Jiang Yi returned to the private room, and He Gu was nowhere to be seen.
Upon seeing Jiang Yi come back, Yao Cheng immediately explained, "Jiang Yi, He Gu asked me to tell you that he had an emergency and had to leave first."
"He left?" Jiang Yi asked, surprised.
Yao Cheng nodded and continued, "He said something happened to his dad, and he's been rushed to the hospital. He didn't have time to tell you and had to leave first."
Upon hearing Yao Cheng's words, Jiang Yi's heartbeat quickened.
"Did he say anything about Uncle He's condition?" she asked.
Yao Cheng shook his head, "He didn't say, but he left in a real hurry."
Jiang Yi wanted to call He Gu to ask, but she hesitated.
Right at this critical moment, He Gu might not have even arrived at the hospital yet. Calling him might not only leave her without any answers but also add to his troubles.
Thinking this, Jiang Yi put down her phone.
Soon, Ye Shiyun also returned from the washroom.
