It seemed as if Zhou Shuang had no intention of spending the rest of her life with him .
She had been planning to leave all along .
Lu Yinan entered a deep reverie with the cigarette in his hand . When the last bit of his cigarette burned his hand, he instinctively released it and it fell to the floor .
He bent at the floor and hastily picked it up . He snuffed it out before throwing it into the ashtray .
Whenever he was in a bad mood, time seemed to crawl .
It felt like hours to Lu Yinan since he left Jiaojiao’s ward . But a glance at his watch told him otherwise . It was barely 11 p . m .
‘Knock, knock, knock . ’
Someone knocked on the door .
He cast his thoughts aside and responded . “Enter . ”
It was the nurse on duty . “Doctor Lu, there is an emergency case . ”
And the next second, Lu Yinan heard a scream of agonizing pain . It belonged to a child .
A woman came in with a boy who looked like he was about 10 years old . The boy was tottering unsteadily .
He pressed his tummy with his hand, and he was pale . He looked as though he was in great pain .
Lu Yinan diverted all his attention to this boy and pulled a chair for him . He began his diagnosis .
“Is it painful here?”
He pressed the boy’s tummy with his finger .
The boy winced and nodded . “Painful . ”
“If I don’t press it?” Lu Yinan withdrew his hand .
The boy grimaced with pain and replied, “It is still painful . ”
Lu Yinan stretched his hand and pressed another part of his tummy . “How about this part?”
“Ouch…” The boy cried out in pain . “It’s painful!”
He pushed away Lu Yinan’s hand and twisted his body in discomfort .
Lu Yinan glanced at the boy and said, “It really seems painful . It’s painful enough for a brave boy to cry . ”
The boy stopped his wails immediately and gazed at Lu Yinan . “I didn’t cry . Who says I’m crying?”
He used his sleeve to wipe his tears .
Lu Yinan smiled and said, “Sorry, my mistake . That was sweat . ”
The boy snorted loudly . “I’m not afraid of pain . I’m a brave boy . ”
Lu Yinan grinned . “Then surely you wouldn’t be afraid of injections . ”
“Certainly… I’m not . ” The boy revealed his fear but he still pretended otherwise .
“You’re the most courageous boy I’ve ever met . ” Lu Yinan stroked the boy’s head .
The boy smiled proudly .
And gradually, his fear and anxiety vanished .
Lu Yinan gave his mother a prescription and instructed her, “He ate too much and he had indigestion . It’s not very serious . He will be fine after an injection . ”
The woman thanked Lu Yinan and supported the boy by holding his arm .
“Mommy, Daddy said that the boy is the most courageous child he had ever met . Am I not courageous?”
Jiaojiao was disappointed and sad when she overheard Lu Yinan .
She always thought that she was really brave . She never cried when she needed an injection .
But why didn’t Daddy praise her?
She pursed her lips and Zhou Shuang could see right through her . She gently stroked her hair and smiled . “Jiaojiao is very brave . Daddy is just encouraging the boy since he was crying . ”
