9 Back to the hospital (EDT)

Su Ci Yi was now back to her own bed and room. Just as she was about to take a nap, she felt that someone was staring at her. Then the next moment, an apple was thrown on her side. Though her eyes are closed, her senses were still sharp and she caught it just before it landed on her face.

"Awesome!" A loud voice of a child was heard.

"Are you really a crazy woman?" Qin Tao went to her bedside and stared at the apple on her hands that had crushed on the woman's hand.

Qin Tao backed a few steps away from her.

Su Ci Yi intended to crush it in order to give a scare on this child. Who would have thought that he just back a few steps away?

Su Ci Yi doesn't want to deal with this child anymore and was about to ignore him.

But the child was persistent and if she won't give in, she's pretty sure that she'll suffer in the end.

"What do you want with me?" In the end, she gives in to the child.

"Make me your disciple! Master, Qin Tao will promise to stop pestering you if you will accept me. I, Qin Tao will do his best to follow your instructions in hardships and difficulty."

"Request rejected."

"Eh?"

"Master! Qin Tao will be a good child! You will not regret it."

Su Ci Yi regretted having to ask this question. Now she was even caught with her own actions.

Touching her temple, Su Ci Yi thinks well.

"Fine, I'll accept you. But you will do whatever instructions I will give. I don't want a slack off person. The moment I saw you neglecting your duties, I will kick you out. Got that?"

"YES MASTER!"

"Now then..." she thought for a while, thinking what would be her first step to do with this kid. "...I will start my cultivation now, I need a peaceful environment so I want you to guard that door. Don't let anyone disturb me."

Qin Tao was beaming with energy and said: "Yes Master!... Uhm, so master is a Daoist?"

"I only surpassed the qi condensation stage and turning to soul formation foundation. You'll know these when you grow up..."

"...Also, in order not to get bored, clean those pile of things that scattered on the floor. I don't want to see anything lying down there when I woke up."

Qin Tao then looked at the pile of papers and things on the ground, it was obvious that he is reluctant to do this.

Su Ci Yi saw his reluctance and teases " Oh if you don't want, I don't really mind."

"Qin Tao will clean it! Master only needed to focus on cultivating!"

Su Ci Yi's lips ark into a smile as she lay to bed and doze off into the darkness.

She only wanted to have a peaceful night without anyone disturbing her. Anyone who would dare will be immediately kicked out by her new recruit. It's like catching two birds with one stone.

***

As soon as Qin Yu got down, he immediately stormed off to that same room again. His face was full of black lines and he was exuding dark aura. Every medic he could pass would immediately run away ten meters from his space. No one really wanted to bump into him.

But that was not his concern, when he saw that kid, he will immediately tie him up and would ground him for almost a year. No matter how many times he wails or cries, he will not give in.

However, all those thoughts back down when he saw Qin Tao.

He was the one who opened the door. Upon seeing him, he showed a surprise reaction. Though it was only a few seconds.

Qin Yu entered the room, he wanted to see that woman and to settle scores to her. However, what he saw was a peacefully laden woman sleeping on her bed. Qin Yu didn't care about her and just about to storm and woke her up however Qin Tao grabbed him decisively. Qin Yu was towering Qin Tao and when he saw that his kid was signaling to keep silent with his sincere face, he couldn't help but follow him.

Qin Tao guided his father on the sofa nearby with his movement being careful and silent. Qin Yu pondered what happened to this child of his? Did he catch the sickness of this woman? If that's the case then he needs to talk to her...

"Shhhh!"

Qin Tao pulled him again down the sofa when he saw him aiming to wake his master.

"Master is sleeping, dad! I'll just tell her what you wanted to say." When Qin Tao was saying that, on his right hand he was holding a light broom. While trying to clean the mess on the floor, going to and fro to pick up the things littered and getting it back to its proper place. Together with Qin Tao's childish seriousness, Qin Yu's anger subsided.

He even offered his father a glass of water on his seat.

After cleaning the floor and making sure that everything is clear. No mess and rubbish on the ground, Qin Tao sigh a relief.

Qin Yu pondered what happened to this child.

Was he possessed by an evil spirit?

The Qin Tao who had been spoiled from his childhood and would never dare to listen to anyone was acting like a good boy in front of him?

"That is enough, did you do something wrong again?" Qin Yu can't help but voice out his doubt.

"Shhhhh!" A loud hissing noise. That was the answer he could get to the child. "Dad, don't let my Master woke up with your voice."
