Chapter 634: Situ Xin Advancing (3)_1
And after Situ Xin was moved from the intensive care unit to a regular hospital room, she saw Xiao Muli insisting on standing by her bed, his complexion much paler, and said with concern, "Brother Muli, you should go back to your room to rest. I’m already fine."
However, Xiao Muli firmly shook his head. "Baby, I’m fine. I will stay with you a little longer." Xiao Muli was resolute. After going through so much, he felt that only by staying by Situ Xin’s side, being able to see her at all times, would his heart settle.
He had truly been frightened by Situ Xin’s condition before, and now, the thought of nearly losing her gave him chills.
"Hey, Xiao lad, what’s this, you’re clinging to my Baby, let me tell you," Old Master Situ, seeing Xiao Muli steadfastly by his Baby, Situ Xin’s bedside, impossible to drive away, suddenly remembered the situation he had neglected before due to worry over Situ Xin’s condition. His anger began to flare up. He intended to scold Xiao Muli, but as he spoke and saw Xiao Muli’s pale, weary face, the words he had prepared stifled in his throat.
Old Master Situ had a fiery temper but a soft heart. He couldn’t bear to see others in a vulnerable state. Now, looking at Xiao Muli’s pallid, tired face, Old Master Situ remembered how Xiao Muli got his injuries and the saddened look on his face as he had watched over his Baby’s hospital bed.
The fire in his heart subsided considerably.
"Old man, settle down a bit, can’t you see Muli’s not looking good?" Old Madam Situ disapprovingly glared at Old Master Situ and then turned to persuade Xiao Muli, "Muli, go and rest first. Once you’ve rested well, you can come back here to accompany Baby." Old Madam Situ was genuinely worried that the young lad from the Xiao family, just recovered, might collapse again because of her precious Baby.
"Grandma Situ, I’m okay. Even if I go back now, I won’t be able to rest well. The moment I can’t see Baby, my heart feels terrifyingly empty; please just let me stay here," Xiao Muli said these simple words, which made Situ Xin feel a profound sense of unease.
Her eyes turned red involuntarily. She regretted internally, regretting why she had been so conflicted over her feelings for Xiao Muli. With Xiao Muli loving her so deeply, what was there to be conflicted about? And at that moment, the tender shoot that had just sprouted in the depths of Situ Xin’s heart grew significantly taller.
After giving Xiao Muli a look, Situ Xin said to Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo, "Grandpa, Grandfather, please have the doctor add another bed to this room. Let Brother Muli stay here. That way, it will be more convenient for you when you come to the hospital to take care of us."
