Chapter 599: Conversing With Lu Yunxiao Through His Conscious
Lu Jianlin arrived very soon. Clearly, he had gotten the driver to speed up.
The expression on his face at this moment was no longer as stern as before. There was even excitement in his eyes.
“Is Yunxiao really conscious?”
“That’s right.”
The three of them, who were waiting for him in the living room, stood up and they headed towards the basement together.
When they arrived at the underground lab, Zi Yi connected to Lu Yunxiao’s ward.
Elder Hu and Lu Yi were seen standing by the transparent container
At the sight of Lu Jianlin, they first saluted and greeted him.
Lu Jianlin nodded to the two men and asked Zi Yi, “Little Zi, how are we going to converse with Yunxiao?”
Zi Yi brought up the virtual keyboard. After her fingers tapped on the keyboard for a while, a virtual screen appeared inside the ward and it connected to the main controller next to the container.
Soon, brain waves were being displayed on the controller.
Zi Yi said to them, “I’m connecting to Yunxiao’s brain waves now. You can tell him if you have anything to say. But it’s best to keep the sentence short, as it would be easier on him. He shouldn’t speak too much or else it will put pressure on him.”
The three Lu Family members made eye contact with each other.
In the end, Lu Jianlin said to Mrs. Lu, who was somewhat shaking due to excitement, “Lingluo, what do you want to say to Yunxiao?”
“I… I don’t know.”
There were too many things she wanted to say but her mind was completely blank now that she had been asked to say a simple sentence.
“Jianlin, why don’t you say it first? I… I can talk to Yunxiao later,” Mrs. Lu said this with great distress.
Lu Jianlin held her hand and said, “We’ll each say one sentence.”
Mrs. Lu opened her mouth but ended up nodding her head.
Zi Yi had soon connected to Lu Yunxiao’s brain waves. She got Lu Jingye to speak first.
Lu Jingye unconsciously lowered his voice and called out. “Yunxiao.”
As soon as Lu Jingye spoke, Yunxiao’s brain waves fluctuated.
Soon, a word was shown on the virtual screen.
Mrs. Lu gasped and covered her mouth. Her tears started spilling out again.
Lu Jianlin patted her on the shoulder and asked Zi Yi, “Little Zi, can I speak now?”
Zi Yi pressed a few keys on the keyboard and said, “Go ahead.”
Lu Jianlin looked at his second son who was submerged in the nutrient solution and his voice was slightly hoarse. “Yunxiao, this is Father. I order you to get better soon.”
No words were shown on the screen, but the fluctuation of the brain waves was greater.
Lu Jianlin’s expression stiffened.
Mrs. Lu asked anxiously, “Is what Jianlin said too long? Will it have an impact on Yunxiao?”
Before Zi Yi got the chance to reply, two words appeared on the screen. “Yes, Father!”
Mrs. Lu nearly teared up again due to joy.
Zi Yi quickly pressed a few keys again and said to Mrs. Lu, “Mom, you can talk now.”
Mrs. Lu tried her best to restrain her tears and used her gentlest voice to call out. “Yunxiao, this is Mother.”
No words had immediately appeared on the screen.
Other than Zi Yi, everyone else could not help but hold back their breaths as their hearts seemed to come up to their throats.
A longer time compared to earlier passed by before the word ‘Mother’ appeared on the screen.
“Yunxiao finally called out me. Wuuuu…” Mrs. Lu finally lost control and threw herself into Lu Jianlin’s embrace as she cried loudly.
Zi Yi quickly swiped around on the virtual screen.
Lu Jingye saw how the brainwaves on the screen became stable and breathed a sigh of relief. “Little Zi, is Yunxiao alright?”
“It’s fine, he’s just a little tired.”
Zi Yi pressed around for some time before she stopped and turned off the virtual screen. She started discussing with Elder Hu.
“Since Yunxiao is awake, we can change his medicine.” Zi Yi thought about it and said, “Ah Jing and I will come over on the 26th.”
Their wedding was going to be held on the 24th and they had to make a trip to her Uncle’s house on the 25th.
Elder Hu nodded his head and asked, “Do I need to make any preparations in these next few days?”
“You can…”
Zi Yi told Elder Hu many things.
Elder Hu could not remember them all and so he got Lu Yi, who was standing next to him, to record them down.
Zi Yi turned off the video call after they were done and the four of them returned to the living room.
Mrs. Lu held onto Zi Yi’s hand and said, “Yiyi, since Yunxiao has regained his consciousness, when will he be able to wake up?”
“It’s possible that he might wake up any time.”
“Really?”
“That’s right.”
After getting a positive answer, Mrs. Lu suddenly hugged Zi Yi and said excitedly, “That’s great.”
She could not help but start crying once again.
Zi Yi patted her back. She knew that she was crying out of joy and did not try to console her.
After Mrs. Lu’s emotions had recovered slightly, Lu Jianlin asked, “Little Zi, what do we need to prepare now?”
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye made eye contact.
Lu Jingye said, “There’s no need for you to prepare anything. Yiyi has already informed me of whatever needs to be prepared.”
Lu Jianlin nodded his head and he suddenly said to Zi Yi in a serious tone, “Thank you, Little Zi.”
Zi Yi smiled and said, “Father, Yunxiao is Jingye’s younger brother and so he is also my younger brother. It’s only natural that I save him.”
Lu Jianlin’s face showed a trace of emotion and he said, “You two will be holding your wedding in a few days, you should take a good rest and make sure you don’t overwork yourself.”
Mrs. Lu nodded approvingly. “That’s right. You do experiments until very late every day and if you get dark circles under your eyes, I’d like to see how you wear your wedding dress well.”
Zi Yi nodded obediently. “Got it!”
Lu Jianlin and Mrs. Lu showed gratified expressions at the same time.
The four of them chatted for a while more but Lu Jianlin still had to go back to work, while Mrs. Lu had to go to Lu Jingye’s villa to supervise the work. The two of them left together by car.
Zi Yi looked at Lu Jingye and he said, “The set of jewelry Mother designed for you will be arriving today, do you want to try it on when it comes?”
Zi Yi nodded her head. “Yes.”
The both of them stood up at the same time.
Zi Yi originally planned to go to the villa, when she suddenly heard the sound of a car driving in. Following that, the voice of Ian greeting the housekeeper could be heard.
“Hello, Mr. Housekeeper. Is Lu and Zi around?”
“Yes, they are here.”
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye waited in the living room for a short moment and saw Ian coming in from the courtyard with the housekeeper.
Ian looked at them with a smile. “I thought that you would be busy at this time.”
Zi Yi checked him out from head to toe.
Ian was wearing his most decent and handsome white suit with a thick, gray woolen coat on the outside. His blond curly hair was even styled and most importantly, he wore a brooch and cufflinks.
“We’ve really been busy all day long.” Zi Yi sighed and asked, “So who invited you to go and drink coffee again today?”
In fact, she very much wanted to ask: “You’ve been drinking coffee these past few days; aren’t you afraid of having an overdose of coffee?”
Unexpectedly, Ian smiled while showing his teeth. “I didn’t drink coffee today. Xiangling and I went to the building materials shop and the flower and bird market.
Zi Yi was surprised. “Then why are you dressed so… flowery?”
Ian disagreed with her point of view. “We were there to discuss business and obviously I have to dress formally.”
