"Asheng, my stomach hurts a lot." Veya clutched his hand, her face pale, cold sweat trickling down her forehead.
"Probably sothing unhygienic we ate at lunch."
Hearing this, Jiang Yisheng’s face changed slightly, and soone behind him spoke up first, "Let’s take Auntie to the hospital imdiately."
Jiang Yisheng turned around and saw that Ji Mingqian had already changed his shoes and put on a mask and hat.
He stepped forward to help support Veya.
"You go change clothes first; I’ll help Auntie downstairs. et you at the main entrance."
Jiang Yisheng responded with a sound, hurried into the room.
"Auntie, let’s go." Ji Mingqian supported her and said gently.
Veya nodded with her pale face, her steps unconsciously slowed.
The moonlight spilled over the quiet street, casting a sense of solitude.
At the entrance to the VIP ward, two figures stood close together.
Ji Mingqian reached out to rub his head and said softly, "Don’t worry; everything will be fine."
Jiang Yisheng kept his eyes locked on the door, absently responding.
At this mont, the door opened, and a doctor and nurse walked out, one after the other.
"Doctor, how’s my mom?" Jiang Yisheng quickly approached and asked anxiously.
"It’s nothing major; it should just be so gastrointestinal discomfort caused by sothing she ate. After the IV, she can be discharged tomorrow," the doctor replied.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yisheng’s shoulders slumped, and the heavy burden in his heart finally lifted.
"Thank you, doctor."
"You’re welco; it’s our duty."
The doctor and nurse left, and Ji Mingqian patted him on the shoulder, "Let’s go in and see your mom."
Jiang Yisheng nodded, walking quietly into the ward.
"Asheng."
Seeing the two of them enter, Veya waved at Jiang Yisheng.
Jiang Yisheng quickened his steps to the bedside, "Mom, are you feeling better?"
"I’m fine, feeling much better after taking the dicine." Veya curved her lips, trying to smile.
After taking the pills, her complexion looked significantly better, not as pale as before.
She reminded, "Don’t tell your dad about this, don’t make him worry."
Jiang Yisheng gave a helpless smile, "Too late."
"Hmm?"
"Dad just called you, and I answered it for you."
He’s probably on the flight to J City right now.
Veya was stunned for a mont, then showed a similarly helpless smile, "You should quickly call him and tell him not to co. It’s already late at night."
She knew her husband’s temper well; upon hearing she was in the hospital, he’d definitely rush over.
"I just called, but his phone is off. He’s probably on the plane," Jiang Yisheng said.
Veya was at a loss for words.
"Auntie, you should rest well. If Uncle arrives, we can go pick him up together," Ji Mingqian reassured.
Veya showed an apologetic expression, "Mingqian, I’m really sorry. Dragging you out here with us late at night."
"Auntie, don’t be a stranger. You’ve treated like family, so no need for formalities," Ji Mingqian said with a bright, infectious smile.
"Mom, you rest first. We’ll be right outside; call us if you need anything," Jiang Yisheng said softly.
Drowsiness overcoming her, Veya nodded and slowly closed her eyes.
Ji Mingqian and Jiang Yisheng exchanged a glance and turned to leave.
After closing the door, Jiang Yisheng stretched and sat on the bench in the hallway.
"Thanks for tonight," he said.
"Sigh—"
Ji Mingqian suddenly sighed, leaning back.
Jiang Yisheng turned to look at him, "Why are you sighing?"
"Your dad will be here soon," Ji Mingqian said with a face of reluctant resignation.
Hearing this, Jiang Yisheng burst out laughing, "You’ve t my dad before. You look like you’re going to war."
"It’s not the sa," Ji Mingqian said casually, "Going to war is a lot easier than facing your dad."
Hearing the gloominess in his tone, Jiang Yisheng smiled with narrowed eyes, "Do you want to leave first?"
"No way," Ji Mingqian sat up straight, refusing without hesitation.
...
Country Y.
It’s rare for him to appear in the headquarters eting room, and everyone’s focus was on the fact that Master Jiu suddenly had a child.
"Cough, cough."
Chu Chen coughed, and everyone quickly snapped back to their topic of discussion.
"Ajiu, wake up." Gu Xinuo looked at the person dozing off beside her, speaking in a lowered voice.
As always, the habit of dozing off in etings hadn’t changed.
Ye Jiuliang squinted his long eyes halfway open, reached for the cup on the table, and took a sip of water, "What were we talking about?"
Gu Xinuo, "..."
"The trial plan is decided. Also, expedite the project in the eastern part of R Country. eting adjourned," Chu Chen said in a steady voice.
Everyone stood up, leaving the eting room one by one.
After everyone had left, Chu Chen looked at Ye Jiuliang and said in frustration, "Ye Jiuliang, can’t you take etings seriously? You doze off halfway every ti."
At tis like this, he could truly empathize with his ntor’s frustration.
Ye Jiuliang grinned sheepishly, "I’ll try next ti."
"Ajiu, there’s a fun task today, want to join in?" Gu Xinuo raised her eyebrows playfully.
Ye Jiuliang beca interested, "Tell more."
"Soone switched a batch of our goods amidst the chaos," she explained.
"They swapped a batch of our goods?" Ye Jiuliang squinted his cold eyes, a deadly smile playing on his lips.
Who had the audacity to ss with the K organization’s goods?
Gu Xinuo teased, "There’s soone involved whom you know."
"Who?"
"Li, Jing, Jie," she enunciated each word.
