"How’s Xiao Yan? Has her fever gone down? How much of the food I sent did she eat?" Zhang Hualian was sitting in the living room making dumplings. When she saw Lian Qingyang return, she fired off a series of questions.
"Mom, I haven’t even sat down yet."
Lian Qingyang raised the few insulated lunch boxes in his hand, placed them aside, walked into the house, and imdiately felt warm all over.
"Xiao Yang, don’t interrupt."
Zhang Hualian stopped making dumplings, looked at Lian Qingyang, and pressed, "How’s Xiao Yan? Tell !"
"It’s nothing, just a cold and a fever, the fever might have been a bit high, that’s why she fainted." Lian Qingyang quickly ran to wash his hands and sat down to make dumplings, saying, "That Jin Yan sure is careless, her fever went up to forty degrees, and she still went to the studio. Grown-up like her, doesn’t know how to take care of herself at all."
Lian Qingyang spoke while making dumplings.
"What?"
Upon hearing the fever reached forty degrees, Zhang Hualian’s face changed dramatically, urgently asking, "Xiao Yang, has the fever gone down now? The Jin Family is not in Jing City, poor Xiao Yan all alone in the hospital. Luckily Xiao Yue is there to care for her, otherwise, being alone would be so pitiful."
Lian Qingyang: "..."
"Xiao Yang, you’re free tomorrow, go to the hospital to look after Xiao Yan." Zhang Hualian quickly made dumplings and added, "Tomorrow morning, take Xiao Yan so dumplings, they’re light and surely comfortable to eat."
"Maybe so porridge, in case she doesn’t want dumplings?"
Zhang Hualian mused aloud, looking at the quiet Lian Qingyang, and said, "Xiao Yang, didn’t you say you have three days off?"
"Mom, it’s my rare few days of rest." Lian Qingyang looked at Zhang Hualian eagerly.
"What, you don’t want to go look after Xiao Yan?" Zhang Hualian gave him a sharp look.
Lian Qingyang’s lips moved, he placed the dumplings he’d just made onto a tray and said, "It’s not that I don’t want to, but mom, are you sure I’m your biological child? Jin Yan is sick with a cold and fever, the fever is almost gone, it’s not like... she needs soone to look after her."
eting Zhang Hualian’s gaze, Lian Qingyang changed his tone, "I don’t mind taking care of her, but mom, why do you seem to care about her more than ?"
Jin Yan, poor thing, having no one around to look after her isn’t good, but why does it feel like Zhang Hualian cares more about Xiao Yan than him?
"Lian Qingyang!"
Zhang Hualian raised her hand and knocked it down, saying, "Xiao Yan is with your sister, busy with this and that, and now with her family not in Jing City, what’s wrong with us taking more care?"
"I didn’t say I wouldn’t." Lian Qingyang pouted in grievance.
"Uncle, play with ." Chenchen ran over, his eyes shining as he looked at the dumplings Lian Qingyang was making, saying, "Uncle’s dumplings are ugly, mom’s are better."
"Chenchen, not playing with you now."
Lian Qingyang took a good look at the dumplings he made, they might not be pretty, but surely not ugly?
"Uncle is bad."
Chenchen pouted.
Lian Qingyang hurriedly coaxed, "Chenchen, uncle was teasing you, uncle will play with you."
"Co on, let’s go play." Chenchen pulled Lian Qingyang away.
"Chenchen, I need to wash my hands." Lian Qingyang looked at his flour-dusted hands, but his body followed Chenchen’s little steps.
Chenchen stopped, eyed Lian Qingyang’s dirty hands, and said disdainfully, "Uncle, go wash your hands."
Just as ng Siyu arrived ho, Chenchen standing in the living room, looking forward to Lian Qingyang’s return, saw ng Siyu walk in, smiled broadly, and ran to ng Siyu with open arms, sweetly calling, "Daddy."
"Chenchen." ng Siyu took off his military coat, embraced his soft daughter, and kissed her little face.
Every day, as soon as Chenchen sees him, she beams and asks for a hug.
"Daddy, you ca ho earlier than yesterday..." Chenchen tilted her head, looked at the clock on the wall, and counted on her fingers, saying, "Thirty minutes earlier."
"Chenchen is so smart." ng Siyu sat on the sofa with Chenchen, greeted Tang Zhengde and Zhang Hualian, and asked, "Where’s your brother?"
"Brother’s reading." Chenchen puffed her cheeks and said, "He won’t play with ."
"Where’s mom?"
ng Siyu held Chenchen’s chubby little hand, looking at her adorable face, his heart lting.
Chenchen’s big round eyes were just like Tang Yue’s, sparkling with intelligence.
"Mom’s at the hospital." Chenchen hugged ng Siyu excitedly, leaning against him, saying she likes her daddy.
"Hospital?" ng Siyu’s expression changed instantly.
Zhang Hualian hurriedly said, "Don’t worry, it’s Xiao Yan who’s sick, Xiao Yue is taking care of her at the hospital, Xiao Yue is fine."
"Then I’ll go pick her up." ng Siyu released her.
Chenchen hugged ng Siyu tightly and looked up, saying, "Daddy, mom said she’d stay at the hospital today, daddy doesn’t need to pick her up."
Chenchen spoke softly, her big eyes blinking, she said, "Daddy, I want to sleep with you today."
"Daddy, with mom not here, let’s sleep together." Chenchen hugged him tightly, looking at him eagerly.
She wants to sleep with daddy, but he always tells her to sleep with her brother.
She wants to sleep with mommy, daddy always forbids it.
"Okay." ng Siyu suppressed the urge to go find Tang Yue.
"Chenchen, let’s go play." Lian Qingyang ca back with freshly washed hands and saw ng Siyu, reaching out to hug Chenchen. Chenchen snuggled into ng Siyu’s embrace, looking up, saying, "Daddy promised, no lying."
"Okay, daddy won’t lie." ng Siyu reached out, made a pinky promise with his daughter, and coaxed her.
Lian Qingyang took Chenchen to play in the room, not long after, laughter filled the air.
"Siyu, Xiao Yue needed to talk to Xiao Yan today, that’s why she stayed in the hospital, and also because the Jin Family is not at ho." Zhang Hualian explained.
ng Siyu’s eyes flickered, "Mom, which hospital?"
Zhang Hualian casually ntioned the hospital, seeing ng Siyu put on his coat to leave, she asked quickly, "Siyu, where are you going?"
"I’m going to see them at the hospital." ng Siyu put on his coat, took a few steps, and added, "Mom, Chenchen said she wants to sleep with , tonight let the kids sleep with ."
"Okay." Zhang Hualian couldn’t stop him, watching ng Siyu leave, she said, "Zhengde, our son-in-law, we’ve not chosen wrongly."
Zhang Hualian’s face blood with a smile, seeing Tang Yue and ng Siyu’s relationship with her eyes.
Tang Zhengde chuckled, "Of course, my daughter’s choice can’t be wrong."
"Hualian, take a break, I’ll finish making the rest of the dumplings, there are enough for a few days."
*
Hospital.
When ng Siyu arrived, Tang Yue couldn’t believe her eyes. She had already told her mother, and also Chenchen, so ng Siyu wouldn’t co looking for her.
