Chapter 10

After all, what normal person could endure having a tube inserted into their nose and fed directly into the esophagus?

Furthermore, because the amount of food fed to a vegetative patient cannot be excessive—as too much can easily cause reflux and aspiration, leading to aspiration pneumonia, or in severe cases, even death by suffocation—

it generally does not exceed 150-200mL, requiring small, frequent meals.

This means that Su Su Su Su Su Qingge has to endure this same feeding agony several times a day.

Not to mention other torments like incontinence.

It is easy to imagine the immense psychological pressure Su Su Su Su Su Qingge is currently under.

If this continues, her personality will only become twisted and dark.

"And this is where I come in..."

[It’s so uncomfortable!]

[My nasal cavity is so uncomfortable... my throat hurts so much...]

[I don't want the feeding tube, please, just let me die!]

[I can't hold on anymore... I really can't bear this torture...]

[How long is this pain supposed to last?!]

[I am in so much pain!]

[Someone save me, someone help me... I want to die...]

On the hospital bed.

Su Su Su Su Su Qingge’s expression was normal, sleeping as peacefully as a Sleeping Beauty.

But inside the dark cage of her consciousness,

the discomfort of the feeding tube being forced into her body caused Su Su Su Su Su Qingge immense pain, yet she could not let out a cry.

No one could know her despair; she could only endure it in silence.

Just as Su Su Su Su Su Qingge was in mental agony, on the verge of collapse...

she felt her hand being taken.

Then, a pair of warm, large hands wrapped firmly around it.

Accompanying this was the man’s low voice.

"Su Su Su Su Qingge, it’s very uncomfortable, isn't it..."

"Hold on a little longer, it will be over soon. By the way, let me tell you about myself!"

"After all, we didn't have much interaction before. You must be curious about what kind of person I am, right?"

"Hmm? Where should I start? How about from when I was a child..."

"..."

Lin Xuan spoke word by word, beginning to recount his past.

Elementary school.

Middle school.

High school.

University graduation.

Lin Xuan told the story of his life very slowly and carefully.

But his humorous and interesting storytelling style

gradually drew the attention of the initially numb Su Su Su Su Su Qingge.

[This guy, he wore women's clothes when he was a kid?]

[Sticking his hand into a rice bucket and shouting, "Iron Sand Palm?" Are all boys that chuunibyou?]

[Writing a note saying "I am XX" and sticking it on the back of the classmate in front? Is he sure he isn't talking about me...]

[I really want to reunite with my teachers and classmates again!]

Under Lin Xuan’s reminiscence,

Su Su Su Su Su Qingge unknowingly immersed herself in it.

Her thoughts drifted back to the happy times of her childhood, unable to pull herself out of the memories.

She didn't even realize the "nasal feeding" had ended.

It wasn't until the doctors left the room with strange, puzzled looks, leaving only Liu Yi and the others, that!

Su Su Su Su Su Qingge was startled awake by the sound of the door closing.

When she realized her desperate situation again, she couldn't help but feel a wave of sorrow.

[If only I could experience those happy childhood days once more...]

[Unfortunately... I can never go back...]

Just as Su Su Su Su Su Qingge was filled with sorrow!

Lin Xuan had already reached the events after his mother passed away in a car accident three years ago.

And the warm, pleasant tone began to sour here...

The pain after his mother’s passing.

Lin Lin Lin Lin Jianjun’s infidelity and favoritism.

Bai Yuelan’s feigned fragility.

Lin Hao’s "green tea" act.

The obsession he developed for Su Su Su Su Su Qingge out of jealousy.

The origin of his "intermittent explosive disorder," and the recent break with the Lin family...

Lin Xuan recounted his past bit by bit.

He made it sound light,

but Su Su Su Su Su Qingge and Liu Yi were both heartbroken listening to it.

They had heard of favoring an illegitimate child, but to this extent? It was unheard of!

Lin Xuan’s experience of losing his mother also made Su Su Su Su Su Qingge empathize deeply.

She couldn't help but think of her own family.

Her parents and brother had always been good to her, raising her like a princess.

Unfortunately, five years ago, they went abroad for business and encountered an assassination by unknown forces.

Since then, Su Su Su Su Su Qingge became an orphan and grew up overnight.

She forced herself to learn how to run a company and deal with the ways of the world...

Everything she did was to have the ability to avenge her family once she found the enemies.

[I'm sorry... Mom, Dad, and Brother, I am so useless...]

[As I am now, let alone avenging you, I can't even take care of myself...]

Su Su Su Su Su Qingge’s heart was filled with despair.

At this moment, Lin Xuan spoke again, his words full of confidence.

"Don't worry! Su Su Su Su Qingge, within a month."

"You will definitely wake up! Believe in me!"

"Now that our marriage is a fact, I will treat you as the love of my life."

Hearing this,

Su Su Su Su Su Qingge was noncommittal, but deep down, she didn't believe it.

At this moment, she only took it as Lin Xuan’s well-intentioned lie.

However, she was no longer as repulsed by Lin Xuan as she was at the beginning.

Instead, she quite enjoyed the feeling of being listened to.

After all, since she fell into a coma, no one had talked to her like this for a long time.

Not Liu Yi, nor the doctors or maids in the house.
