C78 (1/2)
Hospital, Bao Bao's Birthday.
The few of them were only allowed to enter after they had been sterilized. Lu Qinan carried the cake and entered, followed by Gu Zhongshen and Yue Yue who joined in the fun.
After turning off the light, only the light from the candles was left in the ward.
”Bao Bao, make a wish.”
The little guy's face was still pale. This infection had made his body worse than before, but he still raised his eyes and shone brightly under the light. ”Stupid woman, don't you know that even if you made a wish, it wouldn't happen?”
Lu Qinan, ”If you don't try, how would you know …”
”My birthday wish from a few years ago hasn't been fulfilled, alright? Let alone three of them, I don't even have one!”
He snorted but did not say that he had hoped to see his mother every day for the past two years. He could count the number of times he had seen her throughout the year with one hand.
”Cousin brother Bao Bao, you promised me that Fourth Aunt would help you fulfill your wish.”
Yue Yue tiptoed as he hurried her, but his eyes were still staring at the cake without blinking. He licked his saliva on the tip of his tongue …
Bao Bao then swept a glance at Lu Qinan, and brought his hands together.
He said a few words in his heart, then raised his little face and stared at Lu Qinan, ”It's a promise.”
No one knew what wishes he made, but in the long run, Lu Qinan still remembered the moment when he raised his head to look at her.
It was clean and pure, without a hint of magazine in the eye, as if one could be caught in it with a single glance.
”Ah, Bao Bao, I bought some clothes for you, see if it fits.”
The grey woolen sweater that he had stolen from Lu Feifei two days ago was taken out by him as if he was a treasure.
The little guy glanced at it and then put it on the bed. ”So ugly.”
”Don't take them if they look bad!”
A certain someone could not stand the fact that his wife was being gobbled up by this brat from head to toe. He immediately snorted and acted as if he was going to take her clothes back.
Bao Bao immediately jumped up, ”I gave it to you, but it's not mine, how can I take it back!”
He immediately stuffed the clothes into the closet. ”I won't wear them anyway.”
Lu Qinan, ”...”
When he left, the sky was already dark. When he left the hospital, Lu Qinan gave Yue Yue a meaningful glance, and the latter immediately understood, so the driver picked her up and left first. When he left, he even stuck to the window and blinked at Lu Qinan, ”Fourth Aunt, do your best!”
”You've only known each other for a few days and you already had a secret, huh?”
Gu Zhongshen squinted his eyes, looking unhappily at the girl who was flirting with him, to the point that her face had turned red for no reason.
”Fourth Uncle, accompany me to a place. I have something I want to tell you. ”
”Can you say it here?”
She shook her head, it was rare for her to be so stubborn. ”Just accompany me there. There won't be much delay.”
Gu Zhongshen raised her eyebrow, it was rare for her to act so coquettishly towards him, her round cheeks were covered with a faint layer of red, her clear eyes reflected his expression, making her seem extremely serious.
In an instant, he felt as if someone had heavily bumped into him, and warmth overflowed from his chest.
He nodded and his phone rang at an untimely moment.
”What is it?”
The man's tone was solemn, and from a distance, Lu Qinan could not hear what he was saying, but he could immediately see the man's gloomy face, ”How many times do you want me to say it, it has nothing to do with me!”
Fourth Uncle seemed to be very angry.
The little girl stood not far from him, blowing on the cold wind as she stared at the man's ice-cold face. It was as if she could feel his agitated mood.
After a long while, the man finally hung up the phone. However, his expression was exceptionally solemn, and a trace of annoyance could be vaguely seen.
”An An, something urgent happened at the last minute. ”So, you tell me the place, and I'll go there as soon as I'm done, eh?”
Furthermore, in that instant, Lu Qinan could clearly feel the change in the man's emotions. The aura on his body was still warm, but in a short one minute, his entire body was filled with a somber killing intent.
She paused and nodded. ”Alright, no matter how late it is, I'll wait for you.”
Lu Qinan called for a taxi and left. Through the rearview mirror, Lu Qinan could still see the tall and straight figure of a man.
The autumn weather was getting colder and colder, and the way he wore his suit made him stand out in the night. He seemed to have stayed where he was for a while, taking note of her license plate, until the car turned the corner and the black Bentley finally disappeared from sight.
