Li Xu’s heart was in a mess. Naturally, she was not in the mood to explain anything to Tangtang.
She took a deep breath and looked out the window, trying hard to hold back the tears that were about to overflow from her eyes.
Her father had already left. If her mother was also…
Ji Yuanyuan could understand her feelings. She immediately said, “Be good,
Tangtang. We’re leaving now.”
Although Tangtang didn’t quite understand the way adults thought, she still nodded obediently.
Zhang Kun’s car and Qin Mucheng’s car got onto the highway one after the other.
This was Tangtang’s first time on the highway. She was so curious about everything outside the window.
Her face was almost pressed against the window as she stared at the scenery outside with her big eyes.
The highway from B City to S City had been repaired many times. The journey that originally took more than five hours now only took four hours.
They arrived at the hospital before eleven o’clock.
Li Yong and Qin Xiaomin were in the hospital.
Li Lei took care of her for the whole afternoon and went back to rest at night.
When he saw Li Xu, Li Yong seemed to have found his backbone. His eyes turned red and he said, “Big Sister.
Li Xu’s eyes were also red. She stretched out her hand and held Li Yong’s hand.
She asked, “What’s wrong with Mother? Why did she suddenly…
“It’s all my fault. I’ve been busy recently. The strawberries in the shed are all ripe. If I don’t pick them now, they’ll go bad. Didn’t it snow heavily two days ago? Our mother fell when she went to the toilet last night. She didn’t tell me. I only found out when I saw her hand bruise.
Li Yong’s tone was very annoyed. As he spoke, he lowered his head, not daring
to look Li Xu in the eye.
“When I found out about it, three or four days had already passed. Mother said that she felt well and did not feel uncomfortable, so I did not take it to heart.
Who knows…”
Li Yong could not continue.
Qin Xiaomin, who was beside her, sighed slightly. “Big Sister, it’s my fault. I didn’t take good care of Mother. The doctor said that Mother might have had an acute lung embolus due to her fall. This disease has symptoms before it acts up. If I’m more careful, I might be able to find out that something’s wrong with
Mother.”
“Alright, stop talking.” Li Xu held Qin Xiaomin’s hand. “You two are usually by Mother’s side, taking care of her and talking to her. You’re already much better
than Li Miao and me.”
Seeing that Li Xu was getting more and more upset, Ji Zixuan quickly went forward. “Grandma is still in the ICU. Now is not the time to talk about this. Sit down and wait for Grandma to come out.”
Tangtang was originally in Qin Mucheng’s arms. When she saw Li Xu’s red
eyes, she struggled. “Grandma, don’t cry…”
Qin Mucheng took a step forward. Tang Tang’s small hand was just about to touch Li Xu’s face.
She reached out her little hand and wiped Li Xu’s eyes. “If Grandma cries,
Tangtang will feel sorry for her.”
Li Xu forced a smile. “Grandma didn’t cry.”
She sat down on the chair, her thoughts in a mess.
Tangtang saw that Li Xu was still in low spirits and turned to look at Qin
Mucheng in confusion.
“Daddy…” Before she could finish, she yawned.
It was already past eleven o’clock. Normally, she would be asleep by ten o’clock
at most.
Qin Xiaomin was meticulous and noticed Tangtang yawning immediately.
She took out her keys from her pocket. “It’s getting late. The children are sleepy. Yuanyuan and Mucheng don’t have to stay here anymore. Hurry up and take the children home to rest.”
“But…” Ji Yuanyuan hesitated.
She was also very worried about her grandmother and wanted to stay here and guard her.
If Grandma woke up, she wanted to be the first to see her.
“Go back first. I’ll call you when Grandma wakes up.” Li Yong also advised. Then, he looked at Li Xu. “Big Sister, Brother-in-law, you guys should go back too. It must have been hard on the road. It’s useless to stay here. Someone will come to replace us tomorrow morning.”
Ji Yuanyuan took the key from Qin Xiaomin’s hands after some thought.
She pulled Tangtang and Qin Mucheng to a corner. “Tangtang, can you go back to Great-Grandma’s house with Daddy to sleep? Mommy wants to stay here and watch over Great-Grandma. If Great-Grandma wakes up and doesn’t see Mommy, she’ll feel bad.”
Tangtang was very understanding at such a young age.
She nodded. “Alright, I’ll be good.”
Qin Mucheng looked at his daughter and took the keys helplessly.
Although he really wanted to stay here and accompany Yuanyuan, it was obvious that the little fellow could not hold on any longer.
She could still be obedient and reasonable now, but he was afraid she would cause a ruckus later.
Everyone was already feeling very uncomfortable. If she made a fuss, everyone would probably be even more annoyed.
Therefore, Qin Mucheng could only bring the little fellow back now. “Call me if you need anything. I’ll come over when Tangtang wakes up tomorrow morning.” Qin Mucheng instructed in a whisper.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and kissed Tangtang on the cheek. “You can go back. Drive slowly.”
Qin Mucheng carried Tangtang and turned to leave.
Other than Qin Mucheng, Ji Zixuan and Zhang Kun were also persuaded to go back.
After Ji Yuanyuan sent Qin Mucheng off, he returned to the entrance of the ICU.
Everyone was surprised to see Ji Yuanyuan return.
“I asked Mucheng to bring Tangtang back to sleep. I’m more at ease staying here.” Ji Yuanyuan explained.
“Did Tangtang make a scene?” Qin Xiaomin asked with concern.
“No, she’s not that clingy.” Ji Yuanyuan shook her head. “She” often sleep with her grandparents at home.”
“That’s good.” Qin Xiaomin nodded.
Li Miao, who had not spoken much, held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand.
When Ji Yuanyuan sat down, she leaned over. “If you’re tired, lean on my shoulder and sleep for a while.”
Looking at Li Miao’s red eyes, Ji Yuanyuan patted her hand silently.
The lights in the ICU were on from n pm to 7 am.
Liu Guihua’s condition still did not improve.
Early in the morning, Li Lei, Qin Mucheng, Zhang Kun, and Ji Zixuan came over.
Tangtang was in Qin Mucheng’s arms. She was still sleeping on his shoulder.
Ji Zixuan and Zhang Kun were carrying some breakfast.
“You guys go back and rest for a while. I’ll stay here and watch.” Li Lei had become even more taciturn after not seeing him for a long time.
After saying this, he sat down on the chair and looked down at the ground. Li Lei had been working hard for the past few years since his divorce.
He looked much older and had a lot of white hair on his head.
Li Xu’s eyes reddened again when she saw her younger brother like this.
Zhang Kun and Ji Zixuan quickly divided the breakfast.
Li Xu silently finished her breakfast and took the lead to leave.
Seeing this, the rest of the people also left.
Everyone knew that Liu Guihua’s situation was not optimistic. This might be a tug-of-war.
There was no point in staying here. They had to take turns.
When they left, Ji Yuanyuan took Tangtang from Qin Mucheng’s arms. TangTang seemed to have felt her mother’s body temperature in her hazy state. She rubbed against Ji Yuanyuan’s collarbone like a kitten..
