"Your husband is here to find you."

As the servant's words echoed in his ears, Ji Xingchen froze and felt inexplicably guilty.

I lost track of time while playing last night, wouldn't Lu Yanbei be angry?

She coughed dryly: "I know."

The servant said: "Miss Ji, please finish your breakfast before leaving."

Ji Xingchen shook his head: "No, my husband is still waiting for me outside. Let's go first. When your lady wakes up, tell her that I will go home first."

The servant nodded: "Okay, Miss Ji."

After thinking about it, she added, with a hint of envy in her tone: "Ms. Ji, your husband is so kind to you. He came to pick you up at midnight last night, but he didn't let us wake you up. I

I think he must want you to sleep more."

Ji Xingchen paused in raising his feet, then turned around and asked, "Did you just say that he came here at midnight last night?"

"Well, it's not midnight, just around four o'clock." The servant replied.

Ji Xingchen pursed his lips and said, "Okay, thank you, I understand."

When she walked out of Gu's house, she immediately saw the black Maybach parked at the gate of the villa.

The car window was half-open, the man closed his eyes slightly, crossed his arms and leaned on the back of the chair, showing a bit of fatigue in his brows.

Ji Xingchen couldn't help but slow down, put his hands on the car window, and bent over to look at the people in the car.

Until the man slowly opened his eyes, she still felt that she hadn't seen enough.

Lu Yanbei sat up straight, his eyelids slightly raised, his eyes still showing sleepiness, and his voice was hoarse: "Get in the car."

Ji Xingchen curled his lips, walked around to the other side and got in the car.

He fastened his seat belt and asked casually, "How did you know I was at Gu's house?"

Lu Yanbei glanced at her, stretched out his hand to hold her chin, and rubbed his lips with his fingertips: "Besides the Qi family and the Gu family, do you have any other friends?"

Ji Xingchen: "..."

In the circle of celebrities in Beicheng, most of them are superficial sisters, and because she has a bad personality, she doesn't even have superficial sisters.

There are really only two friends, Qi Yue and Gu Yao.

She hummed, "When did you come?"

Lu Yanbei retracted his hand and looked forward. The car started slowly, accompanied by the man's unique hoarse and indifferent voice.

"Just arrived."

When Ji Xingchen heard this, the corners of his lips curved up, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Just arrived?"

"Um."

Ji Xingchen looked at the man's handsome profile for a long time, and the curvature of his lips gradually deepened.

She did not expose Lu Yanbei, but kept smiling with her lips pursed.

Lu Yanbei turned his head and glanced at her: "What are you so happy about?"

Ji Xingchen said with a smile: "If nothing happens, can't I still laugh?"

Lu Yanbei made a "tsk" sound and stepped on the accelerator.

The car speed suddenly increased.

Ji Xingchen tightened his seat belt, his heart pounding.

After arriving home, Ji Xingchen began to study her jewelry design. After the exhibition, she had no new works. There will be a design exhibition in country M next winter, and she will participate in it.

Lu Yanbei has been very busy these days, leaving early and returning late. Ji Xingchen thought he had returned to the Lu family, so he started to get busy and didn't ask any questions.

Until one night, she suddenly received a call from Ji Chang.

What Ji Chang said on the phone was simple, "Miss, please come to the neighboring city quickly. I'm in the emergency room."

At the end, he added: "Young lady, just do it by yourself, don't tell anyone else."

After Ji Xingchen hung up the phone, he went directly to the yard to pick up the car. The neighboring city was not far from Beicheng. It took about four hours to drive there.

Ji Xingchen couldn't describe how she felt during the past four hours.

It was as if her emotions and her heart didn't belong to her, she was being pushed around like a machine.

The car was going very fast and ran through more than a dozen traffic lights in the city. She had no time to look at Xia and went all the way to the hospital where she saw Ji Chang and the four big words "Rescue" above the operating room.

Only then did Ji Xingchen's body regain consciousness.

Her body was trembling and her eyes were red: "Uncle Ji, what's wrong with my dad!"

Ji Chang held her arm, fearing that she might not be able to stand firmly, "Don't worry, Miss, I just had a sudden heart attack and it's an old problem."

Ji Xingchen felt that things were not that simple. She kept looking at the words "rescuing" and drove all the way here. She was highly concentrated, but she didn't feel tired at all. She just felt that her entire nerves were together.

Ji Chang sighed and helped Ji Xingchen sit up on a chair in the hospital corridor.

Ji Xingchen felt cold all over and finally found his voice: "Uncle Ji, why didn't I know that my dad has this problem?"

Ji Changdao: "Your dad won't let me tell you. He hasn't been in good health in the past two years. He's also afraid that you'll worry."

Ji Xingchen clenched his fists, his lips were horribly white, and his eyes contained deep worry and deep hatred for himself.

Ji Rusong was in poor health and had been for more than two years. But her daughter didn't even notice.

Ji Xingchen's face was pale and bloodless. Ji Chang looked a little worried, "Miss..."

Before he finished speaking, the lights in the emergency room went out, and someone opened the door and came out.

Ji Xingchen stood up suddenly and grabbed the doctor's cuff eagerly: "Doctor, how is my dad? Is he okay?"

The doctor took off his mask: "Don't worry, the dangerous period has passed. Patients with this disease are most afraid of exertion. Please pay attention in the future. The passage has been transferred to a single ward. You can go directly there to see him, but the movements should be smaller. The patient has just undergone surgery."

I need to rest after the operation."

Ji Xingchen's clenched heart finally relaxed, but his eyes were still worried, and there was still deep fear inside.

Ji Chang took her to Ji Rusong's exclusive ward.

Ji Xingchen stood by the bed, looking at Ji Rusong lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and finally couldn't hold back and shed tears silently.

Ji Rusong has aged a lot. He used to have only white hair on his temples, but now his hair is all white. His face is old and he no longer has the relaxation he had before.

Ji Chang stood aside. He was a rough man and didn't know how to comfort others, so he stayed with him like this.

After a long time, Ji Xingchen wiped away his tears, tucked Ji Rusong into bed, turned around and called Ji Chang: "Uncle Ji, I have something to ask you."

Ji Chang knew what she wanted to ask, nodded and motioned for her to follow him out.

The two of them walked to the stairs of the hospital. It was quiet and dark here.

Ji Chang closed the door at the top of the stairs, turned around and said, "What do you want to ask, Miss?"

Ji Xingchen swallowed even more and slowed down his breathing, "Did something happen to Mr. Ji?"

After a pause, she added: "Is my father's illness this time related to Ji's family?"

Ji Chang was silent for a long time before speaking: "Yes."

Ji Rusong didn't allow himself to tell the eldest lady about his illness, but he had stayed in the Ji family for so many years and he had watched the eldest lady grow up. This time Ji Rusong's illness was much more serious than before. If he had been sent to her a step later,

Almost dead.

If I didn't tell the eldest lady, if something happened, the eldest lady would hate the master and him to death.
