Chapter 140 Because, persistence is worth it.
In the senior ward.
The doctors gave the patient a quick checkup, communicated with the family about the patient's condition, and then left.
An Yuening accompanied Xu Jialan to the bathroom to wash her face.
Shen Xichuan set his eyes on Madam Shen and others.
He didn't speak.
But you can tell what he wants to ask by looking at his eyes.
After Mrs. Shen sighed, she told him briefly what had happened during the time he was unconscious.
In particular, Xu Jialan went to the temple to pray to Buddha so that he could wake up safely.
The bodyguard secretly took several photos of Xu Jialan bowing three times and kowtow nine times on the steps at the bottom of the temple.
Mrs. Shen saved it in her phone.
She opened it directly and handed it to Shen Xichuan to see.
"Luckily, I have Xiao Ning's medicine. Otherwise, if she had taken such a strong and sincere knock, it would have been difficult for her to avoid being disfigured."
Shen Xichuan lowered his eyes, looked at the photos on his phone, and his Adam's apple slid.
The distress in his eyes was hard to hide.
During the period of coma, he was not completely unconscious.
Sometimes, he also heard what they said.
He heard what Xu Jialan said that day.
“Chen Xichuan, if I have a connection with Buddha, I will pray to the gods to be your guardian angel and keep you safe.”
Every word.
Awakening.
He was under the quilt, gently stroking the amulet.
The amulet comes in a sealed bag.
It was always placed beside him.
That's what he saw when he woke up in the emergency room.
Shen Yankai wanted to say something to him.
But footsteps were heard.
The words are on the tip of my tongue.
He still didn't say it.
Shen Xichuan returned the phone to Mrs. Shen and looked in the direction of the door.
Xu Jialan walked in with a pale face.
The hair on both sides of her body was quite wet.
It was obvious that she had lost a lot of weight and her complexion was not very good.
There are still faint marks on the forehead.
Shen Xichuan curled his lips slightly and stretched out his hand to her, “Baby, come here.”
Xu Jialan walked over and placed his hand in his palm.
"Why don't you rest?"
She tucked the quilt in for him out of habit.
Nor did she notice that his other hand, which was under the quilt, was holding a peace amulet.
Shen Xichuan noticed her movements, and his eyes darkened slightly.
"I've slept for so long, I don't feel like sleeping anymore."
He didn't want to fall asleep again.
It always leaves her alone and scared.
Xu Jialan paused and said, "Okay."
Mrs. Shen and others saw that Shen Xichuan had woken up and was fine, so they didn't stay here any longer.
They also thought that at this time, the young couple must have a lot to say.
Madam Shen looked at the two of them and said, "Lanlan has returned from the pharmacy and hasn't eaten anything yet. I'll go back and ask the chef at home to make some nutritious meals for you."
Shen Xichuan had just woken up and couldn’t eat too much.
Only liquid food can be eaten.
The most important thing is Xu Jialan’s food.
"Okay, thanks, Mom."
"We're all family, no need to thank me."
After saying hello, they all left the ward together.
An Yuening saw that the smile on Xu Jialan's face had returned a lot, and she left with Shen Yankai with peace of mind.
…
Xu Jialan was sitting on a chair next to the bed.
The two of them still held hands tightly.
Shen Xichuan saw the faint dark circles under her eyes.
"Are you sleepy?" he asked suddenly.
Xu Jialan was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"
Shen Xichuan gently moved to the side.
He patted the side and said, "Come up."
Xu Jialan stared at him blankly, not moving.
Shen Xichuan squeezed her hand.
"Be good and listen to me."
Xu Jialan took off his coat, moved gently, and lay down beside him.
I was afraid that I would get him hurt.
Even if it has healed.
Shen Xichuan looked at her, almost lying on the edge of the bed, helpless.
"Come closer."
Xu Jialan didn't move.
“I’m not that fragile,” he said.
At this time, Xu Jialan moved a little closer.
Shen Xichuan was injured and couldn’t hug her, so he kept holding her hand.
Approaching the man, Xu Jialan smelled the familiar hormonal scent coming from him.
After so many days in the hospital, the light sandalwood scent on his body has been replaced by disinfectant.
Even so, she felt safe.
I wasn't sleepy at all, but suddenly I became drowsy.
Shen Xichuan's gaze remained on her forehead, wanting to touch it but not daring to.
His heart was burning with pain.
"Does it hurt?"
Xu Jialan was confused and didn't react for a while.
"What?"
Only then did Shen Xichuan whisper, “Forehead.”
"Does it hurt?"
Hearing this, Xu Jialan's eyes became clearer.
Know what he is asking.
She subconsciously licked her dry lips.
"fine."
It hurts.
But at least it was all worth it.
He is awake now.
So it doesn’t hurt anymore.
Shen Xichuan looked at her steadily, his eyes deep.
After a few seconds, he gave in and sighed, "There won't be a next time."
Xu Jialan was startled and turned his head to look at him, "What?"
Under the quilt, the two held hands.
Shen Xichuan replied, “I won’t let you worry about me anymore.”
He felt heartbroken.
Despite all these injuries, he never frowned and never regretted anything.
However, after learning about what she had done after he fell into a coma, he felt both heartbroken and bitter.
She obviously didn't have to endure this.
Xu Jialan looked at him quietly.
After a long while, she said, “Shen Xichuan.”
"Um?"
"Over the past decade, I've only done two things, and I've persisted in doing them for ten years."
Xu Jialan looked at the white ceiling above his head.
"Ten years is a long time, and persistence can get tiring, but I've never chosen to give up, not even the thought."
Shen Xichuan looked at her, “Why?”
Xu Jialan chuckled, "Because persistence is worth it."
Shen Xichuan saw soft waves floating in her cold eyes.
His heart trembled, and he asked subconsciously, "Can I ask, which two things are they?"
Xu Jialan paused for two seconds and said, "We must persist in developing drugs that can treat or even cure cancer for cancer patients."
She arched her eyebrows, "This is what I have always insisted on."
"What else?"
Two things.
There is one more thing.
Xu Jialan smiled and did not answer the question.
“When you want to give up something, think about it: which is more meaningful, persistence or giving up?”
"But you must remember, whether you persist or give up, I will always be here."
“Always.”
She knew him so well.
How could I not know what he wanted to do?
