Huo Yanqing heard footsteps coming up the stairs and looked at Shu Youkang. "Dad, about Xin'er's mother …"
"I won't tell Xin'er." Shu Youkang understood Huo Yanqing's concerns. "I just want Xin'er to be happy."
There was a knock on the door. Shu Xin knocked twice and pushed the door open. "What are you talking about? Why aren't you coming down?"
Huo Yanqing got up and held Shu Xin's hand out of habit. "Nothing. Is it time for dinner?"
"Yes." Shu Xin's gaze fell on Shu Youkang's face. "Dad, why do you look so pale?" Shu Xin then saw the medicine on the coffee table. She broke free from Huo Yanqing's hand and walked anxiously to Shu Youkang's side. "Did you have a heart attack again?"
Shu Youkang gave Shu Xin a reassuring look. "I was feeling a little unwell. Yanqing got me the medicine in time. I'm fine now."
"Are you really fine?" Shu Xin was still a little worried because Shu Youkang's face was so pale that it was worrying. "Let's go to the hospital to have a look."
"I'm really fine." Shu Youkang stood up from the chair. He wanted to prove to Shu Xin that he was fine, but he felt dizzy. He couldn't stand properly and swayed. Shu Xin hurriedly supported him. "You're already like this. How can you be fine? No, we have to go to the hospital. "
Shu Youkang smiled and massaged his temples. "I might have gotten up too quickly. I'm really fine. It's not easy for you to come home. Dad is happy and doesn't want to go to the hospital. Help me to the room and I'll be fine."
"Dad …" Shu Xin's heart ached and her eyes turned red. "It's my fault. I'll come back to see you more often in the future."
Shu Youkang looked at his daughter who he had doted on since she was young. He thought of the awkward situation between her and her biological mother. His heart ached for her. He touched Shu Xin's head lovingly and his eyes began to turn cloudy. He said, "Okay."
Shu Xin helped Shu Youkang to the room to rest. Then, she went downstairs to bring the food upstairs. Shu Youkang wanted to eat by himself, but Shu didn't let him. She always felt that she wasn't good enough to Shu Youkang. Compared to his love for her, what she did was insignificant. She wanted to seize every opportunity to be filial to him.
Shu Youkang seemed to understand his daughter's thoughts. He leaned against the bed and smiled. He let her feed him one bite at a time. Although Ruolan was gone, she left him such a good daughter. He was content.
Shu Xin didn't go back to the villa that night. After dinner, she sat by the bed and chatted with Shu Youkang. She didn't go back to the room until he fell asleep.
When she returned to the room, Huo Yanqing was standing by the window and talking on the phone. Shu Xin walked over and hugged Huo Yanqing from behind. She leaned her head on his broad back and listened quietly to his heartbeat and voice.
Huo Yanqing hung up the phone quickly. He wanted to turn around, but Shu Xin hugged him tightly. "Don't move. Let me hug you for a while."
Huo Yanqing put his hands on the back of Shu Xin's hands. "Dad is asleep?"
"Yeah," Shu Xin rubbed her face against Huo Yanqing's back gently. "I think Dad has something on his mind."
Huo Yanqing raised his eyebrows slightly. Perhaps women were born with the ability to be as sensitive as dust, or perhaps women's intuition was always accurate. Huo Yanqing was silent for a few seconds. Then he said in a relaxed tone, "Do pregnant women tend to be sentimental and let their thoughts run wild?"
There was a hint of a smile in his voice. His words had always had the effect of calming people down. Shu Xin's gloomy mood was immediately dissolved by his words. Her lips curved into a faint smile. "Maybe I'm thinking too much."
