Shen Zhihuan was amused by her playful tone and looked at the little girl as if she were her own little sister.
I miss you too.
The two walked hand in hand to the bedside and sat down. Shen Zhihuan stopped Cheng Wan from getting up to make room for them and subconsciously placed her hand on Cheng Wan's wrist.
After carefully examining her for a long time and confirming that Cheng Wan's pulse was not as weak as before, he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Miss Cheng, you're recovering well. If you continue like this, you should be able to be discharged after another ten days to half a month of recuperation."
"I just discussed with Director Zeng and we prescribed a formula to replenish your qi and blood. Remember to take it on time every day."
When Cheng Wan fell ill before, she lost too much blood and her pulse was undetectable.
Shen Zhihuan felt heartbroken whenever she thought about it, so she took extra care of her in this regard.
Cheng Wan knew that Shen Zhihuan had put in a lot of effort for her, and she was extremely grateful.
“Miss Chen, thank you so much. If it weren’t for your timely help, I probably wouldn’t be lying here, and I wouldn’t have the chance to see my parents and sister again.”
"It's nothing, just a small favor. Given the relationship between our two families, it's only right that I help you. Don't worry about it."
Shen Zhihuan curled her lips and smiled gently.
The chilly feeling instantly dissipated, replaced by a strong sense of warmth.
Seeing her expression, Cheng Wan felt much more relaxed and mustered up some courage to ask her.
"If you don't mind, please don't call me Miss Cheng anymore. It's too formal and polite. It's better to just call me by my name."
She wanted to be friends with Shen Zhihuan, but she wasn't sure what Shen Zhihuan's feelings were, so her tone was particularly hesitant.
Shen Zhihuan smiled generously at her and readily agreed.
"Okay, Wanwan, you can just call me by my name from now on."
The two smiled at each other, and immediately felt that the distance between them had shortened considerably.
Cheng Wan was already very close to Shen Zhihuan, and this feeling became even stronger after seeing her in person.
She wasn't a talkative person, but for some reason, she couldn't stop chatting with Shen Zhihuan.
Shen Zhihuan could tell that Cheng Wan's calm demeanor was merely a facade.
Being murdered by her husband and mother-in-law, and losing her unborn child, was a devastating blow to Cheng Wan.
Although she has woken up, her mental state has not yet fully recovered.
Shen Zhihuan understood Cheng Wan's feelings and felt particularly sorry for her experience, so she gently and patiently advised her throughout.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, it's not your fault."
“A blessed woman does not enter a family without blessings. Wanwan, you are a very good girl. It is their loss to miss out on you.”
Chen Zhihuan's sweet voice seems to possess an extraordinary power to soothe people's hearts.
Cheng Wan felt her restless heart gradually calm down, and after the IV drip was finished, she fell asleep without realizing it.
"Uncle, Aunt, Xiangling, there's something I want to tell you."
After tucking Cheng Wan in, Shen Zhihuan pulled Song Xunying, Cheng Yuanfang, and Cheng Xiangling aside and whispered to them about Cheng Wan's situation.
"While taking care of Wanwan's physical health, we must also pay special attention to her mental well-being. If we sense that she is feeling down, we must provide timely guidance and support."
"Wanwan has already suffered a lot of grievances this time, and we really can't let her suffer any more psychological trauma."
Song Xunying, Cheng Yuanfang, and Cheng Xiangling all trusted Shen Zhihuan implicitly, and their expressions immediately turned serious upon hearing her say that.
"Zhihuan, thank you for reminding us. Don't worry, we will definitely take this seriously."
Cheng Xiangling is not very old, but she has a very good relationship with her older sister, Cheng Wan.
Cheng Wan suffered such serious injuries, and she was also deeply saddened, always thinking of ways to help.
After hearing Shen Zhihuan's instructions to take good care of Cheng Wan's mental health, Cheng Xiangling took her arm and asked her questions earnestly for a long time.
She was afraid of missing any details or making any oversights.
While the two were talking, she even made fun of herself.
"I'm no good at seeing doctors. My mom always says that all I have is this little mouth that can talk a lot and be a little likable. I'll just try my best to make my sister happy."
Shen Zhihuan chuckled and gently touched her hair.
"It's a great thing to be everyone's source of joy."
She quietly looked at Cheng Xiangling's lively eyes and brows, feeling a little envious that Cheng Wan had such a younger sister.
Perhaps all sisters in other families are like this.
Even though they inevitably bicker and tease each other in normal times, they will take care of each other and think of each other when something really happens.
Only a family environment as unfair as the Shen family could foster such a twisted sisterly relationship between her and Shen Ling.
When Shen Zhihuan was a child, she did think about getting close to her only sister.
But Shen Ling repeatedly showed her with facts that they were more suited to be enemies than sisters.
Having lived through two lifetimes, Shen Zhihuan has completely lost all hope for the Shen family and no longer cares whether they can give her any affection.
However, when she saw how close Cheng Wan and Cheng Xiang Ling were, she couldn't help but sigh.
"Having a sister like you is truly a lucky thing."
Cheng Xiangling had lived in the tenement for so long that although she had never witnessed the confrontation between Shen Zhihuan and Shen Ling, she knew that the two had a strained relationship.
I had also heard about Shen Zhihuan's public announcement of severing ties with his family.
She's very protective of her own, even though Shen Zhihuan has such a good personality.
It's obvious that the Shen family is to blame for the breakdown of their relationship!
Cheng Xiangling noticed Shen Zhihuan's mood, so she deliberately snuggled up to her and rested her head on her shoulder.
"Actually, Sister Zhihuan, I have a small request."
Soft hair rolls around in the hollows of the shoulders, and when it brushes against the skin, it brings a faint ticklish sensation.
Shen Zhihuan felt her heart melt as she watched Cheng Xiangling cling to her and act coquettishly. She couldn't help but reach out and stroke Cheng Xiangling's hair.
The tone of his voice also carried an unconscious doting affection.
"Just tell me what you want. As long as it's within my power, I won't refuse."
"Don't be so serious."
Cheng Xiangling chuckled at her, then awkwardly fidgeted with her fingers.
"Actually, it's nothing serious. I just... I want to be your little sister."
After finally getting her thoughts out, her face turned bright red.
Cheng Xiangling covered her burning cheeks, feeling utterly ashamed.
"Sister Zhihuan, I just think you are very nice and kind. When I'm with you, it's like I'm with my own sister. I really like you, that's why I said that."
Song Xunying and Cheng Yuanfang were both shocked when they heard their daughter's words.
