Chapter 2067: Chapter 49: Awakening
Wufu has been in a coma for seven days, but time won’t stop because of her coma; ongoing matters won’t pause either.
When the news that Beiyan’s army had captured the Capital City reached in September, Ah Jiu hurriedly went to Zhou Xueli’s courtyard to fetch his son and take him to Wufu.
He didn’t care if his son, born prematurely and weak, might catch an illness; he only thought that the person must not sleep any longer.
Everyone serving in the room knelt down to greet them; Ah Jiu waved them away, leaving only Lu Xiaodie, Bai Xiaobai, and others.
Coming to the bedside, he moved carefully, placing the child next to Wufu, then sat on the bed, saying, "Wufu, we’ve already conquered the Capital City; the Shu region is within our grasp, it’s just a matter of time."
"You’ve slept for so long, isn’t it time to wake up? Such good news, we should share it together. Even if you don’t care about winning or losing, don’t care about me, what about our son?" Ah Jiu gently said, "How you fought with your life to give birth to him, how you protected him. Don’t you want to see him? If you don’t want him, then I won’t want him either."
Ah Jiu looked at his son, reached out to poke his face, leaving a fingerprint.
A ruthless father indeed.
Little Bun was very displeased, pursed his lips, and began to cry loudly, his face quickly turning red.
Lady Liang stood not far away, feeling heartache beyond measure. She had been carefully caring for the child these days, even putting her daughter second, unable to bear seeing him cry like this.
She wanted to step forward to soothe him, but was stopped; she could only suppress her anxiety and wait.
Despite Little Bun crying more fiercely, Ah Jiu neither comforted nor held him. Seeing no one paying attention, Little Bun cried even more sorrowfully, his cries shaking the room.
When Little Bun seemed on the verge of crying himself breathless, the person on the bed remained motionless, making Ah Jiu’s heart sink.
However, at that moment, Wufu’s eyelids fluttered.
Ah Jiu noticed and his sinking heart suddenly lifted. He pulled back the blanket, placed his son beside Wufu, and held her hand around him.
With mother and son connected, sensing his mother’s presence, Little Bun’s cries softened but remained aggrieved.
It’s often said that a child is their mother’s life, and that couldn’t be truer; Wufu’s hand trembled a bit.
"Wufu, Wufu, open your eyes and look at me," Ah Jiu called softly.
The child’s cries caused heartache.
The lover’s call caused a pang of sorrow.
Someone turned away, covering their mouth to sob silently.
Wufu’s eyelids quivered, her eyelashes gently fluttering. Bai Xiaobai saw it, stepped forward, placed his hand on Wufu’s wrist, and said, "The pulse is strong. Keep calling."
Ah Jiu continued to call, again and again.
Wufu opened her eyes, parted her lips, and after a moment, hoarsely squeezed out one word: "Noisy."
Tears suddenly streamed down Ah Jiu’s face: "You finally woke up."
Bai Xiaobai let out a breath, saying to Jadeite, "Go brew the medicine."
As long as she’s awake, all will be well.
Jadeite both cried and laughed, wiped her eyes, and hobbled outside.
Wufu forcefully turned her head, seeing Ah Jiu’s haggard face, then looking at the child beside her, crying with extreme grievance, she sighed deeply.
"Child... crying." Wufu was very tired.
Ah Jiu picked up Little Bun, turning his face to her, saying, "You slept too long, look at him, he’s fine."
Wufu looked at her son, his little face had fully developed; white and rosy, very delicate, obviously well cared for, she couldn’t help but slightly curve her lips.
