"Alright, let us know if there's anything." Second Uncle Gu hesitated before nodding. They knew they couldn't be of much help here.
News of Gu Chengrui's condition spread quickly.
Mingyu, the sons of King An and King Xian, and several friendly officials arrived to offer support.
Despite her exhaustion, Zhou Ying received them and had Gu Chengxi explain the situation.
The princes briefly visited Gu Chengrui before departing with worried expressions.
Alone again, Zhou Ying reached for water when Guoguo and Chenchen entered. "Mommy, is Daddy alright?" Guoguo asked, her voice laced with worry.
"He's just very tired, sweetheart," Zhou Ying reassured her with a forced smile.
"Can I see him?" Chenchen chimed in.
Zhou Ying nodded, and Guoguo led him to the bedroom.
