“Well, this matter is quite complicated, but all you need to know is that your parents love you very much,” Xu Ce said.
Dian Dian nodded in a dazed manner.
At this moment, Xu Ce got up, held his hand, and walked towards the bathroom. “Didn’t you say you needed to pee? Would you like Uncle Xu to accompany you?”
“Yes.”
Meanwhile, in the guest room, Jiang Wan Yu was holding Lin Yi Chen’s hand against her cheek.
“Lin Yi Chen, I’m sorry. I had no idea how much you sacrificed for me,” Jiang Wan Yu’s eyes welled up with tears.
Just hearing from Xu Ce how Lin Zi Xuan and his girlfriend had died, it sent shivers down her spine. No wonder Lin Yi Chen didn’t dare to let anyone know he loved her.
At this moment, Lin Yi Chen lay pale and unresponsive.
For the first time, Jiang Wan Yu regretted how ruthlessly she had acted that day. Why did she stab him twice?
His wounds hadn’t healed, and he had been shot again.
After Dian Dian finished using the toilet, he turned to Xu Ce and said, “Uncle Xu, I want to see Lin… Uncle Lin, can I?”
However, Xu Ce shook his head and said, “I suggest you wait until tomorrow. Your dad is injured, and your mom is taking care of him. If your mom sees you awake, she’ll be distracted from taking care of you.”
“Dad is injured?” Dian Dian exclaimed with his little face showing concern.
“Yes, so your mom is taking care of him. If you go now, your mom will have to divide her attention to take care of you, and it will tire her out. So, how about we see your dad tomorrow?” Xu Ce reassured her.
Dian Dian obediently nodded. “Okay, Uncle Xu, you’re right. I’ll see Dad tomorrow.”
“Good, Dian Dian. You’re such a good boy. Would you like Uncle Xu to stay with you while you sleep?” Xu Ce smiled.
“Thank you, Uncle Xu, but it’s not necessary. I’m a little man, I can sleep by myself. You can go and help Mom take care of Dad,” Dian Dian immediately replied.
“Alright. If you need anything, I’ll be in the living room. Just call me,” Xu Ce said.
The next morning, when Lin Yi Chen woke up, he felt a delicate and cool hand holding his palm.
He blinked in surprise and turned his head.
Then, he couldn’t believe his eyes.
Xiaoyu?
How could she be by his side?
In the next moment, his gaze swept around the room.
He soon realized that he was in the guest room of Jiang Wan Yu’s apartment. He had been here countless times, so he was very familiar with the decor.
So, he was at Xiaoyu’s place?
In an instant, Lin Yi Chen remembered what had happened last night.
It turned out that the higher-ups had indeed launched an operation against the Mu Ye Group, with a focus on capturing “Jiang Ye.” He had deliberately exposed a flaw and been shot, then drove towards Xiaoyu’s apartment to escape.
But as soon as he arrived at her door and knocked a few times, he couldn’t hold on any longer and passed out.
Jiang Wan Yu was lightly dozing. But when she felt her fingers being gently squeezed, she immediately woke up.
Seeing Lin Yi Chen open his eyes, her eyes lit up, and she asked with concern, “You’re awake? How do you feel? Are you still running a fever?”
She reached out to touch Lin Yi Chen’s forehead.
After confirming that he wasn’t running a high fever, Jiang Wan Yu let out a long sigh of relief.
Thank goodness the fever had subsided.
She had been worried that his gunshot wound might become infected.
