I feel that no matter what, Liu Honghai will not agree to let his mother raise this child.

"Fine, Mom will promise you that I won't send her to the orphanage." As I spoke, I took the child from my mother.

Liu Ruyi was still sitting on the sofa, talking to Lin Yufan in a flirtatious tone, "Boss Lin, you've understood. Do you think our family can raise this child?"

"Ah …" "True …" Lin Yufan answered with a simple "En".

"Boss Lin, let's go!" I hugged my child as I spoke to Lin Yufan.

Lin Yufan stood up and picked up the car keys from the table.

"Boss Lin, please sit for a while." Liu Ruyi was still reluctant to part with Lin Yufan. Lin Yufan simply said, "Goodbye," and followed me out of the house.

His mother followed him from behind. "Eight o'clock!"

"Mom." I looked at my mother, knowing she was worried.

"Eight o'clock. These few days, the two of us have been nursing this child in the hospital. Somehow, it reminded me of when you were young. You know, at that time, your grandfather always wanted to secretly throw you away. I looked at you as if I was looking at my own life, and I've finally raised you. Now this child … You said it wasn't easy... " "I was just thinking that I must have done something bad in my previous life that would cause you to suffer so much in your current life. Therefore, I wanted to do a good thing and raise this child. It's kind of a good deed, but …"

Mother's words made my heart ache.

"Mom, don't think too much." I wanted to say, "Everyone has their own destiny," but when I thought about it, my mother couldn't sleep anymore, so I changed the subject. "Mom, I'm taking the baby to the hospital first."

My mother looked at me and nodded. She took out a small wad of money, hundreds of dollars, and stuffed it into my pocket.

"Yes." I promised my mother and got into the car with Lin Yufan.

Lin Yufan sat in the car and looked back at me.

The child lay in my arms and slept quietly.

"Eight o'clock, what are you going to do with this child?" Lin Yufan looked at me and frowned slightly.

"I know I shouldn't have raised her, but …"

"You can't bring yourself to send her to kindergarten, can you?" Lin Yufan looked at me and asked.

I looked at the child and nodded.

Lin Yufan looked at me and sighed softly. "Let's treat the child first."

Thus, Lin Yufan drove me and my child to the hospital.

"I'm sorry for delaying you for so long, but it's already too late. Hurry up and go back." I looked at Lin Yufan as I said this, feeling quite uneasy in my heart.

"I also don't feel at ease if you have a child that has never been with you before and a person that has taken the child to see a doctor in the middle of the night. "Alright, I'll go with you." As Lin Yufan spoke, he locked the car door and followed me to the hospital's lobby.

I felt uneasy.

The child's small face was red. I touched my forehead and it started to heat up again.

I hurried into the hall, not caring much.

Lin Yufan registered and took me and the child to the doctor. After a series of tests and the doctor's diagnosis, the child's pneumonia repeated itself, allowing the patient to continue being hospitalized.

Just like this, Lin Yufan and I entered the ward with the child. The doctor mistook us for the child's parents. I explained it a few times, but there were still doctors who misunderstood.

Lin Yufan looked at me and smiled, "Are you in trouble?"

I looked at Lin Yufan and let out a bitter laugh.

I want to go to the washroom. When I come back, I'll let Lin Yufan go home.

But when I went to the washroom in a hurry, I saw Gu Yifei walking towards me on the way back …

My heart thumped.

I tried to pretend I hadn't seen her, to avoid her in silence.

But Gu Yifei saw me. "Why are you here?"

Gu Yifei asked in bewilderment as he looked around.

I didn't want to say that the child was hospitalized here, so I hesitated and said, "Someone's in the hospital. I'll take care of the patient."

"Oh, then do me a favor and help me bring my friends in!" As Gu Yifei spoke, I noticed that her forehead was covered in sweat.

"Alright." I agreed and followed Gu Yifei out.

On the passenger seat, a man in his thirties was sprawled out in pain.

Gu Yifei said something to him, and the man placed his hand on Gu Yifei's shoulder.

"Eight o'clock, hold him. His leg has been hit. Be careful!" Gu Yifei said as he struggled to drive the man, while I hurried over to support him from the other side.

"Fei Fei, you can leave." The man, who was being held by Gu Yifei, furrowed his brows in pain as he spoke with some difficulty.

"No, I'll settle you down first." Gu Yifei said, and couldn't help raising his head to look at me. "Ah, this is my cousin."

"Ah …" I nodded my head. Actually, I wasn't interested in who this person was. My concern was that Lin Yufan was also here, so it wouldn't be good if Gu Yifei found out.

Gu Yifei and I were carrying the man. When the nurse saw us, she had already pushed the stretcher over, allowing the man to lie down on it. Then a male doctor came over and pushed the man away.

"Alright, go and take care of the patient." Gu Yifei waved at me to go back.

"Alright." I agreed, secretly glad that I didn't see Lin Yufan. But just as I was about to turn around, I heard Lin Yufan call out to me, "Eight o'clock, what took you so long? Are you alright?"

My heart rose to my throat, and I couldn't help but glance at Gu Yifei.

Almost at the same time, Gu Yifei also saw Lin Yufan. "Yufan, why are you here?!"

"Ah, it's fine. Isn't it still that child? I brought her to see a doctor at eight o'clock. I brought her along with me." Lin Yufan looked at Gu Yifei and said calmly.

Lin Yufan was able to remain calm, but my heart was stuck in my throat.

Gu Yifei had clearly 'taught' me a lesson over this matter, preventing me from having any contact with Lin Yufan other than work. Sigh.

"Oh …" Gu Yifei looked at me with a puzzled expression. "Ah, my cousin was hit by a car. I saw it and sent him to the hospital."

"Oh, then I'll go with you and take a look." Lin Yufan looked at Gu Yifei, who was shaking his head like a rattle drum. "No need, my cousin and the others will be here soon …" "Ah, you've been busy all day, so go home and rest. There are still a lot of things to do tomorrow."

"It's okay, your cousin got hit. I'm here, it's not appropriate for me to not go. I'll go take a look with you." "Eight o'clock, wait for me for a moment." Lin Yufan asked Gu Yifei to take her there.

I thought about how I was an unnecessary person here. I even felt that if I appeared in front of Gu Yifei for even a second longer, I would feel an indescribable hatred.

I hurried back to the ward, thirty-six steps ahead of me.
