Especially when she saw Ji Yuanyuan, her gaze paused for a long time.
Women had some understanding of dressing.
Although she was not a wealthy lady who was well-versed in luxury brands, Ji Yuanyuan’s clothes were definitely not cheap.
The old man’s ex-wife was rich.
At the very least, they are richer than their family.
“Jianguo, so this is the son you’ve been talking about. He looks exactly like you when you were young.” The woman smiled.
She took the opportunity to step forward and support Ji Jianguo.
Seeing that no one had any reaction, she pretended to touch the corner of her eyes. “You guys don’t know how much Jianguo has missed you all these years. He’s been talking about your photos whenever he’s free. His illness came about because he missed you guys.”
She circled around the crowd again, trying to identify the others.
When she saw Qin Mucheng, she asked uncertainly, “You’re Zi’ang?”
“You must be Yuanyuan.” She then looked at Ji Yuanyuan.
“If he’s always looking at our photos,” Ji Yuanyuan sneered. “How could you be mistaken?”
Although their looks would change when they grew up, Qin Mucheng was very different from Ji Zi’ang. Those who had seen photos of Ji Zi’ang when he was young would definitely not recognize Qin Mucheng as him.
The woman was about to say something when the elevator behind her reached the first floor.
“The elevator is here. Aren’t you guys going up?” Qin Xiaomin asked coldly.
“You guys go first, you guys go first,” the woman said with a smile.
As she spoke, she pulled Ji Jianguo aside to make way for the elevator.
Qin Xiaomin was the first to enter the elevator.
The others also went up one after another.
Ji Jianguo’s gaze was fixed on Ji Zixuan until the elevator doors closed.
Tangtang was puzzled by his burning gaze. “Why did that grandpa keep staring at Uncle?”
No one spoke in the elevator.
Tangtang looked at Ji Yuanyuan in confusion. “Mom…”
Ji Yuanyuan coaxed her. “Mommy doesn’t know either. Remember to call Great-Grandma later, understand?”
Ji Jianguo was just a stranger to Tangtang.
Therefore, she did not continue to dwell on the topic just now. She followed Ji Yuanyuan’s words. “I know. I have to call her great-grandma. Grandma said so.”
Then, the elevator went silent all the way to the fifth floor.
Downstairs, the woman saw that the number on the elevator panel had stopped at five. She smiled. “They’re on the fifth floor.”
Ji Jianguo stared at the number and gasped.
The woman turned her head and looked at Ji Jianguo. Her tone was a little sarcastic. “I didn’t expect this. You’re useless, but your son and daughter look quite rich. It seems that your ex-wife is quite capable.”
Ji Jianguo coughed violently.
“No matter what, you’re their father. They won’t just watch you die, right?” the woman said.
When they arrived at the ICU, they could see through the gla.s.s that Liu Guihua had already opened her eyes.
There were a few doctors in sterile gowns who were examining her.
“What happened?” Qin Xiaomin asked anxiously as she tugged at Li Yong’s sleeve.
“No,” Li Yong shook his head. “The doctors just got inside for a check-up. They haven’t come out yet.”
Li Xu and Li Nian squeezed in front while Ji Yuanyuan could only stand at the back.
The front was so crowded that she couldn’t see anything.
This made Tangtang anxious. She hugged Ji Yuanyuan’s neck and said, “Mommy, let Daddy hug me. I can’t see anything.”
Ji Yuanyuan was anxious and was not in the mood to explain anything to Tangtang. She could only give Tangtang to Qin Mucheng.
Qin Mucheng was taller than Ji Yuanyuan. Tangtang could vaguely see the scene inside as he carried her.
However, she shrank her neck in fear after just one glance.
“Is that Great-grandma lying down?” she whispered into Qin Mucheng’s ear. “Why are there so many tubes on her?”
“Yes, that’s Great-Grandma. The tube was inserted because Great-Grandma was sick.”
Tangtang’s eyes widened. She seemed to have thought of something and subconsciously shrank her neck.
At this moment, the doctor came out.
The whole family surrounded him.
“Doctor, how’s my grandmother? When can she come out of the ICU?” Before the adults could speak, Li Nian asked anxiously.
The doctor pulled off the mask on his face and smiled. “The old man’s body is getting better. Let her stay in the ICU for observation for one night. If there are no problems tomorrow, she can be transferred from the ICU to the general ward.”
Hearing the doctor’s words, everyone present heaved a sigh of relief.
Inside the ICU, a nurse was left to deal with the aftermath.
The nurse pointed outside, and Liu Guihua turned her head with difficulty.
She looked outside, from Li Lei and Li Yong to Li Xu and Li Miao, then to Li Xiang and Li Nian…
Her eyes gradually reddened as she looked down.
After the old lady finished reading, Li Xu quickly made way for her. She pulled Qin Mucheng, who was carrying Tangtang, over. “Tangtang, come over quickly. Call Great-Grandma.”
Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan stood in front of the gla.s.s.
“Can Great-Grandma hear me through the gla.s.s?” Tangtang asked curiously.
“Great-Grandma can hear you. Even if she can’t hear you, she can still see your mouth moving,” Qin Mucheng coaxed her.
Tangtang blinked her eyes and pounced forward. Her entire body fell onto the gla.s.s.
She mouthed exaggeratedly, “Great Grand Ma!”
Through the oxygen mask, one could see Liu Guihua’s lips gradually curling up.
Qin Mucheng held Tangtang’s arm. Just as he was about to help her up, Tang Tang started talking again. “You- must- get- well- quickly!”
She enunciated each word clearly. She didn’t know if Liu Guihua heard her.
Anyway, after Tangtang finished speaking, Liu Guihua slowly nodded.
The group of people stayed outside the ICU for about an hour.
Since Liu Guihua had woken up, the burden in everyone’s hearts had been lifted. They could go home and have a good sleep.
Just like before, the four siblings of the Li family remained in the hospital.
The group of people went downstairs with relaxed expressions.
To everyone’s surprise, Ji Jianguo was still waiting downstairs.
He was sitting on the chair opposite the elevator.
He was facing the elevator so he would be able to see anyone coming down.
Ji Zixuan was walking at the front. His smiling face stiffened when the elevator doors opened.
He was silent for two seconds before lowering his head. He got off the elevator and turned around to walk out.
Behind him, Ji Jianguo shouted anxiously, “Zixuan… I’m Daddy…”
He did not stop.
“Zixuan, wait…” Ji Jianguo hurriedly caught up.
His movements were originally inconvenient, and he didn’t know what he stepped on, but he fell to the ground with a thud.
Ji Zixuan, who was in the front, stopped in his tracks..
