Chapter 107 Discharge

Today is the day Xu Minghao is discharged from the hospital, and Qi Xinlan came early in the morning to help him pack his things.

In fact, there weren’t many things, just some kettles, washbasins, clothes and the like, and Qi Xinlan packed them up quickly.

The person who came to pick them up from the hospital was not Zhang Zhehua as agreed, but Shen Ming.

Shen Ming knew that Xu Minghao was being discharged from the hospital today, so he drove over in a jeep early in the morning.

"You are Zhang Zhehua's grandfather, right? I am Shen Ming. Captain Zhang is on a mission, and he asked me to pick you up from the hospital." Shen Ming raised his eyes slightly and smiled brightly.

When Zhang Gang heard Shen Ming say this, he thanked him on the surface, but his face showed a little disappointment.

Qi Xinlan didn't care, as long as someone came to pick Xu Minghao up from the hospital. Otherwise, taking the bus in this horrible weather would be fatal!

Moreover, Qi Xinlan clearly felt that Zhang Zhehua was hostile to Xu Minghao, so it would be better if he didn't come.

Along the way, there was a thin layer of snow on the cars, tree branches, and buildings, which looked like silver shawls and coats. It was very beautiful. As a southerner, Qi Xinlan rarely saw such a scene and couldn't help but be dazzled.

Soon, they returned to the military family building.

Qi Xinlan carefully helped Xu Minghao get out of the car, while Shen Ming first sent Zhang Gang back to the family building, and then turned back to move the things in the car.

Shen Ming, who was moving things, suddenly had a black vision. Two soft little hands touched his eyes, and a clear and pleasant voice came to his ears, "Guess who I am?"

Because Shen Ming was quite tall, Qi Xinyu's entire body was almost pressed against Shen Ming's back. The softness of his back and the faint fragrance coming from his nose made his whole body stiffen.

Shen Ming calmed himself down before saying softly, "Xiao Yu."

"Ah! How did you guess it right again? It's not fun at all!" Qi Xinyu withdrew her hand after hearing it, pouting her pink lips, looking very dissatisfied.

{Because no one except you dares to tease me like this.}

But Shen Ming didn't say that. Instead, he coaxed her softly, "Then I'll guess it later next time, okay?"

"That's great! You must guess it later next time." Qi Xinyu laughed happily after hearing this, and said while clapping her hands.

"Okay." Shen Ming touched Qi Xinyu's head lovingly, and then said, "Go back quickly, your sister is back."

"Xiao Lan, are you back?"

"Yes! Go back quickly, it's very cold outside."

"Yeah! Xiaolan is back. I asked Xiaolan to make buns for me." After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

Seeing her jumping around, Shen Ming couldn't help but shook his head.

Ever since she met Qi Xinyu that day, Qi Xinyu would look for her to play from time to time, but he usually had no time to play with her during training. She didn't make any noise and just watched him train quietly.

At first, he was very uncomfortable and made frequent mistakes, which attracted the ridicule of his subordinates, but later he gradually got used to it.

One day, he subconsciously looked at a corner of the training ground, but didn't see her. He panicked and looked for her before he found her making a snowman.

Qi Xinyu built three snowmen and told him that the biggest and ugliest snowman was him.

He asked, what about the other two?

She said the other two were her and Xiaolan.

Shen Ming wanted to ask, did he already have a place in her heart?

But he didn't dare to ask, because he knew that Qi Xinyu's intelligence was only at the level of a four or five-year-old. If he told these things to a four or five-year-old child, would she be able to understand?

Qi Xinlan had previously asked someone to look into Qi Xinyu's background, and there was already some clues, but it was still not certain, and that family seemed to be looking for Qi Xinyu as well.

If she is really the lost daughter of the Zhu family in the capital, is he worthy of her?

He was just an orphan, powerless and without any influence. He risked his life to become the head of the group.

Qi Xinlan helped Xu Minghao sit on a stool, and soon heard an urgent voice: "Xiaolan, Xiaolan, you're back?"

Qi Xinlan turned her head and was greeted by a bear hug from Qi Xinyu.

"Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan, I miss you so much!"

"Do you miss me? Or do you want to eat buns?" Qi Xinlan helplessly pulled away her arms from around her neck.

"Well... I want to do both! Hehe!" Qi Xinyu pretended to think for a moment, then laughed again.

"Okay, I'll make buns for you today." Qi Xinlan touched Qi Xinyu's cheek lovingly.

"Yeah! Xiaolan is the best!" After saying that, he saw a tall man sitting behind Qi Xinlan.

The man had sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, cold thin lips, and a firm jaw. He was very handsome, but his eyes were indifferent. Qi Xinyu was a little afraid to look him in the eye.

But he still spoke cautiously, "Xiao Lan, who is he?"

"Oh, he is my fiancé. I told you before, his name is Xu Minghao." Qi Xinlan then remembered Xu Minghao and introduced him happily.

"Hello, brother-in-law. My name is Qi Xinyu, and I'm Xiaolan's sister." Although Qi Xinyu was very scared, she thought that since she was Xiaolan's fiancé, she was his sister. How could a sister be afraid of her brother? So she mustered up the courage to say hello.

"Hello." Although Xu Minghao was very confused, he glanced at Qi Xinlan.

The Qi family only had two siblings, so where did the older sister come from? Furthermore, the woman in front of him clearly seemed to have some intellectual issues.

It can be seen that Qi Xinlan had no objection, and he didn't say anything.

After saying hello, Qi Xinyu ran out to play again.

Qi Xinlan didn't stop her. Qi Xinyu was just a child now, and it was her nature to like playing.

"Brother, don't you even ask?" Qi Xinlan thought Xu Minghao would ask about Qi Xinyu's situation, but she waited for a long time and didn't see him mention it, so she couldn't help but ask.

"You must have your reasons for doing this, I won't ask."

The sight of Xu Minghao trusting her wholeheartedly softened Qi Xinlan's heart.

This fool, just like in her previous life, believes whatever she says.

She said she was short of money, so I sent her the monthly allowance without saying a word.

She said she didn't want to see him, so he didn't even dare to come back during holidays and could only keep writing letters to her.

She said she wanted to study, so he tried every possible way to raise money, but she didn't believe him.

Thinking of this, her eyes became a little moist, but she forced herself to hold it back and jokingly said, "You fool, if I cheated on you one day, you wouldn't ask?"

"If Lan Zi cheated on me, then it must be because I did something wrong and made you angry." Xu Minghao pondered for a while and spoke.

"You fool, I won't lie to you, not in this life, not in the next." As she said this, she leaned in Xu Minghao's arms, smelling the soapberry scent on his body, closed her eyes, and felt extremely at ease.

When Qi Xinlan approached Xu Minghao, his body suddenly stiffened, and all the muscles in his upper body became stiff in an instant.

Even through the clothes, Qi Xinlan could feel it. She looked up at his smooth jawline and rolling Adam's apple, and suddenly had some bad thoughts. She couldn't help but poke his abdominal muscles with her fingers.
