body 104. Scared
Grandpa is sick? How could it be...
Jian Xiaoqi felt that her whole body was out of control, her body was shaking slightly, and her hand was holding the phone tighter. It took a long time before she found her voice and said in a more choked voice: "Brother, is grandpa's illness serious? I
…”
Jian Chenghua knew his little sister's feelings for her grandfather. He sighed with a heavy voice. After thinking for a while, he finally persuaded in a calm tone: "Tell Si Yan and ask him to help you make arrangements and come back as soon as possible."
…”
Judging from the tone, it doesn’t look good!
With a bang, she felt as if a corner was missing from her heart. She even dropped her cell phone to the ground without feeling it.
"Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi?"
On the phone, Jian Chenghua asked worriedly, but the phone fell to the ground and she couldn't hear it at all.
After being numb for a while, Jian Xiaoqi gradually came back to her senses. She didn't bother to pick up the phone that fell on the ground, and ran down in a panic, shouting: "Si Yan, Si Yan..."
"
With a panicked gulp that resounded throughout the corridor, Jian Xiaoqi ran down like a frightened deer, stumbling along the way. At this time, Si Yan, who was having a video conference in the study, was startled when he heard the sound.
Before anyone could react, his figure had disappeared from the video...
"Si Yan, Si Yan..."
As soon as he left the study, he saw the little girl running over with a pale face, making a sound like a cat gulping, but her lips were pale and trembling, as if she had been greatly frightened.
Si Yan's heart tightened, he stepped in front of her in a few steps, supported her small body that was about to fall, and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong? What happened?"
He didn't know what happened yet, but just looking at her face, he thought she was frightened by something, so he stretched out his hand and patted her gently on the back.
Holding the shivering little girl in his arms, the mellow and steady voice was still gently comforting: "Don't be afraid, speak slowly, I'm here."
However, Jian Xiaoqi couldn't bear it. After being coaxed by him, tears streamed down her eyes. She heard a soft sigh coming from above her head, like a mother's gentle embrace, but also with a firmness like a mountain.
Let her settle down a little.
"Si Yan, my grandpa is sick and I want to go back..."
She raised her tearful face and looked at him firmly with her eyes. Only then did she regain some of her thoughts.
Si Yan understood her intention instantly and agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I will make arrangements later."
He didn't even ask, as long as she asked, he would agree. So, after helping her to sit down in his room, he went directly to the study to get his mobile phone and called to book the flight himself.
As for the video conference that is open, it is temporarily canceled.
"No matter what method you use, you must prepare two tickets for me within an hour..."
After hanging up the phone, Si Yan frowned in thought. The little girl's shocked look just now really frightened him! However, she did not explain Mr. Fu's situation clearly. He was worried that she would be confused due to anxiety, so after thinking about it, he decided
Called Jian Chenghua's number...
The situation is not very good.
He walked back in silence, and Jian Xiaoqi was sitting on the sofa with a straight body. After crying, she had gradually regained her composure, at least she seemed calm on the surface.
At this moment, she was flipping through her mobile phone and was obviously looking at air tickets online. Of course, she didn't have the means like Si Yan, so the air tickets were naturally gone.
So, when I looked up and saw her coming in, she ran over with shining eyes, "How is it? What should I do now that I don't have a plane ticket?"
She asked eagerly, with a nasal voice after crying, coupled with a pair of clear and panicked eyes, which was really pitiful.
"It's okay. I've already arranged a special flight. It will depart from City Y Airport in three hours. You go wash your face first and get ready. We will leave in a while."
Seeing that she was still distracted, Si Yan thought of what Jian Chenghua said just now, and the situation was indeed not optimistic. However, knowing that she had a close relationship with Mr. Fu, he had no intention of telling her yet.
"What's wrong? Do you want to say something?"
Jian Xiaoqi is very sensitive now, especially seeing him so silent. She is worried that he knows something but doesn't tell her. That can only be...
She panicked and grabbed the corner of his clothes: "Tell me, is my grandpa's condition serious?" When she was anxious, her voice sounded crying again.
Even though Si Yan was used to seeing wind and rain, he was a little helpless in the face of her kitten-like crying. He opened his arms and froze for a long time before taking her into his arms.
"Stop thinking nonsense. Your grandpa's problem is not big. Maybe he will be fine when you go back. Be good, don't be afraid..."
He patted her back gently again and patiently comforted her. Feeling the gentle trembling of the little person in his arms, the look in his eyes became more and more pitiful.
The plane will take off in three hours, and the journey from W town to Y city is almost more than two hours. Time is tight and we must leave as soon as possible.
He was going to get something. Seeing her staring at him longingly, he couldn't help but stretched out a big hand and patted her head. "You also go and pack your things. We will leave in a moment."
Under his urging, Jian Xiaoqi had to turn around, but when he brought out the things, she just wiped her face with a wet towel and stood there waiting for him.
"Can we go?" Seeing him coming, Jian Xiaoqi's eyes lit up, her red and swollen eyes stared at him motionless, and she clenched her fists nervously.
Si Yan looked at her empty hands and finally smiled helplessly, then went to her room in person and helped her get her ID. When he came out, Jian Xiaoqi blushed when she saw what he was holding.
Before she could speak, Si Yan spoke: "Let's go -"
Jian Xiaoqi had no choice but to nod along, saying "Oh", and then followed blankly behind, looking lost and naive, which really made her feel very pity.
The car drove very fast all the way. Despite Si Yan's comfort just now, Jian Xiaoqi still doesn't trust you. Grandpa has always been in good health. Why did he suddenly fall ill this time? Moreover, the eldest brother rarely uses such a serious tone this time.
Yes or no……
Jian Xiaoqi's tense body almost left her seat because of this tension. Si Yan looked in the rearview mirror and saw her pale face and the cold sweat on her forehead, and felt heartbroken.
"I just contacted your elder brother. Mr. Fu is in the hospital, but it shouldn't be a big problem. If you're worried, you can see it with your own eyes when you go back tomorrow."
His voice had a unique calmness that seemed to soothe people's hearts. Jian Xiaoqi listened for a while, and she also knew that it was useless to be anxious now, so she slowly calmed down.
The car was very fast. It took more than two hours to get to Y City Airport, but Si Yan arrived in less than two hours. Because it was a special plane, they could board the plane and set off as soon as they arrived.
Until she got on the plane and fastened her seat belt, Jian Xiaoqi still felt like she couldn't come back to her senses. Less than three hours had passed since she learned the news about her grandfather's illness, but she felt like it was too late.
It's been half a century.
Si Yan had been accompanying her and was sitting next to her now. He didn't rest at all today. As a result, he had a busy day and had to accompany her back to Rongan City in the evening.
Looking at his tired and handsome face, she lowered her head, feeling a little guilty, not knowing how to speak.
However, when she was thinking wildly, a big hand gently landed on her head. Jian Xiaoqi was startled when she heard his mellow and hoarse voice: "It will take more than four hours to get home. You should close your eyes and take a nap first. When we arrive,
I call you."
It was obvious that he was the one who should rest, but he seemed to only be able to see himself. Jian Xiaoqi's eyes that had cried were sour again.
"I'm sorry, it's all because of me that you are so busy, I..."
Before she finished speaking, she was lightly tapped on the forehead. Her eyes turned red, and when she raised her head, she saw him looking at her with a stern face.
"Don't think blindly, close your eyes and sleep!"
She was already used to hearing such domineering words. Normally, she was not afraid of anything, but now she was afraid. Tears rolled around in her eyes, and finally she couldn't hold it back anymore, and with a "pop" sound, she fell down.
On the back of his hand.
There was a soft sigh above the head, and then his low and hoarse voice: "Why are you crying again?"
"Do you think grandpa got sick because he was angry with me?" Jian Xiaoqi raised her head and looked at him with wet eyes.
Si Yan remained silent. He had already gotten the answer from the phone call and knew that Mr. Fu was indeed sick because he was worried about his only granddaughter, but he couldn't tell her this, right?
"Don't think too much. Mr. Fu is old. It's normal to get sick. If you have to worry, can't you just go back and spend time with him?"
However, Jian Xiaoqi shook her head vigorously: "I was too willful. I came here alone and didn't even say a word to him when I left. He loves me the most, but I made him angry. Moreover, he is now
Lying in the hospital bed, I couldn't even stay with him, ugh, it's all my fault..."
After all, she is a pampered little princess, after all she is a little girl who has just left school. Especially when encountering something like this that concerns her relatives, she cannot help but be at a loss.
"No nonsense!"
Hearing her cry, Si Yan shouted suddenly, scaring her so much that she sobbed. When there was no sound, he softened his voice and reassured her: "Listen, this has nothing to do with you, and your grandpa will be fine too.
Don't be afraid, I have everything under my control..."
He measured her body, gently pressed her head onto his shoulder, put his other hand around her shoulder, put his chin on the top of her hair, and whispered softly.
She was probably tired from crying too much. After crying all the fear in her heart, Jian Xiaoqi listened to his calm soothing voice and gradually fell asleep due to self-blame and guilt.
It was finally quiet, and Si Yan turned his head and stared at her sleeping face quietly through those dark eyes that had remained unchanged for thousands of years.
When he saw an undried tear hanging on her cheek, he calmly called the flight attendant, quietly asked for a tissue, and began to wipe it carefully. He looked attentive, moved gently, and gently stroked her cheek with his big hand.
, always cautious...
After wiping, Jian Xiaoqi hasn't woken up yet. It seems that she is really tired!
Gently curling the corners of his lips, Si Yan's eyes fell on her face again, his eyelashes were drooping like light feathers, his deep eyes were endless, his thin lips were slightly fanned, and he murmured: "Sleep, sleep, wait.
As soon as I wake up, everything will be fine..."
