Bringing the Nation's Husband Home - Chapter 361

Chapter 361

The drive took only fifteen minutes to reach the hospital Xu Jiamu was staying in .

Xu Wanli and Han Ruchu were probably busy, for they hadn't yet made it yet . Lu Jinnian and Xu Jiamu's relationship was always very good . When Qiao Anhao asked if he wanted to go upstairs to see him, Lu Jinnian thought about it for a moment and nodded . He parked the car in the hospital’s underground parking lot, locked the car, and followed Qiao Anhao in .

The nurse taking care of Xu Jiamu was waiting for Qiao Anhao in the first floor hall . When she saw her enter, she immediately took her upstairs . As they walked, she described how Xu Jiamu woke up .

"Today, at around six o'clock, Mr . Xu moved . Ever since Mr . Xu moved last time, he would move a little every day, but tonight, he moved quite often . We didn't think much of it, but when I came back from the restroom just now, I noticed that Mr . Xu's eyes were actually wide open . . . "

Following the nurse's description, Qiao Anhao and Lu Jinnian stepped into the hospital room . It was just as she had described, Xu Jiamu lay in bed with an IV attached to his arm . His eyes were open, staring at the ceiling, as though he was thinking of something .

Even though there was no love or blood relation between them, to Qiao Anhao, Xu Jiamu was like her biological brother - a brother who had protected her ever since she was young . Especially after her parents had passed away, Xu Jiamu really doted upon her . So when she saw Xu Jiamu, who was unconscious for so long, open his eyes, a hint of excitement inexplicably came over her .

She rushed over to his bedside without a second thought and stared at Xu Jiamu for a long time . After confirming her reflection in his eyes, she then called out, "Brother Jiamu . "

Xu Jiamu stared at her with a lifeless expression, as though she was a stranger . His look was blank and unresponsive .

Qiao Anhao was frightened by the emptiness in his gaze and continued to call out, "Brother Jiamu?" Then she carefully and gently asked again, "Brother Jiamu, you don't recognize who I am?"

When Xu Jiamu heard Qiao Anhao's last words, his eyes finally moved . He stared at her with a glossy eyes .

Qiao Anhao held her breath, as she looked at Xu Jiamu . She didn’t dare say a word, her eyes filled with anticipation .

Xu Jiamu looked at her for a long time, then forced his hand to touch hers . He wanted to hold it, but he didn't have the strength to do so . In the end, all he could do was stretch his lips into a slight smile . As if it required a lot of energy, he spit out two murmured words, "Qiao… Qiao . . . "

Suddenly, Qiao Anhao's tears fell and she tightly grasped Xu Jiamu's hand . She was so emotional, she couldn't really speak .  "Brother Jiamu, you're finally awake . You don't know just how you scared me . Brother Jiamu, I thought you'd never wake up again . . . "

Lu Jinnian, who had followed Qiao Anhao into the hospital room, saw this scene and only felt an abundance of needles stabbing into his heart .

The hand Qiao Anhao held Xu Jiamu with shook for a long while, before she remembered Lu Jinnian . Then she raised her hand to wipe away her tears . With a red nose, she moved away and said to Xu Jiamu, "Brother Jiamu, Lu Jinnian is here too . "
