In the quiet single room, Keiko lay on the hospital bed with a pale face, as if she had slept in the past. Only the ECG monitoring instrument still prompted her signs of life from time to time. Maybe it's because Keiko usually exercises. The doctor said that she was recovering well and that there were no signs of infection after surgery. However, because Keiko was too injured when she was taken to the hospital, she lost a lot of blood in her body. So when she will wake up is still uncertain.

It wasn't until Keiko was injured and hospitalized that Akemi learned about Keiko's condition from Lin Shuichi. Keiko's mother died when she was very young. Although his father was a member of the Diet, he was framed as a murderer by his political opponents in a despicable way, and finally died unjustly in the Tokyo detention center. As for the Nagao family, who later adopted Keiko. In addition to the relationship on the household register, he didn't really take care of Jingzi's life. So...... Over the years, Keiko has lived alone. And now, the only one who can take care of Jingzi is Lin Xiuyi.

Seeing that Lin Xiuyi had been guarding the hospital for three days, he had not rested well. Out of distress for Lin Shuichi's thoughts, Akemi and Sakurako offered to share the responsibility of taking care of Keiko. At this time, Akemi sat on the edge of Jingzi's bed, looking at this rival who made people envious, jealous, afraid and admired, but she couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in her heart.

"Miss Keiko, you're going to wake up, after all...... You're such a strong man!"

Akemi silently prayed in her heart, then looked at the clock on the wall again. It was late at night. Sakurako was now tired of lying on the seat next to her, as if she was struggling to hold on. These days, for Akemi, one blow after another is really coming one after another. If it weren't for Sakurako's company, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to survive it a long time ago!

"If Miss Keiko doesn't wake up in three days, then she'...... There's a good chance you'll turn into a vegetative ......"

Thinking of what the doctor had said to herself when she came out of the operating room that day, Akemi couldn't help but feel a pang of worry, and now ...... The three-day deadline is just one hour away. If Keiko really can't wake up, will she really become a vegetative state? If that happens, Akemi will never forgive herself.

"Jing Zisan, if you can wake up, I'll allow you to be with Xiu-chan, really, so please wake up quickly......! I'm really not going to bother with you!"

Akemi closed her eyes and said as she grabbed Keiko's hand and cried. These days, she almost always thinks about the situation when Jingzi blocked that knife for Lin Xiuyi that day. Whenever she thinks of that moment, Akemi can't hate Keiko at all in her heart. At this moment, Akemi has been secretly praying in her heart that if God can really let Keiko wake up, she can do whatever she wants.

……

"Akemi-chan, are you ...... Seriously?"

While Akemi was still begging the gods to bless Keiko, an almost imperceptible voice suddenly rang in Akemi's ears. When Akemi heard this voice, she immediately turned her head to look at Keiko lying on the bed in some astonishment, but saw a scene that she couldn't believe.

At this time, Keiko was actually looking at Akemi with her head sideways, smiling, although her face was still very bad. However, the consciousness is very clear.

"You...... You...... Have you woken up?"

"Hey! but ...... Just now...... Felt...... It may ...... Makes you feel embarrassed, so ...... I'm so sorry!"

"Ah...... Cherry...... Sakurako-sama, Keiko-sama, she woke up......"

"Ah...... I...... I'm going to call a doctor...... Doctor...... Wake up, come on!"

When Sakurako heard Akemi's call and woke up from her haze, she saw Keiko lying on the bed and really opened her eyes, so she happily rushed out of the ward, and then quickly ran out and called the doctor. Soon. A group of doctors on duty in the ward began to examine Jingzi in detail.

"Well, can you remember why you're here?"

"Like...... It seems to have been knifed...... Stabbing!"

So...... Is there anything you're uncomfortable with right now?

"I ...... I'm a little thirsty......"

……

The doctor irradiated Keiko's pupils with a flashlight, and then briefly checked a few questions, and then said to Akemi with relief.

"It seems that Miss Keiko is out of danger, but she has just woken up, so she should pay more attention to rest, and in addition, you can give her a little water to drink......"

"I ...... I see, thank you, doctor!"

……

When the doctor checked Jingzi, he then left after a few words. Until this time, Keiko looked at Sakurako and Akemi who were waiting beside her, and couldn't help but thank her heartily:

"I'm sorry to cause you so much trouble! I don't even know...... What to say!"

Maybe it was because he didn't see Lin Xiuyi's figure, Jingzi's expression suddenly darkened a little. However, the attentive Sakurako noticed this, so she said as if she had suddenly realized:

"Ah...... Miss Keiko has woken up, so...... I'd better inform Mr. Lin! After all, he's been here all along, and I think he'll be very happy to hear the news!"

Hearing Sakurako's words, Keiko's originally gloomy expression rejuvenated again, and she said to Sakurako and Akemi with some emotion:

"Hey...... It seems that Xiu Yijun is really not a competent subordinate!"

"Huh?"

"Because...... He always misses the most crucial moments!"

……

Hearing Keiko's ridicule, Akemi and Sakurako couldn't help but be amused by Keiko's words. And Sakurako...... After seeing Keiko looking at Akemi's expression, she knew that she might have something to say to Akemi, so she took the initiative to make an excuse and left the room.

When there were only two people left in the room again, Keiko said solemnly to Akemi:

"Thank you, you are willing to take care of me regardless of your past suspicions!"

"Huh...... Yes...... This one...... It's nothing, I'm just staying here today......"

"No...... I'm really grateful to you!Akemi-chan,...... We're really fated! We've been neighbors for so long before, and ...... Also fell in love with the same man...... If you can...... I would love to be close friends with you......"

"Uh...... Hey, I'm ...... That's what I thought too......"

"Regarding Lin Xiuyi's matter, I think it's better for me to explain it to you in person, so ...... It can delay you for some time...... Will you sit down and listen to me?"

Although Keiko's speed of speech was very peaceful, there was a feeling in his tone that was difficult to refuse, could it be ...... Is this the powerful aura on the big man, at this moment, Akemi can't say anything to refuse in the face of Keiko's request.
