Chapter 560: Chapter 559: 559, take Xiaobai back to the hospital for an IV.

The next morning, Mo Weiyi found it difficult to wake up.

Lishui Bay, located in the center of Nancheng City was a strict residential area, where no one set off fireworks or firecrackers overnight. Besides, the bedroom was well-insulated, and with the thick curtains, she could sleep deeply.

Still, she felt a backache, and her eyelids were dreadfully heavy. Clearly, she was severely sleep-deprived.

She squirmed slightly in her down quilt, with her eyes still shut, and reached out her hand.

The bedding next to her was cold.

Mo Weiyi was startled and suddenly opened her eyes.

She found the space beside her empty.

Did Xiaobai leave?

Looking at the time, it was just past eight in the morning.

Did he go back to the hospital so early?

And he didn’t even inform her?

Mo Weiyi picked up the cellphone from the bedside table and dialed Xiao Yebai’s number.

“I’m sorry, the number you dialed has been switched off.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

She put down the phone.

What was this man doing….

She moved, feeling an acid tinge.

So was the previous night just like a dream?

And upon waking, there was no one.

This feeling was quite strange.

Mo Weiyi couldn’t help but overthink.

Was she the only one left in the villa now?

On the morning of the first day of the lunar new year?

Suddenly, she opened her mouth and shouted, “Xiaobai, come out!”

The room was silent.

Mo Weiyi wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, staring at the ceiling in a daze for a while, until a pattering of footsteps was heard. Then, the bedroom door was opened, and a man’s figure appeared in her sight.

Mo Weiyi was startled, immediately sitting upright.

Xiao Yebai looked at her. His gaze was calm, and in his hand, he held a dish. Steaming hot and aromatic.

“Xiaobai, you…” Mo Weiyi said. Her black and white cat eyes looked innocently round, she seemed baffled.

Xiao Yebai simply walked over.

He looked every bit like a domestic gentleman.

In the white porcelain plate he carried were steaming hot dumplings fresh from the pot.

Mo Weiyi couldn’t help but swallow. “What’s this?”

“Pork and pickles dumplings.”

“Of course, I know it’s dumplings, I’m asking where it’s from.”

As expected, Xiao Yebai casually replied, “Rong An brought it.”

Rong An?

Mo Weiyi blinked her beautiful cat eyes. “Where is he?”

“He’s left.” Said Xiao Yebai, holding a chopstick in his fair hand, he picked up a plump dumpling and held it to her mouth.

Mo Weiyi opened her mouth and bit off half of it. As she ate, she blinked and asked, “Why is your phone off?”

Xiao Yebai responded in a nonchalant tone, “I must have forgotten to charge it.”

“Oh, I woke up just now, I thought you were gone.” Mo Weiyi said in a somewhat whiny tone. Her voice soft and alluring. “I almost thought I was just having a wet dream last night.”

Xiao Yebai looked at her.

After both of them had taken a shower last night, they had put on pajamas. Mo Weiyi was in a light purple nightdress, coupled with her slightly messy shoulder-length curly hair, her small face, not dabbed with makeup, but still delicate and beautiful, looking pitiful.

He picked up the chopsticks and stuffed the remaining half of the dumpling into her mouth.

Feeding her one after another, Mo Weiyi eventually reacted, “Then what are you going to eat?”

Even though it’s customary in Nancheng to wake up early on the first day of the lunar new year for a feast of cakes, dumplings, and glutinous rice balls, there were no servants at home now, and the doctor had restricted him to a liquid diet for the time being.

Without delay, Mo Weiyi said, “Then… I’ll make congee for you later.”

Xiao Yebai raised an eyebrow and glanced at her. “You?”

“What’s with your tone?” Mo Weiyi seemed disheartened. Her cat eyes blinking in protest, “I should be able to do this.”

Just add water, then rice, and cook them together, right?

Xiao Yebai’s face remained still as he picked up a dumpling with the chopsticks and handed it over to her, “Rong An also brought congee. I’ve already had some.”

“Oh.”

Alright then.

She devoured all ten dumplings that he had cooked.

Xiao Yebai put down the chopsticks and walked over to the mirror, straightened the collar and cuffs of his shirt, put on his coat, and placed his glasses on his nose.

Instantly, he transformed from a domestic man to a well-dressed elite.

And he looked exceptionally well.

Not at all like a sick person.

Once everything was neatly arranged, Xiao Yebai walked to the edge of the bed, “Get up, and take me to the hospital.”

“This early?” Mo Weiyi was surprised.

“The IV drip begins at nine.”

“Didn’t you say it won’t be a problem?” Even so, Mo Weiyi got up immediately.

Xiao Yebai subtly curled his lips, “Originally, it wouldn’t have been.”

Mo Weiyi got it in an instant.

Speechless.

It felt like this man came home just for this during Chinese New Year…

Cough cough cough.

**

When they arrived at the hospital and got out of the car, they bumped into someone familiar.

“Huanhuan, what are you doing here?”

Shi Huan had just gotten out of her car too, and immediately greeted them upon seeing them, “President Xiao, Miss Mo.”

“Why are you still calling me Miss Mo?” Mo Weiyi pouted.

Clothed in a red coat that made her fair and lovely complexion stand out, her delicate and animated features were breathtakingly beautiful.

Shi Huan laughed involuntarily, “Weiyi.”

Mo Weiyi was instantly pleased, “Are you here to visit someone?”

“Yes.”

“Who? Don’t tell me Chu is ill again?”

“No, my grandmother is hospitalized here.”

“Is it serious?”

“It’s nothing…”

Before she could finish, a woman’s voice sounded, “Huanhuan, can we go now?”

Shi Huan quickly said, “I must go in now, Weiyi, President Xiao, goodbye.”

“Alright, goodbye.”

Mo Weiyi watched as Shi Huan walked away.

There was a young man and woman standing over there, along with a little girl about four or five years old.

The man was refined and handsome, the woman calm and virtuous, and the little girl was refreshingly beautiful with a beaming smile, dressed in a pink cotton jacket. Her big eyes curiously watched them. She was irresistibly adorable.

At first glance, they were a beautiful family of three.

After Shi Huan left with them, Mo Weiyi suddenly clung to the man’s arm and asked in a soft voice, “Xiaobai, don’t you think that family of three just now looked very pleasing to the eye?”

Xiao Yebai, “I didn’t notice.”

Mo Weiyi was not annoyed, “I originally thought of having a son who looks just like you. But after seeing that family of three just now, I suddenly feel that having a daughter is good too. They say daughters resemble their dads.”

With her arms around his, she playfully swayed to and fro, “Also, the exam results should be out in a few days. Does our previous agreement still stand?”

“What agreement?”

“You forgot?” Mo Weiyi immediately knitted her brows.

She swore, if he had really forgotten, she would give him the silent treatment for another three days!

“About having a child?” The man’s voice suddenly sounded.

“Yes, yes.” Mo Weiyi immediately beamed, nodding her head vigorously, “Does it still count?”

Xiao Yebai said in a mild-tone, “It counts.”

Mo Weiyi instantly looked sweet and bright, “That’s good, let’s go.”

Shi Huan followed that family of three into the elevator and pressed the button for the 11th floor, then stood in the corner.

“Mom really, why did she have to stay here?” Tu Youran grumbled softly, “It’s too far from home, it takes more than an hour to get here.”

She looked at Shi Huan, “Huanhuan, did you choose this hospital?”

Shi Huan replied, “Grandma chose it herself.”

“Why?”

Shi Huan explained honestly, “She said the service here is good, and it’s comfortable.”

“But it’s very expensive, right?” Tu Youran immediately asked.

Shi Huan’s voice was calm, but she didn’t deny it, “Yep, 2000 yuan per day.”

“2000 yuan a day? That’s so expensive?”

Shi Huan fell silent.

In reality, this price was for the most basic VIP ward here. If it were more expensive, she would not have agreed.

Over the years, she believed she had done her duty towards her grandmother.

She’d paid what she owed.

But she would never agree to wasteful spending, and the old Mrs. Shi could do nothing about her.

“Ay, Huanhuan, you have indeed had a hard time these years. But don’t worry, your uncle and I have decided to settle down here.”

Shi Huan was surprised, “Settle down?”

“Yes, on this trip back, we sold our house and car over there and moved all our assets back home. We have nothing holding us back.” Tu Youran affectionately held onto her husband’s arm, “Besides, Luoluo is already five years old and starting school. Constantly shuttling between countries wouldn’t be good for her upbringing.”

Little Luoluo was holding a lollipop in her hand. When she heard her name, she lifted her little head to look at the adults, even as her mouth worked on the lollipop.

Little foodie!

Shi Huan couldn’t help but smile at the adorable little girl, “Alright, grandma should be very happy.”

Throughout the conversation, Shi Minyan remained silent.
