Chapter 1580 Please Be Honest

1580 Please Be Honest

Iris' eyes widened. She froze and held her breath. Perhaps it was just her imagination.

After another minute, Grandma Li's fingers twitched again.

There was no mistake this time. She saw it with her own eyes.

Grandma Li had indeed moved!

"Li-liwei!" Iris ran outside, her eyes glowing with anxious excitement. "Liwei!!!"

Jin Liwei rushed from the balcony. "What happened?!" He looked at her up and down, checking if she was hurt anywhere.

Huang Yuyan and the others also looked at her. At this time, the door opened and in came a scowling Grandpa Lu followed by a stone-faced Lu Zihao.

"This pinheaded grandson of mine is too much!" Grandpa Lu grumbled. "He won't let me come here without making sure that I have at least eight hours of sleep. This old man can't sleep that long anymore! And he expects me to eat breakfast like an elephant! Does he want to send me to an early grave by overdosing me with sleep and food? I want to know! If this rascal isn't my own grandson, I would've already cracked his bloody head open and see what's inside! Hmph!"

When nobody responded to his grumbles, Grandpa Lu finally noticed that something was wrong.

Iris grabbed her husband and pulled him. "Grandma Li's hand moved! She moved!"

"What?!" Jin Chonglin jumped from his seat and ran to the patient's room while pulling Chen Fei.

"Hey, wait!" Chen Fei was dragged. She was tempted to kick her man but restrained herself given the situation.

Huang Yuyan also ran to the patient's room.

Jin Liwei also followed suit. However, unlike his careless younger brother, he didn't drag his wife. It was Iris who dragged him instead.

Chen Fei had already pressed the call button. A voice had already told them that a doctor was on the way.

Outside the patient room, Grandpa Lu finally returned to his senses. His irritation turned into excitement. He staggered while attempting to follow everyone.

"Careful, old man," Lu Zihao muttered while supporting Grandpa Lu.

Grandpa Lu didn't criticize him for calling him an old man like usual. "Li Zhiruo…did Zhiruo really move? Is she going to finally wake up? I want to know…"

Nobody answered him. Everyone, except for Lu Zihao, was looking forward to Grandma Li waking up.

Truth be told, Lu Zihao (Nikolai) didn't care much about the old Jin matriarch. The minuscule affection he had for the old lady stemmed from the fact that she was his sister's grandmother-in-law. That was it.

However, the original Lu Zihao adored the old lady. He could feel a faint tightening in his chest which he could recognize as anxiety. A deep furrow formed between his brows.

When the doctor and nurses arrived, they subconsciously stayed out of his way. He looked too ferocious. What if he started attacking them?

Lu Zihao faintly snorted seeing their reaction. Instead of focusing on his disconcerting reaction that escaped his full control, he instead paid more attention to the old man. Grandpa Lu's energy halved these past few days.

For Lu Zihao, this was more concerning than the old Jin matriarch's hospitalization. If something happened to the old man, he didn't know what he would do. He didn't delve into the reason why he would think this way. He wasn't yet ready to admit to himself that the old man had already burrowed his way deeply into Lu Zihao/Nikolai's heart.

While everyone else was bustling around Grandma Li, Lu Zihao only cared about Grandpa Lu.ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

His sister already had her husband. Jin Liwei should take care of Iris.

Or else.

Huang Yuyan and Jin Chonglin kept on calling Grandma Li, hoping that she would respond to them.

Jin Liwei held his grandmother's hand. His face was taut but there was a hopeful glint in his eyes, making his expression more alive compared to his depressing aura this past week.

"Xiulan, my dear." Huang Yuyan held Iris' arm. "Please talk to your grandmother. She responded to you. Maybe she'll respond again if you're the one talking to her."

Iris didn't think that Grandma Li would respond particularly to her. Perhaps it was just a coincidence earlier. However, she still agreed with her mother-in-law and tried talking to Grandma Li.

"Grandma, please wake up," she said while holding the old lady's hand that her husband held earlier. "Your great-grandkids can't wait to see you again. Little Mochi can't wait to perform in front of you. Little Matcha also likes the toys you gave him. The cats and dogs also adore you. Please, Grandma. Wake up."

This time, everyone saw the old lady's eyes trembling as if she was fighting hard to open them.

"Mom!" Huang Yuyan burst into another round of tears. "Wake up, Mom!"

"Grandma!" Jin Chonglin followed suit. "If you don't wake up, I'll…I'll parade in the streets naked! Hurry up and wake up! You need to stop me from doing something stupid!!!"

Chen Fei stared at her fiancé. Her lips thinned, glaring at Jin Chonglin. Then she said to the old lady, "Grandma Li, if you don't wake up, I'll leave this stupid grandson of yours! I don't need a man who parades himself naked in the streets!"

"Babe!" Jin Chonglin looked at her in disbelief. "I was just joking! I wasn't serious! I only said that to force my grandma to wake up!"

"Hmph!" She turned her head away from him.

The doctor cleared his throat. The nurses had already bowed their heads, hiding their faces beneath masks. Their shoulders shook from restrained laughter.

Grandpa Lu moved closer to the bed. "Li Zhiruo, if you don't wake up, I'll change the surnames of your great-grandsons from Jin to Lu!"

The old lady's eyes flew open.

"You dare…old gori…lla," a hoarse, weak voice said.

"Bahahaha!" Grandpa Lu threw his head back and laughed. Nobody mentioned the tears in his eyes to avoid embarrassing the old man. "I knew that you were going to wake up soon! I dreamed about your husband last night. He told me in the dream that he didn't want to meet his old, naggy wife so soon! Bahahaha!"

Lu Zihao stepped forward and covertly handed the old man some tissues to wipe his tears while the others were beyond excited and relieved to see the old lady finally regaining consciousness.

"Mom!" Huang Yuyan bent down on the bed and cried beside Grandma Li's head.

"Grandma, wuwuwu! You're finally awake!" Jin Chonglin hugged his pissed fiancée, not releasing her even though she kept on trying to push him away. "If you still didn't wake up, your grandson's wife would have run away!"

"I'm not your wife yet," Chen Fei said through gritted teeth.

Iris squeezed her husband's hand. Although Jin Liwei remained quiet compared to the others, Iris knew that her husband's emotions weren't any lesser than theirs. He just wasn't used to displaying too much emotions in front of other people.

"Grandma, how are you feeling?" Jin Liwei asked.

The doctor and the nurses gave him a slightly dissatisfied look. It was because his tone sounded too cold and indifferent. His grandmother almost died and yet he was still too calm! Indeed, CEO billionaires like Jin Liwei were all cold-blooded, heartless capitalists.

Unlike them, however, Iris could sense the immense emotions in her husband's tone. They were undetectable to people who didn't know him well enough. But to her, his wife, they were as clear as day.

"Li…wei," Grandma Li said, her voice cracking.

"Yes, Grandma." Jin Liwei's tone might sound cold and indifferent to the doctor and nurses but Iris and the others knew the gravity of his emotions.

"Who are you calling an old buffoon?! I want to know!!!"

Grandpa Lu pretended to get angry. His eyes, however, continued to produce water. He turned around and pretended to cough, when in fact, he was wiping tears with the tissues his grandson kept on handing him.

"Xiu…Xiulan…."

Iris leaned forward. "Grandma Li. I'm here."

"You…thank you…voice…woke me up…."

"I knew it," Huang Yuyan said. Her tears flowed down her eyes. "I knew that Mom responded to Xiulan. Thank you, my dear. You woke up your grandma."

Iris just smiled. She didn't think that it was all thanks to her. But if the others thought so, then let them continue thinking that way.

The most important thing was that Grandma Li had already woken up.

The doctor examined Grandma Li.

Although the others were happy that the old lady finally woke up, the doctor still maintained a grave expression. Iris and Lu Zihao were the only ones who noticed this.

The brother and sister glanced at each other. They tacitly chose to remain silent, not wanting to burst everyone's happy bubbles.

It seemed that Grandma Li's vision had been considerably affected. She couldn't see their faces unless they moved close to her. Another thing was that one side of her face drooped, making it difficult for her to speak.

She also tired easily. Before she succumbed to sleep, she managed to tell Jin Liwei to call her lawyer.

Everyone's hearts thumped, their expressions turning serious once again.

Jin Liwei took a few deep breaths before speaking to the doctor outside the patient's room. Iris followed her husband.

Huang Yuyan, Jin Chonglin, and Grandpa Lu decided to stay in the patient room longer to watch over Grandma Li.

Chen Fei went to the balcony to call Long Jinjing and updated her best friend about what happened. Lu Zihao went outside to who knew where.

"How's my grandmother?" Jin Liwei asked the doctor. "Please be honest."
