Yan's mother looked at Qiu Yuru with gratitude.
"Why is my husband's life so hard? He's wanted to have a grandson his whole life. He always tells me that he has to make something of himself and let his grandson at least see what his grandfather looks like before he passes away. Now, his two children are finally getting married. What will we do if something really happens to them?"
The more they talked, the sadder they became, and they couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing this, Qiu Yuru felt a strange pang of sadness.
Actually, it wasn't just Lao Yan who thought this way; they all thought the same thing. They were always worried that one day they would suddenly be gone, and Xiao Ran would definitely have a hard time without a helper to take care of the child.
This is also why they are so eager for Xiao Ran to have a child; today, they saw Lao Yan being wheeled into the ward just like that.
She felt that life was unpredictable and accidents could happen any day. You might fall down or get hit by a flowerpot while walking on the street, and suddenly you're gone.
Therefore, they are even more determined to make Yan Xici and Xiao Ran have a child, otherwise it will truly be a regret for their entire lives!
Xiao Shengrong had already arranged everything and then walked out of the hospital. Standing by the flower bed, he took out his phone while smoking and called Xiao Ran.
Just then, Yan Xici was holding a tissue, about to throw it into the trash can, when she heard Xiao Ran's phone ring on the table. Xiao Ran heard it too, and he paused, picking up the phone that was at the front of the table.
"Hello, Dad."
"Your father-in-law is in the hospital."
After Xiao Shengrong finished speaking, he exhaled the smoke from his mouth.
Xiao Ran was startled upon hearing this news, and even his eyes became tense.
"Why did he suddenly end up in the hospital?"
Just two days ago they were having dinner together discussing their marriage with Yan Xici, and he seemed to be in much better spirits.
Upon hearing the word "hospitalization," Yan Xici, who had just sat down on the sofa, instantly tensed up again.
A pair of eyes looked uneasily at Xiao Ran's face. Who's in the hospital?
"I fell this morning and passed out. I have brain problems and might have a stroke. Anyway, you should come over first and we'll talk when you get here."
"Okay, I understand. We'll be right there."
"Okay, I'll hang up now. Your mom and mother-in-law are still upstairs keeping watch. I'll go check on them."
Xiao Shengrong hung up the phone after he finished speaking.
Xiao Ran took the phone off his ear and looked at Yan Xici's face, unsure how to tell her the bad news.
Although Mr. Yan has been exceptionally strict with his two daughters over the years, it is not hard to see that both daughters actually have very deep feelings for him.
Yan Xici felt increasingly nervous under his gaze, and her bad premonition grew stronger.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Xiao Ran composed himself and tried to speak in the calmest tone, "Xi Ci, Dad fell and is in the hospital right now."
Upon hearing this, the already nervous girl's heart jumped into her throat.
This makes you feel like a firework has exploded in your head.
Dad fell?
Good heavens, what's going on?
"How could he have fallen? He can't move, so why did he fall?"
Yan Xici was almost in tears.
How could this happen? Everything was fine just a couple of days ago.
Did you injure your brain?
Before my sister left, she told them to take good care of Dad.
Now look what's happened! She's only been gone for half a day, and her father is already in the hospital. How am I going to explain this to him?
"I'm not sure either. The most important thing right now is to go and check it out first."
After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he walked to the sofa and picked up his coat.
Then he looked at Yan Xici with a worried expression.
Yan Xici sniffed, and tears involuntarily fell as she looked at Xiao Ran.
Yan's father was a very strong-willed person throughout his life, but unfortunately, fate played a cruel trick on him, causing him to spend the latter half of his life in a wheelchair.
This was already the greatest torment he could endure.
Now that she's in the hospital again, the thought of it brings a pang of heartache to the girl's eyes.
Xiao Ran reached out and helped her up. "It's alright, it's nothing. Dad just fell. The detailed test results haven't come out yet. It might not be a stroke. Try to think positively."
"Let's go to the hospital first."
The girl didn't remember how she got into the car, only that when she arrived at the hospital, her mother and Xiao Ran's parents were sitting on chairs outside the ward, looking extremely unwell.
Upon seeing Yan Xici arrive, Qiu Yuru quickly stood up and gestured for Yan Xici to go talk to her mother first, hoping to calm her down.
After all, Yan's mother is not in a good condition right now.
"Mom." The girl said, her voice trembling with tears, and then hugged her mother tightly, her heart aching for her.
Yan's mother wiped away her tears and then patted her head.
"It's alright, your dad will definitely be alright. He hasn't fulfilled his biggest wish in this life yet, he'll definitely be fine!"
The voice seemed to be comforting Yan Xici, but it also seemed to be comforting itself.
At that moment, the door to the ward was finally opened from the inside.
Seeing a doctor come out, Xiao Ran hurriedly went forward.
"Doctor, how is my dad?"
The doctor took off his gloves before looking at Xiao Ran's face.
