At around seven o'clock, the duty room of the hospital became lively. Doctors and nurses went to work one after another. Various inspections and medication orders were flying around.
Cheng Huanran twisted the hot water bottle to fill it with water.
Xue Ling sat listlessly aside.
Xiaohan was so frightened that she was mentally unstable. She woke up when there was the slightest noise outside.
Xue Ling held her hand and chatted with her in a low voice.
Xiaohan's eyes were red and she whispered: "Auntie, where is my father?"
"He was exhausted and fell asleep outside." Xue Ling whispered: "He fell asleep on the bench."
Xiaohan lowered his eyes and pouted aggrievedly: "Auntie, I miss my dad... I want him to talk to me."
"No." Xue Ling frowned and whispered: "He only slept for an hour or so, let him sleep a little longer."
Xiaohan choked up: "But without dad here, I can't help but be afraid."
"Idiot." Xue Ling coaxed with a smile: "Auntie is with you, dad is protecting you outside, and cousin Ranran is there, why do you need to be afraid? The bad guys have been arrested by the police, and they will not and dare not hurt you again.
.This is a hospital, the largest hospital in the imperial capital. There are doctors and nurses outside, and they are all protecting your body. There are security guards guarding every door of the hospital, and we will not let anyone in danger get close."
Xiaohan twitched and whispered, "Auntie, I...I'm still very scared."
"Don't worry, don't worry." Xue Ling said: "Your mother has already returned by plane and will be able to arrive at the Imperial Capital in the evening. She will take a long vacation and will be with you all the time. Your father will also be with you all the time."
Xiaohan couldn't help but think of her mother, and she felt aggrieved and cried again.
"Why did Mommy stay away for so long? Does she not love me anymore? She hasn't sent me many messages in the past few days? Does she not want me again?"
Xue Ling frowned and asked, "Who told you that your mother doesn't want you? Your mother cares about you, so how could she be willing to let you go?"
Xiaohan picked her fingers and complained: "She hasn't been with me for a long time..."
"Adults need to make money and work." Xue Ling explained: "Your father needs to go to work, and so does your mother. If you don't make money, where will the money come from for you to go to school and live?"
Xiaohan muttered: "But dad already has a lot of money, what can he not give to mom? If dad gives her several hundred million, mom won't have to work."
"Wrong." Xue Ling said: "Even if your father is willing to give it to her, she won't take it. Even if your mother has hundreds of millions, she will still insist on working. For example, your father, who has more than a few hundred million by his side, won't
Do you have to keep working?"
Xiaohan pouted: "After all, in the eyes of you adults, money is the most important thing."
“Who said that?”
It's risky. If his investment fails, he may lose money quickly and even need to go into debt. The former richest man in Asia is still working in his nineties and has only arranged to retire in the past two years. What? Do you think he is short of money? Sometimes money
In your pocket, if you don't work hard to guard it, the money will slowly disappear, disappear in a way you can't imagine. If you can not make money, you can always ensure that you have money to spend, and future generations will have money to spend, then who will
Take the initiative to make money? Right?"
Xiaohan had no words to retort and said in a low voice: "I don't need a lot of money, and my father and mother don't actually have to work so hard to make money."
"You are wrong again." Xue Ling chuckled: "You may not have much money now, but what about the future? It won't be enough to hold on to it all the time? Your father is already over fifty, and your mother is almost fifty. They are very
They are about to enter their old age. Unless you can keep their property and raise them well, how can they dare to stop working? Xiaohan, can you raise your parents well? Are you ready to take care of your grandparents like your father?
?”
Xiaohan was stunned and turned his eyes away in embarrassment.
"Auntie, haven't you retired too? Why don't my dad and my mom retire early?"
Xue Ling replied: "I have retired, but your uncle has not been able to retire. Moreover, several of my children have begun to make money. The eldest and second eldest have graduated, and the third and fourth have begun to go to college. It won't take many years for them to be able to retire."
Can make money. Even if I get old and can no longer make money, they should still be able to support me. Xiaohan, what about you? If your parents don’t go to work to make money and stay with you every day, then you can afford to support them in the future.
Isn’t it your responsibility?”
Xiaohan was extremely embarrassed and murmured: "I... am still young, so I don't think much about it."
"You're not young anymore." Xue Ling reminded: "You will be fifteen years old soon, and you are old enough to have hair extensions. In ancient times, a girl having hair extensions meant she was an adult. You already know how to find a boyfriend on your own, so how can you still be young? You are already old enough.
Take whatever responsibilities you have to bear. Which of your cousins needs your parents to accompany you all the time? And your Yue cousin, his parents are very busy, and he has been a dormitory student at a young age.
He only goes home once a week. When he went to sleepover at school, he was a year or two younger than you are now."
Xiaohan had nothing to say in reply. It was hard to say anything else.
Xue Ling held her hand tightly and whispered: "Xiaohan, you are almost growing up. You have to learn to be more independent. You also have to learn to think about your father and mother, think more about them, and be more considerate of them."
"Oh." Xiaohan responded weakly.
Xue Ling looked at her fragile and helpless appearance, feeling a little helpless for a moment.
"What do you want to eat? I'll ask your cousin Ranran to go out and buy it."
Xiaohan thought for a while and whispered: "I want to have breakfast at XX Hotel."
"...It's too far." Xue Ling explained: "That place is more than ten kilometers away from here, and now it is the peak period of traffic jam. You can't go back and forth in less than two hours."
Xiaohan was very disappointed and murmured: "How about asking my dad to get up and buy it."
Xue Ling was secretly unhappy and said in a deep voice: "Your father's waist is uncomfortable, let him sleep a little longer."
Xiaohan curled her lips: "Dad's waist is often bad, he has always been like this."
"You -" Xue Ling frowned and asked, "You know your father's waist is uncomfortable, so why don't you think about him? Don't you feel sorry for him?"
Xiaohan was stunned and avoided her sight in embarrassment.
"I...of course I feel bad. But I'm hungry, and my favorite breakfast is at the XX Hotel. Dad has a car, so he can just drive there and buy it. It's not hard to sit in the car."
Xue Ling laughed dumbly and asked: "When you first learned to ride a bicycle, you were afraid of falling and found it too strenuous, so you stopped learning after only a few days. You can't even control a small bicycle, how can you think that you can drive a bicycle?"
How can a big car easily run on the road for two hours?”
Xiaohan hesitated and couldn't speak.
Xue Ling said: "I'll call your uncle and ask him to go to the big kitchen and pack some morning tea-type breakfast when he comes over, okay? If not, then don't eat it. Anyway, you won't be hungry if you hang the bottle."
Xiaohan's eyes were red and she murmured: "...Okay."
