Jiang Weiche came out of the cafeteria and returned to the laboratory. Just when he was about to continue calculating data, his cell phone suddenly made a sound.
Someone called him.
Jiang Weiche took out his mobile phone, and on the screen was a series of numbers that he knew by heart.
There was no note, but he knew in his heart who the caller was.
No, I can't let that person affect me anymore.
Jiang Weiche was thinking to himself, his eyes were slightly in a trance, and his mind wanted to refuse the call, but his hand pressed the green connect button very quickly.
Oops, he felt a little out of control, and his ears couldn't help but start to expect the voice on the other side of the phone.
Unexpectedly, there was a sad cry on the other side of the phone. Jiang Weiche's heart felt like being pricked by needles, and he said the words without thinking:
"What's wrong? Did my dad bully you?"
The man's usually cold voice was now as soft as dripping water, and it also had an obvious comforting meaning.
Ren Qiaoyin, who was also in the laboratory, was confused and quietly tilted his ears, trying to find out the identity of the person on the other end of the phone.
"Cheche, your dad, your dad was in a car accident. He is in the emergency room now. I...I'm a little scared...wuwuwuwu~"
Ren Qiaoyin vaguely heard some words, such as "your dad", "emergency room", etc. There was also a whimpering female voice over there. She speculated that his father might be unwell.
As for the crying female voice, it should be his elder.
Ren Qiaoyin comforted herself and ignored some unpleasant emotions in her heart.
No wonder Wei Che has been in a strange state recently.
Jiang Weiche didn't feel it himself, thinking that he was no different from before, but just a little more diligent.
But in the eyes of outsiders: since he returned to school, he has been confused and obviously has something on his mind.
Even Ren Qiaoyin didn't dare to get close to show her kindness.
She now understands that it must be because her uncle has been feeling unwell recently, and Junior Wei Che is too worried.
"I'll be right away, don't worry."
Jiang Weiche comforted the person on the other end of the phone, and as soon as the call was hung up, he immediately left and drove to the hospital address mentioned by Zhu Huayan, leaving a message for Ren Qiaoyin.
"Senior sister, please help me tell the teacher that I have something to do at home and may have to take a long leave."
"Okay, don't worry too much, uncle will be fine."
Ren Qiaoyin wanted to follow him to see Uncle Jiang's condition, but she knew that she had no position, so she could only agree to his request and offer words of comfort.
Jiang Weiche drove very fast. Fortunately, the lights were green all the way and he arrived at the hospital soon.
After getting out of the car, Jiang Weiche ran quickly to the hospital, asking the passing nurses and doctors for directions, and stumbled around until he reached the door of the emergency room.
Zhu Huayan was the only one outside the door, her thin figure leaning weakly against the wall of the hospital.
"Hua Yan."
Jiang Weiche called her.
Zhu Huayan turned around, her eyes slightly red, her eyes desperate and begging, as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.
Jiang Weiche took a few steps forward and couldn't help but pull the person into his arms. Feeling that the person in his arms was still trembling slightly, he comforted in a low voice:
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Being wrapped in a warm embrace, Zhu Huayan finally felt a sense of security.
Originally, she was watching idol TV series at home and felt very bored. She thought that when Zhiting came back, she would complain to him and get angry.
Who knew that a sudden phone call made her fall into an ice cave, and for a moment, she felt as if she had lost her hearing.
She couldn't hear anything about "the patient collided with a large truck driven by a drunk driver" and "all parts of the body were seriously injured".
If the last phone call hadn't mentioned that "the patient's condition is critical," she might not have been able to recover.
Zhu Huayan rarely made decisions on her own. Dancing was a requirement of her sponsor. After going to school, she fell in love with Jiang Zhiting. She had never suffered any major events by herself.
She was helpless to bear such a big and important matter between life and death, and was extremely scared.
To be able to hold on until now is the best that the temporary courage born of worrying about Jiang Zhiting's safety can achieve.
Someone is coming now.
Even if the person next to her now is just her boyfriend's son and has no deep relationship with her, she just wants to rest in that embrace that shields her from the wind and rain.
"You, why did you come here?"
Zhu Huayan was sitting in a car driven by the driver of the villa. He was speeding all the way and came very quickly. He also saw the horrifying appearance of Jiang Zhiting covered in blood.
She was extremely worried, her body was shaking slightly, tears were streaming down her face, and she wanted to vent her grievances to the person in front of her.
Jiang Weiche felt that her heart was drowned by her tears. He slowly raised his hand and placed it on the back of Zhu Huayan's head:
"Sorry, it's my fault. Don't be afraid, I'm coming."
Only then did Zhu Huayan relax completely, and her silent tears turned into unstoppable wailing. She was extremely sad.
While Jiang Weiche was worried about his father's safety in the operating room, he also felt sorry for the person in his arms. His heart seemed to be split in two.
But the emotions in both halves were bitter.
The two hugged each other to comfort each other, looking at the dazzling red light outside the emergency room, anxiously waiting for a result.
The time was extremely long, and every second seemed to have been deliberately extended tens of thousands of times.
When people are about to become numb, the lights go out.
A doctor in a white coat and blue mask came out and shook his head at the anxious two people with a sad expression on his face.
"The patient's brain suffered a major impact and the bleeding could not be stopped. We tried our best."
Zhu Huayan's mind went blank. After listening to the doctor's words, she passed out due to excessive emotion.
When she woke up again, she was lying on a white hospital bed with someone watching over her.
"Zhiting?"
As if he had forgotten about the emergency room, he looked at the person lying prone and resting and called tentatively.
Jiang Weiche woke up. Since Zhu Huayan fainted, he arranged for her to enter the ward to rest, while making phone calls to arrange her father's affairs and take care of the company's affairs.
The three things made him physically and mentally exhausted. After finally dealing with them temporarily, he had time to take a nap in a quiet room.
Now only by Zhu Huayan's side could he relax temporarily.
Everything changed too quickly, and his father's unexpected death caused his world to become chaotic.
I originally thought that I would consider taking over the company after finishing graduate school and studying for a few more years as a Ph.D., but because of Zhu Huayan, I came into contact with the company a few years earlier.
But at least his father was still there at that time, so he didn't need to abandon his studies or focus all his energy on the company.
But now, everything will not be what he wants.
How chaotic the company will be, and how he will be unable to do anything in it, are all headaches.
Jiang Weiche rarely thought of escaping and hid in Zhu Huayan's single ward to relax temporarily.
But Zhu Huayan's tentative call knocked him to the bottom in an instant.
