The night was slightly cool.
Yang Chen didn’t feel much of it, but Chen Siyan shrank her neck and wrapped herself tightly.
Although Ye Xin had already bought the smallest size clothes for her, they still seed sowhat oversized on Chen Siyan.
She... was too thin!
So thin it seed as if a gust of wind could blow her over.
Watching Chen Siyan huddle against the wind, Yang Chen felt a heaviness in his heart.
He couldn’t help but take out a cigarette.
"Brother!"
Just as Yang Chen was about to light a cigarette, he was stopped by Chen Siyan.
Yang Chen looked at Chen Siyan.
With her shiny black eyes, Chen Siyan said to Yang Chen, "Smoking is bad for your health, you shouldn’t smoke."
Hearing Chen Siyan’s concern, Yang Chen felt a tremor in his heart, his nose inexplicably tingled, and he smiled, "Alright, I won’t smoke!"
Saying that, Yang Chen put the cigarette away, then wrapped his arm around Chen Siyan’s shoulders, giving her so warmth.
Walking below the ward building at night, the quietness was unsettling.
Chen Siyan softly said, "Brother, I’m sorry, it’s my fault you and the director are burdened."
Yang Chen was stunned and said with a frown, "Silly girl, for family, there’s no such thing as a burden!"
Chen Siyan shook her head, "No, it’s my fault burdening you all! The director is over eighty, and he still takes the bus every day to co to take care of . These past few days, he’s been staying at a small inn outside, every ti I see the director, I want to tell him: Don’t worry about anymore, let die!"
"Silly girl, don’t say such things!" Yang Chen’s body stiffened a bit.
"No! I’m not talking nonsense. I want to die but don’t want to because I’m selfish, so I don’t want to die, because I’m selfish, so I’m afraid of the pain and want to die. But do you know that this year the director is already eighty-two? How many eighty-two-year-olds need to take care of a teenage girl, and with no one to support him? Do you know, when you weren’t back, several tis others ca to collect debts, blocking the hospital entrance!"
Yang Chen was stunned; he knew the director was getting older, but he didn’t know he was already eighty-two.
Indeed!
How many eighty-two-year-olds need to earn money to support a teenage girl, bearing such expensive dical expenses?
There were actually debt collectors.
He really couldn’t imagine how the director held on all these years.
"You just returned and got married, yet you still have to be a bodyguard for , I truly owe you all!"
Yang Chen looked at Chen Siyan and found her head lowered, tears falling like broken strings of pearls.
Seeing her like this, Yang Chen felt really confused and didn’t know what to say.
"Brother! I was too selfish, too childish, stubbornly waiting for you to co back. Because I was afraid I wouldn’t co out after the surgery and wouldn’t get to see you again. So, please allow to be selfish once again, I want you to stay with one more day, can you? If so, I won’t have any regrets even if I die!" Chen Siyan lifted her tear-streaked face longingly looking at Yang Chen.
Unable to refuse, Yang Chen said in a deep voice, "Alright!"
Chen Siyan lowered her head again, "Thank you, brother!"
Yang Chen sighed softly, hugged Chen Siyan’s shoulders, and led her to sit down on a long bench.
"Yanyan, do you know how much this woolen coat you are wearing costs?" Yang Chen suddenly asked a question inexplicable to Chen Siyan.
Chen Siyan shook her head. She rarely watched television in the hospital, and seldom connected with the outside, knowing nothing about the prices of these clothing brands.
Yang Chen said lightly, "This is a custom Prada design, costing about twelve thousand Fla Country currency."
"Twelve thousand!" Chen Siyan opened her mouth in surprise, quickly saying, "Brother, I didn’t know this coat was so expensive, really! I will return it to sister-in-law when I go back."
Yang Chen shook his head, "Since she bought you such an expensive coat, it ans the money ans nothing to her."
"But..." Chen Siyan felt uneasy, feeling like the coat was made of bills glued together.
"Prada provides custom services, mainly a luxury brand. Ye Xin probably estimated your size, but it’s still a bit big. We visited Cheng City these days, a fashion country where girls can wear anything they want, expressing any personality they wish. On the streets, girls walk confidently, boldly, flamboyantly, full of vibrancy and confident charm. We also saw the Cheng City Iron Tower, under the night there were many couples holding hands making wishes. We drank so noble rot wine from Louisa’s Château, priced at about fifty thousand Northern Federation currency per bottle."
Chen Siyan didn’t know why Yang Chen was telling her all this but listened carefully and longed for it.
"At the wine party, girls can wear beautiful evening dresses, walk in the hall with wine glasses, attracting boys to approach them. If there’s a ball, boys will invite the girl they like to dance together."
Sparkles of longing glimred in Chen Siyan’s eyes.
"Ye Xin has a mini Cooper, though a bit small for , its handling is really good. A road trip in it would be great. I’ve been to Provence to see a lavender estate, visited the Windmill Country to see tulips, and also saw Rose Valley, and the chrysanthemums were particularly charming. But I haven’t been to so dostic places, I want to visit Tian Nan, I hear there are seas of flowers blooming year-round. I also want to visit along the river, listening to the pattering rain outside the window at night is truly beautiful."
Yang Chen looked at the enraptured Chen Siyan and smiled, "Once you recover, I’ll take you to Tian Nan, alright? I’ll teach you to drive, and you can take with you while I take pictures, capturing the blue sky and the mirrors falling from the sky to earth."
"Okay!" Chen Siyan nodded eagerly.
Yang Chen smiled, "Then I’ll take you to Lancy Country. I know a famous designer whose works are the most striking at Cheng City Fashion Week, I’ll have them design the best-looking outfit for you, and you can do a catwalk at Cheng City Fashion Week, how about that?"
"Oh no!" Chen Siyan blushed, "I don’t want to, they wear so little!"
Yang Chen was stunned, suddenly realizing that the little girl thought Fashion Week was like an underwear modeling show.
He laughed, "It’s not what you think, they wear fashion attire, not underwear."
"But, I’m not as tall as them, nor do I have the charisma," Chen Siyan felt a little insecure, but her shiny black eyes still shimred with longing.
Yang Chen smiled, "Who says you don’t have charisma? You are beautiful and charismatic, I believe once you’re on stage, you’ll surely shake the international fashion world!"
"Mm! Alright! I want to try!" Chen Siyan said excitedly.
Watching Chen Siyan’s excitent, Yang Chen said solemnly, "So, this surgery must be successful, and you need to believe you can do it, okay?"
"Mm!" Chen Siyan nodded earnestly, "Don’t worry brother, I’ll definitely get better, I have to go see the flower sea in Tian Nan, attend the fashion show in Lancy Country!"
