4544 The Other Side 513

"No warning at all…"

For some reason, Chu He's heart sank.

Baby Chu's condition was clearly stabilizing, but for some reason, she could not be happy at all because of Little Yichen's situation. She liked Little Yichen very much.

Back then, Gu Jinglian had also mentioned this child. In order to protect Lisa and Youyou, Little Yichen had sacrificed unimaginable things.

Why was life so unfair to this sensible and obedient child?

…

When Chu He returned to the ward, Yun Shishi, who had just finished washing some clothes, quickly came up to her and asked, "Have you asked the doctor? How's Baby Chu?"

Chu He did not know what to say to her, so she only smiled and replied, "The doctor said that the boy's condition has stabilized."

"Really?!" Yun Shishi relaxed her brow in delight, feeling genuinely happy for Chu He.

"That's great. Does this mean that if all goes well, Baby Chu will be released from the quarantine zone soon?"

"Before the vaccine is developed, we can't be sure. They can't leave the quarantine zone before they completely recover."

"Then… at least it means that Baby Chu's situation is much more optimistic."

Yun Shishi asked again, "Did the doctor talk about Little Yichen's condition?"

"…" Chu He's expression darkened slightly.

She was someone who could not hide her thoughts. At the mention of Little Yichen, she didn't look too good.

When Yun Shishi noticed this, she immediately sensed something wrong and probed, "The doctor said that Little Yichen's situation isn't very optimistic, right?"

"Uh huh."

"What's the situation?" She grabbed Chu He's hand. "Chu He, please tell me the truth!"

"I don't want to hide it from you, either, Shishi. Little Yichen is in very critical condition. His condition is much more serious than you think. There's a little girl who already… Her parents signed her body donation agreement this morning… Little Yichen's condition is much more serious than hers. Even the doctor lamented that perhaps his willpower is especially strong to be able to last until now!"

Before Chu He could finish her sentence, tears rolled down Yun Shishi's eyes. Seeing this, Chu He was even more at a loss.

"Shishi, I didn't want to say it, but I hope you're mentally prepared. No one wants the worst to happen, but… I can't hide anything anyway."

Yun Shishi lowered her head in a daze and wiped her tears with the back of her hand. "It's alright, it's alright… I did ask you to tell me the truth."

However, even though she was comforting Yun Shishi, the woman's tears wouldn't stop falling.

Yun Shishi choked on her sobs. "That's impossible! Little Yichen and I video call each other every night. He seems to be in a very optimistic state. I even thought that he was about to recover… I've already… I've already made plans for when he returns!"

Chu He exhaled. "That's because he doesn't want you to worry. Actually, he knows his own condition best. I heard that one time, he went into shock after hanging up the phone because he was exhausted and they had used a defibrillator to pull him back."

"Ahhh…" Yun Shishi became nervous. "Should I stop the daily video calls with him…"

"…Sit down first, Shishi." Chu He's heart ached at the sight of the other woman's helplessness.

Yun Shishi was extremely disappointed. The thought of Little Yichen pretending to be fine when he was so seriously ill made her heart ache even more.
