"I won't send you to live in the temple. I promise. I just want to take you back to see them."
Shen Qianqian comforted Xiao Kong, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Only then did Xiao Kong relax and nod his head.
"Come on, put on your shoes and come down." Shen Qianqian got everything ready. She held Xiao Kong's hand and stood in the ward.
Shen Qianqian called the car she rented online. Before dialing the number, she remembered He Yijia's call.
Lin Jinya's room was next door. Shen Qianqian hoped that He Yijia wouldn't come. She and Xiao Kong were already a big target. If He Yijia came, they would be in trouble if they were discovered.
"Sir, are you arriving soon? Yes. We can leave as soon as we arrive."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief. The most important thing now was to leave safely under the eyes of the people next door.
After listening to the doctor's advice, Shen Qianqian pulled Xiao Kong down the emergency stairs.
Shen Qianqian's phone rang when they just got into the car.
It was He Yijia. Shen Qianqian looked around and saw He Yijia's car.
Shen Qianqian frowned helplessly. He Yijia's car was as eye-catching as he was. If Gu Hecheng and Lin Jinya didn't see it, they would be exposed easily.
Thinking of this, Shen Qianqian quickly answered the phone. "Yijia, are you in the hospital? I see you."
Shen Qianqian looked out of the car with the window closed. He Yijia was rolling down the window and looking around for her.
"Yijia, don't look for me. Listen to me." Shen Qianqian said, "There is a black car on your left. All the windows are closed. I'm in it."
"I've found a car to go back. After all, Lin Jinya is still in the hospital. I don't want Xiao Kong to be exposed because of us. If you really want to see Xiao Kong, you can go to my place directly."
Xiao Kong suddenly patted the car window excitedly. Following Xiao Kong's gaze, Shen Qianqian was so scared that she almost stopped breathing.
Seeing that Gu Hecheng was about to appear beside He Yijia's car, Shen Qianqian hurriedly changed the subject. "Yijia, listen to me.. when you see Gu Hecheng later, don't tell him that you're looking for me!"
"I …" Before He Yijia could ask why, Shen Qianqian had already hung up the phone.
When He Yijia looked up, he finally understood why Shen Qianqian was acting like this.
Gu Hecheng came to the hospital to see Lin Jinya. When he walked along the road in front of the hospital, he casually glanced around and saw a familiar car.
Gu Hecheng slowed down and walked forward with confusion. Sure enough, it was He Yijia's car.
They looked at each other and sparks flew.
"What are you doing here?"
As Shen Qianqian expected, He Yijia said coldly, "I heard from Lin Jinya that she was hospitalized and that Qianqian did it. I didn't believe it, so I came to see her."
"Aren't you going to go up?" Gu Hecheng looked at He Yijia with his fox-like eyes.
He Yijia was about to start the car. "It's okay. Seeing that you brought the things here, Lin Jinya should be in the hospital. If that's the case, there's no need for me to go up and see for myself. Anyway, I don't believe that Qianqian did it."
He Yijia's unconditional trust and support for Shen Qianqian made Gu Hecheng feel uncomfortable. His eyes darkened.
"Uncle! Uncle Long Legs! "
While Shen Qianqian hung up the phone and talked to the driver, Xiao Kong quickly rolled down the car window and waved at Gu Hecheng.
By the time Shen Qianqian reacted, it was too late. It was too late to remedy the situation. She could only instinctively bend down and hide. Then, she asked the driver to drive away quickly.
Fortunately, Gu Hecheng was some distance away from their car. Since he was not in the mood, he just waved at Xiao Kong casually.
After the car left the hospital, Shen Qianqian let go of Xiao Kong's hand and sat up straight.
"Xiao Kong, close the window." Shen Qianqian, who had just recovered from the shock, put her hand on her chest. She was angry because of fear. Shen Qianqian said to Xiao Kong impatiently, "How can you say hello to a stranger without my permission?"
"Mom, it's not a stranger. He was the uncle who sent me to the doctor's desk the day I got lost." Xiao Kong had never seen Shen Qianqian so angry with him. His big eyes were full of grievance and fear.
"What? He sent you there that day? Then what else did you say to him? " Shen Qianqian's forehead was sweating. Xiao Kong was also affected by the fear in her eyes. He said in a trembling voice, "No, nothing."
Xiao Kong held Shen Qianqian's hand nervously. He looked like he was afraid that he would annoy her and throw him away.
"Forget it." Seeing Xiao Kong so scared, Shen Qianqian realized that she might have overreacted. She pulled Xiao Kong into her arms and said, "It's okay. When you see this uncle in the future, don't say hello to him. Don't appear in front of him, okay?"
"Okay." Xiao Kong blinked his big eyes and agreed. But he could not help asking curiously, "Why, mom?"
"Because he's a bad guy!"
"Bad guy?" Xiao Kong did not understand.
When Shen Qianqian saw this, she could only use her ability to make up stories. "That's right. He treats children well, but it's all an act. When you get close to him, he will kidnap you and use you to threaten Mommy. You see, he's always wandering around the hospital. Mommy knows, so next time, stay away from him. Mommy was almost scared to death."
Xiao Kong stared at Shen Qianqian with wide, shocked eyes as she narrated the frightening story vividly. In the end, Xiao Kong nodded cooperatively at Shen Qianqian, seeming to understand what she was saying.
"Oh, mom, I know. I'll stay away from that uncle in the future."
Xiao Kong promised her solemnly. Seeing that Xiao Kong was successfully frightened, Shen Qianqian finally breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction.
The chauffeur followed Shen Qianqian's directions and finally arrived at the apartment building she was renting.
"Come, Xiao Kong, come down." Shen Qianqian pulled Xiao Kong. When she was about to take out the key to open the door, He Yijia called.
Shen Qianqian quickly opened the door and went in with Xiao Kong. Then she picked up the phone.
"Yijia, we're back." Shen Qianqian pulled Xiao Kong to the sofa and sat down. Then she sat beside him.
"You went this way? Okay, come over. I'm going to cook for Xiao Kong. Come and eat with me. I've troubled you a lot these days."
Hearing that He Yijia would be here in about ten minutes, Shen Qianqian decided to wait for He Yijia to come and then they would go to the supermarket to buy ingredients together.
The fridge was empty at the moment. Shen Qianqian could only take some water and snacks for Xiao Kong to fill his stomach.
"Xiao Kong, an uncle is coming over later. Xiao Kong, remember to greet Uncle Ho, okay?" Shen Qianqian touched Xiao Kong's head and reminded him.
"Is he mom's good friend? Just like me and my senior from Jing Yuan." Xiao Kong asked with his big innocent eyes while eating snacks.
Xiao Kong's question stunned Shen Qianqian. Although she and He Yijia were not good friends of the same gender like Xiao Kong and Jing Yuan, at least in her heart, they were pure good friends. So Xiao Kong's analogy was not wrong.
Shen Qianqian looked at Xiao Kong with sparkling eyes. Just as she was about to say something, the doorbell rang.
It should be He Yijia. Shen Qianqian went to the door and looked through the peephole. When she was sure that it was He Yijia, she opened the door.
"Come in quickly." Shen Qianqian smiled faintly. Seeing He Yijia change into slippers, she said, "Xiao Kong is inside."
Hearing the name Xiao Kong, He Yijia was still stunned. He was not completely used to it.
He Yijia followed Shen Qianqian from the entrance to the living room.
"Hello, Uncle Ho," Xiao Kong greeted He Yijia according to what Shen Qianqian had taught him.
He Yijia squatted down in front of Xiao Kong with a smile. After responding to Xiao Kong, he looked at his eyes carefully and was a little absent-minded.
Although Xiao Kong seemed to be very proactive and enthusiastic, his body language showed that he was against it.
Although He Yijia was holding Xiao Kong's arm, his body was leaning back. Not only that, he looked at He Yijia's slightly cold eyes with a trace of alienation and uneasiness.
He Yijia realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly adjusted his expression and said with a smile, "Xiao Kong, you look so much like Mom. You're so obedient."
He Yijia looked at him and had to admit that although Xiao Kong's eyebrows looked like Shen Qianqian's and his facial contours looked like Gu Hecheng's, his stubborn eyes were more like Gu Hecheng's. There seemed to be a lot of hidden potential in his eyes, which was very similar to Gu Hecheng's.
He Yijia and Xiao Kong were talking. Shen Qianqian prepared a list of things to buy when they went out. "Yijia, we don't have any groceries at home. We were thinking of going to the supermarket together when you came. Do you want to go together?"
"Of course." He Yijia was very willing to serve her, so he took them downstairs together.
On the way, in order to become closer to Xiao Kong, He Yijia offered to carry Xiao Kong, but he was rejected.
Xiao Kong hid behind Shen Qianqian and pulled Shen Qianqian's clothes stubbornly. "Mom, carry me."
Looking at his pitiful look, Shen Qianqian thought that Xiao Kong had just come down from the mountain. Seeing that there were so many people who were afraid of strangers, she did not force him. He Yijia smiled awkwardly and carried Xiao Kong.
On the way, Xiao Kong sat obediently beside Shen Qianqian and did not speak.
