Chapter 88 Wake up
Chapter 88 Wake up
For three days and three nights, Lin Zhihao did not wake up and had a continuous fever. Doctors and nurses stayed with her 24 hours a day.
Both of Mr. and Mrs. Ho looked haggard. For three days, no one in the company saw Junius Ho.
The two stayed by Lin Zhihao's side the whole time. Shen Yuyu's eyes were red and red again. She had already lost her daughter once. Would she lose her again this time?
In her dream, Lin Zhihao walked aimlessly until her legs gave way and she was drenched in sweat.
Suddenly, she heard a series of sobbing sounds. She looked around, and the sobbing seemed to be all around her, or perhaps in her mind.
Lin Zhihao listened intently, trying to determine the direction of the sound, when a bright light suddenly appeared in the distance.
She was so blinded by the bright light that she covered her eyes with her arm.
"woooooo"
The crying grew louder and louder, getting closer and closer to her.
Lowering my arm, I saw a little girl not far away, her head buried in her knees, her body trembling from crying.
Lin Zhihao was puzzled and walked up to her. "Who are you?"
"woooooo"
The only response she received was crying.
Lin Zhihao slowly squatted down and gently stroked the girl's head. "Tell me, what's wrong? Where is this?"
"woooooo"
The girl continued to cry.
Helpless, Lin Zhihao sat down next to the girl. She had been walking for far too long and was almost out of strength. This girl was the first living person she had seen in so long.
She patted the girl's back gently to comfort her, and then she herself became drowsy.
Gradually, the girl's crying grew softer and softer until it stopped.
Suddenly, Lin Zhihao woke up with a start, only to find that the girl beside her had disappeared.
She searched everywhere, but found nothing.
Is it a dream? Lin Zhihao wondered, her head bowed, completely unsure which way to go next.
"Are you looking for me?"
Suddenly, a little girl's voice came from behind.
The girl held a candied hawthorn in her hand, eating it while looking at Lin Zhihao, "Sister, why aren't you home yet?"
"Candied hawthorn?" Lin Zhihao murmured.
"Hehe, my mom bought this for me. Do you want a bite, sister?" The girl generously handed the candied hawthorn to Lin Zhihao.
Lin Zhihao took a bite, her eyes reddening.
The girl looked at Lin Zhihao, tilting her head with a puzzled expression, "Sister, are you very sad? Is it because of Zhizhi's candied hawthorn?"
Lin Zhihao suddenly looked at the little girl, "Zhizhi?"
"Yes, my name is Zhizhi, hehe, that's the name my parents gave me." The girl happily circled around Lin Zhihao.
Lin Zhihao squatted down and looked at the girl in front of her. "Little sister, do you know where this is?"
The girl pouted in confusion, "Sister, don't you know? Then why are you playing the walking game here for so long?"
Looking at the innocent little girl in front of her, Lin Zhihao smiled helplessly, "Sister isn't playing, sister is looking for her way home."
"Oh~"
The girl didn't understand. "I thought my sister was just playing and that's why she didn't come home."
Do you know how to get out of here?
"Hmm? Is my sister going home?"
"Yes, my sister wants to go home."
The girl suddenly took Lin Zhihao's hand and led her forward until they reached a door, where she stopped.
“Look.” The girl pointed to the door.
Lin Zhihao opened the door, and inside was an endless, bottomless abyss.
She looked at the little girl, her eyes questioning.
"This is it, sister. Your family has been looking for you for a long time. Sister, you should go back quickly. Don't be so playful next time, or you'll easily get lost like this time."
"Thank you." Lin Zhihao stepped into the room, her body suddenly plummeting downwards.
"Sister! Be happy!"
A girl's voice could be heard from above.
Lin Zhihao had her eyes closed when she suddenly opened them, and what came into view was the snow-white ceiling.
"Zhizhi?" Shen Yuyu called out uncertainly when she saw Lin Zhihao's eyes open on the hospital bed.
"Mom...Mom." Lin Zhihao saw He's mother and wanted to call out to her, but could only utter a weak sound.
Seeing Lin Zhi looking at her, Shen Yuyu excitedly called for a doctor, and immediately a group of medical staff entered the room.
"Waaah." Looking at Lin Zhihao inside the glass door, He's mother couldn't stop her tears from falling.
After the doctor finished the examination, Shen Yuyu grabbed the attending physician's hand and asked, "Doctor, is my baby alright?"
The doctor removed his stethoscope, a smile on his face. "Ms. Shen is fully awake. She just needs to rest a bit more. All her vital signs are fine."
Upon hearing the doctor's answer, Shen Yuyu was so excited that she almost fell to the ground. He Junyao caught her in time, preventing her from losing her composure in front of others.
After the medical staff left, Shen Yuyu entered the ward, took Lin Zhihao's hand, and smiled with joy at having regained what she had lost.
"Zhizhi, my baby, you're finally awake."
Hearing her mother's tearful voice, Lin Zhihao's eyes also reddened, and her voice was filled with grievance, "Mom, I've been looking for you for so long."
Mother He hugged Lin Zhihao with heartache, while Father He stood behind them, watching the mother and daughter, his eyes also filled with tears.
"Sister Lin! Sister Lin!!" Upon receiving the news that Lin Zhihao had woken up, He Manman rushed into the ward, threw herself on Lin Zhihao, and began to cry.
"Waaaaah, I thought you left me all alone, waaaaah."
Looking at He Manman, who was crying incessantly, Lin Zhihao smiled.
Mr. and Mrs. He left the room, leaving the two little girls alone.
"What happened to you? You were unconscious for so long, waaaaaah!"
He Manman punched Lin Zhihao's chest with her little fists.
Lin Zhihao told He Manman about what had happened during her coma over the past few days, as well as about the little girl named Zhizhi in her dream.
He Manman felt a chill run down her spine as she listened to Lin Zhihao's description.
"Sister Lin, you, you're not possessed by an evil spirit, are you?"
He Manman squeezed into Lin Zhihao's bed, looking around in fear.
Lin Zhihao, who had just woken up and was still weak all over, was pushed into a corner by He Manman.
Lin Zhihao "..."
He Manman hugged Lin Zhihao tightly, murmuring repeatedly, "It's good that you're awake, it's good that you're awake."
Lin Zhihao stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.
After being observed at the hospital for two days and confirmed to be fine, Lin Zhihao was taken home by He's mother.
As soon as he arrived home, the servants and housekeepers came to greet him.
Some people were even holding flowers in their hands.
"Everyone, I, Grey Wolf, am back!! Hahaha!!!" Lin Zhihao stood in front of the gate, hands on his hips, laughing loudly.
"Oh my goodness, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." The sentimental maid was already in tears, and even the maid who had pruned Junius Ho's plants bare had tears welling up in her eyes.
"Waaah." The butler clutched the corner of his suit, forcing back his tears. He was genuinely happy to see Lin Zhihao return.
Although so many people lived in the house before, it was always cold and quiet. Only after the young lady started coming home more often half a year ago did the house begin to feel lively and warm.
If the young lady doesn't wake up this time, he doesn't even want to imagine how cold and icy the atmosphere at home will become.
