You Are The Apple of My Eyes
Chapter 476 Nina Hasn't Woken Up

At night, the Nangong family sent Jett and a few other people to visit Nina and her children. They were inevitably disappointed when they couldn't see the children. For Bruce and Anne's sake, they had to show

some concern for Nina before they left though.

Bruce and Anne left after them as well. They still had many things to deal with.

Only the four of them were left in the ward now.

"It's been a few hours. Has Nina not woken up yet?" Vicente walked to the bedside and was about to sit down.

John stretched out his hand and pulled the chair back.

"Watch out!" Noah urged.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Vicente fell to the floor with her feet swinging into the air. "Ah!" she screamed.

Leon's face twisted as he sucked in a sharp breath, wincing.

"John! What's wrong with you?" Vicente raised her head ferociously, scouring at the nonchalant man that just took her chair away carelessly. She raised her foot and kicked the chair leg.

However, with the sheer size of John, Vicente couldn't even move him an inch. What actually happened was that she just pushed herself across the floor.

She rubbed her battered body, feeling it already starting to swell.

"Damn it!" For the first time in Vicente's life, she swore in front of outsiders.

Leon was stunned for a moment, but then chuckled.

He thought that Vicente might not be able to ever get the better of John with how tricky he was.

'If John doesn't mind Nina having children with another man, maybe he and Nina will end up getting back together,' he thought.

"Leon!" Vicente turned to glare at him.

"Hmm." Leon closed his mouth and tried to hide his smile.

Vicente slowly stood up. Noah walked over and let her use his arm to prop herself up as she got off the floor.

Through the thick clothes, Vicente still felt Noah's muscular arm and the warmth from his skin.

She suddenly recalled the memory of him changing in front of her. Her ears turned red as she let go of his arm.

"Thank you." Her nose became beet red as she turned around, stumbling into Leon.

"Do you have a nosebleed?" Leon exclaimed in surprise. It was the first time that he'd seen someone have such a minor fall but still end up with blood running out of their nose. Noah turned to look at Vicente, his clear eyes blinking.

"You..."

"It's okay. I'll handle it." After saying that, Vicente seemed to rush out of the room.

'That's so embarrassing!

Noah must know what's going on.

I have to keep my distance from Noah as much as possible from now on.'

Vicente had left for a couple hours. When she got back, it was nine o'clock at night. Considering that they hadn't had dinner yet, she asked someone to bring food for them. The servant pushed the dining trolley over and set their dinner out neatly.

There were only three pairs of chopsticks though.

Vicente deliberately didn't cater anything for John. But he didn't care, nor was he in the mood to eat. He sat on the edge of the bed and waited for Nina to wake up.

As time passed, they finished their dinner and set up the beds in the spacious ward, closing the curtains to separate their own spaces.

By the time they had finished with all their activities, it was already eleven o'clock.

But Nina still hadn't woken up yet. They all seemed to grow restless of just waiting patiently.

Leon couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Why hasn't she woken up yet? I'll call the doctor."

"I'll go with you." Vicente followed Leon out.

The doctor soon entered the ward.

She did a preliminary examination and once she finished, her face seemed to scrunch up. "That's strange." "What's wrong?" they asked in unison.

John let go of Nina's hand and stood up to look at the doctor. His deep eyes sent shivers down her spine.

The doctor answered in a hurry, "Nothing. Her body temperature and her heart rate are all normal. There is nothing seriously wrong. She just seems to be asleep."

Hearing this, they all heaved a sigh of relief.

Leon was still a little uneasy. "What did you want to say just now?"

"All indexes are normal, but she just hasn't woken up yet. She is not in a deep sleep, but rather in a fast sleep period of sorts..." The doctor stopped and turned to them. "Don't disturb her sleep. If she doesn't wake up tomorrow morning, or she seems to be reacting abnormally, tell us as soon as possible."

The doctor hurriedly slipped out of the room.

John sat back down, trying not to disturb Nina anymore. He didn't even want to hold her hand any longer.

He just keenly watched her, trying to keep an eye out for any abnormal reactions.

"Fast sleep period?" Leon asked in confusion.

Noah frowned and said, "Nini may be dreaming. Has she had any nightmares?"

Vicente shook her head and said, "No. Not in the past half a year."

Then they looked towards John.

"Yes." At that moment, John leaned forward slightly, with his elbows resting on his knees. He gently rubbed his palms and lowered his eyes. "Albert imprisoned us in his underground lab. After we escaped, she often had nightmares and dreamed that she couldn't find me or recognize me."

As he spoke, his voice softened. His long lashes cast shadows over his eyes as they trembled while he recalled these harrowing events.

In Nina's dream, the world seemed to be shrouded by lifeless shadows.

Two lush and straight banyan trees looked at each other across a river. The cloudy sky was as dark as a cavern into the earth. Nina was standing under one of the banyan trees, surrounded by a suffocating fog.

Across the river, there was a figure standing under the other tree.

Nina knew who the man on the other side was. She kept calling out the name "John," but no matter how hard she tried, the word never came out.

She roared with all her might till her face turned red. All she could muster was a slight squeal that was smothered by the sound of the flowing river. After a long time, a gust of wind slightly blew the mist away. Nina finally saw the figure. He was tall, with a neat crew cut, and a black suit. His face was still blurry.

But she knew he was her husband.

Nina jumped into the river excitedly. Her body was soaked, but when she stood up, she realized the water only reached her knees. She walked all the way through the river.

When she approached the bank, she suddenly noticed two men standing under the banyan tree. Nina didn't recognize the other man. Slowly, more and more people started appearing by the river.

Nina stopped dead in her tracks.

Holding the black umbrella, Albert put his arm around Kristina's waist and opened his mouth, seeming to say something to her. However, Nina only heard James say "My great pleasure." James was putting the engagement ring on Emma's finger.

Michelle stood still, happily watching this unfold, occasionally scooping a bite of strawberry cake into her mouth.

Henry and Adrian stood together and looked away. They secretly held each other, trying not to draw too much attention to themselves.

The whole Shi family and everyone that Nina had met in Lexingport City appeared before her.

She stood in the middle of the river and looked at these people. A gust of wind blew, and everyone disappeared like dust.

Nina opened her mouth in horror, but still couldn't make a sound.

She finally ran up to the tree. The moment she stepped on the bank, her memories were wiped clean.

Her mind went blank and her eyes glossed over.

A man came over and gently held her in his arms.

Nina finally came to her senses, feeling the warmth. Her tears wet the man's collar and she murmured, "Noah..."000
