The Whole World is Looking for Huo Mian (2)

"For days."2

Qin Chu: "…"

"I thought you'd ask me which year we're in," Rick said with a straight face.

"No. I was in a coma; I didn't travel through time."

"To tell you the truth, we were scared when you were unconscious for so long," sitting on the chair beside the bed, Rick said slowly.

"Yeah. At that moment, I thought I'd die," Qin Chu said.

"How are you feeling now? Do you want me to call the doctors?"

"No. I'm feeling okay. I want to talk." When Rick rose to get the doctors, Qin Chu waved his hand, gesturing for him to sit down.

"Okay."

"When did you come back?"

"Yesterday."

"Did Xixi come back too?"

"Yeah."

"How about my daughters?" Thinking of his two precious daughters, Qin Chu felt warm inside.

"They are very well. They stayed with you during the day. In the evening, they got tired and returned to South Hill Manor with your mother."

"Have my parents returned?"

"Yeah. So has your uncle."

"My uncle is back?" Qin Chu was surprised.

"Yeah. They were worried about you and thought you'd…" Rick paused.

"They thought I'd never wake up, right?"

"Yeah. After all, your condition was very critical; besides, the drug you took is very powerful. All the doctors in and outside of China were clueless as to what to do."

"Who performed the surgery on me?" Qin Chu asked. 

"How did you know you had an operation?" Rick was astonished.

After all, Qin Chu had just woken up and wasn't aware of the situation yet.

"I have stitches here…" Qin Chu pointed at his chest.

"You sure are sensitive to these things, you are indeed a doctor. I was about to tell you that your surgery was done by…"

"The professor came back, right?" Qin Chu asked quietly.

"How did you guess that?"

"Other than my Mian, no one else has such good medical skills… Lu Yan couldn't have done it since she only studies bombs."

"Yeah. The professor came back. In fact, I was astonished to see him…" Rick nodded.

"I'm not surprised. Mian is his daughter and he wouldn't stand by and watch. Lu Yan must have come too."

"Yeah. I think so. Su Yu doesn't know Lu Yan, so he didn't mention her. But my men found that many of Huo Siqian's lackeys had been killed after you fell unconscious. The Municipal Public Security Bureau couldn't find the killer, which gave Gao Ran a hard time. But I think Lu Yan did it trying to find information about Huo Mian's whereabouts."

Hearing the mention of Mian, Qin Chu fell silent and lowered his head; beneath his long eyelashes, his eyes were full of sorrow.

"Did the professor leave?"

"Yeah. He left today. Pudding and Little Bean seem to be close to him. When he left, the kids cried, and the professor looked melancholic."

"They are related by blood; it's natural for them to feel close to each other."

"Qin Chu, why didn't you ask about Mian?" Rick couldn't bear it anymore and asked.

"It's useless to ask. I'm sure you don't have any information about her whereabouts."

"You even thought about this?" Rick was surprised. Qin Chu was so smart that he had guessed many things with accuracy.

"Since Huo Siqian had planned all this, he won't let you find him with ease. That's not his style."

"Qin Chu, have you ever considered that Huo Mian might be dead?" Rick asked him slowly.
