Chapter 342: A Long Wait (1)
As she was feeling excited and ready to smile brilliantly at him, Xiangyi turned around and walked into the ward.
Shi Nuannuan smiled stiffly as she pouted and narrowed her eyes in dissatisfaction as she stared at Xiangyi entering the ward.
It was only until the door to the ward was closed behind him that the mother and daughter sighed sadly.
They did not know anything about the current situation at all.
“Mommy, you should go back and rest. I will wait here and I will tell you as soon as Weiyi wakes up,” Shi Nuannuan said as she looked at Shen Lanzhi.
She was indeed very tired for the past few days. She had stayed up late every night and gotten up early every morning to prepare food for Shi Yuting and her daughter to eat. Perhaps, this was because she simply felt too guilty about Zuo Weiyi after leaving her behind in Country Z.
As she glanced at her daughter, Shen Lanzhi shook her head before she smiled slightly. “I am fine.”
“Oh, Mommy! You will not be able to do anything if you stay here anyway. You should go back and rest or take a nap. I promise I will let you know as soon as Weiyi wakes up!”
Her persistence left Shen Lanzhi speechless and somehow felt that her daughter was right. Even if she stayed here, there was nothing that she could do. She could not even enter the ward either. If she continued to wait outside the ward, this seemed to be a bit contrived.
As she thought about this, Shen Lanzhi listened to her daughter’s advice and headed home to rest.
For three days in a row, Zuo Yi had already pushed aside all major national affairs relating to the country. He had been staying in the ward for three consecutive days, and he only went home occasionally to take a shower and change into a new set of clothes. After that, he would spend most of his day at the ward, waiting for Zuo Weiyi to wake up.
However, his granddaughter showed no signs of waking up at all even though three days had passed.
Zuo Yi glanced at Shi Yuting who had not closed his eyes or eaten anything at all for the past three days and nights. He simply stayed guarded by Zuo Weiyi’s bed, refusing to leave her even for a moment. Perhaps, other people would be touched by this scene but Shi Yuting could not move Zuo Yi’s heart at all.
The reason why his granddaughter was injured was all because of him.
There was also the incident the last time when Zuo Weiyi almost lost her life because she thought that Shi Yuting had gotten engaged to Tengtang Xi. He had not forgotten any of this.
“Mr. Shi, the mistress asked me to deliver this to you.”
Xiangyi said in a soft and low voice as he walked to the bedside and looked at Shi Yuting.
Shi Yuting did not respond or say anything but he simply stared at Zuo Weiyi blankly.
In fact, Xiangyi knew very well that no one would be able to force him to eat if he did not want to eat. Therefore, he did not say anything else but he simply placed the thermos on the table.
This was the first time that he had ever seen Shi Yuting looking so haggard and desperate. Gu Yansheng felt a little shock when he saw Shi Yuting who looked like he had already lost all the authority and charm that he used to have.
Later at noon, Xiangyi walked out of the ward only to find Shi Nuannuan sitting all by herself on the lounge chair along the corridor. His heart wavered a little when he saw her.
He walked over to Shi Nuannuan who was feeling a little bored. She was holding the sides of her chair as she swung her feet back and forth from time to time, and she looked like a very innocent and lively child.
Xiangyi stared at Shi Nuannuan for a short while as he was lost in his thoughts for a moment.
When Shi Nuannuan felt as though someone was approaching her, she subconsciously raised her head, only to see Xiangyi standing about one meter away from her.
As soon as she saw him, Shi Nuannuan stood up immediately as she said, “Xiangyi!”
It wasn’t until she had called out to Xiangyi that he suddenly came to his senses and said, “Miss, why haven’t you gone home yet?”
As soon as she heard his words, Shi Nuannuan lowered her head disappointedly. After that, she sighed as she replied, “I am worried about Weiyi.” Shi Nuannuan suddenly looked at Xiangyi and asked, “Has she woken up?”
Xiangyi shook his head slightly when he saw the worried expression on her face and said, “No, not yet.”
