Ye Ziyu learned about Xingxing's hospitalization from Ye Chenhan. After picking up the children from Di Mingjue in the afternoon, she waited in the living room for Ye Shaoting to bring Xingxing back.
It wasn't until late at night when Ye Chenhan returned that she found out. Ye Chenhan wasn't entirely clear about Xingxing's condition, only that he had a fever and was receiving an injection at the hospital. He also didn't know when he would return.
Seeing that it was already very late, Ye Ziyu had to abandon the idea of going to the hospital to see Xingxing. After all, Ye Shaoting had personally said he hoped to strengthen their bond by taking care of Xingxing.
Back in the room, Ye Ziyu lay listlessly on the bed. The bedding pressed beneath her as she stared blankly at the ceiling lamp.
Di Mingjue emerged from the bathroom and looked at Ye Ziyu sprawled out like a starfish, "What's this?"
"Xingxing is in the hospital," Ye Ziyu informed him weakly.
So, it was because of him!
Di Mingjue walked to the bedside, lifted her up, pushed the quilt aside with one hand, laid her flat on the bed, and covered her properly. "Ye Shaoting is with him at the hospital; he'll be fine."
"I know, but I can't help but worry," Ye Ziyu said, raising her hand to cover her eyes.
Actually, she had been harboring something in her heart, but she didn't know how to tell Di Mingjue.
Rubbing the back of her hand, Di Mingjue gently comforted her, "If you can't put your mind at ease, shall I change and take you to the hospital now?"
Now?
It was already very late. If they didn't rest, Ye Shaoting and Xingxing at the hospital also needed to rest.
Ye Ziyu removed her arm from her eyes and reached out to hook Di Mingjue's neck.
"What should I do? I've realized I can't leave you."
No matter what she wanted to do, Di Mingjue followed her without complaint. In this relationship, she felt more like she was enjoying it, enjoying Di Mingjue's meticulous care.
Di Mingjue looked down at Ye Ziyu beneath him and proposed with a roguish grin, "Kiss me?"
"Okay," Ye Ziyu replied, then proactively lifted her head and kissed Di Mingjue's lips.
The first time!
Di Mingjue's bones melted. His scarlet eyes met Ye Ziyu's, who was so close, and he took back the initiative.
As their emotions reached their peak, Ye Ziyu surrendered her body and actively responded to Di Mingjue's movements.
The branches outside swayed in the wind, while the figures within the room merged with their reflections on the glass.
The next day, at the hospital entrance.
Ye Ziyu got out of the car and looked at the pedestrians who were also visiting patients. She vexedly patted her head, "I should have bought something."
"I've already prepared it," Di Mingjue said, opening the trunk.
Before Ye Ziyu woke up that morning, Di Mingjue had anticipated her visiting Xingxing. He had Shen Lin buy gifts in advance and put them in the trunk.
"It's great to have you," Ye Ziyu said, coming up to Di Mingjue and affectionately hooking his arm.
Sensing her reliance, Di Mingjue couldn't help but tease, "Then you better stay by my side."
"Let's go in quickly!" Ye Ziyu pulled him towards the hospital lobby.
If they didn't go in soon, he would keep chattering and wouldn't leave.
After learning Xingxing's room number at the service desk, they took the elevator.
"Big Brother."
"Why are you here?"
Entering the hospital room, Ye Ziyu looked at Xingxing, who was still fast asleep on the bed. She asked, "How is Xingxing? What did the doctor say after the examination?"
"It's a common infectious cold, and his fever has broken," Ye Shaoting recounted.
Relieved to know he was alright, Ye Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief. She took the gifts from Di Mingjue and placed them on the table. "I just dropped by to see him. I have to go to the company later. Big Brother, will you stay at the hospital to accompany Xingxing?"
"He's been admitted for treatment, and I'll be working at the hospital these few days. I'll trouble you to keep an eye on things at the company during this time," Ye Shaoting instructed.
