Chapter 370: A Well-Intentioned Misunderstanding

Shi Youxuan accompanied her daughter, almost forcing a smile.

Sheng Hanyu's expression was no better than hers.

Both of them had misunderstood.

Shi Youxuan thought that Sheng Hanyu, like her, was worried because there was something growing in their daughter's brain.

Sheng Hanyu thought that Shi Youxuan was feeling sad because she was reminded of the past and bad memories were stirred up, and he felt sad because of his guilt; seeing the expression on the woman he loved made him feel even more guilty.

The two of them went further and further down the path of misunderstanding.

Yet, they strangely achieved a kind of harmony.

The family of three gathered together to watch cartoons; Shi Ran watched with great interest, Shi Youxuan only looked at her daughter, and Sheng Hanyu stared at the mother and daughter!

She noticed, but instead of pretending to be fierce and warning, "What are you looking at? Turn away, or I'll dig your eyeballs out," she pretended not to know, and even took the peeled apple Sheng Hanyu handed over and ate it.

After one episode of the cartoon finished, Shi Ran took the initiative to ask to turn off the TV.

After turning off the TV, the family of three chatted.

She held her mother's hand with her left hand and her father's hand with her right, placed the two hands together, and then placed both of her own small hands on top, smiling very brightly.

The smartest thing about the little girl was that she didn't say anything, but used actions to express herself directly!

Sheng Hanyu subconsciously pulled his hand back: "Ranran, don't mess around, Mom will be angry."

He looked at Shi Youxuan nervously, thinking she would definitely be angry, but strangely, she wasn't.

Not only was she not angry, she even took his hand and placed it back—the father and daughter both widened their eyes, unable to believe it was real!

Shi Ran even touched her forehead with her small hand: "Mom, are you not feeling well?"

"No, isn't this what you've always wanted? To make you happy."

"Mm-hmm."

The little girl was indeed very happy, chatting non-stop while pulling the two of them, talking about today's bouquet, and asking if they were also going to hold a grand wedding?

She also wanted to be a flower girl, a flower girl for her own mom and dad.

She even proudly said she wanted to invite all the kids from preschool to attend the wedding.

When their mom and dad got married, they didn't make it, but she made it... Shi Ran didn't feel at all that being different from other kids was something shameful.

Instead, she felt quite proud.

This kind of self-confidence came from the care Shi Youxuan had given her since she was small, which was the only way to cultivate a child to be sunny and confident.

Everything Shi Ran said, she had also said during the day at the wedding.

But Shi Youxuan had scolded her for talking nonsense and wouldn't let her continue.

However, now she didn't.

Now, no matter what Shi Ran said, she nodded and agreed!

The little girl was naturally overjoyed, but Sheng Hanyu felt something was wrong.

He believed that Shi Youxuan must have been stimulated, otherwise she wouldn't have changed so quickly.

As the family of three reunited in the Hospital Ward, Jian Yining called to invite her to take the child out for a gathering, as he was returning to the United States tomorrow.

After going back this time, he didn't know when they would meet again.

Shi Youxuan refused, making excuses that she had things to do and really couldn't get away!

Jian Yining was dissatisfied: "What could you possibly have to do?" Before he got an answer, the voices of Sheng Hanyu and Shi Ran suddenly came through the phone.

Sheng Hanyu asked Shi Ran if she was hungry.

What did she want to eat for dinner?

Shi Ran wanted to eat pizza and iced cola, so Sheng Hanyu ordered takeout.

Shi Youxuan thought he was definitely doing it on purpose, deliberately ordering takeout when Jian Yining called.

It wasn't the first or second time he had done this; it was like this every time.

There was no sound on the other end, and after a few seconds of silence, he suddenly raised his voice: "Xuanxuan, you haven't reconciled with Sheng Hanyu, have you?"

He knew about the commotion everyone made at the wedding, he just didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Shi Youxuan wanted to deny it, but meeting her daughter's expectant gaze, she didn't make a sound, so he became even more certain.

"It's fine, if you're busy, then we won't meet."

After saying that, without waiting for Shi Youxuan to speak, he hung up the phone.

Less than ten minutes after hanging up, Yun Zhehao, including the newlyweds who should be on their wedding night now, all knew the news that Shi Youxuan was preparing to get back together with Sheng Hanyu!

Several people took turns calling with "congratulatory messages."

Sheng Hanyu still felt a bit dazed, but he accepted the congratulations as they came, and when he answered the calls, he did it entirely in front of Shi Youxuan, and she neither argued nor objected.

Did not objecting count as tacit consent?

A huge sense of happiness enveloped Sheng Hanyu; he smiled until his eyes disappeared, the happiness coming too suddenly, although he always felt something was wrong somewhere.

The pizza set arrived, and the family of three had a "reunion meal" in the Hospital Ward.

Sheng Hanyu suggested that the three of them take a photo together, and Shi Youxuan agreed.

Shi Ran was in the middle, with the two of them on either side; the father and daughter smiled equally sweetly, only Shi Youxuan's smile was a bit forced!

After the meal, the little girl fell asleep quickly after washing up.

Shi Youxuan beckoned to Sheng Hanyu, signaling him to go outside to talk.

The two of them arrived in the corridor, and the tears she had held back all afternoon could finally no longer be contained, falling down in a rush.

He hurriedly took a tissue to wipe her tears.

Sheng Hanyu didn't know why she was crying, but he thought it must have something to do with the person she went to see in the afternoon!

She did not go to the sanatorium; Sheng Hanyu is the owner of the sanatorium, so whether she went or not could not be hidden from his eyes and ears at all.

He wanted to ask, but it was not easy to ask.

No matter who she went to see, it had been difficult for Xuanxuan to finally change, and he did not want to annoy her by being talkative, especially since she was still very sad right now.

He also did not ask why she was sad.

Sheng Hanyu felt that if Xuanxuan wanted to say it, she would tell him, and if she did not want to say it, asking would be useless!

This line of thinking was correct most of the time, but it was not correct this one time.

Neither of them spoke; Shi Youxuan had originally called Sheng Hanyu out to talk about Shi Ran's condition, but she really could not bring herself to say it.

Just thinking about this matter in her mind made her incredibly sad.

Let alone saying it out loud.

Shi Youxuan cried for a good while before finally stopping; crying was useless, and no matter what kind of difficulties there were, one had to face them in order to solve them.

She said, "When Ranran is discharged, you should move upstairs to live; it will be more convenient to take care of the child."

Sheng Hanyu:...

Shi Youxuan: "What, are you unwilling? If you are unwilling, then forget it; pretend I didn't say anything."

"Willing, willing, I am willing." He nodded hurriedly to show that he was willing.

Shi Youxuan wanted to ask when the surgery would be performed, but what came out was: "When can Ranran be discharged?"

Sheng Hanyu: "At least after a week; this concerns the child's future physical health, so we cannot rush the discharge."

She felt that a week was also a bit too rushed, so she said: "Is one week okay? Will it be too hasty? Don't let there be any sequelae, after all..." She could not continue, and she wanted to cry again.

Sheng Hanyu felt her reaction was a bit excessive, but he could also understand Shi Youxuan's deep love for her daughter, so he said: "How about I talk to the doctor and let Ranran stay in the hospital for a few more days, and we will go back only after confirming there are no problems with her body at all?"

"Mm." Shi Youxuan agreed.

The two of them tiptoed back from the hallway, and Sheng Hanyu lay down on the sofa in the inner room with his clothes on to keep watch over Ranran for the night.

Shi Youxuan slept in the outer room; she had not slept all night yesterday, but today she still had no sleepiness at all, her mind full of that line of text on the test report, feeling very worried.
