Chapter 1239: Unimaginable
Helian Qingyu knew that Jing Ruyue was the Violin Diva that had been known to the whole world in the past, and that she had even held a concert in Estan in the past. That was how his father became her fan.
Helian Qingyu guessed that his father fell in love with Jing Ruyue in the past which led to the awkwardness that he was sensing.
Yet he did not expose his father.
Helian Wei shot an in-depth glance at his son and knew what he meant.
“It’s because the food is good,” Helian Wei explained. “You youngsters should not waste food.”
“I get it, I get it. I’ll finish it,” Helian Qingyu laughed. “But these are seriously good!”
Everyone began to dig in, but Jing Ruyue could feel someone sneaking glances at her from time to time, and it made her uncomfortable.
That was one thing that really surprised her: being able to eat at the same table as Feng again.
It was something that she could have never imagined happening after they were separated.
She sat beside his son and thought that Feng had no idea that he was sitting just across from his own daughter.
She could feel her heart tightening as she tried to hold her tears back.
“Yanyan, I’m feeling a little unwell,” Jing Ruyue said, trying to leave in case she really started crying. “I’ll go back to my room now.”
“Mum, are you all right?”
Xu Xiyan did notice that her mother’s skin was paler than it used to be, so pale that she looked like a ghost.
“I’m fine…”
Jing Ruyue shook her head and tried to get up. But as soon as she got up, she could feel her head spinning, and she grabbed the side of the table to steady herself.
“Mum, let me accompany you back to your room,” Xu Xiyan offered, afraid that her mother might collapse.
“I’m fine… Please, enjoy.” Jing Ruyue smiled and walked towards the door.
But just steps before Jing Ruyue could exit the dining room, everything went dark for her, and she fainted.
“Mum!” Xu Xiyan screamed and rushed to her.
But before Xu Xiyan could reach her mother, a strong arm cushioned Jing Ruyue’s fall.
Helian Wei got to Jing Ruyue in time. When she fell into his arms, he could finally feel how skinny she had really become.
He could even lift her without using any strength.
“Mum! Are you all right?” Xu Xiyan shouted, but she got no response from Jing Ruyue.
“QIngyu, hurry up and contact Yici!” Helian Wei ordered.
“On it!”
“Mr. President, allow me.” Huo Yunshen offered his help.
“It’s okay. She’s not even heavy,” Helian Wei refused.
Helian Wei was worried about the woman he loved, the woman who was lying in his arms and giving no response.
“Where should I put her?” Helian Wei asked.
“Her room,” Xu XIyan said and guided them to Jing Ruyue’s room upstairs.
