Chapter 1042: Not Playing by the Rules
"It's nothing serious. Maybe I'm allergic to something I ate."
Although Li Guoxiong felt very uncomfortable, he still did not take his illness too seriously.
"So you must be careful in the future. Your body is too weak. I'll get you some ginseng or something in a couple of days to nourish you."
Ye Dongming was also very worried about him.
"It's not as exaggerated as you say. But is it convenient for you to come out so late?"
Li Guoxiong struggled to get up, but when he tried to move, he simply had no strength.
Shen Yun noticed his intention and hurried to help him.
"Don't move, we are not outsiders, just lie down and talk, we will go back later."
Ye Dongming didn't let him move any further.
Ye Yao looked at the bruised corners of Li Guoxiong's eyes, and his current exhausted state where he couldn't even stand up, and his expression became even more serious.
If it was just something bad, how could the situation be so serious? Ye Dongming was talking to Li Guoxiong, but Ye Yao gave Li Cheng a look, signaling him to go out with him.
Li Cheng immediately understood, and the two of them walked out of the ward calmly.
"Brother Li, are Uncle Li's test results really okay?"
In the corridor, Ye Yao lowered his voice and confirmed with him again.
"In fact, the specific cause of the disease has not been fully identified, and the current treatment plan is just a combination of the doctor's examination results and the existing symptoms."
"Can't find the cause?"
Ye Yao lowered his eyes and murmured.
Li Cheng looked at her expression and asked, "What's wrong? Did you see something?"
Ye Yao shook his head and said, "The doctors can't confirm it. I just feel that Uncle Li's condition doesn't seem like an allergy or food poisoning.
And you also said that Uncle Li didn't eat any excessive food before he fell ill.
Or you and Aunt Shen should think carefully about whether there is anything else abnormal in the past two days?"
She didn't know if she was overly suspicious, but she felt that Li Guoxiong's illness was too "strange".
Li Cheng's eyes deepened, "Abnormal? I guess the most abnormal thing is Huang Ying's sudden visit last night."
When he said this, he didn't really think about Huang Ying, but as soon as he finished speaking, he frowned.
Ye Yao looked at his reaction and knew that he must have thought of something.
"Huang Ying? What did she do?"
Li Cheng did not answer immediately, but was thinking about something.
More than ten seconds passed before he spoke again.
"She didn't do anything, she just said those words..."
Although he said this, there was a hint of uncertainty in his tone.
Ye Yao took a deep breath, "Maybe I'm overthinking it. Fortunately, Uncle Li's condition is relatively stable now. If there's nothing serious, he should be able to be discharged from the hospital soon."
She took the initiative to comfort him, not wanting to make him worry too much.
When the two returned to the ward, Zhang Qiufeng was talking to Shen Yun, while Ye Dongming was still guarding Li Guoxiong's bedside.
"Guoxiong, you should have a good rest. It's late today. Let's go back first and come to see you tomorrow."
After Ye Dongming said hello to Li Guoxiong, the family of three left.
Li Cheng accompanied them all the way to the hospital gate.
Ye Dongming patted his shoulder and said, "Take good care of your father."
Li Cheng nodded, "I will."
…
On the way back, Ye Dongming and Zhang Qiufeng kept talking about Li Guoxiong's situation, but Ye Yao said nothing.
"Yaoyao, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing that she seemed to be in a bad mood, Zhang Qiufeng couldn't help but ask.
Ye Yao came back to his senses, "Nothing."
Zhang Qiufeng wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Ye Dongming's eyes.
It was very simple that Ye Dongming didn't want her to continue asking questions. After all, the day after tomorrow was the day when Ye Xinxin would hold a press conference. Ye Yao would definitely be under pressure now, and this matter certainly couldn't be told to her.
Ye Yao was indeed thinking about the press conference that Ye Xinxin would hold the day after tomorrow.
Ye Xinxin was replaced from the hospital by Huang Ying. Huang Ying went to the Li family again last night, and Uncle Li fell ill today.
All of this seems too coincidental.
If Uncle Li's illness was not accidental, the only possible cause was Huang Ying...
…
Li Cheng stood in front of Li Guoxiong's bed. Li Guoxiong had fallen asleep again. His expression was indescribably cold.
"Li Cheng, you've been tired all day, go to the sofa next to you and take a rest. I'll watch over the first half of the night."
Shen Yun's voice interrupted his thoughts.
He has been really worried and stressed these days.
"I'm fine, you can rest first."
"But……"
"You should rest first. My dad is sleeping soundly now. If there are any more problems, you will be energetic to take care of him."
Li Cheng directly interrupted Shen Yun's next words.
After hearing what he said, Shen Yun no longer insisted.
…
The next day, early morning.
Huang Ying was so excited that she almost didn't sleep the whole night. As soon as the sun rose, she was already dressed.
He glanced at Ye Xinxin who was sleeping soundly on the kang, then moved lightly and tiptoed out.
She opened the gate to the yard carefully, trying not to wake her parents.
The alley was quiet, with no one in sight. She was in an extremely happy mood and walked straight towards the Li family's house.
The journey that usually takes six or seven minutes took her only two or three minutes to reach the gate of the Li family.
Looking at the closed door, I couldn't help but smile.
It seems that Uncle Li’s condition must be very bad, so he has not returned from the hospital.
Take two deep breaths and calm yourself.
She was happy, but what she would have to face next was Li Cheng’s wrath.
Thinking of this, she still felt uneasy and scared, but she had to do this step!
…
After more than ten minutes, Huang Ying returned to the house.
"What? Are you excited?"
Ye Xinxin's slow voice came from the kang, which scared her.
"Did I wake you up?"
Huang Ying patted her chest. She clearly did nothing, but she felt very guilty.
"I'm a light sleeper." Ye Xinxin yawned and sat up lazily from the kang.
Huang Ying looked at her with twinkling eyes, "Xinxin, what do you want to eat in the morning? I'll ask my mother to make it for you."
"I haven't eaten sea cucumber and abalone for a long time."
Ye Xinxin smacked her lips as she spoke.
Huang Ying: …
Was she deliberately "making things difficult" for her? Not to mention whether she could afford it, even if she wanted to buy it now, she had no place to eat! "Haha, I was just kidding you. Now I am the guest and I have to follow the host's wishes. How can I be picky?"
Before the atmosphere became completely awkward, Ye Xinxin spoke again with a smile.
Huang Ying nodded stiffly. She originally wanted to please her and then say the next words, but she just didn't play according to her routine.
