Chapter 707 Qi Yue misunderstood again...
Lin Yun's voice choked with emotion on the other end of the phone.
The report came out, and the results were not good.
Upon hearing this result, Qi Yue's face instantly darkened.
He hesitated for a moment, then turned to look to the side.
Shen Anning had fallen asleep at some point.
Perhaps she had just cried, because she slept especially soundly.
Qi Yue lowered his voice, "You take good care of Uncle Luo first. I will personally communicate with the hospital."
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you, Mr. Qi."
Qi Yue gave a faint reply and hung up the phone.
The household items for the bridal chamber will not be delivered until tomorrow. Qi Yue was worried that Shen Anning would catch a cold if she slept here, so he took off his coat and covered her with it.
The coat, warmed by Qi Yue's body heat, covered Shen Anning's slightly curled-up body.
Qi Yue's unique scent seeped into Shen Anning's dream.
She unconsciously curled the corners of her lips and burrowed her face further into the cover.
Qi Yue watched her kitten-like movements and his heart stirred. He lowered his head and placed a light kiss on her forehead.
Shen Anning's eyelashes trembled, and a soft murmur reached the man's ears—
“Qi Yue…”
The man's tall frame stiffened abruptly. He braced himself on his hands beside her, raised his head, and stared at the sleeping woman with his dark eyes.
The woman was trapped in a dream, and the images of Qi Yue suffering from illness turned into nightmares that haunted her.
She was crying again, calling out "Qi Yue" over and over.
Unfortunately, she received no response in her dream;
In reality, she received no response either.
Qi Yue stood up, the warmth in his dark eyes gradually fading.
"Five years and two children, and you still can't let go of that man?"
Qi Yue murmured softly, a mocking smile curving his lips.
He withdrew his gaze, turned, and walked out of the room.
...
Qi Yue went down to the back garden to make a phone call.
Luo Dongjin's attending physician is the most authoritative doctor at Qin's Hospital and one of the top oncology experts in China.
Luo Dongjin has advanced liver cancer, and the best treatment option is transplantation.
However, since Luo Dongjin had just been in a car accident and his body was in a weakened state, the risk of transplantation at this time was very high.
The most troublesome thing is this surgery, which cannot be delayed.
The wedding is in two days.
It just so happens to be at times like this.
Qi Yue hung up the phone, took out his cigarette case, and lit a cigarette...
...
When Shen Anning woke up, she was wearing Qi Yue's coat.
She sat up, looked around, and didn't see Qi Yue.
Finally, Shen Anning leaned against the bay window and saw Qi Yue smoking in the back garden.
The man stood tall and straight, a cigarette between his fingers, taking puffs one after another. His almost self-destructive way of smoking revealed his current agitation.
Shen Anning looked at him for a while, then turned around, got off the bay window, and went downstairs with his coat in her arms.
In the back garden, just as Qi Yue lit his third cigarette, he heard footsteps behind him.
He paused, then turned his head.
Seeing Shen Anning walking towards him with her coat in her arms, he frowned. "Don't come any closer."
Chen Anning paused.
“I smoke, it’s bad for the children.” Qi Yue immediately stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray on the stone table next to him and said to Shen Anning, “Let’s wait for the smoke to dissipate.”
Shen Anning didn't move forward, but just stared at him and asked softly, "Are you in a bad mood?"
Qi Yue raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Uncle Luo's test results are out, and they're not good."
Shen Anning's breath hitched, and after a moment, she asked, "What illness is it?"
"Mid-to-late stage liver cancer." Qi Yue's voice was heavy. "Dr. Zhao, the attending physician, suggested a transplant, but the surgery is very risky. Uncle Luo has no relatives, and a suitable match needs to be found for the transplant. But given Uncle Luo's current condition, I'm afraid he can't wait..."
Shen Anning had not expected Luo Dongjin to become so seriously ill all of a sudden.
Qi Yue knew very well how important Luo Dongjin was to her.
In the early days of Qi Yue's entry into the business world, Luo Dongjin stayed by Qi Yue's side. To Qi Yue, Luo Dongjin was like family.
Shen Anning didn't know what to say to comfort Qi Yue for a moment, so she could only say, "There will always be a way. Uncle Qin will do his best to find a liver for Uncle Luo."
Qi Yue nodded slightly, took a deep breath, composed himself, and then walked towards Chen Anning.
He raised his hand and gently stroked her slightly swollen eyelids with his fingertips.
Shen Anning was slightly taken aback.
"Why are your eyes so red?" Qi Yue's eyes were dark. "Have you been crying again?"
Shen Anning felt a little awkward and raised her hand to rub her eyes. "There weren't that many tears. I just rubbed them after waking up."
Qi Yue looked at her and said, "Don't cry all the time; it's not good for the baby."
Shen Anning was taken aback, then nodded. "Today was an accident. I will adjust my emotions in the future."
"You can also choose to confide in me."
Shen Anning looked at him, and gave a bitter smile. "Okay, I understand."
Qi Yue frowned, knowing that she was just making excuses for him again.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little off again.
Shen Anning glanced at the time and asked, "Are you going back to the hospital?"
"Yes, I need to go see Director Zhao."
Shen Anning: "Do you need me to come with you?"
"No need." Qi Yue held her hand; it was soft and easy to hold, though her fingertips were a little cold.
Qi Yue took the coat from her arm, unfolded it, and draped it over her shoulders.
"I'll take you home first. The wedding is the day after tomorrow. You should get plenty of rest these next few days. There will be a lot of guests at the wedding banquet, so you might be quite tired."
“Okay.” Shen Anning nodded.
Qi Yue led her outside, asking, "Is there anything else you'd like to change about this house?"
“They’re all great,” Shen Anning said truthfully. “I really like the style.”
Qi Yue glanced at her and smiled faintly, "I'm glad you like it."
Shen Anning felt that Qi Yue was not in a good mood, but then she thought that it was normal for Qi Yue to be in a bad mood since Luo Dongjin was sick.
After the two got into the car, Qi Yue helped Shen Anning fasten her seatbelt.
He then started the car.
The Phantom drove out of the mansion and headed out of the residential area.
Shen Anning leaned back in her seat, quietly watching Qi Yue drive.
Qi Yue stared ahead, his hands resting on the steering wheel.
The atmosphere inside the car was inexplicably oppressive.
They were getting married the day after tomorrow, and they had just finished looking at their wedding home. This should have been their happiest and sweetest time, but they were both speechless.
...
The two did not speak a word the entire way.
Upon arriving at the Lijiang Villa, Qi Yue was about to unbuckle his seatbelt when Shen Anning spoke up first, saying, "I can go in by myself. Uncle Luo's situation is more important, so you should go quickly."
Qi Yue paused, looked at her, and remained silent for a moment before saying, "Then I'll come find you when I'm done with my work."
Hearing this, Shen Anning said helplessly, "You must be tired from traveling back and forth between China and abroad these past two days. I have family with me here. Take a break when you're done with your work, otherwise you won't have any time to rest on the wedding day."
Seeing that she was still willing to care about him, Qi Yue felt relieved and smiled, "Okay, then let's keep in touch on WeChat."
"Okay." Shen Anning got out of the car and waved to Qi Yue before closing the door. "Be careful on the road."
Qi Yue nodded, "Okay."
Shen Anning closed the car door.
The Phantom turned around and drove out of Lijiang Villa.
Shen Anning stood there, one hand on her stomach, watching the car disappear into the distance.
...
At the hospital, Qi Yue rushed to Luo Dongjin's ward.
Lin Yun sat on a chair outside the ward, head down, wiping away tears.
Qi Yue walked up to her.
Lin Yun paused, then slowly raised her head.
The woman's eyes were blurry with tears. When she saw that it was Qi Yue, she hurriedly raised her hand to wipe away her tears.
She stood up, sniffed, and said, "President Qi..."
