Lu Tian cautiously led his wife toward a nearby bench, where they waited for any update on Ji Jingxu's condition.
Just as a nurse approached with paperwork to fill out, hurried footsteps caught everyone nearby.
"Ah Ling!"
Grandfather Ji didn't slow down until he reached his granddaughter.
He immediately placed his hands on her shoulders and gave them a gentle shake, careful not to hurt her.
"Where is Jingxu? Are you waiting for him here?"
His eyes darted around the hallway as though his grandson might suddenly appear from behind one of the doors.
When Yue Ling didn't answer, he looked toward the others before turning his attention back to her.
Seeing the dazed expression on her face, his brows furrowed.
He crouched down in front of her, bringing himself to her eye level.
"What is it? Why are you sitting here?"
His voice grew increasingly concerned.
"Is Jingxu not here yet?"
Yue Ling slowly lifted her head.
