"Xixi, today is the first day of the new year, and your Sister Qiangwei has her own affairs to attend to. You must be obedient and understand proper manners, and do not forget, she stayed here all night to watch over you last night."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Xi instantly brightened.
"Okay, then Sister Qiangwei must come to see me tonight, right?"
Gu Qiangwei smiled and made a promise with him, hooked her finger, and finally turned and left the sickroom.
Just as she turned, Qin Sijue suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned back, looking towards Nangong Mingchuan.
Nangong Mingchuan thought he was leaving, and when he suddenly turned back, he also couldn’t help but turn his gaze, meeting his sharp, narrow black eyes.
"These few days, you’d better arrange for some people to guard outside your wife’s sickroom."
This sudden statement made Nangong Mingchuan slightly startled, somewhat puzzled.
Including Gu Qiangwei, who had already left the sickroom, upon hearing his voice, she also couldn’t help but turn back, her expression one of surprise as she looked at him.
Nangong Mingchuan asked, not quite understanding his implication.
"If you don’t want your wife to never wake up, you’d better do as I say."
With that, Qin Sijue did not deal with Nangong Mingchuan any further, nor did he provide any explanation, but turned around, took Gu Qiangwei’s hand, and walked away straight.
Stunned, Nangong Mingchuan stood still, taking a while to come back to his senses.
But after thinking it over, for the sake of his wife’s personal safety, he eventually made a call, arranging for people to guard the door to his wife’s sickroom, including arranging protection for his son’s room as well.
Somewhere within, he seemed to feel that Qin Sijue’s arrangement implied something more.
Could it be that someone was planning to harm his wife?
But with Yuyan’s conflict-free character, she should not have made any enemies, so who would want to harm her?
In the sickroom, Nangong Mingchuan was puzzled, but he did not think on it any further, deciding that as long as he followed Qin Sijue’s instructions and maintained strict vigilance, it would be alright.
As the two just drove away from the hospital, Qin Sijue’s phone rang.
It was Luo Chen calling.
Seeing the caller ID on the dashboard display, Gu Qiangwei spoke excitedly.
Because she had been waiting for Luo Chen to come back and tell her where her mother was currently.
Without waiting for Qin Sijue to react, she had already eagerly stretched out her hand and pressed the answer button on the dashboard display.
Soon, Luo Chen’s voice came through the car’s speaker.
"Mr. Qin, I’ve arrived at the hospital. Where are you?"
"I am heading to the Commander Residence, you send the documents back to Jueyuan."
Gu Qiangwei was startled and couldn’t help but turn to look at Qin Sijue, who was driving.
She wanted to know the results quickly, so why was he still having Luo Chen send the documents back to Jueyuan?
Luo Chen on the other end did not waste words but followed Qin Sijue’s directive.
Then, Gu Qiangwei saw the call being disconnected.
"Qin Sijue, why don’t you let Luo Chen bring the documents here? I want to—"
"You want to know the results quickly?"
Just at the red light, Qin Sijue pulled over, turned his head to look at her in the passenger seat, his eyes deep.
"Of course." There was no need for her to deny it.
"Then what will you do after you know? Do you want to find your mom first or go with your grandmother to Futai Mountain?" he asked her calmly.
Gu Qiangwei hesitated, looking at him blankly, unable to answer.
If she knew her mother’s location, she would definitely be eager to find her mother first, and then she would break the appointment to go to Futai Mountain with his family.
