinning looked away, glancing around the ward but refusing to look at him. "It's nothing, you misheard me. I have nothing to say to you."
Shen Lin asked again, "Really?"
"real."
Seeing that she was unwilling to talk, Shen Lin did not force her, but simply continued to hold her.
Ye Xinning didn't want this to happen, "Shen Lin, you..."
She was about to say, "Shen Lin, let go of me," but before she could finish speaking, she heard Shen Lin's low voice in her ear.
"Don't move, let me hold you for a little while, just a little while, okay?"
Ye Xinning felt that Shen Lin, who had woken up again, seemed to know how to manipulate her heart even better than before.
Time passed second by second. Ye Xinning was held in Shen Lin's arms. At first, no one spoke. The ward was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Later, Shen Lin started to speak, and gradually, in this situation, there was a sense of peace of mind.
Do you know how I felt that night when I was waiting for you downstairs?
Ye Xinning did not speak.
Shen Lin didn't seem to really want her to give an answer, and he continued speaking.
“When you returned to Jiangcheng, I thought you were going to be with Cheng Yuhuai, but no, you had no feelings for him at all. Seeing him by your side suddenly felt incredibly painful. At that moment, I even thought that the only person in this world who could stand by your side was me.”
Ye Xinning muttered, "You're being paranoid. Director Cheng is a really good person. I don't like him, not because he's not as good as you."
"Yes, you don't like him. The reason I mustered up the courage to come to you again is because you don't like him. I know that, Ningning. Although you kept pushing me away, you love me in your heart. If you didn't love me, why would you have given birth to Mumu? If you didn't love me, why would you have lost control of your emotions and cried like that when I woke up from my coma?"
