Chapter 357 Kidnapping Mao Mao, a Crime Added to the Crime
The fact that Allen's arm had no small red dots from needle pricks was a little secret between him and the doctor, which he inadvertently revealed to others.
Left with no other option, Allen resorted to bribing everyone with imported almond chocolate.
The children ate until their mouths and hands were covered in black grime, then patted their chests and promised they wouldn't tell anyone.
They are very loyal!
"If I cry loudly, will I not get pricked with a needle?" Mao Mao asked, eating chocolate. "But I get a reward for getting a shot. My chef uncle makes me lots of delicious food."
Xu Yizhao shook his head vigorously and held out the back of his hand, which had bruises left from the IV drip.
"That's not how it is, Mao Mao. Look, I got so many injections, even in my butt! It hurts so much! But my mom hasn't given me any more snacks as a reward."
Cheng Manxuan nodded: "Yes, I didn't have any snacks when I got my injection."
Mao Mao nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite: "Oh..."
She is a very healthy baby and has hardly ever been sick. As for injections, it was her first time getting one during her last checkup.
“But I cried too.” Xu Yizhao clutched the round chocolate ball, his unwillingness overpowering his appetite: “I cried so loudly that even the doctor didn’t agree.”
Mao Mao looked at Allen with her big, curious eyes.
Allen thought for a moment: "Your crying isn't big enough."
Xu Yizhao: "..."
So annoying!
He stuffed two chocolate balls into his mouth in one gulp, his whole face puffed up with anger.
"If I cry loud enough, I won't need a shot?" Cheng Manxuan asked.
Allen nodded vigorously: "Yes!"
Cheng Manxuan was tempted: "Then I'll try it next time."
Mao Mao looked around.
She touched the small red dots on her arm.
Compared to injections, Mao Mao prefers the eight meat and eight vegetable dishes made by the chef.
After she showed off her little hero badge, everyone would praise her and kiss her. The mothers would hold her face and kiss her from her forehead to her cheeks, making Mao Mao's little face rosy. Mao Mao loved it.
Mao Mao decided not to try it.
Xu Yizhao said confidently, "Next time I get a shot, I'll cry really loud, so loud that the whole hospital can hear me. I don't want a shot!"
Mao Mao thought for a moment, then raised her chubby arm and showed off her little hero medal again.
“Then you don’t have this.” Mao Mao’s eyes narrowed, and sweet dimples appeared on her cheeks: “Only Mao Mao has it.”
Xu Yizhao: "..."
Cheng Manxuan immediately said, "I want one too. I'll get my shot next time and show it to Mao Mao."
Kids at this age love to show off the most.
Whether to get a shot or be a little hero who can take one, it's a real dilemma.
Xu Yizhao stammered for a long time before slowly pulling down his sleeve: "I...I'm better than Allen."
“But Allen is sick and needs surgery. My brother said that surgery means cutting open his stomach and then stitching it up.” Mao Mao gestured on her lower abdomen: “…This long. My fourth brother has so many.”
Lou Yansui has many scars on her hands and feet, which are the marks left from multiple surgeries.
In Mao Mao's eyes, her fourth brother was covered in countless medals of honor. Her brother was a great hero!
Xu Yizhao and Allen were both terrified and turned pale.
The mark left by the injection was barely noticeable. If injections hurt so much, how much more painful would it be to cut open your stomach and sew it back up?
"Then...then I'll still get the injection," Xu Yizhao said.
Allen's face turned deathly pale: "I...I don't want treatment anymore!" He was so frightened that he could barely speak.
“But you’re sick.” Mao Mao patted his cold little hand reassuringly. “My brother said that if you’re sick, you should see a doctor and get treated quickly so you can get better sooner. It’s okay, don’t be afraid.”
Allen shook his head vigorously, mumbling something that Mao Mao couldn't understand.
I'm so scared that I can only speak my mother tongue now.
Having no other choice, the three children had to work together to coax him.
...
They comforted Alan, who was crying from fright, and after he finished eating his snacks and playing with his toys, they also delivered gifts to other hospitalized children.
Before we knew it, it was noon. Hospital staff pushed a cart full of food by and distributed meals to the patients.
Mao Mao volunteered to get food for her friend.
Not only was the hospital room uncomfortable, but the food didn't even smell good.
Four children sat huddled together around two lunches, while the two patients scooped their food with spoons very slowly.
"I can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow," Xu Yizhao said. "After I'm discharged, I want my dad to take me to Yuexian Restaurant for a delicious meal!"
Allen, with a mournful face, said: "...￥%&@#..."
Sadness led him to speak his mother tongue again.
Mao Mao comforted him, "When you get better, you can come to my house for dinner. My chef uncle's cooking is delicious. I'm also going to throw a big party!"
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
"Knock knock"
There was also a gentle call: "Mao Mao".
Mao Mao looked back.
The young man standing at the door was tall and straight, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and looking at them with gentle eyes. He was Mao Mao's doctor brother. However, he wasn't wearing a white coat this time.
Before they knew it, the children had been chatting all morning, and it was already time for Lou Heming to get off work at noon.
Mao Mao happily climbed off the hospital bed: "Brother!"
Someone next to her greeted her: "Lou, Lou."
"hold head high?"
Mao Mao Dun suddenly slid to the ground, lay down beside the hospital bed, and looked back in confusion.
The person who greeted me was Allen, a little boy I had just met.
"Allen, do you know my brother too?"
"Mao Mao, when did you meet Allen?" Lou Heming walked over, squatted down and let Mao Mao step on his knees. He helped his sister put on her shoes, then picked her up and said, "I am Allen's attending physician."
"Brother, are you Allen's doctor?"
Mao Mao, holding her brother's shoulder, immediately turned to Allen and said, "Don't worry, my brother is really good, he'll definitely be able to cure you. Once you're better, you can come to my house to play!"
Allen nodded vigorously: "OK!"
Lou Heming smiled and said, "Welcome to our house. But before that, you have to listen to the doctor. Allen, did you forget to take your medicine today? The nurse came to complain to me."
Allen: "..."
Allen's happy face fell.
I can't understand why Mao Mao, who is as cute as an angel, has a scary doctor brother.
He was going to cut open his stomach... Oh! How horrible!
Sitting in her brother's lap, Mao Mao happily waved to her friends: "Xuanxuan, Zhaozhao, Allen, bye-bye~"
"Goodbye, Mao Mao."
Mrs. Cheng also came in looking for her daughter: "Xuanxuan, we should go home."
The group walked out, and Mao Mao and Cheng Manxuan parted ways at the entrance of the hospital building.
Lou Heming placed his sister in the back seat of the car, and after his wife also got in, he gentlemanly closed the back door.
“I’ve already made a reservation at the hotel.” He drove off, glancing at his sister in the rearview mirror. “We have half a day to spare. We’re going to the movies tomorrow, so how about we go see a play today?”
Mao Mao leaned back in the seat, happily crossing her legs: "Okay~"
“Then, I…” Lou Heming’s words suddenly stopped.
His car had just left the hospital gate and was heading towards his destination when he saw another car parked on the roadside not far away.
Through the car's windshield, their eyes met, and the people on the other side immediately rushed over aggressively.
Lou Heming tightened his grip on the steering wheel and let out a soft sigh.
"Second Brother!"
"parking!"
"The more I think about it, the more something seems off. Today is Saturday, and you clearly only work half a day."
Several of his brothers blocked the car. Lou Fengju, a cold smile playing on his lips, leaned on the roof of the car and tapped on the driver's side window with his finger: "Get out of the car. You're under arrest."
Lou Heming lowered the car window, calmly facing his brothers' anger.
"Working only half a day is considered a crime? Which law stipulates that?"
"The law doesn't specify, but our family rules state that kidnapping Mao Mao is an even more serious crime."
Taking advantage of the situation, Lou Yansui opened the back door of the car and sat down next to his sister: "Second brother, don't even think about playing with Mao Mao by yourself, we're going too."
