“I’m sorry to disturb you so late at night,” Yun Xi said apologetically.
“It’s fine, Producer Yun. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first!”
“Alright.” After saying that, Yun Xi hung up the phone.
After settling everything, Yun Xi heaved a long sigh of relief and turned to enter the ward.
When Yun Xi opened her eyes in the morning, she felt that her back was aching, especially her arms. When she woke up, she realized that she had fallen asleep with her head on the railing by the bed.
Yun Xi turned her head to look at the sofa and realized that Zhou Lin had actually disappeared. After experiencing the fear and suffocation of not being able to find Zhou Lin yesterday, Yun Xi did not even have the time to look at Old Master Zhou on the bed before she walked out of the ward.
“Zhou Lin! Zhou Lin!” Yun Xi tried to suppress her voice. However, his eyes were filled with worry and fear.
“What’s wrong, Xixi? I’m here!” Not far away, a familiar and reassuring voice came.
At this time, the sky was just starting to brighten. Zhou Lin was standing at the end of the corridor. If one did not look carefully, one would not be able to see the person standing there. The moment Yun Xi heard the sound, she hurriedly ran over, looking at Zhou Lin with a face full of panic.
Zhou Lin looked at Yun Xi, whose face was flushed and even had sweat on her forehead. He thought that something had happened to her and hurriedly asked worriedly, “Xixi, what’s wrong? Are you not feeling well? Why are you sweating so much?”
Before Zhou Lin could finish his words, Yun Xi hugged him tightly. She hugged him tighter and tighter, as if the man in front of her would disappear the moment she let go.
“I thought I couldn’t contact you again like yesterday. I was so worried. I was so afraid of the feeling of waking up and finding you not by my side!” After saying that, Yun Xi buried her head in Zhou Lin’s neck and started crying.
Zhou Lin realized that his actions yesterday might have cast a shadow on Yun Xi, so he started to apologize.
“I’m sorry, Xixi. I won’t do it again.” After saying that, he hugged Yunxi tightly as if they wanted to embrace each other.
After a long time, Yun Xi released Zhou Lin’s hand and asked with a puzzled face, “What did you do this morning?”
I went to buy you breakfast. I thought you must be tired yesterday, and you accompanied me until midnight. You must be hungry. Zhou Lin said with a smile.
“So it’s like this! Then remember to leave me a note next time, so I don’t have to worry for nothing!” Yun Xi pouted.
“Alright, I got it.” Zhou Lin smiled indulgently and agreed to Yun Xi’s request.
“Then let’s go in and eat. It’s a little cold outside. It’ll be bad if we catch a cold,” Yun Xi said as she pulled Zhou Lin into the room.
By the time the two finished breakfast, the Zhou family had arrived at the hospital.
Yun Xi, it must have been hard on you last night. Lin Yu said.
“This is what I should do. It’s not hard,” Yun Xi replied to Lin Yu.
“Zhou Lin, you guys haven’t had breakfast yet, right? I brought some from home for you. It’s enough for you two,” Qian Yun said as she handed the lunchbox to Zhou Lin.
When Yun Xi heard Qian Yun’s words, she could not believe her ears. She had never expected Qian Yun to bring her breakfast!
“Sister-in-law, I’ll have to trouble you.” Zhou Lin thought that he could not reject Qian Yun’s good intentions. Furthermore, this was also a crucial step to ease the relationship between Yun Xi and Qian Yun. Thus, he reached out and took the lunch box from Qian Yun’s hands.
Before Yun Xi could react, Zhou Lin handed the lunchbox to her and gave Yun Xi a look. Yun Xi also instantly understood Zhou Lin’s intentions. She took the lunch box and said to Qian Yun, “Thank you. Sorry for the trouble.”
Qian Yun did not say anything else and just smiled at Yun Xi.
Not long after, Yun Shan, Chen Li, and Yun Yang also rushed to the hospital. Chen Li’s face was filled with worry as she looked at the old man on the bed, tears welling up in her eyes. “Sigh, how could the in-laws fall sick just like that!” She said as she wiped her tears.
When Yun Yang saw that his mother was losing control of her emotions, he quickly went up to calm her down.
“Mom, don’t cry. The doctor hasn’t said anything yet. Maybe Grandpa Zhou just has a common cold,” Yun Yang said hurriedly.
Although Yun Shan did not say anything, it was not difficult to see his sadness and heartache from his expression. The Old Master was already so old, yet he still had to suffer from such an illness. Anyone would feel heartache.
