“What?!” Su Yue’s eyes widened in shock. She hurriedly got up. She said guiltily, “I have to hide quickly.”
“Why do you need to hide?” Ming Ansheng raised his eyebrow at her, amused at her state of panic. “Didn’t you ask her to come?”
Nobody knew about his hospitalization, not even Third Yan and Lu Yinan.
From what he understood about Su Yue, Xuxu must’ve been the first person she told about Bai Jing’s hospitalization.
Su Yue suddenly recalled something. “Oh yes, I called my third sister-in-law to tell her that Bai Jing was hospitalized here.”
Her lips curled up into a foolish smile.
Ming Ansheng stood up and gently poked her cheek. “Silly girl.”
“I’ll go visit Bai Jing then,” Su Yue said, bending over to pick up the bag of things that she had bought. She then pointed at the door.
“Sure.” Ming Ansheng nodded. “Come over after your third sister-in-law leaves.”
Su Yue pursed her lips. “I’m going back to school.”
Actually, she was already planning on coming back—she was just being cheeky.
Ming Ansheng replied, “You sleep during class anyway, is there a difference whether or not you attend your lessons?”
Su Yue’s eyes widened in shock. “How did you know?”
Ming Ansheng smiled and waved goodbye to her. “Hurry.”
“Okay.” She turned around and took two steps before recalling something. She turned her head to look at him. “Uncle Ming, I’m going to Country M for Christmas, do you want to join us?”
Ming Ansheng smiled and raised his eyebrow. “Aren’t you going with your third brother and third sister-in-law? You’re not afraid that they’d find out about us?”
“Oh…” Su Yue pursed her lips. “You better not go then.”
They could only have an underground relationship.
She thought about it and her face fell. She continued walking towards the door.
Ming Ansheng tucked his hands into his loose home wear as he watched Su Yue’s small figure leave the room in sheer amusement.
Christmas! In Country M?
Sounds good.
…
Su Yue ran down the stairs and was panting. From afar, she saw Wen Xuxu standing outside Bai Jing’s ward, talking on the phone.
She was running as she called out, “Third sister-in-law.”
Wen Xuxu heard Su Yue and put down her phone. She looked over and asked, “Where did you go? I was just about to call you.”
“I…” Su Yue felt a pang of guilt. She lifted her bag of food and smiled and said, “I went to buy food. Bai Jing hasn’t eaten breakfast.”
“What did you buy?” Wen Xuxu glanced over at the bag she was holding and a smile full of tenderness formed on her face.
“Snacks,” Su Yue replied.
She grabbed Xuxu’s hand. “Let’s go in. Bai Jing must be hungry.”
Her ward door wasn’t locked, so Su Yue was able to push it open with her leg.
Lei Yong and Zhang Lihong had already left so the ward was quiet and even a little desolate.
Bai Jing was sitting on the bed. She was still on the IV drip as she was scrolling through her phone.
“Bai Jing, Su Yue bought breakfast, come and have some.”
Xuxu walked over to her bed.
“Oh.” Bai Jing turned her phone off and looked up, smiling at Xuxu.
Confused, she looked at Su Yue and asked, “Why did you take so long?”
“Erm…” Su Yue hesitated and glanced at Xuxu in guilt. She felt that Bai Jing wouldn’t have known that she went to visit Uncle Ming, so she spun a lie for her third sister-in-law, and opted to tell Bai Jing the truth later.
