Chapter 173: One hundred seventy-three: eting Uncle Guang with Tangtang_1 Chapter 173: One hundred seventy-three: eting Uncle Guang with Tangtang_1 Gu Chen nodded, “Okay.”

After speaking, he took his own phone.

…

Ti flies quickly, and before I knew it, the sun was about to set.

As it was getting dark, Ji Pianran couldn’t help but gaze at Tangtang, who was sitting across from her, playing rock-paper-scissors on the girl’s hospital bed.

“It’s getting dark. Take the child ho,” Ji Pianran said softly to Gu Chen.

When night falls, the road will beco harder to navigate. It’s ti for them to go ho.

Truth be told, Gu Chen didn’t want to leave. The ti he spent with his family was indeed very relaxing and comfortable.

He truly wanted to stay longer.

But it was almost dinner ti.

Tangtang hadn’t eaten yet, and if he were alone, he could just find any place in the hospital to sleep through the night.

But with his daughter, it wouldn’t be right to let her suffer alongside him.

He pursed his lips, nodded helplessly, and said, “Got it. I’ll co to see you again tomorrow morning.”

Ji Pianran smiled and replied, “Good.”

“Tangtang, it’s ti to go ho,” Gu Chen said to Tangtang with a face full of patience.

The little one, hearing that it was ti to leave, wriggled her plump little bottom off the girl’s hospital bed and ran over with small steps.

In this period, the little one had gotten quite chubby thanks to Gu Chen’s care, her skin turning tender and fair, and her lips pink and adorable.

She flung herself onto Ji Pianran’s bed and looked up at her.

Her little chubby face, still bearing traces of baby fat, showed serious expressions.

“Mommy, are you coming ho with us?” she asked.

She wanted both daddy and mommy to go ho.

Ji Pianran reached out and caressed her head affectionately, her voice gentle.

“Be patient a little longer, Tangtang. Tomorrow, tomorrow mommy can co ho,” she said.

The doctor had co for a ward round in the afternoon and said that she was recovering exceptionally well. If everything was okay, she could be discharged tomorrow.

“Mommy is still sick now and needs to cooperate with the examinations to get better faster. Once mommy is better, we’ll go ho,” Gu Chen also coaxed.

After listening to both of them, the little one nodded obediently.

“Okay, then tomorrow daddy and I will co to take mommy ho,” she said.

“Right, take these cherries ho with you, so we have less to carry tomorrow,” Ji Pianran pointed to the big bag of cherries on her bedside cabinet.

She wouldn’t be able to eat today, and with her discharge tomorrow, the cherries would need to be taken ho anyway. Better to let Gu Chen take them now, so Tangtang could have so tonight.

“Just leave them. We can eat them tomorrow morning,” said Gu Chen with a smile.

The cherries were indeed good, and he really wanted Ji Pianran to try them.

Ji Pianran held back a smile.

“So am I eating breakfast or fruit tomorrow morning?” she asked.

Gu Chen, who had only been thinking about letting Ji Pianran try the cherries, had forgotten that she really couldn’t eat them.

He shook his head and chuckled, “Okay, then we’ll eat when we get ho tomorrow.”

…

Gu Chen held Tangtang in one arm and the bag of cherries in the other.

After exiting the doors of the inpatient departnt, the sunset had already begun to fade, and the horizon glowed with rosy light.

The slightly moist air carried a faint scent of earth, and Gu Chen seed to sll the vigor of life.

Tangtang, cradled in Gu Chen’s arms, had her cute little braids touched by the sunset, giving them a slight yellow hue.

It added a few more touches of cuteness.

She wrapped her arms around Gu Chen’s neck and said in her milky voice, “Daddy, is it ti to eat now?”

“Yes, it is. What does Tangtang want to eat? Daddy’s cooking, or shall we eat out?”

Hearing she could still eat outside, the little girl’s eyes instantly lit up, and her tone beca excited.

“Daddy, I want a roujiamo.”

The roujiamo Dad bought for last ti was really delicious.

She really, really wanted to taste it again.

The little one’s face was full of longing, causing Gu Chen to smother a smile.

“Alright….”

It was just then that Uncle Guang finished his busy work at the hospital gate and ca in, looking up to see Gu Chen, his face breaking into an enthusiastic smile as he approached.

“We et again, what a coincidence. That Cordy….” Uncle Guang started to say as he glanced towards Tiantian in Gu Chen’s arms.

The mont he saw her, he forgot his words.

His expression beca thought-provoking.

“Is this child yours?”

She didn’t dare say she looked exactly like the young miss as a child, but a sixty percent resemblance was definitely there.

That little face was just as adorable, just as exquisite.

The young miss had run away from the Ji Family several years ago, and no one knew where she was now or how she was faring.

Nowadays, her father’s health is worse day by day; if she’s not found soon, I’m afraid father and daughter won’t even be able to see each other for a last ti.

Thinking of this, Uncle Guang felt a wave of lancholy.

Gu Chen proudly nodded, “My daughter — pretty, isn’t she?”

Seeing an uncle talk to her dad, the sensible little one spoke up, “Hello, Uncle.”

Mom had said that good children greet others first.

She was a good child.

Uncle Guang had been with the Ji Family for at least twenty years; he had co when Ji Pianran was just one year old.

To say he watched her grow up would be an understatent.

Seeing the little girl in front of him, he couldn’t help but recall so decades-old mories. Back then, Ji Pianran was just like Tiantian now, a sweet “hello, Uncle” that would lt his heart.

Uncle Guang patted her head, “What uncle? You should be calling grandpa.”

After saying that, he smiled at Gu Chen, “This hair of mine is dyed, it turned white a long ti ago. I can’t help it; it’s to make myself look a bit more spirited.”

Tiantian blinked, “But Grandpa looks so young~”

She was still little, not knowing what dyeing hair ant. All she knew was that gray hair belonged to a grandpa, black hair to an uncle.

The little one’s words made both n laugh.

“How old are you this year?” Uncle Guang asked gently, cajoling her.

He originally wanted to ask Gu Chen what his wife’s na was, which would be a bit more abrupt.

However, since he wasn’t familiar with this young man, he was afraid such a blunt question might make him uncomfortable. So he turned again and asked Tiantian.

“Tiantian is almost three years old.” The little one looked into his eyes and answered confidently.

“Oh, three years old,” Uncle Guang pondered. The young miss had been gone for four years. If this really was her child, it ant she had beco pregnant not long after running away.

She had left ho to avoid marriage; how could she possibly have beco pregnant so soon after running away?

It seed that this child likely had nothing to do with the young miss.

But if there was no relation, why did she look so much like her?

He was sowhat lost in thought.

“By the way, Uncle Guang, I’ve bought a phone. Here’s my number for you to rember,” said Gu Chen.

He had been asking him for his contact details for several days. Now that he had a phone, of course, he wanted to share his number.

And the Cordyceps were just sprouting; it was hard to say when they’d be ready.

Exchanging contact information was convenient for everyone.

“Haha, sure,” Uncle Guang said as he pulled out his phone from his pocket.
