CHAPTER 59: CHAPTER 59: UNCLE IS SO FIERCE

The man in the black trench coat left.

Gu Ningyue turned around and held the hand of the girl in white. Her palm was already icy cold, clearly her body could feel the peril just now.

"Ji Qianqian, is it?" Gu Ningyue reached out to wipe the dust off her face. "Do you remember where your home is?"

"Sister, I want to go home." Ji Qianqian shook her head, just repeatedly saying, "Go home! Go home! Sister, let’s go home!"

Gu Ningyue felt a little helpless. This girl’s mind wasn’t sharp, yet she had such a beautiful face. If she left her here, she might be targeted by someone with ill intentions...

The only issue was taking this little ancestor back at night, how would she explain to Ling Tianyou?

After thinking for a while, Gu Ningyue sighed. Forget it, let’s just take her upstairs for now.

"It’s too late today, can sister take Qianqian home tomorrow?"

Gu Ningyue comforted Ji Qianqian, trying to calm her down.

Ji Qianqian touched her belly, looked at Gu Ningyue pitifully, and said, "Qianqian is hungry, Qianqian wants to go home to eat."

Gu Ningyue looked at her and asked, "Sister will find food for Qianqian. Will Qianqian behave tonight?"

Ji Qianqian looked at her, her big eyes blinking: "Really, sister?"

Gu Ningyue nodded, "Yes, Qianqian shouldn’t make trouble, alright?"

"Okay!"

Seeing her calm down, Gu Ningyue felt relieved.

She took her by the elevator back upstairs, first grabbing some leftover lunch from the fridge, then preparing fruit for Ji Qianqian. "Eh, why is this watermelon so small?"

After grabbing a few bananas, Gu Ningyue turned around but was somewhat shocked by the scene in front of her.

Ji Qianqian seemed very hungry, starting to wolf down the food without even using chopsticks.

She snatched the food container from her hand, put it in the microwave to heat it up, and then handed it back to Ji Qianqian: "You have to use chopsticks, understand?"

She unwrapped a set of disposable chopsticks and handed them to Ji Qianqian, whose dusty face showed a moment of confusion.

Gu Ningyue sighed, taught her hand-to-hand how to hold the chopsticks, and then sat on the bed watching her eat.

Watching Ji Qianqian like this, she seemed to remember the time when her parents had just passed away.

Although she was always hungry, she was much better off than Ji Qianqian.

At least her mind was clear, and she had the ability to earn money.

After Ji Qianqian finished eating, Gu Ningyue looked at the messy table and sighed.

Thankfully, she stopped Ling Tianyou from throwing away those dishes with only a few bites taken at noon. Otherwise, where would she get food for Ji Qianqian so late?

She washed Ji Qianqian’s face, stood behind her, and looked at the delicate and beautiful appearance in the mirror, a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes.

White face, delicate skin, cherry mouth, and a red tear mole under her left eye.

Her posture was weak, invoking sympathy, typical of a classic beauty.

Gu Ningyue reached out to touch her face, "Let’s go! It’s late at night, Qianqian should sleep now!"

This hospital room only had one bed, and with her injured hand, letting her sleep on the same bed seemed inappropriate.

But it was so late, leaving her to sleep in another room, Gu Ningyue recalled Mr. Chen’s words and felt uneasy.

Thinking it over for a long time, she looked at Ji Qianqian and asked, "Will Qianqian behave?"

Ji Qianqian seemed to really think of her as a sister and nodded her head vigorously: "Hmm. I’ll behave!"

Gu Ningyue carefully led Ji Qianqian out of the hospital room to the adjacent room and closed the door: "Then is it okay for Qianqian to stay alone here for a night?"

Ji Qianqian held her arm and began to cry: "No! I’m scared, Qianqian is scared!"

Gu Ningyue was helpless and comforted her for a long time before Ji Qianqian reluctantly agreed, considering her injury.

"Qianqian, quietly sleep for three hours. Early tomorrow morning, sister will take you home, okay?"

Ji Qianqian looked at her: "Okay!"

After teaching Ji Qianqian how to use the toilet and putting her to bed, Gu Ningyue locked the room from the outside and returned to her own room.

After all this trouble, it was already almost three o’clock.

Gu Ningyue lay in bed but couldn’t fall asleep.

Ji Qianqian was from Y City, so why was she here?

Looking at what she was wearing, she didn’t seem like a child from an ordinary family.

Most importantly, why did she call her sister upon seeing her?

Did she come with her sister, or was she deceived by some so-called ’sister’?

Gu Ningyue thought and thought until four o’clock before finally falling asleep.

That night she dreamed a strange dream, in which Ji Qianqian knelt before her, calling her mother like a child.

The two of them seemed bound by glue, never separating.

Gu Ningyue was startled and tried desperately to break free, but found no way at all.

At seven in the morning, Gu Ningyue awoke suddenly.

Glancing at the time on the wall, Gu Ningyue got up and went to Ji Qianqian’s hospital room.

As soon as she opened the door, Ji Qianqian rushed over: "Sister, I’m scared."

Gu Ningyue was surprised, "You didn’t sleep?"

Ji Qianqian shook her head, clinging to Ningyue’s waist and sobbing: "Sister, don’t abandon Qianqian, Qianqian is very good, sister don’t abandon Qianqian, boo hoo..."

Gu Ningyue opened her arms to avoid being touched by her broken arm: "Qianqian, stop crying, I’m here now, aren’t I? Sister will take you to eat first, alright?"

It seemed Ji Qianqian hadn’t slept all night, just waiting at the door for her.

Thinking about it, it must be quite difficult!

Ji Qianqian lifted her head, tearful eyes looking at her: "Sister, sister stay with Qianqian, don’t leave."

With such a beautiful face, covered with misty eyes, even Ning Yue couldn’t help but feel moved: "Alright, alright, I won’t leave, won’t leave, always stay with Qianqian."

Ji Qianqian finally grinned through her tears: "Eat food, eat food, after eating food, go home."

Gu Ningyue reached out to stroke her head: "Okay, take Qianqian home."

Just as she spoke, Gu Ningyue’s smile froze.

"Go home? Ha!" Ling Tianyou was suddenly at the door, smiling mockingly: "Gu Ningyue! Can you not take care of yourself even when hospitalized?"

Ever since she got injured, he had been worried, yet she couldn’t let him rest assured even now.

Gu Ningyue pulled Ji Qianqian behind her, "Listen to me, she’s pitiful, almost... husband, don’t be angry~!"

Ling Tianyou was slightly stunned: "You’re good at playing cute."

Only now she remembered to call him husband? Why was it so hard to hear that before?

"Sister, Qianqian is scared. Uncle is so fierce!" Ji Qianqian hid behind her, adding fuel to the fire.

Ling Tianyou’s gaze turned cold: "Uncle? Did you teach her that? Hmm?"

Gu Ningyue shook her head quickly, "No, I really didn’t. You’re brother!"

Ling Tianyou sneered, turned around, and left, never giving her another chance.
