Around 9 p.m., Ding Qiunan pushed open the study door and walked in.
Li Chu was lying down.
“Honey, I just came in and saw Huihui writing there too.”
"Of course, how could we possibly finish writing it in three days if we didn't hurry?"
Li Chu said without even looking up.
"Can you finish writing it?"
"If you're serious, there's no problem."
Then Ding Qiunan started talking non-stop, trying to make conversation.
"Honey, this isn't the way you're trying to help our daughter," Li Chu said, putting down his pen with a hint of helplessness.
Ding Qiunan, who had been standing by the desk, seized the opportunity and slipped onto his lap, not forgetting to raise her arms to hug his neck.
"Hehe~ You noticed!"
"You just want to bother me and make me unable to finish writing in three days, so that even if my daughter hasn't finished writing either, I can't say anything."
“But this is really too much. It’s a classical Chinese text of 100,000 to 200,000 words, and you can’t make a single mistake. Three days is a bit too tight.”
Ding Qiunan swayed her body coquettishly, then turned around and said, "Let's see how much you copied."
The blank sheet of paper on the desk was already more than half-written.
That's right, it's just blank paper, not letter paper. The lines are aligned neatly, and the characters are all the same size.
Huh?
Ding Qiunan only realized why her man had stopped writing when she read further.
She suppressed a laugh and turned back: "So you can copy things wrong too!"
Seeing his wife's trembling lips, Li Chu rolled his eyes in annoyance.
"I'm a human, not a god. With your little mouth constantly chattering away, how could I possibly be wrong?"
"Hahahaha..." I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Alright, let's not write anymore since she won't let me anyway," Li Chu said, pulling his wife to her feet with a single effort.
I'll get this woman to sleep first before I come back to write for a while.
...
Li Chu and Wen Hui sat facing each other in the study, looking through each other's copied materials.
"Huihui, have you figured out why I punished you?"
"I've figured it out, Dad. Ever since I left school to join the army, it feels like I've been floating in the air. I've been indifferent to many things, as if I've just been wasting my days."
"It's good that you can figure out where your problem lies." Li Chu nodded: "Old Sun told me once before that you seemed a little careless."
I thought you were just going from school to the army all of a sudden and needed time to adjust, so I didn't tell you. I didn't expect you to be like this for so long, to the point that you don't even care about your own affairs anymore. In that case, I, as your father, have to step in.
"Dad, I'm sorry, I've let you down."
"No, no, no, Huihui, you're wrong about that. You're not just disappointing me, you're not taking responsibility for your own life. You're all grown up now, you're about to get married and become someone's wife, and in two years you'll be a mother. You must learn to take responsibility for your own life before you can talk about anything else."
"I remember, Dad."
"Hehe," Li Chu suddenly chuckled. He pointed to the stack of books Wen Hui had copied on the table and said, "When you three were little, you were sometimes too naughty, so I would punish you by making you copy books. You often helped each other copy, thinking I wouldn't notice. This time, you did it all by yourself. Not bad, that's a kind of growing up too."
Li Wenhui raised her hand and wiped away the tears streaming from her eyes.
"Dad, do you know how the three of us helped each other back then?"
"Heh, I taught you all to write. Although you all write in the same style, you can't change your own characteristics. How could I not see it? The reason I haven't exposed you is because even if one of you makes a mistake and it affects the other two, no one complains. Instead, you help each other. This makes me very happy, so I never expose you."
As he spoke, Li Chu saw tears streaming down his daughter's face again, so he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her.
"Okay, stop crying. It's good to recognize your mistakes, but it's not enough to just recognize them; you also need to correct them. Tomorrow when you get to the hospital, go find Director Sun and admit your mistakes, and then learn from him properly."
"Yes, Dad, I've got it."
"Go on, get some rest tonight. You haven't slept well these past two days."
Watching his daughter's retreating figure, Li Chu raised his hand to stroke the stubble on his chin, lost in thought.
This is his first time being a father, both in this life and the past. The education of children when they are young and when they grow up are clearly two different systems.
Ugh, this is really a headache!
...
Looking at the radiant George in front of him, Li Chu twitched the corner of his mouth, which could be considered a smile in response.
George and his group arrived this morning, bringing his personal doctor with them, as he needed his doctor to review the test results.
After they arrived, they first underwent a comprehensive examination at the hospital. It wasn't until most of the test results came out in the afternoon that they came to the consultation room.
When they met Li Chu, before George could even speak, his personal physician Mark couldn't help but speak first.
How did you do that?
Seeing the blank look on the other person's face, he thought Li Chu couldn't understand English, so he quickly signaled the translator next to him to translate what he said.
“Mark, Dr. Li can understand English, so he probably doesn’t understand what you’re asking.”
"Uh... Dr. Li, I'm sorry, I got a little too excited. I wanted to ask you how you managed to reduce the number of cancer cells in the body without surgery or chemotherapy?"
"I'm sorry, Dr. Li, this is my personal physician, Mark. He meant no harm, he just got a little too excited after seeing my test results."
George quickly pulled Mark aside and explained that he had lost all of the arrogance of a multinational corporation president and was afraid of offending Dr. Li, who might refuse to treat him, which would be troublesome.
Li Chu smiled slightly and didn't say much, but simply pointed to the chair in front of him, indicating that George should sit there.
Mark was getting anxious when he realized that no one was paying attention to him. He was about to interrupt when an embassy staff member pulled him back and gestured with his eyes to the person behind him.
beqege.
When he turned around and saw Liu Dazhuang's sharp eyes, he immediately sobered up.
When he came this morning, George told him to talk and do less, and to listen and observe more. He also explained the background of the doctor he was seeing.
The shock of the test results made him lose his composure. He then realized that this was not his country; he was now facing a doctor within a violent institution, and he could not act recklessly here.
