Xiao Yihan held her shoulders with both hands, "Xiao Qiu, I want to stay here with you. If I don't stay with you, I will worry about you at night. I can't sleep anyway, so it's better to stay here with you. I feel more at ease."
Chu Jingqiu looked at his pair of dark phoenix eyes filled with red bloodshot, sighed helplessly, and pointed to another bed next to her.
She said softly, "Then you can stay here. You have to listen to me here. You can lie down on that bed and rest for a while. You can take my place in the second half of the night. Okay?"
Xiao Yihan nodded, took off his coat, and lay down on the other bed with his clothes on. At first, he was reluctant to sleep and stared at Chu Jingqiu intently.
Chu Jingqiu smiled and hummed a little tune in the room. After a while, Xiao Yihan fell asleep.
She helped Xiao Yihan take off his shoes, tucked in the quilt for him, and sat on the stool in front of the bed, holding her grandfather's hand tightly, and quietly guarding her grandfather's bed.
Around two o'clock in the morning, He Qixian woke up from his sleep. His body had never felt so light.
He saw Xiaoqiu holding his hand tightly and sleeping beside him. There was also a sleeping dog lying on the ground.
On the other bed next to them, Xiao Yihan was still sleeping. Old Master He was so moved that he shed tears. These two children were really good kids. It was worth his love for them.
Chu Jingqiu was awakened by her grandfather. She looked at him in surprise: "Grandpa, you're awake. Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
Xiao Yihan also woke up. He jumped out of bed excitedly, then realized he wasn't wearing shoes. He quickly put them on and ran over. "Grandpa He, you're awake. How are you feeling? I'll go call a doctor for you."
After saying that, without waiting for Grandpa He to speak, he ran out to call a doctor. When the doctor came in, Grandpa He was walking around on the ground in high spirits, and Jiang Jiang was running after him excitedly.
Chu Jingqiu chased after him anxiously, "Old He, you just started to disobey and run around again. Lie down on the bed quickly, hurry up!"
The doctor shook his head speechlessly. He smiled and said, "Mr. He, you recovered so quickly, it's a miracle. To be honest, in this situation, we would most likely not be able to save you. It's also thanks to your good health.
Lie down and rest! We'll do another checkup tomorrow, and if you're fine after two days of observation, we'll discharge you."
Old Master He had no choice but to lie down on the bed again. Xiao Yihan asked Chu Jingqiu to go to bed and sleep for a while while he would accompany Old Master He.
Old Master He waved his hand and said, "Yihan, I'm fine now, really fine. You can go back and rest. Let Xiaoqiu stay here alone."
Chu Jingqiu smiled and said, "Grandpa, let him stay with you. He's not a stranger. He'll be worried about us when he goes back. I feel more at ease having him here."
Mr. He no longer insisted and asked Xiao Yihan to sit by the bed and watch over him.
Early in the morning, when Chu Jingqiu woke up from her sleep, she found that there was no one on the bed opposite her, even Jiang Jiang was gone.
She hurried to the window and looked down, and found that Mr. He was exercising outside, Xiao Yihan was standing next to him, and Jiang Jiang was also squatting there watching him.
She quickly washed her face and put on some simple nude makeup to cover up her slightly pale face.
Then she braided her hair into the style Zhang Pingping had given her. In fact, she could braid her hair in various ways, but she was afraid of exposing her waist, so she had never done such a hairstyle.
After putting on my coat, I went downstairs to call a few people up. As soon as I returned to the ward, my grandmother and my parents came over with lunch boxes.
They couldn't believe their eyes when they saw the energetic old man playing with the dog by the bed.
This is the dying old man who was sentenced to death by the doctor yesterday. Now he is laughing and teasing the dog with a rosy face.
When Mr. He saw them coming in, he shouted, "Pei Lan, you're here so early! I'm fine now. I feel relaxed all over. If there's nothing wrong, I can be discharged today."
Li Peilan happily wiped her tears, "Really? Did Director Huang allow you to be discharged from the hospital?"
Chu Jingqiu took the lunch box and said as she set the table, "Grandma, Dad, Mom, don't listen to him. He's said he wants to be discharged many times since he woke up, but the doctor never agreed."
Xiao Yihan smiled and said, "Grandma He, I think Grandpa He has recovered quite well. He just did some boxing in the yard. You don't have to worry. He will probably be discharged soon.
Chu Jingqiu gave the buns and eggs to Xiao Yihan, brought out two small vegetarian dishes and placed them on the table, and then served him a bowl of porridge and asked him to eat first.
When Mr. He saw that there was only a bowl of rice soup in front of him, with no rice in it, he hurriedly said, "Xiao Qiu, where are my buns and eggs?"
Chu Jingqiu smiled slightly and said softly, "Grandpa, Yihan asked the doctor. You just had your stomach washed yesterday. Today you can only drink liquid food without residue. This is the rice oil I made specially for you. You can only eat this today."
Mr. He pouted unhappily and said, "I'm really fine. Why don't you believe me? I'm starving. I think I can eat ten cows right now."
He Manwen looked at him with amusement, "Dad, Xiaoqiu is right. Your gastric mucosa is damaged and needs to recover slowly. Just eat some liquid food today!"
Mr. He had no choice but to slowly drink his rice soup.
After dinner, Mr. He clamored to be discharged from the hospital. He didn’t want to stay here because it was too depressing.
Just when he was clamoring to be discharged from the hospital, Mr. and Mrs. Xiao brought Xiao Yihan's parents over.
When Mr. Xiao saw the lively He Qixian, he was also shocked. "Old He, you're hello, haha, that's great, you old man, you almost scared me to death, I thought you were going to see Marx!"
Grandma Xiao also wiped her tears happily, "That's great, that's great, Old He is so lucky, it was so dangerous yesterday, he almost didn't make it."
Chu Jingqiu walked up to a few people and greeted the elders softly, "Grandpa Xiao, Grandma Xiao, Uncle Xiao, Aunt Xiao, hello, thank you for your concern and care over the past two days." After that, he bowed deeply to the elders.
Only then did a few people remember that Xiaoqiu was also there. They hadn't seen Chu Jingqiu for several years. Now, seeing this girl who was as beautiful as a peach or plum and as beautiful as a fairy who was not of this world, they were all stunned.
Grandma Xiao smiled from ear to ear. She pulled Chu Jingqiu aside and said, "Xiaoqiu, I haven't seen you for several years. You are even more beautiful than when you were a child. If I saw you on the street, I would not recognize you. You are as beautiful as a fairy in a painting."
Xiao Yihan's mother, Cai Xiaozhu, smiled gently. She held Chu Jingqiu's hand tightly and said, "Xiaoqiu, I have never seen a girl as beautiful as you. Our Yihan is so lucky. If he dares to bully you, tell your aunt and I will punish him."
