77 Where Is Your Loyalty? (1/2)
Thursday 18th Apartment 5 - 7:00 am
Li Xiuying and Little 4th were happily having breakfast in the living room. They were both already showered and dressed. There was some anime playing in the background.
Little 4th: ”Big Sister YingYing”
Li Xiuying: ”Mmm.”
Little 4th: ”Big Sister YingYing. You know my brother isn't all bad. He's just annoying sometimes... all of the time.” He decided to help his elder brother a little. What if his big sister started to dislike his eldest brother so much that she starts to avoid him too?
Li Xiuying quirked a brow at little 4th.
Little 4th smiled sheepishly and rapidly changed the subject: ”Big sister YingYing what are you going to do today?”
Li Xiuying: ”Work then shopping.”
Little 4th pleaded: ”Big Sister YingYing can I come shopping too? I promise I'll be good.”
Li Xiuying looked at little 4th cute little face and didn't have the heart to say now. She used her gloved hand to pinch the little bun's plump white cheek.
LI Xiuying sent a text to Ren Daiyu: ”Daiyu. Little 4th wants to accompany us. Opinion?”
Li Xiuying received an immediately reply: ”Good Morning YingYing! Sure I don't mind the little bun coming but won't he get bored?”
Li Xiuying: ”Leave from Unity?”
Ren Daiyu text: ”Okay I'll pick you up at 4 from Unity hospital. Make sure you're fully energized and ready to shop until you drop!”
Li Xiuying put her phone in her pocket. ”Shopping at 4.”
Little 4th lifted both of his arms in the air: ”YES!” He was excited that he could spend more time with his big sister.
Li Xiuying smiled at little 4th's antics. They continued happily eating and watching anime.

At 8:15 am Qin Jingfei awoke with a start as she felt her pillow vibrating.
She sloppily searched for her phone. She grasped her phone and cracked open her eyes lids. She immediately sat up as she saw the time.
She answered the video call and jumped out of bed at the same time. The faces of her annoyed daughter and husband appeared.
Qin Jingfei: ”Morning honey. Morning baby. How's my RúRú today?”
Tan Qiànrú pointed and said: ”Bad Mommy.” She then ended the video chat.
Qin Jingfei looked at her phone screen confused. She couldn't understand why her Husband and daughter were angry with her. She had told them it was because of Qin song's forceful request that she had to stay over with little 4th.
Qin Jingfei looked at the time it was 8:19 am. She would have to figure out the reason why later. She grabbed her overnight bag and ran into the bathroom.
At 8:35 Qin Jingfei rushed into the hall way to find no one there. She put on her shoes and rushed out the front door.
She briskly walked to her car and drove to Unity Hospital.
Qin Jingfei had just parked her car when she received a phone call.
Qin Jingfei: ”Hello.”
Little 4th: ”Cousin Jingfei why did you leave without us?”
Qin Jingfei: ”I didn't leave without you! You both clearly left without me. I've just reached the hospital now. Where are you both?”
