Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 124 Everyone Comes.

“He...In one or two days.” Yi Yunrui replies in a low voice.

“Oh.” Xia Ning responds. She knows she should not ask about something, but she can’t help asking when she sees Baoer’s condition. She gives a stealthy glance at Yi Yunrui and finds that he frowns seriously. Her heart tightens, suddenly realizing some reasons.

They are asked to go outside by the nurse in case there are too many people in the room disturbing the patient. Xia Ning looks through the glass at Li Baoer who is sleeping. She is worried about her.

At the time, her phone rings. Xia Ning looks at it and finds that it is Gu Luan calling.

God. She is so sad that she forgets to call back Gu Luan.

“Director Gu. We have found Baoer. She is in the ICU of Princess Margaret Hospital. Sorry. I haven’t reported to you until now.”

“ICU? What happened to Baoer?”

“She is injured in her brain. The doctor says that it is serious and she is going to have an operation tomorrow.”

“Noted. You may stay at the hospital to look after her. Don’t worry about work. I will be there after finishing my work.”

“Hum. Thank you, Director Gu.”

Xia Ning hangs up. She glances at the time. It is already noon.

“Ning, let’s go out to eat something.” Yi Yunrui pats on her back.

“I want to stay here. Look, Baoer is alone here by herself. What a poor girl.” Through the glass, she sees that Li Baoer is pale with a lot of medical equipment by her side. Xia Ning doesn’t have any mood to have lunch.”

“Then, I will stay here with you. What do you want to have? I will ask Feng to buy some.”

Xia Ning shakes her head: “Whatever.”

“What about noodles?”

“Hum. Fine.”

Yi Yunrui frowns. He wants to speak something but he swallows back the words on the tip of his tongue. He turns to tell Feng Le: “Go to buy a beef noodle soup.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Feng Le hurriedly runs away and soon he takes back two bowls of hot beef noodle soup. Xia Ning doesn’t want to eat. However, Yi Yunrui tries and tries again and successfully makes her reluctantly finish almost half a bowl. Then, Yi Yunrui takes over the bowl and finishes the rest.

Xia Ning is stunned. It looks so natural for Yi Yunrui to take over the bowl from her and finish the noodles. Seeing this, Xia Ning feels sweet.

Soon, Li Baoer’s parents arrive. Her mother looks worried. When she sees Baoer in the patient room, she loses control of her emotion and burst into tears.

Li Baoer’s father holds her: “Sweetheart, our daughter just has a small injury. Don’t be so worried. Don’t cry. She is going to have an operation tomorrow and she will be fine after that. We have to look after her so we can’t collapse now.”

The mother holds the father’s hand. She can’t stop tearing, but she tries her best to restrain herself. She asks Xia Ning: “Ning, what happened to Baoer? Why is she injured?”

Xia Ning feels guilty: “Sorry, Auntie, it suddenly happened. I didn’t know...till now. I am not clear what on earth happened. I am really sorry.” Xia Ning’s eyes turn red and she can’t help tearing, too.

As to Baoer, she feels sorry.

Yi Yunrui holds her and pats on her back. He says to Li Baoer’s parents: “Uncle, Auntie, Zhongheng is out for a mission and he can’t come now. Please understand. As regards Baoer’s accident, I also have some responsibility. I am sorry.”

Li Baoer’s father gives a sigh. He comforts his wife, “As an army man, he has to protect the country. He doesn’t have other choices. We understand. As a matter of fact, Baoer is lucky to have friends like you. Her injury is not serious, right? She will be fine. All of us don’t need to worry. Baoer’s mom, don’t you think so?”

Li Baoer’s mother takes some deep breaths and replies: “Hum. Don’t worry. Baoer has been energetic like a boy ever since she was a little girl. She will be fine.”

They comfort the mother for a while. Xia Ning remembers something and says: “Uncle and Auntie, have you had lunch? Please eat some food first, so that you can look after Baoer.”

The parents don’t have the mood to eat, but they agree. Yi Yunrui asks Feng Le to buy two boxes of lunch for them.

The operation will be at ten tomorrow and it will take an hour. The doctor says that it is not a complicated one, but just to get rid of the clot and there won’t be any sequela. They give a sigh of relief.

They sit in front of the ICU and none wants to leave.

Xia Ning planned to stay at the hospital for the night, but considering that if she doesn’t leave, Yi Yunrui won’t leave either, so when it is twelve, she thinks that maybe she should go home for some rest.

When hesitating, she sees a tall man running to them, fast and hurriedly.

When he arrives, all of them are shocked!

It is Dai Zhongheng!

“Dad, Mom, Commander, Mrs. Yi!” Dai Zhongheng greets them briefly. He stands in front of the patient room and quietly stares at Li Baoer, clenching his fists.

Xia Ning finds that Dai Zhongheng only wears a sweater in the cold winter. He still has his uniform trousers on while his coat is missing.

She sees that Dai Zhongheng looks tired. She looks at him carefully and finds that he has some scratches!

“Colonel Dai.” Dai Ning asks, “Do you need to get some treatment for your wounds?”

Li Baoer’s parents are reminded by Xia Ning. They look at Dai Zhongheng and hurriedly call the nurse to help him to deal with the wounds.

“Sir, please come here, so that it will be convenient for me to deal with your wounds.” The nurse points forwards.

“Excuse me. It is nothing serious. I don’t need any treatment...”

“Zhongheng.” Yi Yunrui speaks, “Go to deal with your wounds first.”

Dai Zhongheng looks at Yi Yunrui and understands. He nods, and walks after the nurse.

“Ning.” Yi Yunrui says, “I will be back soon.”

“OK.” Xia Ning nods.

When Dai Zhongheng and Yi Yunrui leave, Gu Luan comes, followed by Wan Liqing.”

It is almost 1:00 AM at night. Xia Ning is surprised: “Director Gu, why do you come at this time?”

“Director Xia, Luan has just finished his work and comes here hurriedly.” Not waiting for Gu Luan to respond, Wan Liqing says.

“God. It is so late at night. Director, you don’t need to come.”

Gu Luan lifts his golden-frame glasses, saying:“Well, something happened unexpectedly, so I was busy. Are these Baoer’s parents? Hello, Uncle and Auntie.”

Li Baoer’s parents and Gu Luan have a brief conversation. The mother is moved: “It is so late but you still come here. My daughter is really lucky to have you.”

“Auntie, don’t worry. As regards that Baoer is injured, I will follow up.”

At the time, Yi Yunrui and Dai Zhongheng come back. When Wan Liqing sees Yi Yunrui, she is shocked blankly.
