Chapter 592: No One Was Present to Care for Her

She had contracted such a serious illness but not a single family or friend was by her side.

He Xiyan thanked the doctor.

Then, she took her handbag and used the wall as support as she walked painfully toward the main hall of the hospital. She paid her bills and spent another few minutes walking to the nearby pharmacy to collect her medication.

Her phone was in her handbag but she had turned it off and had no intention of using her phone.

This was not the first time she had contracted such an illness. She had been admitted to hospital four years ago for the same condition. Her condition had flared up while she was at work and her colleague had sent her to the hospital, helped out with the admission procedures, looked after her, and helped her collect her medication. Then, Wu Xiaomin came over to the hospital and cared for her when she was admitted for three days.

This time, she was all alone and she guessed that if she ever fell sick again, she would still have to face it alone.

After she ate the pain relief medication that her doctor her prescribed, she sat in the main hall for several minutes until she felt her pain ease up. Then, she headed toward the admissions department and completed the hospital admission procedures. This time, she merely selected an ordinary single ward since she was all alone, so it didn’t matter which room she was warded at.

She would probably have to be admitted for around three days as well.

“Miss He, have you got any family with you?” the nurse who was supposed to administer her injection asked in surprise when she saw that there was only one patient in the ward.

He Xiyan smiled awkwardly and her smile seemed force due to the pain she was currently feeling.

“They aren’t able to make it. Could I trouble you to hire a nursing aide for me?” she didn’t know who else to call for since she didn’t want anyone to find out that she was ill.

“Sure. Please remember to press the button when you see that this bottle is about to run out. Try not to fall asleep in the meantime,” the nurse reminded her before she left. She still had many patients to attend to and could not stay by He Xiyan’s side.

He Xiyan was left all alone in her ward after the nurse left. She lay on the white hospital bed and stared up at the ceiling.

After so many years, she felt the same loneliness and helplessness that she had first felt when she lost her parents. Thankfully, she no longer lacked money. During her student days, she was so poor that she didn’t dare visit the doctor whenever she fell sick and could only try to bear the pain, or buy some cheap medication because she didn’t even have enough money to survive on back then.

——

At the castle.

Xi Xi was very active after she had her milk. She kicked her tiny feet and babbled unintelligibly, as though she was speaking.

She seemed to recognize her grandmother and would often smile widely at her grandmother.

Xia Jingshu held her granddaughter tightly and pinched her soft cheeks. Her granddaughter looked a lot like her.

She had come to the castle this time hoping to bring her granddaughter to the Qin Garden. During the week that they went on holiday, she had been the one caring for Xi Xi, so both Ye Snr. and herself missed Xi Xi’s presence terribly upon their return.

“Ah Hao, I’d like to bring Xi Xi with me to Qin Garden for a while, and I’ll also bring the nursemaid along. Don’t think too much into this. He Xiyan is probably only doing this in a fit of anger and would return in a few days.”

Xia Jingshu let out a heavy sigh. Frankly, she disapproved of her daughter-in-law’s actions but did not verbalize them.

This was something that she only discovered after interacting more with her daughter-in-law. If she had known that He Xiyan had such a terrible character two years ago, she would have never approved of this match.
