As soon as this idea came to mind, Nian Nian rejected it.
Because he was used to disappointment, many times he simply gave up hope from the beginning.
However, after thinking so much, the sleepiness had disappeared, and he simply opened his eyes——
Many years later, Nian Nian remembered this moment clearly. If someone asked him if he had seen a miracle, he might not say, but he would definitely think of this moment——
He opened his eyes drowsily and saw the thin morning light, and his mother looking at him through the morning light.
In an instant, many things passed through Niannian's mind. His little body froze, as if he was afraid of destroying some beautiful illusion. He did not dare to move. Only the simplest cognition remained in his mind -
Mom is awake - mom is looking at me.
After waiting for so long, his mother finally woke up.
Seeing the little guy's cautious look, Xu Youning's heart stung and tears burst into his eyes.
Niannian finally reacted and called out uncertainly: "...Mom?"
"Nian Nian," Xu Youning said in a choked voice with the desire to be close to the little one, "hug mom."
If it were anyone else, Nian Nian would have rushed over and hugged her, but this was all too unreal, and he couldn't believe it was true.
He dreamed many times that his mother woke up and she finally held him.
How happy he was in the dream, but how disappointed he was when he woke up.
In order not to be disappointed again, he had to confirm one thing first -
"Mom, am I dreaming?"
Nian Nian was extremely careful, not even daring to breathe hard.
Xu Youning's heart hurt as if it had been corroded by strong acid. She endured the pain and said, "It's not a dream. Nian Nian, I am really my mother."
So, everything is true.
Niannian finally dared to move. She looked at Xu Youning without blinking an eye, crawled from the nursing bed to Xu Youning's bed, reached out and touched Xu Youning's face: "Mom, are you really awake?"
Only his eyes could move flexibly and freely. Xu Youning blinked at the little guy: "Really."
Tears welled up in Nian Nian's eyes, and he raised the back of his hand to wipe them away. He squeezed out a smile and introduced himself to Xu Youning with sobs: "Mom, I am Nian Nian."
They have the closest blood relationship, but they need to introduce themselves to each other.
Xu Youning was so sad that he could no longer hold back his tears and burst out.
She wanted to give the little guy a hug that was four years late, but her limbs had no strength at all, so she could only say: "I know, I know you are Nian Nian."
How could she not know?
In her deep sleep, she had heard his voice too many times, felt his careful touches and his gentle breathing too many times.
The first time she opened her eyes and saw him, she knew that he was Nian Nian, her and Musijue's child.
Xu Youning's words were like a tear bomb, and Niannian's tears burst instantly. Without waiting for Xu Youning to comfort him, he smiled and said to himself:
"Mom, don't worry, I'm just too happy."
After the last note fell, Nian Nian leaned down and hugged Xu Youning gently.
"Mom, Dad and I have been waiting for you for a long time..."
Niannian shook her head, with a simple and considerate look, like an angel who suddenly came to the world: "Mom, don't apologize, dad and I don't blame you."
Xu Youning smiled, his tears gradually stopped, and he couldn't bear to look away from Nian Nian's face for a second.
Niannian is more well-behaved and sensible than she imagined. Mu Sijue taught him well.
But, having said that, where is Mu Sijue? He couldn't leave Niannian alone in the hospital.
"Niannian, where is dad?"
The moment the last note fell, Xu Youning finally realized how much she missed Mu Sijue.
In these years, she could only hear Musijue's voice and feel the warmth of his hands.
She didn't know how he was. She didn't know if he was smiling or frowning; she didn't know how his day was, and whether he encountered anything disturbing.
She missed his face, his arms and warmth, and everything about him.
She wanted to see him now and feel everything about him again.
But where has he gone?
When Xu Youning asked this question, Nian Nian remembered Mu Sijue. She turned around and saw that there was no one on the escort bed.
Huh? Where is his father?
"Dad may have gone out." Niannian said, "We agreed to stay in the hospital together to accompany you. Dad must be in the hospital!"
Xu Youning could only suppress the longing in his heart, motioned for Nian Nian to come over, and said: "Hug mom again."
Nian Nian got into bed, lay down next to Xu Youning, stretched out her hand to hug Xu Youning gently, and said, "Mom, I'm very happy. But Uncle Song said we can't touch you too hard."
The little guy wanted to tell her that he was very happy and wanted to hug her hard, but he couldn't do it now.
Xu Youning felt warm in her heart, and tears were about to burst out of her eyes again, but at this moment she found that her hands had strength.
She was overjoyed, raised her hand with difficulty, and touched Niannian's head: "Mom is also very happy."
Nian Nian looked at Xu Youning, her eyes sparkling as if they were carrying the joy of the whole world.
Xu Youning took a closer look and finally discovered that the little guy's eyes looked very much like hers.
Well, fortunately, the little guy still resembles her in one way.
"Mom," Nian Nian looked at Xu Youning expectantly, "Dad and I often come to see you, do you feel it?"
"Of course." Xu Youning smiled, "Sometimes I can still hear you talking to me."
Nian Nian raised a smile like a little angel, leaned over and kissed Xu Youning's cheek: "Mom, I haven't told you: I love you."
Xu Youning felt as if he accidentally slipped into a hot spring and felt warm all over.
It’s confirmed! She gave birth to a warm little boy, the kind who can warm people from head to toe.
Tears quietly moistened his eyes, but the corners of his lips were rising.
Xu Youning's hand stayed on Niannian's face, looked at the little guy and said, "Mom loves you too."
Nian Nian grabbed Xu Youning's pale and slender hand and felt her mother's warmth with nostalgia.
Xu Youning wanted to know how old Niannian was, but was worried that this question would hurt the little one, so he asked instead: "Niannian, how long has mom been sleeping?"
The adults had long told Niannian that her mother had fallen into a deep sleep since the day he was born.
He stretched out four fingers, moved them cutely twice, and said, "Mom, I'm four years old."
Xu Youning's mind went blank for a moment.
It turns out it has been four years.
She was in coma for four years and missed the little one's four years of growth.
Tears filled her eyes and she asked hoarsely: "Niannian, has your father been taking care of you these past four years?"
Niannian thought for a while, shook her head and said, "There are also Grandma Zhou, Aunt Jian An, Aunt Xiao Xi and Uncle Shen!"
Listening to these familiar names, Xu Youning felt as if he was in another world.
"...How are your uncles and aunts who help take care of you? Do Uncle Koshikawa and Sister Yunyun have children?"
"They are very good! But Uncle Yuechuan and Sister Yunyun..." Niannian remembered Xiao Yunyun's previous words and told Xu Youning truthfully, "Sister Yunyun said that she is still a sister. She will not have children until she becomes an 'aunt'
.”
Xu Youning smiled and was not surprised.
This explanation is indeed Xiao Yunyun's style.
"ah!!"
Nian Nian didn't know what she was thinking of, and she exclaimed without warning.
Xu Youning also became nervous and asked: "What's wrong?"
Nian Nian's childish face showed an adult-like seriousness: "Uncle Song said that you should tell him as soon as you wake up!"
Before Xu Youning could react, the little guy had already rolled out of bed and was about to run out.
After running for a few steps, the little guy stopped suddenly and turned back to look at Xu Youning.
Xu Youning met the little guy's eyes and his heart was stabbed hard.
The little guy's pretty eyes flashed with uneasiness that shouldn't exist at his age.
He was afraid that if he left, she would fall asleep again.
He was afraid that when he came back, his dream would be shattered and everything would be back to the way it was before.
Xu Youning smiled and reassured the little guy: "Mom will wait for you to come back."
"..." Nian Nian warned, "Mom, you must wait for me."
Xu Youning couldn't nod yet, so she could only close her eyes, saying that she would definitely do it.
Niannian ran back and kissed Xu Youning before running out with peace of mind.
The bodyguards were changing guard. When they saw Nian Nian running out, someone grabbed Nian Nian quickly and looked at the little guy in disbelief: "Are you awake?"
"Well!" Niannian asked impatiently, "Uncle, where is my father?"
Before the bodyguard could answer, Song Jiqing's voice came over: "Nian Nian, what's wrong?"
"Uncle Ji Qing!" Niannian broke away from the bodyguard and ran over to grab Song Jiqing, "Go and see my mother!"
Song Jiqing felt nervous and blurted out: "What's wrong with your mother?"
Nian Nian didn't say anything and just pulled Song Jiqing into the room.
The moment he saw Xu Youning, Song Jiqing's high-pitched heart suddenly fell to the ground, and every cell in his body felt soothed and relaxed.
He realized that his heart had been hanging for four years, and now he could finally settle down.
The best feeling in the world is peace of mind.
Niannian pulled Song Jiqing's hand: "Uncle Ji Qing?"
Song Jiqing came to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream - ever since he found out that Xu Youning was awake, he had been frozen in place and forgotten to move.
Xu Youning smiled: "Ji Qing."
Song Jiqing walked to Xu Youning's bed step by step, with the corners of his lips rising as he walked, and said, "I'm just too happy."
"I..." Xu Youning said worriedly, "I can't seem to move."
"Don't worry." Song Jiqing signaled to Xu Youning not to be afraid and comforted her, "As long as you wake up, it means you are fine. All body functions will slowly recover. I will arrange a comprehensive examination for you in a moment. The results
Once you get out, we'll know when you can make a full recovery."
"Okay." Xu Youning paused and then asked, "Where is Si Jue?"
"I met him when I came to the hospital." Song Jiqing pinched Nian Nian's face, "He went out to buy breakfast for Nian Nian and should be back soon."
Xu Youning couldn't wait for Mu Sijue to come back and asked, "Has he been very hard in the past four years?"
