Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009: It’s Because of What She Said That Day Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009: It’s Because of What She Said That Day Soon, they arrived at the hospital’s parking lot.
Hanjie had not let anyone follow them today, not even a driver.
As soon as he parked the car and turned off the engine, he looked towards Qin Youxuan, “Everything has been arranged. Ye Zhanxing’s ward is on the top floor. You can go directly from here to his VIP ward. After the visit, we can return the sa way, and it won’t alarm too many people.”
“…Didn’t you say yesterday that we should wait? How co everything is arranged so quickly?” Qin Youxuan, with her head lowered, fidgeted with the hem of her clothes, sowhat at a loss.
She was still not psychologically prepared to see Ye Zhanxing.
“Su Yiru was not lying; his illness is indeed serious. It was an internal injury to start with, and his emotional distress has made the condition worsen quickly. He was issued a critical condition notice yesterday, and Su Yiru had soone find Diwu Zexuan.”
With one hand on the steering wheel, Hanjie clasped her hand with his other hand, applying a slight pressure.
Catching a glimpse of her pale face, he unbuckled her seat belt with his long fingers and opened the car door.
“I’ll go with you.”
“…”
Qin Youxuan, stunned for a mont, followed him out of the car.
The way was clear and unobstructed.
They quickly arrived at Ye Zhanxing’s ward.
In the intensive care unit, it was so quiet that the drop of a needle could be heard.
Ye Zhanxing lay on the bed with only the beeping of machines next to him.
Since it was early in the morning, the hallway was also very quiet. Hanjie had already made the necessary arrangents, and as soon as they appeared, soone led them to change into sterile gowns before entering the ward.
“Mr. Jie, Miss Ye will be here soon. If you don’t want others to see, you should hurry,” the doctor, concerned, admonished. Hanjie waved his hand, indicating for the doctor to leave them alone.
The mont Qin Youxuan saw Ye Zhanxing, she could no longer think.
Her steps felt so heavy it seed she could not lift them, instinctively walking towards him.
Sitting in the chair beside the bed, she silently watched the sleeping Ye Zhanxing.
He had lost a lot of weight and looked haggard, as if he had aged a dozen years overnight. A patch of white hair had grown at his temples, and even his overnight stubble added a touch of dishevelnt.
This was nothing like his forr gentle, scholarly deanor.
Su Yiru said it was because of deep-seated guilt.
Was it because of the words she said that day?
If he really cared that much, why didn’t he trust her a little more back then, so her mother wouldn’t have gone to her grave with regrets.
“I haven’t forgiven you yet, so you can’t die. If you really feel guilty, you should keep living and properly repent. Otherwise, if you go on like this, Mom won’t want to see you either,” Youxuan spoke softly, her gaze fixed on Ye Zhanxing’s face.
Seeing him like this, her heart inexplicably felt a sour tightness.
Her eyes began to redden slightly.
A strong hand landed on her shoulder, and Qin Youxuan instinctively raised her head, crashing into Hanjie’s profound black eyes.
“I’m fine.”
Knowing he was worried, Qin Youxuan explained softly.
Hanjie didn’t say anything; he just narrowed his eyes and glanced at Ye Zhanxing on the bed.
He had been considered a mighty figure, yet his health had collapsed like a landslide, and now, he was struggling even to manage basic self-care.
“Yu’er…”
Ye Zhanxing seed to sense sothing, his lips suddenly twitched, uttering a few muffled words.
His eyelids moved, straining to open his eyes.
“If you don’t want him to know, you can leave now,” Hanjie warned Qin Youxuan ahead of ti.
No sooner had his words fallen than Ye Zhanxing clutched the bedsheets with both hands and clearly said, “Don’t go, Yu’er, don’t go…”
