"What's the trouble? It's not a trouble at all. Sui Sui, I'll stay with you for a while. I'll go back after Miao Miao finishes the infusion." Ji Lin said.
Jiang Sui couldn't persuade him, so she could only let him stay there.
After eating a meat bun and a vegetarian bun, Jiang Sui was full.
At this time, a cup of hot water was handed to her. She reached out to take the hot water and drank two sips. When she was about to put down the cup, a big hand reached out again and took the cup away directly.
"Thank you, Brother Ji." Jiang Sui felt a little embarrassed.
"Don't keep saying thank you. You already call me brother, so why are you being so polite to me? Would you be so polite to Brother Jiang?" Ji Lin asked.
"That's different."
"How are they different? They look the same to me!"
Jiang Sui lowered her head, pursed her lips and smiled, then raised her head and asked, "Then I know, you want to be my brother. Okay, in that case, I won't be polite to you."
...
...
Ji Lin was stunned and didn't know what to say in response for a moment.
He didn't want her to be polite to him, but he didn't really want to be her brother! What does brother mean? He wanted more than that!
"Sui Sui, actually I..."
Before Ji Lin could finish his words, the nurse came over with a bottle of new medicine.
"Let's change the medicine. This is the last bottle of medicine. After the infusion, you can rest."
This interrupted Ji Lin's words, and it would be abrupt if he wanted to continue. Therefore, Ji Lin could only hold back and look for a suitable opportunity to test Jiang Sui next time.
It was already late at night when Ji Lin returned from the hospital. As soon as he got home, he lay down on the sofa in the living room exhausted. He originally wanted to take a rest before washing up, but he didn't expect to fall asleep while lying down.
The next morning, Zhang Lanzhi got up to make breakfast and saw Ji Lin sleeping soundly on the sofa. She slapped him twice to wake him up.
"Wake up! Tell me, did you sleep here last night? Or did you just get up and lie here and fall asleep again?"
Ji Lin was half asleep. When he was woken up by his mother, he turned over and sat up. He rubbed his tired face and tried to get rid of the sleepiness: "I slept here last night. Mom, what time is it now?"
"A little after six."
"Oh, no hurry, I have class at nine o'clock, there are still two hours. Mom, please make me something to eat, I want to eat the hand-rolled noodles you made."
Zhang Lanzhi pouted and couldn't help but start to ridicule her son: "What? Were you so excited about the date last night that you couldn't sleep? If you were this excited, why did you eat hand-rolled noodles? You're so happy that you're full!"
Ji Lin laughed twice: "Mom, what are you thinking about? I haven't confessed my feelings to her yet!"
"What?" Zhang Lanzhi looked at her son's silly face and couldn't help herself. "What are you busying yourself with all day? How long has it been? And you still haven't confessed your feelings? Go and confess your feelings. If I were that girl, I would just find someone else."
"Why?"
"Because you take too long, I get impatient waiting for you."
Ji Lin couldn't help laughing when he heard it: "Mom, who do you think your son is? Everyone is waiting for me to confess my love for him. Now your son likes the girl, but the girl doesn't like your son. Confessing too early will only scare her away."
"Really?" Zhang Lanzhi looked unconvinced.
"Of course! Your son knows the plan of this matter! I am a senior talent in the Army Command College. I have both military force and wisdom..."
"Haha." When Ji Yuanjun came down from the upstairs and passed by Ji Lin, "I just smiled and didn't say anything."
Zhang Lanzhi burst into laughter at her husband's words.
"Don't laugh, mom. You're so full of energy that it makes my head hurt." Ji Lin rubbed his forehead and stood up from the sofa. "I'm going to wash up. Please cook quickly. Oh, by the way, make more breakfast so I can take some away."
"Why? Planning to eat it for lunch?"
"Won't it be soaked?"
"Then why take it away?"
"Just prepare it as I tell you to. Don't ask any more questions." Ji Lin sent his mother away with just two words and went into the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth.
"What's going on?" Ji Yuanjun approached his wife and asked.
"It's probably for that girl. I heard some noise in the living room last night at around 2 a.m. You said your son didn't come back until 2 a.m. and didn't express his feelings to that girl. These two stayed together for most of the night. What were they doing?" Zhang Lanzhi was confused. "No, I have to go ask."
"Don't ask. It's probably because your son didn't tell you. Do we need to guess? A man and a woman, both of them are young and hot-blooded, what can they do? Your son definitely doesn't want you to know what he did, so he lied to you on purpose."
"Oh, am I going to have a grandchild soon? I have to talk to him. He must be responsible for the girl and can't just do it casually!"
Ji Lin was brushing his teeth in the bathroom when he heard his parents' discussion and spat out a mouthful of water.
He quickly rinsed his mouth, wiped it and came out: "I am really impressed by your imagination, this is not even a clue. I came back at two o'clock last night because Sui Sui's little niece was sick and hospitalized. I arranged for them to stay in the military hospital. The child had encephalitis and was very ill. The examination and infusion lasted until two o'clock in the evening. Have I made it clear now? Do you two understand?"
Ji Yuanjun looked Ji Lin up and down and said, "Stupid!"
Ji Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Who did you learn this word from?"
"Hurry up! If you can't bring your daughter-in-law back for the New Year, then you can't come back for the New Year." Zhang Lanzhi gave him an ultimatum.
"My wife is counting on you for this meal, Mom, thank you for your help."
"Bah!"
An hour later, Ji Lin went to the hospital carrying a thermos bucket. Jiang Sui had woken up and was feeding Jiang Miao water.
"How are you? Are you feeling better, Miaomiao?"
Jiang Miaomiao nodded: "Thank you uncle, I'm better now."
Ji Lin handed the thermos bucket to Jiang Sui: "Are you hungry? There are hand-rolled noodles in it. My mother made them early in the morning. Eat them while they are hot, and don't let them go bad."
Jiang Sui took it quickly, feeling very embarrassed: "I'm sorry to trouble you."
"No trouble, my mother is very happy."
Jiang Sui understood what he said. She lowered her eyes and was thinking about how to tell Ji Lin not to waste his time with her.
"Sui Sui, are you okay? Don't think too much. I told my mom that my comrade-in-arms was in the hospital and asked her to make noodles for him. Don't think too much and don't feel stressed."
Jiang Sui suddenly raised her head, and when she saw the two dark bruises under Ji Lin's eyelids, she couldn't even say no.
"What's wrong, Sui Sui?" Ji Lin saw Jiang Sui's complicated expression and was afraid that he had said something he shouldn't have.
"It's okay." Jiang Sui smiled and said, "I like hand-rolled noodles."
