Xiao Qiu understood more than anyone else how concerned Su Jinyi was with work. When he heard that she was willing to give up on her job for him, she felt touched and embarrassed.
"Actually, you don't have to do this. "Well, thank you, my good sister!"
Before Xiao Qiu could even finish rejecting her, Su Jinyi had already locked her gaze upon her, forcing her to swallow the rest of her words. She thanked her straightforwardly, her pale face still carrying a slight smile.
Su Jinyi and Xiao Qiu looked at each other, both believing in each other's feelings. He Ruiting and Duan Yunxuan who were at the side laughed as they heard the two people's conversation. They quietly withdrew and gave them space.
Su Jinyi caressed Xiao Qiu's face and said gently: "You and I have been friends for so long, if you still talk to me about it, it's because you treat me as a stranger and not a friend. Do you know that?"
Her eyes were firm and sincere, making others unwittingly sink into her eyes. Xiao Qiu leisurely held Su Jinyi's hand, smiling widely, his eyes like crescent moons.
But after a while, he seemed to have thought of something and Xiao Qiu's mood suddenly dropped. The anxious Su Jinyi thought that she was sick and almost called for a doctor.
It turned out that Xiao Qiu had suddenly realized that she was giving birth to a son, which was very different from the beautiful, white and delicate daughter that she had imagined.
Xiao Qiu who was lying on the sickbed had a frown plastered on her face.
After knowing the reason why Xiao Qiu was disappointed, Su Jinyi also felt gloomy. The two of them had always been discussing how to dress the child, but was instead a boy.
After being silent for a while, Su Jinyi's eyes suddenly lit up as a brilliant idea flashed through her mind. "I'm fine, I heard that it's very popular to dress a little boy like a girl now!"
Speaking of places of excitement, Su Jinyi excitedly grabbed Xiao Qiu's hand. Following her explanation, fantasies started to surface in both of their minds. Xiao Qiu's face was no longer as dejected as before, but instead, her eyes were sparkling.
If the child was by his side, Duan Yunxuan, who was watching the entire scene from the side, would definitely believe that Xiao Qiu wished to attack immediately, let alone having Su Jinyi to help him.
When Xiao Qiu thought about his future mission, she could not help but think that there was still a long way to go before she and Su Jinyi started to intensely discuss it. He Ruiting and Duan Yunxuan who were listening from behind felt extremely guilty, especially Duan Yunxuan. His mind seemed to follow their words and had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
"Are you alright?" He Ruiting nudged Duan Yunxuan with his elbow, his face was filled with a playful smile.
But when he truly felt that Duan Yunxuan, this kind of soldier who wasn't afraid of the heavens or the earth, could actually shudder, the look in his eyes couldn't help but change when he looked at Su Jinyi.
Duan Yunxuan rolled his eyes at He Ruiting, and without thinking he stood up and walked to the side of Xiao Qiu's sickbed, very seriously saying that he was against it.
"No way, no way. That's the son I'm going to raise into a man in the future. How can he do something so gaudy?"
Xiao Qiu, whose pale face had finally eased up a little with great difficulty, directly ignored his opinion and continued to chat with Su Jinyi about dressing up her son.
Seeing that his own son was about to be disguised as a girl, Duan Yunxuan subconsciously shook his head. He looked at Xiao Qiu, feeling wronged: "Xiao Qiu, why don't you think about it more carefully, what if your son doesn't like it?"
With a sullen face, Duan Yunxuan couldn't wait to let his son speak. This way, he wouldn't have to face the dark and historical situation that he himself had to face in the future.
Unfortunately, under Su Jinyi's help, not only did Xiao Qiu not end up being deceived by Duan Yunxuan's pitiful face like usual, she was even able to play the trick. The expression on his face slowly changed, and there were some tears that seemed to fall but did not fall.
"Xiao Qiu, are you alright? Don't scare me, I promise you whatever you want to do. Don't be in such a hurry!"
Duan Yunxuan had already completely lost his rationality, so he didn't care about anything due to his nervousness, let alone trying to differentiate whether Xiao Qiu was truly uncomfortable or not.
Seeing Duan Yunxuan being so anxious, Xiao Qiu felt slightly embarrassed. He felt extremely guilty, and just as he was about to collapse, he heard agree to anything. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief and recovered.
Even her pale white face was brimming with a happy smile, as she and Su Jinyi secretly looked at each other, full of satisfaction.
Duan Yunxuan, who had seen all of this, sighed in his heart. When he thought about how his son was about to suffer, he could only mourn silently.
Su Jinyi happily smiled at Xiao Qiu. In the eyes of Duan Yunxuan and He Ruiting, they were also infected by their happiness. At that time, everyone in the ward was laughing happily.
"You're leaving now. Pay attention to your safety."
"Thank you for your hard work tomorrow, take your time."
He Ruiting and Su Jinyi did not waste too much time, after all, no matter how spirited Xiao Qiu was, she had only just finished producing it. After Duan Yunxuan and Xiao Qiu gave their instructions, the two drove home.
At night, the streets were still filled with people. There was an endless flow of people and traffic. Su Jinyi was a little tired, lazily leaning on the chair, looking a little lonely.
He Ruiting stared fixedly at the road in front of him, and glanced at her appearance occasionally from the corner of his eyes, his heart faintly guessing that this was definitely related to him temporarily being unable to go to work.
"Still thinking about working. Are you in a bad mood or are you regretting it?" Accompanied by the melodious light music coming from the carriage, He Ruiting asked.
When Su Jinyi heard this, she only tilted her head slightly and looked at He Ruiting who was driving the car. She did not immediately reply, and only after a long while did she softly voice out her thoughts.
She just regretted not being able to go to work. It would be a waste of this opportunity. After all, it was very rare. But in order to take care of Xiao Qiu, she had nothing to regret.
After his heart had been revealed, the one who had been silent was actually He Ruiting. In fact, he wished even more that Su Jinyi wouldn't go to work. This was also why he had suggested for Su Jinyi to take care of Xiao Qiu.
Currently, Fang Yuesheng was still very dangerous, especially under the current circumstances, his safety had to be strengthened. The only thing He Ruiting was worried about was whether or not he had a way to protect her completely. He could only reduce the chance she had to meet Fang Yuesheng's people.
"Don't worry, why are you thinking so much. You can go to work when Xiao Qiu is better, I've been waiting for you there." He Ruiting comforted Su Jinyi as he patted her hands. There was something strange in her eyes, and she could only comfort her like this.
