Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

Panda Novel

Upon hearing Lang Zhan's words, Dai Chukong seemed to have thought of something and her expression was a little bitter.

Upon seeing Dai Chukong's worried expression, Lang Zhan thought that he had said something wrong. He hurriedly said, "You don't have to call me that. Don't look so sad…"

"Uncle." Dai Chukong suddenly called him uncle softly.

Lang Zhan was stunned for a moment before he smiled foolishly.

When he realized that Dai Chukong's gaze had been looking past his shoulder, Lang Zhan knew that she was worried about Qi Bufan's situation. He hurriedly took a step back and invited her in.

Dai Chukong strode in and came to the bed.

When she saw Qi Bufan lying quietly and motionless, Dai Chukong's heart skipped a beat. She had the thought that this person might lie like this forever and never wake up.

This thought made Dai Chu break out in cold sweat.

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

"Brother…" Dai Chukong was used to calling Qi Bufan Brother. When she saw him, she naturally called him Brother. Only when she said this did she realize that she had an outsider by her side.

Dai Chukong quickly stopped talking.

She sat down and held Qi Bufan's hand. Qi Bufan's hand was very cold, and his fingers were motionless, like a mannequin's hand. Dai Chukong placed Qi Bufan's hand on her face and tried to use her body temperature to warm Qi Bufan's cold fingers.

"Brother." She secretly called him brother in a very low voice.

She called him brother because she felt guilty.

She was afraid that Lang Zhan would hear her, but she was also afraid that Qi Bufan would hear her. If Qi Bufan heard her, he would be angry.

"I'm here to see you." Dai Chukong put away her sadness and told Qi Bufan some interesting things about the past years. "Wake up quickly. Do you remember? In the ravine in your hometown, when it snowed in winter, the pond under the small waterfall was covered in a layer of ice. Some small fish would be frozen inside. You like to pick up frozen fish in the winter and roast them."

"It's winter now, so there must be frozen fish to eat. If you want to eat, wake up quickly. I'll take you back to your hometown to eat frozen fish."

Then, Dai Chukong looked at Qi Bufan quietly and stared into his eyes, looking forward to the moment those brown eyes opened. However, those eyes were closed the whole time and showed no signs of waking up.

Dai Chukong was a little anxious.

"Will you wake up? Will you? You have to wake up!"

"I'm graduating from university next year. Brother, you have to attend my graduation party and take photos with me. You have to watch me graduate with your own eyes!"

Qi Bufan still did not react.

Dai Chukong had a vague guess.

She roughly understood what the answer that Qi Bufan really wanted to hear was. Her left hand, which was placed beside Qi Bufan, suddenly clenched into a fist. The girl's lips were bitten tightly and lost all color.

Dai Chukong closed her eyes and said with tears streaming down her face, "Father, I don't have any love between a man and a woman for you. Last time, I was joking. How could I like you? You're older than me. You're unromantic. You're too dull. I don't love you at all."

"Father, I want to be your… daughter forever…"

After saying the last word, Dai Chukong's heart suddenly ached terribly.

She suddenly covered her chest, her face slightly pale, and her body felt as though it was suffocating. At that moment, Dai Chukong forgot about her breathing technique. She lay on the bed, her expression especially twisted.

Lang Zhan noticed that she was very uncomfortable and hurried over to support her shaking body. He asked in concern, "Girl, what's wrong?"

Dai Chukong said with difficulty, "Uncle, help me up."

Lang Zhan helped Dai Chukong up obediently.

The moment Dai Chukong stood up, she pushed Lang Zhan away and turned to run out. Just as she ran to the washroom, Dai Chukong suddenly couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of blood into the washroom's sink.

"Ah!"

She placed her hands on the sink and leaned against it, her heart still aching.

"I don't love you…"

As though she was hypnotizing herself, Dai Chukong bent down and leaned her head against the tap. The tap was turned on, and water flowed out. At the same time, Dai Chukong's self-deceiving voice sounded. "I don't love you. I really don't love you. How could I love you? I just admire you and respect you. I was wrong!"

"I don't love you…"

Dai Chukong repeated this over and over again. Her heart gradually calmed down, as if she really did not love that man.

She stayed in the washroom for a long time.

When she regained consciousness and her heart did not feel so uncomfortable anymore, Dai Chukong washed her face with cold water. She straightened her back and wiped the blood off the glass mirror.

Staring at the pale woman in the mirror, Dai Chukong smiled self-deprecatingly before turning around and returning to the ward.

Before she reached the ward and was still in the corridor, she heard voices coming from Qi Bufan's ward. Dai Chukong was stunned for a moment, and her heart skipped a beat. A sickly red blush appeared on her pale face.

Dai Chukong ran into the ward and saw the night doctor talking to Qi Bufan.

He was awake!

After she had said that she did not love him…

Dai Chukong stood under the door frame and looked at the man who was talking to the doctor with a hoarse voice and a slight frown. Her heart ached.

Qi Bufan seemed to have sensed something and turned to look at the door.

When he saw Dai Chukong standing there with her back against the corridor light and a small school bag on her back, his lips gradually closed and his eyes turned slightly red. Dai Chukong also looked at him, not daring to go forward.

Qi Bufan suddenly raised a hand gently and said to her, "Come, Chukong."

When she heard him call her name again, Dai Chukong's tears almost flowed out of her eyes again. She suddenly ran over in big strides. Under the surprised gazes of Lang Zhan and the doctor, she ran to the bed and hugged Qi Bufan.

"I almost thought you would never wake up again!"

"You're so ruthless! Even if you want to take revenge on me, you shouldn't use this method!"

"I almost thought that I was going to live alone again…"

After Dai Chukong finished shouting, she leaned on Qi Bufan's shoulder and cried.

This time, she cried very sadly, as if her heart had been stabbed.

Dai Chukong hugged Qi Bufan tightly, as if she was hugging him with all her strength. The doctor looked at the two of them and was a little surprised. What was their relationship? It was not easy for the doctor to ask, so he kept worrying about them. If they were a couple, the age difference seemed to be a little big.

Were they siblings? This reaction was not right.

What were they?

Countless vague guesses flashed across the doctor's mind, but he did not dare come to a conclusion. Lang Zhan saw the doctor's confusion and coughed softly to attract his attention. Only then did Lang Zhan explain to him in a low voice, "They're foster daughter and father."

Upon hearing this, the doctor looked enlightened.

So this was it.
