Chapter 707 - Skull-splitting Pain
Xie Ming, who was lying on the hospital bed, groaned in pain as she tried to move her hands with her eyes closed, but the restriction of IV drip attached to her, made it difficult for her to make any movement.
A frown appeared on her forehead as she let out a painful cry because she pulled her hand with a force resulting in the syringe in her skin to dig deeper. Her eyes were closed but she was trying to open her eyes slowly but the sharp headache was making it difficult for her to do anything.
"Errr…" she groaned while clutching the bedsheet tightly as her eyes fluttered and she slowly opened her eyes. She flinched when the sudden brightness made her eyes uncomfortable, causing her to close her eyes again.
After a while, she tried again and took deep breaths while opening her eyes. Her heart was racing like crazy as she was afraid to witness the complete darkness again. However, when her eyes opened, she sighed in relief as tears started to flow from her eyes.
Although the surroundings were a little blurry to her, however,?she could recognize this kind of setting which was different from the one she saw, after waking up in that mysterious place. The most important thing was, there was light and that's why it was hard for her to adjust to this sudden brightness.
But after recognizing the surroundings, she was relieved that she was in the hospital and not in some other strange place. She looked down and saw that her hand was attached to the IV drip and understood why it was hurting when she pulled it earlier.
She looked around but a frown appeared between her brows when she noticed that no one was in the room.
"Liwei...where...is…" she was trying to speak but her voice didn't come out and she could only whisper because of her dry throat. Her throat was hurting when she tried to speak anything.
She tried to move and held onto the handle of the bed tightly and tried to get up but her weak body gave up and she plopped back on the bed, causing her to cry in pain.
At the same time, the hospital door opened and Jin Liwei walked in while talking to Grandfather Su who was walking beside him.
" Doctor Su, it's been more than a week and she hasn't woken up yet. Are you sure that there is nothing wrong with her health? I mean if that's true then what is the reason for her being like this? I can't see her like….Ah, Xie Ming!" Liwei shouted in shock when he saw Xie Ming falling back on the bed as soon as he pushed the door open.
Seeing her awake was already a big shock for him, but when she cried in pain due to strain made him more worried. He ran to her side in long strides and held onto her hand and supported her back with the other, helping her to sit on the bed. While Grandfather Su pressed the button to elevate the bed so that she could sit against it.
He was also surprised to see her awake after a week. Her face was pale and sickly with her purple chapped lips but it was already a great recovery that she woke up.
"You...you okay? When did you wake up...I mean...I...you are fine right? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Wait, let me call a doctor." Liwei said while panicking. He was not in his senses and couldn't remember what he was saying.
" Ahem, I am also a doctor. I can check on her." Grandfather Su coughed lightly and said making Liwei realize that the doctor was right beside him. Even though he is an oriental medicine doctor, he was working on Xie Ming's case closely.
Xie Ming sighed weakly and looked at Liwei who was checking her out worriedly. Her eyes watered as she remembered how helpless she felt being trapped in that strange dark place, without knowing a way to go out.
Unlike the real Xie Ming, she didn't show but she was afraid that they won't be able to go back. The experience of being trapped in that place and the bloody nightmare had left her emotionally drained.
A tear made its way to her cheek as he remembered that she almost parted away from Liwei forever. Thanks to Xie Ming, whose method worked and they managed to go back to their places.
" Li...Wei.." she whispered in a low voice while looking at him with love while raising her hand to reach out for his face.
" Don't speak. I am here." he held onto her hand and leaned in so that she could touch him easily. She caressed his face while looking at his face and sniffled remembering those scary memories.
Liwei also rubbed her hand and looked into her eyes lovingly. He can't explain in words how scared he was seeing her in that state.
Grandfather Su who was standing on the side pursed his lips and stood there awkwardly, waiting for them to be done with their formalities so that he could check on her. Although he knows that it's a special moment for them that she woke up after being unconscious after a week, however, he was getting impatient and was feeling awkward, wondering what to do.
He couldn't decide if he should go back and stay there to check on her. At that time he realized that his love cells has died a long ago and he can't even feel emotional seeing such a heart touching scene.

Liwei passed her a glass of water to quench her thirst after Grandfather Su checked her pulse and asked, "Do you feel pain anywhere or feeling uncomfortable?" he asked Xie Ming.
She thought about it and responded, " I felt my bones breaking and skull-splitting pain when I woke up but that pain seems to have subsided now. I am just feeling lethargic and it feels that I can't even move my hand myself." she said.
" Tsk, do you seriously have to explain your discomfort so scarily?" He shook his head and turned to Liwei, " Everything seems fine for now. We can get her some tests done to make sure if everything is okay." he said after he was done asking checking on her.
" Now you guys can continue. I am closing the door." He said, before leaving the room while waving his hand in the air to show that he is getting out.
Liwei chuckled and glanced at Xie Ming who was also looking at him with her weak smile.
" Thanks for waking up," he whispered in a low voice which made her heart clench. She realized that she was not only blessed in her last life but in this as well. She doesn't care about the curse but she was glad that Liwei has been by her side in every single life.
