Chapter 649

Furthermore, she also remembered what happened before she lost consciousness.

She didn't expect that Gu Lao would actually call Qiao Muting over.

Actually, she was fine.

One hour later.

The several doctors who had just been crowded into the hospital room finally left after performing various examinations on Shu Xia.

The hospital room returned to quiet.

Shu Xia's condition was also much better than when she had just woken up.

After drinking some water and some porridge, she gradually regained her strength.

"I only fainted, it's nothing."

Calling so many doctors here was a huge waste of time.

If other patients knew that the doctors had all come to her, they would definitely have complaints; it was too much of a waste of medical resources.

Qiao Muting looked at Shu Xia without speaking, not knowing what he was thinking.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tezhu's mouth twitched violently, "Ma'am, you didn't just faint; you were in a coma for nearly four days. During these four days, your body temperature kept dropping, and no cause could be found despite various examinations. The doctors even concluded two hours ago that there was a possibility you might never wake up and would be no different from a vegetative state in the future. This is not 'nothing,' it was absolutely terrifying!"

"Four days? I was in a coma for that long?" Shu Xia was incredibly surprised.

No wonder Qiao Muting was so shocked when she first woke up, and those doctors just now were all talking about a miracle.

The brief faint she had assumed it was had actually lasted four days.

"It was indeed a long time." Qiao Muting stared at Shu Xia and spoke in a deep voice.

Shu Xia felt very apologetic, "I made you all worry."

She also hadn't expected to suffer such a severe backlash. She hadn't paid attention to it at the time, so before losing consciousness, she was thinking about how to have Gu Lao and the others dispose of that Phoenix Ornament.

If she had known she would be in a coma for so long, she definitely would have said not to worry about her.

"Shu Xuan called you just now; do you want to call him back now?" Qiao Muting handed over the phone.

Shu Xia reached out to take it.

Their hands touched.

Qiao Muting keenly noticed that her fingertips were slightly cool.

He immediately stared at Shu Xia and asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere right now?"

Shu Xia was stunned by the question, "No, I feel pretty good right now, and I have strength after eating."

The doctor had just said she only needed to rest for two days to recover.

Why did it feel like Qiao Muting was suddenly very nervous?

Qiao Muting still frowned tightly and held her hand, "Your hands are still very cold."

He glanced at Zhang Tezhu, "Go call the doctor over."

"Really, there's no need. I'm really fine now. It's normal for my hands to be cold; I touched that ornament and need time to recover. Don't worry, it's nothing." Shu Xia hurriedly stopped him.

Qiao Muting looked at her deeply and said, "Alright."

Seeing that Qiao Muting was still holding her hand, Shu Xia reminded him, "I'll call my brother first."

"Let's go out first and notify Gu Lao and Chen Lao." Qiao Muting nodded, and he and Zhang Tezhu walked out.

After the hospital room door closed, Shu Xia let out a sigh of relief.

The way Qiao Muting had looked at her just now was as if he were looking at someone very important to him who had been lost and found again. She needed strong self-control to keep from falling into it.

Facing a Qiao Muting with such great charm every day, she didn't know how much longer she could hold her defenses.

She had even started to uncontrollably let her imagination run wild just now.

She took a deep breath and called Shu Xuan.

"Brother, I was busy just now."

Shu Xuan said, "Mom called me just now and said you were renting a place with someone else outside, and she had never been to see you. Since she has time today, she wants to come see you around dinner time and have a meal with you. She asked me for your address, but I made up an excuse that I was busy and would send it to her after I finished. Xia Xia, I'm afraid your marriage can't be hidden anymore; you'll have to bring your husband to meet the family."
