I also found it strange, but what was even stranger was yet to come.
Just now, Zhuo Feng had called Su Qian to confirm that he was indeed not involved. Whether it was sent out or deleted, he had no idea and didn't plan to care.
Meanwhile, Xiao Minxing's call came through to my mobile phone.
However, it wasn't him speaking, but Lu Yi Heng.
As I wondered why he was using Xiao Minxing's phone to call me, I heard him say first, "Come over here as soon as possible."
"What’s going on?" I hurriedly asked.
Lu Yi Heng replied from the other end, "We'll talk when you get here."
Before I could hang up, Mina had already finished packing her things and was holding her car keys, saying, "Let's go, I'll go with you."
Zhuo Feng followed us out, walking beside Mina: "I'll go with you too; I'm a good driver."
Mina didn't even turn her head, walking ahead while replying, "Right, you're the old driver in the company."
Zhuo Feng immediately laughed heartily: "You know that?"
I couldn't help but look at their faces; they were wearing the same smile. Although they were bickering, it somehow felt harmonious. I could tell that Zhuo Feng almost always yielded to Mina. I wondered how they maintained their serious boss-employee identities in front of other staff members.
The few of us came down from upstairs and headed straight to the underground parking lot.
Zhuo Feng's car was a Cadillac, a business vehicle with a very spacious interior. After Mina and I got into the back seat, the car drove out of the garage and headed towards Lu Yi Heng's hospital as I directed.
On the way, Mina asked me, "Have I missed something during this time?"
I didn't understand her meaning and turned to look at her.
Mina was also looking at me, asking in a low voice, "When did you get so close with the Lu siblings? I found it strange when he came to my house last time, but I just didn't have the chance to ask you."
I quickly explained, "I'm not close to him; he's just a friend of Xiao Minxing. I guess he called me over for that reason."
"That's not right; he shouldn't just be a friend of Xiao Zong," Mina shook her head.
I didn't feel anything was off and was about to ask again when Zhuo Feng interjected, "You'll find out when you meet him later. You two shouldn't waste your energy guessing here."
Zhuo Feng's company was far from the hospital where Lu Yi Heng worked. Even if there was no traffic at this time, it took us about forty minutes to get there.
During this time, I had calmed down from the initial chaos and slowly began to recall his phone call.
He called from Xiao Minxing's mobile phone and urged me to come quickly. Did something happen to Xiao Minxing?
Could it be that he had another episode? But why? When I saw him yesterday, things looked quite bad, but Lu Yi Heng also said he was just an internist and couldn't treat such conditions. So why did he bring Xiao Minxing here?
The car stopped in front of the hospital. Mina wanted to go up with me, but Zhuo Feng stopped her first and turned to me, saying, "Anan, you go up first. Mina and I will wait downstairs. If anything happens, just call us."
Mina frowned at him, her lips moved, but she only said, "If you're not down in half an hour, I'll come find you. It's fine."
They probably wanted me to resolve the issue with Xiao Minxing on my own.
I understood their intentions, but as I walked toward Lu Yi Heng's office, I still felt anxious, and my previously stable emotions began to unravel again.
He wasn't in the office; even the door was closed.
Standing in the hallway, I tried calling him, but no one answered, and the ringtone echoed from his office.
Helpless, I could only call Xiao Minxing.
Lu Yi Heng's voice quickly came through: "Are you there? Go to the tenth floor, Psychiatry Room 3."
Hearing the word "Psychiatry," I panicked and ran towards the elevator without hanging up the phone, but for some reason, the elevator took a long time to arrive.
Impatiently waiting, I turned and headed for the emergency stairs.
Lu Yi Heng's office is on the third floor, and I needed to get to the tenth floor. Climbing seven floors felt nearly impossible for me at that moment.
When I finally saw the sign for the tenth floor, my legs were so sore that I could barely move, but I couldn't afford to stop for even a moment.
I knew Xiao Minxing was really sick. At this point, I didn't want to question why; I just wanted to see him as soon as possible, even if it was just a quick glance.
Room 3 was at the end of the corridor, but I was stopped by a nurse as soon as I reached the entrance.
I hurriedly tried to explain myself, but it was no use until Lu Yi Heng came out from inside.
He wasn't wearing a doctor's coat; instead, he had on a light blue jacket and white trousers, looking fresh and clean. However, this outfit made me think of his sister at first glance.
The preferences of these siblings are quite peculiar; one likes green while the other prefers blue, and they seem to have an obsession with their colors.
Such people are actually rare in life.
Lu Yi Heng walked ahead of me, a step or two faster, but he didn't leave me behind. His footsteps were light and almost silent.
In contrast to him, I appeared anxious and flustered, panting slightly and dragging my feet a bit.
Entering through the door blocked by the nurse revealed a large open space. The decor and furnishings inside were quite comfortable and very quiet.
We passed through this space and saw a house with three sides made of glass, the door was also open.
Xiao Minxing was sitting inside, facing away from us, so we couldn't see his expression or complexion; he only had his head slightly lowered.
Across from him sat a woman, who was quietly and seriously saying something to him, but Xiao Minxing did not lift his head or even glance at her.
Lu Yi Heng stopped outside, and I stood beside him, trying hard to hold my breath so as not to disturb the two people inside.
After a long time, the woman finally stood up, poured a glass of water for Xiao Minxing, placed it in front of him, and then walked over to us.
I didn’t even know why I instinctively took a step back.
Lu Yi Heng turned his head to look at me; for the first time, his gaze had a sharpness similar to Xiao Minxing's. Although he quickly concealed it, I still felt it, and my palms began to sweat.
The woman reached the entrance and merely glanced at me with her eyes before signaling for us to follow her into a nearby office.
Throughout this time, Xiao Minxing had not turned his head at all; he maintained that posture as if he were nailed in place.
The glass of water on the table in front of him was emitting a bit of steam, becoming the only movement in the entire room.
As soon as I entered the room, I asked the female doctor, "How is he?"
Her expression was calm, like that of all doctors who have seen many serious illnesses. She replied, "He is temporarily stable, but overall the situation is not good."
