Seeing Su Yu wake up, Mrs. Su was the most emotional person and her tension finally eased after holding her son and crying for a while.
When Huo Mian entered, she saw Su Yu was trying to wipe tears off of his mother’s face.
“Mom, stop crying, okay? I’m not dead…” Su Yu sounded weak.
“Shut up. What nonsense are you talking about?”
Older people regarded talk about death as a taboo.
“Ha… I’m fine now. You must take care of yourself. If you hurt yourself crying, what shall I do?”
“I cried because I was terrified…” Mrs. Su’s eyes were red with crying.
At her age, Mrs. Su’s goal in life was making sure her only son was safe and sound. If something happened to him, she’d be devastated.
“Yeah. It’s my fault. Mom, please don’t cry. You can hit me or scold me, but please don’t cry. My heart hurts when I see you cry.”
Su Yu was clumsy with girls but was an expert in soothing his mother.
Obviously, Mrs. Su felt better when she heard these words and wiped tears from her eyes with a small handkerchief.
Huo Mian chose this moment to walk into the room and said, “Aunt, you must be tired after staying up for one day and one night. Go and have some rest. Leave everything to me.”
“Mian, it’s so good to see you. Come and do a checkup on Yu.”
“Yeah, I will. Please go home and sleep, okay?”
Huo Mian persuaded Mrs. Su gently.
“Fine. I’ll go home and take a nap.”
“Auntie, do Grandpa Su and Uncle Su know about Su Yu’s accident?”
“How can I keep such a big thing from them? I told them but thank God Yu’s fine. I guess his father and grandfather will be home tonight.”
“Good. They can come here together tonight. I haven’t seen them for a while.”
Nodding, Mrs. Su left with a lighter mood.
When the door closed, only Su Yu and Huo Mian were left in the room.
Wearing a white coat and a pair of black frame glasses, Huo Mian looked the same as Su Yu had seen her the first time.
For a moment, Su Yu felt he had traveled back in time and returned to the day a few years ago when he was staying in the South Side Recuperation Center due to his wound in the leg.
At that time, Huo Mian had just become a doctor and sparred with the prince of the Su Family without mercy.
Standing before the bed and looking at Su Yu who had just woken up, Huo Mian felt her eyes turn moist.
“Please don’t cry. I just soothed my mother… I truly don’t have strength to soothe another,” Su Yu said jokingly.
“I won’t cry. I was just thinking you’re indeed hard to kill…”
“Haha. Of course. Grandpa Death doesn’t want me.”
“I say, Mr. Su, why didn’t you ask after Han Yueyao?”
“I don’t have to ask. I’m sure she’s fine… if even I can wake up, she must be faring better than I am; after all, her wounds are less severe,” Su Yu said in conviction.
Huo Mian sighed lightly. “Yeah. At the critical moment, our Great Hero Su turned the steering wheel to save the beautiful girl at the sacrifice of his own life.”
“Hehe. Shouldn’t you applaud my heroic act?” Su Yu laughed proudly.
