After Su Xiaonuan finished speaking, the bureau chiefs at the table were so shocked that they couldn't speak.
You can guess the whole situation at a glance.
That's amazing!
Everyone was stunned for a long time before they came to their senses.
The road is wide. "Comrade Xiao Nuan, you're truly a detective! With just this one object, you can see through everything. It seems we've come to the right person."
"Why do you think it's a daughter? Couldn't it be a wife or another family member?" Yu Yang was also puzzled. "There's no word 'daughter' on this item, how did you figure that out?"
“Look at your hair,” Su Xiaonuan pointed at Yu Yang’s head.
Yu Yang glanced at the other three, then touched his own hair. "Nothing's different, just a little longer than theirs."
While they were eating, all four of them took off their peaked caps.
Three of them had buzz cuts.
“It’s not just a little longer,” Su Xiaonuan said with a smile. “Look at that tuft of hair on your head. It’s obvious that it’s often pulled up. The person who would do that is definitely not your family or wife. It’s just a naughty child. Even the naughtiest boy wouldn’t do such a thing. Only a girl would do that. So, Director Yu is a doting father. He spoils his daughter, who was born in the Year of the Rabbit, rotten to the core.”
"Impressive!" Yu Yang felt a surge of admiration. "No wonder you solved so many cold cases in such a short time. I used to have some doubts, but now I have 100% faith in your abilities."
“Strength isn’t important. What’s important is, tell me what illness your daughter has and why she needs to stay in the hospital for a long time?” Su Xiaonuan thought to herself, perhaps she could help Yu Yang.
After all, she was someone who lived decades ahead of her time.
At this point, the bureau chiefs at the table all expressed deep sorrow. They silently picked up their glasses and downed them in one gulp.
Judging from the situation, this topic is somewhat heavy.
But Su Xiaonuan had already asked the question, and she couldn't take it back.
Yu Yang sighed, "This story goes back a few years. Dian Dian was kidnapped by the criminals' accomplices. They threatened me with the child, demanding that I release the criminals. I didn't give in. Dian Dian was tortured to the point of almost dying. After being rescued, she developed anorexia. For the past few years, she has been living in the hospital, surviving on nutritional supplements. She can hardly swallow even the most delicious food, and if you force her to eat, she will vomit."
“Director Yu, don’t worry, this isn’t a terminal illness. With dietary adjustments and psychological treatment, she will get better,” Su Xiaonuan said confidently. “I’ll go see Diandian when I have time; I can help her.”
"Can you help her?" Yu Yang asked, tears welling in his eyes, as he excitedly stepped forward and grabbed Su Xiaonuan's hand. "Can you really help my Diandian?"
"Mm." Su Xiaonuan nodded. "Trust me!"
"Then come to the hospital with me now." Yu Yang was anxious to save his daughter and couldn't wait any longer.
Su Xiaonuan glanced at the customers eating inside and outside the shop and said with some difficulty, "Let's do it another day. I really can't get away today."
"Comrade Xiao Nuan, you go ahead, we can handle things here." Lu Kuan rolled up his sleeves. "Although we can't cook, we can still serve dishes and wash dishes."
“Yes, we’ll work here as waiters. You should go to the hospital to check on Dian Dian first,” the other two agreed.
"Director Yu, I'd like to ask, during the time Diandian was taken away, was she forced to stop eating, or did she voluntarily stop eating?" Su Xiaonuan asked.
“At first, they wouldn’t give Dian Dian anything to eat. In the end, when Dian Dian saw that they were threatening me with her, the little one stopped eating on her own…” Yu Yang choked up and couldn’t continue.
"Okay, I understand." Su Xiaonuan nodded. "Wait a moment, I'll go to the kitchen to cook some millet porridge."
Yu Yang tried to stop her, but Su Xiaonuan had already slipped into the kitchen.
However, he still shook his head, feeling that Su Xiaonuan's porridge was a waste of time and that Diandian definitely wouldn't drink it, or she would spit it out.
For years, we've tried everything, but Dian Dian still can't eat.
Yu Yang took Su Xiaonuan to the hospital.
Lying on the hospital bed was a thin, weak girl, her face pale and sallow, her eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.
"Dian Dian," Yu Yang called out, and quickly stepped forward.
"Daddy." The girl's gaze turned towards him, her empty eyes regaining expression, and she raised a small, thin finger. "Who is she? Your new girlfriend? Daddy, are you going to find me a new mom?"
"What's going on?" Su Xiaonuan tugged at Yu Yang and asked in a low voice.
Yu Yang felt a little embarrassed and covered his mouth, saying softly, "Dian Dian's mother resented me for ruining our daughter, and divorced me and left for another place. It seems she misunderstood."
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaonuan strode forward, crossed her arms, circled Dian Dian's bedside twice, and finally snorted. "It's such a pain for such a sickly child to live. Lao Yu, I think you should just give up. Instead of wasting time on this child, we'd be better off having another healthy child later..."
"You...you..." Yu Yang was so angry he couldn't speak. He hadn't expected Su Xiaonuan to say that.
He thought Su Xiaonuan was going to explain to her daughter.
"You wicked woman!" Dian Dian pointed angrily at Su Xiaonuan, cursing weakly. "I...I won't let you marry my father..."
"A cripple who relies on nutritional supplements to stay alive, do you think you have that ability?" Su Xiaonuan winked at Yu Yang, meaning that Yu Yang should not expose her, and used reverse psychology to force Dian Dian to eat.
Yu Yang finally understood and nodded to Su Xiaonuan.
Her winking and eyebrow-raising were interpreted by Dian Dian as flirting.
His nod was interpreted by Dian Dian as tacit approval of the bad woman's actions.
So, Dian Dian got angry. "I won't let you have your way."
"Look at you, so weak you can't even kill a chicken, what do you think you're going to use to stop us?" Su Xiaonuan opened the millet porridge she had brought, revealing a rabbit pattern she had made up of ingredients on top. She deliberately waved it in front of Dian Dian. "It smells so good! I'll deal with you, you little burden, after I finish eating the rabbit in this millet porridge."
Just as Su Xiaonuan was about to dig into the rabbit pattern in the millet porridge, Diandian mustered up her courage, sat up, snatched the spoon from her hand, scooped up a spoonful, and fed it to her.
He swallowed the food without tasting it, then angrily scooped up another spoonful and fed it into his mouth.
Yu Yang burst into tears of joy. "Dian Dian, you can finally eat, you can finally eat..."
"Ah, can I eat now?" Dian Dian was also extremely surprised, looking at the spoon in her hand and the millet porridge in the box in disbelief. "Why didn't I throw up? How can I eat?"
“This is a psychological problem,” Xiao Nuan pointed out incisively. “Dian Dian, your so-called anorexia is all in accordance with your psychological state. Back then, when you wanted to eat, they wouldn’t let you. When they did let you eat, you didn’t want to burden your father, so you chose to starve yourself. After you were rescued, you would vomit as soon as you ate. At first, it was indeed due to your illness. But over time, you got used to this pampering and just wanted to live in the care of your family for the rest of your life, so you simply decided to continue the starvation.”
