‘Did you two know little Qin Song is back?’ Ji Nan asked.
Chen Yu Bai happily ate his bun and black soy milk. He nodded his head. ‘Um. Why isn’t he back at work?’
Ji Nan rubbed Cola’s head. ‘Little Qin Song’s heartbroken. I asked fifth brother about it, he knows something but doesn’t want to say.’
An Xiao Li’s hand that fed Cola the small bun piece froze… she thought about poor Mr Wild – was he heartbroken because of Qin Sang?
Ji Nan jolted when Cola was whimpering. ‘Cola?’
Chen Yu Bai glanced at the dog that intruded on him eating Xiao Li. He saw the dog was served by karma, the dog was choking on a piece of bun and threw it up and it landed in front of Xiao Li’s shoes. The dog whimpered because its stomach was hurting and its naive eyes turned to pained eyes.
Ji Nan panicked and ran to Cola. An Xiao Li put both her greasy hands up in the air. ‘It has nothing to do with me. Ji Nan asked me to feed it.’
Chen Yu Bai pulled out tissues from the coffee table and stepped toward Xiao Li. He pulled her hands closer to him and carefully wiped the grease off her hands. ‘It’s ok.’
An Xiao Li’s heart was warmed by little Bai’s sweetness.
‘I’m done eating. You can pack up my clothes. Later I’ll be leaving the hospital,’ Chen Yu Bai said calmly.
‘Why? Didn’t you say you’ll be staying back for more examinations?’ An Xiao Li asked.
An Xiao Li followed little Bai into the bathroom whilst he changed into formal wear. But no matter how she asked him, he refused to tell her why he was leaving the hospital earlier than planned.
When Rong Yan rushed to the hospital to check on Cola, Cola was already fed indigestion pills and Cola was laying on a long bench outside on the balcony. Ji Nan squatted in front of Cola and was keeping an eye on Cola’s condition.
‘Can’t you think a little more?’ Rong Yan asked. He stepped toward Ji Nan and pulled her up. He led her back into the hospital room. ‘Are you not comfortable unless you cause trouble?’
Ji Nan didn’t say anything. Rong Yan’s cranky mood after waking up was even scary for her.
Rong Yan finished scolding Ji Nan. Then Ji Nan hung her head and walked slowly back outside to the balcony. An Xiao Li was done packing Chen Yu Bai’s clothes and she joined Ji Nan out in the balcony to play with Cola.
Rong Yan stayed inside the hospital room to talk with Chen Yu Bai.
Rong Yan sat on the sofa. ‘Why are you leaving the hospital early?’
Chen Yu Bai sat on the bed and faced Rong Yan who sat on the sofa. ‘The Chu household in the western district, are you familiar with them?’
Rong Yan saw Chen Yu Bai’s angry expression and knew someone from the Chu household offended Chen Yu Bai. ‘Whether I’m familiar with them or not, doesn’t matter.’
‘Is Chu Hao Ran the darling son of the Chu household?’ Chen Yu Bai asked.
‘Um. The Chu household are littered with trouble makers. But Chu Hao Ran has good relations with many households in the western district, especially with the Zheng household. Zheng Hao is the only son in the Zheng household and has a close brotherly bond with Chu Hao Ran. Why? Did Chu Hao Ran offend you?’ Rong Yan said.
Chen Yu Bai laughed coldly.
An Xiao Li wasn’t happy to be sent with Chen Yu Bai’s assistant to fill out discharge forms. An Xiao Li wasn’t happy because she was worried Chen Yu Bai wanted to leave the hospital too early and could have a relapse.
Ji Nan was bored without An Xiao Li’s company and wandered back into the hospital room through the balcony window.
‘Let’s go visit little Qin Song. He’s back in the district but refuses to make an appearance. He said he came back to visit third brother in the hospital. Third brother, has he come to visit you?’ Ji Nan said.
Rong Yan wrinkled his forehead and pointed at Ji Nan. ‘Come down from there. Come here and sit.’
Ji Nan ran to the sofa and sat down next to Rong Yan.
Chen Yu Bai laughed. ‘Little Qin Song… I think at the moment he doesn’t want to visit me.’
‘Huh? Is he still angry at you for sending him to the Middle East?’ Ji Nan asked.
Chen Yu Bai didn’t answer. He sighed on the inside – was little Qin Song still angry at him? Even though Qin Sang didn’t like little Qin Song, but Chen Yu Bai felt he took away little Qin Song’s opportunity to pursue Qin Sang properly.
Ji Nan scratched her head. ‘It can’t be. Little Qin Song isn’t that petty. Didn’t fifth brother say that little Qin Song was heartbroken?’
Chen Yu Bai glared coldly at Ji Nan. ‘You heard wrong.’
Ji Nan was startled and turned to look at Rong Yan. Rong Yan swept her hair away from her face. ‘What are you looking at? Kids don’t need to worry. Go outside and play.’
Ji Nan was the most frustrated when Rong Yan saw her as a kid. She pushed his hand away from her face and left the room to search for An Xiao Li.
Rong Yan watched Ji Nan leave then he turned back to face Chen Yu Bai. ‘Qin Sang and little Qin Song?’
Chen Yu Bai pushed his glasses up. ‘Not exactly. Little Qin Song liked Qin Sang before Wei Ran. But Qin Sang doesn’t like little Qin Song. Do you think Qin Sang is a type of person that little Qin Song can lure?’
‘Oh? Then fifth brother can lure Qin Sang?’ Rong Yan asked.
Chen Yu Bai smiled. ‘I’m not certain. It’s just the way Qin Sang looks at Wei Ran is like the same way you look at that person. So I assume it’s possible.’
Rong Yan laughed and threw a pillow from the sofa at Chen Yu Bai. ‘Leave!’
Chen Yu Bai caught the pillow. He looked at his watch. He felt anxious and pursed his lips. ‘Are you leaving? I want to to go downstairs to see how things are.’
‘Third uncle,’ Rong Yan teased. He stood and laughed. ‘I’m not laughing at third uncle, but you have it bad. In the past you won’t like this, now the look in your eyes have changed. Who would have thought Liang’s company’s wicked guru has fallen into the hands of a little girl that has nothing special about her.’
Rong Yan put his hands into his pockets and leisurely stepped outside the hospital room like it was a beautiful day. Chen Yu Bai followed closely behind and calmly stuck out his leg. Rong Yan wasn’t paying attention, he staggered forward a few steps and nearly injured his face.
‘You don’t need to talk too much about my girl,’ Chen Yu Bai warned.
Chen Yu Bai coldly glared at Rong Yan and walked off.
Rong Yan stood behind Chen Yu Bai and patted his chest whilst mumbling curses.
