On the other side, Li Xue, Feng Shufen, and the little head reached the hospital. With the devilic-angel fluttering her wings and sprinkling her giggles everywhere, the whole VVIP floor of the hospital no longer was holding the seriousness in the area, rather everything around seemed to have turned positive.
"Aunt Yi Lan, are you getting a good night's sleep?" Suddenly leaving every talk around, Little Li Wei reached to her Aunt to hold her hands compassionately in hers.
Feng Yi Lan was taken aback by the sudden approach of the little one. She was sitting with Li Xue and having some talk about the upcoming event when this sudden question popped up with a soft, soothing touch. She looked at the little girl before turning to Li Xue in confusion.
But Li Xue looked equally blank. She had no idea why suddenly that question came? So shrugging the question with no answer, she let Yi Lan ask herself.
"Why, Little Chipmunk? Do I look tired? Did my eyes have dark circles within?" Feng Yi Lan asked, pretending to be a little worried to see how the little girl reacts. She would not be surprised if Li Wei nods to her question because in the last few days she was truly not having a good sleep. Not because she was having a problem with sleep but because these days she has got a lot to worry about.
Luckily, she has got the man to sleep beside her. With his presence, somehow at night, her nerves soothe on their own, helping her relax for a few hours and have some good sleep. As she thought it like that, her eyes on their own darted to look at the man who was lying on the bed and talking about something of his own with her brother.
But the moment she looked her breath hitched as his eyes also turned to give her the wink of playfulness … Letting her know that deep in his talks, he has got her in his thoughts even when he works.
Getting caught by his gaze, Feng Yi Lan at once reverted her gaze back at the little princess as if his sudden wander of gaze was out of mistake and she was just waiting to hear the words of the little girl. And nothing else.
Little Li Wei looked at her Aunt and slowly turned to look around the room where all the files were kept and then towards the bed where her Uncle Cutie was resting. Looking at everything, she turned back to reply, "Aunt is working hard every day and she needs a good sleep. So WeiWei is concerned if you are having yours or not. Furthermore, with so many tubes connected to Uncle Cutie, it must be difficult sleeping on the bed without hurting him".
She said innocently but Feng Yi Lan almost choked on her breath hearing it. Her face got fl.u.s.tered red as she did not dare to look at anyone. Li Xue also could not help but suppress a peal of laughter before turning to look at Director Qi and Feng Shufen. But opposite to Feng Yi Lan's embarrassment, Qi Shuai was holding a proud expression that there was nothing wrong with that question and he was not denying it.
Li Xue shook her head at his attitude, before turning to her daughter and pulling her to her. "Sweetie, Aunt Yi Lan is having a good sleep. You don't have to worry. Your Uncle Cutie will take care of her, okay?"
The little girl looked at her mother and then nodded. "Mhm. Uncle Cutie and Aunt Yi Lan should take care of each other since they are living together. Mama says when we live with someone we should take care of them. Right, Mama?"
Li Xue nodded. She has taught her daughter like that. Given her the moral lessons that were needed but when teaching, she has never thought of the days and coming like this.
From the side, Feng Yi Lan could no longer take more. So, without hearing much, she straightforwardly said, "Hey, Little Chipmunk. You got it wrong, I don't sleep with your Uncle Cutie. I make the bed here on the couch while he sleeps there on the bed."
WeiWei looked at her. Her lips pulled in the pout of confusion, blinking looking in between the couch that her Aunt mentioned and then turning to look at the bed, where Qi Shuai was lying. "But Aunt Yi Lan, the bed is big enough. You can share it with Uncle Cutie. Sharing is caring and we should always care for the people around us. Shouldn't we?"
Feng Yi Lan was speechless. Maybe she was wrong to explain the sleeping arrangements to the kid. Now that she has explained, she could neither charge forward nor could retreat back. She was thinking about how to reply next when suddenly heard the man speaking instead of her.
"Hey little munchkin, do you think your Uncle Cutie will be that cruel to let your Aunt sleep congested on that small couch? She prepares her bed there but always ends up sleeping next to me. Don't worry, with me around your Aunt will never be treated unfairly" Qi Shuai said with a usual smile, making Yi Lan's eyes widen in front.
"You …"
Before Feng Yi Lan could proceed with her words, WeiWei praised her cutie uncle first, unintentionally killing her Aunt's words in the middle. "Uncle Cutie is really nice and sweet. I believe him."
Qi Shuai and Li Xue could not help but laugh at the situation. But at the same time from the side, Qi Shuai felt a cold glare coming. His spine went rigid when he realized from where that glare could come. His eyes meekly turned to look at his friend, whose expression was giving him the warning as the woman's brother.
'Brother, are you serious? I am chasing your sister. Can you please not get so serious about such a small thing? I am just …' He thought internally, looking helplessly at Feng Shufen, but his thoughts got interrupted when he heard some steps approaching near the room.
His eyes turned to look at the door and the next second, his features turned all stern, cold and serious, realizing the person who had come was no other but one he hates the most.
