Xu Weilai’s pupils constricted as she stared at Grandpa Gu’s hand without blinking, fearing that she might have imagined what she saw. She almost forgot how to breathe.

Grandpa Gu’s finger moved again.

It was real.

Xu Weilai sat frozen for a few seconds before she stood up and reached for the nurse call button and pressed for medical help.

Mrs. Lin was the first to rush in. Worry written all over her face for fear that something bad happened to Mr. Gu Sr. She rushed towards the bedside and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong? What happened to Mr. Gu Sr.?”

She heaved an enormous sigh when she saw that Grandpa Gu was still lying on the bed. She looked towards Xu Weilai.

Xu Weilai stood shivering. She frantically looked around until her gaze fell on Mrs. Lin’s confused face. She slowly enunciated, “Mrs. Lin... I saw Grandpa’s finger move just now.”

Mrs. Lin stared dumbfounded at Xu Weilai, as she couldn’t believe her ears. Still confused, she mouthed, “What?”

“Grandpa’s finger moved. I saw his finger move.”

Mrs. Lin covered her mouth with both her hands. Her eyes widened. Her expression was as startled as before.

The doctor and nurses also entered the ward. Xu Weilai made a quick explanation to the doctor before she pulled Mrs. Lin backward to allow the doctor and nurses to do their examination on Grandpa Gu.

Grandpa Gu had been in a comatose state for several months, with no sign of life. If it were not for the machines and drugs to help him clung on to life, he wouldn’t have been able to hang on for so long. Everyone around him had already accepted that he might not regain consciousness since he had been in a deep sleep for such a long time.

It was totally unexpected for him to regain consciousness.

Mrs. Lin’s eyes were reddened. Although the doctors were still examining Mr. Gu Sr. and had not come up with any diagnostic, her tears were already streaming from her eyes uncontrollably.

Xu Weilai held her hand and comforted her quietly, although she was extremely anxious as well.

If Grandpa could regain his consciousness and recovered, that would be the happiest moment in this eventful period.

The ten minutes they spent waiting for the doctor to examine Grandpa Gu felt like a century. The doctor turned around to speak to them after the examination ended.

Xu Weilai took a deep breath and looked at the doctor. “How is it? Is Grandpa going to regain his consciousness?”

A faint smile appeared on the doctor’s face. “Mr. Gu Sr. seems to start having sensitivity towards the world around him. This is a good omen. We can’t rule out the possibility that he will regain his consciousness.”

Mrs. Lin could not keep her composure and asked, “That means... it’s highly likely that he will wake up, is that correct?”

The doctor nodded. “From the looks of it, the situation is very optimistic. Grandpa Gu’s will to survive has always been very strong. I suggest that his close relatives or people he cares about talk to him more and give him more encouragement. It will be very helpful for him to regain his consciousness.”

“That’s great... that’s great.” Mrs. Lin couldn’t hold back her tears as they continued streaming down her face.

She held Xu Weilai’s hand. “Miss Xu, did you hear that? There’s hope for Grandpa Gu to wake up. No, he will wake up. He will definitely wake up.”

“Yes, I heard that.” Xu Weilai’s eyes were slightly red. “Grandpa will definitely wake up.”

Mrs. Lin wiped Mr. Gu Sr.’s body while she talked to her after the doctor left. Xu Weilai walked to the window and looked at the sky outside. Hesitation filled her eyes, but still she took out her phone and made the call.
