Quadruplets’ Charm: The Tycoon’s Hidden Heirs -
Chapter 429 - 428: A Few Days Later
Chapter 429: Chapter 428: A Few Days Later
"Why hasn’t she woken up yet? You’re all useless!" Ye Sihan growled, his dark pupils flushing red.
The doctors and experts in the dean’s office, although seated, felt as though standing might be preferable.
It was as if their chairs were lined with needles, utterly impossible to sit on comfortably.
Their backs were drenched in sweat under the immense pressure.
Mrs. Ye had been in a coma for three days now, with no signs of waking whatsoever.
Yet all her bodily indicators were normal.
Two of the doctors seemed to think of something at the same time, exchanged glances, and looked up at Ye Sihan.
"Speak!" Ye Sihan had no patience left, his irritation making him appear incredibly ferocious.
"Mrs. Ye and the former comatose Mr. Ye... are very similar," one doctor said cautiously.
Ye Sihan’s body visibly stiffened, including the lines of his face, taut and sharp-edged.
"Has Mrs. Ye suffered any trauma before, especially to the brain?" the doctor asked again.
Ye Sihan’s dark pupils trembled, but he remained silent.
Tang Yu had never sustained a head injury, only a dive into the sea.
Could it be that she hit her head after jumping into the sea?
Ye Sihan felt a chill enveloping his body, as if he was submerged in the freezing waters of the wintry sea.
He was cold, and the temperature in the office was even colder, like a cellar of ice.
Pushing open the hospital room door, Ye Sihan walked in.
He stood beside the hospital bed.
Xing Ling lay there, her complexion pale.
He liked her better when her cheeks were rosy.
Ye Sihan sat on the edge of the bed, grasped her soft, boneless hand, "Aling, wake up quickly, no more acting, I’ll take you to travel the world."
Xing Ling gave him no response.
Ye Sihan bent down, kissed her lips tenderly, "You won’t leave me, you’ve said so, that we’d be together for a lifetime, and the next, and the next..."
During the entirety of Xing Ling’s coma, Ye Sihan never left her side.
When Xing Yanjie arrived, he was just as baffled and then asked the question that Ye Sihan had been unwilling to face, "She’s not trying to recover her memory, is she?"
Ye Sihan was silent, engulfed in unease.
Seeing him like that, Xing Yanjie quickly reassured, "It might not be the case; I’m just speculating. But you should be prepared."
"We’re already married," Ye Sihan said in a hoarse voice.
What he meant was, being married meant no divorce.
At least he would not agree to a divorce.
If Xing Ling truly regained her memory, they could have a grand and romantic wedding without any omissions.
The quadruplets would be their flower children.
Tang Yu would agree...
The quadruplets hadn’t seen their parents every day, asking Uncle Wen, who told them their parents had gone on a trip.
But the quadruplets of today were not the same as they had been before.
Even if it was a trip, their parents would have told them!
At night, pretending to sleep and taking advantage of Uncle Wen’s and the maid’s inattentiveness, Junjun sneaked downstairs to the kitchen.
Uncle Wen was instructing the chef on what to prepare for breakfast the next day, to make dishes that would appeal to Mr. Ye’s palate.
These days, he could tell that Mr. Ye had lost weight.
It was a testament to how excruciating Mrs. Ye’s coma was for him.
"Is Mrs. Ye in very bad shape?" the chef asked with concern.
"Her physical condition is quite normal, she’s just been continuously comatose," Uncle Wen sighed.
Junjun, who had been eavesdropping in hiding, was frightened and sat down abruptly on the floor.
Uncle Wen, hearing the noise, stepped out.
When he saw Junjun sitting on the ground, he was shocked and quickly pulled him up, "My young master, what are you doing here? Weren’t you sleeping?"
"Mom... What happened to mom?" Junjun’s eyes welled with tears.
Uncle Wen knew then that their conversation had been overheard.
"Nothing serious, she just inhaled some water and is sleeping..."
Zhengzheng, who had followed, asked, "Sleeping? Where’s mom?"
Haohao, "Are you keeping something from us?"
"Mom..." Xibao’s face turned pale.
Apart from Junjun, who heard Uncle Wen’s words, the other three had not.
So they were even more frightened.
"No, no, mom is just in a coma, there’s no danger to her life, don’t worry!" Uncle Wen cursed himself for being careless, for letting the children hear.
Mr. Ye would certainly blame him!
"I’m going to find Mom now!" Junjun was very angry.
Once the children were angry, it wasn’t something that the servants like Uncle Wen could control!
Uncle Wen had no choice but to call Mr. Ye.
After getting through, Ye Sihan let the quadruplets take the call.
He agreed on the phone that they could go to the hospital tomorrow, and only then did they quiet down.
The quadruplets each woke up differently.
Especially Xibao, who got dressed every morning with her eyes closed, almost dragged off the bed.
The next morning, the quadruplets got up without waiting for Uncle Wen to call them.
Uncle Wen looked on with emotion; to the children, their parents were the most important, most beloved people in the world.
Even closer than their mother.
The quadruplets entered the ward, saw their dad, and also saw their mom.
But mom was lying in the bed asleep, not paying them any attention.
"Mom?"
"Mom!"
"Mom!"
"Mom..." The quadruplets, two on the left and two on the right, lay at the edge of the bed.
Calling for their mom non-stop.
Ye Sihan was paying attention to Xing Ling’s response, of which there was none.
He was hoping that Xing Ling would hear the call of the children and wake up.
"Mom." Junjun clutched his mother’s hand, his eyes red.
Zhengzheng walked up to his dad, "When will Mom wake up?"
"In a few days," Ye Sihan wasn’t even sure himself.
"How many days is a few days?" Haohao asked.
Xibao was also looking at him.
"Mom is not in any danger to her life, it’s just due to drowning she might be in a coma for a while, and this time is uncertain. But Mom will definitely wake up, let’s all wait patiently together," Ye Sihan said.
"Really?" Zhengzheng asked.
"When have I ever lied to you?" Ye Sihan ruffled Zhengzheng’s hair, "With dad here, what’s there to worry about?"
The quadruplets all lay together at the edge of the bed again, staring at their mom.
Seeming as though they really planned to wait like that for mom to wake up.
But Ye Sihan didn’t let them stay there all the time; after having lunch together, he asked the driver to take them to school.
The quadruplets didn’t want to go; they wanted to stay with their mom.
But dad said that mom liked them to be obedient, and as long as they were, Mom would wake up very soon.
So they all went to school.
As soon as school was out, they hurried to the hospital, gathered around mom’s bed, and talked to mom about what happened at school that day.
Their childish voices were almost always present in the ward.
After having dinner together and it reached seven o’clock, he let the driver take them back to the Ye Mansion.
Every day was like this.
The father and sons waited every day for Xing Ling’s awakening.
Each time was a disappointment.
On Sunday the quadruplets did not need to go to school, so they stayed in the ward with mom.
The mobile phone on the table vibrated; Ye Sihan, who was wiping Xing Ling’s hands, was so focused that he seemed not to hear it.
Xibao turned to pick up the mobile phone.
Since the table was rather high, she tried to climb on a chair.
Instead of getting on the chair, she fell off with a smack.
Xibao was first stunned, then began to cry with grievance.
Actually, such a small fall wouldn’t bother her normally.
But with mom always sleeping and not paying attention to her, the sadness that had built up in her heart suddenly burst out—
"Mom! Mom!"
Her three brothers rushed over anxiously to pull her up.
Just as Ye Sihan was about to get up, his body suddenly shook violently.
He looked down in a daze at the hand in his palm.
Those delicate white fingers moved again, a very slight movement, but it set off an earthquake in Ye Sihan’s heart.
Xibao was still crying there, wailing even after being pulled up by her brothers.
Ye Sihan looked towards Xibao, then back at Xing Ling, was this a response?
