One Birth Two Treasures: The Billionaire's Sweet Love

Chapter 2425: Take care, sis!

Comfortably lying sprawled on the bed, Little Yichen gazed up at the ceiling and said, "Actually, I feel that mommy doesn't need to know anything too in-depth. All she needs to know is that we, be it uncle, daddy, you, or me, are all very dependable people."

His little brother joined him on the bed, spread his arms and legs wide, then stared above, too.

"Mommy needs to be carefully protected since she's so stupid."

Hearing that, he turned his head to exchange a smile with his twin before suddenly commenting, "If possible, I really wanna build a castle and keep mommy in there so that no one can bully her."

"There's no need to build a castle specifically." Youyou then proudly added after a beat, "We're her castle!"

"Hmph! You can be the castle, while I'll be her knight, protecting her at all times no matter where she goes!"

"…"

Inwardly, the younger boy muttered disgruntledly, What a wet blanket!

…

Meanwhile, Yun Shishi was having a restless sleep that night, for she could not stop thinking about her brother's affairs, her adoptive father's trip to the Gong family, and the extent of the elderly man's recovery.

Will he ever be able to speak again?

Many of his important neural functions were destroyed.

All I hope is that he doesn't suffer too much pain.

The next day.

The vehicle, which her brother had specially arranged for, had already arrived at by the time the woman reached the hospital with her husband.

She noticed upon her arrival that he was wearing his usual ensemble—a white military-style coat and a pair of matching, white army boots—which made him look ever so tall and fair from afar. The only difference was that his silvery hair now had a tinge of black at its roots.

The young commander greeted her with a smile and a tight embrace.

"My leave has ended, sis."

Since his vacation was over, he would be flying straight back to North America, where he would be busy with a string of works after he settled Yun Yecheng at his family-owned medical center for treatment.

Having enjoyed his companionship thoroughly this new year, feelings of reluctance sprouted in the woman as she hugged him, for she did not know when the next time that they would be meeting after today was.

Soon, Yun Yecheng was lifted into the vehicle.

The married couple got on board as well to send the elderly man and Gong Jie off at the airport.

The vehicle then set off for Messelin Private Airport, where the private plane and medical team were already awaiting their arrival.

Just before her father was put on the plane, Yun Shishi held back her tears as she leaned against the sickbed and whispered an encouragement to him. "I'll wait for your return, dad!"

He gazed back at her, looking equally reluctant to part. The most heart-wrenching thing was that he could not even mumble a goodbye to her because of his inability to speak.

The elderly man was worried about his adopted daughter's safety.

If he could move his hands, he would pen down all his warnings and cautions to her on paper. Alas, he was as good as a cripple right now. He could do nothing but look at her with tears in his eyes.

"Don't worry; Xiao Jie surely has a way to treat you!" reassured his daughter as she stared into his eyes. "I'll wait for your return!"

Tears streamed down his face as his daughter moved away from him to let the medical team take him on board.

Gong Jie was about to board the plane as well when he halted in his tracks and turned around to look at his sister.

The wind at the airport was so strong that his hair was getting all messed up.

Walking briskly to her, he took her in his arms and wrapped her tightly in his embrace as he frowned in reluctance.

"Take care, sis."

"Mm! You, too!"
