<h4>Chapter 198 - Missed On So Much</h4>


    " Yuyu , Yanyan , Thank you so much for helping Shuyan " said Father Lin wiping his eyes as he looked at his kids with gratitude , he knew that his sons misunderstood him at first but even then these boys helped Shuyan . It clearly showed their good heart and character - looks like his Lan ''er did a good job in raising their sons . When he was being enved by The Qi family , there were many times when Father Lin worried about his Wife. Before marrying him , Zhao Lan was really wilful and she remained so even after marrying him . He even missed his sons and used to worry about how he was missing the crucial period of the growth - there were many times he was anxious and nervous about how his family was living without him . But now , as his sons stood in front of him - healthy and alive with rosyplexion , Father Lin couldn''t help but thank God for his mercy and letting his family pass through all the hurdles " father - father missed you so much , I - not a day went by when I didn''t think about you guys. I really wanted to return home , I missed you all so much , its good , its good you are healthy and happy -"


    Before Father Lin could continue on with his emotional ramblings , Lin Yan and Lin Yu hugged him . Enjoying the familiar warmth of their father that they have missed for so long , for a second Father Lin was stunned but then his old face crumpled and he started brawling like a child . He hugged his sons close and kept patting them on the back , feeling their muscr and strong back - the feeling of loss in his heart doubled . He had lost so much , so much - his sons were already as tall as him . And yet he haven''t seen either of them grow , Father Lin cried so wretchedly that everyone who saw him felt his pain , they all felt heartbroken for him even without knowing who the man was , their eyes filled with tears as they looked at Father Lin ''s sobbing face .


    Lin Yan and Lin Yu also clutched their father''s back and sobbed like they did when they were children . When they were young , even though they weren''t rich , their father loved them wholeheartedly - if someone dared to hit them once , their father used to hit that person twice . He even saved them from Grandma Lin ''s wrath and took everything on himself but never let anyone harm them .


    And when they used to fall down? and injure themselves , their father was the first person who used to rush towards them and applied medicine . He had never let them suffer , and yet he suffered so much .


    The nurse who came out saw this scene and was stunned , this … a few minutes ago this family was looking at each like they were enemies and now they were hugging and crying together ? What happened in just a few minutes ? However , the nurse was Doctor Gu ''s apprentice and was a professional despite his young age thus he knew what to ask and what not to ask - he immediately pulled a serious face and then spoke in his childlike voice " the patient is awake and is asking for you , Sir , please doe inside once you are ready "


    After saying so , he turned around and went back inside . But the apprentice ''s words were like a wakeup call and everyone stopped crying - Lin Yan pulled away from Father Lin and wiped his tears , pulling Lin Yu aside with him " Father , let''s go and see Shuyan . He is still a kid and would be scared if you are not there "


    Father Lin nodded and went inside , once he walked inside the medicine hall - he saw Qi Shuyan awake and looking around curiously - though his eyes held some timidity , the kid was still trying to hold his fear inside . Seeing father Lin return , Qi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief .


    " Good child … are you feeling alright ?" Asked Father Lin as he ced his hand on Qi Shuyan ''s forehead . Though Qi Shuyan ''s body was still warm , it was a bit better than before and the child was no longer coughing .


    Doctor Gu , saw them return and immediately walked inside the hall with a smile " the child is alright but very weak . Lin Yan , Lin Yu , you have to pay attention to the child''s diet and let him recover properly . As for medicine , Brother Lin - I have already prescribed the medicine , here take it "


    Father Lin took the small paper that Doctor Gu shoved in his hands and immediately bowed " Thank you , Thank you so much brother Gu . Its all thanks to you that this child is alright "


    " There is no need for such formality " said Doctor Gu waving Father Lin ''s gratitude aside " we both are just like brothers , why are you acting? like this ? Don''t bow anymore if you do I will get angry "


    Father Lin didn''t know what to do but he didn''t want to upset his old friend in the end he simply smiled awkwardly.


    Lin Yan took the paper on which Doctor Gu have written the medicine and said " I will go and buy these as well as something to eat , Ah Yu take care of the kids and father . I will be back . " Then he ced his basket down on the floor and walked out of the medicine hall .


    Father Lin "…" who was treated in the same line as little kids .


    He looked at his son''s vanishing back and smiled ruefully - hah , that brat used to cry in front of him? when the girls used to tease him for being more beautiful than them and now he was asking his younger brother to take care of him ? Their father ? Really ?


    Father Lin however didn''t say anything - looking down at his hollowed and weakened body then furtively looking at Lin Yu who stood tall and straight despite? carrying a heavy bucket on his back - yeah , looks like he was really in need to be looked after .
