145 Visit Her Brother at Work

After exchanging a few words with her Auntie Yun Shu and Qi Yue, Zhang Li Xue took Bai Xi Xi away.

According to her Auntie Yun Shu, Bai Qi was supposed to come over and pick up his sister in the evening. Hearing this, Zhang Li Xue decided to accompany Bai Xi Xi until it was time for Bai Qi to clock off work.

Bai Xi Xi sat obediently in the passenger’s seat while looking out the window.

When Zhang Li Xue shot a glance at her, she could not miss the smile on Bai Xi Xi’s face. Zhang Li Xue could tell just how much Bai Xi Xi was excited to see her brother again.

After driving for a while, they finally arrived at the hospital. Zhang Li Xue found a parking spot and pulled over. Then, she helped Bai XI Xi and the two of them walked over to the hospital building.

Bai Xi Xi was holding a paper bag in her hand tightly.

When Auntie Yun Shu heard that they were planning to visit Bai Qi at the hospital, she packed a few sandwiches and let Bai Xi Xi send them over to her brother.

Bai Xi Xi thanked Yun Shu and excitedly peeked at the packed sandwiches once in a while.

This was the first time that she had come to visit her brother at work while bringing some snacks. Bai Xi Xi thought that this feeling was quite great.

Zhang Li Xue had frequently visited the hospital to see her uncle and was very familiar with its surrounding. She found the department quickly and headed over to the nurse’s station.

Coincidentally, it was Nurse Tian who was on duty.

The nurse stood up and greeted Zhang Li Xue amiably. “Miss Zhang, are you here to meet Doctor Qi? He’s not on duty today.”

Zhang Li Xue smiled. She glanced at Bai Xi Xi and spoke, “No. I’m here to meet Doctor Bai. Is he on duty?”

“He’s here. But...” Nurse Tian’s expression changed as she thought of Bai Qi. “Doctor Bai went upstairs to see the director. Miss Zhang, if you wanted to look for him, you will have to wait for a while.”

“That’s fine.” Zhang Li Xue heaved a sigh in relief. “We can wait.”

At least, Bai Qi was not in the middle of an operation. Otherwise, the two of them will have to wait for a long time before they could meet him.

Nurse Tian smiled again. It was then that she noticed the little girl beside Zhang Li Xue. “Miss Zhang, this is...”

Zhang Li Xue was about to introduce Bai Xi XI as Bai Qi’s sister. However, thinking that Bai Qi probably did not want others to know about his sister, Zhang Li Xue decided not to speak about it. “This is my little friend, Xi Xi.”

Nurse Tian exchanged a few polite words with Bai Xi Xi.

As they weren’t sure just how long they will have to wait for Bai Qi, Zhang Li Xue suggested to Bai Xi Xi to head over to the hospital’s garden.

Anyway, it would be better to be in the open air. After all, Bai Xi Xi was still young and it was probably not a good idea to let her stay in the hospital building for too long.

Nurse Tian promised to deliver the message to Bai Qi and watched as the two girls walked away.

...

The two girls were holding hands as they walked over to the garden. Seeing the playground area nearby, Zhang Li Xue turned to Bai Xi Xi and asked, “Xi Xi, do you want to go and play?”

Bai Xi Xi followed her line of gaze and frowned. “Pretty Sister, I’m not a little kid. I’m old enough to play at the playground.”

Zhang Li Xue recalled that when she was Bai Xi Xi’s age, she would still pester her parents to bring her and her little brother to the playground.

She could not help but wonder if Bai Xi Xi was trying very hard to grow up fast so that her brother would not worry about her.

A faint smile appeared on her lips as the thought came to her mind. Zhang Li Xue hoped that the little girl would take time to grow up.

In her memory, there were once when she had hoped that she could grow up fast. Because of that, Zhang Li Xue had taken the special exam to skip a year at school.

Later, her aunt mentioned that she could actually skip two years because she was smart. However, her parents would not let her do it. They wanted her to enjoy her childhood while she still can.

Zhang Li Xue thought that it was good that she could enjoy her childhood and experience what the others had.

Therefore, looking at Bai Xi Xi right now made her sad. Especially knowing that she wanted to grow up fast because her parents had passed away.

Zhang Li Xue crouched down and instinctively hugged the little girl. Her hands patted Bai Xi XI’s back gently.

The sudden movement made Bai Xi Xi startled. However, a few seconds later, Bai Xi Xi began to relax. She found that the way the Pretty Sister’s hand patted her back was very comforting. She could not recall if anyone had hugged her this way.

In the end, Bai Xi Xi did not say anything and instead, she began to enjoy this way of hugging.

After a while, the two of them parted. Zhang Li Xue took Bai Xi Xi to the shady spot under the tree and the two sat down to enjoy the evening breeze.

Zhang Li Xue began to ask Bai Xi Xi about kindergarten.

The little girl happily told Zhang Li Xue about her kindergarten. In a few months, she was going to enter school, and Bai Xi Xi was looking forward to it.

While they were talking about school, Bai Xi Xi’s expression gradually fell.

As she recalled the parents and teacher meeting in a few days, Bai Xi Xi began to look at the Pretty Sister with a complicated gaze.

Zhang Li Xue tilted her head to one side when she noticed the way Bai Xi Xi was looking at her. “Xi Xi, what’s wrong?”

After a brief hesitation, Bai Xi Xi spoke again. “Pretty Sister, are you very busy at work?”

Zhang Li Xue chuckled. “It’s not bad.”

“As busy as my brother?”

Zhang Li Xue pondered the reason why Bai Xi Xi was asking her this question. “No. Of course, not.”

“Then, Pretty Sister, can you help me?”

“How do you want me to help? If it was something that I can do, of course, I will help.”

Bai Xi Xi clenched her hands into fists as she gathered her courage. “Next week, there will be a teacher and parents meeting at the kindergarten. I hope that my brother would come. But, if my brother is too busy with work, can you attend this meeting for him?”
