Chapter 2118: Chapter 2120: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi
Jiang Nuan didn’t know Fu Yi was outside keeping watch all night. Yesterday, she was half-awake and seemingly heard Lemon arguing with him before drifting back to sleep.
The whole night, she slept intermittently and uncomfortably, almost waking several times from the heat and sweat, but each time she was about to feel unbearable discomfort, a hand would rest on her forehead. That hand was very cool, making her feel much better.
She thought it was Lemon watching over her, muttered something, and then drifted back to sleep.
When she woke up in the morning, Madam Fu had already arrived.
As soon as she opened her eyes, a large group of doctors and nurses came in to check her condition.
After being fussed over repeatedly, her initially dizzy head became much clearer.
"Grand—Grandma."
Her voice was as hoarse and unpleasant as it was yesterday.
Old Madam Fu, however, was very distressed. As soon as Jiang Nuan called, she immediately came over, "Yes, Grandma is here. If Nuannuan needs anything, just tell Grandma."
Jiang Nuan’s throat was dry and uncomfortable. She swallowed, struggling to sit up, drenched in sweat, "I want to drink some water."
"Water, yes. I’ll pour some for you right away, just wait a moment."
Soon, a cup of water was handed to her.
Old Madam Fu helped her up, personally placing a pillow behind her waist, feeding her water carefully, "Drink slowly, if you finish it, Grandma will get you more."
Jiang Nuan drank eagerly, gulping down half the cup, and her parched throat felt a bit better.
She put down the cup and glanced around, looking slightly disappointed.
Fu Yi was not there.
It felt like a stone pressing down on her chest, making it hard to breathe. Jiang Nuan took a deep breath and exhaled, asking Old Madam Fu, who was busying around, "Grandma, did Lemon go to work?"
"Your friend?" Old Madam Fu raised her eyes and asked the people beside her, "She came over in the morning, but seemed to have left after the doctor arrived."
"Oh." Jiang Nuan nodded.
She must have gone to work.
Old Madam Fu was more concerned about her health, gently holding her hand, worriedly asking, "Nuannuan, why didn’t you tell Grandma that you had a fever and were hospitalized last night? Do you know I was worried sick? You only sent me a message saying you stayed at a friend’s house, but didn’t say which friend. I didn’t sleep well all night because of worry, and then in the morning, I heard you were hospitalized..."
Jiang Nuan knew she would worry, bowed her head guiltily, and apologized softly, "I’m sorry, Grandma."
"Oh!" Old Madam Fu sighed heavily, patting the back of her hand, and said softly, "I wasn’t blaming you, the one who should really apologize is me. Nuannuan, it’s Grandma who wronged you. You are a good kid, it’s the Fu family that failed you."
Fu Yi had never told her about Gu Qing and Wei Lou’s relationship. After seeing the news, she, like everyone outside, assumed Fu Yi and Gu Qing’s relationship was improper, making her tremble with anger. When she came over in the morning and saw the man watching outside the ward, she even rushed up and punched him a few times, hating his behavior.
Even after doing that, she still felt she had let Jiang Nuan down.
"Don’t worry, Grandma will definitely give you an explanation for this matter and won’t let you suffer grievances without reason!"
Fu Yi had work to rush back to Hechuan County, but she couldn’t deal with him for the time being. However, as for that female celebrity who knew Fu Yi had a family but still involved the press in causing trouble, she definitely wouldn’t let her off the hook!
And perhaps it’s that saying about Cao Cao—mention him and he appears—because just after the doctor finished checking Jiang Nuan and went out, they were chatting when the housekeeper suddenly knocked and came in.
Jiang Nuan vaguely felt he cast a glance in her direction, her heart full of doubts.
