Things had clearly turned for the better when she went to see him that night.
How did things turn for the worse?
Shang Guantong's mind was in a mess, and her head was buzzing.
Shang Guantong's pained face was reflected in the car window. Huo Yao's eyelashes fluttered before she finally turned her head and smiled bitterly. "Uncle doesn't have a strong will to live. It's possible that things will turn for the worse."
The moment she finished her sentence, Shang Guantong suddenly felt as though she was in an icehouse and could not help shivering.
It was not winter anymore, so why was it still so cold?
Shang Guantong hugged herself tightly and tried to calm herself down.
Huo Yao did not say a word.
An hour later, the car finally arrived at the hospital.
Huo Yao looked outside before she placed her hand on the door handle. She turned to look at Aunt Tong and said softly, "Why don't you go in too? Maybe... you can see him one last time."
Shang Guantong's eyes welled up with tears. She looked up and said, "Okay."
Huo Yao could not help giving herself a thumbs up when she heard Huo Yao agree.
Her acting skills were worthy of the huge gift her uncle had given her for their first meeting.
However, she did not know if her eldest uncle would be shocked to receive this gift from her.
Speaking of which, she was really a sensible niece.
Shang Guantong got out of the car in a daze and did not notice Huo Yao's expression.
The three of them entered the hospital and took the elevator up.
When the elevator doors opened, Xiao Xie, who was standing guard nearby, looked up and hurried over when he saw Huo Yao. "Miss Huo."
Xiao Xie greeted her respectfully. He looked slightly surprised when he saw Shang Guantong behind her.
Huo Yao nodded and said, "I'm going to see Uncle."
Xiao Xie nodded. He did not ask about Shang Guantong's identity.
He knew that the person brought by Eldest Miss was definitely trustworthy.
Before long, they walked through the corridor and arrived at the ward where Huo Jing was staying.
Huo Changfeng was still talking on his phone at the door. When he heard footsteps, he turned around with a smile on his face. When he saw Shang Guantong standing next to Huo Yao, his fingers trembled, and his phone nearly slipped from his hand.
Huo Changfeng snapped back to his senses. He did not care that the person on the other end of the line was still talking and immediately hung up. He took a step forward as though he could not believe his eyes. "Miss Tong?"
Shangguan Tong looked up, his voice a little hoarse. "Changfeng, long time no see."
Huo Changfeng stood where he was, feeling that the shock he had received today was the most in his life.
First, it was Eldest Young Mistress's outstanding performance in the successor assessment. Then, it was Miss Tong's appearance … Huo Changfeng pressed his hand against his chest. All sorts of emotions welled up in his heart. "… So you're really still alive."
All these years, his Master Feng had never given up looking for Miss Tong. Even when he received news of her death, he never gave up.
It was also because of this obsession that he remained single his entire life and persisted to this day.
"Yes, I'm still alive." Shangguan Tong had a bitter taste in his mouth. He did not explain further and only looked at the ward behind Huo Changfeng. "How is Jing Feng now?"
"Master Feng …" Huo Changfeng opened his mouth. However, when he met Huo Yao's gaze, he suddenly realized something. "… the situation is terrible."
Shangguan Tong's body swayed.
Huo Changfeng sighed and said, "You'll know when you go in."
Shangguan Tong suppressed the sweet taste in her throat and acknowledged in a hoarse voice.
Before long, she pushed the door open and walked in.
