Chapter 285 - Awake A Min

Chapter 285 Awake A Min

After the meal, Yu Sihan coaxed Yaya to give him a kiss him, before he left, contentedly.

A Miao put Yaya to bed and returned to her bedroom, with a pale face.

“Are you still thinking about what he said?” Shen Xinglan turned to face her and kissed her cheek. “Don’t take his words seriously. Only half of what he says can be trusted.”

“Yu Sihan said that his family and the A family have a long history, united by marriage. If his father had been healthy, he would have been A Miao’s father.”

“You think he was lying, right?” A Miao was relieved. “He said that it was the rules of the ancestors, but I don’t believe him! Even if it was true before, it is not so now.”

Shen Xinglan thought there was more to it than this. In his opinion, there were many irregularities in Yu Sihan’s words. However, he would check them out slowly in the future, and A Miao need not worry about it.

“Fortunately, we don’t have a child named A, so you don’t have to worry about being targeted by the Yu family.”

Yu Sihan sat in the car, his fingers drumming on his knees, with his eyes closed. The subordinate sitting opposite him, hesitated for a long time, before he opened his mouth.

“Young Master, the playground can be started!”

“Ok.”

Yu Sihan answered slightly.

“The news from the Jiang family said that Xiao Mei is done with her drug treatment…” The man looked at him carefully, “but she looks very different.”

Xiao Mei came out of the drug rehabilitation program a month ago. In just one month, she had become the favorite of the master of the Xiao family, and joined the company to re-manage the business.

“Did someone teach her?” Yu Sihan opened his eyes, and asked with some interest.

The subordinate shook his head. “She didn’t contact anyone at the drug rehabilitation center.”

“Check it out.” Yu Sihan said coldly, “See if there is anything different in her living habits.”

The subordinate answered, “Did the master suspect that Xiao Mei had been replaced? It’s not difficult to change a face now…”

Yu Sihan closed his eyes slowly. It was weird. Something strange must have happened to Xiao Mei.

In the hospital.

Le Yi was about to perform a surgery on A Min. A Miao heard that the operation had a certain chance of failure, and A Min might die on the operating table, so she came to see him today.

“If he can’t wake up anymore, I want to bury him next to my mother.” A Miao looked at the man lying on the bed, “Let him explain to my mother!”

Shen Xinglan cuddled her, “Don’t worry. Le Yi will wake him up.”

“Go home, both of you!” Le Yi walked in, wearing hospital scrubs. “If the operation goes well, he will be awake by tomorrow afternoon.”

Before A Miao left, she took a long look at the man on the hospital bed. He was her father, whom she had been looking for, since she was a kid. But after she found him, she regretted having found him. Maybe, this time… would be the last time she saw him.

“Boss!” On the way home, Shen I received a call, “Wei Meng called.”

Shen Xinglan picked it up and asked A Miao with a smile, after he listened for a while, “Would you like to see the migratory birds in flight?”

Wei Meng was standing on the reef beach, and not far from her, was a crowd of seabirds. Ding V squatted by her side, and it looked as if he had a tail behind him.

“Wei Meng!” A Miao got out of the car and waved.

Shen Xinglan helped her to go over, and Ding V gave them a look.

“It’s just a group of birds flying together. Why would you want to see that?” Wei Meng’s face was expressionless, and her tone held a touch of contempt.

A Miao blinked, “Yes! I would love to see it. Let them fly!”

“Then we can go home.” Ding V nodded hard.

Shen Xinglan stared at him for a moment, and said nothing.

A piercing tone came from Wei Meng’s mouth. When A Miao was about to cover her ears, a pair of warm hands did that, before her.

“Let me cover your ears as well!” She looked up and smirked at Shen Xinglan, as she reached out and covered his ears.

A flock of black birds flew over the sky, and very soon, none were left. Wei Meng turned to look at the two people, who were embracing, curled her lip, and said, “Let’s go. Drive and follow them.”

First, they were worried that the birds would turn back halfway; second, they had to ensure that no one would hunt the birds. The two cars went all the way to the resort, watching the birds from a distance.

“Do we go in?” When they arrived at the resort, Shen I turned in front of the door.

Shen Xinglan pointed at the mountain behind. “We will go directly to the back of the mountain. There is a wetland.”

“The birds are here!” A few minutes later, they reached the back of the mountain. A Miao found, to her surprise, that the large group of birds had landed among the reeds, on the wetlands.

“Let’s go home. They will be fine.” Wei Meng popped out and shouted from the car.

Shen Xinglan rolled the window down, “Have you called the reporters?”

“I have, and they will be here soon.”

When they returned, A Miao saw only a few inconspicuous cars, and Shen I told her that they were from the TV stations.

The Evening News reported on this magical phenomenon, and an expert said that the birds might have found a more suitable habitat, so they chose to migrate.

“Damn!” Ji Yan, who was watching TV, put out his cigarette.

Ji Xue complained to him, “See, if we waited for a little longer, these birds would have flown away. Now you willingly handed this project to Shen Xinglan.”

“Do you really think it’s as simple as what the news reported?” Ji Yan turned off the TV angrily. “Why didn’t the birds fly away before? Why did they migrate as soon as Shen Xinglan took over the program?”

Ji Xue snorted, “What else can it be? It could not be because Shen Xinglan told them to fly, then they left.”

“Don’t be ridiculous. How about the few people I asked you to contact?”

Ji Yan did not limit Ji Xue’s socialization, instead, he encouraged her. He hoped she would make friends with some people who could be of use to them.

“I have done my best!” Ji Xue said discontentedly. “They are unwilling to talk to me. Why do I have to fawn on them?”

“You are really useless!” Ji Yan looked coldly at his sister, as if she was a retard. “I am telling you that if things go like this, the Ji Corp that we built, will soon disappear.”

Seeing Ji Xue’s astonished expression, Ji Yan said patiently, “You are a big girl. It’s time to do something for the family. We can’t help mother, but we have to develop the company.”

“Well… but what do you want me to do?” Ji Xue knew he was right, but all the women her brother asked her to deal with, looked down on her.

Ji Yan’s eyes became bright, “If they don’t want to talk to you, you can try the men!”

“Brother?” Ji Xue looked at him incredulously. “What do you mean? Do you… want me to…”

“What are you thinking about?” Ji Yan shot her a glare. “I mean, you should try to get in touch with these men.” As he said, he sent a list to Ji Xue through his phone.

“You should take a good look at these people’s characteristics and interests. I don’t need you to charm them. You should leave a good impression on them, or just make friends with them.”

Looking at the information of these people, Ji Xue was relieved to find that all the men were married. That was good, because she thought that Ji Yan would trade her for something!

“You have to be careful. It will be best if you can make friends with their wives. Their words will be helpful.”

“Don’t worry!” Ji Xue said confidently, “I know what to do!”

A Miao received a phone call from Le Yi, when she was sleeping.

“The operation is successful.”

“……I know.”

After hanging up, she was in a panic.

“In any case, he won’t be awake until tomorrow. Even if he is awake, he will be weak, so you should go and see him after a few days.” Shen Xinglan knew that she was very afraid. He held her in his arms, and stroked her back.

“Let’s talk about it tomorrow…” A Miao chose to ignore the problem.

The next afternoon, Le Yi called and told them that A Min was awake.

“Do you want to see him?” Shen Xinglan asked.

A Miao bowed her head, silently. Then she asked, instead of answering, “Where is Yaya?”

“She is taking a nap upstairs with aunt and Little Demon!”

Seeing her fall silent again, he touched her head and said, “If you don’t want to see him, we won’t go.”

“I want to go……”

A Miao had a very complex feeling about her father. She was worried, because she wanted to see the reaction of A Min, after he knew everything, so that he would experience the disappointment and helplessness.

An hour later, she stood at the door of the ward.

“I am going in alone.”

Shen Xinglan nodded. “I will be waiting for you outside. If you need anything, call me.”

In the ward, A Min was lying in bed. When he saw A Miao coming in, he struggled to sit up.

“You should not move, or you will faint, and I have to call the doctor.” A Miao’s voice sounded calm. She looked at A Min, and could not help being a little surprised.

The man’s temperament had changed completely. Even though he was lying there, with his head wrapped in gauze, he still looked like a superior.

“A Miao…” The man stared at her, and as soon as he opened his mouth, tears fell from his eyes.

He had regained his memory. He remembered how he met Ai Wa; how he almost drowned and how he had forgotten about the woman he loved and his daughter…

“You…” A Miao didn’t know what to say.

“I remember,” A Min said painfully. “I’m sorry, I don’t deserve to be a father.”

A Miao shook her head. “You don’t need to apologize to me. You should apologize to my mother.”

“Lil He…” A Min sobbed, “Woo…woo…!”

The man let out a painful lament and jumped up from the bed. When A Miao realized that he was acting strangely, she hurried out to look for a doctor.

“He is too emotional!” Le Yi rushed in, and asked the nurse to give A Min a sedative.

Shen Xinglan put his arms around A Miao, and found she was also shaking.

“Let’s go back first,” he said, as he supported A Miao.

At night, Le Yi called and said that A Min could not be awakened.

“What do you mean?” A Miao said worriedly.

“Humans have a self-protection mechanism, which makes him sleep because he refuses to face reality.” Le Yi felt helpless. What was the point in making so much effort to wake him up?

A Miao hung up and her face was bleak. Shen Xinglan wanted to comfort her, when A Miao suddenly jumped up and shouted.

“He is a coward! I look down on him! Why doesn’t he want to wake up? Why doesn’t he dare to face it? Why do I have to be alone? Ah? Why?”

Shen Xinglan was shocked, as he hugged her.

“Woo…” A Miao cried bitterly. “How could he do this… How could he do this to me…”

“Don’t cry. I will wake him up and get him to face it.” Shen Xinglan narrowed his eyes, and darkness flashed in his eyes.
