"Where's Cheng Hu? Has he been caught?"
When Su Yaoyao uttered the name Cheng Hu, her tone was filled with hatred and coldness.
A glint of something unreadable flashed in Yu Chiyan's lowered eyes.
"Chu Ling has already found his trail; he can't escape."
Upon hearing this, Su Yaoyao closed her lifeless eyes, her cold voice carrying a hint of suppressed emotion.
"Let's go back."
Yu Chiyan didn't expect that she really just came to see Huo Xiting and didn't intend to wait at the door for Huo Xiting to wake up.
Yu Chiyan carefully carried her back to the ward, and didn't let her get out of bed the whole time.
Back on the hospital bed, she pulled the thin blanket over herself, not giving the man beside her a single glance.
Even when sitting, the man's body appeared exceptionally tall, yet at this moment he seemed somewhat lonely and uneasy.
Su Yaoyao's behavior is strange, very strange. Is Huo Xiting really that important to her? That she's so worried about him?
"I'm going to sleep now, you can leave."
Yu Chiyan's breath hitched, his thin, crimson lips pursed slightly, and his voice was somewhat strained.
"I won't leave, I'll stay with you."
As soon as Yu Chiyan finished speaking, his cell phone rang in his suit pocket.
It was Su Qingqing calling. He instinctively didn't want to answer, but after he hung up, she called again.
His brow twitched slightly, but he finally answered the call. As soon as the call connected, he heard Su Qingqing's panicked and helpless sobs.
"Chi Yan, there's lightning and thunder outside, I'm so scared... Chi Yan, I'm scared... During the lightning... I feel like someone is watching me from outside the window... What should I do, Chi Yan? Is someone jealous of how good you are to me and wants to hurt me? Chi Yan... Chi Yan, please come and save me!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Chiyan knew that Su Qingqing's depression had worsened. The doctor had said that severe depression can cause hallucinations...
And Su Qingqing looks very similar now.
He frowned and said gently, "Don't be afraid, everything will be alright. I'll be right there."
After the other person said something else, Yu Chiyan finally hung up the phone.
He looked at Su Yaoyao on the bed and saw that she had her eyes closed and her delicate face was full of fatigue, as if she had fallen asleep.
Yu Chiyan looked at her for a while, then finally got up, grabbed his coat, and drove through the heavy rain to the hospital where Su Qingqing was.
As soon as he left, Su Yaoyao opened her eyes.
What an ungrateful person she is! Just because of a few photos of Yu Chiyan, she suspects that Huo Xiting has ulterior motives for approaching her.
Su Yaoyao's eyes were filled with despair and gloom. Su Qingqing had only had a nightmare, and he had already forgotten his promise to stay with her, rushing off to find her in a panic.
In his eyes, she could never compare to Su Qingqing.
She was his first woman, and in his life, she will always be the one who is different.
Su Yaoyao curled up on her side, tears still falling from the corners of her eyes onto the pillow.
The thunder and rain outside the window continued incessantly, relentlessly ravaging this place.
...
The hospital where Su Qingqing works is a well-known psychiatric hospital.
Depression is also a mental disorder. Because her condition gradually worsened, she was transferred here in the afternoon.
There are many patients here. Some can move around freely, while others are seriously injured and are tightly bound to their beds with ropes, yet they still struggle and scream in agony.
However, at this time, most people were asleep, making it much quieter than when I came during the day.
Su Qingqing's ward was a private room that he had specially arranged for someone to prepare. He easily pushed open the door to her room, and a petite body suddenly rushed into his arms.
"Chi Yan! You're finally here. I was so scared..."
Her panicked look was like that of a little white rabbit encountering a big bad wolf. Yu Chiyan reached out and turned on the light, and what came into view was the girl's red eyes and her face covered with tears.
He frowned slightly and reached out to push her away a little; "Don't be afraid, it's just thunder."
Su Qingqing seemed to be startled. She tugged at Yu Chiyan's sleeve, gesturing for him to look out the pitch-black window.
"Chi Yan...look outside, do you see what looks like a dark shadow over there?"
Her voice was trembling, as if she had really seen something.
Yu Chiyan's eyes darkened. There was nothing outside except the rain.
"Chi Yan, I don't want to stay here anymore. I'm scared. I want to stay with you. Only you can protect me. I don't want to be here alone!"
She held Yu Chiyan's hand, her face full of pleading.
Seeing her almost insane state, Yu Chiyan felt a heavy weight in his heart.
"good."
Regardless of the circumstances, he was the one who let Su Qingqing down, which led to her suicide attempt and now she has developed depression. He should take responsibility for her current condition, and he cannot allow Su Qingqing to become the second Sese.
Yu Chiyan's single, seemingly emotionless yet gentle word brought a smile to Su Qingqing's face.
"Chi Yan, I knew you wouldn't abandon me!"
She was so excited that she wanted to hug Yu Chiyan, but the man moved away.
"I'll call Jiang Chen and ask him to clean the house. I'll take you there now."
Su Qingqing seemed unconcerned by his deliberate avoidance of her, and smiled as she agreed.
It was still raining heavily when they left. Su Qingqing was dressed in thin clothes, so Yu Chiyan's suit jacket fell steadily on her shoulders.
He held up an umbrella, and the puddles on the ground were almost up to his expensive leather shoes. Su Qingqing's white shoes were completely soaked, and her skirt was unsurprisingly wet even when she lifted it up.
The only dry things on her body were her hair and shoulders.
Because Yu Chiyan tilted the umbrella towards her, while his own shoulder was already soaked through.
...
Su Yaoyao listened to the rain outside and couldn't sleep all night. As soon as dawn broke, she stood guard at the door of Huo Xiting's ward.
Fortunately, the doctor brought good news in the end: he was out of danger.
Su Yaoyao was so happy she almost cried; "Doctor, when will he wake up?"
After a moment of contemplation, the doctor said, "Mr. Huo has lost too much blood and has three stab wounds, one of which is extremely dangerous and almost damaged his heart. Although he is no longer in danger, it is still hard to say when he will wake up."
Su Yaoyao stood there, stunned, the joy on her face gradually fading; "You...you mean...he'll become a vegetable?"
"That's not necessarily true. People in a vegetative state are more likely to become vegetative, especially those who have suffered brain trauma. Mr. Huo doesn't have this condition, so there's no need to worry about him becoming vegetative. However, it's possible for him to remain in a coma for ten days to half a month."
The moment those words were spoken, Su Yaoyao finally felt relieved. Thank goodness, as long as he was alright.
Her tearful eyes looked out the window at the person on the hospital bed.
Huo Xiting, you must wake up soon.
Feeling much better, Su Yaoyao returned to the ward. Jiang Chen had already bought breakfast and put it on the table. When he saw Su Yaoyao, he quickly greeted her.
"Madam, you're back. This is breakfast that the young master personally instructed me to buy for you. Please eat it while it's hot."
Su Yaoyao instantly recalled what Huo Xiting had said to her in the ambulance.
Remember to eat well while you wait for him...
