"Bang--"
The chair was shoved away and fell heavily to the ground.
Before everyone could react, Shi Heng rushed out of the box almost instantly.
"What happened?" Fu Xingyao was the first to chase out.
Gu Xun, Lina, and Assistant Qin also immediately stood up and followed, only to see Shi Heng's figure disappear at the elevator entrance.
Shi Heng had no recollection of how he drove back to Kangrui Hospital.
How many red lights I ran through, how many cars I overtook, how many guardrails I almost hit...none of this matters anymore.
All I know is that the moment he rushed into the ward, the whole world became quiet.
Gu Youran was leaning against the head of the bed, and Zhuoran was feeding her water.
Hearing the sound, she turned to look at the door, and her pale little face instantly lit up.
"husband……"
This soft call made Shi Heng's eyes red instantly.
He staggered and knelt down in front of the bed, and carefully held her face with trembling hands, as if holding a fragile treasure.
"Youbao..." His voice was hoarse.
Gu Youran raised her hand to wipe away the tears on his face, and gently stroked the stubble on his chin with her fingertips.
"How did you get yourself like this..." Her voice was still weak, but filled with heartache.
Shi Heng buried his face in her palms and breathed in her scent deeply.
"You scared me to death..."
His voice choked, "Do you know how I got through these ten days?"
"Let me take a good look at you..."
Gu Youran's fingers stroked the dark circles under his eyes, "You don't even sleep well..."
Shi Heng unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt and pressed her hand against his chest, "It hurts here every day..."
His lips touched her fingertips gently, "Without you, it won't even dance."
Gu Youran's tears finally fell, and she drew circles on his chest with her fingers, "You're lying... You were jumping so vigorously..."
Shi Heng couldn't bear it any longer, he leaned over and gently held her in his arms, but he didn't dare to use too much force.
His lips were close to her ear. "Don't scare me like this again... I'll go crazy without you..."
Gu Youran trembled slightly in his arms, raised her face and kissed him on the chin.
"I'm back……"
Shi Heng's breath was choked, and he finally lowered his head and kissed her pale lips, so gently as if he was afraid of shattering a dream.
This kiss is filled with longing, worry and endless attachment.
There was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the corridor.
Gu Xun leaned against the door frame and gasped for breath, his tie even coming crooked.
Fu Xingyao was in an even more miserable state, with the hair on his forehead wet with sweat.
Lina and Assistant Qin rushed in at last and saw this heartwarming scene.
Shi Heng was holding Gu Youran in his arms, as if he was holding a lost treasure.
The man who was so decisive in the business world now had an unwavering tenderness in his eyes.
"I'm glad you woke up."
A deep male voice came from behind.
Lina turned around and saw Renault standing at the door.
She had never seen Renault like this.
Those eyes that were always cold as ice were now filled with a tenderness she had never seen before, and their gaze was fixed on Gu Youran lying on the hospital bed.
Lina could even see his slightly trembling eyelashes and the hidden affection in his eyes.
"thunder……"
She was about to speak when she saw Renault unconsciously take half a step forward, his fingers slightly curled at his side, as if he wanted to touch something but restrained himself and pulled them back.
This subtle movement made Lina's heart suddenly tighten.
“Snap—”
The bag in his hand fell to the ground.
Lina bent down in a panic to pick it up, but bumped into Renault's sight when he suddenly turned around.
The moment those eyes met hers, they returned to their usual indifference, as if the tenderness just now was just her illusion.
"careful."
Renault bent down to help her pick up the bag, and his fingertips accidentally brushed against the back of her hand. The cold touch made Lina's heart tremble.
As he handed over the bag, his eyes involuntarily drifted towards the bed.
Lina took the bag and her nails dug into her palm unconsciously.
She looked at Renault's well-defined profile, and the nostalgia in his eyes that he couldn't hide in time, and suddenly understood something.
It turns out... he would also look at someone with such eyes...
Renault seemed to notice her gaze and turned his head.
The moment their eyes met, Lina looked away in panic, but still caught a flash of discomfort in his eyes.
"you……"
"I'm leaving first."
Renault interrupted her and turned away with a hurried pace.
Lina stood there, watching his back disappear around the corner of the corridor, the bag strap in her hand deformed from being clenched.
…
The other side.
Han Jingchen sat at the desk with the family tree on it.
When the clock struck eight, the silver key in his hand suddenly began to heat up, making his fingertips red.
The cover of the genealogy is interwoven into a pattern of nine stars in a row.
He inserted the key into the lock of the family tree.
“Click—”
A soft sound.
The family tree automatically unfolded for the second time, and there were only four words "New Year's Eve Change" on the yellowed paper.
Suddenly, the words on the paper came alive, the ink slowly dissolving into a moving picture:
It was a snowy night.
There were two big red lanterns hanging on the door of the Shi family's house, with the word "Fu" written on it.
The yard was decorated with lights and children in new clothes were setting off firecrackers.
The adults sat around the fireplace, the table was filled with chicken, duck, fish and meat, and the aroma of wine was everywhere.
"Bang--"
With a loud bang, the door was kicked open.
A young man in a snow-white robe rushed in with a sword in hand.
