Yan Yaoxuan said: "My house is messy enough. If you're fine, then just leave."

After speaking, he also went into the ward. Mrs. Yan had already been taken off the ventilator and was able to speak. Shen Jintai sat next to her with a smile on his face and tears in his eyes.

"Did I give you a scare?" Mrs. Yan touched his hand and said weakly: "It's okay."

Shen Jintai didn't know what to say. He was uncontrollably happy to see Mrs. Yan able to speak again.

Mrs. Yan was still very weak. The Yan family hired a professional caretaker that would care for her 24/7 in addition to Old Lady Fang who refused to leave and insisted on staying at the ward. Shen Jintai sat inside for a while before he came out. Suddenly he saw someone rushing over. He was startled and hurriedly grabbed the man's arm: "What's the matter?!"

"The chairman is awake!" The man said excitedly.

Shen Jintai followed the man into Mrs. Yan's ward. Yan Yaoxuan and the others were overjoyed hearing the news. Mrs. Yan burst into tears as Old Lady fang wiped her own eyes and said: "Finally, you can feel at ease now."

Shen Jintai also wanted to shed tears as well. He was incredibly happy for himself and for Mrs. Yan. He felt he needed to tell Yan Qiuchi the news quickly.

"My brother went back to the hotel to sleep. He recently just left not long ago." Yan Yaoxuan said.

Shen Jintai immediately took the car back to the hotel. On the way, he told Li Meilan and Xiao Tang and they too, were overjoyed by the news. Li Meilan smiled and said: "Thank goodness. I've been holding onto my heart this whole time!"

Emotions can easily influence others. Shen Jintai suddenly felt relief. When he returned to the hotel, he immediately ran into the bedroom excitedly but saw Yan Qiuchi lying on his side of the bed, his body curled up slightly and he was sleeping soundly.

He returned to the living room, and Li Meilan asked in a low voice: "Is he sleeping?"

Shen Jintai nodded and said in a low voice: "You all go back first. Thank you for your hard work."

"Then Brother Jin, call me if you need something." Xiao Tang said.

After sending them away, Shen Jintai took off his coat, went to the bedroom, sat by the bed for a while, then took off his shoes and crawled into bed, lying gently behind Yan Qiuchi with his head rested against his shoulder and his arms gently resting on his waist.

His sadness and worry were not only just his feelings for the Yan family but also because they were Yan Qiuchi's parents. He loves Yan Qiuchi, so he didn't want him to be sad and he didn't want him to lose such good parents.

Now that everything is better, he wanted to tell Yan Qiuchi the good news immediately, but he wanted him to sleep a little longer. Seeing him so haggard made Shen Jintai distressed so he didn't want to wake up, but he was afraid that Yan Qiuchi might suffer in his dreams.

He laughed slightly, his eyes moistened as he put his face on Yan Qiuchi's back and closed his eyes. He too can now get a good night's sleep. He wasn't sure how long he stayed there but he suddenly woke up in a daze. He didn't know when, but Yan Qiuchi had already turned around and faced him. Darkness covered the room. After he moved, he realized that Yan Qiuchi had woken up.

"Uncle Yan woke up." Was the first thing that he said.

Yan Qiuchi responded with: "Nn. I saw the text sent by Yaoxuan."

Shen Jintai stretched out his hand and wrapped his arms around Yan Qiuchi's neck. Yan Qiuchi hugged him and the two embraced as their heart beat against each other's.

Shen Jintai felt that life was very fragile. A loved one can leave at any moment. Life was so impermanent, and the time spent together was even more precious. They couldn't see each other clearly in the dark, but they were familiar with each other's smell. When he breathed in Yan Qiuchi's scent, his heart felt full.

"What's the matter?" Yan Qiuchi asked.

"It's nothing," Shen Jintai said: "I just suddenly felt that I love you more than I thought."

Their hearts have never been so close before. For the first time, Shen Jintai felt the deep bond they had formed, one that cared for each other and each other's families. This was something more precious than passion and will accompany them for a lifetime.

Yan Qiuchi touched his face. His skin was warm, and his fingertips were warmer.

The author has something to say:
