Chapter 65 Stop Pretending to Sleep
Thanks to Gu Langyan, Qi Sijing finished handling local affairs in the morning and even had time to hold a meeting.
Maybe the two sentences yesterday had a strong deterrent effect, today these elders have less trouble, and Elder Fang has a green face and is cautious in his words and actions.
After the meeting, Qi Sijing bought some toys and food for the children and went to the Military Region General Hospital.
He had been to this place once before, and that time was when he was born.
The Military Region General Hospital is not open to the public and is where executive officers go to receive medical treatment and recuperate.
Qi Sijing's information was checked three times before he was allowed to enter the hall.
He was just about to go to the front desk to ask where the children were.
A vampire called out to him, "King..."
Qi Sijing looked back, squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then remembered the name of this vampire - Jiang Anyu.
The last time he saw Jiang Anyu was the day he negotiated with the Human Dictatorship Organization to get the children back.
He nodded slightly in return, then glanced down at the man's limping leg, "Who's getting beaten up again?"
"No!" Jiang Anyu's cheeks flushed a little at his words. "I got a minor injury while on the mission. You...are you coming to see the kids? I'll take you."
Qi Sijing raised his chin, motioned Jiang Anyu to lead the way, and then walked behind Jiang Anyu.
"Among the children, Shuyan is the worst... He is easily provoked."
Qi Sijing was slightly stunned.
"We're here." Jiang Anyu moved to the side with the help of his crutch.
Without the obstruction, the four children sitting together came into Qi Sijing's sight.
Xia Shuyan, who used to be the most noisy, sat on a small bench with a blank look in his eyes, lowering his head to solve the Rubik's Cube. No matter how the children around him asked him questions, he didn't say a word.
The day before the accident, the child was still laughing and pointing at him and shouting, "Smelly fourth brother, don't let me speak."
Qi Sijing tightened his grip on the thing, his eyelashes trembled, and slowly drooped.
On the day of the accident, he had seen Xia Shuyan's condition from the video. At that time, Xia Shuyan could not be approached by anyone, so he did not dare to open the door to see.
"I remember! No! Don't hurt the dean's mother! No!" When he heard Xia Shuyan yelling this hysterically through the screen, his heart felt like it was crushed.
If he opened the door and heard the live version... he probably wouldn't be able to hold on.
In such a situation, he simply couldn't hold on.
Qi Sijing exhaled, blinked hard, and walked towards the children.
Yueyue was the first to turn around. The little girl was stunned for a moment when she saw him, then she immediately stood up and took a few steps towards him, still stammering, "Fourth, Fourth Brother! Are you okay?"
Qi Sijing raised the corner of his mouth, squatted down and rubbed Yueyue's hair, "I, your fourth brother, am fine."
The other two children also walked up to him immediately, their eyes lit up almost instantly, and they started talking at once.
"Fourth brother, we miss you so much!"
"Fourth brother, the doctor said we can be discharged soon!"
"Once we're out of the hospital, I'll fight monsters with my fourth brother!"
"Fourth brother, does the injection hurt?"
"Fourth, Fourth Brother, no, don't be sad!"
…
Qi Sijing lowered his head and blinked his sore eyes. He opened the bag and distributed the toys and snacks he brought to the children, answering them one by one as he did before.
"Fourth brother misses you guys too."
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come and accompany me."
"It doesn't hurt. Superman isn't afraid of injections."
"…Not sad, happy."
…
After coaxing the three, Qi Sijing stood up and walked over to Xia Shuyan. He supported his knees with his hands and bent down slightly, staring at the boy's lifeless eyes. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers, whispering, "Xia Shuyan, stop pretending to be asleep. Come over here. Fourth brother asked Yanyan to teach you how to tell jokes."
There is a crooked tree in Minnian's backyard.
When Qi Sijing first entered Aoze College to study for the fourth grade, he often skipped swimming classes and took a nap on the crooked tree.
These kids loved to sneak a peek at him under the shade of the trees during their free time, each one trying to hold back their laughter and shushing at each other.
Even though Qi Sijing was woken up, he cooperated by not opening his eyes and let them make noise.
Xia Shuyan had been a mischievous child since he was little. While other kids would just watch from below, he would climb up the tree trunk to watch. When he found out Qi Sijing was pretending, he would snap his fingers in Qi Sijing's ear and jokingly shout, "Fourth brother, stop pretending to sleep!"
…
After Qi Sijing said "Stop pretending to be asleep", Xia Shuyan still didn't react. He sighed lightly and put the toy on Xia Shuyan's legs. Just as he was about to rub Xia Shuyan's head and say "goodbye" to the child, Xia Shuyan suddenly raised his head.
Qi Sijing paused for a moment, then bent down again, lowered his eyes and looked at Xia Shuyan, waiting quietly to see Xia Shuyan's next move.
"Fourth brother..." Xia Shuyan's voice was very low.
Qi Sijing didn't expect Xia Shuyan to speak. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and his originally depressed mood improved a little.
He curled his lips and moved closer to the child, trying to get Xia Shuyan to say a few more words.
But before he could open his mouth, the scream pierced his eardrums and went straight to his heart.
"Don't let Fourth Brother go! I won't learn... I won't learn! Dean Mom! No! Don't hurt Mom!"
Qi Sijing's hands, which were supporting his knees, slowly tightened, his knuckles almost turning white from the force. He suddenly lowered his head and looked at the ground, not daring to look at the child's face again.
The medical staff immediately stepped forward and gave Xia Shuyan a sedative and took him back to the ward.
The attending physician stopped in front of Qi Sijing and sighed softly, "I'm sorry, the child has been doing well recently. I didn't expect..."
Qi Sijing let out a low breath, suppressed his emotions, and slowly stood up straight. "It's okay. When he can see me, please notify me... If desensitization is not possible, don't force the child. He is still young. Some things are better forgotten."
After the attending doctor left, Jiang Anyu walked over to Qi Sijing and asked awkwardly, "...Are you okay?"
"What can happen to me?" Qi Sijing turned and walked out of the hospital.
Jiang Anyu pursed her lips and followed him, "Wang, I didn't understand you before..."
Noticing Jiang Anyu following him, Qi Sijing slowed down his pace. "You've already apologized. If you still want their contact information, I'm sorry. I added someone randomly and I'll have to kneel on the scale when I get back."
Jiang Anyu: “…”
He couldn't take it anymore. He was angry when he saw Qi Juchen controlling Qi Sijing on Quxian Island. Now that he got to know Qi Sijing, he admired Qi Sijing and got even angrier when he thought of Qi Juchen.
He pursed his lips and said, "What's so good about Qi Juchen..."
Qi Sijing narrowed his eyes and looked back at Jiang Anyu, his eyes full of threats, "He is good at everything."
Jiang Anyu: “…”
Deadly poison.
Jiang Anyu: "Let me take you out, shall I?"
"No need," Qi Sijing lowered his eyelashes and glanced at Jiang Anyu's legs, "Go back to the ward and take good care of yourself. Bye."
Jiang Anyu tightened his grip on his crutch, thinking that Qi Sijing actually cared about him.
No, if this continues, he will become Qi Sijing's toxic fan.
