"Then recite it for , little brother. I learned this ancient poem back in the day, but I’ve kind of forgotten it now. Can you guide a bit?"
"Sure, Jingdong, listen carefully now."
"From the front, it looks like a ridge, from the side, a peak. From far or near, high or low, it appears different. Unable to recognize Lushan’s true face, simply because I am in the mountain itself."
"Can you explain what this poem ans?"
Jiang Wan blinked her bright eyes: "This poem ans that Lushan appears as continuous ridges and towering peaks whether viewed from the front or the side."
"And from far, near, high, or low, Lushan looks completely different."
"The reason I can’t see Lushan’s true face is because I am within it."
Zhang Jingdong listened to these words, watching Jiang Wan’s adorable and innocent appearance, and suddenly, for the first ti, thought, "How wonderful it would be to have such an adorable daughter in the future."
Thinking of this, he instinctively turned to Jiang Lai.
He found that Jiang Lai was also looking at him.
Theirs eyes t, and a heartfelt smile appeared on both their faces.
Zhang Jingdong said spontaneously, "Wan’er, you’re so smart. What do you want to be when you grow up?"
Jiang Wan pursed her lips and then said firmly, "I want to be a doctor."
"A doctor? Why do you want to be a doctor?"
"Because once I’m a doctor, I can completely cure grandma’s illness, and in the future, everyone around will be healthy."
"Ambitious. Then you must continue to study hard. How about this, if you really get into dical school, not only will I make you a doctor, but I’ll also give you a very special gift, how about that?"
Jiang Wan imdiately bead with joy, "Okay!"
The three of them talked and laughed on their way ho.
After dinner, Zhang Jingdong, as usual, went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, then went upstairs with Jiang Lai.
At this ti, Zhang Jingdong asked, "What’s grandma suffering from, anyway?"
Jiang Lai paused, then replied, "... a tumor, but it’s in the early stages. She’s already had one surgery, but because of her age, she’ll need a second surgery later on."
Zhang Jingdong suddenly understood and said, "Alright, call when the ti cos. I can arrange for the best hospital and the best doctors."
Jiang Lai felt a warmth in her heart and nodded, "...Okay."
For the next three hours, Zhang Jingdong explained so advanced photography lessons to Jiang Lai while making the most of the opportunity to act playfully.
Around midnight, Jiang Lai reluctantly saw Zhang Jingdong off downstairs.
Zhang Jingdong got in the car and was about to make a move on Long Yue when his phone suddenly rang.
He glanced at his phone.
It was a text from Zhang Yuqi: The company has helped bring my mom to Jiangdu. Thank you, boss. Where are you now?
Zhang Jingdong thought for a mont and then called Zhang Yuqi.
It only rang twice before the other side picked up: "Hello, boss!"
"What is it, is your mom next to you?"
"No, she’s already asleep."
"Then why do you keep calling boss?"
"...Fine, Old Zhang..."
"I don’t want you to call Old Zhang tonight either."
"So... what do you want to call you?"
"Take a guess? It also starts with ’Old’."
"Starts with ’Old’? How about... Old Kid?"
"Nope."
"Old Grandpa?"
"Not even close."
"Old Rascal?"
"Hey, you’re doing this on purpose. I’ll give you one last chance. If you don’t get it right, I’ll deal with you the traditional way when I get back."
"Tch... Alright, let think."
Zhang Yuqi stood on the hotel room balcony, looking at the river in the distance, a blush gradually spreading across her face.
"...I know what you want to call you?"
"Let’s hear it?"
"But if I get it right, you have to agree to one of my requests?"
"No problem, if you get it right, I’ll et any request you have!"
"Really? You said it yourself?"
"A gentleman’s word is his bond."
"Alright, then... listen carefully... hubby."
Zhang Jingdong’s heart leapt with joy, but he said, "Your voice is too soft, I didn’t quite catch that!"
Zhang Yuqi knew Zhang Jingdong was doing it on purpose, but she cooperatively raised her voice: "...hubby!"
Now Zhang Jingdong was completely overjoyed!
No exaggeration, this was the most satisfying and thrilling "hubby" he’d heard since he had been reborn.
Especially since Zhang Yuqi’s voice was so distinctive, and in her past life, she had been a true superstar. Zhang Jingdong wouldn’t have even dared to dream of her calling him "hubby."
Sensational! This feeling was just too fabulous!
He couldn’t help himself and almost commanded, "Once more."
Zhang Yuqi sensed Zhang Jingdong’s delight and said coyly, "Hubby!"
Then she quickly repeated it twice.
"Hubby hubby!"
Zhang Jingdong imdiately scored her highly: "That’s truly my girlfriend, so thoughtful!"
"Alright, what request do you have? Because of those few ’hubby’s, even if you wanted to bring back that rabbit from the Moon, I’d agree!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuqi was instantly overjoyed: "Haha, no need to go to the Moon. How long would that keep us apart?"
"My request is, the day after tomorrow I’ll be shooting a comrcial, and I want you to be there with . It’s my first shoot after all, I’m feeling quite unsure, and only with you around will I be at ease."
"Can you, hubby?"
Zhang Jingdong felt a warmth in his heart: "Of course! I’m away from ho, but I’ll arrange everything tomorrow, and at the latest, I’ll be back in Jiangdu by the morning the day after tomorrow. I’ll be with you all day!"
