Chapter 49.2: Do Bad Things (2)

Ji Qingying was speechless while her hands were hooked around his neck.

"Who doesn't want to be responsible?"

She smiled. Im just afraid that youll get rid of me after you meet my Grandma.

She looked at him straight and warned, My grandmother is fierce.

If anyone dared bully her, Grandma was always there to settle the debt.

Fu Yanzhi replied, Yes. He then pinched the soft flesh of her earlobe as he gazed down at her.

"That's exactly right."

Ji Qingying pulled a face.

He kissed her and said, This makes me want to bully you.

Ji Qingying tried to look stern, but couldnt help but laugh at his shenanigans.

She then completely surrendered to his warm embrace with indescribably satisfaction.

How can this man make me feel this secure?

After a long afternoon at home, the two went out on a dinner date.

After eating dinner at a restaurant Ji Qingying was hyped about, Fu Yanzhi took her to see a movie.

She loved this plain yet warm life.

Ji Qingying was not the type to long for an epic love story. She cherishes both the special events and the everyday goings on just the same.

For her, the important thing is who she is with. As long as she was with Fu Yanzhi, nothing was ever boring.

The following day, Fu Yanzhi went off to work as normal.

Ji Qingying was also very busy. By the third round of the competition, she was supposed to bring in assistants. She could pick Rong Xue, Xiao Shuang, or the others.

After much thought, she first dialed Rong Xue to invite her.

Rong Xue and Xiao Shuang could already be considered her assistants, but each had something distinct about them.

Although Xiao Shuang did not go to university, nor was she properly trained in fashion design, she was very skilled with her hands. She knew various types of embroidery techniques, and can even do Shu, Xiang, and Su embroideries.

This was her talent. She only needs to see something a few times, practice a bit, and shell very quickly master it.

On the other hand, although Rong Xue had only graduated college a little over a year ago, shes very knowledgeable on the current fashion trends, not to mention her ideas and vision are also quite unique. The interaction between her and Ji Qingying always ends up fruitful. Having her is always helpful.#[email protected]

In other words, each had their own strengths.

Ji Qingying hung up the phone.

As soon as she did, she received a text message from an unknown number.

It was sent by Zhou Zhilan, saying she wanted to talk.

Ji Qingying took her time to carefully consider, but she decided not to reply in the end.

She didnt think there was anything they could talk about anyway.

After returning home, Ji Qingying checked the time. It was almost time for Fu Yanzhi to get off work.

She turned and looked at the sky. After thinking a bit, Ji Qingying went into her room to change.

She was going to pick up Fu Yanzhi from work.

The hospitals were a lot emptier in the afternoons compared to mornings.

As soon as Ji Qingying entered the hospital, she saw Xiao Meng in the lobby.

She was slightly surprised. Before she could say hi to her, Xiao Meng had also noticed her.

Xiao Mengs face looked worse than the last time she saw her.

"Beautiful sister."

Xiao Meng ran straight towards her.

Ji Qingyang greeted her with a smile and opened her arms to hug her. Xiao Meng.

She leaned in close to tightly embrace Xiao Meng. Tenderly, she said, Long time no see.

Xiao Meng nodded. She laughed, showing her two pear-shaped dimples. She was sporting two pigtails, which made her look vivid and lively.

She looked at Ji Qingying, Yes, Ive been discharged from the hospital.

Then why are you here alone, Ji Qingying nodded while looking around.

Um Xiao Meng answered a bit hesitantly, fidgeting with the balloon she had. Mom and Brother Doctor wanted to talk so they told me to play here alone.

Ji Qingying frowned, but softly asked, Are you here for a checkup today?

Yes.

Xiao Meng smiled and said, Sister, did you come to find Brother Doctor today?

Yes.

Xiao Meng grinned at the reply and pointed up the stairs, Brother Doctor is still up there, but hell definitely come down soon.

She looked at Ji Qingying and whispered, Big Sis, will you play with me in the meantime?

Before Ji Qingying could reply, Xiao Meng muttered, I have no friends. No one wants to play with me.

Ji Qingying was stunned and felt her heart ache.

She looked at Xiao Meng. She reminded her of a certain child from so many years ago.

Shes the same.

That child was said to be a bad omen, that everyone, even her parents, did like to play with her.

Her only source of entertainment was to follow her grandmother to her shop and listen to her stories about each cheongsam she made.#[email protected]

Big sister?

Big sister!

Ji Qingying woke up from her daydream. She looked down at the small hand holding her, and whispered, Okay, little sister. Ill play. So what do you want to do?

Xiao Meng thought about it carefully. Suddenly, with eyes alight, she said, How about a clapping game?!

Ji Qingying smiled, Okay, but this big sister doesn't know how to play. How about Xiao Meng teach me?

Mm-hmm.

Fu Yanzhi and Xiao Mengs mother were still chatting while they came down the stairs. When they got down to the hospital lobby, they were able to see a scene unfold not so far away.

Fu Yanzhis eyes twitched as he saw what was happening.

Xiao Mengs mother was astonished as well. While looking at the two people playing over there, her gaze became fixed on Xiao Mengs beaming smile. She couldnt help but sigh with her expression darkening at the sound of her daughters clear laughter. Its been a really long time since Ive seen her so happy.

Fu Yanzhi remained silent, only replying, Hmm.

Xiao Mengs mother pondered deeply before asking softly, Dr. Fu, are you certain the procedure will be successful?

Fu Yanzhi hesitated a little bit, only replying, We will do our best.

No doctor could ever give a 100% guarantee during surgery.

Even if they were the foremost expert in their field, no one could predict what would happen during a surgery.

Xiao Mengs mother nodded slowly, a hard expression appearing on her face. Well go and think about it.

Isnt she doing well now? she asked softly.

Fu Yanzhi looked at her and advised her seriously, Please consider it. It is her best shot.

Xiao Mengs nodded and replied with a heavy tone, Yes, I understand.

We will think about it.

Okay. Fu Yanzhi said, Lets go to them, shall we?

After the mother-daughter pair left, Ji Qingying looked at the man standing beside her, still in his white coat.

When their eyes met, her gaze contained undeniable admiration.

Fu Yanzhi lowered his head and asked, What?
