Cuicui's mother was immediately frightened and at a loss. When Li Mei saw this, she immediately ran out and called a doctor.
After a period of chaos, Cuicui's situation finally calmed down.
The doctor was very angry: "What's going on with your family members?! Didn't I tell you to keep the patient emotionally stable?!"
Li Mei couldn't help but gouge Cui Cui's mother in the eye, and became extremely angry. This person really dared to say anything, and she wouldn't open any pot!
Only then did Cuicui’s mother realize that what she said might have irritated Cuicui, and she beat her chest in self-blame:
"It's all my fault. I can't speak even if I open my mouth. I might as well be mute and become a mute!"
Li Mei could no longer hold back: "Sister-in-law!"
Cuicui's mother covered her mouth, hid aside and kept crying.
Although Li Mei was angry at the sight, there was nothing she could do about her. A woman from a mountain valley who had never even studied in school, her husband died at a young age, and she raised her only daughter by herself. It was really... Poor and annoying!
But when she looked at Cuicui again, Li Mei's heart sank.
Although the situation had eased, Cuicui's face looked clearly ashen.
No need to guess, she must have thought of the rumors that troubled her before committing suicide, and the dark life she could foresee facing.
When Yu Changxi came back from fetching water, he saw the sudden change in the atmosphere in the ward. He was smart and looked at everyone's reactions, and he probably made a guess.
He pretended not to notice, naturally picked up the unfinished book again, sat down at his usual position next to the hospital bed and continued reading:
"...She opened her eyes, smiled and looked at the prince affectionately, and everything returned to what it was before."
"Soon, the prince and Princess Rose held a grand wedding ceremony. They lived happily together until they grew old."
"I've finished reading, Cuicui, do you like the story?"
Li Cuicui stared blankly in the direction of the ceiling, neither moving her fingers nor blinking her eyes. She lay motionless like before she woke up, without any response.
Yu Changxi did not give up: "Look, Princess Rose suffered such an evil curse, but in the end she was as lucky as you to wake up, and didn't she also live a happy life after that?"
This innocent fairy tale question made Li Cuicui smile bitterly.
Princess Rose can live a happy life because the princess has a prince who loves her, but not only does she have no one who loves her, there are countless filthy words and wanton ridicule waiting for her.
How could she, an "unclean person" who was criticized by others, be compared with the princess?
Yu Changxi saw the self-contempt in her eyes, and still explained patiently and gently:
"The poem I read to you on the first day was found in the advanced mathematics beside your pillow. On a piece of stiff writing paper, Shu Ting's "To the Oak Tree" was written in delicate but strong handwriting."
"At that time, I was thinking about how a girl with advanced mathematics on her pillow and Shu Ting's poems written in her pen would be a smart and coquettish girl."
"Until today you woke up and when you opened your eyes and looked at me, I knew that my judgment was correct."
Li Cuicui was attracted by his words and looked at Yu Changxi unconsciously. He was praising her, didn't he think she was dirty?
Yu Changxi saw her changes in his eyes and said seriously:
"There are good people and bad people in this world. Others can push you to the ground, but they can't stop you from standing up with your face covered in dust and bruises."
Cuicui was deeply moved by Yu Changxi's words. Yes, no matter what others say, she is still her.
As long as she doesn't give up, no one can defeat her!
Crystal tears flashed in Cuicui's eyes, and Yu Changxi nodded firmly at her:
"I believe you can stand up again and be that kapok tree that is not afraid of cold waves, wind and thunder, and thunderbolts!"
Hot tears flowed down the green cheeks, as if the dust covering the eyes had been washed away, and the beautiful eyes regained their vitality, even revealing more vitality.
Her dry lips trembled, and she made a low sound from her nasal cavity: "...Hmm."
Although the voice was low, the three people in the ward could hear it clearly.
At this time, even Li Mei couldn't hold back tears of joy. Not only did Cuicui wake up, but her heart also came to life. This is the most important thing!
When Yu Changxi left, he left the copy of "Sleeping Beauty in the Forest" to Cuicui, hoping that this book would wake her up and leave her with more good luck.
It was late at night, the lights in the ward were turned off, and everyone else in the ward had gone to sleep.
Only Cuicui, who had just woken up, was still reluctant to close her eyes. She was still a little afraid of returning to the endless darkness again.
The bright moonlight shone through the window in front of the bed. She moved her head slightly and could see the exquisite cover of "Sleeping Beauty in the Woods" beside her pillow.
Among the flowers, a prince kissed his princess...
Her eyes flashed, and a figure of a young man in white appeared in her mind. He was tall and thin, with red lips and white teeth. His smile was like a warm little sun, and his voice was clear and gentle.
Maybe this is what the prince looks like in her heart...
...
The gate of the military area.
Before the military vehicle driven by Bai Chuan entered the gate, it was stopped by Meng Jiu'an inside the gate.
He parked the car aside and got out of the car with a curious expression on his face:
"The sun has come out from the west? You called me again, and you came to the gate to pick me up in person. What do you want to do?"
On the way here, he was thinking that as long as Meng Jiuan acted abnormally, it was probably related to Yu Changle.
Sure enough, Meng Jiuan confirmed his suspicion as soon as he opened his mouth.
"I remember that Changxi will report to school tomorrow. Changle has not been discharged from the hospital yet. You can help send him off tomorrow."
Hehe, I used to be called "Changle" by my first name and surname very stiffly, but now I change my name to "Changle" and it's quite smooth!
"That's it?"
Bai Chuan didn't believe that something could be said in just one phone call, and this person still had to make him make a trip.
"besides."
Meng Jiu'an was not polite: "Changxi is gone, isn't Sister-in-law Li the only one left in Changle? She has to look after the store during the day, and I'm worried that she won't be able to handle it."
"I'll work hard for you tomorrow. I'll help deliver meals at noon and evening, and then ask the doctor about her recovery. If it's inconvenient, ask Boling to help. I'll just delay it for one day. I'll treat you to dinner when I leave the team the day after tomorrow."
Ever since he remembered that Yu Changxi was going to report for duty tomorrow, Meng Jiu'an had not let go all day long.
As soon as today's competition ended, he immediately ran to the office and borrowed a phone to call Bai Chuan. He was still embarrassed to say these loving words in front of others, so he said that Bai Chuan had to make a trip if he had something to do.
If he hadn't left the team after the last match tomorrow, he would have wanted to go to Yu Changle immediately to take care of her.
Bai Chuan didn't say anything but just laughed at him, which made Meng Jiu'an frown:
"Okay, let's say something!"
