C990 He Was the Pillar of Life
She was in a car accident with Ni Chenjun. She had been struggling on the brink of death for nine days. Ni Chenjun's condition would not be any better.
However, it was still alright if Ni Chenjun wasn't mentioned. Once Ni Chenjun was mentioned, Shen Ke's expression stiffened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He did not elaborate, "He... is still unconscious."
Shen Yi noticed Shen Ke deliberately avoiding her and realized that Ni Chenjun's situation might not be good. She quickly asked, Is his life out of danger?
Shen Ke took a deep look at her and quickly turned his eyes away. He did not answer her question and instead reached out to help her pull the blanket, "You have just gotten out of danger. Don't worry so much. He is fine."
"Dad..." Shen Yi frowned and endured the pain in her throat.
Her voice was weak and hoarse. The continuous piercing sound seemed to be coming out of her throat. Shen Ke's heart ached. He quickly said in a low voice, "Stop talking. You just woke up. We will talk slowly."
After saying that, he went to pour Shen Yi some water. The cold hot water was mixed into warm water and then inserted a straw in front of Shen Yi.
Shen Yi did not drink and just looked at Shen Ke, "How... How is he..."
"He did not..." Shen Ke wanted to say that Ni Chenjun was fine, but halfway through his sentence, Shen Yi's eyes were filled with hope and begging, but he could not say it.
How could he be fine? The truck hit Ni Chenjun's side during the car accident, and when the two of them fell off the bridge, it was also Ni Chenjun and Shen Yi on the other side. Not to mention the puncture wound on the back of the head that shattered the skull, even the doctor said... If it was not for Shen Yi's hand protecting him, Ni Chenjun would not have been able to wait for rescue.
Shen Yi operated for eleven and a half hours, and Ni Chenjun operated for twenty-one hours. When the doctor came out of the operating theater, he couldn't even say a word of comfort. He only said that it was a miracle that he survived. He was just short of telling them to prepare for the funeral. Liang Feifei, who had just rushed back from overseas, heard this sentence and immediately gave in. When she woke up, tears fell down without even opening her eyes.
No one could accept that a good son could only lie on the hospital bed and wait for death in the blink of an eye.
Ni Chenjun had been out of the operating theater for eight days, and he was still lying unconscious in the ICU.
But... how should he tell Shen Yi these words?
Shen Ke was silent for a long time, and finally he only sighed, "Wait until you get better, then go and see him."
Wait till she recovers before going to see him?
Shen Yi was stunned. She had been lying on the bed for nine days before she woke up. It was already a moment of life and death danger, but now Shen Ke told her to wait for her to get better before going to see him.
Shen Yi said with difficulty, "Is she out of danger?"
Shen Ke shook his head, "No."
Shen Yi's tears immediately fell.
She wanted to get off the bed to see him, but she could not control her body. No matter which part of her body she wanted to use, all she could feel was endless pain and stiffness. The only two parts of her body that could move were her eyes and mouth.
"Can I go and see him? Just take a look." Shen Yi almost begged.
Shen Ke did not immediately reply and only looked at Shen Yi. He then raised his hand to help her wipe away the tears that rolled down her face, "Yi listen to me and take good care of your injuries. Daddy can't be without you."
The tears fell even more fiercely and Shen Yi once again begged, "Daddy..."
Shen Yi's voice was very hoarse and every turn of her voice was rough and rough like it was torn apart. When one heard it, each word was filled with blood and grief.
Shen Ke's heart ached so much that he could not breathe. He did not want to see her sad, but he could only cruelly reject her.
This was his and Ye Wan's only daughter. It was his daughter who was afraid of falling and turning into a woman. He had loved her for nineteen years without holding anything back. The love and painstaking effort he had poured into her was something he couldn't afford to give up twice in his life. She was the pillar of his life, the lighthouse of his soul. He couldn't lose her.
"Yi, listen to me. Wait until your body recovers before going to see him." After wiping away his tears, Shen Ke did not put his hand down. Instead, it flowed slowly between Shen Yi's forehead and hair. Every movement and silence was filled with deep love. "I have fantasized countless times. If possible, I am willing to bear all the pain and suffering in this world for you. As long as you can be safe and happy, no matter what price you have to pay, I can accept it."
"But Yi, two such incidents are already enough. I don't know if I still have the courage to bear such a blow for the third time. So, you must be fine, okay?"
Shen Yi looked at him and sobbed silently.
Shen Ke leaned over, tilted his head, and gently rubbed Shen Yi's head. He said in a deep voice, "If you have anything to do, how do you want Dad to live?"
