Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

The moment he heard Xiaoyou's voice, Shanlai was stunned. He tried to put down the bowl tremblingly but forgot that there was no cabinet here. Fortunately, Kassell took it quickly, otherwise it would have spilled on the bed.

She struggled to sit up, her hands dancing erratically in the air, her movements looked funny and funny.

But at this time, no one in the ward laughed at her.

"Slow down, you just woke up yesterday, don't be so excited." After putting down the bowl, Kassell quickly pressed her down on the bed to prevent her from getting up. His tone was doting yet a little helpless.

Lei walked to her bedside and tremblingly called out, "Shanlai."

Her hands suddenly stopped moving and she sat stiffly on the bed, not knowing what to say to him.

She had figured it out yesterday, but the moment she actually heard his voice, it was as if all her strength was suddenly drained away. She could want to give up on him when he was not around, but it was a different story when he was standing in front of her alive.

He had just said one word and she was completely defeated.

"Yeah." She just responded lightly.

There was no surprise as imagined, nor was there any questioning as imagined after knowing he was coming. Lei just stopped where he was.

"Kassell, I'm hungry." She rubbed her stomach and asked for food.

"Okay, okay, wait a moment. I'll ask the chef at home to prepare whatever you want to eat." Kassell patted her on the back to calm her down.

"I just heard Xiaoyou's voice. Where is she?" Shanlai asked doubtfully. Did she hear it right?

Nadel suddenly rushed over and hugged her, choking and cursing: "You bastard, do you know how worried I was this year? I was afraid you would never wake up in this life. Do you know how hard it was for me to take care of you?"

"Do you know that I run back and forth between school and the hospital every day? You asked a poor student like me to come to the hospital early to take care of you, and I didn't dare to skip a single class, just because I was afraid that I would fail the exam."

"Ah, wuwuwu, ..." She cried with tears and snot, and wiped her snot on Shanlai's hospital gown.

"In order to make you wake up earlier, I, an atheist, pray to the Buddha and God every day. I said that if you don't wake up, I will not eat meat for a day..."

"Ahhh, sob, sob..." Nadel became sadder and sadder as he spoke, crying as if he couldn't catch his breath.

"I haven't eaten meat for a year. I don't even know what meat tastes like. You have to compensate me, wuwuwu..."

Shanlai was strangled by her and couldn't breathe. "Ahem, ahem, if you have something to say, just say it nicely. What are you doing? If you have something to say, just say it. What do you mean by trying to strangle me to death?" As she said that, she reached out to pat Nadel's back.

Nadel was crying and letting her go immediately after hearing what she said, "I don't care, you have to compensate me."

Xiaoyou hugged Shanlai gently, tears dripping down her back, "Shanlai, you finally woke up, woo woo..."

Hearing Xiaoyou's crying, she suddenly felt so sad. It turned out that so many people were worried about her when she was unconscious.

When Xiaoyou let go of her after crying enough, she felt another person standing next to her, "Shanlai, I'm glad you're awake." He bent down and hugged her gently.

Shanlai's brain froze, it seemed like Daomingsi's voice.

"I'm glad you're awake." It was Ximen, and he also hugged Shanlai.

Mei Zuo didn't say much, but just walked over and hugged her silently, "You finally woke up, you slept for a really long time."

No one spoke after that.

"Let's go out first." Kassell, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

Then there was a rustling sound of footsteps, and the other people in the ward went out first, leaving only Shanlai and Lei.

She didn't say anything, her hands groping for the cup. A big hand took the cup next to her and handed it to her. "Thank you." Her tone was polite yet distant.

Lei's heart trembled, "Shanlai, I can explain what happened a year ago."

Shanlai's hand holding the cup trembled, and the water almost spilled out of the cup, "Yeah. I already know, Kassell has told me." His tone was still light without any ups and downs.

"Well, why don't we just forget it." Shan Lai pinched the handle of the cup nervously, her heart bleeding as she said this.

How much she loved before, how sad she is now.

Lei didn't say anything, but sat down silently beside her bed. His eyes were terribly red, but she couldn't see them now.

"Do you know what you're saying?" His voice trembled.

Stroking the cup with her fingertips, she pretended to be calm and said, "I know, I am sober now, I just can't see, but my brain is not damaged."

"I say, let's just forget it."

"It's good for you and for me."

"Senior Jing is a good match for you, and you grew up together, so go pursue her."

"You also know that I am blind and can't see. To put it bluntly, I am a useless person. I can't help you." Shan Lai said calmly.

"Why do you say that?" Lei reached out his hand to touch her with trembling hands, but dropped his hand the moment it was about to touch her face.

Yes, he hurt her and made her see a scene that shouldn't have happened. How sad and upset she must be.

Shanlai remained silent and just kept drinking the water in the cup.

Since the doctor said that she was only temporarily blind and would be fine after a while, she might as well tell Lei that she was blind. Maybe then he would give up.

He is the heir of the family, and family is the most important thing in everything. Would she, a blind man, marry him as a decoration?

"Deng He Shanlai, listen to me carefully. Even if you are blind, I will still love you even if you lie in bed and can't wake up for the rest of your life or your legs are broken."

"I love you because you are just you. You are not a substitute for anyone. You are just you."

"Don't give me any nonsense."

"Don't think you can get rid of me by saying that. What happened a year ago was my fault. I will spend my whole life making it up to you."

"I, Hanazawa Rui, only love you in this life, even in life and death."

"I will accompany you to slowly heal your eyes. It's okay if they can't be cured. Just let me be your eyes."

Shan Lai listened to him and smiled bitterly. Suddenly, she was a little afraid of such a person. What on earth had he experienced in the past year?

The hand holding the cup of water was a little unsteady, and the water still spilled onto the bed sheets. Lei took the cup from her with a helpless sigh, "Why are you still so stupid?"

She didn't answer.

Slowly, there seemed to be no movement, and neither of them spoke. There was only the sound of wind blowing the curtains.

"Shanlai, please don't abandon me, I beg you." His voice was trembling uncontrollably, as if he would cry in the next second.
