Chapter 891: They Looked Back
Aunt Li and Little Lian also seemed confused.
What was this about?
They looked out at the entrance but could not find the others. They frowned. This seemed a little odd.
The three women exchanged glances. Just when Liu Duo decided to go up and ask, Ye Mo was already stomping his way downstairs.
“Mo, what exactly is going on? Where’s Liuzi, Ling, and Brother Li?” she asked when she got the chance.
“It’s nothing. Wife, you just wait at home, alright? We’ll be back soon!”
That was all Ye Mo said before disappearing through the door.
Hei Xiaomeng ran out after him.
“Aunt Li, I’m going to take a look.” Liu Duo could not help but worry as she prepared to step out.
Aunt Li called to her, “Steady, girl. I’ll go with you.”
She turned to instruct Little Lian. “Lian Er, stay here with Little Huzi. We’ll hurry back.”
They could not all go together. Someone had to stay behind. Furthermore, Little Lian could not be carrying Little Huzi the whole way.
“Alright. Mother, take care of Sister Duo. Make sure she doesn’t fall,” Little Lian nodded obediently.
Liu Duo and Aunt Li went out the door and headed towards the intersection.
Whenever Liu Duo wanted to run or walk too fast, Aunt Li would remind her to slow down and even nag her about her pregnancy.
Just when Liu Duo could not take it anymore and decided to speed up, she saw several figures ahead.
“Ling, what happened to you?”
She found Ye Ling sitting on the ground. His companions stood around him, looking worried. She began to worry too.
At that moment, she picked up her dress and ran.
“Slow down, girl! Don’t run! Remember, your pregnancy!” Aunt Li ran after her.
The men looked back when they heard sounds.
Ye Ling urged himself to get up to meet his wife, but his brothers were quicker than him.
In unison, one helped Ye Ling up but stopped him from stepping forward while the other went ahead to meet Liu Duo.
“Ling, don’t move. You’ve just taken your medicine. Don’t tire yourself.”
“Slow down, dear. Ling’s alright.”
“What exactly’s happening here? How did Ling become like this?” Liu Duo glared at Ye Ling while demanding answers from Ye Mo.
She did not understand it. Ling was perfectly well just a moment ago. He went to check on his brothers’ return. How had he suddenly gotten so sickly?
He was obviously falling ill!
Right then, Liu Duo assumed that the reason Ye Mo rushed home just now was to retrieve Ye Ling’s medicine, and that was why he rushed out again.
“Dear wife, please talk to him. Tell him not to overthink or sulk. We can talk about things at home!”
Liu Duo had so many questions but she decided to delay asking them after listening to Ye Mo.
She approached Ye Ling and held his hand. She said to him, very much concerned, “Ling, how do you feel now? Do you feel better?”
It only occurred to her when she got nearer that Ye Ling looked horribly pale. Even his lips were drained of color.
“I’m f-fine, Duo Er. Don’t worry.” Ye Ling forced a smile.
He did not intend to make his wife worry, but he fainted right after saying that.
Instantly, everyone else was drenched in cold sweat!
“Ling!”
