Rose sat there, absent-minded. Her soul seemed to flow out of the body. She was dumbfounded.
Until she heard footsteps, she wiped the teardrops on the corners of her eyes and reclined on the couch again.
Bright pushed the door open and stepped to the couch, seeing Rose sleeping sideways and inward.
He bent down and reached out to push her hair on her forehead and face back, and lowered his head to kiss her on the corner of her eye.
Rose's eyelashes moved. She slowly turned her head, opened her clear eyes, and met his gaze.
"You awake?" Bright smiled and looked at her angelic face.
Rose nodded.
"Are you hungry? I'll go get you some food."
She hadn't eaten anything since this morning when she heard the news that Wilfred fainted.
Now that she had slept for some time, she might already be hungry.
Bright was about to get up. But Rose reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, lowered Bright's head, and then kissed him.
Bright didn't expect Rose to do this. He was slightly shocked, but calmly accepted her kiss.
He gently embraced her. They leaned close to each other and unrestrainedly kissed, as if only she and he were left in the world.
In contrast to Bright's gentleness, Rose seemed a bit impatient. She did not let go of Bright until she could hardly breathe. When her lips and tongue were a bit numb, she let go of him.
Her hands still gripped his shirt collar. She lingeringly rested her forehead against his, not wanting to let him go.
Bright sat down obediently. Rose took the opportunity to worm her way into his arms, snuggling up to him like a cat.
"What's wrong?" Bright felt that something was wrong with Rose.
She had never been so restless, sad, and devoted as she was today.
"Nothing. I just miss you."
"I'm right here."
" I still miss you though."
"Naughty girl." Bright lightly pinched her cheeks, "Is there something you're hiding from me? Or did you do something wrong? You are so nice now."
"Can't I be nice?" Rose fiddled with his long and slender fingers.
Bright felt that Rose was a little strange after waking up. He did not know what was wrong, but felt that she was a bit different.
He reached out and touched Rose's forehead, "Are you sure you're okay?"
"Of course I am." Rose slapped away his large palm on her forehead and got up, "I'm going to see if Grandpa's awake."
"Grandpa just woke up. I came to ask you to go see him. But I didn't expect Mrs. Lee to be so enthusiastic and gave me a passionate kiss today." Bright was a bit surprised, "I strongly call for such a benefit every day."
"Dream on." Rose stood up.
"You are indeed beautiful." Bright made a gesture with his hands to Rose's slim figure.
Rose blushed quietly, glared at him, and went to Wilfred's ward.
She walked to Wilfred's bed. Seeing the much thinner Wilfred and thinking of what Wilfred had just said, she couldn't hold back the sad emotions inside.
"Rose, come here. Let me take a good look at you." Grandpa tapped the edge of the bed.
"Grandpa." When she called out to Grandpa, Rose's eyes were red.
"Why are you crying?" Wilfred coaxed her, "It's my fault for making you worry again."
"Grandpa, tell me a story about my childhood...."
"Grandpa...."
Rose turned the sadness and reluctance in her heart into motivation, cherishing every minute she spent with Wilfred, hoping that she could make Wilfred happy every day in these last days.
She felt that she could only do so much. She must do it.
Joy came to the hospital the next day, did not see Wilfred, and only stayed for an hour and left.
She came to the hospital on the third day again when Wilfred was discharged. Wilfred finally saw Joy before he left and said to her, "Joy, don't visit me anymore. Just live the life you want."
"Dad…."
"Go back."
Wilfred got in the special car that Bright had prepared to the airport and took the Lee family's private plane back to City Y.
There was a professional medical team on board in case of emergency.
In addition to the doctor, Bill was also there. He arranged everything for Bright.
The offer was so good.
Wilfred could lie down on the plane, so that he wouldn't be too tired.
The whole trip was very nice. After arriving at the airport in City Y, they had lunch and moved, and then took a special car to the hometown.
Not only was Wilfred not tired, but he was in good spirits and very happy on the way.
The closer they got to home, the brighter the smile on Wilfred's face.
He would talk something about the familiar sights when he saw them, while Rose and Bright would listen to him attentively.
