Three days later, Lin Yi and Li Weixi returned to the familiar city. The girl's heart, which had just relaxed, became heavy again.
She tugged at Lin Yi's sleeve. "Lin Yi, I want to see my father first."
At that time, she had planned to leave as soon as Li Shangde's surgery was over. She hadn't seen him since and had been worried about him.
Lin Yi said, "Okay," and asked the driver to drive to the hospital first. He could feel the sadness in the girl's heart. If doing this could make her feel better, of course, he would do it without hesitation.
When they arrived at the hospital, the two of them went to Li Shangde's ward. A nurse was feeding him saline.
Lin Yi took the opportunity to ask, "How is he?"
The nurse was stunned. She turned around and hesitated when she saw them. "Overall, he's fine, but …"
"But what?" Li Weixi hurried two steps forward and grabbed the nurse's shoulder.
The nurse carefully glanced at Lin Yi, who was behind Li Weixi. After seeing him nod, she dared to say, "Your father's electrocardiogram stopped for more than a minute last night."
"Electrocardiogram …" Li Weixi felt her vision go dark. She staggered and almost fainted.
Lin Yi hurried forward to support her and gave the nurse a suggestive look. "Don't worry. Isn't your father fine now? Maybe he just had surgery and his condition is not stable. "
The nurse hurriedly comforted her. "Miss Li, don't worry. There's no big problem. The doctor has done a comprehensive examination this morning. There's no big problem. "
The girl was still frowning. She held Lin Yi's arm tightly. "Will he really be fine? I keep feeling scared. "
"Don't be afraid." Lin Yi patted her back gently. "Everything will be fine. Let's go back first and come back in two days. Your father will be fine by then."
"No, I want to accompany him for a while longer."
Li Weixi pushed away Lin Yi's arm, walked over to Li Shangde and sat down beside him. Then, he carefully touched his palm.
His palm was still warm, which seemed to be no different from before. This made Li Weixi feel much more at ease. He held his father's hand tightly, as if he was holding onto something to rely on.
The nurse glanced at Lin Yi, packed her things, and left the ward.
Lin Yi walked over to Li Weixi and put his hand on her shoulder. "I'll cure him."
"Yes," Li Weixi answered in a muffled voice, looking at his father with deep dependence and pain in his eyes.
Recalling what she had found out in Tong City, she suddenly said, "Lin Yi, do you think my father's illness was caused by that woman, Xu Shaohua? My father used to be very healthy, but this illness came very suddenly. "
Lin Yi frowned and did not answer immediately. It was a disease, not a poison, and it was not contagious. Could it be that it was intentional?
He didn't quite believe it in his heart, but when he met the girl's eager gaze, he still changed his words. "I know. I'll help you investigate this matter carefully. Don't worry too much. Your father is slowly getting better now."
Li Weixi nodded and felt a little relieved. No matter what happened before, at least now her father's condition was getting better day by day.
Even though she knew that Li Shangde could not hear her in his current state, she still told him a lot about herself before leaving with a peace of mind.
On the way back, Li Weixi passed by a dessert shop and stopped the car. "Lin Yi, buy a cake. I suddenly feel like eating it."
"Yes." Lin Yi nodded and got out of the car with her into the dessert shop.
He was worried that the girl would find it difficult to eat dinner because of Li Shangde. Now that he saw that she took the initiative to mention what she wanted to eat, he naturally agreed.
The dessert shop was full of fragrance. The sweet taste made Li Weixi feel much better, and even her footsteps were much lighter.
The two of them were carefully choosing the cakes in front of the counter. Lin Yi would take the initiative to comment from time to time. It seemed that he was very attentive, which made Li Weixi feel that she was valued, and her heart was much warmer.
In the end, they chose an exquisite cake that was very girlish and a lovely animal cake and asked the waiter to wrap it up.
When they went to the counter to check out, they met an acquaintance.
Roman, who was paying the bill, was also surprised to see them, but soon she joked, "President, you took such a long leave and did not come to work. It turns out that you are accompanying Sissi."
"No, we do have something to do." Li Weixi hurriedly explained, feeling a little embarrassed to be teased by an acquaintance.
Lin Yi, however, took Li Weixi in his arms and seemed to be pleased by Roman's words. "Something like that."
Roman smiled and looked at Li Weixi ambiguously.
Li Weixi was eager to change the topic, so she said, "Sister Roman, it's not time to get off work. Why are you here?"
Roman stroked her hair and said lazily, "It's boring to stay here, so I asked for leave in advance."
She was too direct, which made Li Weixi embarrassed to answer. She couldn't help but take a careful look at the man, fearing that he would be angry because of the employee's laziness. But Lin Yi acted as if he hadn't heard anything and was paying the bill.
Roman took the opportunity to come over and say, "Thanks to you, it seems that I will be fine."
Li Weixi looked at her helplessly, but because Roman was so close, Li Weixi could clearly see that she had used foundation to cover the dark circles under her eyes.
Li Weixi didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that Roman looked a little haggard.
Did something happen to her during this period of time? Or had she been thinking about what had happened before?
Li Weixi didn't dare to ask because Lin Yi was present. She just looked at Roman and tried to give her a hint.
Roman responded with a smile, showing an indifferent attitude.
Lin Yi paid the bill, turned around and said to Li Weixi, "Let's go home."
Roman said at the right time, "I have something to do and have to go back. Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
The three of them walked out of the door and went in different directions.
Lin Yi asked Li Weixi after getting into the car, "What were you guys doing just now?"
"What are you talking about?" Li Weixi mumbled. "I saw something wrong with Sister Roman, so I took a few more glances at her. She might have noticed it."
Lin Yi faintly said "Oh" and didn't ask further. He was never interested in other people's private affairs, but if Li Weixi was willing to talk, he would listen carefully. However, it seemed that the girl didn't want to talk to him.
Just as she thought, seeing that Lin Yi didn't ask, she didn't say much. She silently took out her phone and sent a text message to Roman.
