Chapter 1780: Unlucky Heiress (48)

It took the Tang family half a day to reach the hospital where Tang Yi had been admitted.

They were informed that she was no longer in danger. She was still unconscious but should wake up soon.

Only then did the Tang family learn what had actually happened.

It wasn't a car accident.

While Tang Yi and her friends had been enjoying some amusement rides, an accident had occurred.

The girls who had been traveling with her suffered only minor scrapes.

Tang Yi, however, had been struck directly by a loose part that had fallen from above.

Fortunately, the component wasn't very large, nor had it fallen from a great height. Otherwise, Tang Yi might have died on the spot.

According to the surveillance footage, Tang Yi had noticed something was wrong and had instinctively moved slightly to the side.

Unfortunately, she had been too late.

Watching the footage of Tang Yi being struck on the head, Tang Guo subconsciously glanced at Tang Kui.

Unexpectedly, he was looking at her as well.

After exchanging a brief look, both withdrew their gazes.

That single glance had conveyed only one message between them—

The spot where Tang Yi had been hit was exactly the same as Xu Nini's.

The doctors said she would wake up soon, but somehow, neither of them believed it would be that easy.

The Tang couple, however, were worried sick.

As for these strange and mysterious matters, Tang Guo and Tang Kui had no intention of mentioning them.

Even if they did, the couple probably wouldn't believe them.

After all, Tang Yi had been their daughter for over ten years. Feelings had naturally developed.

They knew nothing.

Their kindness was genuine.

Tang Guo had never intended to reveal the cruel truth of the past to them.

As for Tang Yi's true nature, it would gradually reveal itself.

Her actions would inevitably hurt them.

Some things simply had to be experienced.

As Tang Guo and Tang Kui had expected, a week later, Tang Yi still showed no signs of waking up.

Every day, the Tang couple questioned the doctors.

The doctors repeatedly examined her and found nothing wrong.

Even they found it strange that Tang Yi remained unconscious.

Meanwhile, Xu Nini had already been discharged from the hospital, while Tang Yi's condition remained unchanged.

Initially, Xu Nini had intended to ask Tang Guo and Tang Kui why they had lied in order to help her.

Later, she abandoned the idea.

Perhaps they simply wanted to do a good deed.

If she questioned them, they might hesitate to help others in the future.

So she quietly kept their contact information.

Upon leaving the hospital, she called each of them to express her gratitude.

As for anything else, there was nothing she could do.

Perhaps one day, they might need her help instead.

She would simply remember this favor.

Afterward, Xu Nini returned to her usual self.

She first arranged her plans to repeat her studies and then resumed tutoring to earn money.

She was lively and energetic every day, hardly looking like someone who had just been discharged from the hospital.

More than two months later, Tang Yi finally woke up.

When she learned she had been unconscious for so long, she found it unbelievable.

She only remembered something falling and striking her, after which she had quickly lost consciousness.

By then, university freshmen had already begun military training.

Although Tang Yi had awakened, after being unconscious for over two months, her body had yet to fully recover.

Worse still, an ugly scar remained on the top of her head.

She couldn't bear to show herself to others.

The hair around the scar grew very slowly.

Compared with the long, black hair surrounding it, the area on the top of her head—about half the size of a fist—was covered with a hideous scar.

It was difficult for her to accept.

And it was the height of summer.

Unlike winter, she couldn't simply wear a hat indoors to hide it.
