That night, Suiyi and her family of three slept together.
The next morning, after Suiyi got up, she pulled the father and son out of bed.
Rubbing her eyes, Xiao Nian Sui yawned, her little face flushed from sleep, looking incredibly cute.
"What's wrong?"
"I have an academic conference to attend today, so how about you give me a ride there in a bit?"
"You just got back yesterday, and you're still jet-lagged. Why don't you rest for a day or two first?"
"No, I don't feel comfortable staying at home. Look, there are so many people in the house, it would be like a three-way interrogation!"
"What are you afraid of? If you can't handle it, just close the door and let your son out."
"...Yeah, Mom, let Dad turn on the air conditioning. It's so scary, who would dare to talk to you then?"
"That's a terrible idea!"
"Yours isn't much better."
"Stop, or I'll throw you out." Sui Yi had a headache; it was happening again so early in the morning.
After Sui Yi spoke, neither of them dared to say anything more. They ignored the two of them and went to wash up.
"See? It's all your fault. You made your mom angry."
"It's your fault!"
"Get up!" Qi Muzhi patted Nian Sui's little bottom, making Nian Sui glare at him angrily.
"I'm a little adult now, can you stop patting my bottom?" he said seriously and righteously, his little face showing great seriousness.
"Tch! Get up quickly, otherwise your mother will leave alone and it will be just the two of us at home."
After saying that, the two quickly put on their clothes, got out of bed, and went to the bathroom. Qi Muzhi carried Nian Sui to a chair, and the two brushed their teeth together, their movements exactly the same.
Sui Yi shook her head and smiled, then walked out. The two exchanged knowing glances.
After washing and getting dressed neatly, they helped each other tidy up; the father and son were very loving.
"Set off!"
"receive!"
The two walked downstairs hand in hand, pushing open the door, leaving everyone downstairs stunned!
"Good morning, maternal grandparents, maternal grandparents!"
"Good luck every year!" Everyone looked at Nian Sui with affection. Xu's father went over, picked him up, put him on a chair to sit on, and served him a bowl of porridge.
"Why didn't you sleep a little longer? You're jet-lagged!"
"Mom is going to register for work today, and Dad and I are going to see her off. Then we'll buy a house next to Grandma's house to live in."
"Isn't it good to stay at Grandma's house?"
“That would be very hard on Grandma. She would have to take care of us too.”
"Hehe! You've taught Sui Sui so well!" Xu's mother said to Qi Muzhi with a smile.
"Yes! He's very well-behaved and cute."
After breakfast, Qi Muzhi borrowed a car from Brother Xu and took Suiyi to the International Medical Association.
Watching Sui Yi's figure disappear through the gate, Qi Muzhi looked at Nian Sui behind him.
Where to?
"Of course we should buy a car and a house. It's so inconvenient to live at Grandma's house. We have to keep our arguments to ourselves."
"You brat, always trying to steal your mother from your father, you have no filial piety at all. Don't you know you should respect your elders?"
"Dad, you're shameless! Did you forget the last two words? Don't you understand the importance of caring for children?"
"..."
Despite their arguments, they didn't get anything important done. They quickly bought a car and a house not far from Grandma's. They also went to a furniture store to buy furniture, and then returned home to start tidying up. Both of them were busy, striving to create a warm and welcoming home for Suiyi when she returned.
As for Suiyi, after joining the International Medical Association, she began a discussion within ten minutes. This time, the discussion focused on the clinical signs and symptoms of ALS patients.
"The symptoms of ALS are that over time, the muscles and limbs gradually stiffen, as we have observed..."
"...These are some of my bold ideas. I think we can start from these aspects. Everyone go back and think about them. If my plan is feasible, then we can study it together."
"Dr. Xu, the method you mentioned, which uses acupuncture from your country and some ancient herbal formulas, seems a bit too risky."
“Mr. Smith, don’t underestimate our national treasure. You should also know my reputation. In my case, medicine has no borders. What we can do is to integrate the strengths of all schools of thought and use the best treatment to address the specific symptoms.”
"I will go back and study Dr. Xu's suggestion."
"Sure, feel free to ask me anything if you have any questions."
"Great! It'll be a pleasure doing business with you."
"It's a pleasure to work with you."
The meeting lasted three hours. After Sui Yi came out, she was followed by several leading figures in China's medical field.
"Ms. Xu, do you think this method is feasible?"
"Of course it's feasible. To be honest, these plans are the result of countless experiments, and I have even successfully treated cases of ALS. The reason I'm sharing them now is simply to guide our country's medical skills to a higher level."
"Xiaoyuan, what are my plans next?"
"Dr. Xu still needs to go to Huadu Hospital to assume his post as president today."
"-_-||, isn't it tomorrow?" Sui Yi stopped and turned to look at her.
"Because we received a notice from above, stating that today is the date. And the hospital has already called to say they're ready!"
"All right!"
Sui Yi's schedule changed again to a meeting at Huadu Hospital to discuss her appointment.
I took out my phone and dialed the number. It was answered after only one ring!
"Mother!"
"Sui Sui, tell Daddy that I might be back very late because I have to go to work at the hospital, but you can see me on TV!"
