“Make a call.”
“Isn’t it a waste of money to deduct phone fees when calling?” Fang Yusheng loved money a lot. When he could send WeChat messages, he definitely would not call. It was a little abnormal today. Although Qiao Jiusheng had already said so, Fang Yusheng still deleted his WeChat.
Something was amiss!
Qiao Jiusheng thought for a long time but could not guess what had happened today, causing her to take out her phone and look through the records again. After confirming that she had not said anything wrong, Qiao Jiusheng felt relieved and even more puzzled. Why was Fang Yusheng so angry?
…
Dai Chukong had been crying ever since she heard from Fang Yusheng that Qi Bufan was still unconscious.
When she rode the scooter back to the dormitory, the cold wind blew past her face. Her tears slid down her face, making her feel cold. When she reached the dormitory building, Dai Chukong did not even lock the scooter and ran upstairs.
She fell onto the bed and cried in despair for a while.
She actually cried until she fell asleep.
When she woke up again, it was already dark outside.
There were a total of six girls living in the dormitory. Other than a girl called Liu Wei who had returned, the rest were not there. Among the other four people, one was working part-time at a nightclub and the other had moved out to rent a room with her boyfriend. The other two had gone to rooms with their boyfriends.
In the past, Liu Wei would usually come back late at night, but recently, she had changed. She no longer went out to have fun and had become a homebody. It was not that she suddenly had the desire to improve and wanted to study seriously, but because she had fallen out of love and was no longer interested in going out.
Seeing that Dai Chukong had finally woken up, Liu Wei moved her gaze away from the game interface on the computer and finally sat near Dai Chukong.
......
“You’re finally awake.”
Dai Chukong did not know what time Liu Wei returned to the dormitory. As she put on her shoes, she asked Liu Wei, “When did you come back?”
Liu Wei said, “At seven o’clock.”
Dai Chukong’s movements slowed down, but in the next second, she returned to normal. Dai Chukong put on her shoes, took off her sponge towel, and planned to take a shower. As she washed her face, her voice came from the bathroom. “What time is it now?”
“It’s almost ten.”
Then she had slept for a long time…
After washing her face and brushing her teeth, Dai Chukong walked to the closet door, took off her clothes, and changed into a clean set of clothes. Liu Wei was a little surprised to see Dai Chukong change her clothes. “It’s already so late. Are you still going out?”
“Yes.”
Liu Wei’s eyes flashed, and her eyes burned with interest.
“Don’t tell me you’re in a relationship and are going to find oyur boyfriend?” Ever since she had fallen out of love, Liu Wei’s eyes were slanted when she looked at those in a relationship now. Her tone was also strange.
Dai Chukong zipped the down jacket up to her neck forcefully. She turned around and looked at Liu Wei. Her eyes narrowed, and the expression on her face was as cold as Liu Wei had ever seen.
Liu Wei’s heart skipped a beat. She was a little afraid of Dai Chukong.
Liu Wei’s eyes sparkled and she did not dare to look at Dai Chukong again.
Dai Chukong let out an inexplicable snort, closed the cabinet door, locked it, and left with her bag. Just as she closed the dormitory door, she heard Liu Wei’s scolding coming from inside the room. “What are you being so arrogant for? Who do you think you are cleaner than? You are running out to find someone in the middle of the night. I’m afraid you are going to do something unspeakable…”
Dai Chukong’s temples throbbed and she wanted to hit someone.
However, she was eager to find Qi Bufan, so she ignored Liu Wei.
…
Late at night, there was almost no one at the entrance of the Deep Sea Hospital. However, a few people could be vaguely seen moving in the emergency building.
Dai Chukong went straight to the hospital building. She first looked at the signs and found the Cardiovascular Surgery Department before taking the elevator upstairs. The Cardiovascular Surgery Department’s inpatient department was relatively quiet. Dai Chukong walked along the long corridor, her shoes making a tapping sound on the floor that were as loud as her heartbeat.
There was always a special smell in the hospital. This smell made one’s heart feel heavy.
Dai Chukong found Qi Bufan’s ward.
There was someone in the ward. It was a man whom Dai Chukong did not know. Dai Chukong had just stood at the door for a few seconds when the person who was dozing off suddenly looked up. The moment he looked up, his sharp gaze shot towards the door.
This should be a very alert man.
Dai Chukong guessed this person’s occupation almost instantly.
She took a deep breath and knocked.
The man inside stood up. He was very tall. Under his black crew cut, his sharp eyes were fierce when he looked at people, like a wild beast. The man stood at the door and was not in a hurry to open the door. Instead, he asked warily, “Who are you?”
Dai Chukong replied, “Hello, I’m looking for Qi Bufan.”
“Who are you to him?”
If Dai Chukong did not say her name, Lang Zhan would not let her in.
Taking a light breath, Dai Chukong said, “I’m his… foster daughter.” At this moment, Dai Chukong felt terrible. Outside, she would always be Qi Bufan’s foster daughter…
Lang Zhan was stunned.
Adopted daughter?
Only then did he open the door.
Lang Zhan was not in a hurry to let Dai Chukong in. Instead, he stood in the middle of the door and sized her up. The girl in front of him was wearing a black down jacket with a white turtleneck sweater inside. She was wearing light blue jeans and a pair of flat white sneakers.
This was the most common outfit on the streets.
However, the owner of this outfit had a very innocent face.
Lang Zhan retracted his gaze.
Under Dai Chukong’s puzzled and uneasy gaze, a faint smile slowly curled up on Lang Zhan’s face. The man’s smile did not become gentle. Instead, it gave off a strange feeling.
When Dai Chukong saw Lang Zhan’s smile, her back turned cold.
Lang Zhan knew that his smile was not amiable, so he gave up. He returned to normal and said to Dai Chukong, “You’re Chukong?”
Dai Chukong was stunned.
He knew her?
When she realized that this person might be friends with Qi Bufan, it was not surprising that he knew him. Dai Chukong nodded, but Lang Zhan’s next sentence stunned Dai Chukong.
Lang Zhan said, “It’s been many years. The last time we met, you were only as tall as my chest. You’ve grown up. Girls really change when they grow up. You’re getting prettier. If Boss Dai was still alive, he would really see you…”
Lang Zhan sighed and said, “Thankfully, you have Old Qi. He has raised you well all these years.” Lang Zhan wanted to express his opinion on Qi Bufan adopting Dai Chukong, but when he opened his mouth, he felt speechless.
In the end, Lang Zhan only said, “It hasn’t been easy for him all these years.”
Dai Chukong understood the deeper meaning behind Lang Zhan’s words.
“You’re my father’s comrade?”
Lang Zhan raised his eyebrows and said, “Yes.” He leaned against the door, crossed his arms, and teased Dai Chukong. “Girl, call me Uncle.”
