Rich Young Mistress: Young Master Xie’s Dearest Beloved Wife
chapter-1647

Duan Xinya’s heart ached seeing him like that. She was just a few years older than her nephew but she had watched him grow up. That child had always been strong and resilient.

This was her first time seeing him so fragile, and it made her heart ache. It looked as though he had been abandoned by the entire world.

“Yanhao, Yaoyao will be fine. Don’t be too sad.” Duan Xinya sighed and gently patted his back.

Duan Yanhao shuddered but remained in that position.

“Yanhao, trust me. You and Yaoyao had been through so much to be together. Things will be fine this time too.”

Duan Yanhao still didn’t budge. Duan Xinya pulled his hand and to her surprise, she felt dampness on her hand. She finally realized. Was Yanhao… Crying?

Duan Xinya was in disbelief, and she had no idea how to respond.

She knew her nephew well. He never ever cried. She really couldn’t believe it.

Her lips trembled. She didn’t know how to console him, so she pulled his hand hard and said, “Yanhao, you’re a man. You can’t do this. Trust me, everything will be okay. Nothing bad will happen to her. She just fainted. When I was upset and passed out, I also woke up after a while. Yaoyao will be fine, okay? Listen to me.”

Duan Xinya tried hard to suppress her own emotions as she comforted Duan Yanhao.

Duan Yanhao seemed to agree with what his aunt had said, and he slowly raised his head.

When Duan Xinya saw Duan Yanhao’s reddened and damp eyes, she was shocked. Her heart ached as she caressed her nephew’s head. “Yanhao, why did you…” As she spoke, she couldn’t help but feel like crying too.

Her nephew had lost his parents since he was a child. He was still very young back then and had hidden in a corner with a toy in his hands. He didn’t make a big fuss at all.

But now, he…

Duan Xinya prayed deep down for Yanhao to never have to endure hardships again.

Yaoyao is the daughter-in-law of the Duan family, and no matter what, she’ll make sure that Yaoyao is safe.

After pulling up Duan Yanhao to his feet, Duan Xinya wiped away his tears. “Look at you, you’re all grown up now. Why are you still crying? Yaoyao will tease you when she wakes up.”

Duan Yanhao’s lips trembled and said, “Aunt, I’m afraid!”

Duan Xinya’s hands trembled. Hearing those words, she cried too. She knew she shouldn’t be crying, but seeing her nephew like that, she truly couldn’t help it. Her heart was aching terribly.

Yanhao had always been strong and outstanding, and she was the pride of the Duan family. No matter what he was going through, he had never said that he was afraid.

She knew how he felt. In order to help the northern troops and Yanhao, Yaoyao had risked her life multiple times. It was only luck that she was still alive.

She understood why Yanhao was afraid.

“Yanhao, don’t be scared. She just passed out.”

“Aunt, she collapsed head-on onto the floor. She hurt her head.”

Duan Xinya’s face turned pale. She knew that if Yaoyao had landed on the back of her head, it would be very dangerous. She hoped that Yaoyao hadn’t injured her head.

Duan Yanhao looked intently into Duan Xinya’s eyes. His voice cracked as he asked, “Aunt, it’ll be fine, right?”

Duan Xinya bit her lower lip and nodded. “Yes, Yaoyao is a nice lady. She’ll be fine.”

Duan Yanhao didn’t answer her and stared straight at the emergency room door without blinking. He didn’t want to miss the moment the doors opened.
