"My dad."
"Hmm?"
"My father was hospitalized. If it wasn't for his lawyer, I wouldn't have known about this. He might… might not have much time left…"
As Li Ruochu spoke, tears began to roll down her cheeks and onto his hands.
Helian Qingyu was touched by her tears and his heart felt heavy. He took back his hand and handed her a handkerchief.
"Thank you!"
Li Ruochu took it and wiped her tears.
Helian Qingyu looked at her quietly. Even though he felt that what she said was a little ridiculous and made people think that she was making up an excuse, he still believed her for some reason.
"What are your plans?"
"I want to visit him at the hospital tomorrow. It was too rushed today. I didn't prepare anything…"
"Mm."
"If necessary, I might have to return to the Li family."
"Mm."
Helian Qingyu nodded and agreed.
Li Ruochu was surprised. He was so easy going today.
