Dongfang Liuyun smiled and nodded gratefully—
“Yes, I know. I won’t be stingy with asking. It’s his fortune to have known you guys. However, he’s always had a hard life. I can’t do anything for him when I want to share something with him. It’s my fault…”
Hearing that, Su Chen smiled. “Qi Lei didn’t marry you to do anything for him. You can be rest a.s.sured. Qi Lei has changed a lot in the past two years. He’s a good husband.”
“Thank you.”
Dongfang Liuyun did not know what to say.
“Is your father better?”
Su Chen did not forget to care about Dongfang Gan’s condition.
“His condition has stabilized and he should be able to wake up soon. I was just asking the doctor about his condition and then I met you guys,” Dongfang Liuyun replied.
“That’s good. Zitong has been running a fever for the past two days and the weather has turned cold. She can’t take any medicine or injections so she’s a little worried, so I accompanied her to take a look.”
At this moment, Su Chen’s sharp eyes were filled with worry.
“The temperature has changed a lot recently, and the weather’s been so gloomy. You have to be more careful. Alright, I’ll go back first. I’m worried that my dad will wake up later. Let’s talk again in a few days.”
Su Chen nodded. “Okay, you have to take care of yourself.”
He still expressed his concern.
Dongfang Liuyun thanked him and walked forward.
…
“Where’s Liuyun?”
When Ji Zitong came out of the consultation room, she saw Su Chen sitting on the bench and asked in surprise.
Su Chen quickly stood up and went forward to support her.
“She’s gone back. Her father needs to be looked after. What did the doctor say? What should we pay attention to?”
Su Chen looked at Ji Zitong nervously.
“It’s fine. Actually, we’re almost there. You’re the only one who insisted on coming over to take a look.”
Ji Zitong gave him a sideways glance.
As her belly slowly grew, he became nervous. He usually worked late or had a lot of social engagements, but he had been going to and from work on time these past few months. He pushed off social engagements whenever he could and spent most of his time at home with her. He was worried that she would be bored alone and even thought of ways to get her to go out for a walk. Ji Zitong had been living a happy life these days.
She did not expect Su Chen, who looked serious and decent, to be so attentive when it came to taking care of others.
“It’s a matter of health. You can’t slack off.” Su Chen responded as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders and walked forward.
“Do you like boys or girls? I was just about to ask the doctor about the gender of the baby.”
Ji Zitong thought for a moment and suddenly turned to look at him.
“No need to ask. It’ll be a surprise when we find out. It doesn’t matter if it’s a boy or a girl. As long as it’s ours, it’ll definitely be a good baby.”
Su Chen did like girls, but a boy did not seem too bad. Anyway, she gave birth to it, so he would definitely like it.
“We’ll be able to see it next year.”
Ji Zitong’s eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation.
Before this, her relationship with Su Chen had always been so calm. However, ever since she got pregnant, Su Chen had become more considerate and took good care of her. Furthermore, the two of them got along better, although it was not as pa.s.sionate as before, she was still very satisfied with the time they had spent together.
“Mmm,” Su Chen replied. Seeing the look of antic.i.p.ation in her eyes, he continued, “Your health has been poor for the past two days, so I’ll bring you to Meishan when you feel better after a few days of rest. I heard that the plum blossoms there are blooming quite well. City Z is not like the cities in the north, but it can still catch up to the time when the cold plum blossoms are blooming.”
Su Chen was not too romantic. The only thing he could think of was to bring her out to relax.
“Aren’t you busy these days? It’s the end of the year.” Ji Zitong asked.
Su Chen tightened his grip on her shoulder and glanced at her, “I’m making time. I’ll have to work overtime in a few days. I have a lot of things to deal with at the end of the year. I might have to make a trip to City C next week. I’ll be busy for a day or two. I’m afraid that you’ll feel stifled at home, so I’ll let you have some fun.”
“Zimo’s wedding is coming up soon. You…”
“Don’t worry, I can make it back in time. If you’re bored, you can go find Xiaye. As for Liuyun, there’s nothing we can do, but it’s good to check in on them once in a while.”
Su Chen suddenly thought of Dongfang Liuyun.
“Mmm, that’s right. It hasn’t been easy for the two of them.”
Ji Zitong naturally knew about Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun’s situation.
“What would easy look like? Qi Lei didn’t receive much favor from the heavens.”
“Do you think he’s…”
“Don’t make wild guesses!”
Before Ji Zitong could finish her sentence, Su Chen had already seriously interrupted her. His sharp gaze swept across her, and Ji Zitong could see a hint of worry in it.
She felt a little wronged, but Ji Zitong also knew that she had said something that she shouldn’t have said.
“I… I just…”
“Okay, forget it, it’s my bad att.i.tude! I’ll send you back first. I have a meeting at the headquarters later.”
Su Chen eased up a little and felt a little apologetic.
“Oh, okay. Everyone will be fine.”
“Let’s go!”
…
“Miss Dongfang, President Gan is awake!”
Dongfang Liuyun had just returned to the door of the ward when he saw the special nurse with a happy expression.
“The doctor has come over to check on him and said that he is fine. However, his body is still very weak and he needs to rest for a long time.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s tensed little face eased up a little when she heard this. She quickly quickened her pace and walked into the ward.
In the ward, Dongfang Gan was lying against the headboard of the bed. He looked very weak and very quiet. A special nurse was pouring water for him, but he did not react.
“Father… you’re awake!”
Dongfang Liuyun hurriedly went over, and her heart suddenly felt a little sour.
“Liuyun!”
Hearing his daughter’s voice, Dongfang Gan finally recovered from his silence. He raised his gaze and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw the exhausted Dongfang Liuyun.
“It’s good that you’re awake. We were all worried! How are you feeling now? Are you feeling unwell?”
Dongfang Liuyun held Dongfang Gan’s large hands and asked with concern.
“I’m fine. Where’s Qi Lei? Is there any news about Qi Lei?”
Dongfang Gan’s eyes were filled with anxiety as he asked immediately.
Dongfang Liuyun was stunned for a moment before she recovered. She took the water from the nurse and gestured for her to leave. Then, she sat down on a chair at the side.
“He’s fine. Father, don’t worry. Take care of your health first and drink some water,” Dongfang Liuyun said this, but was Dongfang Gan not a sharp person too?
He could immediately see the gloomy look on Dongfang Liuyun’s face—
