Seeing his sister's condition, Chen approached her. "Ning—" Gently caressing her head, he added, "Don't cry."
Pulling away, Yichan wiped her tears away. "Everything's gonna be okay."
"Yichan is right, mom is very strong," Chen assured her.
Pressing her forehead against Chen's shoulder, Ning closed her eyes. "I don't wanna lose her again Chen, I don't."
"Co here." Giving her a hug, he sighed, "I don't want that either." Without saying anything else, he closed his eyes trying very hard to control his emotions. He was feeling as vulnerable as her but he didn't want to break down. He knew he had to stay strong for his family.
"Dad, I don't wanna lose her," Weilong exclaid before looking at grandpa Yang. "What am I going to do without her? I—"
Cutting him off, grandpa Yang snapped, "Shut up, for once in your life will you stay strong and think of a positive outco?" Scrunching his brows, he added, "The doctors are treating her, what could go wrong? Nothing is going to happen but if you keep talking shit, I'll throw you out of the hospital."
After a few minutes, the doctor stepped out of the room.
Ning and Chen quickly approached him followed by Weilong and Yichan.
"The patient is out of danger now. Fortunately she was brought here at the right ti otherwise things would have been very difficult. We will shift her to the room soon."
After the doctor left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then Linhou arrived along with Jason. "Boss, can I talk to you for a second?"
Gesturing Chen to take care of Ning, Yichan stepped out along with them.
...
After soti.
As soon Ziyi was shifted to the room, everyone rushed inside to see her.
Ning imdiately broke down when she saw her. The emotions in her heart were too overwhelming for her to handle. Though Ziyi was out of danger, she still didn't feel peace at heart. The site of her getting shot right in front of her still flashed in her eyes making her heart ache for her mother.
Gently caressing her head, Grandpa Yang sighed, "She is okay now."
Burying her face on his chest, Ning sobbed, "I don't know what to do grandpa, I—" She was very determined not to make her parents a part of her life until she t Ziyi in the cafe and before the incident happened. But now, her determination was slowly vanishing making her feel vulnerable.
Patting her back. Grandpa Yang said, "Why don't you go ho and co back tomorrow?"
When Ning shook her head, Weilong remarked, "Dad is right, you should go ho and take so rest. I'll stay here with Ziyi and let you know when she wakes up."
Looking at Chen, grandpa Yang added, "You should also go ho and co back tomorrow." Before Chen could say anything, he stated, "Weilong and I will stay here today."
"Dad, you can go ho, I—"
Cutting him off, grandpa Yang frowned, "Don't tell your father what to do."
…..
Ning and Yichan's place.
Inside the bedroom.
Gently caressing her cheeks, Yichan said, "Take so rest, I'll order sothing for dinner, okay?"
Ning nodded head and inquired, "Is Yitian ho?"
"I guess he is, why?"
"I don't know if he had anything today. Can you ask him what he wants for dinner and order it for him?" When he nodded his head, she added, "I am really worried about him as well."
"Don't worry about him, I'll talk to him."
…..
Yitian's room.
Sitting on a chair near the open window, Yitian was staring at the sky. He couldn't stop thinking about Liying and the guy he had seen with her during the video call.
"Why aren't you eating properly these days?" Walking inside the room, Yichan frowned. The room was very ssy which was very strange. Yitian wasn't the kind of boy who would keep things unorganized.
When he saw Yichan, he quickly got up. "I—I don't feel that hungry these days."
Nodding his head, Yichan sighed, "Do you have sothing to do?" When he shook his head, he added, "Let's go for a walk then."
"Now?" When he nodded his head, Yitian answered, "Okay."
…..
Garden.
"I heard sothing happened today. Is everything okay now?"
Yichan nodded his head and answered, "Ning's mother got injured but everything is okay now." Pausing for a while, he added, "You should pay her a visit so day."
"Yes sure, I will," Yitian smiled.
Keeping quiet for quite so ti, Yichan explained, "When I was of your age, I had a really hard ti sorting out my thoughts. Even though brother Bojing was there for and even grandpa, aunt Wenna and uncle Dao, I didn't like disturbing them all the ti so I ended up keeping my thoughts to myself which made things even worse."
"Only after eting Ning I understood how important it is to express what is there in your heart at least to soone you can trust. Whether it's your friend, relative, cousin or your brother." Looking at Yitian, he added, "Keeping things all by yourself will only make you suffer more. Are you understanding what I am trying to say?"
When he nodded his head, Yichan added, "Sotis there are things we can't solve or sort out by ourselves but it becos easier to deal with it after taking help from soone. "
Placing his hand on Yitian's shoulder, he exclaid, "I am not saying you to share everything with . I just want you to rember that I will always be there to help you out or may be to guide you if you are stuck sowhere. I know sothing is bothering you since quite so ti now and if you share it with , I might be able to help."
Sitting on the ground, Yitian sighed in dejection. "Nothing is gonna help."
"And why is it so?" he inquired before sitting beside him.
"Because I ssed up things pretty bad this ti and there is no way out."
