Chapter 1729 He Is Not a Child

Chapter 172

Bai Xiaoxiao frowned subconsciously.

Xu Wanqi's voice was choked with grievance. She took two steps forward and saw Xu Wanqi throwing herself into Meng Ke's arms.

Meng Ke stood in front of the hospital bed, holding her shoulder with one hand and carefully holding her arm with the other, "Wanqi, don't cry yet. Tell me what's going on."

Xu Wanqi's burned hand has been wrapped in gauze.

The nurse explained softly on the side, "Ms. Xu's hand was seriously burned, and blisters appeared at that time..."

Meng Ke lowered his eyes and looked at her gauze-wrapped hand, and said solemnly, "Didn't I ask you to take care of Wanqi? Why did you let her get burned?"

The nurse immediately lowered her head when asked by Meng Ke.

"Senior, don't blame her. I didn't let her feed her. You were the one feeding me the past few days. I just thought I would try it myself tonight. I can't let others feed me all the time."

Xu Wanqi's voice was low, and her face looked aggrieved and sad, which made people feel heartbroken.

"I didn't expect to be so useless. Not only did I burn my hands, but I also lost my dinner."

As she spoke, tears streamed down her face.

Meng Ke took out a tissue and wiped Xu Wanqi's tears, "Wanqi, lie down first. I'll have someone bring it to you when dinner is gone. What's important is your hands. Don't be brave next time."

Bai Xiaoxiao opened the door of the ward and walked in.

Xu Wanqi was about to lean back on the bed, but when she saw Bai Xiaoxiao coming in, a trace of hatred suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she reluctantly withdrew from Meng Ke's arms.

"Senior, you go on a date with Bai Xiaoxiao. I'm fine now."

Although she still looked aggrieved, she was well-behaved and sensible.

After saying that, he looked down at his burned hand.

"Mr. Meng, Miss Xu hasn't had dinner yet. I'm going to buy dinner for Miss Xu now. Can you stay here with Miss Xu for a while."

The quiet caregiver on the side spoke up at this time.

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at the nurse with narrowed eyes.

Meeting her gaze, the nurse immediately avoided her.

"Senior, you and Miss Bai should go. I don't have much appetite anyway and I don't want to eat tonight."

Xu Wanqi still had tears in her eyes, looking pitiful.

Meng Ke frowned and said instinctively, "How can this be done? No matter how sad you are, you have to eat, otherwise the injury will not heal."

"But, I really have no appetite."

Xu Wanqi shook her head.

"Miss Xu, tell me what you want to eat and I will buy it for you."

Xu Wanqi glanced at the nurse and then at Meng Ke, "Senior, I want to eat the dumplings you made."

"this……"

Meng Ke frowned in embarrassment. When Xu Wanqi saw this, she took the initiative to give up, "Forget it, I just said casually, seniors don't have to work for me, you can go."

Xu Wanqi said, lifting the quilt and getting out of bed.

"Wanqi, what are you going to do? Don't move."

When Meng Ke saw this, he reached out and held down her arm.

Xu Wanqi said with a wry smile, "I want to go home and make dumplings for myself. I remember that when I was injured, my senior made dumplings for me. At that time, I felt lucky..."

"Just wait, I'll make dumplings for you."

Meng Ke interrupted Xu Wanqi and did not let her continue.

When he turned his eyes and looked at Bai Xiaoxiao aside, there was a hint of apology on his face, "Xiaoxiao, tonight, I..."

"I've been on a business trip for a few days, and I just happen to go home to have dinner with my parents tonight."

After Bai Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she turned to Xu Wanqi and said, "Ms. Xu, take good care of her injuries, and don't add more injuries to her. It would be a pity if the girl left scars."

"Thank you, Miss Bai, for your concern."

The sadness in Xu Wanqi's eyes dissipated when Meng Ke said he would make dumplings for her.

At this moment, the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were filled with happiness.

After walking out of the ward, Meng Ke wanted to explain to Bai Xiaoxiao, but Bai Xiaoxiao didn't give him a chance, "My dad is feeling a little uncomfortable. I'm going to find Gu Kai to prescribe some medicine for him. You go first, I'll catch up with Gu Kai later." Drive back."

"Xiao Xiao..."

Meng Ke shouted, but Bai Xiaoxiao interrupted, "The elevator is coming."

There were many people in the elevator, and Meng Ke had no chance to speak.

Bai Xiaoxiao got out of the elevator halfway and went to Gu Kai's office.

Gu Kai was getting ready to get off work. When he saw her coming, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Xiao Xiao, why are you here?"

"You have to go home."

Bai Xiaoxiao asked instead without answering.

Gu Kai nodded, "Well, I'm getting ready to go home. What can I do?"

"It's something I have to do. I want to take a ride and stop by your house to see Yiyi and my little baby. Isn't it inconvenient?"

"How could it be? She is bored at home taking care of her children all day long. She must be very happy when you go there."

Gu Kai didn't ask Bai Xiaoxiao why he was in the hospital.

Bai Xiaoxiao didn't say anything either.

On the way to Gu Kai's house, I received a call from Li Shiyao asking why she hadn't arrived yet.

"Didn't your cousin tell you?"

Bai Xiaoxiao asked calmly.

"Tell me what, Sister Xiaoxiao, my cousin's phone number was busy, so I called your number."

Bai Xiaoxiao looked out the window. In the dusk, the street lights in the city gradually turned on.

"Xu Wanqi burned her hand and wanted to eat the dumplings made by your cousin. Your cousin didn't know where to make dumplings for her."

"Ah, Sister Xiaoxiao, why didn't you stop my cousin? He was really confused by that vixen Xu Wanqi."

"Shiyao, your cousin is not a child, he knows what he is doing."

"I'll tell my aunt and my mother later to take care of the vixen."

Li Shiyao finished speaking bitterly on the other end of the phone and hung up the phone before Bai Xiaoxiao could speak.

"..."

Bai Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and smiled self-deprecatingly.

She seemed to be complaining just now. Li Shiyao's mother and aunt were not easy-going people.

If he really goes to trouble Xu Wanqi, will it be blamed on her again?

"Xiao Xiao, Meng Ke seems to be very good to Xu Wanqi."

Gu Kai listened to what Bai Xiaoxiao said, raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, and said casually.

Bai Xiaoxiao nodded, "She is the one who saved Meng Ke twice."

"This reminds me of Cheng Jia back then."

The smile on Gu Kai's lips deepened, but the color in his eyes was dark.

Bai Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows but said nothing.

Gu Kai glanced at her and continued, "At first, Xiu Chen thought Cheng Jia was his savior. Later, Cheng Jia pushed Xiu Chen away on the construction site, saving him for the second time."

The relationship with Meng Ke and Xu Wanqi seems to be somewhat similar.

But it’s different.

"Cheng Jia is fake, Xu Wanqi should be real."

"Xiaoxiao, we don't know yet whether Xu Wanqi is real, at least not this time. We will know whether it is real when the results of Zhiyan's investigation come out."

As if thinking of something interesting, Gu Kai smiled and said, "I should have let you see the surveillance video just now."
