The atmosphere was particularly peaceful when suddenly, Yu Minglangâs phone rang. Xiao Qian didnât want to deal with this mood-killing call, but accidentally touched the phone under her pillow, and the call connected.
âMing Lang, thereâs a problem.â
Xiao Qian rolled her eyes and subtly flipped off Yu Minglang.
Canât there be any trust between people anymore?
Yu Minglang felt wronged but couldnât ignore the call, because the voice belonged to his eternally single Uncle Liu.
âGo ahead.â A frustrated Yu Xiaoqiang secretly cursed his contradictory uncle, wishing him bad luck with no toilet paper when he needed to use the restroom.
âAre you in Lin City now?â Uncle Liuâs voice sounded somewhat anxious.
âYes.â Yu Minglang immediately composed himself and sat up properly.
Seeing his serious face, Xiao Qian shook her head.
The reason for Yu Minglangâs instantaneous seriousness was due to Uncle Liu rarely revealing such emotionsâhow big of a matter could it be to cause Uncle Liu to become so serious?
âItâs not about work, but a personal request. The pesky old lady from my family has been hospitalized. Could you please help me check up on her? Iâm out of town for a meeting, and it would take me hours to get back by plane!â
âTell me the hospital address and room number.â
Hearing that the teacher was in trouble, Xiao Qian also became serious. After Yu Minglang hung up, Xiao Qian asked him,
âWhat happened to the teacher?â
âShe had a heart attack and is being resuscitated at the Third Hospital Emergency Center. Liu Li called Uncle Liu for help, but he canât make it in timeâQian Bao, you lie down for a while, Iâll go check it out.â
Although Uncle Liu already divorced, he still referred to Professor Liu as âthe old lady from his family.â It was clear he hadnât let go. Hearing the worry in his voice, Yu Minglang didnât dare to delay any longer and got up to leave.
âIâll go with you.â Upon hearing that their teacher had an emergency, Xiao Qian also decided to leave.
Because of the sudden incident, both of them hurried off, facing an impending crisis head-on.
Uncle Liu has always been very close to Yu Minglangâs family, and Professor Liu is Xiao Qianâs mentor. This not only involved him, but also her.
The two developed an understanding and drove in silence, rushing towards the hospital.
Xiao Qian only hoped that her teacher would be alright. Their teacher had always had heart problems, but the timing of her heart attack in this life was different from her previous one. She didnât know what the problem was, she just hoped everything would be fine.
After Xiao Qian reincarnated, many things were different from her past life. She didnât know what exactly was happening this time. Thankfully, Yu Minglang drove quickly and they soon reached the hospital where their teacherâs ward was located.
She was still being resuscitated, and her condition was critical. After Yu Minglang and Liu Li got a better understanding of the situation, they found the outlook wasnât promising. They had to look after Professor Liu and also comfort Xiao Qian.
Such is life. You never know when something will happen, and when it does, all you can do is copeâyou canât avoid it.
In this unsettling time, they hoped for the best.
Outside the ward, people came and went. When one fell ill, all the wealth and status in the world became irrelevant. Xiao Qian wanted nothing more than for her beloved teacher to be safe.
Yu Minglang could feel her anxiety and silently held her hand, hoping to give her some courage.
He wished to face every obstacle with her.
