Chapter 138: Feeding

The doctors at the hospital couldn’t explain what was going on.

In their opinion, Shen Sangyu should have woken up long ago, but Wen Qingchuan explained that Shen Sangyu had suffered a head injury before, and the injury was particularly severe, so they didn’t dare to make any further comments.

When the next day came, Shen Sangyu still showed no signs of waking up, so the doctor arranged for her to be transferred to another hospital.

The ambulance that was supposed to take Shen Sangyu to the provincial capital drove to the most authoritative hospital in the province.

As soon as she arrived at the hospital, Shen Sangyu underwent a battery of tests, but in the end, all the test reports showed that she had no significant problems.

During the three days that Shen Sangyu was in a coma, Wen Qingchuan’s face became so gaunt that the flesh on his cheeks seemed to hang loosely.

The superiors were aware of Wen Qingchuan’s condition and should have let him go back, but after learning about the situation, they insisted that he stay for a few more days.

Fortunately, on the first day that Wen Qingchuan was set to take Shen Sangyu back to Sijiu City, Shen Sangyu, who had been in a coma for three whole days, finally woke up.

Shen Sangyu felt as if she had experienced a long dream, in which she “saw” all the experiences of the original owner over the past eighteen years.

She saw that the original owner was a very good girl before she went to high school, but she didn’t know what happened. After high school, the girl’s temperament changed drastically.

Shen Sangyu watched the original owner’s demeanor transform and kept making trouble, observing the tired eyes of the original owner’s father, and her heart filled with anger.

Even she didn’t know where this feeling of anger came from.

Until the original owner’s father wanted to see his daughter one last time before he died, but the original owner chose to go out drinking with her boyfriend instead, leaving her father to depart without seeing his daughter one last time.

How could there be such a daughter in the world!

The original owner’s father had not let the original owner down in any way. His only failure was that when the original owner was born, he had to ask the mother and daughter to return to their hometown.

As a result, the grandparents favored boys over girls, which led to the original owner and her mother enduring a few difficult years.

But from the perspective of the original owner’s father, there had not been a family compound assigned at that time, and he was often away on missions.

Every time he returned home, his wife behaved well until he finally realized something was wrong. He immediately cut ties with the family and took his wife and daughter to Sijiu City.

But why did the original owner, who was once very good, suddenly change her temperament?

Shen Sangyu couldn’t figure it out.

But from the original owner’s perspective, the photo of her father in the mourning hall made her heart ache.

When she opened her eyes, tears streamed down her face.

“Sangyu!”

As she came back to her senses, Shen Sangyu saw Wen Qingchuan, who was in a panic.

Shen Sangyu’s brain hadn’t fully regained its function yet; she stared at Wen Qingchuan blankly, then looked at the white ceiling.

“What’s wrong with me?”

Shen Sangyu raised her hand with difficulty and gently touched Wen Qingchuan’s thin cheek. “Why are you thinner again?”

Wen Qingchuan’s eyes were red partly from excitement and partly from lack of sleep these past few days.

After Shen Sangyu fell into a coma, the doctor had informed him that her condition could lead to sudden respiratory failure, which made him too anxious to sleep.

Sometimes, he even had to ask someone to watch him while he went to the toilet.

“You suddenly fell into a coma.” Wen Qingchuan sighed heavily, his tone a bit helpless. “You scared me to death.”

Shen Sangyu felt a bittersweet ache in her heart. Remembering everything from her dream, she thought of the original owner’s father’s last words before he died.

“I’m sorry for making you worry.” Shen Sangyu couldn’t help but shed more tears.

“It’s okay; you’ll be fine once you wake up.”

Wen Qingchuan gently wiped away Shen Sangyu’s tears and asked in a low voice, “Did you have a nightmare?”

“Yeah.”

Shen Sangyu opened her mouth, but she felt very weak after waking up from a coma. Although she had slept for so long, her eyelids felt heavy.

Wen Qingchuan quickly called a doctor, and Shen Sangyu fell asleep again after the doctor finished examining her.

However, Wen Qingchuan was very worried when he saw Shen Sangyu fall asleep again. “Why did you fall asleep again?”

“It’s okay this time.” The doctor smiled. “Several of us directors had a meeting earlier, and we suspect it’s due to excessive psychological pressure and lack of rest that caused the coma.

Comrade Shen doesn’t have any lesions in her brain, and she is very healthy, so don’t worry.”

Wen Qingchuan always believed in doctors, but Shen Sangyu’s previous condition really scared him.

“When will she be able to wake up?” he asked anxiously.

The doctor took a look at Shen Sangyu, whose breathing was even and stable, noting that she was completely different from her previous dangerous state.

However, there were too few medical records regarding such cases, and he could not provide a definitive answer. He simply said, “She is just asleep now.”

Seeing that the doctor did not give a clear answer, Wen Qingchuan chose not to press further. For him, as long as Shen Sangyu was fine, that was enough.

While Shen Sangyu was asleep, Wen Qingchuan bought some food from a restaurant in the hospital and went to the phone booth to call the army.

The main force had returned the day before yesterday, and since Shen Sangyu was still here, he reported the situation to Yang Junzhi.

Yang Junzhi responded, “Although Sangyu didn’t say anything, I can feel that she is under a lot of pressure.

The army is not in a hurry to come back, so let Sangyu take care of herself.”

Wen Qingchuan certainly wanted this too. He was worried that if they hurried back on the road, Sangyu might fall ill again.

“I see. Thank you, Chief.”

“Why thank me? Thanks to Sangyu for making the drone this time. The higher-ups attach great importance to this development. It is their intention to let Sangyu recover fully and come back.

However, they asked that she come over after she’s feeling better. We need to submit the report on the drone to the higher-ups.”

After saying that, Yang Junzhi thought of something else: “By the way, Sangyu spent 30,000 yuan on the parts for the drone before.

I’ll arrange for someone to reimburse her, but the source of the money…”

Yang Junzhi hesitated, not knowing how to proceed.

Wen Qingchuan’s salary was essentially fixed. Even with bonuses for going on missions, it was less than 100 yuan a month at most.

Even if Wen Qingchuan didn’t spend any money over the past ten years, he couldn’t save that much.

“This money is from Sangyu’s business with others. The sweatshirts and bell-bottom pants that the military wives in the compound are clamoring to buy are all designed by Sangyu. She told me about it.”

Wen Qingchuan felt a sense of pride as he spoke.

He knew Shen Sangyu was talented, but when he witnessed the military wives vying to purchase the clothes made by his wife without knowing she was the designer he couldn’t help but feel proud.

Sometimes he wanted to walk over and announce loudly that it was his wife who did it!

Yang Junzhi was also proud to hear this: “I know; I will tell the higher-ups and arrange for someone to reimburse you as soon as possible.”

Wen Qingchuan agreed and hung up the phone.

When he walked back to the store, his meals were packed.

It was the first time Wen Qingchuan felt so relaxed, especially when he saw Shen Sangyu wake up after his return, and the doctor was removing a needle from her arm.

Shen Sangyu couldn’t help but frown at the sight of blood splashing out of her arm.

Suddenly, she noticed a familiar figure standing at the door. Shen Sangyu looked over, and when she saw Wen Qingchuan leaning against the door, her eyes brightened: “Wen Qingchuan, you’re back.”

“Yeah.” Wen Qingchuan glanced at the back of Shen Sangyu’s hand, which had swollen from multiple injections.

He placed the food down and took a cotton swab to press against the needle site on Shen Sangyu’s arm that was still bleeding. “I brought you food; eat a little later.”

After hearing this, the nurse interjected from the side, “You can’t eat anything too greasy or spicy.”

Wen Qingchuan opened the food containers and examined them. When he saw that there was no more bleeding, but the swelling was still significant, he asked, “How long do you need to press it?”

The nurse assessed the situation and replied, “Press it for four or five minutes.”

Wen Qingchuan nodded solemnly and pressed the cotton swab against her arm for the instructed duration.

Sensing Shen Sangyu’s discomfort, she managed to chuckle and said, “Actually, there’s no need to do that.

My hand is already swollen. If I press it for too long, it will turn blue tomorrow.”

Wen Qingchuan pursed his lips and responded, “I’ll find you two slices of raw potatoes to apply to it.”

Shen Sangyu had no choice but to agree.

Suddenly, she saw the millet porridge on the cabinet and said with a smile, “Wen Qingchuan, I’m hungry.”

Wen Qingchuan was about to say that they would eat later, but seeing Shen Sangyu’s condition, he replied, “I’ll feed you.”
