Chapter 5: There's Always an End

I stood up from the bench, and Mi Cai walked through the hospital corridor to my side. She did not greet me, Yan Yan and others first, but stood outside the glass window, across a wall, looking at Jian Wei, who had never been so peaceful, without any expression, so I couldn't see the emotions in her heart. Until she sighed softly and closed her eyes, she realized that there was a turbulence in her calm appearance...I finally realized that my life and I were once integrated, just like waves chasing waves. In my extremely sad mood, how could she not be infected by chasing her hard behind me!

I stood beside her and looked at Jian Wei who was "sleeping" with her. I never thought that the three of us who were bound by fate would be in the current form, relatively silent, but their hearts were broken...

After a long time, Mi Cai finally turned her body, leaving Jian Wei who was suffering in her sight. I also turned her body with her next second...

She took out a breakfast that was still warm from her handbag and handed it to me, saying, "I just bought you breakfast on the way, you can eat it while it's hot."

"I..." I choked up after saying this word. At this time, I wanted to hug her and recall the past together. There was no need to flow through the river in winter like now, but the spring water was separated by a river.

Mi Cai gently put the bag on my hand, and said nothing more. She just sat down beside Yan Yan, looking at the people who were entering and leaving the hospital with some sensation. I could see her thoughts, how could she have no thoughts! After all, this thought in life gave us too many emotions, prompting us to make a decision to change our original life... And I no longer want the ordinary life I long for, but what decision will Mi Cai make?

I finally finished the breakfast brought by Micai in a complicated mood. She then said to me: "Zhaoyang, you and I will go to meet the brain experts from Shanghai later. They will give a set of auxiliary treatment plans based on Jian Wei's current situation."

I nodded, and Mi Cai raised her hand and looked at the watch again, and fell into silence again. This silence filled us with a sense of distance that could not be expressed in words.

......

At some point, another hurried footsteps came from the corridor. We subconsciously turned our heads and looked. At first glance, I couldn't see who the person was. It was just because of the white hair that I couldn't remember it was him. Later, I confirmed that the person was Jian Wei's biological father, Jian Boyu, and two law enforcement officers in plain clothes were following him.

I realized that this was a father-daughter meeting with extrajudicial mercy...but, Jian Boyu, a once arrogant hero, has become much older. At this time, his eyes are deep, and his white hair tells the desolation in his heart!

As he approached the ward, his footsteps became staggering and his body was trembling. He seemed not afraid to approach the glass window and stood in the ward one meter away to look. His extremely sadness filled his old face...

He raised his head and cried... He shouted vaguely, his whole body was in an unrelieved collapse. Yan Yan and Qin Yan supported him from left to right, but there was no words that could comfort him in the pain and despair at this moment!

"Xiaowei, dad is guilty... It's dad who is sorry for you... If you can choose, dad will not make mistakes in many things. It's a pity... It's a pity that dad woke up too late!" Jian Boyu's voice was filled with pain from the heart. He walked step by step to the only glass window where Jian Wei could see him. The unbearable pain once again hit him trembling...

Two law enforcement officers in plain clothes gave him some space. After a moment, they reminded him to hurry up. Every second he looked at Jian Wei was extravagant. His ability to visit was just a favor for him outside the law. After all, he would have to return to the place where he should be and wait for the trial of the law.

Jian Boyu restrained his sorrow and came to me, saying to me in a deep voice with a look of guilt: "Zhaoyang, I don't have much time, just tell me a short story... I hope you can take good care of Xiaowei, wake her up, and let her live a healthy life in the future... Her mother and I no longer have the ability to do anything for her. All he can rely on is you friends!"

Looking at Jian Boyu's miserable appearance, the dissatisfaction with him in the past had already disappeared with the wind of time. I nodded and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I will do my best to get Jian Wei to wake up."

Jian Boyu nodded, looked back at Jian Wei who seemed to be sleeping, and then pressed his forehead and tried his best to control his emotions, saying, "Once upon a time, the stupidest thing her mother and I did was to stop you from being together... At that time, what we wanted was a decent son-in-law. We had to have methods and means to be able to take over our careers in the future. So we didn't like you and opposed you being with Xiaowei. We put on glasses of fame and fortune and looked at you superficially... What exactly is fame and fortune?"

Jian Boyu shook his head again, smiled bitterly, and said with tears in his thin face: "Those who can be defended are fame and profit, and those who can't be defended are a beheaded knife... But her mother and I woke up too late. We are sorry to Xiaowei, which made her lose a man who values ​​love and righteousness. In the past, there were too many people who wanted to become relatives with me. There were dignitaries and nobles and wealthy merchants. But when our family fell, we stayed by Xiaowei's side, and you were the only one who did not care about rewards... I have a heartless request. If... you still have a little old love for Xiaowei, and you will marry her when she wakes up, then my mother and I will die without regrets...!"

I looked at Jian Boyu, and time seemed to be misplaced at this moment. If he had been willing to let us go more than three years ago, why would we elope to Suzhou to live in a dark and dark way? If Jian Wei's mother had seen through the essence of fame and fortune and performed her duties conscientiously in her position, how could she cut off all the road to turning back... But the most regrettable thing is that there is no if in this world. The rugged road was placed in front of us, and standing or kneeling would have to be completed.

But, what kind of animal is a human? Why do we always realize regret after paying a heavy price, but the wisdom of foresight is very pitiful!

I looked at Mi Cai again. She had already carried her body over her back and facing the withered bonsai in the corner of the wall. I had no idea. At this moment, she was thinking about something in her heart, and did she hope that I could agree to Jian Boyu's request, and then no longer have to miss the past that happened to me, and could leave without worrying about me, a man who made her sad again and again?

I finally said to Jian Boyu: "Uncle, I have indeed loved Jian Wei deeply, but over the years, we have gone further and further because of time and some things. The lost feelings are really impossible to pick up. But I can guarantee you that if I have a dime in this world, I will not give her nine points. If she wakes up, I am willing to give her everything except love... Please believe that she will be happy with me or not!"

"Do you still hate me and her mother?...I hate that we woke up too late!"

"I don't like to hate anyone, but Jian Wei and I have really gone too far... Or, I'll tell you this, it's the most important thing to wake up Jian Wei, and is there a future premise? Are you right?"

Jian Boyu nodded after a long time. He approached me and whispered in my ear: "Zhaoyang, if Xiaowei still wakes up, find a way to send her abroad... Don't pursue her injuries anymore. Let her live peacefully and safely, which is her greatest happiness!"

I immediately became alert and asked, "Uncle, do you know something?"

Jian Boyu's face was deep, and finally shook his head, saying, "Human nature is terrifying. You are all too kind. Avoiding is the safest choice."

"Uncle, is this affair the enemy you and your aunt messed with in the world of fame and fortune?"

My heart was beating violently. If Jian Boyu gave me a positive answer, it would not be Yan Zhuomei's actions. Mi Cai and I would have a difficult hurdle to overcome...

"Zhaoyang, listen to my uncle's advice. The less you know about this, the better. Remember not to find the truth. Some things are not something that people in your circle can touch. Xiaowei's mother and I were investigated too suddenly. We still can't figure out the details inside."

Speaking of this, two law enforcement officers in plain clothes began to remind Jian Boyu that the time for visiting him was already up, and asked him to leave immediately...

Before leaving, Jian Boyu looked deep in the intensive care unit again, as if he had grown a little older in an instant, and then walked towards the end of the hospital corridor with heavy steps. His back was filled with helpless pain. At this moment, who would still believe that he was the person who once called the wind and rain in the world of fame and fortune? Time has the ability to change a person to an unrecognizable face. This is true for Jian Boyu, and so is Jian Wei...

......

The hospital corridor became calm. I temporarily put aside my doubts and looked at Mi Cai who had not left but turned his back to me. At this moment, I had basically no motivation to doubt Yan Zhuomei. Finally, I mustered up the courage to walk to her side and whispered: "I'm sorry, I was too extreme yesterday..."
