Chapter 253: Give Me Your Dad’s Phone

The experts on the side couldn’t help but shake their heads and sigh.

They thought the little girl was pretty and lively, but just too mischievous.

To get her parents’ attention, she could even fabricate such tall tales.

But can something like this be joked about?

The gentleman inside just turned into a vegetative state yesterday. Not to mention, there’s never been a case where a vegetative person wakes up after just one day—

If that were the case, it wouldn’t be called a vegetative state. It would simply be a coma!

Furthermore, the chances of the person inside waking up are slim. If he really woke up now, it’d only mean the doctors diagnosed him incorrectly!

But that’s even more impossible!

Over ten world-class authoritative doctors diagnosed him, and he is indeed a vegetative state without a doubt.

Any rational and intelligent person with a bit of analysis can tell that the little girl must be lying.

But after all, she’s not their own child, so the experts decided not to say much.

Soon, Song Qingwan and Grandpa pulled the experts aside to discuss further matters.

They just hoped that a way to treat Lu Qidong could be found soon, as quickly as possible.

After all, time waits for no one.

Lu Qidong is already 46 years old now, if things drag on for a few more years, even if he does wake up, he’ll be in his fifties or sixties.

Not much time left to live.

Moreover, they all hoped he could wake up soon.

Seeing that Auntie and Grandpa didn’t believe her.

The little girl pouted her cherry-red lips, her chubby and fair little face puffed, angrily putting her hands on her hips, feeling so wronged.

The next second, she went running towards a certain direction.

She tugged at the hand of her father, who was standing by the window smoking absent-mindedly.

Lu Junhan lowered his head slightly, gazed indifferently out the window, his face as handsome and cold as always, his thin lips tightly pursed, as if pondering something.

The windowsill beside him was piled with cigarette butts, indicating his slightly irritable mood at the moment.

"Daddy, daddy! Grandpa woke up, cough cough cough cough—"

As soon as she opened her mouth, a thick smoke wafted into her nose, causing the little girl to stick out her tongue and cough intensely.

She thought about casting a spell to shield against the smoke.

But as her fingers moved, nothing happened; instead, she ended up inhaling more smoke, coughing even harder!

Oh right.

She had given all her mana to Grandpa.

Now she’s just a useless fish.

Lu Junhan slightly furrowed his brow, squeezed the cigarette extinguished in his hand, and with a lift of his large hand, moved her to the smoke-free zone on the other side.

The man lowered his gaze slightly, looking down at her, "Why did you come out?"

The little girl, hearing his words, her eyes sparkled, grabbing onto his hand, said happily through her coughs:

"Daddy! Cough cough, Li Li is here to tell you... Grandpa, Grandpa woke up!"

Lu Junhan: "..."

...

In the hospital room.

Lu Qidong lay on the hospital bed, eyes open, quietly staring at the ceiling in a daze.

He thought that soon, he would fall asleep again, just like the several times before.

But unexpectedly, the treatment this time worked even better than he imagined.

It’s been ten minutes.

He has shown no signs of falling asleep, on the contrary, he felt more and more alive.

If it wasn’t for having lain there for so long, rendering his body weak, he’d have wanted to get up and walk around.

Just then, the door to the room was pushed open—

The scenario of a group of people rushing in with tears of joy didn’t happen.

Surprisingly, the one who came in was just the little girl in camo clothing, with two piggy tails.

The little girl stood at the door, her fair little hand holding her head, her chubby face pitifully sad, and as soon as she entered, she began whining:

"Grandpa! Auntie and Grandpa didn’t believe me, I told Daddy, he said I was dreaming! I said no, then he—he couldn’t win the argument, he hit me! He’s so bad! My head hurts so much from his hit!"

Lu Qidong was unexpected, a slight surprise in his expression.

At this time, Lu Qidong had no idea he was considered to be someone who would never wake up.

He thought he was just experiencing normal post-surgery coma.

Given it’s just surgical coma, wouldn’t waking up be quite normal?

But seeing the little girl’s hopeful yet pitiful appearance, he softly comforted:

"...It’s okay, it’s okay, come here, grandpa will rub it for you, rub it and it won’t hurt anymore."

The little girl’s big, moist black eyes gleamed happily and nodded heavily.

Then she let go of her hands holding her head, and directly ran over.

She obediently leaned her head with two pig tails over, letting Lu Qidong rub her.

Lu Qidong gently ran his large hands over the little girl’s head, and she started purring contentedly, like a tiny kitten.

Then, she blinked her big black eyes, troublingly asked:

"So Grandpa, what should we do now?"

Lu Qidong, coincidentally bored, enjoying playing with her, thought for a bit and said:

"I have an idea, you go get your dad’s phone for me, I’ll call your auntie, once she hears my voice, she’ll know I’m awake."

The little girl’s eyes suddenly lit up, she exclaimed "Wow," "Grandpa, you’re so smart! Smarter than Li Li!"

"Grandpa isn’t smart," Lu Qidong continued to rub her little head, smiling tenderly, "Li Li is the smartest."

The little girl’s fair chubby face instantly flushed, thinking grandpa was too nice.

No one had ever complimented her like that before.

Auntie had complimented her before, but it wasn’t as nice as Grandpa’s words. Grandpa’s praise felt genuinely admiring of her intelligence!

So, the little girl felt utterly happy, rushed out quickly, waving her little hand:

"Grandpa, wait for me, I’ll be back soon."

The little girl ran a few steps but hadn’t reached the door when she seemed to recall something, turned around and fetched a chair, extending her small hands towards the bottled water on the table.

She’s already used her mana, and her luck is gone too.

She needs to drink more water.

Otherwise, if she runs carelessly, she might trip, and falling hurts!

The hospital room was quite empty, mostly filled with medical equipment, devoid of any fruits, thermoses, or other household supplies.

Even if there were, Lu Qidong wouldn’t have needed them.

And the bottled water was probably prepared by Grandpa, knowing they were visiting, with a production date just a few days prior.

The little girl’s hands tried twisting the cap as she used to do effortlessly, but now she couldn’t turn it no matter how hard she tried. Finally, she held the mineral water bottle, sat on the ground, directly opened her mouth and tried biting it.

No good.

Seeing water, she wanted to drink it so badly.

Waa waa, why couldn’t she drink?

This must be bad water!

Seeing this, Lu Qidong offered to try.

Unfortunately, he didn’t have much strength in his hands either.

In the end, he apologetically gave the bottle back to the little girl.

"Daddy! Li Li wants to drink water! Water!! Water!!!"

A minute later.

The adults in the hallway saw a little girl clutching a bottle of mineral water.

The small figure ran determinedly out of the hospital room.

Goodness.

At first glance, people might think she was carrying a bomb.
