After the call was cut off, Fred's call came in.
"Master Qin, I'm Fred Wu."
"Yes, go on." Jason breathed lightly and said in a low voice.
"Emily woke up for a total of 5 times since 11 pm last night. 3 of those times were only a temporary awakening, and only at 4am plus the last instance was she completely awake and had an independent consciousness. She can also start having simple conversations."
"Alright, what will happen next?"
"The medical staff of the institute said that it was a good sign. At least Emily's current injuries have been further controlled, but it does not mean that the old injury will not relapse, so she needs further observation. However, it is already great news considering that she had been in a state of intracranial hemorrhage and was in a coma." Fred said sincerely.
Jason's heart finally relaxed a little.
"And so far, the progress of the cell growth is also very optimistic. With Emily's efforts, I believe she will get better soon. Master Qin, please don't worry too much." Fred added.
"Alright, how did she call me from the ward? Isn't it a completely sterile room? How could she make a phone call?" Jason asked in confusion.
To tell the truth, Jason's heart almost jumped out of his throat when he saw the caller ID showing Emily's number.
He still thought that Emily was in the worst situation that Fred mentioned earlier.
This call was so sudden and it had come directly from Emily's phone. This caused Jason to think of the worst situation immediately, but luckily it was just a false alarm. It was lucky!
"Yes, this is a communication device in the sterile ward of the research base. There is a monitoring room here, which can detect and receive any sound or heat fluctuations in the ward at any time. We called you in this monitoring room. Emily just needs to whisper from the hospital bed, and you can hear everything." Fred explained.
Technology was so advanced...
Jason nodded and asked, "When can I see her?" "Well... I'm afraid you'll have to wait until the cells are cultivated and implanted. After a
period of observation, after we confirm that she doesn't need to continue to be cared for in the sterile ward, then you can visit her." Fred said.
"Sure, thank you for your work."
After Jason finished speaking, he was about to hang up the phone.
"Wait a minute, Master Qin!"
Fred's urgent voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
"What's wrong?"
"Well, I didn't want to ask you this at first, but this matter is related to your reputation. So I still wanted to check. You went to Bloom Revolving Restaurant last night, didn't you?" There was hesitation in Fred's tone, and he sounded a little timid.
"The Bloom Revolving Restaurant?" Jason frowned. "I didn't go. What's wrong?"
"Oh, it's good that you didn't go. I just heard from a few friends that William Chan had thrown a party for his wife's birthday at Bloom Revolving Restaurant yesterday. It seemed that he also mentioned your name. So I wanted to check. It's fine if you didn't go."
Obviously, there was relief in Fred's reply. He also felt that with Jason's character, he would
not get involved in the feud of these big families so soon. Although the Shen family was not afraid of them, it was better to avoid more trouble. Fred was also thinking for Jason's wellbeing.
"Yes, I didn't go to the Bloom Revolving restaurant. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. I have to go out," Jason said.
"Okay, sorry to disturb you, Master Qin."
After hanging up the phone, Jason sat on the bed and thought for a while.
He didn't have to worry about Emily for the time being. After all, everything was developing well. However, there was obviously a hidden meaning behind Fred's words. What did it have to do with him if he didn't go to the Bloom Revolving restaurant? How did he know that Jason might be there?
It was not that he couldn't feel it. William must have guessed that there might be some kind of relationship between him and the Shen family, so he tried his best to suck up to him. William even didn't hesitate to offer his precious daughter, so there would be some sort of relationship between them and the Shen family.
After all, William, the richest man, could only be regarded as a local tyrant in front of the Shen Family at most. He was not worth
mentioning at all.
That's why he didn't want to expose his identity.
He was afraid that he would encounter trouble like this.
However, he didn't expect that William still had something on him. He didn't attend the birthday party, but he could still be brought up. Morever, Fred, who was faraway in Tokyo, could hear about this. Jason was sure that David must have heard of this news.
