Chapter 218 Like mother, like son
Li Yunhong told a story named Snow White and the seven dwarfs to Xiangyan. The latter was laying in the bed. Chen Qian sat on the other side of the bed and patted Xiangyan’s chest gently.
At the same time, Gu Yan and Manla had already got to the ward. They looked for Mo Yichen carefully but didn’t find him.
Manla collided Gu Yan’s arm to indicate her that Mo Yichen was not here. In her opinion, Mo Yichen must in a desolate area. Since he didn’t answer the phone or WeChat, he must fall asleep somewhere out of tiredness.
Gu Yan couldn’t understand Manla.
She wondered what happened to Mo Yichen. She was worried until she saw Xiangyan safe and sound.
Mo Yichen didn’t need to be worried since he was an adult.
“Grandma, where is daddy?” Xiangyan asked weakly. He tried hard to sit up from the bed.
Li Yunhong put a pillow behind him gently to make him feel comfortable.
“Your father went to the company to deal with something emergency. I can call him here if you miss him.” Li Yunhong said.
“Was daddy mad at me? I shouldn’t do it just now. I won’t be self-willed anymore.” Xiangyan promised.
“Oh, my silly boy, don’t worry. He wasn’t mad at you. He’s too busy recently and feels upset. So, he lost his temper to you.” Li Yunhong tried to comfort him.
“Xiangyan, you should understand him. He must be tired to take care of you and deal with his work at the same time. Follow his orders. He did everything for the sake of you.” Li Yunhong told him.
“Grandma, does dad want to abandon me?” Xiangyan asked.
Xiangyan lowered his head with tears. He didn’t dare to misbehave anymore.
“Come on, Xiangyan. You’re a treasure of your daddy. He is reluctant to leave you. You should recover soon so that your dad could focus on his work.” Li Yunhong comforted him.
Chen Qian touched his head and persuaded him gently as well. She was hoping Xiangyan could consider about his family more.
Xiangyan looked at Chen Qian doubtfully. He thought for a while and nodded.
Chen Qian and Li Yunhong looked at each other. Both Mo Yichen and Xiangyan had a bad temper. But they loved each other deeply.
Manla snickered outside. She tried to control her emotion and got closed to Gu Yan, “Look at your son. His imagination is just like yours. Like mother, like son. Xiangyan inherits your quality totally. That’s funny.”
Gu Yan ignored her sneer and rolled her eyes.
“I thought that Mo Yichen didn’t answer my call since Li Yunhong didn’t want him to keep in touch with me or he did it deliberately. Manla is right. I can’t think too much when something happens.” Gu Yan thought.
“What are you doing? Why don’t you get in?” A doctor was confused to see them hiding there like thieves.
“Hush…” Manla pulled the doctor to the corner and explained something to him. Then the doctor became excited and even showed a “go for it” gesture to them. Gu Yan admired Manla so much since she could deal with embarrassment at any time.
“Hey, what did you say to the doctor? It seemed that you two knew each other before and he appreciates you.” Gu Yan was confused.
“It’s a secret, hee-hee. Don’t you know who I am. It’s just a piece of cake.” Manla said proudly.
“Who’s there?” Li Yunhong rebuked angrily.
“Auntie, let me have a check.” Then the sound of high-heeled shoes grew louder and stronger. Chen Qian opened the door but found nobody outside. There were only the passing doctors, nurses and patients. She scratched her head, tucked her hair and sneered before she got back to the ward.
“Auntie, maybe you got it wrong. There’s nobody outside.” Chen Qian said.
“Well, maybe I have auditory hallucinations since I’m getting old.” Li Yunhong murmured.
“Hey, what did you say to the doctor? Just tell me. I’m really curious.”
Gu Yan pulled Manla’s clothes and begged her.
“No, I can’t tell you. You would definitely beat me for that.” Manla showed an evil smile and raised her eyebrows.
“No, I won’t. Just tell me.” Gu Yan said.
“Really?” Manla didn’t believe her.
“I swear to you.” Gu Yan raised her hands and pretended to swear, trying her best to hold back her anger.
“I said that I am playing games with my sister. She has got brain damage. Others can’t speak during game time. Otherwise, the consequences would be serious. I should obey my sister’s wills. Then we discussed about your illness. He is so handsome when he is earnest.” Gu Yan replied.
Manla was like an anthomaniac when she talked about the doctor.
“What? Did he buy it? What’s wrong with him? Besides, how dare you describe me like that? You are gonna pay for it.”
Gu Yan picked up her bag to chase Manla, while Manla made a mouth from time to time to piss Gu Yan off. They chased after each other in the crowd, getting farther and farther from the hospital.
“Didn’t you swear that you won’t beat me?” Manla asked.
“Did I? You must get it wrong. Wait for me. I’m coming to kick your ass. Stop there…”
