CHAPTER 669: CHAPTER 665: SUDDEN EMERGENCY

When Shen Cheng came out of the bathroom, Shi Yu was standing by the window on the phone, with a solemn expression and gloom in his eyes.

Whatever the other party had said, his face suddenly darkened, "I’ll be right there."

After saying this, he hung up the phone and turned to leave immediately.

He even ignored Shen Cheng.

In the surrounding air, there seemed to be an added pressure that was suffocating.

And the source of this low pressure, Shen Cheng couldn’t find.

Her gaze followed Shi Yu, watching him walk to the door, reaching out to open it.

She thought he would just leave her behind, but unexpectedly, just before stepping out, he paused and turned back: "Change clothes and come to the hospital with me."

Hospital?

Upon hearing these two words, a sudden unease rose in Shen Cheng’s heart.

Without asking any more questions and without caring about anything else, she quickly took some clothes from the wardrobe to change into, and then hurried out after him.

In the car, Shi Yu remained silent throughout the ride, continuously accelerating, surpassing one car after another whizzing by in the lanes.

His expression was complex, and his demeanor still heavy.

"What happened?"

As the car entered a tunnel, Shen Cheng finally couldn’t hold back and asked him.

Her heart tightened because of his emotions.

Ever since she had known him, no matter what difficulties he encountered, he had never been as unsettled as he was now.

Those bottomless eyes of his even held a trace of helplessness.

What’s wrong with him?

As the car exited the tunnel, the hands gripping the steering wheel slowly clenched tighter, staring straight ahead at the traffic and crowds, his thin lips tensing slightly with difficulty: "My mom, bleeding in the stomach."

Shen Cheng was stunned.

The hands that were tightly clasped before now dug deep into her palm.

In this world, perhaps no one is immune to all poisons, because as long as one is human, they have flesh, blood, and emotions.

Whether man or woman, everyone has a fatal weakness.

And Shi Yu’s weakness is that he would never allow the people he loves most to be hurt!

Even it were just a trivial wound...

Shen Cheng slowly unclenched her hand, her palm now marked with several deep cuts.

But she paid it no mind.

She reached out, her hand covering Shi Yu’s, filled with heartache.

"It will be okay."

Fearing that she might carelessly touch his wounds, all she could say was this single sentence.

What she could do was also only to silently pray in her heart: It will be okay, it will be okay, it must be okay...

The car finally arrived at Bo’an Hospital.

The ten-minute drive felt as long as a century.

Without even parking the car properly, Shi Yu had already pushed the door open and gotten out.

Shen Cheng followed him out of the car, and upon catching up with him, grabbed his hand in time.

At her gesture, Shi Yu’s steps paused for a moment, he looked back at her, his eyes were deep, but much softened.

"It’s nothing."

He also said such a sentence, as if to comfort himself, yet also to prevent the woman in front of him from worrying so much.

Shen Cheng nodded, following behind him, walking toward the elevator entrance.

The elevator stopped on the 9th floor, and with a ding, it opened—

The two stepped out of the elevator, and from a distance, they could see Shi Mei sitting outside the emergency room on a long bench, bent over, head down, supporting his forehead with his hands, in a prolonged silence.

That appearance, lonely and helpless, was heart-wrenching.

It must have been the footsteps he heard, for he suddenly lifted his head, his eyes bloodshot.
