Be in low spirits

After hearing this, Yang Lin looked at Ye Fan and wanted to ask for leave to go back with him. Gu Jinluo comforted him, "Don't worry, Yao'er still has me with her, and they only said that she was sent to the hospital, it may not be a big deal."

"Yes, you don't have to worry too much, Luoluo is here." At the dinner table, Ye Fan had never expected such a thing to happen.

Yao'er didn't want him to worry, so she adjusted her expression, patted his shoulder and said, "Ji Huai, don't worry, it may not be a problem."

Since everyone said so, he had nothing else to say and could only nod and accept it.

In the study, Ye Fan asked Gu Jinluo: "Did they only say on the phone that he was sent to the hospital?"

"Actually, the original words were that grandpa was in poor health and had been sent to the hospital. I was afraid that Yaoer wouldn't be able to accept it for a while, so I didn't tell her the whole story, but I asked my brother to find the best doctor to see him." She was also worried that if she couldn't make it back in time, Yaoer would blame her for the rest of her life.

"Everyone has their own destiny. Her grandfather is old. This matter has nothing to do with you. There is no need to blame yourself." She has been looking worried ever since he came back from the garrison.

She was still worried, what if something really happened? Everyone couldn't sleep well that night.

The four of them said goodbye at the train station and went their separate ways. Ye Fan hugged the person and said, "When you return to Jinghua, remember to call the General's Mansion to report your safety."

"Well, you should also take a good rest. Don't always be so busy with military affairs that you forget to eat."

"Luoluo, wait for me in Jinghua. Things in Xiazhou will be dealt with soon." He was still a little reluctant and kissed her forehead, unwilling to let her go.

"Okay, I'll wait for you." There were people coming and going in the train station, and the two couples just hoped that time would pass as slowly as possible.

After returning to Jinghua, Gu Lang sent a car to wait for them at the train station. After getting off the train, the two went straight to the hospital.

Grandpa was still lying on the hospital bed, Yaoer was guarding by the bed, and Gu Jinluo pulled the doctor to find out the situation.

"The patient's condition is not optimistic and he is too old. Even if he undergoes surgery, there is a high probability that he will not be able to get off the operating table." The doctor is from the International Red Cross and has good medical skills.

Although I already had a rough idea in my mind, it was still hard to accept when the doctor said this in person. "If you don't have surgery, how long can you last?"

"They are so old, they may only survive for a few days, so let them be prepared." The doctor issued an ultimatum.

Sitting in the corridor of the hospital, Gu Jinluo didn't know how to tell Yao'er about this. She felt that if she hadn't brought people to follow Ye Fan and the others in the army, perhaps this wouldn't have happened.

When Gu Lang rushed to the hospital from the office, he saw her sitting there alone with a sad face.

"Luo'er, what's wrong?" He sat down next to her, put his hand on her shoulder, and handed her the snacks he brought back from the hotel kitchen.

"Brother, what if, I mean what if something really happens, what will happen to Yaoer in the future?" She was still very unsure, and hadn't told Yaoer inside yet.

"Eat something first and go back to rest. I'll let Aunt Liu take care of these things. Don't worry, I'll have someone take you back."

"No, I have to stay with her." It was already dark and the two hadn't eaten yet.

Yaoer came out of the ward. Gu Jinluo grabbed the box of snacks, stood up and said, "Yaoer, are you hungry? Eat something?"

Yao'er shook her head and said, "Luoluo, Master Gu, you two should go back and rest first. I will stay with Grandpa here."

"Yao'er, I..." Gu Jinluo wanted to say something, but Gu Lang pulled her to sit down and said to Yao'er, "Miss Su, I will send two servants here. Aunt Liu is old and tired these days, so I asked her to go back and rest. She will prepare breakfast and bring it over tomorrow morning. She will tell you about some of the conditions the doctor mentioned tomorrow. If you are tired, you can go back and rest. The servants are here, and the hospital will call me in time if there is any situation. Luoluo and I will take you to the hospital then, so don't worry too much."

"Thank you, Young Master Gu. You have already helped our family so much. We cannot trouble you anymore. I can take care of the rest myself." Yao'er felt guilty for not taking good care of her grandfather for so long after she ran away. She would also feel guilty if she let the Gu family take care of him like this.

"No, you can't. You've been sitting on the train for such a long time alone, and you have to stay here with grandpa for such a long time. It must be tiring." Gu Jinluo was very anxious, afraid that she would fall down again.

"Luoluo, you guys have helped me enough. I don't want to trouble you anymore. Besides, I also want to spend more time with Grandpa."

"Okay, if you have anything, you must call me immediately."

Gu Jinluo left the food in the lunch box to Yaoer, and Gu Lang took his sister back to Guxiang Apartment. Listening to her calling Ye Fan, he felt uncomfortable and went upstairs.

After waking up and having breakfast, she wanted to go see Yao'er, but Gu Lang stopped her and said, "My uncle hasn't been feeling well lately. I'll go back to Anjiang with you after Miss Su finishes her business."

"What happened to Dad? What did the doctor say?" When she mentioned her father, her heart began to hang in the air.

"They just said that the condition has worsened. They didn't say anything specific. The condition can be controlled by taking medicine these days." Gu Lang has been in Jinghua for a long time. It's time to go back and check on his father.

She sat on the dining chair in the living room, looking at the camellia tree on the balcony that was taken care of by Liu Ma. Her father was always like this, never telling her anything and always deliberately keeping a distance from her in everything.

"Why doesn't he inform me of these things? It's always like this. What should I do if something really happens?" She rested her chin on the table and drew circles on the table with her right index finger.

Gu Lang adjusted the cuffs of his suit and said, "Come with me today to look at the mall's historical accounts and attend a few meetings. Didn't you say you wanted to take over two malls? It's a good opportunity to learn."

"No, I have to go to the hospital to see Grandpa and Yao'er."

Gu Lang walked to the dining table, sat down next to her, patted her shoulder and advised: "Luo'er, there are many people like Miss Su, we can't help them all. After all, you are different. We can help you temporarily, but not forever. If you go over now, you may not be able to help much, and you may even cause more trouble. There is Aunt Liu."

Grandpa stayed in the hospital for two days, but finally couldn't hold on and passed away. Yang Lin rushed back to Jinghua to take care of grandpa's funeral for Yaoer, and Gu Jinluo also accompanied her.

More than half a month after his grandfather left, Ye Fan also dealt with Xiazhou's military affairs and returned to Jinghua to report.

After completing the military report, he could not wait to apply to his third uncle for marriage with Gu Jinluo. Ye Liangyun did not respond directly, but only said that he would seek the opinion of his cousin.

Because of the tense border war and the tight arms transportation these days, Gu Lang has been going in and out of the chairman's office every day. In addition to the trivial business matters, he has no time to take care of Gu Jinluo's whereabouts. He just instructs the guards to follow him in time.

After the opera concert ended in the evening, he took Gu Jinluo to the creek to go boating, looking forward to their married life.

"I have to go back to Anjiang before getting married. Dad's condition has become more serious, and my brother has been very busy recently. If it's not possible, I have to go back first."

The two sat in the cabin, snuggling with each other.

"I'll go back with you. We should find a chance to formally greet my father-in-law. Also, haven't I told you many times to call him cousin, not brother? Why can't you remember?"

"If we really get married, you will call me brother. Why are you still jealous?" The weather was getting warmer, and more people were walking along the river.

"Luoluo, how long have we not seen each other? My mother also wants to meet her daughter-in-law. Can I pick you up at the apartment and take you to the general's residence tomorrow? Um...if it's convenient for you, can you pack a few sets of clothes?"

"No, my brother is watching me. Besides, if I go home late tonight, Aunt Liu will complain to my brother again." Every time she talked about this, she felt like a canary trapped in a cage.

"Then I'll go find you. Don't worry, with my skills, Aunt Liu won't find out." He didn't sleep well for more than half a month since she was away. Now, he couldn't leave her anymore.

"Come to think of it, that day at General Xiazhou's Mansion, I was drunk, and you did something in the study?" She had always felt something was wrong. After Butler Hou cleaned up the study, he seemed to be hesitant to talk to her. Only after he came back did she remember some fragments.

Speaking of this, he felt embarrassed, his eyes rolled, and he stammered: "...You...you said it was in the study, I couldn't stop you, Madam's words...I naturally have to obey..."

She frowned, punched his chest with her fist, and complained, "Why are you like this? If you get pregnant, won't you break your promise?"
