She was too lazy to waste her energy on this kind of person. She would rather check on Zhouzhou's injury.
Yuan Xiaoyuan chimed in.
"Yes, yes, Sister Qiqi is right! It's a waste of energy to argue with this kind of person! Let me see Zhouzhou's hands!"
All eyes turned to Zhouzhou. Li Hongjuan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly grabbed her two children, and slunk away.
Xiaoyuan took a cotton swab, dipped it in disinfectant, and used it to disinfect Zhouzhou.
The medicine irritated the wound, and the little girl's face scrunched up in pain as she gasped for breath, but she stubbornly refused to shed a tear.
After applying the medicine, she raised her big, wet eyes, looked at Lei Yuhua who had spoken up for her earlier, and then at Xiao Yuan.
She moved her lips silently, clearly making two mouth shapes, "Thank you... thank you..."
Seeing the girl's forbearance and understanding, the two young women were completely softened and wished they could offer her all the good things in the world.
Zhou Qiqi looked at Zhouzhou, her gaze softening. She then looked at Lei Yuhua and sincerely thanked her, "Thank you."
Lei Yuhua waved her hand and laughed heartily, "Hey, we're all family, no need for formalities!"
"Just now, Xiao Wang went over to deliver a message saying that my mom called and asked if you got home yet. I heard from Xiao Wang that something happened, so I hung up the phone and rushed over. I'm just glad you weren't bullied!"
Xiao Yuan handed Zhouzhou a milk candy while interjecting with a grin.
"Sister Qiqi would never be bullied. She's the best. Just now, she was so imposing. She shut the other person up with just a few words!"
These words made Zhu Yingying and Lei Yuhua burst into laughter, instantly dispelling the heavy atmosphere from before.
Zhu Yingying glanced at the sky and reminded her,
"Oh dear, the food I got from the cafeteria is still at home, it'll get cold if we don't eat it soon! Qiqi, Zhouzhou's wound has been treated, let's go back quickly? What's going on with your family search? Let's talk about it while we eat."
She was incredibly curious: how did Qiqi suddenly become Director Zhou's niece?
Zhou Qiqi nodded and smiled at Xiao Yuan.
"Xiaoyuan, thank you for your help today. I just got back. I'll invite you to my house for dinner another day."
"Okay, Sister Qiqi!"
Xiao Yuan happily agreed.
After saying that, Zhou Qiqi, along with Zhouzhou and Yingying, left first.
Lei Yuhua watched their departing figures and was also preparing to leave the clinic.
Suddenly, a tall figure darted in through the doorway, almost colliding with her!
"Oh my god!"
Lei Yuhua jumped back in fright, and upon closer inspection,
"Thunder? You little brat, can't you watch where you're going?! You're scaring me half to death!"
She patted her chest to catch her breath, waiting with curiosity for her elusive cousin.
"That's strange, kid. You're always so eager to come back to the military dependents' area, even after being urged three or four times. But now that your parents aren't here, you suddenly show up?"
After she finished speaking, her eyes widened immediately.
"I see. So you knew Qiqi was back and rushed over here? You really care about Qiqi, huh!"
She winked mischievously, deliberately drawing out her words: "So deeply in love! But—"
She changed the subject, her tone tinged with a hint of schadenfreude and regret.
"What a pity! You have good taste, falling in love at first sight with such a wonderful and strong woman as Qiqi. It's a shame she's already taken. But it's also a good thing she's taken, since you two are relatives! It's fortunate she didn't fall for you back then. If she had, things would have been a complete mess! You should give up on that idea as soon as possible!"
"Relatives? What relatives?"
Lei Ming was completely bewildered by her barrage of words.
"Sis, what nonsense are you talking about?"
