In the hospital.
The girl's vitals were all normal, but she was still unconscious.
It had been five days since Song Meilan had hit her head. The doctor said that there was no problem, and everyone was waiting for her to wake up.
Ning Ke paced back and forth in the ward anxiously. She held her hands tightly, sometimes entwining them together, and sometimes separating them. She kept glancing at Ning Meng.
Su Ye was beside her, holding a glass of water and medicine. "Ning Ke, you should take your medicine."
"No."
Ning Ke was like a hot-tempered child. She could not find a safe harbor to hide from, and she was on the verge of breaking down.
Su Ye squinted his eyes. He looked like he was smiling, and his words were gentle. It was easy to let down one's guard. He coaxed, "Ning Ke, if you don't take your medicine, how are you going to wait for her to wake up?"
Ning Ke was stunned.
She seemed to have been convinced. She took the medicine and the glass of water. Just as she was about to drink it, the ward door was pushed open. Huo Beichen, who had just come out to understand the situation, walked in.
In just five days, Huo Beichen's beard had grown out, and his chin was gray. His brows were slightly furrowed, and he looked anxious and haggard.
When she saw him, Ning Ke returned the glass of water to Su Ye and rushed to Huo Beichen's side. She screamed, "Why?!"
Ever since Ning Meng's accident, Su Ye had been hiding it from Ning Ke.
He was afraid that she would have a heart attack, but Ning Ke visited Ning Meng every day. If she did not see Ning Meng on the first day, she could still lie to her that she was out on a business trip. But when she did not see Ning Meng on the second, third, and fourth day, she knew that something was wrong.
On the fifth day, she found her way to the hospital. When she saw Ning Meng, Su Ye could not hide it anymore and told her the truth.
Huo Beichen was already having a headache. A normal person would be fine after waking up, but he was afraid. He was afraid that the person who would wake up would not be his girl …
He was already in a bad mood, and his tone toward Ning Ke was even worse. He had never liked Ning Ke since he was young, so he reprimanded her. "What are you doing here?"
"What am I doing here?" Ning Ke roared. "I'm here to see what you've done to my sister!"
She stared at Huo Beichen and stretched out her trembling hand. "Eight years ago, you abandoned my sister in the fire and saved that woman. Now, you watched as that woman hurt my sister! Huo Beichen, if my sister doesn't wake up, I will make sure that woman dies with my sister! "
Ning Ke's body trembled. She was furious to the extreme.
She could not wait to kill Song Meilan and Huo Beichen. Then, she would commit suicide and bring these people to find her sister!
She didn't understand. She couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried. It had been eight years, but she still couldn't get over that incident.
Why did he give up on his sister and save Song Meilan at that critical moment in the fire?
She knew that her sister had asked Huo Beichen to save Song Meilan.
But his sister was kind and soft-hearted. How could he do this?
To her, the most important person in the world was her sister.
If it was her, she would have carried her sister out even if she had to knock her out! Nothing was more important than her sister's life, not even her own!
She could not forgive his stupidity.
She was weak and frail. Huo Beichen had the chance to go in with her. Why did he not save her sister?!
Ning Ke's stubborn thoughts caused her to transfer her hatred to Huo Beichen every time she thought about it. She hugged her head and shouted, "Why didn't you save my sister? Why did you let that woman hurt my sister again and again?!"
After she finished shouting, she burst into tears.
"Shut up!"
Huo Beichen suddenly shouted, startling Ning Ke. She slowly raised her head and saw Huo Beichen looking at her with narrowed eyes. "Do you know what she wants?"
Ning Ke was stunned.
Huo Beichen ignored her and walked to Ning Meng's side. He sat down beside the bed. He had been waiting for her to wake up for the past few days.
He felt that if he was the first person she saw, she would not have left.
Deep down in his heart, he was afraid that Ning Meng would disappear again.
He let out a deep sigh.
At this time, a doctor came to check on Ning Meng.
The doctor checked on Ning Meng's pupils and checked on her physical condition. Finally, he looked at Huo Beichen and said, "We don't know when she will wake up."
Su Ye asked, "What if she doesn't wake up?"
It had been five days.
If she was going to wake up, she would have woken up long ago.
Su Ye had to prepare for the worst.
The doctor was silent for a while and said, "If she doesn't wake up, she might become a vegetable."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room turned to look at him.
The doctor did not say anything else. He walked around the room and left.
After the doctor had left, Su Ye looked at Ning Ke and was about to say something when someone knocked on the door again. The door was pushed open and Song Meilan, whom no one wanted to see, walked in.
After all these years, Song Meilan had aged a lot.
Her hair was white and she looked a little dispirited.
Huo Beichen had taken good care of her, but after she lost her son, she had lost her spiritual support. Now, she was just like a walking corpse.
As soon as she entered the room, Ning Ke looked at her. "Why are you here?"
Song Meilan looked at the person on the bed and slowly said, "I want to see if she's still alive."
When Ning Ke heard this, her eyes suddenly turned red. Her whole body trembled. She gritted her teeth and asked, "And then?"
Song Meilan looked down. "If she's dead, I'll pay for it with my life. Hahaha …"
Song Meilan's gentle face showed a hint of madness.
She laughed so hard that her whole body was shaking. That look was especially infuriating.
Ning Ke's hands were trembling.
She didn't know where she got the strength from, but she rushed in front of Song Meilan and grabbed her head. Her other hand picked up the fruit knife from the table and pressed it against Song Meilan's neck!
This action was too sudden. Huo Beichen and Su Ye did not have time to react. When they came to, Ning Ke was already close to Song Meilan.
Ning Ke pressed the knife against Song Meilan's neck. She shouted, "If anything happens to my sister, I'll kill you, even if I have to pay for it with my life!"
Song Meilan wasn't afraid at all. She chuckled and even provoked her, "Then do it! Kill me! Avenge your so-called sister … Kill me!"
She was crazy.
That was the only thought in Ning Ke's mind.
She tightened her grip slightly. Su Ye and Huo Beichen shouted, "No!"
Su Ye took a step forward. Ning Ke took a step back with Song Meilan. "Don't come near me!"
Su Ye did not dare to step forward. She was afraid that Ning Ke would do something crazy.
Huo Beichen sat there and did not move. He stared at Ning Ke and slowly said, "You really don't understand what your sister is thinking."
Ning Ke was stunned.
Huo Beichen said, "That year, your sister was willing to die in a sea of fire to save her. But now, you want to kill the person that your sister risked her life to save? How can you face your sister? "
Ning Ke was slightly stunned.
But soon, she laughed. "I don't care. I only know that she killed my sister eight years ago. Today, she almost killed my sister again. I want to kill her. I want to get rid of this danger for my sister."
As she said that, she pointed the dagger in her hand at Song Meilan.
Song Meilan closed her eyes and waited for her death. Su Ye wanted to rush forward. Huo Beichen's jaw tightened. At this critical moment …
A voice was heard. "Ning Ke?"
The voice was a little hoarse, but it was so familiar that it made people want to cry.
Ning Ke was stunned. She turned around in disbelief. That voice just now …
While she was still in a daze, Su Ye had already rushed in front of her. She grabbed the fruit knife.
The fruit knife was a little blunt. It pierced Su Ye's finger but did not hurt her bone. He used a little force and snatched the knife away from her. Then, he dragged Ning Ke away from Song Meilan.
Ning Ke had forgotten about killing. She looked at the bed in a daze.
Huo Beichen also turned around in disbelief.
His eyes were a little red. His usually expressionless face was now filled with joy.
She was awake.
She was awake!!
The girl on the bed slowly opened her eyes. After she had adapted to the light, she stretched and yawned.
She looked at the ceiling blankly and asked, "How many days have I been asleep?"
Huo Beichen stared at her and suddenly said, "The rain lady has no guts."
Ning Meng was speechless.
She slowly turned her head. The moment she saw Huo Beichen, her eyes turned red.
It had been five years.
The moment she saw Huo Beichen again, Ning Meng felt that her empty heart had been filled up.
Especially when she heard him say the words' the rain lady has no guts' in his awkward voice. She wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.
He was afraid that she would not come back. Was he testing her?
Ning Meng choked with sobs. She slowly said, "It has nothing to do with you."
Huo Beichen let out a sigh of relief when he heard these words. He smiled.
His eyes were red as he smiled. It was a heart-wrenching sight.
He knew that the girl who had been unconscious for five days was still his. He stretched out his hand and held Ning Meng's hand tightly.
Their fingers were intertwined.
His big and dry hands made Ning Meng, who felt as if she had been separated from a lifetime ago, slowly feel the reality.
This was not a dream.
Ning Meng sighed.
In the past five years, she had dreamt of him so many times. She had almost forgotten how he looked like.
They had been separated for five years. But when their fingers were intertwined, Ning Meng felt that the five years were nothing. She did not feel a sense of unfamiliarity. She was ecstatic to see him again.
Ning Meng smiled and said, "Water."
Her throat was too dry, and she couldn't speak.
Huo Beichen smiled with tears in his eyes. When he heard this, he quickly said, "Water … water …"
He was like a fool who had lost something and found it again. He repeated this sentence, but he did not understand the meaning of this word. Ning Ke, who was next to him, quickly brought a glass of water over. She timidly said, "Sis?"
Ning Meng looked at her.
The girl in front of her still had a face that looked similar to her. The way she looked at her was timid and dependent, just like eight years ago.
Zhang Ke Ke … Ah!
Ning Meng suddenly understood why Ning Ke had been so careful to please her.
She smiled and took the water. After drinking a few mouthfuls to soothe her throat, Huo Beichen came back to his senses and helped Ning Meng to sit up slowly.
This body had only been unconscious for five days. It was not a big deal.
Ning Meng felt very comfortable.
She returned the glass to Ning Ke. Just as Ning Ke was about to put the glass on the coffee table, Ning Meng suddenly said, "Ke Ke, didn't you promise me that you won't do plastic surgery?"
When she said this, not only was Ning Ke stunned, even Huo Beichen's body froze.
Ning Ke's hand went limp, and the glass fell on the floor, shattering into pieces.
She quickly turned around and looked at Ning Meng in disbelief. "Sis … sister?"
Her voice was filled with surprise and disbelief.
Ning Meng smiled and nodded weakly. "Yes?"
Ning Ke finally reacted. She shouted, "You remember now?"
You remember now?
Ning Meng looked at Ning Ke and Huo Beichen …
They thought that she had lost her memory. After all, to them, there were memories of the past eight years first before there were memories of the future.
However, to someone like her who came from a different world, there were memories of the past eight years first before there were memories of the past eight years.
Ning Meng lowered her eyes and nodded. "Yes, I remember."
Let's just assume that she had lost her memory.
And this time, she had dreamt of the past eight years and understood the cause and effect of everything.
When Ning Ke heard this, her eyes turned red and she burst into tears. She was like a lost child who had finally seen her family.
She threw herself into Ning Meng's arms. "Sister! Sister!!"
Just as they were about to reunite, a voice interrupted them. "You … you are Ning Meng?"
The voice shocked everyone.
Everyone turned around and saw Song Meilan looking at Ning Meng in shock. "You are … Little Meng?"
In the past, Song Meilan had not only given them money to tutor Huang Cheng. Sometimes, she would even cook food for them to improve their lives. As they got closer, she called Ning Meng 'Little Meng'.
As soon as she spoke, Ning Ke stopped crying. Even Huo Beichen looked at Ning Meng worriedly.
She remembered the past …
Then, all the pain and guilt …
Ning Meng stared at Song Meilan, her heart filled with complicated emotions.
If she had transmigrated right after returning to the real world, she would not have been able to face Song Meilan. However, to her, it had been five years since Huang Cheng had died.
To Song Meilan, it had been eight years.
Time was the best medicine that could heal all wounds. This was the same for them.
Ning Meng opened her mouth. "Mom."
She had said that Song Meilan would be her mother in the future. She would take care of Song Meilan when she was old. That was the truth.
She smiled. "I know you can't let go of Huang Cheng. You can scold or hit him if you want …"
As she said this, Song Meilan suddenly pounced on her.
"What are you doing?!"
Ning Ke stood in front of Ning Meng like a fighting rooster. "Stay away from my sister!"
Su Ye and Huo Beichen did not say anything, but they also stood in front of Ning Meng.
Ning Meng looked at them and smiled bitterly. "Move away."
"Sister!"
Ning Meng was firm. "Move away."
Huang Cheng had died for her. If Song Meilan wanted to hit her, she would endure it!
Ning Ke could only step aside, but she still looked at Song Meilan cautiously. If Song Meilan dared to hit her sister, she would definitely pull Song Meilan away.
Song Meilan walked toward Ning Meng step by step. After a while, she held Ning Meng's hand. "Little Meng, it's you. It's my fault. I didn't recognize you … I didn't want to kill you. I wanted to kill Huo Beichen's vixen wife … No, it's you. It's you. That's why I was moved …"
Song Meilan had never hated Ning Meng.
Huang Cheng had died for her, and Song Meilan had wanted to shift her hatred to someone else. However, when she saw Ning Meng's depressed look and thought of how obedient this girl was, she could not bring herself to hate her.
At that time, she did not even have the strength or reason to hate. She did not have the courage to live, so she had set a fire.
Then, to save herself, she had rushed into the sea of fire.
She had said that she would be her daughter from now on.
Then, she had asked Huo Beichen to send her out, and to help her pick up the pendant that Huang Cheng had left behind, she had died in the sea of fire.
At that time, Song Meilan had completely forgiven her and treated her as her daughter.
However, her son was gone, and the daughter that she had just acknowledged was also dead.
For the past eight years, she had been living on her memories of them.
Later, when she heard that Huo Beichen had married a new wife and was very obedient to his wife, she thought of her daughter.
How could Huo Beichen forget her?
That was why Song Meilan had hired an assassin to kill her!
But … it was not like that at all!
She, Song Meilan, had almost killed her own daughter by mistake!
Song Meilan hugged Ning Meng. "Thank goodness you're fine. Thank goodness you're fine!"
Ning Meng could understand the meaning behind Song Meilan's words. She could finally relax. She had never thought that Song Meilan would forgive her …
She patted Song Meilan's back and smiled. "Mom, it's all in the past now. From now on, our family will be fine."
"Good. Good. Good. Good. Good."
After everyone had calmed down, Huo Beichen called the doctor over to give Ning Meng a full body checkup.
She had been hit on the head, and other than a slight concussion, she was fine. However, the doctor recommended that she stay in the hospital for another three days.
So, even though Ning Meng felt that she was full of energy, she still stayed in the hospital.
After the doctor had left, footsteps could be heard coming from the corridor outside.
Soon, the door was opened again, and Ning Wentao's loud voice could be heard. "Mengmeng, Mengmeng, are you okay? My Mengmeng, you can't die. What will I do if you die?! "
Ning Meng was speechless.
She pursed her lips. "Dad, I'm not dead yet!"
When Ning Wentao heard this, he was overjoyed and stopped crying. However, Ning Zhi, who was standing beside him, burst into tears. "Sis, why are you awake? It was not easy for me to get my inheritance, and now it's gone?? "
"??????"
See you tomorrow! Muah! Five thousand words, please vote for me!!
