Nan Xiao frowned slightly, "No wonder Zhao Zhao said that making Mother sad once was enough."
Lan Xiao Liu sighed, "I don't know what good deeds you did in your past life to give birth to such good children as Zhao Zhao and Mu Mu. I'm telling you, don't underestimate your son. At critical moments, he's calmer than any adult. He could give Xi'er acupuncture when he was just a little over two years old."
"There was such a thing?"
"Didn't Xi'er tell you? Once, she was being chased with the two children. Xi'er went berserk protecting them. Just as her second personality was about to emerge in her rage, as soon as they reached a safe place, Zhao Zhao gave Xi'er an acupuncture treatment. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Nan Xiao tenderly stroked Lan Yu Xi's cheek, "Xi Bao was afraid I'd feel guilty, so she rarely told me about the four years she was gone. Even when she did, she downplayed things, avoiding the important and dwelling on the trivial."
"My silly sister!" Lan Xiao Liu gently squeezed Lan Yu Xi's shoulder, "Don't worry, Sixth Brother will definitely find you a better treatment plan."
Thirty minutes later, Lan Xiao Liu personally removed the golden needles from Lan Yu Xi.
Nan Xiao watched intently, memorizing every step.
After Lan Xiao Liu removed the golden needles, he gently patted Lan Yu Xi's cheek, "Xi'er, wake up!"
Lan Yu Xi slowly opened her eyes, her brows furrowed. The first thing she saw was Nan Xiao's pair of worried eyes.
Lan Yu Xi raised her hand and touched his incredibly handsome face, "I'm fine, don't worry."
Nan Xiao remained silent, simply holding her tightly in his embrace.
Lan Xiao Liu glanced at him, "Be gentler! Xi'er can barely breathe with you hugging her like that."
Nan Xiao quickly softened his grip, "Xi Bao, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Lan Yu Xi hooked his neck and sat up, "Why am I in Dad's car?"
"Our car has a child seat, which is inconvenient."
Lan Yu Xi rubbed her forehead, "Were Zhao Zhao and Mu Mu scared?"
"No, they are more resilient than we imagine... Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
Lan Yu Xi shook her head and slid off his lap to sit on the seat.
Seeing that she was truly fine, Nan Xiao took out his phone and made a call, "Dad, Xi Bao is awake. Please let everyone know in the group chat that she's alright."
Lan Hao Lin snorted displeasely, "Now you're ordering me around? Go into the group chat yourself and say it!"
Nan Xiao said innocently, "You rejected my application last time."
"There was such a thing? How come I don't remember?"
"Then shall I apply again now?"
"Hurry up!" Lan Hao Lin asked coldly, "Does Xi'er say she feels unwell anywhere? Do you need to go to the hospital for a check-up?"
"I just asked her, no need to go to the hospital... Dad, I've applied to join the group chat."
"Approved, go in and tell everyone Xi'er is fine, and then tell them they don't need to wait for me. Your mother and I are going to the hospital to see Han Yi with Zhao Zhao and Mu Mu. We won't be back for lunch."
"Okay." Nan Xiao slightly raised his eyebrows and opened WeChat, entering the group chat.
Nan Xiao: [Xi'er is awake, everyone, don't worry. Dad and Mom are going to the hospital to see Han Yi, we won't be back for lunch. Let's go to Xiao Hetang for lunch.]
Lan Xiao Wu: [Whoa, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. When did you sneak in?]
Lan Xiao Wu: [What's going on? What happened to Xi'er?]
Lan Zi Xin: [Everyone went to the mountain to pay respects to my parents. Xi'er was too heartbroken and gave herself an acupuncture treatment.]
Lan Xiao Qi: [(Facepalm) She must have been so stimulated to resort to acupuncture to solve her problems!]
Lan Mu Guo: [It's good that she's fine. Tell Xi'er that I and Qi Yue are going to buy her ice cream. You guys go to the restaurant first.]
Nan Xiao: [Okay.]
Lan Mu Si: [I'm done with class. I'll pick up Pei Pei and meet you guys later.]
Zheng Pei Pei: [I'm also just finished with class. I'll go by myself, don't come to pick me up, it's too troublesome. Does Yu Xi want anything else to eat? I'll bring it to you.]
Lan Yu Xi: [I don't want anything specific. You'd better let my second brother pick you up, otherwise, none of us will be at ease.]
Zheng Pei Pei: [Okay, I'll listen to you.]
Lan Yu Xi exited WeChat and called Zhao Zhao on his watch phone, "Mom is fine now. You and your sister listen to Grandma and Grandpa. How about letting Daddy make you something delicious tonight?"
Zhao Zhao asked in a deep voice, "Mom, I'll look after my sister. You don't need to worry."
"Mom, does your head still hurt?" Mu Mu asked in a childish voice.
"It doesn't hurt anymore. This episode wasn't serious, so don't worry about Mom."
"Then I'm relieved. Mom, you should also be relieved. I'll be very good~"
Lan Yu Xi smiled and said, "Mom knew you were the best."
"Xi'er, are you really alright?" Tang Wan's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I'm really fine. I gave myself an acupuncture treatment because I was afraid of an episode, but I'm completely fine now."
"Your father and I are going to see Han Yi today. Otherwise, your father and I would have come home with you."
As soon as Tang Wan finished speaking, Nan Xiao handed his phone to Lan Yu Xi.
Lan Mu Wei: [I just saw WeChat. Dad, Mom, don't come over. Go back and stay with Xi'er.]
Lan Yu Xi smiled and pressed the voice key.
[I'm perfectly fine, I don't need Mom and Dad to accompany me. Han Yi, however, is at a critical stage right now and can't be disappointed. And you, take care of yourself, Han Yi still needs you.]
Lan Mu Wei: [Don't always worry about others, take care of yourself first. Seeing you relapse almost gave me a cardiac arrest.]
Lan Yu Xi pouted and picked up her own phone, "Mom, did you hear that? My third brother is lecturing me again!"
Mu Mu covered her mouth and giggled.
Zhao Zhao also smiled with his eyes crinkled.
Lan Hao Lin leaned over and smiled, "Wait, when Dad gets there, I'll teach him a lesson!"
Lan Yu Xi smiled happily, "I knew Dad loved me the most!"
Lan Xiao Liu looked at his sister's brilliant smile and his eyes darkened.
He felt heartache! And powerlessness! This feeling was awful!
Lan Yu Xi hung up the phone and looked at him with a smile, "What are you doing? You're making it sound like I'm about to kick the bucket!"
Lan Xiao Liu pretended to be angry, "Don't talk nonsense! You'll definitely live longer than me! Spit three times quickly!"
Lan Yu Xi laughed, "You're a fine young man of the new era, why do you still believe in this stuff?"
"Hurry up!"
Lan Yu Xi pouted and spat three times consecutively before Lan Xiao Liu let her off the hook.
Nan Xiao curved his lips into a smile, put down his phone, and pulled her into his arms, "I've always wanted to ask, why did Dad reject my application before?"
Lan Xiao Liu gave him an exasperated glance, "He said you put on too much airs. We had all been in the group for two days, and you only applied then."
Nan Xiao smiled helplessly, "That's because I wasn't in the country."
