"That's not necessarily true."
Lin Hongfen retorted, "Doctor Mu, when we were trapped at the fire scene, everyone must have been looking after themselves.
Not everyone would risk their lives to save others like you do. You are Xixi's savior, there is no doubt about that."
"Yes, Doctor Mu, if you hadn't saved me, the beam would have hit my head.
If that were the case, I wouldn't even be able to survive. I'll remember your kindness in saving me. If you need my help in the future, just let me know!"
Ying Xixi patted her chest as she spoke, as if she was willing to go through fire and water for her brothers.
Lin Hongfen looked at her granddaughter and felt a bit amused and helpless.
Soon He Yi came over with a doctor.
The doctor and Mu Yan were old acquaintances, and they couldn't help but joke with each other as soon as they entered the door.
"Doctor Mu, I didn't expect you to be admitted to my department one day. Don't worry, you're fine. Just a fracture, abrasions, and smoke inhalation that affected your throat.
Just rest for a few months and you'll be fine. By the way, you need to take good care of your hand and don't hurt it again until it's fully healed."
"Okay, what about Ying Xixi? How is she?"
Mu Yan didn't care about his own situation, but instead asked about Ying Xixi's situation.
The male doctor was wearing a mask, so it was impossible to tell what his expression was.
But you can tell what his current mood is from his playful eyes.
"Don't worry, Doctor Mu. Thanks to someone's heroic rescue, this beautiful lady is fine. She just inhaled the smoke and it affected her throat. She will be fine after a few days of rest.
Dr. Mu, in your case, you may have to stay in the hospital for six or seven days before you can be discharged. I'm afraid you won't be able to go back to work directly after you are discharged.
You have to consider taking a leave of absence. As for this beautiful lady, there is nothing wrong. If she wants to be discharged from the hospital, she can leave today.
Well, that's all I have to say, I'm leaving now."
The male doctor talked a lot and then left.
"Uncle Mu, Aunt He, I'm going to go and complete my discharge procedures first. I'll come back later."
Ying Xixi spoke first.
"Xixi, let Aunt He help you with it. You're still getting the injection."
"No need, Aunt He. I'll just go to the nurse's station and remove the needle and then I can go."
Ying Xixi smiled and declined, then went out with her grandmother.
After the grandfather and grandson went out, He Yi reached out and poked Mu Yan's uninjured hand.
"Son, tell me the truth, do you like Xixi?
I am your mother, and I know that you are not such a kind-hearted person who is willing to risk your life to save others.
If you didn't have a crush on Xixi, you would never have stood up for her.
No, it should be said that it was impossible for you to have any contact with her from the beginning, let alone go to the temple together!"
Mu's father agreed, "Your mother is right. You are indeed like that. I can't think of any other reason except love."
Mu Yan's face showed no expression as he casually admitted, "Yes."
He Yi and Mu's father looked at each other, both very surprised.
"I told you! If this isn't love, then what is?
But son, when are you going to talk it out with Xixi?"
Mu Yan's expression was indifferent. "Wait a little longer. Now is not the time yet."
"Okay, we'll talk when you want to confess. Also, what I want to say is that it's best to tell Xixi your secret when you confess.
It's up to her to decide whether she wants to be with you or not.
We are a good family and we can't do something like that to deceive a little girl.
It depends on whether she is still willing to be with you after she knows your situation."
When talking about this, the family members' expressions were not very good.
"I will tell you that if she really doesn't want to accept it, I won't force her and won't delay her."
Mu Yan lowered his voice a bit.
After he knew his situation, he thought about living alone for the rest of his life.
This way you won't delay the other party.
But after gradually getting to know Ying Xixi, he became selfish.
He knew his own situation clearly, but still wanted to drag Ying Xixi into it.
But he would be honest with her, he didn't want to deceive her.
The atmosphere in the ward became depressed.
On the other side, Ying Xixi had no idea that such a conversation had taken place among the Mu family after she and her grandmother left.
She completed the discharge procedures and returned to Mu Yan's ward.
Mu Yan can walk now and his left hand can move, but his right hand cannot move. He can still take care of himself, but it is not very convenient.
Ying Xixi had agreed with the Mu couple that she would bring lunch to Mu Yan at noon, stay with Mu Yan during the day, and wait for the Mu couple to bring dinner.
Mu Yan doesn't need anyone to keep watch at night, so this arrangement is good.
Ying Xixi came to deliver lunch to Mu Yan at noon the next day. She had cooked the meal herself.
She had dinner with her grandmother at home and then came to the hospital to deliver the meal.
Mu Yan looked at the delicious food and smiled, "Thank you, thank you for your trouble."
"You're welcome, I'm just repaying you, Doctor Mu, for saving my life.
Try it and see if it suits your taste. I asked the doctor, and he said you should eat something light recently, so I made it very light.
Ying Xixi said as she handed the chopsticks to Mu Yan.
Mu Yan took a bite and his eyes lit up, "It's delicious!"
"That's good. Doctor Mu, take your time eating."
Ying Xixi sat back in her chair.
Mu Yan lowered his eyes while eating, and spoke casually, with a hint of joking.
"You can just call me by my name. Calling me Doctor Mu feels a bit awkward.
I think we have a life-long friendship.”
"Yes, we went through the fire together, so I'll just call you by your name. You can also just call me Xiaoying or Xixi.
It's too awkward to call out a name with three characters in a row."
Ying Xixi followed Mu Yan's meaning and spoke.
"Okay, Xixi."
Between the unfamiliar name Xiaoying and the intimate name Xixi, Mu Yan chose the latter.
Ying Xixi smiled and played with her cell phone.
The original owner had no job in this world.
Given the original owner's previous situation, few companies were willing to accept her.
But now she has recovered and is no different from a normal person, so she has to find something to do.
After all, she still has to stay in this world for decades.
We can't just live by collecting rent and living off our savings.
If you don't do something, it will get boring after a while.
But what can she do?
The original owner's major in college was library information and archives management. The reason he chose this major was because he was not suitable for communicating with others.
But now she has recovered and can communicate with others. If she does professional work, she would find it a bit boring given her personality.
