Chapter 19 isn't just about showing support, it's about backing someone up. (tushumi.cc)

Hearing Ye Nanqing call for a doctor, Ji Tiantian suddenly became frightened. Her bright eyes instantly welled up with tears, and her voice trembled with sobs, "Handsome uncle, is Mommy really sick? Will she ever wake up?"

Ye Nanqing knew the little girl was worried, so he reached out and patted her head to comfort her, "Don't worry, Sweetie, your mommy will be fine. The doctor will come and do a check-up soon, and your mommy will get better quickly."

"Really?"

Ji Tiantian blinked her big, misty eyes.

Ye Nanqing replied affirmatively, "Really."

Ji Tiantian was relieved and nestled her small body against Ye Nanqing's long legs, keeping watch over the unconscious Ji Fuling with him.

Before long, Chen Heng arrived in a great hurry with a private doctor surnamed Song.

Ye Nanqing raised his eyes and gestured, "Go see what's wrong with her."

The "she" here naturally refers to Ji Fuling.

Dr. Song is a very perceptive person. From the fact that Chen Heng brought him here in such a hurry, and from Ye Nanqing's slightly solemn tone, he could tell that this patient was of great importance.

He quickly replied, "Yes, Mr. Ye."

After performing a brief examination on Ji Fuling, Dr. Song reported truthfully: "Mr. Ye, this young lady has simply drunk too much alcohol, causing mild alcohol poisoning, which has led to her temporary coma. She will wake up soon after receiving an IV drip, and with more rest, she will be fine."

Ye Nanqing swept his gaze over with an imposing look, "Then hurry up and hit her!"

"Right away!!"

Dr. Song readily agreed and quickly took out medicine and other items from his medicine box to begin administering an IV to Ji Fuling.

Ye Nanqing then turned to glance at Chen Heng standing beside him and instructed, "Take the little girl out to get something to eat."

The doctor hadn't arrived yet. He chatted with the little girl for a bit and realized she hadn't eaten breakfast and was starving.

However, the little girl was very sensible and worried about her mother, so she kept quiet about being hungry.

When food was mentioned, Ji Tiantian felt a little hungry, but looking at her mother who was still asleep in bed, she shook her head and said, "Tiantian won't go. Tiantian wants to stay here with Mommy."

Ye Nanqing was charmed by her obedient appearance, and his cold and deep voice softened unconsciously. "Uncle is here. Uncle will take good care of your mommy. Go and get something to eat with Uncle Chen before you come back."

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a moment, then decided that the handsome uncle was someone she could trust.

So she nodded, "Okay, then I'll leave my mommy to you!"

Chen Heng walked over, took the little girl's hand, and led her outside, his heart already filled with shock.

He had been by Nightclub's side for many years, and this was the first time he had ever seen Nightclub so nervous about a woman.

It was also the first time I had ever seen Mr. Ye's gentle side.

Although this gentleness was directed at a young girl, it was enough to shock him.

It seems that the nightclub has finally seen a stroke of luck this time!

Ji Fuling woke up halfway through the IV drip.

Upon opening her eyes, she was immediately struck by Ye Nanqing's handsome face, with its sharp features and deep, sculpted lines.

She stared blankly for a few seconds, thinking she must be dreaming, and then closed her eyes again.

Ye Nanqing sat on the edge of the bed, looking down at her. "Awake? How are you feeling?"

A familiar, magnetic voice reached her ears, and Ji Fuling opened her eyes again. Sure enough, Ye Nanqing was still in front of her.

She finally realized she wasn't dreaming, and that this was definitely her room.

But……

What are you doing here?

Ji Fuling looked at the man beside her, completely bewildered.

Ye Nanqing glanced at the IV needle on the back of her left hand and said succinctly, "The little girl couldn't wake you up, so she called me."

Ji Fuling followed his gaze and glanced to the side, only to realize that she was receiving an IV drip.

She was stunned for a moment, "Uh... what's wrong with me?"

Ye Nanqing looked at her with a cool gaze, his tone seemingly carrying a hint of displeasure, "Alcohol poisoning, temporary coma."

Alcohol poisoning?

Ji Fuling's attention was entirely focused on his words, and she didn't notice his emotions.

She knew she had drunk a bit too much last night, but she didn't expect it to be this serious.

Coming to her senses, Ji Fuling met Ye Nanqing's gaze and blinked. "So, you're the one who had me put on an IV drip?"

"Otherwise what?"

Ye Nanqing didn't answer but asked a question in return.

Ji Fuling paused for a moment, then pursed her lips and said, "Thank you, Uncle."

Considering that he saved her again, she decided to let bygones be bygones about the time she was forcibly kissed.

"Um."

Ye Nanqing responded with a faint "yes".

After a few seconds of pause, he added, "Tell me next time you have a social engagement."

"ah??"

Ji Fuling was completely confused and didn't understand what he meant.

Why are we suddenly talking about social engagements?

Ye Nanqing's dark eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in them. "I'd like to see who dares to make you drink."

Ji Fuling paused for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "You mean, when I'm socializing, you'll go and support me?"

According to him, her understanding should be correct, right?

Ye Nanqing stared intently at her, and said, word by word, "It's not about showing up, it's about giving you support."

The sentence, spoken in a tone that was otherwise flat, exploded like a thunderclap in Ji Fuling's heart.

She stared at the man in front of her in astonishment, and the question that had been bothering her escaped her lips: "Why are you helping me?"

They had only known each other for a short time, and she couldn't imagine why Ye Nanqing would help her.

Ye Nanqing gave a cryptic smile, "I'm willing."

As the two were talking, Chen Heng returned with Ji Tiantian, who had eaten and drunk her fill.

Seeing Ji Fuling half-sitting on the bed, the little girl toddled over with delighted joy, her short legs darting towards her. "Mommy, Mommy, you're really awake!!"

Ji Fuling raised her right hand and touched the little girl's fair and tender cheek. "I'm sorry, Sweetie, Mommy made you worry."

Ji Tiantian's bright, watery eyes darted around, and she started plotting something again.

The handsome uncle said that Mommy would get better soon, and Mommy really did wake up.

She decided to let her mother marry the handsome uncle so that he could take care of her!

Having made up her mind, the little girl grabbed Ji Fuling's hand and began to plead, "Mommy, Uncle is such a good person, so handsome, and he takes such good care of people. Why don't you marry him?"

Ji Fuling was speechless for a moment: "..."

This little girl is really something, she actually dared to bring this up!

It seems that a month without watching Peppa Pig is too lenient a punishment!

"Please, Mommy..."

Ji Tiantian relentlessly pressed for answers, determined to marry her mother off to the handsome uncle.

Ji Fuling pretended to have a stern face and said, "Ji Tiantian, don't talk nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense, I'm going to spank your little bottom!"

"I think the little girl's suggestion is quite good; you can consider it."

Ye Nanqing glanced at Ji Fuling with his deep eyes and suddenly spoke.

Ji Fuling was taken aback and turned to look at Ye Nanqing, trying to find a trace of laughter on his face, but there was none.

His expression was surprisingly serious.

Ji Fuling frowned, but before she could say anything, Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo, who had just returned from the supermarket, rushed in, followed closely by Aunt Ding.
