Chapter 114: Outside, snowflakes were still falling, Luo Miao...

Outside, snowflakes were still falling. Luo Miao was so anxious that he knocked on the door once and then pushed it open, looking for Qi Hanmu.

The light grey wool sweater outlines the man's thin figure and is even too loose. Even though the style and material of the sweater are good, it is still inconvenient to wear in front of outsiders.

Only at home would Qi Hanmu reluctantly give up his concern for appearance and prioritize keeping warm.

But I didn't expect that this would backfire. I coughed so hard that a heat rushed to my forehead, but the woolen sweater locked in the heat from my whole body and didn't let it escape. As a result, I started sweating at the tip of my nose.

Qi Hanmu's originally pale face also turned a little red, like a ray of morning glow rising in the vast sky. Although beautiful, it will eventually give way to new things and cannot last long.

Overwork and worry caused a trickle of blood to slowly flow out from Qi Hanmu's mouth.

He couldn't tell how many times he had difficulty seeing tonight. His broken heart was about to drag his body down, and Xia Yiqing's betrayal in the video tonight was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"Third Master," Luo Miao rushed in just in time, scooped up the person who had lost all strength and fell, and hurriedly pressed the bell. In his haste, he even forgot about the taboos.

"Madam said she didn't mean it. Please be magnanimous and meet her. Maybe everything will be fine after meeting her. If there is a misunderstanding, can't it be resolved by talking it out?"

Qin Fei, who rushed over after hearing the news, had a gloomy face. Looking at Qi Hanmu's still trembling hands and his lips that had turned purple from holding back his anger, he felt a surge of emotion in his heart.

Who would have thought that Mr. Qi San, who looked so noble, would one day be trapped by love.

After taking the quick-acting heart-saving pills and breathing oxygen, Qi Hanmu's complexion looked better and had some color, and he didn't look like a dying man anymore.

He lay on his back on the nursing bed, his expression dull, his eyes unfocused as he stared at the ceiling, his hands outside the sheets, yet blending into the white sheets.

In order to facilitate cleaning, the sheets in the master bedroom have long been changed to white, which is easy to clean. At first glance, they look no different from those in the hospital.

The heavy smell of illness and medicine were washed away by the smell of disinfectant, but instead became even more rampant.

This unpleasant smell repeatedly hit Qi Hanmu's nose, making him almost vomit.

Unfortunately, when people are seriously ill, their bodies are almost out of control. Their heads feel dizzy and they can hardly open their eyelids. They only have time to slightly turn to the side, and then filth will unconsciously flow out of their mouths and noses.

This situation happened suddenly, but Qin Fei and others were very experienced. They immediately took off their oxygen masks and cleaned up all the filth for Qi Hanmu as quickly as possible.

When being manipulated, Qi Hanmu had no expression at all. His dark eyes, which usually could see through people's hearts, lost their luster and became dark and gloomy, which was frightening to look at.

This is not at all what a proud person should look like, but rather the look of someone who has lost all hope.

"Third Master," Qin Fei originally wanted to stop interfering in the relationship between Xia Yiqing and Qi Hanmu. After all, it would be wrong for him to stand on either side. But now, Qi Hanmu's physical condition forced him to pay attention.

"When it comes to mental illness, the most important thing is to stop overthinking. It's exhausting and draining your energy. The most important thing for you right now is to rest."

Qi Hanmu lowered his eyes and didn't argue much. He just told Luo Miao that if there was any situation with the old lady, he must be notified immediately.

Luo Miao originally wanted to ask what to do with Xia Yiqing who was waiting at the foot of the mountain, but seeing that Qi Hanmu looked really tired, he didn't dare to ask anymore.

But out of respect for Xia Yiqing's character and belief that Xia Yiqing would not do such a thing, Luo Miao went down the mountain selfishly to pass on a message to Xia Yiqing.

"The Third Master is not feeling well and has gone to bed. If you are outside, the Third Master will not be able to sleep well. In my opinion, you should go back.

"When the sun rises tomorrow, the Third Master will figure it out and will naturally let you in."

Luo Miao's dissuasion was naturally well-intentioned, and Xia Yi's driver was also very loyal. He expressed that he would stand by Xia Yiqing through thick and thin. If she didn't leave, he would also endure the cold outside with Xia Yiqing.

Even though her hands were so cold that she couldn't feel them, Xia Yiqing still felt bad when she saw the driver rubbing his hands constantly.

With a sigh, she could only ask Luo Miao to inform him that she had been there, then she got in the car and went back to the small apartment.

Tonight, the lights in Yi Garden were on all night.

Luo Miao brought news from Old Madam Qi, "Third Master, the old lady is basically fine now, but..."

"explain."

The man leaned against the bed screen, his lips were a deep purple, his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his eye bags, and his neck was fragile white, as if it could break at any time.

"It's just that the old lady's left leg may not be able to stand up."

The snow outside had stopped falling, quietly covering the ground in a thick layer, as if to cover up all the sins of the world. It should have been dazzlingly white, but because of the need for road construction, it was mixed with coal ash, making it look gray and out of place beside the road.

Luo Miao licked his dry lips and continued, "The old lady is now awake and she said she has found a marriage partner for you."

Qi Hanmu raised one hand with a slightly tired look on his face. It was already almost two or three in the morning. It was obviously inappropriate to visit the old lady at this time. Moreover, the blow tonight really made him physically and mentally exhausted.

But I didn't expect that this broken heart could have such an effect. When I heard the word "marriage partner", it actually made me feel so sad and painful.

It was as if a pair of invisible hands were tightly gripping my heart, suppressing its beating, causing oxygen deprivation to the brain and difficulty breathing.

The ventilator next to him was still working, quietly delivering the oxygen that Qi Hanmu needed, and adjusting the oxygen delivery rate according to his breathing frequency, making Qi Hanmu look just a little pale, and otherwise no different from a normal person.

This was a sleepless night for Qi Hanmu. In his dream, only Xia Yiqing was walking away, and no matter how loudly he called out, she would not turn back.

He suddenly opened his eyes, his phoenix eyes were still unfocused, but his pupils suddenly shrank, and cold sweat rolled down his face.

The ECG monitor nearby started beeping, and Qin Fei and the others rushed in. Only then did Qi Hanmu's eyes light up a little.

It was almost five or six in the morning when the sun rose.

"Third Master, do you need another injection of sedative and sleeping pills?"

As Qi Hanmu's personal doctor, Qin Fei often has no choice but to prescribe medicine.

After all, he should have rested, but the Third Master insisted on working. What could he do? As a private doctor, he could not overstep his authority and could only watch Qi Hanmu's face become increasingly pale.

With his slender pale forearm raised, Qi Hanmu, with Luo Miao's careful support, changed from lying on his back to sitting.

"Prepare the car and go to Qingmu Medical."

The innermost VIP ward on the top floor of Qingmu Medical.

Qi Hanmu was quickly tidied up and put on a straight, wide suit, which covered the wool sweater underneath tightly. The pair of British leather shoes on his feet were a bit narrow when he put them on, but he squeezed them in regardless.

Foot edema is a common symptom of heart disease. Qi Hanmu originally thought that he was familiar with this disease after dealing with it for decades.

Unexpectedly, every step seems to be extremely difficult.

Those overly narrow British leather shoes that had been tailored for him not long ago reminded him all the time that he was far from being a normal person.

It is said that you cannot make noise in the hospital, but Qi Hanmu heard faint voices coming from inside at the door, including a woman's sweet laughter.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door, a pretty woman with bright eyes and eyebrows came into his sight.

That was Gongsun Yang, the only daughter of the Gongsun family of this generation.

With a little thought, it is not difficult to guess that this is the marriage partner that Old Lady Qi is looking for for him.

A pair of grandparents and grandchildren, one lying on the bed, the other standing at the door, their eyes met each other's deeply, although no one spoke, they both understood what each other meant.

Xia Yiqing has done this now, and the Qi family will never accept her no matter what.

Ms. Gongsun Yang in front of us is the best representative.

Qi Hanmu sat down on a stool beside the bed and asked about the old lady's condition. After everything was fine, Gongsun Yang took a knife and carefully peeled an apple on the side, chatting and laughing.

"Brother Qi may not know this yet, but today, I saw someone I know in the coffee shop downstairs."

At this moment, Qi Hanying came in angrily. "Brother," he said in a weaker voice when he saw Old Madam Qi, "that Xia Yiqing was secretly meeting a man in the coffee shop downstairs!"

Many pairs of eyes fell on Qi Hanmu's face, but that face was still calm, but the color was a little paler.

"lead the way."

When Qi Hanmu's eyes were not smiling, they would give people a great deal of pressure, like a gloomy twilight that made people dare not look directly at him.

As he walked forward, his right thumb unconsciously rubbed the watch on his left wrist. It was night.

And Xia Yiqing should have been his star.

But when he saw Xia Yiqing wearing that brilliant star watch, sitting opposite a man, with smiles on both of their faces, Qi Hanmu's world seemed to fall into darkness again.

Those two people seemed to be the only ones in the world. Through the glass, they could almost see the reflection in each other's pupils.

What a beautiful couple.

Gongsun Yang's puzzled voice sounded from behind, "So Chen Wen has a girlfriend? I just said he was in the coffee shop. How come he has a girlfriend and didn't tell us?"

Yes, the two of them behaved intimately. If someone who didn't understand saw them, they would not only look like a boyfriend and girlfriend, but also a match made in heaven, a couple made in heaven.

Cold sweat accumulated on his back, and the pain on his left side radiated from that area to the side, all the way to half of his shoulder, which was numb. Qi Hanmu stood there like a statue, his eyes fixed on the glass.

His reflection was reflected in the glass. He was tall and thin, with almost sunken cheeks, a pair of dull and lifeless eyes, and dark circles under his eyes. Who would like such a lifeless person?

Although the wind was very strong, it seemed as if snow was still falling from the sky, with snowflakes landing on Qi Hanmu's head, shoulders and palms.

The snow melted, and I felt chilled to the bone, even getting my clothes wet.

"Go back," Qi Hanmu's voice sounded particularly clear in the cold wind.

"Stop gathering here and go back."

How could Luo Miao be at ease? It was so cold, and Third Master had a weak heart. If he stayed here alone, he might get into trouble. "Third Master, how about I stay here?"

"You go too."

Helplessly, Luo Miao had to retreat a hundred meters away with everyone else.

Qi Hanmu didn't know how long he had been standing outside, he just felt as if he was slowly freezing like a snowman.
