Chapter 204: 204: Can ‘t Imagine What Will
Lin Zhiya was so worried about her precious little grandson she was beside herself with anxiety. Seeing that he had not answered a single question, she didn’t want to waste time with him and dashed towards the presidential suite.
“Mrs. Lin.” Cui Jiangjing was inside, lounging with his legs crossed, having just opened a bottle of super expensive red wine and preparing to enjoy it. Seeing her come in, he hurriedly set the wine glass down, obediently stood up, and glowered at the man who followed her in.
Oh, Shengxiao, this jerk! Mrs. Lin was about to enter and he hadn’t even given him a heads-up; his good image in front of her was about to be ruined!
Unfortunately, his ‘angry glare’ was completely ignored by someone, infuriating Cui Jiangjing to the point where he clenched his teeth audibly.
Lin Zhiya did not notice these small details; upon entering, she directly asked, “Jiangjing, where is Duidui?”
“He’s in the room inside.” Cui Jiangjing couldn’t care less about his ‘angry glare’ project now and walked ahead to lead the way, “I’ll take you to see him.”
He walked ahead, opened the bedroom door, and there on the
2.5 -meters-wide, ultra-soft bed, a tiny person lying there was especially jarring.
“Duidui!” Lin Zhiya hurried forward, her emotions surging. Upon seeing the pale little face of the child on the bed, her eyes reddened in an instant, and she covered her mouth, her voice choking with apology, “It’s grandma’s fault, it’s all my fault, grandma should have kept you close, shouldn’t have handed you over to someone else. If it wasn’t for me, you wouldn’t have fallen into the water…”
The thought of her nice and obedient little grandchild nearly drowning made her feel as if a knife was twisting in her heart, so much so that she wished it was her who almost drowned!
Standing by, Cui Jiangjing saw her tears and silently handed her a tissue, softly comforting her, “Mrs. Lin, Duidui is fine, I just checked on him, he’s currently just exhausted and fainted from overexertion. Once he wakes up, he’ll be fine. He just needs to have an X-ray at our hospital afterwards to check if there’s any water in his lungs.”
“I think there shouldn’t be any, Rong Yan rescued him very timely. Shengxiao immediately pressed the water out of his belly, his pulse and heartbeat are all normal, it’s more likely he fainted from exhaustion.”
Lin Zhiya, whose heart was previously in agony, felt a little relief upon hearing his words. Looking at her grandson lying on the bed, she suppressed her heartache and said to the people behind, “Let’s go out first, we’ll talk outside.”
She had many more questions to ask; talking here was too noisy and could disturb her grandson’s rest.
Cui Jiangiing and Li Shenzxiao followed her out.
Once they were in the living room, Lin Zhiya first asked Rong Yan, “I didn’t see Yan. Where is she?”
Li Shengxiao’s stern eagle eyes softened imperceptibly as he said, “She’s showering below. She was soaked through, so I asked her to change into a set of clothes before coming up, to prevent catching a cold.”
Lin Zhiya also saw Rong Yan’s drenched appearance and, knowing that she was changing clothes after taking a shower below, said nothing more. She turned around with an angry look on her face and stared straight at him, asking with annoyance, “Shengxiao, did you find out how Duidui fell into the lake?”
Her voice could not hide the fury within as she said, “I just asked Duidui’s assistant, who said she only left for a few minutes, and Duidui disappeared.
They couldn’t find him anywhere! If Yan had not discovered Duidui by the lake and saved him in time, I can’t even bear to think what might have happened to him.
Duidui isn’t the kind of child who runs around carelessly; he’s a calm and sensible child who sometimes makes my heart ache with how well-behaved he is. I don’t believe he would go to the lake for no reason…”
What she was saying was essentially that she didn’t believe he had accidentally slipped; instead, someone might have pushed him in on purpose!
