At that moment, one of the tears fell squarely, landing precisely on the back of Xu Yingying's fair, delicate hand. As if touched by some mysterious power, the teardrop trembled slightly on the back of her hand before quietly seeping into her skin and disappearing.

Just then, a sudden, rapid knock on the door shattered the tranquil atmosphere. It was Old Man Lin, standing outside. He knocked again, calling out, "Weiye, please come out. I have something important to tell you." Hearing his grandfather's call, Lin Weiye quickly wiped the remaining tears from his eyes, took a deep breath, steeled himself, and hurried toward the door...

Lin Weiye looked at his grandfather sitting on the sofa with a face full of worry, and asked anxiously: "Grandpa, I'm really worried. Let's take Yingying to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up later!"

Elder Lin nodded slightly in agreement, then slowly said, "Weiye, I just spoke to Doctor Fang again and explained the situation in detail. Doctor Fang also suggested that if we still feel uneasy, it's best to send the patient to the hospital for a thorough examination."

Hearing this, Lin Weiye nodded with a sense of relief, and he and his grandfather quickly reached a consensus. Then, he turned and strode into the room, intending to pack up his wife and take her to the hospital.

However, what Lin Weiye never expected was that the moment he stepped into the room, he unexpectedly discovered that Xu Yingying, who had been unconscious, had woken up.

Lin Weiye was pleasantly surprised, and his pace quickened unconsciously. He rushed to the bedside in two steps and asked with concern, "Wife, you're finally awake? Are you feeling unwell?"

Xu Yingying was still a little drowsy and dazed at this moment. She blinked hard, trying to wake up from the chaotic state. She only remembered that she was still immersed in a beautiful dream, but suddenly it was like a basin of cold water was poured over her head. Then her eyes brightened, and when she opened her eyes again, she was back in the real world.

Xu Yingying looked at the nervous Lin Weiye with a bewildered look on her face, and asked puzzledly: "What happened? Look how anxious you are..."

Lin Weiye held Xu Yingying's hand tightly, his eyes unwilling to leave her face for a moment, as if he was afraid that in the blink of an eye, his wife would fall asleep again.

Seeing Lin Weiye remain silent, Xu Yingying roughly guessed that Lin Weiye must have noticed her inability to wake up from her dream. He must have thought something had happened to her. Xu Yingying stood there bewildered, her lips slightly parted, unsure how to explain this perplexing situation. In fact, even she herself had only a vague idea of what was happening and couldn't make sense of it at all. So, she decided to feign complete ignorance and softly said, "Oh, did I sleep for a long time just now? It feels like an eternity has passed."

Lin Weiye, standing by, secretly groaned inwardly, but he couldn't bear to tell Xu Yingying the truth, fearing it would scare her. So, he tried to look natural and slowly replied, "Actually... it wasn't that long. It's still quite a while before lunch."

At that moment, a loud and clear growling sound erupted from Xu Yingying's stomach, as if announcing its hunger to the entire room. Hearing this sudden noise, Xu Yingying and Lin Weiye simultaneously looked up and exchanged glances. For a moment, the air seemed to freeze, and an indescribable awkwardness filled the air.

Xu Yingying's cheeks flushed instantly. Like a child who had done something wrong, she quickly lowered her head and stammered in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Well...but I'm really a little hungry." After saying this, she was no longer embarrassed to look up at Lin Weiye.

Seeing Xu Yingying's bewildered, blushing, and extremely embarrassed expression, Lin Weiye's heart instantly tightened. He quickly walked over, gently patted Xu Yingying's shoulder, and said in a warm and soothing voice, "Don't worry, dear! I'll have someone make you some delicious food to fill your stomach first. After a while, we can enjoy this incredibly sumptuous lunch together."

After hearing these words, Xu Yingying raised her head like a startled little rabbit, her eyes meeting Lin Weiye's. She nodded slightly, her cherry-like lips pursed softly, as if expressing her agreement. Meanwhile, Lin Weiye seemed to still be in disbelief at what he was seeing. He kept looking back, repeatedly checking whether he was seeing correctly. After all, Xu Yingying's quick awakening truly surprised and delighted him.

When Lin Weiye hurried downstairs, he suddenly slapped his forehead, remembering that he had just mentioned to Old Master Lin that he wanted to take Xu Yingying to the hospital for a comprehensive checkup. While he was thinking, Old Master Lin saw him coming down the stairs alone. He couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked, "Weiye, why are you the only one coming down? Is there something wrong?"

Lin Weiye quickly gathered himself and replied, "Grandpa, good news! Yingying has woken up, but she's probably a little hungry now because she slept for too long."

When Mr. Lin heard that his granddaughter-in-law had finally woken up, his wrinkled face suddenly broke into an ecstatic smile. He nodded repeatedly, then turned to the busy Sister Yang and shouted loudly: "Sister Yang, hurry up! Please make some delicious food for Yingying, but don't let my precious granddaughter-in-law starve!"

Mrs. Yang responded, swiftly putting down her work, turning and walking quickly into the kitchen to begin preparing. Suddenly, the crisp clatter of pots and pans colliding against each other echoed from the kitchen, as if playing a joyful symphony of delicious food...

Old Master Lin asked Lin Weiye again with an anxious look on his face: "How is Yingying doing now?"

Lin Weiye quickly replied, "Just when I stepped into the room, I was pleasantly surprised to find Yingying awake! However, I'm not entirely sure what her exact physical condition is. What do you think, Grandpa? In my opinion, wouldn't it be best to send Yingying to the hospital for a comprehensive checkup?"
