Seeing Jiang Luochu's nonchalant expression, Li Ruo's expression grew increasingly serious: "Are you really alright? If you feel unwell, you should go to the hospital to get checked out."
But Jiang Luochu gently patted the back of Li Ruo's hand in response to her worries: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
After saying that, as if she didn't want to dwell on the issue any longer, she directly changed the subject: "By the way, I made your favorite corn and pork rib soup on the stove, try it."
As Jiang Luo spoke, he headed towards the kitchen.
Watching her retreating figure, Li Ruo felt a little uneasy and followed her.
Jiang Luo then skillfully took a bowl from the cupboard, opened the soup pot lid, and began to ladle soup.
However, seeing that her complexion was still somewhat unpleasant, Li Ruo's tightly furrowed brows never relaxed.
"Come on, have a taste!"
Hearing the woman's gentle voice, Li Ruo sighed.
After taking the soup bowl from her, he began to drink it under her hopeful gaze.
"Is it good?"
Jiang Luo stared intently at Li Ruo, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Tasting the familiar flavor, Li Ruo nodded and smiled slightly: "It's still the familiar taste."
"You're so sweet-talking."
Jiang Luo smiled and couldn't help but tease him.
But his hands didn't stop; he added another spoonful to Li Ruo's bowl.
Seeing her actions, Li Ruo shook her head, put down the soup bowl, and while getting gloves, put them on her hands: "Let's take it over and drink it together."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Luo nodded, then took the bowl and followed behind her.
After the two sat down at the table, Jiang Luo began to ask about the recent situation.
Li Ruo naturally only reported good news and not bad news, saying that everything was fine.
But just as the two were chatting, Jiang Luo's expression suddenly changed, he began to gasp for breath, and his face turned ashen.
Unexpectedly, she suddenly had a problem. Li Ruo's expression changed: "Mom, what's wrong? Mom..."
Jiang Luo's lips twitched a few times, but before she could speak, she fainted.
Seeing the person who had collapsed onto the chair, Li Ruo's mind went blank. Without thinking of anything else, she rushed over.
But no matter how she called out to him, Jiang Luo did not respond at all.
Just as Li Ruo was getting extremely anxious, she paused slightly and noticed the cell phone that had been forgotten on the dining table.
Coming to her senses, she picked up the phone with trembling hands and dialed Jiang Ze's number: "Brother, come quick, Mom has fainted."
At this moment, Li Ruo was completely at a loss and hurriedly told Jiang Ze everything in one go.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ze was taken aback for a moment, then quickly said, "Quick... take Mom to the hospital first. Ruoruo, don't worry, I'll be right there."
His reminder made Li Ruo realize what he meant.
After quickly hanging up the phone, she hoisted Jiang Luo onto her back and hurriedly headed for the car.
After settling her in the back seat, Li Ruo hurriedly went to the driver's seat, stepped on the gas, and the car drove off.
Unfortunately, misfortunes never come singly...
Just as she reached a fork in the road, the car suddenly stalled.
"How is this possible..."
She stared wide-eyed, but no matter how hard she pressed the ignition button, the car didn't respond at all.
Realizing this, Li Ruo became even more anxious and patted the steering wheel.
At the same time, Wen Huaiyan and Wen Zhi were sitting in the car, planning to go to the company for a meeting.
She spotted the familiar figure by the roadside almost immediately: "Is that Li Ruo? What's she doing there? There's a long line of cars behind her, why isn't she moving?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Huaiyan immediately raised his head.
Upon seeing Li Ruo looking anxious in the opposite lane, he immediately realized something was wrong: "Uncle Zhao, drive over there and see if something's wrong?"
The driver nodded slightly, then turned the steering wheel.
Upon hearing his order, Wen Zhi's eyes widened suddenly: "No, brother, we'll be late for the meeting later."
"Then let them wait."
Wen Huaiyan snorted coldly and said without hesitation.
The car came to a complete stop the next moment, and he got out without thinking.
"No, this won't do..."
Wen Zhi gasped, but before she could finish speaking, all she got in response was a loud slam on the door.
At that moment, Li Ruo's face turned pale, and she didn't know what to do, but suddenly she heard a knocking sound at the door.
She subconsciously turned her head, and what came into view was Wen Huaiyan's handsome face.
Without thinking, she rolled down the car window and said, "Wen Huaiyan, could you take my mother to the hospital? She fainted."
Seeing her so anxious for the first time, Wen Huaiyan was stunned. He subconsciously looked at Jiang Luo in the back seat and, without thinking, hurriedly bent down and picked her up.
Seeing this, Uncle Zhao rushed downstairs.
After settling Li Ruo and Jiang Luo in, Wen Huaiyan looked at Uncle Zhao.
"You stay here and call a towing company to get the car out. You can also take care of the follow-up work while you're at it."
After all, Uncle Zhao was an elder of the Wen family, so he naturally knew how to handle this kind of thing.
