Jian Dan had barely joined the company when she found herself assigned to a big project and had to work overtime every day. She would only return to the hospital very late. By the time she returned, the two munchkins were basically asleep. Although she was very tired and busy, there would be a generous bonus after completion of the project, so this was the best thing for her now.
This morning, she went to work after buying breakfast for the two munchkins. As she was leaving the hospital, she saw someone who was unconscious and looked to be in a serious condition being brought in by many people. However, she did not stay around to find out. The hospital was quite a distance away from the office, so she had to leave early every day to ensure that she would arrive at the office on timeâ¦
Chu Liyuan, who had been reprimanded by Sizhe, did not argue with him. After all, it was only at such a time that Sizhe dared to reprimand him. Let him have some fun then! Besides, heâs indeed doing it for my own good.
âAlright, got it. Donât worry, I wonât die.â
âIf you continue like this, itâll be hard to say.â
âLi Jing, Iâm a little thirsty. Get me a glass of water.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
In order not to let Sizhe continue to nag, he changed the topic.
âYouâve just undergone surgery. You canât drink water before passing gas.â
Sizhe could tell what he was trying to do, so he did not continue with his lecture. He shook his head and left the ward.
I wonder when Liyuan will be able to let it go?
In order to pass gas as soon as possible, Li Jing helped Chu Liyuan up and walked around more to help with passing gasâ¦
âLi Jing, go home. Working overtime these few days has been hard on you. Iâll be fine alone.â
âBut Mr. Chu⦠are you sure? Iâd better stay and take care of you.â
âI said itâs fine, so itâs fine. Why are you so wishy-washy as a man? Hurry up and get out of here.â
âButâ¦â
âOne more word and this monthâs salaryâ¦â
âAlright, Mr. Chu. Iâll leave immediately. Be careful. Get the nurse if you need anything.â
âSave your breath. I know this place better than you.â
After Li Jing left, Chu Liyuan wandered around by himselfâ¦
When he reached the garden, he saw a cute little girl looking up at a handkerchief on a tree.
Chu Liyuan was not someone who liked to poke his nose into other peopleâs business, but for some reason, he felt an inexplicable sense of kinship to this little girl.
âLittle girl, what are you looking at?â Chu Liyuan squatted beside her and asked.
When Jian Xiaoxin heard the voice, she turned around and saw a handsome face. She smiled sweetly. âUncle, my handkerchief fell on the tree. Iâm too short to reach it. Can you help me get it back?â
Chu Liyuan looked at the little girlâs smiling face in a daze. This smile is exactly the same as Jian Jianâs.
âUncle!â Seeing Chu Liyuan looking at her in a daze, Jian Xiaoxin waved her small hand in front of his eyes.
âOh, sorry!â Looking up at the handkerchief on the tree, he got up and raised his hand. As he exerted himself, he pulled on the wound of his surgery. He frowned slightly and reached the handkerchief while enduring the pain. âHere you go.â
âThank you, Uncle!â
Jian Xiaoxin took the handkerchief from Chu Liyuan and sat on the nearby bench. She carefully folded the handkerchief and put it in her pocket.
âYou seem to treasure this handkerchief of yours?â
Chu Liyuan asked when he saw how careful she was.
âOf course. Mom gave it to me.â
âDo you love your mother very much?â
âOf course. The people I love the most in this world are my mother and brother.â
âWhat about your father?â
âI donât have a father.â
Jian Xiaoxin turned to look at Chu Liyuanâ¦
