The boy opened his eyes, saw the unfamiliar ceiling, and froze.
Where is this?
Suddenly he remembered that he, his grandmother, father, and sister were guests at the Su family's old house.
He was about to get up when he noticed a leg draped over his stomach, which explained why his stomach felt cold.
Ji Hua was speechless for a moment, then raised his hand and put Shen Zhifan's leg down.
Shen Zhifan slowly woke up and met a pair of eyes as cold as ice.
"Brother Hua, what's wrong?" I wonder if he did something wrong.
Ji Hua said calmly, "It's nothing, get up."
The Su family's breakfast table was extremely lively, thanks to Gu Niansi's ability to liven up the atmosphere.
After dinner, Gu Niansi took Ji Han'er out to play again. They spent some time sunbathing on the lawn, some time relaxing in the pavilion, and some time playing in the stream.
Just as the two were having a great time, two voices rang out at the same time.
"What are you doing?" Both of them were stunned.
Gu Niansi and Ji Han'er looked at each other in bewilderment. "Sister Han, they always talk in exactly the same way."
When Ji Han'er saw her sister asking her, she shook her head awkwardly.
Shen Shiyi spent several days in the hospital, feeling unwell all over. However, her injuries were severe, and she had to remain in the hospital.
Bored, she thought of her children and decided to video chat with them. The air seemed to freeze for a moment when Shen Zhifan's phone rang.
"My phone rang."
Shen Zhifan was taken aback, and looked down at the contact name on his phone in surprise.
"Hello, Mom."
The other three were taken aback and all turned to look at him.
"Fanfan, what are you doing?"
"Hua and I are by the stream on the lawn, while Han and Niannian are playing in the water."
Thinking of the stream near his home, Shen Shiyi solemnly gave him these instructions.
"Be careful, and tell them that girls shouldn't play for too long."
After Shen Zhifan answered the phone, she turned on the speakerphone, and all the children heard their mother's voice at the same time.
"Mom, I took Han-jie to play in the water, it was so much fun!"
Hearing her daughter's praise, Shen Shiyi smiled slightly.
"Okay, but you need to be careful about your health. It's not suitable for girls to play in ice water for a long time."
Touched by her mother's words of concern, Ji Han'er replied.
"Don't worry, Mom. My sister and I will stop playing after a little while."
"Okay, Han'er, you'll have to take care of your little sister today. Once Mom is better, I'll take you shopping."
Ji Han'er's eyes lit up. "Okay, Mom."
Shen Shiyi heard the joy in her daughter's voice and felt a pang of sadness. These past ten years have been tough for the two siblings. She could only try to be kinder to them in the future.
Gu Niansi chatted with her mother and stopped playing in the water.
"Mom, Niannian will take you to see your younger brother and sister."
Seeing his younger sister holding his phone, Shen Zhifan was afraid she might accidentally drop it.
Qin's mother, Su Fei, and Ji's mother were playing with Su's babies in the toy area of the living room.
"Grandma, we're back."
Everyone looked over and saw two adults and two children appear in the living room. Ji Hua felt very awkward when he suddenly saw so many eyes staring at him.
Qin's mother smiled and beckoned the children over, saying, "Come on, play with your younger brother and sister for a while."
On the day Shen Shiyi was discharged from the hospital, Su Ningrong, Qin's mother, Ji's mother, and several children all came to the hospital.
Fearing his wife would get tired from walking, Qin Ziming simply picked her up and carried her into the elevator. Shen Shiyi was so frightened that she clung tightly to his neck.
"I'll carry you down."
"No need." There are so many people here, it would be too awkward.
Everyone watched this scene with smiles, and then followed.
Seeing her father hug her mother, Gu Niansi covered her mouth and giggled. Seeing her giggle, Ji Han'er lowered his head shyly.
Inside the Lincoln, Shen Shiyi felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Don't hug me in public next time, it's not a good thing."
Qin Ziming listened to the conversation while simultaneously playing with his wife's hands.
"I'm just worried about you." Sigh, even that's wrong.
Seeing her husband's aggrieved expression, Shen Shiyi gave an awkward smile.
"I'm just discussing this with you."
Qin Ziming embraced his wife and saw that after half a month of recuperation, her face had finally gained some weight, so he reached out and pinched it.
Slightly in pain, Shen Shiyi frowned and asked, "What?"
Qin Ziming felt embarrassed and continued to hold his wife tightly.
Upon seeing the car arrive at the Su family's old house, Aunt Li quickly came out of the house.
"Young Madam, quickly step over the brazier to get rid of bad luck."
Shen Shiyi was taken aback for a moment, but she did as she was told.
As she reached the door, Shen Shiyi received another "holy water" baptism before finally walking side by side with her husband into the living room.
Seeing her two children with bright, sparkling eyes, she bent down and squatted down.
"Yechen, Xiaozhi, Mommy's back. Come here, give me a hug."
Little Gardenia stumbled towards her mother first, and Shen Shiyi gently picked up her daughter. Su Yechen burst into tears upon seeing this.
"Waaaaah..."
The couple were stunned by what they saw, and Shen Shiyi gestured for her husband to hold their son.
The tall man bent down, picked up his crying son, and began to comfort him.
"Oh, Yechen, be good. Mommy is holding your little sister, and Daddy is holding you."
The two sat down with their children in their arms, and Shen Shiyi looked up at her two sons and two daughters who were standing.
"Come here, little ones, and see your little brother and sister."
Gu Niansi skipped over, while Shen Zhifan calmly walked over, leaving Ji Hua and Ji Han'er looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Mom, my little sister is more well-behaved than my little brother."
Qin Ziming quickly looked up and put his index finger to his lips. "Shh, Niannian, don't let your little brother hear."
The son seems a bit stingy, though I don't know if it's just his perception.
With Shen Shiyi's return, the family enjoyed a lively lunch together.
Aunt Li started preparing early, and lunch was plentiful, ranging from light to spicy, and from meat to vegetables.
It's been a long time since I've experienced this warm and lively way of dining.
Shen Shiyi picked up the serving chopsticks and put food on the plates for all the children.
Ji Hua was stunned when he saw the chicken that suddenly appeared in the bowl, as well as the chicken soup on the side.
Don't come to the hospital carrying orange lilies; you'll find nothing there.
I was so annoyed by what I saw. When I saw the lilies in my arms, I threw them in the trash can and left in a fit of anger.
Ji Yunfeng was also planning to go. Fortunately, he had Wu Tongyao send people to keep an eye on the area, so he didn't come up empty-handed.
Thinking of his beloved who had already gone home, Ji Yunfeng walked dejectedly on the bridge.
Nangong Zixin never expected that she would run into an acquaintance while enjoying the breeze and scenery on the bridge.
"Yunfeng?"
Ji Yunfeng looked in the direction of the sound and saw Nangong Zixin wearing a red halter dress, her long hair blowing in the wind.
What are you doing here?
"I was wondering what you were doing here."
The two enjoyed the night view and chatted by the bridge for a while, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Their chat was interrupted by a call from Ji Yunfeng. Upon seeing the note, Ji Yunfeng frowned slightly.
"mom."
"Son, are you coming home tonight?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yunfeng glanced at Nangong Zixin.
"No, I'll sleep in my apartment."
Ji's mother hung up the phone in disappointment, her face clouded with worry as she thought of her son who had grown distant from her.
Upon seeing this, Ji's father sighed helplessly and shook his head.
