Gong Jie smiled and stroked her head lovingly. He then lifted his head to look at his brother-in-law, where the expression on his face cooled as he mouthed a warning impassively. “If you dare to bully her when I’m not around, you’ll get it from me.”
The other man merely snorted and ignored him.
The two refused to make peace even up to this moment of farewell.
The young man turned to his twin sister and reminded, “You must inform me if he ever bullies you; I’ll rush back immediately.”
He then passed her his name card with his satellite number.
Yun Shishi carefully stored away the card and replied smilingly, “He’ll never bully me, so don’t worry! As for you, you have to take good care of yourself; do you hear me?”
She heard from Youyou how dangerous his job could be, so there was no other concern on her mind except his safety.
“I will!” After saying that, he released her and got into the plane without a second look. The cabin door soon closed behind him.
…
When the couple returned to the hospital, they went to the old man’s ward to collect his stuff and then pay the remaining hospitalization bills. As Yun Yecheng had left in a hurry, many things were left unpacked inside the room.
As the woman walked back into the hospital ward to collect her father’s clothes, she was startled to see her uncle and his wife waiting there. Apparently, they had come to visit her father, only to be told that he had been transferred out. The latest information had stupefied them.
Hence, when Yun Yehou saw his niece, he anxiously approached her to inquire about his brother’s welfare. “Where’s your dad?”
“Uncle, why are you here?”
“I’m here to check on your dad; I want to see if he has made any progress.”
“He remains in status quo, but we have transferred him to another medical facility for better treatment!”
The man was puzzled by this decision. “But this hospital is the best in town in treating burns! Where did you transfer him to?”
“We’ve just sent him off to another medical facility overseas for treatment. Hopefully, a miracle happens.”
The woman took pains not to divulge too much information to her uncle.
The older man did not persist with his questioning, either. After checking on her, he ordered his wife to pack up the stuff as well.
There was nothing much left for the actress to manage after that aside from collecting the scripts she had left inside the room during her watch.
After clearing the room, the couple was about to leave when they walked past another ward. The door to it was suddenly flung open, and a middle-aged lady dashed out in distress. Heartbroken and sobbing relentlessly, her hands covered her face as tears rolled down her cheeks ceaselessly.
Alarmed, Yun Shishi avoided the woman deftly as she threw a glance into the ward through an open window. This was Lu Jingtian’s hospital room.
Oh, right. How could I forget that she’s staying on this floor, too?
The medical intensive units for patients suffering from severe burns were housed inside an establishment with several floors.
A middle-aged man walked out from the room after that. He looked flustered with puffy eyes and cheeks. The dark circles under his orbs attested to rough nights of unrest.
“Can you stop bursting into tears before the lass?! This is only going to make her more depressed! How do you expect her to get well in this way?”
“Get well?” As the woman sobbed, she replied accusingly, “How on Earth is she gonna get well with such injuries?! Who the… hell could be so cruel!?”
The woman looked too well-groomed and dignified to be spouting vulgarity. The fact that she had used such terms on the perpetrator demonstrated her great agitation and sorrow. The phrase, though, sounded desperate and despondent coming from her lips.
