In the hospital room, Jiang Muwan had fallen asleep on Gu Jiangnian's shoulder. He had just gently placed her on the hospital bed with Lan Ying's help, his movements tender to an almost ludicrous extent.
As soon as he let go, she woke up.
Jiang Muwan looked at Gu Jiangnian with bleary eyes, her slender fingers clutching his shirt collar and not letting go. She asked with a hoarse voice, "Where are you going?"
The man bent down and kissed her lips, his tone gentle, "Sleep. I'm going to ask the doctor about your condition."
"Will you come back?" Muwan looked up at Gu Jiangnian with an air of grievance, and if one listened closely, they could detect the caution in her voice.
Gu Jiangnian bent down and kissed her again, his heart aching, but he still managed to tease with a faint smile, "Of course, I'll come back. Otherwise, Manman would become an orphan, wouldn't she?"
