âMommy, I donât want to go back. I want to stay with Uncle. You guys go back first! Iâll look after him.â
Ying Bao felt like she had a responsibility on her shoulders. She couldnât leave Huangfu Xuanye behind.
Jing Xi couldnât persuade her daughter to leave, so she came to persuade Tang Feimo. âFeimo, why donât you go back? You canât stay in the hospital and do whatever you need to do in class tomorrow.â
âMrs. Jing, you should go back with Uncle Huo. I want to stay with Cherry.â
Tang Feimo stubbomly insisted on staying. Jing Xi could not say anything else. âOkay then. Iâll come back tomorrow morning to take over. Call me if anything happens.â
âOkay, Mommy.â
âDonât worry, Iâll take good care of Cherry.â
Before leaving, Jing Xi turned to look at the three people in the ward.
If Ying Bao had not made a choice between the two of them, the answer was obvious now!
Sometimes, it was hard for her to see her heart clearly. Only when something happened could she see herself clearly.
But she did not know when Ying Bao would be able to see her heart clearly.
âWhat would happen to the three children?
Jing Xi sighed and tumed to leave with Huo Yunshen.
In the ward, after midnight, Ying Bao stayed by the bed, feeling a little sleepy. Tang Feimo was also a little tired.
Tang Feimo fell asleep on the sofa in the middle of the night. Ying Bao also fell asleep on the bed.
The person on the bed finally woke up. Huangfu Xuanye opened his eyes. The tightness in his chest had been relieved, but he felt weak and could not exert any strength.
He looked at the ceiling and the environment of the room. After recognizing that he was in the hospital, he wanted to move his arm, but he felt his arm being pressed down.
He looked down and saw Ying Bao sleeping in front of him.
Half of her face was exposed, and her soft hair covered her face. She was sleeping soundly.
âWhen Huangfu Xuanye realized that she had been by his side the whole time, he felt as if his heart had been struck by a soft blow. He was very touched to have her by his side.
He lifted his hand and gently helped her push a strand of hair away, but it woke her up.
Ying Bao felt an itch on her cheek. She opened her eyes and realized it was Huangfu Xuanye. She sat up in surprise. âUncle⦠youâre awakeâ¦â
Ying Bao rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at him happily.
âTm fine. Donât worry.â
Huangfu Xuanye shook his head and smiled. The expression on his face was always so calm.
The moment he spoke, he said that he was fine even though he was sick.
Ying Bao was devastated and could not help but cry again.
âWhy are you crying again?â
Huangfu Xuanye wiped her tears with his long fingers and comforted her, âArenât I fine? Why are you crying?â
âYou were sick, but you never told me.â
âTm sorry, I just found out. But donât worry, itâs not a big problem.â
The more casual he sounded, the more heartbroken Ying Bao felt.
âUncleâ¦â
Just like when she was little, she threw herself into his arms and sobbed.
Huangfu Xuanye stroked her hair and patted her back gently, coaxing her.
He really wanted to pull her into his arms, but when he saw Tang Feimo lying on the sofa, he quietly lowered his hand.
He shouldnât yearn for something that didnât belong to him.
Ying Bao sat up and asked, âUncle, are you feeling better now?â
âMuch better.â
The two of them stared at each other. In the end, Huangfu Xuanye said, âIf youâre tired, you can continue to sleep on your stomach. Iâll watch over you.â
