The car swayed and bumped along the dirt road. At first, Xiao Bao curiously looked around with his big, round eyes.
A few minutes later, she fell asleep in Chen Ji's arms.
Xu Ruantang asked Aunt Wang to sit in the passenger seat. These days, most people don't ride in cars much, and it's easy to get carsick if you don't sit in the passenger seat.
The little baby was asleep with his mouth slightly open, and his little face was rosy.
Xu Ruantang reached out and manually closed her mouth, while casually stroking her face.
Chen Ji turned to look at her and slowly said, "Are you dizzy?"
"Hmm?" Xu Ruantang reacted for a moment, "I'm not dizzy."
The car was quite bumpy, but she could tolerate it; it was just that the seats were too hard and made her butt hurt.
The original owner was too thin; there wasn't even a pound of flesh on her buttocks to cushion it.
In her original world, no matter how thin she was, her little butt was still very perky, and her roommates often took advantage of her because of it.
Xu Ruantang used to hate her big butt and always thought that she looked bad in tight pants.
I'm strangely nostalgic now; at least the ride wasn't uncomfortable!
As she pondered, her thoughts wandered, and Xu Ruantang secretly glanced at the man beside her. Even through his pants, she could tell at a glance that Chen Ji definitely had a nice, round butt!
This would be incredibly explosive even in the world of anime!
Xu Ruantang, who had seen countless anime characters, almost burst out laughing. Don't ask why, just because the contrast between his shapely buttocks and Chen Ji's overall demeanor was too stark, and it was simply funny.
Who would have thought that the icy guy had a big butt!
Aunt Wang was extremely anxious sitting in the car, constantly looking out, so the police officers drove a little faster.
When they arrived at the hospital, they rushed in and found that Wang Jian was still undergoing emergency treatment.
After waiting outside the emergency room for more than an hour, Wang Jian was finally wheeled out.
Aunt Wang grabbed Wang Jian's hand and burst into tears. The doctors and nurses quickly pulled her away, saying, "The patient's condition is still unstable. Who is a family member? Come with me."
After leaving the doctor's office, they went to the ward. Aunt Wang's emotions stabilized when she arrived at the ward. She thanked Chen Ji and Xu Ruantang profusely and insisted that they go back, saying that she could manage on her own.
After leaving the hospital, Chen Ji asked Xu Ruantang, "What did the doctor say?"
"They said it's still a dangerous period and we need to observe it for a few more days."
The doctor phrased it rather tactfully, but Xu Ruantang understood: Chen Ji had been sent to the Capital Hospital if he hadn't woken up last time, but his life wasn't in danger.
As for Wang Jian, if he doesn't wake up now, he'll never wake up again.
Now that things have come to this, they, as bystanders, have done all they can; now it's up to fate.
Xu Ruantang thought about the plot of the original book, which didn't mention Wang Jian getting into trouble at all. In the original book, it was the original owner of the body who got into trouble.
Now everything has changed.
Xu Ruantang glanced at Chen Ji silently, a sense of helplessness and fear about the unknown welling up deep in her heart.
It was as if an invisible hand was guiding her, making her feel that everything was preordained.
If an NPC is just an NPC, then no matter how much she struggles, can she escape her predetermined fate?
"What's wrong?" Chen Ji seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He paused and turned around, his deep black eyes staring unfathomably at Xu Ruantang.
Xu Ruantang forced a smile and immediately shook her head, saying, "It's nothing, I'm just a little worried about Aunt Wang. Let's go back."
Chen Ji's gaze remained fixed on her face for a moment before he spoke, "Since we're already here, let's go for a walk."
Xu Ruantang asked, puzzled, "Huh?"
Her starry eyes shifted slightly, her doe-like eyes shimmering with light, clear and pure in the sunlight, as if nothing in the world could shake her original aspirations.
“Once I get back to the unit, I won’t have time to spend with Xiaobao anymore,” Chen Ji explained patiently, shifting his gaze away and speaking in a gentle voice: “Go buy some clothes, and see if you need anything, and buy it all at the same time.”
Xu Ruantang looked at Xiaobao. As soon as they got out of the car, Xiaobao woke up. He was being held by Chen Ji and looked at the unfamiliar city with curiosity. He was not crying or making a fuss and had a well-behaved face.
There are indeed many things to buy. Xiao Bao used to be thin, but now he's grown taller and heavier, and he can hardly fit into his old clothes anymore.
Moreover, I only had a few pieces before, and I kept changing them.
The two adults and one child arrived at the department store and immediately attracted the attention of passersby. People would look over from time to time and then whisper among themselves.
The couple was handsome and beautiful, and their child was adorable. The man seemed like a good husband and father, as he held the child the whole time. Some people were envious, while others sighed with envy.
Why do all the good looks seem to be on other people?
Why are all the good men someone else's?
The department store was really crowded. Last time she bought a baby bottle, she was in a hurry and the counter was right at the entrance, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
As Xu Ruantang walked along, she discovered that they sold everything from bicycles and sewing machines to needles and buttons.
She was walking quickly when she passed the skincare counter and felt someone grab her arm.
She turned around, her eyes full of confusion, and asked, "What's wrong? We haven't even reached the clothing section yet."
Chen Ji immediately released his grip on her arm, a hint of a smile in his eyes, but his face remained cold as he said, "These are also needed."
Xu Ruantang followed his gaze and saw that it was the toiletries and cosmetics section. She nodded and asked, "What do you want? I'll go buy it?"
Shouldn't a man be able to get by with just a bar of soap? Chen Ji lives such a meticulous life.
On her first day at Chen Ji’s house, she discovered that even though only one big man lived there, the house had everything from soap and bar soap to shampoo and even shower gel!
He had countless towels and regularly replaced his toothbrush; he didn't look like a rough-and-tumble man from a military background at all.
At the time, she thought those things were bought by Yao Yulan, but after a while she found out that they weren't; Chen Ji used the same brands all the time.
Chen Ji's eyes were deep and his voice was magnetic and deep: "I'll go buy it."
Taking advantage of his height, he quickly bypassed the crowd and walked to the counter to say something to the sales clerk.
The salesperson quickly filled a large bag with his belongings.
Xu Ruantang was surprised to see that he even bought face cream.
That makes it difficult to evaluate.
"I'll take it." Xu Ruantang's lips twitched, but she still walked over to take the things.
He was carrying the baby and other things, making it seem like she was bullying him.
Chen Ji, holding Xiao Bao in one arm, took the things from her hands, saying, "No need, I can do it, it's quite heavy."
Xu Ruantang: "......"
Is he mocking her?
Skincare products weren't necessities these days, and the counters weren't as crowded as candy or shoe counters. Seeing the two of them like this, the saleswoman said to Xu Ruantang with envy, "Comrade, your husband is so good to you!"
Xu Ruantang smiled awkwardly, "Yes, it's very good."
What she was really thinking was, if the sales clerk knew that Chen Ji had bought these for her, wouldn't she be shocked?
