Chapter 520: Chapter 520: Getting Beaten Is Out of the Question (2)

"It’s mainly just in case."

When the doctor said this, Wang Haoran had already run into the infirmary.

"Mom."

Tang Jinglan, leaning on the hospital bed, took a sip of glucose given by the doctor and looked at her worried son, feeling soft-hearted again.

Moreover, the matter involved the most important people in the company. Tang Jinglan was very aware that some things should not be said in front of outsiders.

Otherwise, it would lead to disaster.

At this moment, a quiet and gentle girl walked in.

Seeing that Tang Jinglan was fine, the girl smiled and said, "It’s good you’re okay, you really scared your son."

"The doctor said you probably fainted from low blood sugar, but it’s still recommended you go to a county hospital for a thorough check-up."

"Mom, it was this big sister who carried you here."

"Thank you," Tang Jinglan smiled and thanked the kind stranger who helped her.

"It was nothing. I’ll head back to the dorm now."

Feeling his mother’s gaze, Wang Haoran quickly wiped away his tears and followed the big sister out.

"Big sister, let me walk you out."

After a short while, Wang Haoran returned with his head down.

Looking at her son’s demeanor, Tang Jinglan felt both guilty and heartbroken.

She even thought to herself that if she hadn’t insisted on the divorce back then, maybe her son wouldn’t be so withdrawn.

"Let’s go back to the dorm."

"Mom, the doctor said········"

Tang Jinglan waved her hand and said, "It’s nothing; I know what’s going on. It’s just because you scared me."

Back at the dorm, the two were silent. Tang Jinglan was more worried and fearful.

The boss must already know about such a big thing.

"Sigh~" Tang Jinglan sighed lightly, resigning herself to fate.

What’s the worst that could happen? At most, just move to another city and continue living.

"Come on, let’s go eat."

Wang Haoran was prepared to get a beating, but his mom just sighed.

"Mom~"

"It’s alright; don’t be scared."

In the office building, Xia Xiaomin, having arranged all the business trips, just stepped into her office when she received Zero’s latest notification that someone fainted in the dorm.

Without a word, Xia Xiaomin immediately turned around to go check.

But as she reached the ground floor, Zero pushed another update.

After reading it, Xia Xiaomin breathed a sigh of relief and headed back.

Good that nothing happened, or else tonight’s headlines would have been Candy Technology.

With a beep~ Candy, covering for Zhou Yaling, directly handed the phone to her.

"Bun, Little Grey, let’s go; brother is waiting downstairs."

By the time Zhou Yaling realized, Candy had already pushed her bike out, taking two pets with her, and ran into Xia Xiaomin returning.

"Bye, Sister Xia."

Candy ran past Xia Xiaomin like a gust of wind.

Shortly after, Zhou Yaling also came out.

In the elevator hall, Zhou Yaling, manipulating her hero, laughed and said, "Why’d you run so fast? You still have to wait for the elevator."

"Nyeh-nyeh-nyeh~"

Zhou Yaling chuckled lightly, showing no intention of arguing with Candy. Go ahead and laugh now; there’ll be tears soon enough.

Hehe, recruiting a little follower in kindergarten is quite fun, Zhou Yaling didn’t believe her brother was unaware.

She was almost certain her brother had already found a stick downstairs.

But soon, Zhou Yaling was disappointed.

Sitting in the car, Zhou Yaling looked around but didn’t see any sign of a stick.

Mo Jingchun, puzzled, furrowed his brow and asked, "What are you looking for?"

"A stick!"

As soon as Zhou Yaling mentioned the stick, Mo Jingchun understood.

This person just likes to stir up trouble and watch the excitement.

Little did she know that Candy had personally told Zhou Yaling.

By this time, Candy was a bit dissatisfied.

"Sister, you’re acting weird today. Since I got back, you’ve been hoping I’d get beaten."

The atmosphere in the car turned unusually quiet. Zhou Yaling awkwardly smiled, timidly touching her nose.

"Did I?"

"You did!"

It seemed Candy found an outlet to complain to Mo Jingchun.

"Brother, you wouldn’t believe it, when Guoguo got home, sister insisted I wear thick wool pants, the kind you wear in winter."

Hearing this, Mo Jingchun was surprised.

"Your sister really cares about you."

But as Mo Jingchun thought about it, something felt off. Why would she worry about Candy getting hurt, yet ask for a stick as soon as she got in the car?

It seemed very contradictory.

Throughout the ride, Mo Jingchun said nothing, making Zhou Yaling restless inside.

Back home, unwilling to give in, Zhou Yaling went to the kitchen to cook dinner, while Mo Jingchun and Candy sat on the sofa watching TV.

In the kitchen, the more Zhou Yaling thought, the angrier she got, and she tossed the fish onto the floor.

"Eat, eat, one person cooks, everyone eats."

"What are you doing in the kitchen?"

Feeling guilty, Zhou Yaling quickly picked up the fish from the floor, coughing to disguise her embarrassment, "It’s nothing, the fish jumped out of the sink."

In the living room, watching cartoons, Candy suddenly asked, puzzled:

"Brother, did we buy live fish today?"

"No, we only have frozen fish in the fridge."

"Can dead fish still move?"

"Probably······ not."

"Let’s not talk about this. Brother, I heard you got a little follower in kindergarten today?"

"Aha! Brother, you knew! It must have been Zero or sister who told you."

At this, Mo Jingchun, leaning on the sofa, smiled silently.

Meanwhile, in the kitchen, everything went quiet. Zhou Yaling, holding a frying pan, pressed her ear against the wall, eavesdropping, ready to step in as the ’goddess of justice’ to save Candy if he got scolded.

In front of kids, someone has to play the good guy, and someone the bad guy.

But Zhou Yaling was disappointed.

Her brother just said, "Oh," and there was nothing more.

How could it just be an "Oh"?

Later that night, Candy went upstairs for who knows what, and Zhou Yaling couldn’t wait to approach her brother and ask, "Brother, aren’t you going to do something about Candy getting a follower in kindergarten?"

Mo Jingchun glanced at Zhou Yaling, calmly stating, "I’ve got it under control."

"Besides, that child is different."

"What’s different? Aren’t they all just kids?"

After quietly watching Zhou Yaling for a while, Mo Jingchun continued, "If you could, like Candy, listen to a tune and then play it on the piano, you might think differently about others being kids."

"Brother, are you saying······ Candy’s follower is also a genius?"

"Not exactly dumb, at least their brain can keep up." Zhou Yaling was stunned. Are geniuses so common nowadays that they’re everywhere?
