Chapter 1278 Welcome Back

Even Zhan Yangyi and the others were no longer aware of the passage of time. They stood at the singularity of fate, awaiting the judgment of the next moment.

Finally, the light above the operating room door extinguished, and everyone immediately perked up and crowded forward.

The first to emerge was Vincent. He said something to Zhan Yangyi, but Zhan Yangyi’s mood did not improve.

Shen Xiangxue and Chen Yutong beside them were on the verge of tears. They held onto each other, as if this gesture could make them stronger to face everything before them.

Just then, Chai Yanyu arrived. He briefly inquired about the situation, his expression somewhat complicated.

Next, they could only watch helplessly as Zhan Mohan was wheeled away by the doctors, unable to do anything…

Wei Yumeng had not slept well. Although she had fallen asleep, even with her eyes closed, the only one she saw was Zhan Mohan.

Her heart still felt heavy, and she had even shed tears multiple times in her sleep.

The first thing she wanted to do upon waking was to know how Zhan Mohan was.

“You’re awake?” Chai Yanyu, who had been dozing off, snapped awake at the sound.

Wei Yumeng had already gotten out of bed on her own: “I’m going to see how Mohan is.”

This time, Chai Yanyu did not stop her. Instead, he very cooperatively supported Wei Yumeng: “Alright, I’ll go with you.”

The two arrived at the door of what was Zhan Mohan’s ward. Chen Yutong and Shen Xiangxue were still standing in the corridor, appearing to have not rested all night.

“Yumeng, you’re here. Did you rest well last night?” Shen Xiangxue asked weakly.

She looked like she had kept vigil all night, appearing utterly exhausted.

Chai Yanyu looked at her: “Don’t wait any longer, go rest.”

Shen Xiangxue shook her head: “I’ll wait a little longer.”

Wei Yumeng looked at them, asking hesitantly: “How is… how is Mohan?”

Her voice trembled slightly. She was afraid, afraid of hearing the result that would be enough to break her.

Chen Yutong walked over, took her hand, and patted her hand reassuringly: “Mohan…”

Chen Yutong hesitated, her words catching in her throat. This made Wei Yumeng’s heart pound. Could it really be…

Just then, Zhan Yangyi and Dr. Vincent walked out of the ward.

“You’re all here.” Vincent seemed to be in a good mood.

Zhan Yangyi also looked very relaxed: “I imagine you all want to know the situation inside. However, Mohan’s condition is still unstable and requires a good period of rest. Let’s not disturb him.”

Upon hearing this, Wei Yumeng’s eyes widened: “Big Brother, are you saying… are you saying Mohan is really alright?”

Zhan Yangyi smiled and nodded at her: “Yes, he’s alright.”

Vincent’s face was full of pride: “Although there were indeed troublesome issues during the surgery, and we even thought he was beyond saving at one point, thankfully, my medical skills are world-renowned, and I managed to save him.”

Hearing this, Shen Xiangxue rolled her eyes at him. He was a bit too boastful as soon as he had a slight achievement.

“I’ll go back and tell Grandpa the results, so he doesn’t worry,” Zhan Yangyi said, looking at Chen Yutong: “You haven’t slept all night either, go back and rest with me.”

Chen Yutong nodded, stepped forward, and linked her arm with Zhan Yangyi’s: “Then we’ll be going.”

The others nodded at them, and the two left together.

Shen Xiangxue stretched lazily, then looked at Chai Yanyu: “I’m going back. What about you?”

Chai Yanyu’s eyes were inscrutable, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Finally, he spoke: “Since he’s alright, there’s no need for me to stay any longer. The Chai Group has matters to attend to. I’ll be going too.”

He said this, then moved away from Wei Yumeng, glanced at Shen Xiangxue, and they prepared to leave.

“A’Yu, wait.” Wei Yumeng called out to him.

She had many things she wanted to ask Chai Yanyu for clarification.

She had vaguely felt that something was wrong before, and at this critical juncture, Chai Yanyu reappeared before her.

She knew that all of this was not a coincidence.

But Chai Yanyu showed no intention of stopping: “I’m sorry, I’m also taking time off this trip. Since he’s alright, I should be doing my own things.”

Wei Yumeng still chased after him for a few steps: “A’Yu, thank you… for everything.”

Chai Yanyu paused: “Mm.”

Then, without looking back, he left with Shen Xiangxue.

Shen Xiangxue had been observing Chai Yanyu’s expression. She had never seen him like this before.

She couldn't quite tell if it was disappointment? Sadness? Unwillingness? Or something else?

“A’Yu, are you alright?” Shen Xiangxue asked cautiously.

But Chai Yanyu ignored her and simply walked towards the car on his own.

Wei Yumeng stood in place, still feeling a little sad. For some reason, she seemed to feel the negative emotions emanating from Chai Yanyu.

But how she wished she could talk to him properly. Perhaps clarifying everything would be better.

But now, even that was no longer possible.

“Sigh, this silly boy, what is he doing to himself like this?” Vincent sighed with some emotion.

“Dr. Vincent, do you know something?” Wei Yumeng couldn’t help but ask.

Vincent looked at Wei Yumeng and smiled mysteriously: “You guessed correctly. I do know many things you don’t. Originally, they didn’t want me to tell you.”

“They?” Wei Yumeng was confused.

“It’s that boy Chai Yanyu and Miss Shen,” Vincent said with some displeasure: “Chai Yanyu threatened me, saying he’d make things difficult for me if I told you.”

“A’Yu wouldn’t do that,” Wei Yumeng naturally sided with Chai Yanyu.

“You, you only think that boy is a good person,” Vincent said, nodding to himself: “Indeed, in that boy’s heart, only you are different from others.”

“Dr. Vincent, please tell me what you know. I want to know, I don’t want to be the one kept in the dark,” Wei Yumeng pleaded.

Vincent looked at her seriously: “Do you really want to know?”

Wei Yumeng nodded firmly.

“Alright, but don’t say I told you later. How about this, I’ll come to your ward to find you after I finish my work.”

Vincent said this and turned to continue his work. However, after taking a few steps, he turned back and reminded Wei Yumeng: “Your husband is truly alright this time, but he is still in a coma and needs sufficient rest. Don’t go to him now. When he wakes up, I will naturally notify you. Go rest well.”

With that, he left.

Wei Yumeng walked to the door of Zhan Mohan’s ward and touched the surface of the door: “Mohan… welcome back…”
