Chapter 1339: Chapter 1339 Major Gunfight Incident

The little girl blinked her eyes, pondering for a moment.

"Also like the bow on Xiaoxiao’s head," the little girl said, pointing to another girl playing nearby.

Xiao Mo turned his head to look, and the blue bow on the girl’s head was very pretty and cute.

"Which do you like more, the lily or the bow?"

The little girl blinked her eyes again, shyly said: "The bow."

Xiao Mo stood up, smiled, and gently patted her head: "Okay."

After saying that, Xiao Mo left the hospital.

The little girl tilted her head and looked at Xiao Mo; this big brother was kind of strange, but he was really handsome.

She stared at Xiao Mo’s figure for a while, then continued to lower her head, smelling her lilies, and swinging her little legs back and forth.

Not long after, Xiao Mo came back. This time, he had a pink tote bag in his hand.

The little girl tilted her head again and asked him, "Big brother, what’s in your hand? The bag is so pretty. Do you like pink too? Only little princesses like pink!"

Xiao Mo smiled as he walked over, opened the bag, and took out several bows and some pretty hair clips.

"Wow, big brother, it’s so beautiful! So many things!" the little girl gazed eagerly.

"Do you like them?"

"I like, I like!" The little girl nodded repeatedly.

"If you like them, I can give them to you," Xiao Mo smiled.

"Really? All for me?"

"Mhm."

The little girl bit her finger, her big eyes sparkling with joy.

But then she shook her head, "Mommy said not to take things from strangers. Big brother, are you a bad guy? Mommy said, bad people will abduct children and sell them to the mountains."

"Big brother is certainly not a bad guy, and I’m not giving it to you for free. Would you like to exchange your flower for these things?"

"I would!" The little girl shouted almost without thinking.

She had already played with the lily for a while, but she didn’t have a bow.

"Okay, let’s exchange," Xiao Mo coaxed.

After spending a long time in the hospital, Xiao Mo found himself suddenly becoming more patient, and his temper had improved a lot.

He used to be impatient with children; he thought they were difficult to manage and didn’t understand things, often being mysteriously temperamental.

"Okay, okay, let’s exchange, big brother, you mustn’t back out."

"How could big brother back out? I’ll give you the things first."

Xiao Mo put the tote bag into the little girl’s hands, and as he touched her soft hands, a wave of softness arose in his heart.

The little girl clutched the tote bag tightly, handing the lily to Xiao Mo: "Big brother, this is for you. So you like lilies too..."

"Mhm."

Xiao Mo curled his lips into a smile, touching her black hair.

"Big brother, this bow is so pretty, but I can’t reach my braid."

"I’ll help you," Xiao Mo took the green bow from her hand.

It was his first time doing this kind of thing for a little girl, not as impatient as he expected; instead, he was more patient than he imagined.

After tying the bow for the little girl, under the sunlight, he squinted to look.

Douding-sized little girl was lively and adorable, clutching the pink tote bag, laughing brighter than the sunshine.

No knowing how much time had passed, Xiao Mo finally took the lilies back to the ward.

Unexpectedly, Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu were there, and he casually put the lilies on the table.

Xu Chaomu smiled and asked, "What about Chuqing?"

"She’s gone."

"Didn’t you ask her to come up and sit for a while?"

"She was busy," said Xiao Mo.

"Isn’t that Chuqing’s lily flower? Did she give it to you?" Xu Chaomu smiled.

"She said she couldn’t fit it in her car and just dumped it on me," Xiao Mo replied nonchalantly.

"Oh, it’s quite a coincidence to meet Chuqing. Shen Chi and I were just about to go down, and then it turns out she had already left," Xu Chaomu said, looking genuinely disappointed.

Xiao Mo was no fool; he knew that Xu Chaomu and Shen Chi had intentionally left with Xiaobao.

He casually said, "She came with her advisor for an event; she should be staying in the United States for a few days."

"That’s great; last time I saw her was on New Year’s Eve."

Xu Chaomu was reminded of that night again, when tens of thousands of fireworks burst into the sky above C City, and she met Shen Chi by the river.

In fact, looking back now, she chose to forget the unhappy incidents, so... what remains are happy memories.

Moreover, she had quite a bit to drink that night, and had forgotten everything she had said while drunk.

"Mmm." Xiao Mo didn’t say much, walking over to the table to pour a glass of water.

"Let’s go see Shui Fu," Xu Chaomu said, taking Xiaobao by the hand, ready to leave.

"Okay," Xiao Mo nodded.

Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu left Xiao Mo’s hospital room together, and Xu Chaomu winked at Shen Chi.

"Why do you look so smug?" Shen Chi smiled.

"Didn’t you see? Xiao Mo definitely coaxed that flower from a little girl," said Xu Chaomu. "Do you think Xiao Mo likes Chuqing?"

"You should ask Xiao Mo."

"Aren’t you his boss? He’s been with you for so many years, you should know him well."

"You’ve been with me for many years, but I don’t fully understand you either."

"Damn it, are you really trying to be confrontational?" Xu Chaomu snapped, nearly stomping on him.

Fortunately, Shen Chi was quick and dodged.

"Weren’t we going to see Shui Fu? Let’s go," Shen Chi said, wrapping his arm around her waist.

Xiaobao was left behind on the spot, innocently watching the two walking ahead, feeling quite annoyed.

...

Xia Chuqing stayed in the hotel for a day, idly playing on her phone.

She came specifically to see Xiao Mo, and she had heard about a major gunfight at a certain port when Xiao Mo was injured.

Xia Chuqing wasn’t sure if Shen Chi and Xiao Mo’s injuries were related to the gunfight, but she was still worried about Xiao Mo.

However, Xiao Mo was indifferent to her, almost treating her like a stranger.

Thus, Xia Chuqing stayed in the hotel for three days, and Xiao Mo didn’t call her even once; however, Xu Chaomu invited her out for afternoon tea.

Xia Chuqing wasn’t in the mood and excused herself, planning to fly back home.

On the phone, Xu Chaomu said, "Chuqing, if you really like someone, be brave and pursue them, he doesn’t have a girlfriend."

"I don’t like anyone," Xia Chuqing responded indifferently.

"Is that so? Is it true disinterest, or are you afraid of rejection? They say you lose out on love if you don’t fight for it."

Xu Chaomu also knew that, being such a wonderful girl, Xia Chuqing was probably pursued by many in school, and probably never had to chase someone.

"It doesn’t matter if it’s gone," Xia Chuqing said stubbornly.

But the very next second, she helplessly remembered Xiao Mo’s face, his clean and handsome features seemingly still before her eyes.

Never had anyone fascinated her so, many times during classes she found herself daydreaming.
