Su Ruojin's eyes widened as she hastily wiped away her tears and stared intently at Xiao Yanchu.
She was certain that Xiao Yanchu's fingers had moved just now, but now Xiao Yanchu was completely still.
"Yanchu, you can hear me, right? Wake up quickly, and once you're awake, we'll go to Yunqi to bring Grandma back, okay?"
Su Ruojin called softly.
Xiao Yanchu twitched his index finger slightly again.
This time, Su Ruojin saw it clearly.
Xiao Yanchu has woken up!
Xiao Yanchu has woken up!
Tears streamed down her face as she murmured, "Yan Chu, Yan Chu..."
At this moment, Xiao Yanchu felt as if he were walking in complete darkness, unable to find any direction to move forward.
Suddenly he heard Ah Jin's voice, saying that if he didn't wake up, someone would try to take Ah Jin away from him.
How can this be!
Xiao Yanchu frantically ran around, hearing A Jin calling his name repeatedly.
Ah Jin, wait for me, wait for me!
Ah Jin's voice grew clearer and clearer, and Xiao Yanchu ran wildly toward the sound, eventually rushing toward a beam of light.
He felt as if his eyelids weighed a ton, and it took all his strength to slowly open them a crack.
Through his blurry vision, he saw someone holding his hand.
Without even looking closely, I knew it was his Ajin.
"Ah... Ah Jin," Xiao Yanchu called out softly, his voice extremely hoarse.
But for Su Ruojin, this sound was like heavenly music.
She smiled, tears streaming down her face: "You're awake."

To make it easier for Ye Xunzhi to take care of the three patients, Xiao Yanchu also stayed at the General's Mansion until he had fully recovered.
Consort Jiang visited him every day and was relieved to see that her son was slowly recovering.
Madam Su felt somewhat guilty, after all, the Regent had suffered such a serious injury because of Jin'er.
"Your Highness, we are so grateful to the Regent for saving my daughter's life. The entire Su family will forever remember the Regent's great kindness."
Consort Jiang did not blame her at all. Instead, she comforted Madam Su: "Madam Su, this is what Chu'er should do. As a man, what kind of man would he be if he could not protect Miss Su?"
Hearing the Empress Dowager's words, Madam Su gave a bitter smile to herself.
The meaning behind the Empress Dowager's words was already quite clear.
In fact, given Xiao Yanchu's character, the fact that he risked his life for Jin'er this time shows that Madam Su was at ease entrusting Jin'er to him.
However, as the regent, Xiao Yanchu would not be able to have only Jin'er as his queen consort in the future.
The men of the Su family do not take concubines, and Su Yunfeng only has one wife, Madam Su. Naturally, Madam Su hopes that her daughter can also live a life like hers.
She would rather her daughter marry into an ordinary family than have her daughter share a husband with another woman.
Once Jin'er is feeling better, Madam Su plans to have a serious talk with her daughter to see what she thinks.
If the daughter is also unwilling to share a husband with another, even if the other party is the regent, the Su family can ensure that Jin'er follows her own heart and does not have to bow down to anyone.
The news of the Su family's eldest daughter's recovery also spread.
The prominent families of the capital city began to have their own ideas again.
Before Su Ruojin had fully recovered, many ladies from prominent families had already taken the opportunity of visiting her to probe the Su family's intentions.
