The next day Bai Zhenzhen was so worried with all that was happening that it affected her performance she had quite a few NGs that even Director Ma that was familiar with her Acting knew something was wrong.
It was out of character for her to have this much NGs. Bai Zhenzhen was a very talented actress she usually shot euch scene without any retakes but today she had made even a Rockie mistake.
Something was up, Director Ma gave her a short break to clear her head and shot other scenes.
She hadn't received any news from Jianyu so she was worried. That was understandable His plane must not have landed in C nation.
She had tried calling mother and grandmother on the phone but they had been no answers at all. She had grown so worried within the space of hours.
Has thing gotten much more serious, has father's condition too a dive for the worse the wait had her imagining the worse.
She didn't like that she wasn't there with the family to be with them in this time of need. Zhou Jianyu had been right she had to stay and complete her scenes and complete them she would.
After an hour's rest she got her Emotions under control and returned back into the studio to shoot her scenes.
After a long hours flight the plane landed and Zhou Jianyu got down bc and walked through the special exit to meet his assistant Xiaobo who was waiting to drive him to the hospital.
"Welcome back boss" Xiaobo said collecting of his luggage.
"How is father's condition? He asked in a low tone.
"Their are no new improvements the president is now out of critical conditions but he is in a comma" Xiaobo replied.
"How is my mother and grandmother taking everything? He asked.
"not well they have been in the hospital with him for a while" Xiaobo replied.
"Let's get going then" he said with a slight frown.
His grandmother was much older it wasn't good for her to be this worried. He already suspected that like his mother she must not have gotten any rest.
He had to get to the hospital and relieve them of their vigil They needed to get some rest. He had already spoken with Suyin she would be flying in by the end of today.
He was in good terms with his father but that didn't change the fact that he was his father and he cared about his well being. He doesn't wish him to die not like this.
After a forty minutes drive they arrived at B city's first citizens Hospital and went up to the VIP ward where he father was.
When he arrived at the ward he was impressed at how tight security was. That was good the last thing he need right now was for the press to get wind of this.
They had managed to keep it under the wraps so far but it's only a matter of time before it becomes public knowledge but before that he would put some precautions in place to reduce the effects on their share prices
When he walked into the room his mother and grandmother both looked worn out. They both looked like they had aged a few years in just a day.
They were both seated on the couch at both sides of the hospital bed. It was his mother that first saw him walk in
"Jianyu your back, how are you doing! How is Zhenzhen? She asked standing and rushing up to him.
"I'm fine how are you doing mother? he asked looking at her up close she seemed so fragile like even the wind could carry her away.
His mother loved his father very much she was always so proud to tell everyone and anyone how they met. He was her first and only love. He couldn't imagine how it felt to see him this way.
"I am good just holding up. it's good that you are back. how is Zhenzhen" she said
"Zhenzhen is good she still has some scenes she would be back soon" he replied.
"that's good I feel much better now that I know that you have made up and is getting along much better" Zhou Mei said.
How is he" He said walking forward and standing by the side of the bed.
"The doctor said that he had a mild heart attack and his lungs aren't looking good but he now stable he would wake up soon" Zhou Mei replied returning to her position next to bed and taking his hands in hers.
"Grandmother please go home and get some rest. You have been her for almost two days You need to go back home, get some rest and get refreshed dad wouldn't want to see you this way. You too mum, you should both go home and get some rest.
This isn't good for your health. You can come back later after getting some rest. I will keep watch while you all rest" He said
"There's no need for that you just came back from a long hours flight You must be tired. You should be resting right now. You go home and get some rest your mother and I will stay and keep your father company" His grandmother said.
"You don't need to worry about that grandma, I slept on the plane. You and mum should go back home and get some rest I will let you know if there is any change" he replied.
"Oh okay let's do that. Don't work yourself down let us know when you get tired we'll come back and relieve you of the watch" His grandmother said.
"Yes grandma I will make sure I do that" He replied.
Feeling more reassured His grandmother and mother left the Hospital and returned back home.
Zhou Jianyu stay back and kept his father company two hours later the doctor and Nurse came in for a check up after ensuring that everything was good they left.
After the Doctor left Zhou Jianyu picked up the phone and after checking the time dialed Bai Zhenzhen's phone number. It should be morning in Switzerland by now.
He had delibrately delayed calling her when his flight had arrived in China so as not to disturb her sleep. His flight arrived at 3am Switzerland time.
Even though her filming schedule was more flexible as they were filming on Switzerland filming standards. She still needed a few hour more of sleep.
"Hello" She said in a low tone.
"You sound tired Zhenzhen hope I didn't wake you" he said.
"Jianyu? You must now be back in C Nation" She said.
"Yes I am I got back not too long ago" he said.
"How is everything, how is dad doing now? she asked
"much better had a mild heart attack. His still unconciois but the doctor assured us that his is getting much better and will wake up soon" he replied
"That's good. How is grandmother and mother.... how are they holding up" she said.
"They are good. I sent them back home to get some rest. They have been keeping watch since dad collapsed" He replied
"wow they really need to rest. Have you eaten anything since you arrived. Your stomach isn't good so you have to make sure you get something to eat okay" she said.
"I will eat something don't worry. Mum will most definitely send a maid over with some food any time from now" he replied.
"Okay I can now relax. it's really good to hear your voice, I was worried when you didn't call sooner. I almost called Xiaobo to find out if anything came up with your flight. I was beginning to think the worse had happened" She said.
"Sorry for making you worried I got back late in the night at least Switzerland time. I didn't want to disturb your sleep so I waited until now" He said.
"that's very sweet of you. Jianyu I really miss you, I had no idea how much until now. You take good care of yourself okay" She said
"I will and I miss you too" He replied.
"I wish I could be there with you, I hate we apart at a time like this"
"Me too but not for long you're nearly done filming, soon you will be back here but for the meantime I will make sure to keep you updated on everything"
"You had better, wow I have to get ready for filming. Talk to you later love you"
"Yeah love you too" he replied.
Some minutes later a maid came over with food. As expected his mother had sent her over and to ensure that he ate the meal she had the maid stay back until he was done.
He was halfway through his meal when there was an unexpected disturbance at the door.
"I'm sorry Miss no one is allowed in apart from family. Please don't make this difficult for us" one of the bodyguards at the door said
"Family? I'm Family what do you think you are doing let me in. I have as much right to be here as everyone else"
'Please go back Miss don't cause a scene" the same bodyguard said.
"Cause a scene? wow how surprising how could I cause a scene I am just trying to take my son to visit his grandfather" She said exasperated.
"I can let you in without clearance from the family please leave here Miss"the bodyguard said.
"What you can't do this LET ME IN" she said loudly.
"Miss please go bac_" The bodyguard was saying when a gentle male voice said from behind him
"Why the noise?
"Young Master this lady refuses to leave even when we tell her that no one is allowed in without clearance from you" the bodyguard replied.
"Oh.... Su Lixue what are you doing here? He asked after walking forward to see none other than the mistake from his youth Su Lixue holding onto a little boy's hands. This must be her and Ye Mingzhe's son.
"Jianyu your back finally,I heard about uncle's health condition so I came over to pay him a visit" Su Lixue said smiling sweetly.
"and the boy why is he here? he spat out angrily
"Oh I brought him over to visit his grandfather" She replied.
"You and I both know that he is not my son so cut the crap why are you really here? he said.
"Jianyu do you really want to do this here right in front of an audience.....let's go in and talk privately" Su Lixue said.
"I have nothing to say to you I thought I made myself clear a long time ago. If there is nothing else please leave" he said indifferently. "Please escort Miss Su and her son out this should be the first and last time I see her here" he instructed and walked back inside.
"What are you doing.....let me go. Jianyu you can't do this to me. Jianyu..... Jianyu" she cried as she and her son was led out.
By the time he had gotten back inside the hospital room he had lost his appetite so he closed up the food and sent the maid back.
Back at Ouyang residence forty minutes later.
The maid that had been sent to the hospital got back in and was about going into the kitchen when Zhou Mei called her over.
"Your back early did XiaoYu finish the food? Zhou Mei asked.
"No madam he only ate half of the meal" the maid replied.
"Why was the food not to his liking" Zhou Mei said surprised.
"No madam midway through the meal there was a disturbance at the door by Miss Su" the maid replied. She had worked at Ouyang residence for five years now she was already quite familiar with Su Lixue.
"Oh well that's enough you may leave" Zhou Mei said dismissing the maid.
"Yes madam" the maid said and walked away.
She really had to speak with Mrs Su about her daughter, Su Lixue's antics was beginning to get out of hand. it was hight time her wings were clipped for their own good and hers before things got messy.
