At this moment, Song Yan heard his stomach growl.

It was only then that he remembered that because he was busy inquiring about Xia Lin's whereabouts, he forgot to eat lunch, and now it was past dinner time.

He stood up and went to the refrigerator to find something to eat, but the moment he opened the refrigerator, he suddenly remembered that Xia Lin had affixed labels all over the refrigerator before, and then he threw them all into the wastebasket.

With guilt towards Xia Lin, he walked to the wastebasket and squatted down. He came to pick up the sticky notes one by one.

Looking at the familiar handwriting on the note, he seemed to see Xia Lin's obsessive-compulsive disorder-like methodical behavior again. Song Yan used to be disgusted with him, but now he somehow misses it.

When picking up the last note, Song Yan found a crumpled paper ball lying at the bottom of the wastepaper basket. Judging by the texture of the paper, it looked like some kind of official document.

He picked up the paper ball suspiciously, opened it, and found that it was a hospital diagnosis certificate about Xia Lin.

"Intracranial tumor... advanced?" He read the bolded text, his eyes widening in disbelief.

In the past few days, Xia Lin has been in a comatose state most of the time.

When he opened his eyes again, looking at the dim light outside the window, he couldn't remember where he was for a long time.

A familiar voice came from outside the door: "Second Young Master, are you awake?"

He remembered that this was Zhou Shuo's single apartment.

Zhou Shuo was one year younger than him. He used to be one of his bodyguards, and he was also the one who had been with him the longest.

When he was studying at school, Zhou Shuo was often ordered to be by his side to protect him, and the two had a pretty good relationship.

Later, he broke with the family for Song Yan's sake. In a rage, his father cut off all his financial resources, and also removed all the bodyguards around him. Only Zhou Shuo still secretly protected him because of his grandma's secret order.

It can be said that Zhou Shuo is the only person Xia Lin trusts unconditionally in this world.

Xia Lin wanted to speak, but what came out was a hoarse cough. This cough gave him a splitting headache.

Zhou Shuo opened the door, poured a glass of water for Xia Lin skillfully, and then handed him a few pills.

Xia Lin swallowed the pills, and after a while, the headache gradually subsided.

He looked up at Zhou Shuo and asked, "How long have I slept?

Zhou Shuo looked at his watch: "After returning from Lawyer Zhang, you slept for another ten hours."

Xia Lin thought silently, the longer and longer the time of lethargy means that he has less and less time left.

Zhou Shuo added: "It may be that Lawyer Zhang told the eldest young master about the transfer of your shares. In the afternoon, the eldest young master called and asked about your whereabouts."

"What did you say?"

I said I didn't know, and he didn't ask any further. "

Xia Lin nodded.

It was a secret arrangement made by his late grandmother to let Zhou Shuo protect him in secret, even Xia Liang didn't know about it. Xia Liang would call and ask Zhou Shuo, probably just casually.

"On my brother's side, you must not reveal your tone," Xia Lin urged, "I suddenly transfer all the shares to him, which will definitely make him uneasy. Next, he will definitely increase his efforts to find my whereabouts, you We must guard against death.”

Zhou Shuo frowned: "Second Young Master, your body is already like this, don't you want to see the Eldest Young Master for the last time?"

Xia Lin shook his head: "My brother is very stubborn. If he knew that I was sick, he would definitely force me to go to the hospital for treatment..."

"There may be a silver lining to going to the hospital..."

Xia Lin smiled bitterly: "Look at me like this, there are only a few days left, why bother... The last few days, I just want to spend it quietly."

Zhou Shuo turned his face away, his eyes were slightly red.

Xia Lin patted his hand lightly: "In my life, I don't have any close friends. I'm satisfied to have you with me through the last journey."

Zhou Shuo turned to look at him: "You don't want to know, Song Yan he..."

Xia Lin waved his hand to stop his words: "Don't mention him, I have spent too much on him in my life, and I don't want to deceive myself when I die. Whether he wants to stay single or get back together with Yu Luotong, I have nothing to do with him. related."

Zhou Shuo then changed the subject: "Are you hungry, let me cook you some porridge?"

Zhou Shuo was about to turn around and leave when suddenly the phone rang.

He avoided the door to answer the phone, and when he pushed the door in again, his expression became very strange.

"What's wrong?" Xia Lin asked.

Zhou Shuo hesitated for a moment and said, "Song Yan heard the news of your illness from nowhere, and immediately told the young master. Now both Song and Xia have been alerted and are looking for your whereabouts."

Xia Lin was stunned for a moment. He didn't tell anyone except Zhou Shuo about his illness. He couldn't understand where Song Yan got the news.

He didn't even think that Song Yan would take the initiative to beg the Song family in order to find him. This is not something that Song Yan's stubborn guy can do.

Zhou Shuo said, "Second Young Master, if the Song and Xia families really join forces, the news network will spread throughout City B. My place... I'm afraid I won't be able to hide it."

Xia Lin was silent for a while, then sighed: "It's impossible to hide now... Send me back to Xia's house, and tell my brother that you found me in a small remote hospital, Lest my brother blame you."
