“Doctor Zhao, bad news! The patient has lost consciousness again!”

“The patient’s heart is dropping rapidly!”

“Prepare for emergency treatment!”

“Cough!”

After Ling Sheng let out a cough, she spat out a mouthful of water. She opened her eyes slowly and saw the man in front of her, whose eyes were red as he looked at her. Before she could say ‘Third Master’, she was suddenly embraced tightly by him.

The man was very strong, and his grip hurt a little. It was as though he wanted to melt her into his blood and bones. His chin was propped on her shoulder, trembling.

Ling Sheng could clearly feel warm liquid flowing into her neck. There was a raw, salty taste filling her throat, and her chest felt uncomfortably choked up. Her eyes felt sore and swollen, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Jun Shiyan hugged the little woman in his embrace tightly. His arms tightened bit by bit, as though he truly wanted to melt her into his flesh and blood like this.

He was scared.

No one knew how terrified he had felt just now!

He could not wake her up at all.

“Third Master,” Ling Sheng’s voice was frighteningly hoarse. After calling out to him, she choked and could not speak anymore. Fear filled her heart bit by bit.

She did not know how long more she could last.

She saw the doctor and the nurse.

She knew very well that she had temporarily returned to her original world.

However, his calls, his anxiety, his despair, and his pain seemed to have been engraved in her mind. Lying on the hospital bed, the deep sorrow she felt was worse than death.

She did not want to go back. She did not want to go back to that world anymore. Her lover, her family, and her friends were all here!

“It’s all right now.” Jun Shiyan’s voice was hoarse and obscure. He did not know if he was comforting her or himself. Only when she was in his embrace could he feel her presence.

In that instant, she had stopped breathing and her heart had stopped beating. It was as though… she was leaving him.

Huo Ci had rushed over after receiving the news. He did not dare tell the elders at home, nor did he dare bring Xiaoqi over. When he rushed over, he saw Jun Shiyan hugging his brat and crying.

Yes!

He was crying!

That scumbag Third Old Jun crying!

Instantly, his emotions were complicated. He felt as though his inherent understanding had been overturned.

He did not even know if he should be worried about his stinky brat or laugh at Third Master Jun. Or should he just take his phone and record a video of him?

However, when he saw that the brat had already woken up and looked fine, he finally felt relieved.

Su Jing had run over in a hurry to report that someone had fallen into the lake. They had all fallen into the lake. First, Yan’er had fallen in. Next, that stinky brat had jumped in. Then, Ah Zhou had jumped in. Even Third Master Jun also jumped in! One after another, like they were dumplings!

For the first time, Huo Xuanzhou understood anxiety and knew what heartache felt like. This was a mystical experience he had never had before. He hugged the woman in his arms and wrapped her tightly in his coat.

Su Yan’s body was trembling from the cold, and her eyes were frighteningly red and swollen. Upon seeing that Ling Sheng had finally woken up, the tense string in her body snapped. Her vision darkened and she lost consciousness.

“Su Yan!” Huo Xuanzhou’s face turned pale instantly. Without caring about anyone else, he picked her up and left. “Call the doctor! Hurry up and find a doctor!”

Upon seeing Huo Xuanzhou carry Su Yan away, Huo Ci frowned and his eyes darkened. He took a look at the couple who were still hugging together and crying in front of him. His voice carried some doubt, but his tone softened a lot. “Let’s go back to the house to get changed. Third Master Jun, you can freeze on your own if you want to freeze to death, but do you want to freeze her to death too?”

He really wanted to kick this scumbag Third Old Jun away and carry her away himself. However, at that moment, he actually hesitated.

If he snatched her away, what would happen if this scumbag Third Old Jun cried because of him? He found it unbelievable just watching him and even felt a little scared.

Jun Shiyan took two coats and wrapped Ling Sheng up completely. When he got up, he had already returned to normal with a dignified bearing, but his eyes were still a little red. He nodded slightly at Huo Ci and carried her away.

Huo Ci had already heard what had happened from that child, Su Jing. He could not scold them indiscriminately either. However, he just did not know what that brat had been thinking! If Yan Er had fallen, wouldn’t it be fine for Ah Zhou alone to go down to save her? Why had she joined in the mess?

Moreover, by a strange coincidence, this had happened three times already. She was obviously a good swimmer, but she had gotten into trouble in the water three times in a row. It was as though she would have an accident the moment she touched water.

Since Huo Ci could think of it, Jun Shiyan naturally could too. Looking at the young lady in his embrace, his eyes darkened. Inside his heart, he decided that he would never let her touch water again in the future.

The old folks at home did not know that Ling Sheng and Su Yan had fallen into the water. They huddled under their quilts for a long time before they gradually warmed up.

Jun Shiyan came over with a glass of Chinese cold remedy medication that had just been dissolved in water. When he saw the young lady curled up into a ball, his heart softened at how soft and cute she looked. His eyes were full of doting affection as he asked gently, “Can you drink the medicine first?”

Huo Ci was sitting by the side. How could he allow them, a man and a woman, to be alone in a room? Upon hearing his voice, his brows furrowed even more.

When had this scumbag Third Old Jun become so sappy? Why did he have to coax her like a child just to drink some medicine? How old was she already? Wasn’t he embarrassed?

Also, did the two of them think he was dead?! Were they showing off their affection in front of him? Or were they courting death?!

He wanted to interrupt, but when he thought of the scene of scumbag Third Old Jun crying, a complex and uncomfortable feeling covered him from head to toe.

Ling Sheng’s big eyes peeked out of the quilt. Before she could speak, she felt a rush of warmth in her lower body. Warm liquid flowed out, and there was a faint cramp in her lower abdomen. Her small face flushed instantly as she looked at the man’s handsome face and asked in a small voice, “Third Master, can you call Grandma over?”

Upon seeing the young lady’s strangely red face, Jun Shiyan hurriedly reached out to feel her forehead. When he had just taken her temperature, she had not had a fever. His eyes were full of heartache. “Do you feel unwell?”

Ling Sheng let out a low cough and shook her head, finding it difficult to mention about it. Her period had suddenly come, so the bed sheets should have been stained by her. She needed to use a sanitary pad now.

“Father-in-law said that Grandpa and Grandma would be worried if they found out, so he didn’t intend to tell them.” Jun Shiyan looked at the young lady, who had a complicated expression on her face and was hesitant to speak. He said gently, “Tell me if you need anything.”

This was the first time Huo Ci had seen her act so bashful. He frowned. “What are you up to again? You rushed to jump into the water and ended up in this state. Do you want your grandparents to worry too?”

Ling Sheng shook her head hurriedly with an aggrieved expression. She definitely did not want her grandparents to worry. She sniffled and continued to negotiate. “Then, you can call Grand-aunt or Sister-in-law over. Anyway, just call a woman over!”

Huo Ci gave her a sideways look. When he saw the brat’s pale face, his heart ached inexplicably. He could not bear to scold her anymore, so he only asked, “What do you want to do? What do you want to trouble others with that it has to be a woman? Are two men like us unable to serve you?”

Ling Sheng bit her lips, so depressed that her little claws were scratching the bed sheet. She decided to go all out. Anyway, one was her man and the other was her father. What kind of face did she need? She shouted, “My period[1] is here!”

Huo Ci asked subconsciously, “Who’s your great-aunt?”

[1] The term 大姨妈 can also represent ‘Great-aunt’.
