Zhong Wan's life philosophy: Being poor is scarier than ghosts! A middle-aged leftover woman who has been unemployed for a year and is about to live on the streets, Zhong Wan gritted her teeth ...
Chapter 104 Using Your Hand
The next day,
It's another sunny day.
After enjoying a leisurely breakfast, Zhong Wan and her family of three went back to their own tasks.
For the convenience of working, and also for the convenience of spending intimate time with his wife,
Lin Yan'an's laptop computer occupied most of the cashier's counter on the first floor.
He sat comfortably inside working, while Zhong Wan leisurely practiced with paper and pen.
Zhong Suisui, feeling even more relaxed, climbed back onto the roof to bask in the sun.
The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful.
The sudden ringing of the bell broke the silence in the room.
Zhong Wan and Lin Yan'an subconsciously looked up.
Looking at the lit-up phone placed in the middle of the table,
Lin Yan'an frowned slightly as he looked at the names that kept flashing on the screen. He reached out and picked it up while explaining, "Cheng Yanzhou, my assistant. I'll introduce you to him sometime."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan nodded and said "Mmm," then asked considerately, "Do you need me to excuse myself?"
"Need not."
Lin Yan'an raised his hand to answer the phone: "Hello, what's up?"
"Hello, Mr. Lin, something's happened to Mr. Pei on set! He's unconscious in the hospital, and the crew is in complete chaos. We need you to come over right away!"
Cheng Yanzhou's voice was urgent: "I'll pack up now and head over right away. When will you be able to arrive?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan'an's expression immediately turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Buy me a plane ticket from Yunshan City to there. I'll leave immediately too."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yan'an turned to Zhong Wan and said in a deep voice, "Something happened to my brother-in-law. I need to go there as soon as possible."
His eyes lingered on Zhong Wan with reluctance: "Wanwan, are you okay staying home by yourself today?"
Zhong Wan nodded quickly: "Don't worry, Sui Sui and A Gui are still at home, everything will be fine."
"But it's you."
As she spoke, she hurriedly grabbed the notes she had just written, which showed a completion rate of over 60%, and stuffed them into his hands, reminding him with concern, "Take these with you. Contact me anytime if you have any problems."
Lin Yan'an nodded: "Then when Xingyu and the others come tomorrow, you can go to Kyoto with them to wait for me. Xingyu will take you to my house in Kyoto. After I get back, I will take you to see Grandpa."
"good."
A phone call disrupted the peace and ended their rare time alone together.
Airport waiting room,
Lin Yan'an held Zhong Wan's small hand tightly, looking at her with great reluctance, and said, "Why don't you come with me, Wanwan?"
Zhong Wan chuckled, her heart fluttering for a moment at his pleading eyes, but she still shook her head and refused: "Not this time. We agreed that Xingyu and Yangyang would come over tomorrow, and someone has to be home."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan'an couldn't help but sigh softly and instructed, "Don't tell Xingyu about this first. I'll go and see what's going on."
"Otherwise, it would save him from worrying unnecessarily."
"Um,"
Zhong Wan nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, if he asks about you, I'll just say you're on a business trip?"
"Can,"
Lin Yan'an was about to say something more when the boarding announcement came over the loudspeaker.
He reached out and pulled Zhong Wan into a tight embrace, whispering in her ear, "Take care of yourself, and wait for me to come back."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
"Um."
Even though they were reluctant to part, the time for them to separate had finally come.
Only after watching his figure disappear from sight did Zhong Wan realize that they were parting ways.
This was their first separation.
It came so suddenly, and so hastily.
With his departure, it felt as if a piece of her heart had been emptied.
Zhong Wan sighed softly, mustered her spirits, turned around, and drove home.
She drove slowly on her way back.
When Zhong Wan caught a glimpse of the hospital not far ahead out of the corner of her eye, a thought struck her.
I parked the car in the hospital parking lot.
After getting off the bus and returning to the entrance, I bought some fruit before entering the inpatient department.
Following Xu Siying's information, they found Tongtong's room.
Standing at the door, looking at Pei Huili inside with a beaming smile, then at Tongtong lying on the hospital bed, her face still somewhat pale, I glanced at her.
Looking at their bright smiles,
Zhong Wan couldn't help but smile too.
She raised her hand and knocked on the door, smiling as she said, "It seems Tongtong is recovering quite well. What are you chatting about that makes you so happy?"
"Boss Zhong!"
Upon hearing this, Pei Huili turned around, and after recognizing him, she quickly smiled and stood up to greet him: "Boss Zhong, what brings you here?"
I've come to see Tongtong.
As she spoke, Zhong Wan handed over the fruit, saying, "It's just a small token of my appreciation, don't mind it."
"No, no, we're just happy you came. Why would we need to bring anything?"
Pei Huili quickly shook her head and refused, saying, "We should be thanking you more."
"You have no idea, Tongtong's surgery yesterday was so dangerous. The doctors said that there was a moment when Tongtong's heart stopped beating."
"I didn't expect that I would recover so quickly, without even needing to be treated by doctors."
"And what's really strange is that the note you slipped into Tongtong's hand yesterday is gone. I've been looking for it for a long time but haven't found it, and the doctors and nurses haven't seen it either."
"When Tongtong woke up today, she said it was in her hand."
“Master Zhong… no, I mean Mr. Zhong, could you please take a look? I didn’t see any note in her hand.”
Zhong Wan was taken aback upon hearing this, then nodded and walked over.
Tongtong lay weakly on the hospital bed, and upon seeing her, a smile instantly appeared on her face: "Aunt Zhong..."
Her voice was very soft, but Zhong Wan, with her sharp ears, heard it clearly.
She looked at Tongtong with a smile in her eyes and nodded in agreement: "Yes, Auntie is here."
"Tongtong, get some rest. Auntie will play with you again when you're feeling better, okay?"
"good……"
Clever Tongtong also overheard their conversation.
She struggled to raise her hand and reach out to Zhong Wan.
Seeing this, Zhong Wan quickly and gently grasped it, noticing a faint golden light shimmering in her palm.
She stared intently, and after seeing clearly, murmured softly, "Peace and health..."
Zhong Wan asked herself in confusion, "Sui Sui? Can you hear me? What does this mean?"
She was met with silence.
Zhong Wan frowned slightly. Was it because they were too far apart, or because Sui Sui hadn't woken up yet?
[It is the power of merit.]
A cold, mechanical voice suddenly answered Zhong Wan's question: it was the rules...
After listening, Zhong Wan couldn't help but murmur in confusion, "The power of merit?"
Yes, it was the power of merit left behind by her father.
Why did it appear on my writing?
Because you've seen him, and you've seen his children.
He is using you to bless his child, ensuring a lifetime of peace and health.
[It wasn't just him, but also them; it was because of them that you were able to successfully activate the merit point reward.]
Zhong Wan lowered her eyes, looking at Tongtong's smiling eyes and then at Pei Huili's expectant gaze. Her throat tightened instantly.
She swallowed hard, her voice slightly hoarse: "It's Tongtong's father who is protecting Tongtong from heaven, ensuring her a safe and healthy life."
"Old Wang..."
Upon hearing this, Pei Huili's eyes instantly reddened. She raised her hand to cover her mouth, looking at Zhong Wan with a half-smile and a hint of crying, and asked to confirm, "Boss Zhong, is it really Old Wang?"
Zhong Wan nodded: "Yes, he is also watching over Tongtong from above."
"dad……"
Tongtong murmured that familiar yet long-lost name, her little hands clenching loosely, tears silently streaming down her cheeks.
