Chương 1576: Night Vigil

The first night of vigil was excruciating.

Jin Liwei couldn't fall asleep no matter how much he tried. Lying beside him on the sofa bed, Iris couldn't sleep properly either. She could feel her husband's fear and anxiety like invisible waves emanating from him.

However, she was too exhausted. She fell into a light sleep for about a couple of hours before waking up. Her eyes opened and saw her husband tiptoeing in the darkness toward the patient room. He didn't enter the enclosed room but stood outside the glass windows to watch his unconscious grandmother.

Sighing, Iris couldn't sleep anymore. She also rose and walked towards him.

"Sorry, love," he said when he noticed her approaching him. "Did I wake you up?"

She didn't answer him but asked a question instead. "You didn't sleep at all?"

He opened his mouth to reply, but she told him before he could: "Don't you dare lie to me."
