Pediatrics.
"Mr. Li, you should go home and rest. I can look after Xiaobao here. Don't worry, I won't leave the child's side for a moment while Miss Su is away."
"It's okay. I promised Mumu that I would take good care of Xiaobao for her."
Li Anran rubbed her temples, but her gaze awkwardly avoided the child.
Even now, he still can't accept the child.
He tried many times and worked hard to convince himself to accept the child.
But every time he saw the child, he couldn't help but think of Liao Nanxing, and then the video from the hotel would play on repeat in his mind... Finally, the image would freeze on the fat, big-eared face of Lin Shijia when Liao Nanxing pushed Su Mu into Lin Shijia's arms.
It wasn't that he deliberately tried to think about it, but that he simply couldn't forget it!
"Then you take good care of Xiaobao, I'm going to sleep for a while." Li Anran turned over, finally freeing her from looking at the child.
The phone screen lights up; a message has arrived.
When you open it, there are only two simple words: "Done."
Li Anran sat up excitedly.
"What happened next? What did Gu Yao say again?" Li Anran muttered to herself, excitedly slapping her forehead.
At that moment, all his thoughts were on Su Mu in the meeting room, so much so that when he was talking to Gu Yao, his attention was not on Gu Yao at all.
More than ten minutes later, Li Anran lay down again.
He really couldn't remember, so he planned to call and ask tomorrow.
This was the most restful night Li Anran had slept in the past few days.
He woke up as soon as it was light.
When the time reached 9 o'clock, I couldn't wait to dial Gu Yao's number.
Meanwhile, on the other end of the phone, Gu Yao and Zhou Chunhua were having breakfast face to face.
The phone on the table vibrated.
The two people who were talking both looked at their phones at the same time.
Gu Yao put down his chopsticks and said slowly, "You eat first. I'll take this call."
After Zhou Chunhua nodded, Gu Yao picked up his phone and turned to walk towards the balcony.
I walked through the glass door and stood on the balcony.
Gu Yao didn't forget to turn around and close the glass door.
"Speaking."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Anran's excited voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Attorney Gu, I'm so sorry to bother you so early. But my situation is very urgent. Here's the thing, after I receive the letter of understanding, what should I do next?"
Gu Yao leaned against the wall, his gentle gaze falling on the woman on the other side of the glass door.
He felt content when he saw her eating the breakfast he had made with a satisfied smile on her face.
Since moving in, he has experienced fewer and fewer bouts of insomnia.
I'm getting more sleep every day than I used to get in a whole week.
Even his doctor said that his health has been improving recently.
And all of this credit goes to her.
Without her, he wouldn't be where he is today.
"Gu Lu?"
Li Anran's voice rang in his ears again, and Gu Yao finally came back to his senses.
"They agreed so quickly?" Gu Yao raised an eyebrow in disdain.
He truly hadn't expected that Liao Nanxing wouldn't even last the second night before surrendering.
This kind of person is not good enough for her at all.
"Don't worry about that. What should I do next?"
Gu Yao pushed up his glasses: "A mental evaluation. As long as it can be proven that she was having an episode during the process, there shouldn't be any problems."
"Okay. Thank you, Attorney Gu."
"You're welcome. Don't forget to pay the consultation fee." With that, Gu Yao hung up the phone.
Even if it means causing trouble for Liao Nanxing and that old hag, it won't stop me from making money.
As for Su Mu, he still said he would help her get out, otherwise she would be too heartbroken to sleep at night if she couldn't get any clues about Nini.
I opened the glass door and sat down at the dining table.
"The porridge is cold, let me serve you a fresh bowl."
"Okay," he agreed readily.
As Gu Yao ate the porridge that Zhou Chunhua served him, he felt that the bland porridge had become sweet, even sweeter than sweet porridge with sugar.
Just as Gu Yao was enjoying his porridge, the doorbell rang.
"So early... who could it be?" Zhou Chunhua put down her spoon and got up to open the door.
Gu Yao couldn't help but peek over as well.
The door opened, and a cluster of bright red blocked Zhou Chunhua's view.
She involuntarily took two steps back.
"Did you go to the wrong floor?"
"How could I have gone to the wrong floor? So, how is it? Do you like it?"
As the familiar voice rang out, Zhou Chunhua couldn't help but frown.
"You...you actually came out!"
"I've been there so many times since I was little, it's like my home. I'm used to it, and I figured out how to get out a long time ago. So, are you happy to see me?"
Lu Ming's nonchalant face appeared at the other end of the bouquet.
"Please leave!" Zhou Chunhua said, and then turned to close the door.
Lu Ming reached out and stopped the door from closing, asking in confusion, "You don't like roses? Then I'll throw this away and buy you other flowers later."
He raised his hand and tossed a large bouquet of roses into the corner.
"I told you to leave!" Zhou Chunhua tightened her grip, trying to close the door.
However, this amount of strength was practically nothing to Lu Ming.
"It's all that fifth brother's fault. He even called himself a master of romance and asked me to deliver flowers to you. I'll settle the score with that kid later. Don't be angry. Come on, I'll take you out for a walk to clear your head."
As he spoke, Lu Ming reached out his hand.
Zhou Chunhua reached behind the door and pulled out a baseball bat, ready to swing it at Lu Ming's head.
