Once out of the ward, the doctor cautioned the young nurse to pay more attention to the condition of the ward to prevent any more fighting or scolding from occurring here.
Wan Dongcheng felt very anxious, and Li Shiping was silent. He didn’t know what she was thinking and feared she might be considering divorce. He then became the good man again, playing with his daughter for a while, then touching her forehead, and even went out to buy food for them. But no matter what he did, Li Shiping didn’t say a word.
Only she knew that her heart had already died.
Li Shiping finally realized that the Wan Dongcheng she deeply loved would never return. The person standing before her now was a devil, no longer the man she once loved.
Shen Mianmian arrived at the shop just as Xiaocui and the others were preparing to leave, and Lu Siyuan, who couldn’t wait for Shen Mianmian, had also returned to school. He kept complaining about Shen Mianmian’s late return as he left.
Having slept only a few hours the night before, Shen Mianmian was quite tired. After returning to her place, she quickly made some noodles with Xiaocui and went to bed after a bath.
When He Nan came back, he knocked on the door, and Xiaocui answered, "Brother He, Mianmian is already asleep."
He Nan just wanted to check if she had come back. Hearing that she was asleep, he nodded and turned around to use his key to open his door.
Xiaocui closed the door quietly, careful not to wake Shen Mianmian.
Seeing Li Shiping holding her child at the door in a panic yesterday had startled her too. Mianmian had returned after a night out, obviously having stayed overnight at the hospital, and now she had dark circles under her eyes. She surely hadn’t slept well.
The next day, when Shen Mianmian got up, Xiaocui had already gone to work. After getting ready, she left with her backpack. He Nan’s door was open, so Shen Mianmian walked straight in only to see He Nan carrying two bowls of porridge from the kitchen.
"Sit down and eat something before you go to school."
Shen Mianmian didn’t hesitate, put down her backpack, and sat at the dining table. Smelling the fragrance of the lean meat porridge, her stomach growled a few times. She looked embarrassedly at He Nan, who seemed not to hear and calmly continued eating his porridge, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
The porridge was just the right temperature and she quickly finished her bowl. Although He Nan seemed not to be watching her, it was as if he had eyes on top of his head, "There’s more in the pot."
Shen Mianmian nodded, ran to the kitchen to get another bowl of porridge, and after finishing it, she let out a satisfied burp, not forgetting to flatter him.
"Brother He, your cooking skills are quite impressive. Your future wife will be lucky. You could fatten a ninety-pound woman up to one hundred and eighty. With these skills, even pig farming could make you rich," she said.
He Nan chuckled, "Are you sure that is a compliment?"
Shen Mianmian bit her tongue, realizing she had been too quick to speak without considering her words.
Seeing that He Nan had also finished two bowls of porridge, she quickly washed the dishes and left for school with him, carrying her backpack. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽
Concerned about gossip, He Nan parked his car near the school and accompanied her on foot, "Don’t worry about anything that happens later, just find an opportunity to get into school."
"Sure," Shen Mianmian nodded obediently. "Brother He, after I go in, just walk away. My parents are bullies and cowards."
No sooner had she spoken than she saw Zhou Lanfang and Shen Jianhua standing at the school gate, watching every student who entered.
Haven’t seen them for a few months and seeing them again now brought back memories of being locked in a room that day. She pursed her lips and strode forward.
"You little wretch, I’ve finally caught you," Zhou Lanfang said upon catching sight of Shen Mianmian, quickly charging toward her. She reached out to grab Shen Mianmian but was blocked by He Nan. Only then did she notice He Nan had accompanied Shen Mianmian, her face drew tight as she questioned, "He Nan, what is the meaning of this?"
