Chapter 1651: Tang Xi vs Ling Hui (8)
His face was wrapped in gauze and an oxygen mask was placed over his face.
She could not see his face at all.
He lay there unmoving. Her heart ached at that sight.
Ling Hui seemed to be able to feel his pain and she wanted to bear it for him.
The scene of him going to see her during the day appeared in her mind.
There had been an indecent smile on his handsome face as he said that he would continue to woo her even if he had become an old man if he did not manage to woo her now.
At that time, his smile had been devilish.
She really regretted not agreeing to him at that time.
She had countless things she wanted to tell him but she had not told him that she had really fallen for him.
It was not because of gratitude.
She wanted to be with him. Although she had said that she would not forgive him easily, she had never thought that they would really become strangers!
She did not like to cry. It had been many years since she had cried like this.
Tears fell onto her lips. They were salty and bitter, just like her heart.
Tang Xi, don’t sleep here for the rest of your life. When you wake up, I’ll marry you, okay?
Gu Meng went downstairs to buy bread and water, and passed them to Ling Hui. Ling Hui shook her head. She couldn’t stomach anything.
When the Tang family received the news, they rushed over.
When Old Madam Tang saw Tang Xi in the ICU, she could not take the blow and fainted.
Tang Jing held Mother Tang’s hand. Mother Tang was mentally unstable and did not even know who was lying in the ICU and kept muttering that she had to look for her child.
Tang Jing placed a doll in her arms, and she carried it and sat down in a corner, coaxing it softly.
Tang Jing’s hair had turned white recently. He stood beside Ling Hui and looked at Tang Xi through the glass window.
He had only one son. In his heart, Tang Xi was the best.
But now, his son had been hurt so badly by Liu Ping.
His family had been ruined.
Ling Hui wiped the tears from her face. She knew that Tang Jing was the one under the most pressure in the Tang family now.
“Uncle Tang, Tang Xi knows the responsibility on his shoulders. He will definitely wake up. We have to believe in him.”
Tang Jing looked at Ling Hui. This was the first time he had looked at Ling Hui properly.
In the past, when he found out that she was Dai Lang’s daughter, he had always been biased. He did not understand why his son would like her.
From this incident involving Liu Ping, Tang Jing could tell that Ling Hui was not just a vase. She was smart, calm, rational, and exuded a unique charm.
She was an outstanding girl!
Tang Jing nodded with a heavy expression. “I believe that he will wake up.”
…
Half a year later.
Ling Hui went to Tang Xi’s ward as usual.
Ever since Tang Xi’s accident, she had never left the capital and would come to the hospital every day.
There were some people beside her who advised her to stop being stubborn.
It was very likely that Tang Xi would never wake up.
But she had never thought of leaving him.
It had only been half a year. Even if it was half a century, she would not give up as long as she was still alive.
Although she came to the ward every day, her mood was different every day.
The scars on his face had already healed and new flesh had grown out. There was no difference from his original appearance, but his face was much thinner.
He had suffered the most injuries on his body.
There were many scars.
Every day when Ling Hui came, she would touch his face and hands first.
She really hoped that his fingers would move the moment she held his hand.
Ling Hui buried her face in his palm and said softly and hoarsely, “Tang Xi, I’m still waiting for you to propose to me. Can you wake up? I promise you that as long as you wake up, we’ll get married.”
“Do you still want to marry me? I’m already prepared.”
“It will be Mengmeng and the Third Prince’s wedding in three days. Mengmeng will be the bride. I’m so happy and envious. Although I got married once, it was an unhappy marriage. I want to be your bride. Tang Xi, wake up!”
“For the past six months, Uncle Tang has been accompanying Auntie Yu’er and he’s brought her to many doctors for treatment. However, Auntie Yu’er is still afraid that her child will not be around every day. The doctor said that if her son accompanies her, she might get better one day.”
“Tang Xi, we all need you. Don’t sleep anymore, okay?”
When the nurse came by during her daily ward rounds, she would always hear Ling Hui talking to Tang Xi. Every time the nurse heard Ling Hui begging Tang Xi to wake up, her eyes would turn red.
As time passed, the medical staff really hoped that Tang Xi would wake up soon.
They could not bear to see Ling Hui sad anymore.
…
The day before Gu Meng got married, Ling Hui came to the hospital again.
Her slender fingers caressed Tang Xi’s thin and well-defined face.
“Tang Xi, I might not be able to come to the hospital tomorrow. Mengmeng is getting married and I want to attend her wedding. I can only come and talk to you at night. Mengmeng looks so beautiful in a wedding dress. The Third Prince looks so handsome in a suit…”
Ling Hui grabbed Tang Xi’s well-defined hand and kissed his fingers. Tears fell from her eyes. “Tang Xi, I like you… If you want me to say that I love you, can you wake up?”
Ling Hui looked up at the man’s indifferent face and pretended to be angry.
“If you continue to sleep, I’ll be angry. You know that the consequences will be very serious if I’m angry.”
As usual, Ling Hui stayed in the hospital for a long time before leaving.
She did not notice that the man’s fingers moved slightly as she walked out of the ward.
…
On the day of Gu Meng and Ye Qing’s wedding, the sky was clear and cloudless. It was a very comfortable weather.
Their wedding was held in the royal church.
After the King and Queen’s wedding, this was another grand wedding of the century.
Gu Meng was wearing a white wedding dress. Her black hair was tied into a bun and she wore a bright diamond tiara on her head. Behind her long skirt were her little page boy and flower girl, Little Gugu and Little Tiantian.
Walking on the red carpet, Gu Meng looked at the handsome man in a suit in front of her and a sweet smile appeared on her lips under the veil.
The two of them had gone through trials and tribulations to get to where they were today.
There was sweetness, bitterness, conflict, misunderstanding, happiness, sweetness…
However, no matter how much they had experienced, they had still become a couple in the end.
From now on, she was his Princess Consort and he was her husband.
Walking over to the man, their eyes met and she saw affection and love in his deep black eyes.
The priest read out the vows and asked if they were willing to be each other’s partners for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health. She looked at him and answered with focus and certainty, “I’m willing!”
The church erupted in applause.
Ling Hui looked on as the groom kissed the bride and tears filled her eyes.
