Chapter 1280 Leena Woke Up (Part One)
Hospitals usually have a slightly spooky atmosphere when it gets dark. In an army uniform, Kevin stood
against the cold wind on the balcony outside Leena''s ward. The decision of the higher authorities had
reached the military base in the daytime. Though Kevin was not downgraded, he was suspended. The
massive brawl between the seniors and recruits had led to life-threatening conditions as well as
damage to property. As their instructor, Kevin had to take the responsibility.
He took a drag on his cigarette, and exhaled the smoke. Smoke blurred his face. He hardly ever
smoked, but he was very upset now and needed to smoke to vent his frustration and despair.
Leena suffered a ck-out which so far hadsted for two days. For Kevin it seemed like two centuries.
He was used to her being around, especially her smiling face. Now, it was just a quiet Leena that he
was not ustomed to.
Heaving a long sigh of temporary relief, Kevin crushed out the cigarette and entered the ward. He
adjusted the covers for her so that she wouldn''t catch a cold, bent down and kissed her softly on her
cheek. Then he walked to his briefcase, took out a pen and paper and sat beside the bed. After
thinking for a little while, he began to write. The handwriting belonged to a man, vigorous and forceful.
Kevin was a handsome man. His face had well-defined angles — his forehead, cheeks and jawline.
Though he looked a little fierce, it added to his temperament as a soldier with stoicism and fortitude.
Leena felt like she had an extremely long dream. When she opened her eyes, there was a moment of
blinding pain after seeing the light, so she shut her eyes again until they eased in. When she opened
her eyes again, she found herself in bed and in a ward.
Leena looked away from the white ceiling and let her eyes fix on a man who buried himself in writing.
At the sight of his figure, she couldn''t help but curl her lips. She stared at him without breathing, as if
time stopped. It was his soulful calls that had brought her out of her dream and away from the
darkness.
Though she had been in confusion and even depression for a period of time, she pushed aside all
obstacles and difficulties to remember whose voice it was. It was her beloved husband! How could she
even forget?
"Kevin." Leena moved her lips to call him, but her voice was so hoarse and weak that it didn''t sound
like her at all.
Kevin''s hand shook at her call, and a long line was drawn on the paper that his report was destroyed.
He would have to rewrite itter.
Kevin''s heart stopped for a second. Did someone call out his name? He almost did not want to turn
around, for fear that it was just his imagination. He started to breathe heavily as his heart beat became
faster. He had to look. He had to know. Finally he turned to see the woman whom he had waiting for,
for what felt like an eternity. She had slept for a long time, and now she was staring at him with a pair of
smiling bright eyes. Blinking his eyes to be sure, Kevin was too thrilled to believe what he was looking
at.
"Nana, am I dreaming? Is that you? How are you feeling right now? I''m going to call Doctor Qin over."
Dropping the pen in his hand, Kevin stumbled towards the bed and reached out his arms in an attempt
to hold her. But he then backed off for fear that it might be a dream. If it was, he didn''t want to wake up
from it.
"Uh, have I slept a long time? Why do you seem to have aged a lot?" Leena reached out her hand to
touch his face, but then she found that she had no strength at all, barely able to raise her limp arm. On
seeing this, Kevin held her hand and put it against his face. Her hand was a little cold, which made him
worry about her condition. He choked up and couldn''t utter a word at the fact that she finally woke up.
His face was flooded with tears.
"Naughty girl! You''ve slept for two days! And after waking up, you even detest me because I look
older? What an ungrateful wife you are! Anyway, I''m your husband, and there''s nothing you can do
about it!" Kevin pecked her on the forehead, her cheeks, her nose, everywhere, repeatedly. He was
both scared and excited. Just thinking about the possibility that she might never wake up made him
shudder. Luckily, she did wake up, making him more than ecstatic.
"Sorry, Kevin. I heard what you said, but no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn''t get through the
dense fog. And I saw my mom. She asked me toe to her, but then your voice stopped me." Leena
heaved a sigh of relief. She had made the right decision. Otherwise she would not be able to see her
beloved husband again.

"Thank you, Nana. Thank you so much for choosing me." Leena''s words made him tremble with fear.
He held Leena in his arms as he couldn''t imagine what he would do if she had chosen to go with her
mother.
"Kevin, do you really mean what you said when I was asleep?" Leena asked with a sweet smile.
Kevin''s confession was so sincere and appealing that she managed to ovee all difficulties to wake
up and return to him.
"What did I say? I said nothing while you were asleep," Kevin teased. He had spent thest two days in
tears, worry and frustration and now he decided to crack a joke with her.
