"Cutie pie, cutie pie…"
As the nurses changed the needle and inserted it again, the little guy was smiling and calling out to Su Nianen the whole time.
Indeed, he was looking at Su Nianen.
He recognized Su Nianen.
Su Nianen looked at the little guy and suddenly felt tears well up in her eyes.
She had only taught this kid for one day, yet he recognized her already.
The little guy was still shouting 'cutie pie' and smiling.
Su Nianen was moved to tears. When she turned her head to secretly wipe her tears, she caught a glimpse of Sun Mo'er's disgusted gaze.
She did not take it to heart. The other party was probably disgusted with her, and naturally, it had nothing to do with the child.
Sun Mo'er watched from behind expressionlessly.
She thought to herself that the kid was a fool. It didn't matter how much she served him, he would always be a fool.
Su Nianen reached out and held the little guy's other hand. Her gaze became even gentler.
She was infertile, but she liked children, especially such beautiful children. Who wouldn't?
Gu Xichuan suddenly strode out of the ward. He was calming himself down.
His son recognized Su Nianen. How much progress was this?
Gu Xichuan's heart skipped a beat and he cried tears of joy.
Sun Mo'er immediately followed him out and positioned herself before Gu Xichuan, tears streaming down her face.
"Brother-in-law, did you hear that? Xuanxuan was talking. He's been talking the whole time."
Gu Xichuan said, "He's calling her."
He knew that his son was calling Su Nianen.
Sun Mo'er was overjoyed. Gu Xichuan was finally willing to communicate with her!
"Brother-in-law, in the future, I will definitely strictly control Xuanxuan's diet. Xuanxuan is allergic to kiwis, but no one discovered it before, that's unforgivable! Brother-in-law, don't worry, I'll definitely take good care of Xuanxuan."
"You've worked hard," Gu Xichuan said calmly. "Go back first."
"Huh?"
Sun Mo'er subconsciously glanced at Su Nianen in the ward. If he wanted her to leave, did that mean he wanted Su Nianen to stay?
"Brother-in-law, I'd better stay and take care of Xuanxuan. In the past, I was the one who accompanied him every night. Today, in this unfamiliar environment in the hospital, he won't feel a sense of security if I'm not around. Just let me stay and take care of Xuanxuan."
Gu Xichuan hesitated. A sense of security?
He quickly glanced into the ward. Yes, his son had probably found a sense of security with Su Nianen.
"Teacher Su is an outsider after all. We can't possibly trouble Teacher Su to take care of Xuanxuan." Sun Mo'er said.
Gu Xichuan silently agreed to Sun Mo'er's suggestion. She was overjoyed.
Su Nianen spent some time alone with Gu Tingxuan. She placed Gu Tingxuan's hand on her own again and again. After countless times, Su Nianen reached out to Gu Tingxuan and looked at him expectantly.
"Cutie pie, look at me. Look at me. Give Teacher Su your hand."
Su Nianen extended his hand, and Gu Tingxuan looked at her. Soon, his eyes either lost focus, or he looked elsewhere.
"Cutie pie, cutie pie?"
Su Nianen called out twice more, "Cutie pie Xuanxuan?"
"Cutie pie, cutie pie."
The little guy also began to shout along with Su Nianen, but he seemed to only know these two words.
Su Nianen retracted her hand and sighed slightly.
But there was no sense of defeat. She believed that the child would get better.
Gu Xichuan entered the ward. Su Nianen retracted her hand and turned to look at Gu Xichuan, not noticing the boy trying to raise his hand.
"Miss Su, I'll send you back," Gu Xichuan said.
Su Nianen smiled. "It's no problem, I'll take a taxi myself."
"I'm free."
"You should spend more time with Xuanxuan," Su Nianen refused.
"Teacher Su, will you come tomorrow? Xuanxuan has class in the morning," Gu Xichuan said hurriedly.
Su Nianen nodded. "I'll come."
