Chapter 525 be with you (1/2)
\”Boss, are you alright?\”
\”How do you feel? Should I call the doctor?\”
\”Are you hungry? Thirsty? What do you want to eat and drink? I'll go buy it.\”
\”Boss lady, you gave me a fright when I saw you collapsed.\”
This time inside the private ward of Imperial Military Hospital, it was Liu Shan, Qi Li, Lin Hui and Xu Long's turn to flood the atmosphere with questions.
As the four men continue to ask Yue Ling, standing behind them, Ji Jingxu was struck in a daze. As Yue Ling's brother, shouldn't he be the first out of them to ask her questions?
How is it that he was the first to rush inside the room but was the first to be shoved behind by these grown acting like wild hyenas?
Inhaling a deep breath, he stretch his arm out and taps on Qi Li's shoulder, then Lin Hui's, then Xu Long and Liu Shan.
Feeling the light tap, all four men turn to the person and blink their eyes questionably.
Ji Jingxu glares at the four men and stuck out his right arm. Before any of them could ask questions, his hand slaps left and right like he was swapping a bunch of flies away.
Seeing this, four pair of eyes glance at one another and quickly came to an understanding.
\”Aiya! What a strong and powerful slap!\”
Liu Shan pretends to act like the slap had hit him so hard across the face and he jumps to the side.
\”Oh no! Su Wukong cannot escape buddha's palm!\”
Xu Long also puts on an act and he spins away to the side in circles like he was dancing in a field of flowers.
Watching the two assistants, it was Qi Li's turn. Not sure of what to do, he clears his throat and turn his head to the left before scooting away like he was riding a horse.
\”Too strong! This one cannot withstand!\”
Lin Hui twirls around to jump, but almost crashing into Grandfather Ji, he arch his back like a C.
His eyes met with the old man's eyes for a quick second before he clasps both his palms together and tip toes away like a ballerina.
\”May the force be with you.\”
Seeing the four idiots come to an understanding and made a path for him, Ji Jingxu moves his right hand closer to his face. He pretends to flick back the imaginary long hair he has and approach with sister with his chin high like he was noble son.
Yue Ling: \”…\”
Grandfather Ji: \”…\”
Both the grandfather and granddaughter duo watched the scene unfold with heavy eyelids. Neither were able to intervene because they were sure whether to laugh or cry at the sight of them.
\”Ahem.\”
Grandfather Ji clears his throat with a cough as he tries to maintain his composure. He wanted to laugh but could only hold himself back so the five boys could keep their dignity.
However, unlike the old man, Yue Ling burst into laughter after being unable to hold her laugh in. She was no longer laying down but had positioned the hospital bed to allow her to sit up.
No matter how serious a situation gets, she is glad to have people like this to break the tense atmosphere. With them around, she can always smile without worry.
Hearing her singsong laughter, everyone in the room also smile with her. She is like the sun that brightens one's darkened day and gives them life.
\”Jie, it's nice to hear you laugh.\”
Ji Jingxu was the first to speak. Ever since her arrival in Imperial, he has seen her smile and laugh, but not like this.
If what he did can make her smile and laugh, he doesn't mind repeating it again.
Yue Ling was finally able to calm herself down when she heard her brother's words. She looks at him with a slight frown and pursed her lip.
\”What are you saying? Don't I always smile and laugh like this?\”
\”Mm. You always have.\”
Instead of telling her what was on his mind, Ji Jingxu nods his head and agrees with her. Later when she recovers, if she asks again, he'll tell her.

Suddenly the sound of a phone vibrating echoes inside the room and each person looks at one another to see who forgot to turn their phone off.
