Chapter 229 - 229: The Person on the Bed
Hai Tang had just gotten out of the car and taken two steps when she remembered Gu Yun’s existence. She turned around and asked,” Gu Yun, do you want to go with me?”
Gu Yun shook his head. He believed that since this was Hai Tang’s friend, it was her private matter. He did not want to interfere in too many of Hai Tang’s matters. He only needed to fulfill his responsibility as a husband and take good care of Hai Tang.
But for Hai Tang to take the initiative to ask him was enough to satisfy him.
It meant that Hai Tang still cared about him.
“I’m not going. I’ll wait for you in the car,” Gu Yun replied with a smile.
Seeing Gu Yun’s smile, Hai Tang suddenly felt a lot more courage and a sense of security. She nodded and walked into the mental hospital.
After entering the mental hospital, Hai Tang found the nurse who had contacted her. The nurse took her all the way into the hospital’s inpatient building.
As the two of them walked, the nurse explained the situation.” This patient was transferred to our hospital yesterday morning. He was in a car accident and hit his head. There’s a hole in his head. After he was rescued, fortunately, he only lost his memory and his life was not in danger. It’s rare for him to regain consciousness. When he woke up, he only knew to say your name.”
Hai Tang listened to the nurse’s description and her eyelids twitched.” What kind of car accident?” she asked in confusion. What happened to him?”
On the way here, she had been thinking about the identity of the patient who only remembered her name, but she could not come up with a conclusion.
When the nurse said this, Hai Tang became even more confused.
The nurse thought for a while and replied,” It’s said that he was drunk. He was racing on the bridge along the river in the middle of the night. He crashed into the concrete guardrail and fell into the water with his car. He was rescued by a passing fishing boat.”
“Racing?” When Hai Tang heard this, she subconsciously thought of magic cultivation, but she quickly shook her head and dispelled this idea.
Dharma Cultivators were very good at driving, so they definitely wouldn’t get into an accident.
“Let’s see him first,” Hai Tang said.
The nurse took Hai Tang into the inpatient building and led her to the elevator. She continued to speak with some emotion.” When this patient was saved, he did not have a phone on him. He did not have any identification documents or markings. He also did not remember who he was. It’s been almost two days, but no one from his family or friends has come to look for him. He doesn’t have an identity, so it’s not easy for the hospital to take him in.”
The elevator door opened, and the nurse walked out. Hai Tang quickly followed. The nurse said,” He owes hundreds of thousands just for the medical fees. Luckily, he said your name when he woke up yesterday afternoon, which gave us a clue. Otherwise, he would have been sent to the homeless shelter by our hospital.”
As she spoke, the nurse stopped in front of a ward. She opened the door and looked inside.” The patient is still sleeping. Due to his brain damage, he will fall asleep from time to time. I’ll try to wake him up. See if you can talk to him.”
Hai Tang was not sure if she knew this patient. She quickly waved her hand and said,” No need. Let him sleep for a while. I might not really know him. Let me go in and take a look first.”
“Alright, go in then. Watch him for a while. I’ll come over later.” The nurse nodded.
The lights in the ward were switched on. Hai Tang looked curiously and worriedly at the person sleeping on the bed.
At first glance, she felt that the person on the hospital bed was very unfamiliar.
He was wearing a hospital gown, his hair was shaved, and his head was wrapped in a thick layer of gauze. His eyes were closed, and a breathing machine was inserted into his nose.
But when Hai Tang focused her eyes, the person on the bed looked very similar to the Dharma Cultivator. The only difference was that the Dharma Cultivator Hai Tang had seen in the past always had a ruddy complexion and a bright smile, while the person on the bed had no blood on his face, as pale as paper.
Hai Tang subconsciously held her breath and carefully walked forward, gently moving the patient’s eyelids.
The person on the bed seemed to be in a deep sleep. Even if Hai Tang moved his eyelids, he looked as if he did not feel anything.
The moment she opened her eyes to reveal her blue pupils, Hai Tang was immediately certain that this person was a spell cultivator.
Only a Dharma Cultivator would have such a pair of crystal clear eyes that were as beautiful as sapphires..
