After school was out, Yi Lan took Wang Xiaoman to Yuan Hui's residential area. After opening the door with her key, she said, "Come in, my mom is still working."
"Alright." Wang Xiaoman entered the house. She looked at the bright and neat decorated house, and the faint fragrance of the simple yet elegant house made her somewhat timid. Could she really live here?
"Here, give me your slippers." She took the slippers and asked Wang Xiaoman to change into them. "Let me show you to your room."
"Alright." Wang Xiaoman nodded.
"Take off your school bag first." After taking off her schoolbag, she took off Wang Xiaoman's bag, "Come, this is the kitchen."
From Wang Xiaoman's point of view, this simple room could almost be considered a mansion. A long time ago, she had imagined that she could live in a house like this with her mother. It was simple, clean, and had an elevator.
"This is the bedroom I used to sleep in. From now on, you and Aunt Chi will live in this room. It's a double bed. If you're not used to having a single bed, you can put it down."
"Yes, yes." Wang Xiaoman looked at Xi Yang's room and nodded, "You You You, I really have to thank you! "Thank you, thank you!"
"What's the point of thanking me? See if you like it or not. If you think it's okay, then just give Aunt Chi a call." Seeing how happy Wang Xiaoman was, she also laughed.
"Right." Wang Xiaoman felt her hand was shaking. She took out her little phone and called Chi Yue and told him about this. But after hanging up, Wang Xiaoman's excitement disappeared.
"What's wrong?" Yi Lan asked Wang Xiaoman.
Eh …" "My mom said that she could borrow money, and that we shouldn't trouble Aunt Yuan like this. She asked me to thank you and Aunt Yuan's good intentions on her behalf …" Wang Xiaoman smiled in disappointment, "Let's go.
"…" Although Ilan could understand Chi Yue's actions, he didn't agree. Why was it troublesome now? Who didn't feel sad? However, she had no choice but to sigh. "It's true …" Xiao Man, you must remember to advise Aunt Chi when you return. "
"Right." Wang Xiaoman nodded. She reluctantly looked around the house. She really liked it here …
"Let's go eat something." "This attachment has a self-service hotpot," Ilan suggested. "It's not bad and the price is not expensive." By now, they were probably still playing in the amusement park. She didn't plan to go home to eat, so she decided to take a bite out of the house. "I'll treat you."
"No, I have to go to the cram school." Wang Xiaoman's tone was full of disappointment, but she still pulled out a sincere smile and pulled at Ilan's hand. "You You You, thank you so much."
"Why are you thanking me?" She couldn't help but think back to her previous life. At that time, she intentionally kept her distance from Wang Xiaoman. She didn't know how Wang Xiaoman and her daughter managed to survive this crisis. They must have suffered a lot.
"Let's go." Wang Xiaoman carried her schoolbag on her back.
"Right." The two of them locked the door and went downstairs in the elevator. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, the two of them started talking and laughing again.
"Um, you must be that Yuan Hui's daughter upstairs, right?" At this time, a middle-aged man came out of the pharmacy. He seemed to have seen Yuan Hui and the girl walk together, and he had also heard that Yuan Hui had a daughter who was studying at the No.1 Middle School.
"Right." "Mm." Ilan nodded at the middle-aged man.
"Did you come to see your mother?" The man said, "Your mother is not at home. She had an acute appendicitis attack last night and fainted when she came to the pharmacy to buy medicine. She was pulled down to the hospital by an ambulance."
"What did you say?"
The man repeated what he had just said and told Ilan the number of the ward door.
"Thank you, thank you." After thanking her several times, she immediately left the district and took a taxi to the hospital. Wang Xiaoman accompanied her and comforted her, "It's okay, appendectomy is not a big deal. Auntie Yuan will definitely be fine."
"Right." Although she didn't say anything, her hands were clenched into fists. She should have sensed that something was amiss when the phone was switched off last night. Why did I go to sleep? Intense remorse welled up in her heart. She felt more and more uneasy.
When they arrived at the hospital, Yi Lanyou rushed to the ward with Wang Xiaoman. When she opened the door, she saw Yuan Hui sleeping soundly under the covers. She was sitting on a chair, with her head down and her eyes closed, as if she was asleep as well.
The scene was so serene and beautiful that Ilan was stunned for a moment. Then he walked forward and gently pushed the sleeping Ihoun. "Father?"
"Eh?" Ihoun woke up. He felt a numbing pain on the back of his neck, and after moving around a few times, he asked, "Lan You, why are you here?"
"I heard from the district's pharmacy manager that my mom was hospitalized, so I rushed over." Ilan looked at Yuan Hui who was lying on the sickbed. She frowned slightly and sighed.
"Your mother didn't want to tell you." "You don't have to worry too much. She's doing quite well. She ate a bowl of mushroom and vegetable porridge at noon."
"Right." It was good to be able to eat. Being sick and staying in the hospital was one of the biggest worries of the patients. They couldn't eat and could not ingest nutrition.
"Dad, you …" "Are you here all afternoon?" she asked.
"Right." Yuan Hui nodded. After he fell asleep in the afternoon, he had also fallen asleep for some reason, and had fallen asleep until now.
"Then …" "Where are Ariel and Auntie?" Aren't we going to the amusement park together?
"…" Yes, how could he have forgotten that? Wouldn't that mean that Yi Rui and Fang Fang Fang had been waiting for him all afternoon? A sense of guilt welled up in his heart. He looked at Yuan Hui again, and seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he said to Ilan, "You stay here with your mother. I'm leaving first."
"Alright." "You can go back to your own business."
"Right." "Yes." He nodded to Wang Xiaoman, who was standing beside her, before leaving in a hurry.
As soon as he left, the smile on Ilan's face was revealed, "Haha."
"You You, what are you laughing about?" Wang Xiaoman asked.
"Me?" The smile on Ilan's face slowly disappeared as he said, "I'm laughing because God has eyes."
