His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 1373

Chapter 1373 Welcome Back to the Living

The next day, Wang Yingjie came and took a look at the comatose Lu Zihao with the mansion's private doctor. He didn't find anything new as expected. Despite this, he remained optimistic because he had already personally witnessed this kind of case in both Lu Zihao himself, and of course, Iris.

"Fifth Brother's brain waves are very active," he said. "He's seemingly unresponsive to outside stimuli but it's clear that he's dreaming a lot based on his brain's activity rate. At least, I see no damage in his brain. This is very similar to his brain scans during his previous coma. Oh, and Xiulan's, too."

Long Jinjing and Grandpa Lu hung on to Wang Yingjie's every word. Iris and Jin Liwei were also present.

Wang Yingjie looked at the private doctor. "I'm more familiar with Fifth Brother and Third Sister-in-law's very similar medical cases. Although we haven't figured out the exact cause why the two have a tendency to fall into coma now and then, we already know that the common denominator between the two of them is their history of experiencing severe injuries that left them comatose for the first time—almost dead, basically. Both of them also experienced some drastic changes in their personalities after they miraculously woke up. Just like before, we can only conclude that their tendency to fall into coma might be one of the sequelae both of them need to live with after their life-altering injuries back then. All of these are just deductions, nothing concrete yet."

He was speaking to everyone but his gaze was on Iris. "If you all want more definite answers than what I'm providing you right now, then Fifth Brother and Third Sister-in-law Xiulan must consent to letting me and maybe some of my medical peers to study the two of them."

Jin Liwei frowned and pulled his wife closer to him. "Absolutely not."

Wang Yingjie sighed but didn't insist. He already expected this answer.

"I don't want to become a test subject," Iris said. "I'm sure that Big Brother won't want to become one either."

Long Jinjing bit her lower lip. Like Grandpa Lu, she wanted more definite answers than mere assumptions but couldn't argue at what Iris said. Knowing her husband, Lu Zihao would most likely flip out if she tried persuading him to become a medical case study.

Grandpa Lu narrowed his wizened eyes at Iris. She wasn't unnerved at all and looked back calmly at the old man. He harrumphed but didn't try forcing her into anything that she didn't want to do.

"May I speak to Big Brother?" Iris asked Long Jinjing.

Long Jinjing hesitated before nodding. "You can go in now. Grandpa Lu and I will continue talking here to Second Brother and the doctor."

Iris and Jin Liwei entered the hospital room together. She sat on the chair beside the bed and studied her unconscious brother. Jin Liwei stood behind her and placed his hand on her shoulder, silently sending her his support. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy.

Lu Zihao's features had become sharper as he lost some weight after being unconscious for this long. His impressive muscles were all still there, but if he remained in coma for longer, then he would surely lose some of them.

"Big Brother, I'm here," Iris spoke in Russian.

No response.

"I just want to tell you…that I'm not sorry for all the things I said to you when we fought. I meant everything I said that day. I still believe that…you should prioritize your family over the need to avenge what happened to us back then."

Silence. _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

Iris sighed but wasn't dejected. "As for me, I'm now willing to face my past life unlike before. But it's only because I want to protect the family that I built with Liwei, so I don't want anything from our past life to interfere with my happiness right now. This is not revenge but a self-defence mechanism. I'm not saying that your method of dealing with our past life is wrong and I'm right or vice versa. My point is that I prefer for us to focus more on living in the present to the best of our abilities especially since both of us already have our own families. We have spouses who'll be heartbroken if something bad happens to us, and of course, young children who depend on us.

"Hopefully, this time, I'm able to convey my point to you more clearly than the last time. I hope that you'll understand where I'm coming from. It's not that I'm criticizing you. I'm just worried about you and your family. I don't want us siblings to lose each other again. One time is enough. I don't want to experience it a second time. I'm sure that your wife and children wouldn't want to lose their husband and father either. Please understand, Big Brother."

Her eyes reddened but she was able to control her emotions better this time. She continued to observe her unconscious brother, hoping to detect any tiny signs that he might wake up soon. No such luck, unfortunately.

She touched his hand. It felt cool to the touch and rough from the scars. "Please wake up. Your wife looks terrible from worrying day and night about you. At this rate, she'll waste away just like you."

As usual, there was still no response.

Iris glanced at her husband. Jin Liwei rubbed her shoulders, comforting her.

"Let's go?" she asked.
