As soon as Yan's mother left, Yan Ziyuan immediately closed the door of the ward.
"Wife, please wake up, please."
He held her hand, close to his cheek, and kissed the back of her hand from time to time, his eyes full of pleading.
"No matter who you are, no matter where you come from, I just hope you can wake up. I just hope you don't leave me."
Even though the doctor said that she had blocked her brain and could not hear any sounds from the outside world, Yan Ziyuan did not give up any possibility and kept talking to her by the bed.
"In fact, I noticed the difference between you and us a long time ago, but you seemed afraid that I would find out, so I never said anything or asked."
"I look forward to the day when you can tell me your secrets when you trust me completely."
"If you have concerns and don't want to tell me, that's fine. I respect your choice."
"As long as you wake up, I will do whatever you say."
"If you want to study, go ahead and study. It doesn't matter if I stay alone in the empty room. It's not like you won't come back."
"It's okay if you want to work or not stay in Lu City. Grandpa wants you to go back to Jing City. If you want, then go back."
"But you may have to wait for me at home for a while. My application to transfer to Beijing City still needs to go through layers of approval. If you don't want to wait, I will ask Dad to open a back door for me and I will go with you."
Yan Ziyuan was chatting with her one-sidedly in a rambling manner. Originally he had a very clear mind and spoke very logically, but now his words became incoherent and he just said whatever he thought of.
While speaking, he didn't dare to look away, for fear of missing Xiao Yu's reaction if he blinked.
The nurse came in to check on Song Fuyu, and she was still in a coma.
Regardless of whether the nurse was there or not, Yan Ziyuan continued to talk to her, which deeply moved the nurse beside him.
She had seen many loving couples, but there were very few people who would stay with their loved ones without eating, drinking or sleeping like this.
"Comrade Yan, how about we keep watch for you for a while, and you go have a meal."
"There aren't many patients hospitalized at night recently, so our nursing station can spare a nurse to come over."
"No, thank you."
Although he hadn't eaten for several meals, he didn't feel hungry at all and had no appetite. He didn't want to do anything until Xiao Yu woke up.
"If you need help, you can always call us."
"OK, thanks."
The nurse left the ward and closed the door gently.
"Xiao Yu, are you hungry?"
"When Mrs. Liu came over this morning, she brought soup and millet porridge. If you're hungry, wake up. I'll heat it up for you, and then we'll eat together."
"I'm used to eating with you, so it's a bit awkward to eat alone."
"Do you think I'm too clingy?"
"If you don't like me like this, there's nothing I can do. We've already got the marriage certificate, and you can only accept my clingy nature."
"I used to laugh at my dad for always clinging to my mom, and I also laughed at him for being a giant baby. I said that I would definitely not be like him after I grew up and got married. I would definitely become a man who stands tall and proud."
"But after being with you, I suddenly found that sticking to you makes me so happy. Do you feel the same as me? If so, just nod your head. It doesn't matter if you don't nod, I will take it as your consent."
Song Fuyu, lying on the bed, was still trapped in a dream. During the few hours of sleep, he seemed to have gone through all the events of his past life.
After her parents passed away, she often hoped that they would appear in her dreams, but they rarely appeared.
Although this dream was very painful, she didn't want to wake up because when she woke up her parents would be gone again.
Whenever she missed them, she could only look at the photos in the album to ease her longing.
But the parents in the photo were not as vivid as in the dream. The parents in the photo would not talk to her, nor would they say to her, “Xiao Yu, mom and dad miss you too.”
However, no matter how long a dream is, it will eventually come to an end.
When she dreamed of going to the cemetery to burn the verdict for her parents, Song Fuyu gradually woke up from the dream.
"Wife, you finally woke up!"
When Yan Ziyuan saw her open her eyes, he was so excited that he even forgot to call the doctor or nurse.
"Wife...what's wrong with you?"
He felt that Xiao Yu looked at him with a very strange look, as if she didn't know him.
Song Fuyu, who woke up from his dream, felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
The white ceiling above her head and the incandescent bulb in the middle dazzled her. She slowly turned her head to look at the man holding her hand with an excited expression, and was in a trance for a moment.
As her vision gradually became clear, her consciousness returned to the real world.
She woke up. It was no longer a dream, and her father and mother were gone.
"Wife, Xiaoyu, you... don't you recognize me?"
Yan Ziyuan asked uncertainly.
"Silly boy, I just woke up and the light is a little glaring, so I'm not used to it."
"I was so scared. I saw that you were confused and thought you didn't recognize me."
"How is that possible? I didn't hit my head. It's impossible for me to lose my memory."
"Have I slept long?"
"It was quite long. I slept for fourteen hours."
"Are you feeling unwell somewhere? How about I call a doctor to check you out again?"
He didn't tell her that he couldn't wake her up, because he didn't want her to worry about other situations besides her injury.
"No, I'm just a little tired."
"Are you hungry?"
“It seems a little bit.”
Yan Ziyuan quickly ran to the nurses' station and called a nurse to come and help watch over him. When he saw the nurse sitting safely beside Song Fuyu's bed, he picked up the thermos and ran to the water room to get hot water.
"Your husband is so good to you. He always stays with you when you sleep."
"I told him to go eat and I would help watch over him, but he refused."
"Has he not eaten all day?"
"How could he have eaten? He never left the ward and was always sitting next to you."
After Yan Ziyuan took the hot water, he ran back to the ward.
"Thank you, Nurse Yang."
"You're welcome. Call me if you need anything."
After the nurse left the ward, Song Fuyu asked with a straight face, "Why don't you eat?!"
"I ate it~"
"You're lying! The nurse just said you didn't eat all day. You definitely didn't eat dinner before I came into the hospital!"
"I'm not very hungry."
"You have to eat even if you're not hungry. Not eating regularly can easily lead to stomach problems. I've emphasized this to you before."
"Wife, I know I was wrong."
"Don't be angry. Give me another chance. I promise I will eat on time next time."
"Heat up the soup too, and we'll eat together."
"Okay, as you command!"
