Wooing my Bodyguard Wife-Chapter 329 Revival

Back at the hospital, a pair of weary eyelashes fluttered as though they sensed a disturbance in the force.

"Sir? Sir? Can you hear me?" A nurse called out gently. Her voice reminded him of small waves at the beach. He hadn't been to the beach in decades.

"Can you open your eyes, Sir?"

Sun Haowei wanted to, but his eyelids suddenly felt too heavy. His entire body felt that it was covered by a weighted blanket, threatening to pull him back into slumber. Even his mind was just filled with white noise, but he refused to succumb to the sensation. He was Sun Haowei, and he was stronger than this!

He twitched his fingers, a most familiar action from his years of beckoning servants. He needed someone to help him open his eyes. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

He heard a hastily stifled gasp. Good. It seemed that no matter where he was, he was still given the respect he was due!

"Oh my god he's awake! Doctor! Doctor! Please come quickly!"

He heard more hurried footsteps, and someone pried his eye open and flashed a bright light into his eye. He winced, wanting to snarl at the disrespect.

"Oh good, you're conscious." The man said with barely concealed relief. "Do you remember anything, Old Master Sun?"

"..." Sun Haowei could only let out a wordless croak in reply. "W- wa - "

"Get him water," the doctor ordered and the nurses quickly helped him sit up. Sun Haowei's head spun, but at least the strange cottony fog in his brain was beginning to dissipate. He greedily drank from the offered paper cup, but his hands were still feeling too weak to hold it. Water dribbled down his chin, and one of the nurses hurriedly wiped his chin dry.

Sun Haowei growled. He hated his own weakness!

"Are you feeling better now?" The doctor asked. "Do you recognise me?"

"Doctor Xu?" He croaked out weakly. "What happened?" f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

"You had a heart attack and got hospitalised." Doctor Xu said matter-of-factly. "If not for the trace amounts of aspirin in your body, and how someone tried to keep you breathing via mouth-to-mouth, you would have been dead by the time you arrived in this hospital room.

"In fact, you should thank your lucky stars that someone knew what to do!"

"I…" Sun Haowei choked, sending everyone into a worried frenzy. It wasn't because his heart was failing, or anything like that. His brain had helpfully recalled what happened before his heart gave up.

His stupid younger son had brought that woman, that cursed daughter of his enemies, right in front of him and declared in no uncertain terms that she was his future wife! He spat at her!

"Who saved me?" Sun Haowei asked. He was going to reward them for their quick action!

"According to your oldest son, he did." Doctor Xu said, a strange expression crossing his face.

"He did?" Sun Haowei repeated, disbelieving. But his heart was heartened to know that his oldest son cared enough for him to keep him alive, despite wanting his inheritance.

"That's what he said. He'll be glad to know you're alright. He was very worried about you." Doctor Xu said. Sun Haowei let out a tired hum in reply, but there was a nagging sense of doubt nibbling at the back of his head. His intuition told him there was something he was missing.

"I see." Sun Haowei said, resting on the bed. "In that case, let him worry a while longer. I've been wanting a vacation for years."

"Excuse me?" Doctor Xu asked, his eyes wide with confusion.

"Don't tell him I'm awake. None of you." Sun Haowei's gaze swept over everyone in the room, from nurses to bodyguards and finally back to Doctor Xu.

"...Alright." Doctor Xu agreed, internally sweat dropping. What was his VIP patient up to now? Was this his attempt at trying out retirement?

"Leave, I want to rest." Sun Haowei declared with no room for disagreement. Doctor Xu could only sigh and let him know that he would conduct a follow-up checkup for him tomorrow, entirely in secret of course.

When the door finally shut, Sun Haowei turned to the bodyguard next to him.

"You were on duty when I had the heart attack?"

"Yes Sir." The man nodded nervously.

"So you saw everything?"

"Yes Sir," the man nodded again.

"Then tell me. Did my son really save me?" Sun Haowei asked, watching the guard carefully for signs of lying - and there it was, the quickened breathing, the shaky pupils, and the way his tongue licked his suddenly dry lips. His Adam's apple bobbed frantically.

"I… yes. Yes he did." The man said firmly. "He is a very filial son.

Sun Haowei let out a mirthless chuckle, nearly wheezing in amusement. It caused goosebumps to form on the arms of all his guards.

"A filial son… is that what they're calling it now?" Sun Haowei asked rhetorically, staring at the blank ceiling. He didn't need the guard to admit to his lies - let them keep their illusions. Besides, if he pushed them for an answer, surely one of them would report the truth to his oldest son, assuming they haven't already.

Perhaps Jingwei was the one that saved him, and his older brother took credit for the work. Knowing Jingwei's attitude, he'd be feeling too guilty for causing his heart attack. Maybe he might even break up with that woman!

If he did, Sun Haowei was willing to give him half the company. His younger son saved his life!

"Lend me a phone." Sun Haowei demanded. He needed to contact Captain Mu to catch up on things.

"Sir, aren't you supposed to be unconscious?" Another guard asked and immediately looked down when Sun Haowei shot him a piercing glare.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing Sir," the man said meekly to the floor. A phone was handed to him immediately and Sun Haowei clicked on Captain Mu's number, only to find that the line was busy.

He scowled in disgust. What could he possibly be busy with?
