[New York Hospital, USA]
The dazzling sunlight woke Yahua, who had fallen asleep due to a large blood transfusion. Yahua rubbed her sleepy eyes and propped up her weak body, unable to remember where she was.
The hospital! Chu Lian had fallen from upstairs! At the thought of this, Yahua anxiously removed the IV drip from her hand and rushed out of the ward, ignoring the nurse's attempts to stop her.
When he walked to Chu Lian's intensive care unit, the patient information board at the head of the bed indicated that the person lying on the bed with injuries all over his body and bandages all over his face was Chu Lian. The device beside him beeped as if it was proving that Chu Lian was still alive. The tubes and wires on Chu Lian's body were the foundation that kept him alive. Gazing at the person in front of her, whom she had secretly liked since she was studying in France, the always optimistic and strong Yahua also shed tears.
" Ding…" It was the sound of his phone, but his phone didn't ring. He listened carefully and realized that it was coming from Chu Lian's side. Beside the bed, there were the patient's belongings that had been arranged. Yahua took out Chu Lian's phone and saw that it was his mother's name on the screen. Yahua hesitated for a long time, not knowing whether she should answer the call or not.
The phone rang for a long time and finally stopped ringing. Yahua heaved a sigh of relief, but it rang again immediately. The vibrating phone in her hand seemed to be a mother calling her son. She had no choice. If she didn't pick up, Mother Chu would be very worried. Yahua nervously pressed the call button.
"Hello, Chu Lian! Why did you take so long to pick up the phone! Your dad and I are so worried! Are you dating an American girl?……Chu Pei, don't mess around!" A kind voice and a young man's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello, Auntie!" Yahua said with a lack of confidence.
"Is this…Chu Lian's phone?”Xinyi asked suspiciously.
"Hello, Auntie. This is Chu Lian's phone. I'm Chu Lian's colleague. My name is Yahua." Yahua braced herself and continued.
"Ah, hello, daughter. Eh? You're also from China?" Xinyi also felt like she had met an old friend in a foreign land.
"Yes, Auntie." Yahua didn't know what to say, so she just continued to talk, taking it one step at a time.
"Aiya, then I'll have to trouble you to take care of my Chu Lian! This child, Chu Lian, always doesn't eat on time and his life is irregular. Especially since he hasn't been in a good mood recently. If it's convenient for you, take care of him…Aiya, my dear wife, why are you telling me this? Don't make me feel annoyed. Go and look for Chu Lian.”Mother Chu was muttering on the other end of the phone when Father Chu's voice suddenly sounded. "Aiya, look at how old I am. I'm always willing to nag. Then, daughter, help me find Chu Lian.”
" Aunty…" Yahua's mind raced as she tried to find an excuse.
"What's wrong? Isn't Chu Lian by your side?" Xinyi asked doubtfully.
"Auntie, it's like this. There's a very important architectural examination in the United States. Because Chu Lian is very outstanding, he was transferred to set the questions for the paper. Because the test papers were very important and they were afraid of leaking the questions, all the engineers who produced the test papers had to produce the test papers at a designated location. They could not go out or contact the outside world. Chu Lian entrusted his phone to me. He said that he would let you know when you called, so that you wouldn't worry.”After saying that, Ya Hua was a little impressed by her own adaptability.
"Ah? Why didn't this child tell us that he was going to set the questions?”
"At that time, the mission was rather urgent and I left in a hurry. He even instructed me to tell you. I was just about to call you when I received your call.”Yahua said in shock. She felt that her excuse was full of loopholes. However, Xinyi was such an honest person that she believed Yahua's words without a doubt.
"Dear, our son is so capable. He went to the United States to set some large-scale architectural examination questions! Look! How powerful! That daughter, when will he come back?”
" This..." Yahua was a little troubled. She looked at Chu Lian, who was wrapped up like a mummy on the bed. She really did not know when he would recover. Forget it, let's talk about the time first. If it doesn't work, we'll talk about it.
"Auntie, the company informed us that it might take three months, but it might also be extended."
"Aiya, it took so long?"
"Well…because the exam this time is more important!”Yahua said fearfully," Aunty, if you need anything, just call me. I'll do my best to help."”
"Then, daughter, thank you. Then I'll hang up first!"
"Goodbye, Auntie!" Yahua hung up the phone and heaved a sigh of relief.
