Qin Bai narrowed his eyes as he watched the woman's retreating figure.
"Old Fei, how long has this been going on?"
"Ever since you said last time that we shouldn't clean."
"Hehe, she's quite obedient."
Boiling Sheep looked miserable: "He is quite obedient, but it's really tough on me."
"Tell me more about it."
Boiling Sheep has finally found the victim.
"I don't know where she bought a book on handicrafts, but the items in it are quite complicated."
“I thought this was a good thing, at least she could rest and recuperate. I even had my men send her a lot of tools and materials.”
"Then it just got out of control. At first, she only gave them to doctors and nurses in the hospital."
"It's pretty good. Those people are quite happy, after all, those handmade products look very high-end."
"A few days later, I don't know what some godfather said, she suddenly realized what was going on, and she took her things and went out to set up a stall."
"I had my men persuade her to go back. We don't need her money at all. But she just said she'd found a new way to get rich."
"I thought to myself, 'Let's just sell it. Consider it a good workout. It's nice to get some exercise and go for a walk.'"
“I had my men follow her around every day, and they bought back all the unsold items.”
"And then guess what?"
Qin Bai tilted his head and looked at him. "Am I telling you a comedy routine? Why do I need a straight man?"
"What's wrong?"
Boiling Sheep slapped his thigh: "She turned around and gave the money to my hospital, without keeping a single penny for herself."
"Hehe, that's interesting. This is a closed loop. Didn't she realize it?"
"Sigh, it was discovered later, and they refused to sell to my men no matter what."
Qin Bai quickened his pace, and the figure in front of him turned a corner.
"And then?"
"Then she would secretly run away from the hospital every day and find a place a little further away to start a stall. As a result, this is what you see now. She has come all the way here."
Qin Bai patted him on the shoulder.
"Thank you for your help during this time."
Boiling Sheep waved his hand and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you being so polite with me?"
Qin Bai smiled but didn't say anything.
At this moment, Ling Xiangxue stopped and looked back carefully. When she saw that the girl was not there, she put the basket down with peace of mind.
He muttered under his breath, "Am I that easy to fool? It's clearly a trick, yet they tried to fool me 1, 2, 3... 6 times!"
She pursed her lips and reluctantly clenched her fingers: "It does seem like a lot. If he were here, he would definitely say I'm incredibly stupid again."
Thinking of that figure, a smile unconsciously appeared on Ling Xiangxue's lips.
I'm looking forward to hearing his voice, but he seems to be very busy these past few days and hasn't called me at all.
I really hope I can go back to China soon so I can see him downstairs every day.
That doesn't seem right either; he's currently in Kyoto.
Why.
Ling Xiangxue's lips curved downwards, looking somewhat aggrieved.
I don't know when this lousy illness of mine will get better. I'm perfectly healthy, I can run and jump, so why won't it let me walk?
At that moment, her phone vibrated a few times.
Wen Si?
Ling Xiangxue tidied her hair, hiding her worries in the process.
Only after confirming that she was still the same gentle person did she press the answer button.
"elder sister."
Her sweet voice made her eyes squint with laughter.
"Hmm, Wensi, were you naughty today?"
"Of course not, my brother can vouch for that."
Xu Mingyuan appeared on camera: "Sis, Wensi participated in the school's recitation competition today, and she even won first prize! Isn't that amazing?"
"Wow, Wensi is the best."
The exaggerated tone made Wensi laugh non-stop.
Xu Mingyuan asked, "Sister, are you outside?"
"Yes, that's right." Ling Xiangxue subconsciously adjusted the camera on her phone, making sure the basket at her feet wasn't visible.
Are you alright?
"I'm much better now. The doctor said I can walk around outside freely."
"Really? Then you'll be back soon, right?" Xu Mingyuan's voice was filled with surprise.
"I think so. I'll ask the doctor again tomorrow. I hope I can go back home by the Chinese New Year."
At that moment, Cheng Jing's voice came from the phone.
Is your sister coming back?
The sound grew louder as it approached. Cheng Jing, wearing an apron, wiped the water off her hands.
Hello, Aunt Cheng.
"Hehe, okay, have you decided when you'll be back?"
"Not yet, but I'm perfectly healthy now."
Cheng Jing sat on the sofa, picked up Wen Si and put her on her lap, while Xu Mingyuan sat beside her. The three of them appeared in the camera at the same time.
Looking at the two children's affectionate expressions, Ling Xiangxue knew how good Cheng Jing was to them.
Sensitive people often hide their true feelings, but at this moment, I didn't see that emotion on their faces.
"Xiangxue, you should listen to the doctor and stay there for a while longer. Come back when you've recovered. Don't worry about Wensi and Mingyuan; they're very obedient."
Ling Xiangxue said apologetically, "I've already troubled you so much, I don't know how to thank you enough."
"Hehe, we're all family, no need to thank me."
Cheng Jing's eyes were full of smiles. Ever since her prospective daughters-in-law went to Kyoto one after another, she felt that the entire Jinshan City was quiet.
Thankfully, I have these two little ones at home to keep me company, otherwise I'll be so bored.
After learning about Ling Xiangxue's situation, she tested Qin Bai's attitude, only to receive a calm denial.
