Pushing open the hospital room door, a bright, snow-white room greeted them, with a young girl lying peacefully on the bed.
Qin Yusheng gestured for the doctor to conduct a basic physical examination on Fu Yanxue, focusing on the kidney area.
The doctor immediately presented the day's examination report. "Mr. Qin, as per your instructions, we have been examining Miss Shen daily. There are still no abnormalities, her vital signs are stable, but her brain remains unresponsive, showing no signs of waking." The doctor quickly explained, as Qin Yusheng hadn't visited for almost a week.
"Really nothing?" Qin Yusheng frowned.
The doctor mentioned that his kidneys were fine, but the symbiotic phenomenon of the original host had affected his kidneys, causing a slight reaction.
Why would Fu Yanxue's kidneys show no reaction?
A hint of disappointment flickered in Qin Yusheng's amber eyes.
He had thought that Fu Yanxue's kidneys showing a reaction would be a sign of her waking up.
It turned out to be a false hope.
After leaving the hospital, Qin Yusheng returned directly to Tan Gong.
Upon arriving at the mansion, he found that Zhao Shuyao had already left.
Zhao Shuyao drove to a hotel, stopping to buy roast chicken, her grandmother's favorite, along the way.
When she opened the door, she found Wu Guifen still engrossed in a soap opera.
"Grandma! You watch dramas all day and don't eat!" Zhao Shuyao frowned, suddenly understanding why Li Huiyun had to monitor Wu Guifen's drama-watching time.
Wu Guifen would forget about time when she got caught up in a drama, neglecting to eat.
"I'm not hungry, I'm not hungry..." Wu Guifen waved her hand and continued watching the drama.
Helpless, Zhao Shuyao placed the roast chicken on the coffee table and turned to enter the bathroom.
While washing her hands, a sudden scream of agony echoed from the living room.
Zhao Shuyao quickly turned off the faucet and rushed out of the bathroom.
In the living room, Wu Guifen still held the roast chicken. After just one bite, she collapsed onto the floor, curling up and writhing uncontrollably.
This was bad.
It must be acute gastroenteritis.
Wu Guifen had irregular eating habits, and the roast chicken was heavily seasoned, so her stomach couldn't handle even a bite.
"Grandma, don't move, I'll help you downstairs to the hospital." Zhao Shuyao threw away the roast chicken from Wu Guifen's hand, helped the elderly woman up, and headed for the door.
Due to the pain, Wu Guifen walked very slowly.
However, because the elderly woman was small and light, Zhao Shuyao found it easy to support her.
Wu Guifen sat in the back seat, still clutching her stomach, groaning in pain, her face completely drained of color.
Zhao Shuyao was extremely anxious, listening to her grandmother's cries, wishing she could share her pain.
In her haste, she took a wrong turn, ending up in a secluded area with very few cars around.
Just as Zhao Shuyao was about to turn back, she noticed the car slowly moving forward for a short distance before coming to a steady halt.
Completely immobile.
Damn it, it was out of gas!
Did Qin Yusheng never refuel the car!
Zhao Shuyao cursed, trying to start the car, but it wouldn't budge.
"Good girl, Yao Yao, why isn't it moving?" Wu Guifen, in too much pain to sit upright, was curled up in the back seat.
Zhao Shuyao's hands trembled with anxiety. She took out her phone, trying to comfort Wu Guifen, "It's okay, Grandma, we'll be at the hospital soon. Just lie down."
Zhao Shuyao pushed open the car door and called Jiang Shiyu, but her trembling fingers accidentally dialed Qin Yusheng's number. Unaware of her mistake, she directly put the phone to her ear.
It took a long time for the call to connect.
Strange, why was her "Poem Baby" taking so long to answer her call? She usually answered very quickly.
But she didn't have time to dwell on it. As soon as the call connected, Zhao Shuyao blurted out into the phone, "Poem Baby, I'm on Yun Jing Road, my car is out of gas and won't start. My grandma's stomach condition has flared up, and I can't find anyone to help. Hurry and drive over..."
As Zhao Shuyao finished speaking, tears began to fall, her voice choked with sobs.
There was a moment of silence on the other end before the call was hung up.
When Zhao Shuyao checked again, she realized she had dialed the wrong number.
She stared blankly at her phone for a moment before redialing Jiang Shiyu.
Unexpectedly, just as she ended the call, she saw a sports car approaching from down the road.
It was moving very fast.
Thinking it was some joyrider, she was surprised when the sports car smoothly stopped right in front of her with a swish.
The car window rolled down, revealing Qin Yusheng.
Seeing the man's stern face, Zhao Shuyao was stunned.
"What are you staring at? Do I need to invite you into the car?"
Qin Yusheng's cold voice carried a hint of roguishness.
He happened to be at the nearby Ren Ai Hospital. It had only taken him about five minutes to drive over.
"Okay..." Zhao Shuyao opened the car door, helped Wu Guifen into Qin Yusheng's back seat, and then sat in the passenger seat.
They went to the nearest Ren Ai Hospital.
After a series of examinations, including gastroscopy, Wu Guifen, lying on the hospital bed with an IV drip, had clearly recovered significantly. She was no longer in pain but was sleeping soundly.
Zhao Shuyao sat by the bedside, hearing footsteps behind her.
Thinking it was a doctor, she turned and saw Qin Yusheng.
The man was carrying a pot of stew and some rice, which he placed on the bedside table.
Zhao Shuyao looked up blankly, "Are you going to have lunch here?"
Qin Yusheng stared coldly at Zhao Shuyao for a moment, then said through gritted teeth, "Are you pretending or genuinely clueless? This is your lunch."
"Mine?" Zhao Shuyao glanced at the stew. "Did you poison it?"
Qin Yusheng was so exasperated by her that he almost laughed. "Fine, don't eat it if you don't want to!"
Just as he was about to throw it in the trash, Zhao Shuyao quickly stopped him. "I'll eat it, I'll eat it! I love it, give it to me!"
Qin Yusheng had bought the stew from the most famous shop nearby. It was sweet and refreshing, and the rice was from a farm, soft and fragrant.
Having gone straight to the hotel after waking up, it was now almost three in the afternoon, and she hadn't had a single hot meal.
"This soup is so good, how did you know?"
Zhao Shuyao had been hospitalized at Ren Ai Hospital years ago.
It was also at Ren Ai Hospital that she had donated a kidney to Qin Yusheng.
She loved this soup, so Mr. Qin would have it delivered to her every day.
"Xue'er also loves it."
Qin Yusheng's light, casual five words.
Zhao Shuyao's spoon, which she was holding, froze.
She slowly put down the spoon. The soup, which had tasted so good moments ago, suddenly made her feel full.
"Don't want to drink it anymore?" Qin Yusheng frowned.
"I don't like it, it's terrible soup, it tastes awful." Zhao Shuyao wrinkled her nose.
"Of course, you don't like it. This soup shop is from back then..."
Qin Yusheng's words were interrupted halfway by a doctor entering.
"Which one is Ms. Wu Guifen's family member?"
"I am." Zhao Shuyao stood up.
The doctor glanced at her. "Come with me."
Zhao Shuyao had a bad feeling in her heart, but she still followed.
"Ms. Wu Guifen's physical condition is not good. After our examination, there is a high probability of stomach cancer. Please prepare yourself."
Outside the door, the doctor flipped through the lab reports and spoke thus.
A deafening roar sounded in Zhao Shuyao's ears, and she almost thought she had misheard.
