Chapter 225: Background Cannon Fodder Who Died an Unexpected Death (5)
A month later, Lin Shichu's injuries had almost healed. The knife wound had healed, leaving only fresh scars. His ribs and leg bones had also healed. Although he could not exert force, he could move freely in a wheelchair if he was careful.
Lin Shichu hadn't seen her father for a month. Fearing that he would worry, she decided to go see him. As for the wheelchair issue, she said that she accidentally broke her leg. It was impossible to tell him the real situation. Even though Lin Shichu has recovered now, the old man had suffered too much stress and could not get excited, so there was no need to let him worry about his daughter.
Lin Shichu was sent to Lin's father's ward by the nurse. When Lin's father saw her, he was very surprised and made unclear sounds from his mouth, which sounded like he was calling Lin Shichu's name.
Because Lin Shichu called him before she came and told him that she had fallen and broken her leg, so when Lin's father saw her in a wheelchair, he was not too worried.
Most of Mr. Lin's hair was white. He was lying on the bed covered with a quilt, his body barely moving, which showed how thin he was.
He has a thin and pale face, and the left side of his face is slightly stiff and unnatural. This is a sequelae of a stroke. At first, he couldn't move the left side of his body at all, but after several months of rehabilitation, he can finally move it, but it's still very stiff.
"Dad, how is your rehabilitation going recently? Can you handle it?" Lin Shichu held Lin's father's wrist and quietly felt his pulse. Sure enough, he found blockage and atrophy in his meridians. This was because the blood could not circulate after the stroke. If he could not continue to exercise, the situation would become more and more serious.
"Okay, okay..." Lin's father answered vaguely, looking at Lin Shichu with loving eyes, then looked at her legs and told her, "Okay... okay... take care of... your injury..."
"Dad, my fracture is almost healed and the plaster has been removed. I just can't exert any force. Don't worry about it. You just need to eat well and do rehabilitation. I'll be waiting for you to come home after you recover." Lin Shichu smiled and acted coquettishly with him, not letting him indulge in the heavy past.
Father Lin used his more flexible right hand to touch Lin Shichu's hair and said intermittently: "Thank... you for your hard work... You, your brother..."
"Dad, are you asking about big brother's condition?" When Lin Shichu saw him mention big brother Lin, he comforted him, "Dad, don't worry, the doctor said that big brother's condition is maintaining very well, maybe he will wake up in a few months. I will go to see him later and talk to him. He is so filial, even for dad, he will try his best to wake up."
Father Lin's eyes were red, and he gently patted the back of Lin Shichu's hand with trembling hands. Even if he had a thousand words to say, he couldn't say them.
Lin Shichu understood his mood and talked to him for a long time to calm him down before leaving.
Brother Lin and Lin's father are in the same private hospital, just on different floors. Lin's father has difficulty moving, and the doctor is worried that seeing his eldest son's condition will upset him, so he does not allow him to be sent to see Brother Lin.
Lin Shichu came to the ward of his eldest brother Lin Shiyu, and the nurse was feeding him liquid food through a nasogastric tube.
"Miss, are you here to see Mr. Lin?" The nurse greeted her when he saw her.
Lin Shichu quickly said, "Don't worry about me, just continue to feed my brother." The nurse then concentrated on feeding Lin Shiyu.
Lin Shichu looked at the nasogastric tube and thought how painful it must be to have a tube inserted from the nose into the stomach.
Lin Shiyu was lying on the bed, so thin that his cheeks were sunken, and his face was a lifeless gray with his eyes closed. If it weren't for the electrocardiogram that was still beating, at first glance one would have thought he was a corpse.
Originally he was a tall and handsome man, but now he has become a vegetable. His hair has been shaved down to the roots, and there is an obvious scar of craniotomy on his scalp. In addition, his face is so thin that he no longer has the charm that could charm so many young girls in the past. He looks like a terminally ill patient, and it is heartbreaking to look at him.
While the caregiver went out to deal with the feeding tools, Lin Shichu pretended to caress his brother and took out an interstellar version of a powerful recovery potion from the space for him to use. Of course, it was a diluted potion whose effect was hundreds of times worse. After all, if Lin Shiyu suddenly recovered from a vegetative state into a strong man, it would become a thriller or a science fiction film.
Therefore, Lin Shichu could only give him diluted recovery medicine to gradually improve his body so that he could wake up naturally. In this way, the doctor would not find any abnormalities. When Lin Shiyu finally woke up, people would only think that it was another "miracle of love" in which a vegetative patient woke up.
After what happened last night, Lin Shichu instructed the nurse to take good care of Lin Shiyu before leaving.
After returning home from the hospital, Lin Shichu picked out a whole set of pigeon blood ruby jewelry from the companion space, including necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and rings. The inlaid rubies are rich in color, bright in crystals, and dazzling, with exquisite craftsmanship and delicate shapes. The whole set of pigeon blood ruby jewelry placed together vividly interprets what luxury and grandeur are.
This set of jewelry seemed to be the one she had worn when she traveled through time and space and became a queen in ancient times. Since it was produced by the royal family, its value would be even higher. Lin Shichu had a lot of such jewelry, so it would not be a pity to sell it.
Lin Shichu called his versatile assistant, Assistant Wen, and handed him the pigeon blood ruby jewelry: "Find an auction house to help me sell it."
When Assistant Wen saw the jewelry, he was immediately amazed. He asked in a daze, "Are you really going to sell it? It's so beautiful. It would be a pity to sell it."
"If we don't sell it, where will we get the money to invest in your classmate's project?" Lin Shichu said.
"Ah, so Mr. Lin, you really weren't lying to me when you said you were short of money?" Assistant Wen blurted out after coming to his senses.
"Who lied to you? After all the nonsense you talk, do you still want to help your classmates?" Lin Shichu glanced at the audacious assistant indifferently.
"Help! Help! I'll take this set of jewelry to be appraised right now!" Assistant Wen closed the lid carefully and murmured, "I don't know how expensive this set of jewelry is. I don't even dare to take it alone... Mr. Lin, how about we hire a few bodyguards to escort us?"
Lin Shichu rolled his eyes and said, "Can you be more capable? It's just a set of jewelry. Just treat it as a bag of worthless documents. Don't be so nervous and cautious. It will only attract attention. Isn't it obvious to the bad guys: I have valuables here?
Relax, you are my assistant, how can you be so petty? Show your generosity! This is just a beautiful stone!"
Lin Shichu encouraged him, and Assistant Wen smiled bitterly and said, "Boss Lin, you really think too highly of me. I have never taken such a valuable item before."
After much persuasion, Assistant Wen finally took the jewelry away.
