Chapter 134 You Promised Me
Liu Hua readily offered more money, and the driver didn't hesitate either.
With a tap of the accelerator, the car shot forward.
Cheng Yanzhou looked serious as he picked up his phone to send a message, saying, "Dahua, that streamer..."
"Um,"
Liu Hua nodded heavily: "I'll contact President Zhou and explain the situation to him first."
"OK,"
Cheng Yanzhou agreed, then added, "I'll also contact the company. After all, President Lin and President Pei both... asked them to prepare contingency plans in advance, just in case."
The two had a clear division of labor, and each was busy with their own tasks with serious expressions.
In the other car, Pei Xubai looked at the message Liu Hua had just sent, then glanced at Lin Yan'an's anxious eyes, and lowered his gaze to make arrangements on his phone.
The city lights outside the window are just coming on, neon lights are flashing.
However, this could not alleviate Lin Yan'an's anxiety.
For the first time, he clearly realized that Zhong Wan had truly entered his heart.
He thought he could remain calm throughout the marriage, but he never expected to succumb to it in the end.
And now, he is happy to do it.
But when he thought of Zhong Wan's current weak appearance, his heart felt like it was being tightly gripped by an invisible hand, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest.
As soon as the car stopped at the hospital entrance, Lin Yan'an couldn't wait to get out and rush into the hospital, heading straight for the room Pei Xingyu had sent her.
At the same time, Pei Xingyu sat on the sofa, looking at Zhong Wan lying on the hospital bed with her eyes closed, and seeing her pale face, he said softly, "Auntie, if you're sleepy, you can sleep for a while. I'll wake you up when my uncle arrives."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan couldn't help but yawn again. Her thick eyelashes trembled slightly as she slowly opened her eyes and looked at Pei Xingyu, asking in a very weak voice, "What time is it?"
Pei Xingyu quickly checked the time and replied, "It's almost eleven o'clock."
"Yes, Zhong Yang and the others..."
"Don't worry, Auntie. I've already asked Zhong Yang to take them home to rest, and I've also told him not to come over tonight. I'm here, so let him rest well at home."
Before she could finish speaking, Pei Xingyu eagerly interrupted, his tone carrying a hint of flattery and praise: "How is Auntie? Am I very considerate?"
Zhong Wan chuckled upon hearing this, and nodded with a smile as she looked at Pei Xingyu, who was making a fool of himself: "Very thoughtful."
"You should go back and rest early too."
"Need not."
Pei Xingyu waved his hand dismissively: "I'm free tomorrow, no rush. Let's wait until my uncle arrives."
He had barely finished speaking when he heard hurried footsteps coming from the stairwell. Curious, he peeked out and asked, "I think I heard a noise. Could it be my uncle?"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan looked expectantly towards the door.
Pei Xingyu glanced at the time again as he spoke, then stood up and took only two steps...
The door in front of them was suddenly pushed open with a loud bang.
Pei Xingyu was instantly relieved; thankfully, he hadn't gone over there.
He looked up at the figure that had suddenly appeared before him.
Lin Yan'an appeared anxiously at the ward door, his hair disheveled and his breathing rapid.
His forehead was even covered in fine beads of sweat, clearly indicating he had run all the way.
Lin Yan'an leaned against the doorframe, looking at Pei Xingyu breathlessly, and asked, "Where's Zhong Wan?"
"there."
Pei Xingyu was startled by his bloodshot eyes, quickly pointed towards the hospital bed, and then hurriedly moved aside.
This seemed to be the first time he had ever seen his uncle so anxious.
Pei Xingyu stood by the wall, watching quietly.
"Wanwan..."
Lin Yan'an's voice was hoarse, his steps were hurried, and he almost stumbled to the bedside.
Hearing his familiar voice and seeing Lin Yan'an's familiar features, Zhong Wan felt extremely at ease. She slowly raised her hand.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yan'an quickly reached out and grasped the hand. Although the hand in front of him wasn't on an IV drip, it was still frighteningly cold, even colder than his own body temperature.
Lin Yan'an held her small hand tightly in one hand, lowered his head and breathed on it, asking in a slightly flustered tone, "Why is your body temperature so low?"
"Is that hand cold?"
As he asked, he quickly turned his head to look. Seeing the hand covered by the clothes, he reached in and felt the warm temperature inside before letting out a sigh of relief.
A weak smile crept onto Zhong Wan's face as she looked at him with a dependent and focused gaze.
Seeing the fine beads of sweat on his forehead and his disheveled hair, she said with great concern, "I'm sorry for making you worry."
Lin Yan'an paused upon hearing this, looked up at her pale face, and sighed softly: "It's also my fault, I shouldn't have left you behind."
His warm hand touched her cheek, his thumb gently stroking it, his voice full of lingering fear and concern: "How did you get yourself into this state?"
Zhong Wan smiled and tilted her head slightly to affectionately rub his palm.
Looking at this heartwarming scene before him, Pei Xingyu was momentarily unsure whether he should even exist anymore.
He hesitated for a long time, and was just about to quietly slip away when he saw his father and sister arrive at the ward door.
"Dad, Yao Yao, what brings you here too?"
Upon hearing Pei Xingyu's voice, Zhong Wan couldn't help but look up curiously.
Lin Yan'an keenly noticed her gaze and explained in a low voice, "I came back with my brother-in-law and the others."
Zhong Wan immediately understood and asked with concern, "It's still a problem with the script."
Her voice was firm, but Lin Yan'an seemed to avoid the question.
She was already feeling very unwell, and he didn't want to worry her anymore.
Lin Yan'an lowered her eyes, focusing on warming her hands, and asked in a low voice, "What did your doctor say? What's the problem?"
Pei Xingyu, who had sharp ears, heard this and quickly replied, "The doctor said the initial test results showed low blood sugar and low blood pressure, but further examination is needed. However, after my aunt woke up, she refused to have any more tests."
Lin Yan'an frowned upon hearing this, looking at Zhong Wan with strong disapproval.
Zhong Wan paused in her smile upon seeing this, then whispered a reminder: "Merit points."
Lin Yan'an instantly understood. Seeing her pale face, his anger flared, and his tone became even harsher: "Zhong Wan, you promised me!"
Zhong Wan lowered her eyes: "It's Rui Rui."
Her voice was weak and feeble, and her expression was somber.
Lin Yan'an was taken aback upon hearing this. Thinking of that child, all the anger in her heart deflated instantly, like a punctured balloon, leaving only heartache and helplessness.
His voice was hoarse as he asked in a low voice, "Your merit points are zero?"
Zhong Wan didn't want him to worry, but she also didn't want to lie to him.
After all, who knows when Zhong Suisui will be able to come out? He'll find out when the time comes.
Sure enough, just as she thought of Zhong Suisui, Lin Yan'an also keenly sensed something and immediately asked, "No, it shouldn't be just 0. Suisui wasn't forcibly disappeared last time..."
