Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids-Chapter 163: Girls Turn on You Faster Than Flipping a Page

Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Girls Turn on You Faster Than Flipping a Page

"Brother, does it hurt?"

In the hospital’s IV room, a needle was inserted into Mo Jingchun’s right hand, and the medicine dripped drop by drop into his body through the transparent tube.

Candy tilted her head, curiously watching Mo Jingchun, seemingly thinking she also wanted to try it.

But there was a feeling that told Candy that injections could hurt a lot.

Mo Jingchun patted Candy’s little head, smiled, and said:

"Not even a bit painful."

"Eh～"

Candy retreated into Zhou Yaling’s arms, laughed loudly, and shouted:

"Brother is lying; injections really hurt."

Mo Jingchun slightly raised the corners of his lips, and with a faint smile, said:

"Oh? How does Guoguo know injections hurt if she’s never had an IV?"

Candy, hiding in Zhou Yaling’s arms, looked at her brother and hummed twice, arrogantly saying:

"Guoguo just knows."

Mo Jingchun and Zhou Yaling exchanged a glance, smiled, and didn’t say anything.

Mo Jingchun knew that perhaps over the past two years, Candy had some vague memories of getting multiple vaccinations.

Though very unclear, Candy herself wasn’t quite sure.

Maybe because Mo Jingchun was sick, Candy was particularly well-behaved and sensible today. During the two-plus hours Mo Jingchun was having the IV, the little one was so considerate that she didn’t crawl over him at all.

Even after noon, when the little one was hungry and collapsed onto Zhou Yaling, she didn’t speak up to say she was hungry.

Of course, Mo Jingchun and Zhou Yaling couldn’t let the little one wait on an empty stomach.

Seeing the lackluster Candy, Mo Jingchun asked Zhou Yaling to take Candy out to eat and to bring back a portion for him.

"What do you want to eat?"

Mo Jingchun thought for a moment and said:

"Hmm~ If you can get breakfast, bring me some rice porridge and soy milk, that would be the best."

"If not, just something light will do."

Mo Jingchun wasn’t really hungry; he felt he couldn’t eat much either.

After Zhou Yaling left with Candy, Mo Jingchun leaned back on the worn long iron chair, dazedly.

Humans are fragile; without caution, we get sick, and even an ordinary little cold can escalate to a life-threatening situation.

More frightening is that these days, the number of people contracting cancer, one of the top five terminal diseases, keeps increasing.

Shaking his head, casting aside these unrelated worries, Mo Jingchun closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep.

Across the street from the hospital, inside a village-style restaurant, Candy frowned and asked:

"Sister, brother likes to eat meat; can we save some for him?"

Zhou Yaling scooped another piece of braised pork into Candy’s bowl, squinted her eyes slightly, and smiled:

"Brother is sick, so he can’t eat meat."

"Candy is still growing, so you eat more."

Candy used a spoon to stuff the braised pork into her mouth, took a bite, and even licked the sweet juice on her lips.

"Sister, is that really so?"

"But the braised pork is so delicious; Guoguo really wants to bring some for brother to eat."

"It’s okay, next time we come, bring brother to eat again."

If Mo Jingchun were here, he’d definitely retort to Zhou Yaling.

Mo Jingchun: Oh, thanks a lot, but not next time.

A place like a hospital, who would willingly go without reason!

At least Mo Jingchun had a resistance to hospitals, especially the county hospital where he was currently hooked up for IV.

Returning to the hospital with the boxed meal, Zhou Yaling held Candy’s little hand. Usually hopping and jumping, when Candy saw her brother asleep on the chair, tears instantly flowed down.

"Sister, brother cried."

"Sister, why did brother cry?"

"Sister, is it because Guoguo was not good?"

"Sister, did Guoguo misbehave and make brother angry?"

Zhou Yaling crouched down, hugging Candy, soothing softly.

"No, that’s not it."

"Brother just had a nightmare while sleeping."

If she remembered correctly, Zhou Yaling recalled her aunt passing away in this hospital.

Hearing from her dad and grandpa, Mo Jingchun looked like a different person when leaving the hospital.

Zhou Yaling softly whispered to Candy: "Candy, let’s sit and wait for brother to wake up."

"Mm~" still sniffling, Candy nodded vigorously.

Mo Jingchun woke up because he needed to pee. Perhaps the medicine was working, Mo Jingchun felt a lot better, even had an appetite to eat.

Glancing at the adult and child swiping short videos, Mo Jingchun quietly wiped away the tear stains at the corner of his eye.

Seeing there wasn’t much medicine left, Mo Jingchun waited another ten minutes for the IV to finish before going to the bathroom.

Sitting in the car, after eating the still-warm food, Mo Jingchun instantly felt revived.

Mo Jingchun glanced at the emergency entrance, then drove Zhou Yaling and Candy back to the company.

In the afternoon, Mo Jingchun sat in the office, barely moving.

The air conditioning, usually on, was also turned off by Mo Jingchun.

The heat, unbearable for Candy, made her flee after not even ten minutes in the office post-nap in the air-conditioned bedroom.

Candy first went to the CEO’s office on the same floor, found nothing tasty, and then wandered into Su Wenyan’s office on the same floor.

Looking at the fruit tray filled with her favorite fruits and snacks, Candy bit her finger, looking at Su Wenyan sweetly asking:

"Su, can Guoguo have a taste?"

"It looks so delicious."

Usually, Su Wenyan would have put down her work and chatted with the adorable Candy.

But these days, Su Wenyan was extremely busy, overseeing the entire production and sales process of nearsighted glasses.

Without looking up, Su Wenyan hastily told Candy: "It’s all prepared for Candy; Candy, eat up."

Yet Candy wasn’t greedy. Facing the full tray of treats, Candy only took a candy stick and a sugar mandarin.

Looking at the busy Su with no time to play with her, Candy pouted and left.

Over an hour later, Candy, tired from playing with Zhou Yaling in the first-floor lobby, sat alone on the sofa, dangling her slippers, bored watching the people coming and going in the lobby.

At this time, Zhou Yaling, who was registering visitor information, was startled by Candy’s cries.

When she looked up, she saw Candy, who had been sitting nicely on the sofa, glaring angrily at Bun, looking blank-faced a short distance away.

Between Bun and Candy was a bag of half-eaten bread.

"Bun, you snatched from my Guoguo; I’m going to tell brother."

"Guoguo is so mad."

Getting more upset the more she thought about it, tears welled up again in Candy’s eyes.

"Alright, alright, sister still has candy here."

"Candy, don’t cry, okay?"

In an instant, when she got the candy from Zhou Yaling, Candy stopped crying abruptly.
