Fu Yunyi felt wronged.
Fu Yunyi felt extremely wronged!
He was called back late last night. He even had to cancel several engagements because of this. Xu Chen has been so busy with this matter that he only had time to send Xia Zhiyi a text message to check on her before he lost contact with her.
He never really liked these things at the company, otherwise he wouldn't have gone straight into the entertainment industry after graduation. If he really wanted to, he could have just gone to work for his own company.
If it weren't for the special circumstances, and given that his grandfather is quite old, he couldn't bear to watch him work so hard for the company at his age, so even though he didn't like it, he gritted his teeth and took on the role.
Ultimately, he's lived at home for so many years, and he's not unintelligent; he's learned a lot through observation and experience. He certainly can't be as capable as his uncle, but he can certainly keep up appearances for the time being.
But if you don't like something, even after several years, you'll still dislike it.
Moreover, he was also worried about his uncle's situation.
After being called back, he's been busy with company matters and hasn't even had a chance to visit his uncle. Now that his uncle is about to wake up, and his grandfather and Xia Zhiyi have gone to the hospital, why is he just being left at the company?
Wronged!
On the other end of the phone, Old Master Fu heard his beloved grandson shouting that he wanted to go to the hospital with him. After a moment of silence, he said, "You didn't make an appointment."
Fu Yunyi on the other end of the phone fell silent immediately.
Old Master Fu sighed helplessly, "This hospital is a bit special. Zhiyi didn't expect me to call you back, so we didn't register your information. Getting in here suddenly will take a lot of time with the procedures. Besides, we have a meeting at the company, so you can stay here. Be good."
Fu Yunyi was speechless. "But you didn't tell me we needed to register beforehand."
If you had told me earlier, even if he was busy, he would have done this first.
That's his uncle, his own uncle, one of his only two blood relatives, and he can't even go to the hospital to see him!
Fu Yunyi: "Besides, don't you know what everyone in the company is talking about? They're all saying that I came to the company immediately after my uncle's accident because I came to seize power! What kind of nonsense is this!"
"And you still won't let me visit my uncle? If they find out, they'll definitely start spreading all sorts of nonsense!"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Fu replied dismissively, "Similar rumors have circulated countless times over the years. Why do you care what they say? They even claimed before that your uncle killed your parents. Do you believe that?"
Fu Yunyi: "Of course I don't believe it."
Old Master Fu: "That settles it then."
Fu Yunyi: "... Never mind, I'll make an appointment later. You won't stop me, will you? I'm starting to suspect you're deliberately preventing me from seeing my uncle."
Old Master Fu: "No, it's just that your last-minute visit is troublesome and has taken up my time."
After learning that his son had woken up, Old Master Fu knew that everything was probably alright, and he felt much more relaxed, even able to joke around with his eldest grandson again.
Fu Yunyi: "Alright, please say a few words to my uncle for me. I'll go see him next time."
Old Master Fu: "Mmm-hmm."
She should focus all her attention on her son; her eldest grandson should take a backseat for now.
After hanging up the phone, Old Master Fu turned his head and saw Xia Zhiyi silently looking out the car window, seemingly not having heard their conversation at all.
Old Master Fu: " Zhiyi, keep an eye on things when Yunyi comes later."
"This kid, he's so loud and boisterous when no one's around. And he's a celebrity. If he gets spotted by someone, who knows what kind of rumors will spread."
Xia Zhiyi turned her head at the sound, looked at the old man, and smiled, "Okay."
On the other end of the line, Fu Yunyi hung up the phone and returned to the conference room with a blank expression, his face indifferent. "The old man has gone to the hospital. I'll chair today's meeting. Let's begin."
It seems plausible, if only he wasn't secretly crying inside.
Xia Zhiyi led the old man into the ward. The nurse was changing his dressing when she saw the two of them come in. She smiled slightly as a greeting.
Seeing the nurse smile, Old Master Fu seemed to have confirmed something and breathed a sigh of relief.
After the nurse left, the old man whispered, "Being able to laugh means there's really no problem."
They just asked the nurse, and although Fu Chi hasn't woken up yet, he's definitely fine.
Just keep it.
As they were talking, Xia Zhiyi helped the old man sit down on a chair. She turned around to pour him a glass of water, but out of the corner of her eye, she noticed the man lying on the bed twitch his fingers, and her body stiffened slightly.
He turned around abruptly, ignoring the old man's reaction, and walked a few steps to the bedside, staring intently at the person on the bed.
As if sensing his gaze, the person sleeping peacefully on the bed changed; thick eyelashes began to flutter, and as the frequency of the fluttering changed, he seemed about to wake up...
Such an obvious commotion was enough for the old man to see; he couldn't sit still any longer. He got up and walked to the other side of the bed, where he and Xia Zhiyi stared at the person on the bed.
Finally, in his sleep, the man seemed to have struggled for a while, his eyelids twitching countless times before he suddenly opened his eyes.
But at that moment, Xia Zhiyi took a step back, as if trying to avoid his gaze.
Upon realizing her action, Xia Zhiyi froze for a moment, her feelings a bit complicated.
He hadn't expected that he would feel like backing down at a time like this, when he clearly had nothing to be afraid of, right?
Even if Fu Chi really forgot about him because of the car accident, he wouldn't be so heartbroken and dramatic over a man. If things really got too bad, he could always break up with him...
" A-Yi..."
A hoarse and weak voice broke through Xia Zhiyi's chaotic thoughts. When Xia Zhiyi, she was already standing by the bedside, holding his hand that was not receiving an IV drip.
Xia Zhiyi's lips moved slightly. "You..."
Before he could finish speaking, the old man, who was even more anxious than him, asked directly, " A-Chi, how are you? How are you feeling? Are you dizzy? Where does it hurt? Do you remember who you are? What time is it?"
Xia Zhiyi: "..."
Sir, aren't you... in too much of a hurry?
Seeing how composed and measured the old man seemed before, I really thought he wasn't in such a hurry.
So you were keeping it all bottled up?
Upon hearing Fu Chi's hoarse call, Xia Zhiyi knew that the man in front of her was still her boyfriend, and all her previous worries vanished instantly.
At this moment, he exchanged a glance with Fu Chi, knowing that Fu Chi was probably not fully awake yet. He then told the old man, called the doctor over, and poured Fu Chi a glass of warm water. He gently sat by the bedside and served Fu Chi a glass of water, relieving the dryness in his throat.
Just as he was about to leave with the cup, his hand, which was resting on the pillow, was gently touched. Xia Zhiyi looked down and gazed into a pair of exceptionally deep, dark eyes.
It seems... something is still amiss.
