3054 The Most Scary Thing
The moment she ran, Li Jinnian and Xia Jinyuan jogged after her as well. In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of Mr. Fu.
When Ye Jian saw Mr. Fu, she was still a little out of breath. Before she adjusted her breathing, she asked anxiously, “How’s Grandpa? Dad, did the doctor say anything? When did he enter the operating room? Why isn’t it over yet? Did the doctor come out to tell you anything?”
She asked a series of questions without stopping.
Mr. Fu saw his daughter and his nephew, Li Jinnian. At the same time, he saw his daughter’s captain. He didn’t have much time to think about why his daughter’s captain came over and held Ye Jian’s hand. Mr. Fu hurriedly replied, “It’s alright, it’s alright. Everything is alright. Grandpa is old and needs to get steel rods implanted, so the surgery might take a longer time.
“Don’t be anxious. It’s nothing.” His daughter’s face was as pale as paper. It could be seen how worried she was about Old Master.
She had just returned to the Fu family for less than a year and was already so concerned about Old Master Fu. It could be seen that although they hadn’t seen each other for nearly 20 years, it didn’t stop them from getting closer.
Li Jinnian, who was standing at the side, heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. However, the tightness in his chest hadn’t dissipated.
The old master was old and needed to be implanted with steel rods. If the surgery was prolonged, there would be many uncertain factors. It was not the time to feel at ease. It could only be said that the current situation was still good.
“That’s good. That’s good…” Ye Jian muttered. Even her face had turned red.
During the more than an hour drive from the military headquarters to the general military hospital, Ye Jian was suffering in her heart. She was afraid that something would happen to her grandpa. She was so afraid that her hands and feet were trembling in the car. Her fingers were so cold that it was a problem for her to curl them up.
She had been looking forward to having a family for two lifetimes. Now, she finally had it. She was afraid that before she could be filial and let her grandpa enjoy his family life again… he would leave her forever like Grandpa Gen.
She was so afraid of that happening.
Now that she heard that everything was alright, Ye Jian couldn’t help but close her eyes and breathe heavily. The gloominess in her heart eased a little.
Commander Xia heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that she was fine.
“Little Six, bring Little Ye over.” Commander Xia spoke and gestured for Xia Jinyuan to help Ye Jian sit down first. Her knees were injured. The pain had gotten better, but she still had to be careful.
Commander Xia didn’t mention Ye Jian’s ailment. He was afraid that Mr. Fu would be worried again, so he only let his son hold onto her first. Then, he said to Li Jinnian, “Hurry up and help your uncle sit for a while. I don’t know how long he’s been standing.”
With the commander-in-chief around, Mr. Fu didn’t have to worry much. He would arrange everything like a family member.
After sitting down, Mr. Fu came back to his senses and apologized to Commander Xia. “Thank you for going through all this trouble tonight. You even sent the two of them over personally. When I saw the two of them, I finally heaved a sigh of relief.”
His nephew was beside his daughter too. When Old Master woke up and saw them, he would be happy.
Commander Xia waved his hand and sat down. “You’re welcome. Your old man and my old man are best friends. You don’t have to be polite with me.”
“I got my Little Six to come over too. Engineer Fu, if you need anything, just tell him. There’s no need to stand on ceremony.” The Xia family must help with their future in-laws’ family matters!
Xia Jinyuan, who had sat down with Ye Jian, really admired his old man for getting him to come here!
