On Our Wedding Night, My Comatose Husband Kissed Me! - Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Faking Coma

Bai Ping was not satisfied with the old man’s arrangements and was about to say something when Fang Tong quietly tugged at the corners of her shirt while shaking her head. Bai Ping pursed her lips and changed the subject, “Fu Yan, Tong has been through quite a lot today and she had a fever last night. Since you are here, could you take a look at her, please?”

Fu Yan nodded and asked Fang Tong, “Have you taken any medicine?”.

Fang Tong nodded. “The medicine is in my room. Why don’t you follow me there and see if the medicine was appropriate or I should take something else?”

Fu Yan was stunned. Fang Tong kept signaling him with her eyes to go upstairs. He guessed that it had something to do with Gu Nancheng, so he went along and said, “Okay, I’ll go upstairs with you to take a look.”

“Mom, I’ll bring Mr. Fu upstairs first.”

Bai Ping nodded. “Go ahead.”

After entering the bedroom, Fang Tong carefully locked the door. Then, she pointed at Gu Nancheng who was lying in bed and said, “He woke up just now and injured Gu Ting, but then he passed out again. I don’t know what to do, and I was afraid that Mom and Grandpa would worry so I didn’t say anything. Dr. Fu, please take a look at him.”

Fu Yan frowned and strode to the side of the bed and examined Gu Nancheng carefully. He then looked at Fang Tong and asked, “Are you sure that he woke up just now? And he knocked Gu Ting out?”

Fang Tong nodded. “I’m sure.”

“Let’s not talk about whether Gu Nancheng would suddenly wake up after being in a coma for so long. Even if he did wake up, his limbs haven’t moved for so long. It would take at least a month for him to regain his mobility and strength. I don’t think he can knock Gu Ting out.”

“But he really woke up! I…”

“Don’t worry,” Fu Yan comforted Fang Tong. “Maybe it’s a spontaneous reaction, which is a good sign. At least it means that he’s responding to the outside world. I believe that he will wake up fully at some point in time.”

Fang Tong didn’t understand what was going on, but since Fu Yan had said it like that, she could only believe him.

“Is he alright now?”

“Everything is normal.”

Fang Tong heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good! I’m so worried that his condition would deteriorate further.”

“I feel that you are in worse condition than him.” Fu Yan pointed at Fang Tong’s pale face.

“I’m fine. I just need more rest.”

As she spoke, Fang Tong remembered that Fu Yan had been here for so long and wasn’t even offered a glass of water. She smiled and said, “I’ll go down and get you a glass of water. Please keep Gu Nancheng company!”

“Okay, thank you.”

After Fang Tong left the room, Fu Yan looked at Gu Nancheng and kicked him. “Stop pretending. She’s gone.”

The ”comatose” Gu Nancheng slowly opened his eyes and looked at his cousin who was standing by the bed. He smiled weakly. “Long time no see.”

“I don’t know what to say… You’re obviously awake, but you are still pretending to be unconscious. Don’t you know that Auntie has been worried about you all this time? And your new wife?”

Just now when Fu Yan examined Gu Nancheng, he secretly stretched out his finger from under the blanket and made a gesture that only the two of them understood. Fu Yan understood and knew that Gu Nancheng was already awake. Although he didn’t know why he was pretending to be asleep, he played along for him.

“Now is not the right time for me to wake up. As for my mother, let’s hide this from her for now. We’ll tell her when I’m stronger.”

“Are you trying to let Gu Ting’s people show their true colors before you wake up and then do a one-time clean out of these cancerous tumors from the company?”.

“Grandpa is old, and his heart has softened. The only way he would make up his mind is for him to see those lackeys panic!”
