After Li's mother left, Qi Jingchuan took out the paternity test and handed it to Lu Zhizhou, who read it to the end at a glance.
"Little Princess Ranran, you can put your heart at ease now!"
Somehow, Li Ran discovered that Qi Jingchuan and Lu Zhizhou liked to rub her head whether they were there or not, but her head was not a ball that needed to be rubbed by them every day.
After the two of them coaxed Li Ran to sleep, Lu Zhizhou called Qi Jingchuan and temporarily left Li Ran's ward.
The floor where Li Ran was was the VIP floor of the hospital, and there were very few people there. The two of them found a deserted place and prepared to chat.
Qi Jingchuan took out a cigarette from the cigarette box and handed it to Lu Zhizhou. During the time that Li Ran had been unconscious, the two seemed to have developed this bad habit.
The two men who grew up together had a very high level of tacit understanding. When Qi Jingchuan took out his cigarette, Lu Zhizhou handed him his lighter.
"Click." The sound of a lighter appeared along with swirling smoke.
"What's wrong with you? I feel like you're getting more and more upset." Qi Jingchuan frowned and tapped his knee with his free hand.
This is a little movement he makes when he is upset, anxious, or irritable.
Lu Zhizhou took a puff of his cigarette and then put it out in the ashtray. He was still not used to this kind of thing that men liked so much.
"I had a dream..." Lu Zhizhou struggled for a moment, but decided to tell Qi Jingchuan.
Qi Jingchuan raised his chin, motioning Lu Zhizhou to continue, "I dreamed... Xiao Ranran died."
Qi Jingchuan frowned.
"I was standing in Xiao Ranran's funeral hall. In front of me was a huge black-and-white photo. Aunt Li was being supported by Brother Li Qing, crying uncontrollably."
"Did you dream..." Qi Jingchuan found it difficult to speak, but forced himself to speak, "Did you dream about how Xiaoran died?"
Lu Zhizhou shook his head. It was precisely because he had never dreamed of how Li Ran died that he was so anxious.
"No... Have you noticed that Xiao Ranran fainted for a much longer time this time than last time? I'm worried if there's a next time..."
Qi Jingchuan also put out his cigarette and let out a long breath, "Don't think too much. You also said that it was just a dream."
"But I've had this dream for a long time! I really feel that this dream is very real. At the beginning, I dreamed that Xiao Ranran was sitting in front of me in high school, and I secretly stared at her back every day..."
Qi Jingchuan interrupted Lu Zhizhou, "Xiao Ran is in Class 1 of high school, and you are in Class 3. How can you see her back? So the dream is just a dream, Xiao Ran will not die.
At least I won't let her die before me, I will protect her with everything I have."
Lu Zhizhou chuckled, "Don't make it sound like you're the only one who's so affectionate."
Qi Jingchuan looked at Lu Zhizhou deeply, "Do you like Xiaoran?"
The two of them just laid out their feelings that had been hidden in their hearts for a long time.
"Yes, I like Xiao Ranran. I have liked her for a long time, don't you too?" Lu Zhizhou answered firmly.
Qi Jingchuan tapped his fingers on his knees again, and suddenly thought of Li Ran talking to him at the base. She told him at that time that she felt a family relationship with Lu Zhizhou.
But both his reason and emotions told him that he should not be the one to tell Lu Zhizhou such words.
It is better to let the emotional issues be handled by the parents themselves.
"Okay, let's compete fairly." Qi Jingchuan thought his speech was perfect, highlighting his tolerance and magnanimity as a patriarch.
