Chapter 216: Chapter 216: The Bracelet of Great Significance

After they finished speaking, Bai Wei exclaimed excitedly and jumped three feet in the air, "Great, I have a male cousin, and now I have a female cousin too, and the two of them are a couple."

That didn’t sound quite right to anyone who heard it, and Bai Qian’s frown only deepened, "Xiaowei, do you know how to speak? They are not blood-related."

"Okay, okay, I know," Bai Wei said, shaking her head with a clearly upbeat mood, "But one day they will get married, so tell me, am I from the bride’s family or the groom’s family?"

"Of course, you’re from the groom’s family," Fu Xingbo laughed, showing his teeth, "Fu Han is your sister, your biological sister, you know?"

Bai Qian laughed aloud but couldn’t help joining in, "He Xing is also your brother, but, if those two argue, just remember to side with Fu Han."

"You didn’t need to say it," Bai Wei boasted with a proud smile, "Even if Fu Han weren’t my sister, I’d always support her."

Su Cheng listened on the side as Bai Wei’s family looked forward to their happy future, but he felt an overwhelming bitterness in his heart; just thinking about being nothing more than ordinary friends with Fu Han in the future made his heart ache so much that even breathing was painful, not to mention everything else.

Fu Han was still unconscious. It had been almost two hours since she had been brought out of the Operating Room, and the Doctor said that if Fu Han didn’t wake up within three hours, they should go find a Doctor.

Nan Qing had left nearly half an hour ago, Su Cheng didn’t know what she and her mother were discussing and started to worry.

Just as he was hesitating whether to message Nan Qing, she returned, approaching Su Cheng with a calm expression, as if nothing had happened.

But it was Su Cheng who couldn’t keep calm and couldn’t resist asking, "Nan Qing... Sister, what did you say to my mother?"

"Nothing much," Nan Qing swung her arm, showing off a bracelet that was entirely emerald green and clearly expensive.

That wasn’t the key point, the key was that Su Cheng recognized the bracelet; its familiarity took him by surprise as he pointed at it and said, "That’s what my mother received from my grandmother when she married into the Huangpu Family, she said it was... meant for..."

Su Cheng couldn’t bring himself to finish the sentence, but he believed that even if he couldn’t say it, Nan Qing would understand the implication.

Indeed, the color drained from Nan Qing’s face as she struggled to take off the bracelet while saying anxiously, "You’re misunderstanding, I didn’t mean that, I’ll give the bracelet back to you right now."

In the past, the lady of the Huangpu Family often gave various gifts to Nan Qing, including the bracelet today without a word, and Nan Qing hadn’t thought too much of it, but now she had to think it over.

However, the bracelet, which was easy to put on, proved difficult to remove, and despite her great efforts, the bracelet remained securely on her wrist as she nearly broke it trying to get it off.

Su Cheng remembered his mother mentioning that the bracelet seemed ordinary, but once worn, it couldn’t be taken off for ten or twenty years.

Su Cheng had always thought his mother was exaggerating, but now he felt she might have been telling the truth; how else could he explain seeing her unable to take off the bracelet before, while now it was on Nan Qing’s wrist?

He stopped Nan Qing’s attempts, trying to speak as calmly as possible, "Don’t overthink it, it’s just an ordinary bracelet, not very valuable; you look good wearing it."

Nan Qing stared at Su Cheng blankly. His eyes shimmered, and his face turned a slight red. She felt a stir in her heart and, without saying anything, didn’t attempt to forcefully remove the bracelet anymore.

Their eyes inadvertently met, and both their faces flushed; they hastily looked away, too embarrassed to meet the other’s gaze again.

Only Luo Qinghe, from his vantage point where he sat, saw everything that happened between them clearly.

His expression grew complex as he inwardly sighed deeply, thinking that taking a step back could lead to a broader view of the world, a different life journey, like his own.

But sometimes perseverance could also reveal a new landscape, like Bai Wei’s.

Luo Qinghe felt very happy with his life now, hoping Su Cheng could find the same broad horizons by taking a step back and hoping Nan Qing could, like Bai Wei, persist a little longer, just a little longer.

But everyone’s life choices are different, and no one has the right to demand others solve their problems the same way they do.

Fu Han woke up just as everyone was lost in their thoughts, unnoticed as she opened her eyes, which gave her a chance to look around calmly; her first instinct was to look for He Xing, but the person who had said he would always stay with her wasn’t there.

She distinctly felt a piercing pain in her heart, like being pricked with needles, and though she was still very sleepy and wanted to close her eyes and sleep some more.

But Su Cheng’s eyes caught hers precisely, black and white distinct, and he immediately shouted ecstatically, "Fu Han is awake, Fu Han is awake."

In less than five seconds, the whole room gathered around her Ward bed, and she felt like a gorilla at the zoo under everyone’s gaze, making "gorilla" Fu Han quite uncomfortable.

She forced a smile, "Thank you for your concern, I’m fine."

Before Su Cheng could say anything, Bai Wei blurted out Fu Han’s identity in excitement, stumbling over her words several times.

Fu Han felt an unreal sensation, she had thought the paternity test was too melodramatic, straight from a fantastical tale, and now her feelings hadn’t changed, still believing Bai Wei’s words to be false.

Fu Xingbo unfolded the paternity test paper in front of her like a treasured item, the usually calm middle-aged man was as excited as a young man, "Fu Han, you really are my niece, it’s true."

If Fu Han hadn’t lost her memory, she probably would have been very happy, but now she didn’t feel excited, rather, she thought everything that had happened to her was bizarre enough, and a couple more incidents didn’t make much of a difference.

Under the excited and expectant gazes of everyone, Fu Han rigidly called out for "Uncle" and "Aunt," moving Fu Xingbo and Bai Qian to tearful gratitude while she awkwardly wished she could hide.

As the fervent atmosphere in the Ward finally eased, Fu Han, with a red face, asked the question she had wanted to ask since waking up, "Where did He Xing go?"

Although Su Cheng was jealous of He Xing, he feared Fu Han’s distress even more and quickly said, "He Xing was waiting outside the Operating Room for you all along. After your surgery was over, he got a phone call and had to leave for something important. Don’t worry, he’ll come back to see you as soon as he has dealt with his affairs."

"I..." Fu Han blushed, whispering softly, "I’m not... not worried."
