Gu Xijue closed his eyes and finally lay down to rest.
He was indeed tired. He went to the company early in the morning and was busy all morning. He rushed to the airport without eating lunch and then went to the household registration center. When he learned Xiaochen's identity, he felt overwhelmed and his emotions were extremely complicated.
, sour, sweet, bitter, and astringent... But before he could do more digestion, Qin Hao called him back to the company with an emergency call. On the way, he met Rou'er and saw her standing alone on the street with her belly bulging.
He said he couldn't find Gu Xichao, and he was angry and stressed... After arriving at the company, he hurriedly held two meetings and secured a case worth hundreds of millions. Before the third meeting started, Rou'er suddenly said that he was upset.
It hurt, so he had to take her to the hospital. Once there, he stayed there until the evening and became even more tired. He ran all the way, as if the last bit of strength in his body was exhausted. Finally, he brought Haitang and Xiaochen home. He finally couldn't bear it anymore.
…
As a result of excessive running and overwork, warning signs finally appeared in a body that had always been healthy.
He actually discovered something was wrong with him at noon, but because the situation was not serious and he did not have the time and energy to take care of it, his condition suddenly worsened.
His throat felt tight, his body felt cold and hot, especially his headache. His temples felt as if they were being pricked by needles, and his head felt like it was filled with concrete. It was so heavy that it was difficult for him to even move.
Qin Hao and Guan Xiaofei, who had just entered the door, couldn't help but shake their heads. Hard-core people couldn't bear such trouble!
"Haitang, I've already called the family doctor, don't worry!"
"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you, Qin Hao."
"What are you talking about? It's a joke, isn't it?"
Xi Haitang smiled shyly and turned around to pour water. She first gave Qin Hao and Guan Xiaofei a glass of pure water, and then poured Gu Xijue a glass of warm water. She walked gently to the bed and patted him gently with her palms.
cheek, raised his head with a little difficulty, "Here, drink some water first."
Gu Xijue was groggy and very cooperative. He smelled the natural fragrance emanating from her skin. It seemed that his physical discomfort had improved slightly. He opened his lips slightly and let her slowly feed the water into his dry throat.
"Slow down...don't choke..." Her movements were gentle and her voice was even more delicate.
Gu Xijue could still feel her concern in his chaotic consciousness, and a warm wave of affection ran through his heart. In his life, no one had ever been so close to him and so caring.
She was very patient and made him drink two large glasses of water before stopping. She took the paper towel aside and wiped away the slight moisture on his chin, then adjusted the position of the pillow and let him lie down again.
"When you're tired, close your eyes and sleep for a while. I'll call you when the doctor arrives." He tapped his eyelids lightly with his fingertips, asking him to close his eyes and rest.
However, the man who had been so cooperative when drinking water became stubborn this time and refused to close his eyes no matter what, looking at her without blinking an eye.
"Uh... do you still want to drink water?" Xi Haitang felt a little uncomfortable when he saw him, making random guesses, and even stood up in a panic to pour him another glass of water.
However, his hand, which had become scalding hot due to heat, suddenly stretched out from the quilt and clasped her wrist on one side.
Xi Haitang paused and looked at him in confusion.
"I'm sorry..." The hoarse syllables spit out from her thin lips, revealing the pain that she couldn't understand.
"How can I say sorry properly?"
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Haitang, I'm sorry..." He murmured, as if under a spell. When people are vulnerable, they are more likely to think of the most worrying things, and the things that worry them the most are also the heaviest in their hearts.
the ties of
"Ah?!" Xi Haitang was surprised and didn't understand what he meant, but his heart seemed to hurt all of a sudden. It hurt, it hurt.
She was stunned, and was pulled into his arms by the sudden force he exerted. When the gentle body came close to her heart, Gu Xijue sighed deeply again, fear rising in her heart, fearing that she would hate her if she knew everything would collapse.
He will leave him without looking back...
The arms unconsciously tightened again...
But after a while, the heavy feeling hit him again, and he couldn't bear the pain and fell into a deep sleep...

When Gu Xijue woke up again, he found that it was already very late. The crystal lamp had been adjusted to medium light, which was not dark or dark, just right.
His eyes slowly moved down, and he first saw the shelf hanging the intravenous drip bottle. Looking further down, he saw that he had an intravenous drip in his hand.
On the side, two children who were sitting obediently saw that he had woken up, and they showed happy expressions at the same time, "Daddy (uncle), you're awake!"
"Well..." As soon as he opened his mouth, he was surprised to realize that his voice was so hoarse, "Yunhen, Xiaochen, why don't you go to bed? What are you doing here?"
"We need to help daddy get an IV drip! You were asleep just now. If you moved your arm unconsciously, you would have rolled a needle!"
"Hmm, Yunhen is right. Besides, we have to change uncle's medicine! The doctor has prescribed three bottles of medicine for you, one big one and two small ones. The big bottle that uncle ordered now will be finished soon. If
If you don’t change the small bottle in time, air will escape and it will be serious!”
Yunhen and Xiaochen spoke sternly, with very cautious expressions, which made Gu Xijue feel warm in his heart.
"Ah, it's time to change the bottle!" Xiaochen quickly took the medicine bottle and pretended to change it. However, she was too small and couldn't reach the tall IV stand.
Yunhen moved the stool and climbed up, "Xiaochen, give me the bottle."
"Well, you have to be careful!"
"Okay, no problem, I'm a boy, I'm not afraid of heights!"
Yunhen was very brave and neatly removed the original intravenous drip bottle, and then replaced it with a new one. When he got off the stool, Xiaochen quickly reached out to help, and the two children looked at each other and smiled.
Gu Xijue suddenly felt warm. With such children, what more could a husband ask for?
His eyes shifted, and he looked around, subconsciously looking for a gentle figure, but there was no figure of her anywhere he could see, and loss gradually appeared in his eyes...
