CHAPTER 568: CHAPTER 550: RETURNING TO THE HOMETOWN OVERNIGHT (CAUSING TROUBLE, EXTRA UPDATE) _3

"Mom, I’m going to buy a ticket. Please help me pack a few clothes first." Lin Wan shouted these words without turning her head; she was already riding her bike far away.

Liang Hongmei was full of doubts and worries and finally helplessly embraced Little Star to help Lin Wan pack her clothes.

Lin Wan took only twenty minutes to buy the ticket and hurriedly dialed the number she had called earlier to inform them of her timing.

Lin Wan bought a ticket for 8 o’clock tonight, went home to change into clean clothes, packed a thousand yuan, kissed Little Star’s cheek, picked up the clothes her mom had prepared for her, and went out the door.

"Mom, talk to Su Lingpei Bai about these clothes at home and let them keep an eye on them. I’m estimating that I’ll be gone for at least a month this time."

"Don’t worry about things at home, be careful on the road. Don’t rush. Since you got a call, it means everything is fine. Remember to call home once you get there, okay."

"Got it mom, I’m off now."

Liang Hongmei looked at her watch, "Why is your brother coming back so late today? How about waiting for him and let him take you."

"Mom, I can do it myself. My brother is probably on the way now, I’ll head off first."

"Oh, you child, be careful on the road."

"I got it mom," Lin Wan didn’t ride her bike this time; instead, she ran to the roadside and took the tram.

When Lin Wan got on the tram, outside the station, Lin Yinghui returned home and knew about it, worriedly rode his bike there. But he was still a step late. Lin Wan was now on the tram, completely forgetting everything Mei Lang Jun had told her, her mind filled only with the image of Han Yi injured and lying in a pool of blood, shocking.

In the years since they got married, every mission Han Yi undertook ended with him returning safely. Considering Han Yi’s later achievements, she thought it was all smooth sailing. Unexpectedly, Han Yi experienced such an ordeal.

In her unawareness, she didn’t realize how much heartache and hardship had happened.

Lin Wan embarked on the journey with a heart full of anxiety.

....

Like her, Lin Guozhi was also filled with anxiety as he made his way to Kao Shan Village. At this moment, Lin Guozhi was already on a military vehicle, accompanied by two guards, rushing overnight.

Twenty years, a full twenty years. His Nannan, his children. How is their life now? Have things changed completely or are they still waiting bitterly? No matter the situation, he must go back and provide Nannan with an explanation.

There’s no need to think much; he knows that Nannan and her parents-in-law must resent him.

Having left for twenty years, the villagers would probably think of him as the same kind of person as Wu Guodong back then.

He recalls when he left, Qiu Hualan seemed to have remarried to someone else.

If... If his Nannan already had another family, he wouldn’t blame her. After all, it was his fault. He has no right to blame her.

Before leaving, his mother advised not to go but to send someone to inquire instead, reasoning that after so many years, no woman would foolishly wait for a person whose life and death are unknown. She likely remarried and moved on with the children.

Mom suggested if she really remarried, they should negotiate to bring the son and daughter back since the woman must have other children after getting married.

Lin Guozhi’s mood at this time was complicated, indescribable by words!

....

Lin Wan sat on the train for a night and two days. Exhausted from the journey, she arrived in Shanghai at around 9 a.m.

She was picked up by a guard.

"Comrade, how is my Han Yi now? Where is he injured, is it serious?" Lin Wan asked several questions urgently once she got into the car.

The guard furrowed his brows and scratched his short hair, saying, "He was injured in the thigh, right at the main artery. Excessive blood loss... It’s been two days since the surgery, but he hasn’t woken up yet."

"Still hasn’t woken up?"

The guard smiled awkwardly and replied, "He was in surgery for four hours straight due to excessive blood loss. During the rescue, his heart even stopped momentarily... Although he was saved under constraint, the later condition, the doctor said can’t be guaranteed."

This means he hasn’t passed the critical period.

"Can’t guarantee what?" Lin Wan immediately pursued.

The guard sighed, "It’s uncertain when he’ll wake up. If we are lucky, perhaps he’ll wake up in a few hours, which means he’s basically past the critical period. He’s been in a coma for two days now with no signs of waking. If we aren’t lucky, it’s uncertain when he’ll wake up, possibly... never waking up in his lifetime..." The guard feared he sounded too frightening and quickly explained, "The doctor first mentioned the worst possible outcome; things may not be that bad. Later, the doctor also said the patient might wake up soon. We should take good care of him, and contact me if there’s any new development."

Lin Wan subconsciously nodded, "He will wake up."

Han Yi will surely wake up; he promised he would never leave her and their daughter in this life.
