Chapter 320 The patient needs company
Li Luo couldn't imagine that Shang Wanwan's hands could no longer hold a paintbrush, or were even useless.
The two sisters are extremely beautiful, but Li Luo cannot tolerate even a small pimple on their body, let alone a disability.
She was relieved to hear that Shang Wanwan was fine.
"What's going on? What old man, grandpa?"
Huo Dongming calmed down and asked them what happened.
Chen Xin knew that her sister was in serious condition, and with Huo Dongming around, she could tell him everything without worry.
"The old man hasn't seen his daughter for such a long time, and he knows she's dead, so he won't suddenly come and mess things up."
I always feel that this matter is too strange.
"Grandpa hasn't bothered us for almost eight years. The first time I saw him, when I was ten, he and my parents had a big fight.
He didn’t say anything about touching my mother’s paintings. Besides, he lives so far away that it’s not easy for him to go there.”
Huo Dongming fell into deep thought.
"I will get to the bottom of this matter."
He chatted with the siblings for a few minutes and then went back to see Shang Wanwan.
After treating her wounds, Shang Wanwan was moved to a VIP ward. With thick gauze wrapped around her hands, she looked much calmer than before.
"Wanwan."
Li Luo and Chen Xin entered the ward together. Huo Dongming happened to go out to receive a phone call.
"Sister, Ah Xin."
Shang Wanwan looked helplessly at her hands that were wrapped like rice dumplings.
She didn't feel anything just now, but now it hurts so much that tears are streaming down her face.
Fortunately, the doctor gave her painkillers.
"How do you feel?"
Li Luo laughed with tears on his face, "How could you be so stupid? The painting is gone, so it's gone. You also rushed into the fire. Look at your hands."
"No, my father gave me these paintings. How can I just watch them get burned?"
Chen Xin stood aside for a long time without saying a word. He spoke only after they finished their conversation.
"Mom is gone now. Just think of those words as going to heaven with her. Maybe she herself is reluctant to leave. Sister, don't be too sad.
I see my brother-in-law has just contacted the best doctor for you, so you should just take good care of yourself and stop having any more crazy thoughts."
Chen Xin also looked very sad.
Shang Wanwan sniffed: "I know you are comforting me."
Li Luo gently tapped her nose.
"Look at you. You're already a mother, but you still make others worry about you."
Li Luo said calmly: "You should thank your ex-husband this time."
He was the one who found the doctor, and as soon as he appeared, almost all the trauma specialists in the hospital arrived.
Shang Wanwan remained silent.
It was a rare opportunity for Li Luo to speak for Huo Dongming.
"I really can't rest assured that you're alone. I think you should let your ex-husband take care of you these days."
It's not that she is unwilling to accompany Shang Wanwan, she is just afraid that she is not as attentive to Shang Wanwan as Huo Dongming is.
"I can do it alone."
She was still stubborn, but her tone was not as strong as before.
While they were talking, Huo Dongming came in from outside with a cell phone.
"I have something to do and I'm leaving first. Huo Dongming, I'll leave Wanwan to you."
Li Luo deliberately left space for them.
Shang Wanwan was speechless, but Chen Xin was naturally interested.
"Sister, I'll come see you tomorrow."
The brother and sister left the ward at the same time, leaving only Huo Dongming and Shang Wanwan.
Huo Dongming walked over and sat down on the edge of the bed.
He reached out and lifted her hair to her ears, speaking with a look of heartache.
"Why are you so stupid? You almost lost your hand and became disabled for life."
She exudes ultimate perfection from head to toe. Could she really accept a pair of hands that have been burnt to the point of being deformed?
And she loves painting so much that it means she won't be able to paint anymore.
“I have no regrets.”
Shang Wanwan raised her eyes, tears welling up in them.
"That was my mother's life's work. I just hate that I didn't leave even one painting for her."
Her heart was filled with regret.
Huo Dongming gently took her into his arms, and this time Shang Wanwan did not refuse.
Perhaps, only at this moment, when she was most vulnerable, did she allow herself to indulge her feelings for Huo Dongming a little.
She is too tired.
Five years ago, she lived in his confinement. She wanted to show happiness and joy to the world. In order to leave him, she struggled desperately, but lost her heart while gaining freedom.
No one is perfect.
Whichever path you choose, you lose the other.
No matter which path you choose, you will regret it.
"It has already happened, don't think about it anymore. If you really feel guilty, just take good care of yourself. I think, with your talent and memory, you can replicate your mother's paintings, right?"
Huo Dongming's words were like a ray of light that suddenly shone into her dark heart.
Yeah, why didn't she think of that.
The paintings were burned.
But with her gift for photographic memory and her sensitivity to art, she can accurately reproduce any painting she has seen.
Back then, the old man once gave her an ancient painting to restore, but even the best cultural relic appraisal master could not tell any traces of restoration from her work.
Huo Dongming's suggestion immediately hit her heart.
Shang Wanwan's originally dim eyes began to light up.
She slowly got up from his arms, and saw a hint of happiness in his expression.
Huo Dongming felt slightly relieved when he saw the former Shang Wanwan.
"I was planning to bring you home to see Grandpa this week, but now we'll have to wait."
Seeing that she was quite happy, he told her that his grandfather knew she was back and wanted to see her.
Shang Wanwan felt very sorry.
"Tell grandpa that I'm away on a long trip and I'll visit him when I come back."
Huo Dongming couldn't help but touch her head and stroke her long hair.
"You, he is old, but he is not confused. Do you think he will believe such a bad lie?"
Shang Wanwan was a little lost in his doting, and couldn't help but laugh after hearing what he said.
"Yeah, it's not Grandpa who is confused, it's me who is confused."
Nothing can be hidden from him, so I can only wait until her hand gets better before going.
Huo Dongming gently held her waist and slowly put her back on the hospital bed.
"Don't worry about anything. The child is with Special Assistant Zhou and Aunt Zhang. Don't worry. I will always be with you in the hospital."
Shang Wanwan's expression paused for a long time, then she said calmly.
"Don't you have anyone else to accompany you?"
The cautiousness in her eyes made Huo Dongming feel painful and helpless.
"No, if I still have anyone to accompany me now, it's only you and the child."
Gao Ying: He just went there.
There are nurses on duty around the clock, and there are bodyguards outside, so there is no need for him to be the only man to accompany her day and night.
Qin Meng would take care of Gao Ying and wipe her body every day.
Huo Dongming didn't say anything. After all, he was a human being with a heart made of flesh and blood, so he just turned a blind eye to Qin Meng's behavior.
Patients still need someone to accompany them.
Qin Meng is a woman and is easier to take care of than him.
Shang Wanwan withdrew her gaze from him, and her cheeks became hot involuntarily.
