Chapter 985 - Chapter 985: I Like You (70) (2/2)
When he walked to the nurses ‘duty room nearby, Xu Chengfeng told the nurse about Zuo Yue’s condition and left immediately.
The nurse was a little confused. Didn’t Mr. Xu always care about his niece? Why didn’t he go back to help the little girl when she fell? Instead, he only asked them to go over. Moreover, Mr. Xu left in the middle of the night. His attitude seemed so cold and scary…
However, the nurse was still afraid that something had happened to the patient. She quickly ran to Zuo Yue’s ward and pushed the door open. She saw Zuo Yue lying on the ground without moving, as if she had fainted. She immediately shouted and hurriedly went forward to help her up.
..
The next night, Xu Chengfeng, who had not appeared in the hospital for the entire day, received a call from the hospital.
“Mr. Xu, Miss Zuo has been unconscious since last night. She has a high fever and is in a coma. Her condition is a little serious. The doctor is giving her a specialist consultation. There is no one else in the hospital now. When can you come and take a look? Miss Zuo has not woken up yet…”
Xu Chengfeng put down the phone and was silent for a long time. He got up and walked to the French window of the CEO’s office of the technology company. He looked in the direction of the private hospital from afar and the light that was always on in one of the windows.

When Zuo Yue woke up again, she felt that someone was using a cotton swab to wet her mouth. She thought that her uncle had returned. She did not know how long she had slept, but she still turned her eyes.
“You’re awake?” After Xu Yuan gently moistened her dry lips, she said with heartache,””How did you get so sick? If Chengfeng hadn’t called me last night to tell me that you had been sick for many days, I wouldn’t have known that you were lying in the hospital.”
Zuo Yue looked at Xu Yuan, who had come to Boston at some point in time, in surprise. She slowly looked around, but there was no sign of Xu Chengfeng.
“Stop looking. Your uncle has been very busy recently and doesn’t have time to come over and take care of you. That’s why he informed me last night. I rushed here overnight. You’ve been sleeping ever since we arrived. Now that you’re finally awake, are you trying to scare me to death?”
Xu Yuan poured another glass of water as she spoke. She helped Zuo Yue sit up and fed her,””Drink some water. I really don’t know why you’re so sick. It’s fine if you have a fever, but you’ve even developed pneumonias. It’s fine if you have pneumonias, but now it’s severe pneumonias.”
Zuo Yue’s eyes darkened as she explained in a low voice,”” A few nights ago, I suddenly felt like I’ve gained a lot of weight, so I went to the school’s sports field to run. I sweated a lot, and then I was exposed to the cold wind. That’s all…”
“Fat? Are you still considered fat like this? Then why did you ask those who were really fat to live?”Xu Yuan was angry and heartbroken as she helped her lie back down.”You’re already thin enough. Now that you’re sick, you’ve lost even more weight. What are you thinking?”
Zuo Yue did not explain. She only looked at the many more needle marks on the back of her hand. After thinking for a while, she suddenly said,””Mom, did Uncle say that he will be busy in the future and won’t have time to take care of me, so he doesn’t want to take care of me anymore?”
Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment.” I didn’t hear him say that. He only called me last night to tell me about your illness. It’s considered informing me. After all, I’m your mother. It’s his responsibility and human nature for him to inform me when you’re so sick. It has nothing to do with whether or not he wants to continue taking care of you.”
“Didn’t he say that he won’t care about me anymore?”Zuo Yue did not know how pale her face was, but she was obsessed with this question.
Xu Yuan furrowed her eyebrows.” Zuo Yue, I asked Chengfeng to take care of you. I only asked him to help me look after you occasionally, but he doesn’t have to be by your side all the time. He’s not someone who has much free time to begin with. He has already taken care of you for so many days. Now that I’m here, I only have something to do. Don’t overthink it.””
