Early that morning, Luo Yunjie brought the tonic she bought the day before to the hospital to visit Ruan Qianyi. The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they suddenly had a lot to talk about.
"Oh, Yun Jie, you've been living quite well abroad these past few years. You're getting younger and younger now." Ruan Qianyi looked at Luo Yunjie with envy and said. His complexion was clearly much better than before.
Luo Yunjie smiled and helped her peel a Fire Dragon Fruit before placing it on a plate beside her. She playfully winked at her and said, "I don't mind telling you all the maintenance manuals."
Ruan Qianyi really did believe her. He immediately moved his head over and waited for Luo Yunjie to say something. Who knew that she would secretly whisper something that would make Ruan Qianzhi blush and be extremely embarrassed.
"You don't have to joke with me, I'm already this old." Ruan Qianyi couldn't help but hit Luo Yunjie.
Although the two of them were good friends, there was still a difference of one round.
Luo Yunjie only laughed, "Where? Right now, there are so many female celebrities who are still radiant even when they're in their seventies or eighties. You're only in your early fifties, you're still young at all. "
Ruan Qianyi was very happy to hear that, but he didn't take her words seriously. As the two chatted, they still talked about Mika and Ling Yiheng.
"Have they been seeing each other lately? I've been in the hospital so long, and I'm not sure how light they are. You're different, always with the kids. "
Listening to Ruan Qianyi's question, Luo Yunjie's face slightly changed. She originally wanted to speak the truth, but after considering Ruan Qianyi's body, she could only perfunctorily say that she had just come back from abroad and didn't really know the situation.
Although hearing what Luo Yunjie said, Ruan Qianyi was still worried, "Yi Heng is not young anymore. I hope that they can get married and have a child as soon as possible."
Luo Yunjie did not answer and only smiled. She cut the fruit into pieces, placed it on the plate and gave it to her.
"By the way, did Mika go back to Boston? Or is it still in Ming City? " Ruan Qianzhi asked as he ate the grapes.
Luo Yunjie frowned. "She was planning to leave next Monday, but she found out that she had a fever this morning. She didn't know why, but she was still lying at home and didn't want to go to the hospital. So she took an antipyretic."
Ruan Qianyi could not remain calm after hearing that, "What? Why didn't you tell me this kid had a fever? "
Luo Yunjie took the fruit platter to the side and waved it off. "It's not a big deal, don't worry."
"How is this not a big matter? What if he had a fever? "No, I have to call Yi Heng and have him take Mika to the hospital!"
As he said that, he picked up the phone and dialed Ling Yiheng's number without waiting for Luo Yunjie's reply.
Just as Ling Yiheng was preparing to pack up and rush to the airport, he heard the phone ring. He originally wanted to answer the call when he was on the road, but after glancing at his mother's caller ID, he accepted the call.
Ruan Qianyi told him about the fever and insisted that he go to see her at her house and take her to the hospital.
Ling Yiheng felt a headache coming on, saying that he had to go on a business trip abroad and ask Zhou Heng to visit her. But Ruan Qianyi refused and said that even if it was a huge matter now, she had to let it go and visit Mika.
In her heart, Mika was a precious daughter-in-law that she had long recognized. Sometimes, she was even more important than this son. If she was sick, she would feel more heartache than anyone else.
Ling Yiheng had no choice but to change the ticket and go straight to Mika's home.
Because he was anxious, he ran several red lights along the way.
As soon as he reached the door of the Mika house, he rang the doorbell. It took him a long time to hear her weak voice, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Mika. Open the door and I'll take you to the hospital."
Upon hearing Ling Yi Heng's voice, Mika immediately opened the door, looking pleasantly at the person in front of her. "Yi Heng, you're here."
Because she was sick, she only wore simple pajamas and no makeup. There were beads of sweat on her forehead, and the strands of hair on both sides of her face were also wet. It was probably due to the fever and sweat. Her face was flushed and her body looked weak.
Ling Yiheng looked at her and immediately said, "Go and change your clothes, I will take you to the hospital."
However, she shook her head with watery eyes. "I don't need to go to the hospital. I'll be fine very soon."
Her throat seemed swollen, and she struggled to speak. Her voice was hoarse and weak.
"Nonsense, your fever is so severe, how can you not go to the hospital?" As she spoke, she forgot about the awkwardness between them. She stretched out her hand and touched her forehead. Indeed, it was boiling hot.
Mika's body stiffened at his actions, but she quickly reacted. Just as he was about to take his hand back, Mika grabbed his wrist and said softly, "Yi-heng gege, can you stay with me?" I don't want to go to the hospital. "
Being touched by her skin and pressed against his own, Ling Yi's heart tightened. He wanted to take her hand away, but seeing how weak she was, he couldn't bear to make her sad again at a time like this. So he let her hold it.
The cool autumn wind blew into her hair, instantly reducing her boiling temperature. She could not help but take a deep breath.
Ling Yiheng realized that she couldn't be bothered by the wind and immediately closed the door. However, she regretted it the moment she closed the door. She should have been in the car waiting for her to change.
In the end, seeing that she really didn't want to go to the hospital, Ling Yiheng had no choice but to call the family's doctor over to treat her. Fortunately, she didn't have a severe fever, so she just needed to hang up for two days and drip a bit. She also instructed Ling Yiheng that she couldn't catch cold in the next two days and needed to rest as much as possible.
Mike was lying on his bed, looking drowsy, but he kept opening his eyes to look at Ling Yiheng, afraid that if she fell asleep, he wouldn't be there. When he woke up, there was only the cold room left.
"Big brother Yi Heng, can you not leave?" She began to beg again, in a low voice, as if she were about to drop into the dust.
Ling Yiheng lowered his head and looked at the watch on his wrist, then turned his head and comforted her, "Be at ease, I will wait for you to finish your shot before I leave."
"No, don't leave even after I finish fighting. You'll stay here today, okay?" Her appearance, coupled with her sickly appearance, made her bright, lacquered eyes seem even more pitiful.
Ling Yiheng only hesitated for a moment, then turned his head away, not looking at her, "I still have things to do, I can't accompany you for that long."
The rejection was obvious, but whether it was due to illness or unwillingness, Mika was acting up now. "I'm sorry, I want you to stay here with me."
He said he was just playing around, but someone had to take the blow. She remained motionless, waiting for his agreement.
However, Ling Yiheng avoided the crucial point and said, "If you put a drop in and eat it, you'll be fine."
Seeing his almost expressionless face, she smiled. With bitterness in her eyes and lips, her voice sounded even more hoarse than before, "I've waited for you for three years, can't you accompany me for a day?"
These words were said with hidden bitterness. His eyes were full of grievance. His face was gloomy as he stared at him in a daze.
It wasn't that Ling Yiheng hadn't seen it, but that he couldn't give her any hope.
Although she was reluctant to part, she was hurt even more by what she said, "Mika, our engagement was a mistake. If we had been married, or I would have gladly accepted it, I would have tried to build up a relationship with you. However, the times have changed and many things have changed. I am no longer able to give you happiness. "
His eyes were complicated, but his tone was firm. If he didn't explain everything to her and didn't let her completely understand, the future would only bring her more harm.
His words made Mika's eyes sparkle, and her tone became choked with sobs, "Times change, it's because Zixian, he can't give me happiness, it's because you want to give her happiness, right?"
She had never wanted to ask this question, nor did she dare to. However, the situation in front of her forced her to forcibly open her wound.
Ling Yiheng stared straight at her, "Mika, I can't lie to you. Our relationship really should end. I can always take care of you as your brother, but it definitely can't be a husband."
At this point, he thought that she could understand, that even if he was sad, he would slowly let it go.
But this angered her even more, making her shy, angry, and resentful. Her face became even redder, and tears began to flow out of her eyes. "Am I not going to let you see me like this? With a single word, you destroyed my relationship for more than three years? "
He did not say anything, not knowing how to respond. He only regretted agreeing to this marriage.
She was so angry that her hands were trembling. "In the three years I've been engaged to you, I've never asked for anything from you. Now that I'm sick, you just have to accompany me for a day."
He didn't want to argue with her at this time, lest her bad mood affected his condition.
"Give us a good shot. We'll talk about this later." Maybe, he thought, when she calmed down and thought about it, she would think it through. It wouldn't be so extreme.
Mika took a deep breath and let it out again. She broke out in a fit of sweat, but her body was not as heavy as before.
However, she didn't want him to leave. Even if she was cured, she didn't want him to leave.
Her door was open, and she heard the door open.
Ling Yiheng glanced at her and stood up, "Don't move, I'll go greet your aunt."
As soon as he walked to the door, he saw that Luo Yunjie had just put down her bag and was walking towards him from the living room.
"Sister Luo, you're back." Instead of calling her aunt, he called her back to what he had called her before his engagement to Mika.
When Luo Yunjie heard his address, she was stunned for a moment before asking him how was Mika. He told her about it, told her where he had prescribed the medicine and when he was taking it, and asked her to take care of Mika.
