Shen Nian lowered his eyes indifferently, his face still calm. “It’s wasn’t me.”
“Alright then.” The girl shrugged her shoulders. She was not going to pursue the matter. She walked past Shen Nian and waved at him with a smile. “Then I’ll leave first. Be careful on the way home. See you tomorrow, little genius.”
Shen Nian stood still and looked at her smiling face expressionlessly. He waited until she had left the classroom before he gripped the strap of his bag and walked out.
In the hospital, Cheng Mu was obediently eating the porridge that the nursing aide was feeding her. When she heard a noise at the door, she instantly lay back on the bed and curled up under the blanket. Then she frowned and started moaning with a pained expression. “Ouch, it hurts so much. Why does my head still hurt so much today? Am I going to recover?”
The nursing aide was dumbfounded as she watched the ten-year-old girl’s superb performance. She could not help but marvel inwardly. After a moment of shock, someone finally pushed the ward door open.
Cheng Luo walked in with a tired expression. When he saw his sister’s pained expression, his heart ached. “Mu Mu, is it still very painful? Do you want me to call the doctor in to take a look?”
When Cheng Mu saw Cheng Luo enter, a fleeting look of disappointment flashed across her face. Then, as if nothing had happened, she nudged the gauze on her forehead that had come loose and propped herself up against the headboard. She continued to allow the nursing aide to feed her the porridge. “It’s alright, Sister. You don’t have to worry about me. If you and Brother are very busy, you don’t have to visit me every day.”
“How can I let you stay here alone?” Cheng Luo sighed and patted her head dotingly. “Don’t blame your brother. His plan has been completely disrupted. He has failed to accomplish the mission he received. He’s so busy everyday, trying his best to make amends. He’s also very worried about you. He asked me to check on your injuries.”
“I know my brother is having a hard time now.” Cheng Mu smiled sensibly. She had no intention of blaming them.
Although she was young, she understood that her brother liked Aunt Shen Yin. The man who had been by Aunt Shen Yin’s side last time was too fierce. Her brother could not compete with him, and that man had even retaliated against him. He must be extremely depressed now.
On the other hand, she had Shen Nian by her side even when she was sleeping, so she was a little luckier. Of course she would not blame Cheng Huo for not having time to visit her at the hospital. Instead, she felt sorry for her brother.
Cheng Luo had always known how sensible Cheng Mu was. She was gratified and showed Cheng Mu the doll she had bought to relieve her boredom. She smiled and said, “I was afraid that you would be bored in the hospital, so I bought you a new toy. See if you like it?”
“I like it.” Cheng Mu hugged the doll tightly and could not help but laugh. “But I’ve found a better toy now.”
“What toy?” Cheng Luo asked curiously.
Cheng Mu shook her head mysteriously and said, “I can’t tell you. It’s my secret!”
She did not intend to tell anyone what she was thinking, in case others discovered how wonderful this new toy was. She was afraid that others would snatch it from her.
Cheng Luo did not ask further. She smiled and chatted with Cheng Mu a little more before leaving the ward.
The room instantly fell silent again. Cheng Mu lowered her eyes and looked at the new doll sourly. She poked its soft and chubby face and muttered, “It’s already so late. When are you coming back? Surely you’ll come and keep me company today, right?”
“Miss Cheng, who are you talking about?” After the nursing aide finished feeding her the porridge, she curiously drew nearer to look at the doll in Cheng Mu’s hand, that was worth tens of thousands of yuan.
Her daughter also liked to play with such things, but her family was not well-off enough to afford such an expensive toy. She could not help but feel envious when she saw Cheng Mu obtaining this toy so easily.
If only she could afford to buy anything she liked for her daughter. That way, her daughter would be happy every day and would not have to worry about her food and clothes being inferior to that of the children around her.
Cheng Mu turned her head and saw that her eyes fixed on the new toy. She blinked and asked, “Auntie, do you like such things?”
The nursing aide quickly shook her head in amusement. “Why would I like such things at my age? These things are only for children. I suddenly thought of my daughter, so I kept staring at it. I’m sorry to have offended you, Miss.”
“Only children like dolls?” Cheng Mu stared at the nursing aide thoughtfully until she blushed before looking away. She generously stuffed the doll in her hand . “Then give it to your daughter to play with. I don’t need this.”
“I can’t accept this. It’s too expensive.” The nursing aide quickly shook her head and refused. If anyone found out that she had taken a fancy to her employer’s possessions, she would definitely be fired.
Cheng Mu waved her hand nonchalantly. She smiled broadly. “I have many such dolls at home. Besides, I’ve already found a more beautiful doll. I’ll give this to your daughter..”
