C53. Approval.

Chapter 53

When Hu Lin drove over, he remained silent for a long time. It had only been a few days, but his nephew who had been healthy and able to see the world was now suffering a relapse of his old illness.

Like the grieving and pained Xiao Han, there was no light in his eyes anymore.

Hu Lin wanted to say something, but his mouth wouldn't open. He could only silently come in front of Shen Minglou and pat his shoulder.

Hearing Shen Minglou obediently call him uncle, Hu Lin's worries increased. He forced a smile and tried to appear casual, saying, "Have you missed home during these days of absence? Your aunt wanted to come with me... but the food at home isn't ready yet. She and your uncle and grandparents are all waiting for you at home."

In truth, Xiao Tang knew that Shen Minglou couldn't help but cry every day due to his recurring eye condition. Xiao Wu, as Shen Minglou's uncle, also couldn't relax, constantly sighing at home.

Seemingly the most stable was the eldest Xiao Hexin, as her grandson's situation didn't seem to affect her emotionally. She went about her work at the hospital as usual.

Only in the late night, Hu Lin passing by the elder's room could hear the sound of weeping coming from within.

The dark clouds that had previously shrouded the Xiao family now seemed even darker.

If Shen Minglou couldn't be cured...

Hu Lin couldn't bear to imagine the atmosphere in the Xiao family at that time.

Shen Minglou nodded and a tear welled up in his eyes.

Hu Lin dared not look any longer, afraid he might lose control of his emotions as well. So, he followed Xiao Yue's pointed finger and saw Qin Zhichen standing beside him.

This was his first time seeing Qin Zhichen.

Qin Zhichen was tall, his face that often appeared in the media looked even sharper in reality. Perhaps because it wasn't a working hour, his ordinary attire added a touch of gentleness to him.

Seeing the dark circles under his eyes, Hu Lin knew he hadn't slept well either and sighed inwardly.

Hu Lin asked, "Is this your... friend?"

Shen Minglou replied, "Yes, he will accompany me to the hospital tomorrow..."

"Will you also come?" Hu Lin looked at Qin Zhichen and asked.

"I will stay by his side."

"Accompany him." Hu Lin sighed, "Well, then let's get in the car together."

Xiao Yue had already placed everything in the trunk of the car. Upon hearing this, he pointed to the car in front of him, nodded towards Qin Zhichen, and gestured for him to get in.

Since his father had spoken this way, it meant that the rest of the Xiao family also agreed for him to come back home with them.

Qin Zhichen nodded, said thank you, and wanted to help Hu Lin assist Shen Minglou into the car. However, Hu Lin did not allow him to help and instead called over Xiao Yue.

"Xiao Yue is here, that's good."

Hu Lin glanced at the front passenger seat and said, "You sit there. The back seats are for the two of them. It's more spacious back there, and he can sit comfortably."

"...Okay."

Qin Zhichen understood that Hu Lin had not fully accepted him yet. This visit to the Xiao family was not simple, and when Hu Lin agreed to let him in the car, he understood that his visit was to gain the approval of the Xiao family.
