Ming Ansheng dashed out of the house in less than a minute .
He didn’t drive and ran towards Su Yue instead . He carried Xiaojiao from Su Yue .
Su Yue anxiously asked, “Uncle Ming, you don’t have a car?”
“The chauffeur will be here soon . ”
Ming Ansheng had barely finished his sentence when they were hit by a strong beam of light . A black car was driving towards them .
Ming Ansheng and Su Yue darted forward at the same time .
Su Yue opened the door for Ming Ansheng and he got in with Xiaojiao . Su Yue scrambled in quickly and told her helper . “Aunty, go back and change your clothes . I’ll take care of her . ”
With Ming Ansheng around, she didn’t need to trouble her old helper .
In the hospital…
The doctor informed them that Xiaojiao had acute appendicitis . From what Su Yue had described, it may have been caused by a mixture of food that she had eaten .
Xiaojiao was weak and pale from the excruciating pain . She lay in bed in her pajamas, looking lifeless .
Su Yue’s heart was aching for her and she felt as though the poor girl had lost weight .
She softly and lightly caressed Xiaojiao’s cheeks with her palms .
“Mommy, I want water . ” Su Xiaojiao suddenly licked her lips .
Ming Ansheng responded immediately and stood up . “I’ll get you some . ”
He was already at the water dispenser .
He turned around and took a sip to test the temperature of the water .
He put the cup to Xiaojiao’s mouth and tilted the cup . “Darling, drink it . ”
Ming Ansheng put an arm behind Xiaojiao’s back and carried her up a little .
His actions were so careful .
Xiaojiao finished the entire cup and some water trickled down her chin . Ming Ansheng placed the cup down and dabbed her chin with tissues .
Xiaojiao was still pale as she smiled weakly . “Thank you, lying Uncle . ”
She raised her head and gazed at Ming Ansheng . To Ming Ansheng, her clear and bright eyes were the purest thing on earth .
He couldn’t help but kiss her on her forehead . “Darling, are you still in pain?”
Xiaojiao shook her head .
They looked so close and intimate . Su Yue watched them quietly and pressed her lips .
“Sleep for a while . ” Ming Ansheng withdrew his arm and covered her with the blanket .
He patted her chest gently .
He crouched and moved closer to Xiaojiao, with his eyes fixed on the girl’s face . His expression was so affectionate and gentle .
When would his darling daughter call him Daddy?
“Mmm . ” Su Xiaojiao nodded and obediently closed her eyes .
Soon, her breathing became regular and deep .
Just when Ming Ansheng thought that she had fallen asleep, Xiaojiao suddenly flipped over . She pulled his arm and snuggled against him . “Daddy, I want a story . Xiaojiao wants little mermaid . ”
Su Yue and Ming Ansheng were both stunned .
Although he knew that she was calling for Jiao Chen and that she was sleepy, he still felt moved and excited .
He didn’t even mind being a substitute because of his intense longing .
