Yu Bing was a little confused when she saw Xiao Sheng suddenly run away. Then, she thought of their actions just now and returned to her room with a blush. ...
The next morning, when the two of them first saw each other, they felt that the atmosphere was a little different from before. It was as if the barrier between the two of them had suddenly disappeared.
The two of them ate millet porridge, eggs, and sweet potatoes in the morning.
After eating, they set off for the hospital together. For the next few days, everything went according to plan. Everyone’s learning ground was also transferred from their home to the ward.
Xiao Lin had changed a lot. In the past, whenever he saw books, he would complain. Now, he suddenly seemed to have grown up and realized the importance of learning. He took the initiative to learn things every day and even ask for practice questions from Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng.
The four of them felt as if they had returned to the He Mountain Village. Other than Miss Zhao finding excuses to come to the ward from time to time, everything was peaceful.
Ever since Xiao Sheng clarified the misunderstanding he had accidentally caused that day, Xiao Sheng would take the initiative to avoid Miss Zhao in the hospital. When he couldn’t avoid it, he would only say one word to her.
However, Xiao Shengs cold attitude didn’t make Miss Zhao retreat. Instead, she became even more encouraged.
On the fifth day of the new year, Xiao Sheng told Yu Bing that he wanted to visit Zeng Li.
When Xiao Sheng thought of how Zeng Li had helped him when he brought Xiao Li here, he felt a little embarrassed. “It’s all thanks to Zeng Li that Xiao Li was treated. Until now, I’ve only treated him to a meal.”
Zeng Li had indeed helped a lot, so Yu Bing nodded and said, “New years is the time to visit relatives and friends, so we should visit him. I’ll go too. We all know each other, so it’s not good for me to stay behind.”
When Xiao Sheng thought of Zeng Li l s family background, he felt that it might not be convenient to visit directly. After the two of them discussed it for a while, they decided to invite Zeng Li out for a meal.
After the two of them agreed, Xiao Sheng called the Zeng family. The person who answered the call happened to be Zeng Li.
Zeng Li was feeling bored at home, so when she heard the invitation, she immediately agreed. Both parties agreed to meet at five o’clock.
After Zeng Li hung up the phone, he said to Lin Xue, “I won’t be home for dinner tonight.”
“You brat, it wasn’t easy for me to get you home. Where are you going now?
Zeng Rou’s in-laws had a bunch of relatives from her hometown, so she was busy entertaining them until yesterday. After they returned, she took the time to bring her son back to her parents’ house. As soon as she entered, she heard that her brother was going out to eat during the new year.
Zeng Li smiled and said, “A friend came from afar. He wants to thank me by treating me to a meal.”
“Uncle!” Two boys rushed out from behind Zeng Rou and pounced on Zeng Li.
Zeng Li collapsed on the sofa in an exaggerated manner. “Oh my, my two fat nephews are going to crush me!”
Zeng Rou’s two children were 7 and 11 years old. Each of them was more slender than the other. Their nicknames were Big Fatty and Little Fatty. They were at the age when they were unruly troublemakers. However, Zeng Li was once the king of the children in the neighborhood and he subdued them in a few moves, so the two of them admired Zeng Li very much.
Seeing that her sister-in-law only brought the children back, Lin Xue asked with concern, “Why didn’t their father come back?”
After Zeng Rou placed the box of ginseng she had brought back on the table, she sat on the sofa. “He received an assignment at the last minute this morning, so I had to come back myself.”
When Zeng Wei saw Zeng Rou return home, he took the opportunity to persuade Zeng Li, “It’s rare for your second sister to come back for the new year and our family to have a meal together, so why don’t you and your friend meet another day?”
Zeng Li didn’t expect his second sister to return either, so he said awkwardly,
“I’ve already promised them.”
In fact, the main reason was that he also wanted to play with Xiao Sheng. After all, even when his family didn’t celebrate the holidays together, his family ate together occasionally. They were all in the same place, so it wasn’t difficult for them to meet. Moreover, he had already been detained at home for a blind date from the start of the new year to yesterday. It wasn’t easy for them to give him a break today, but his brother had found an excuse to let him accompany him until now.
Zeng Rou said aloofly, “You and your friends see each other all day long. Accompany me for a meal.”
When Zeng Li heard this, he immediately retorted, “We’re not just ordinary friends. Xiao Sheng and I have been through life and death together!”
Zeng Rou paused when she heard this name. “Is he the friend whose sister is going to have a cornea transplant?”
Zeng Li nodded vigorously. “It’s him!”
Zeng Rou had met Xiao Sheng and his siblings before. On the first day they came to S City, Xiao Sheng brought Xiao Li to the hospital for a checkup. At that time, she happened to be patrolling the hospital with other doctors and saw Zeng Li bringing them to the ophthalmology department, so they greeted each other..
