Chapter 1382: Chapter 1382: Feng Jin’s Passing (4)
Even though they just t yesterday, as a father, how could he not constantly think of his son? Especially when his son doesn’t want to stay by his side, naturally, he worries even more.
Moreover, Xiu Xi had never called him first before; this was the first ti, so how could he not be delighted?
However, given the sad atmosphere at the scene, his joy remained inside, not showing outwardly.
Holding his old-fashioned mobile phone, he softly said sothing to Duan Sishu. After she nodded in response, he turned and went outside to take the call.
Standing in a secluded corner, he couldn’t help but smile as he asked, “How co you have ti to call , kid? Missing your dad?”
“Let’s et,” Xiu Xi said, ignoring his tease.
“et?” Now Duan Qianyang was truly surprised: “Didn’t we just et the day before yesterday?”
“Let’s et, there’s sothing important.”
Listening to Xiu Xi’s tone, which didn’t seem like a joke, Duan Qianyang was silent for a mont. Despite being busy at the mont, his son was more important.
He nodded and said, “Alright, I’ve got so matters to handle here, probably in two hours, I’ll have soone pick you up, and we’ll have dinner together.” Then he added, “By the way, has Jiaojiao arrived? Rember to bring her along.”
Without even a response, Xiu Xi hung up the phone.
Looking at the suddenly disconnected call, Duan Qianyang smiled and cursed “brat” before composing himself and heading back to the hospital.
After delegating tasks he originally planned to handle himself to his subordinates, he prepared to go back ho to the Duan Family briefly, take a bath, and change clothes before eting Xiu Xi.
After all, having stayed at the hospital for a while, although he’s not superstitious, he still didn’t want to et his son wearing the sa outfit.
He encountered Duan Xin coming from another direction as he walked out of the hospital doors.
Seeing Duan Qianyang rushing out, Duan Xin hurriedly approached and asked, “Uncle, are you heading back?”
Upon seeing Duan Qianyang nod affirmatively, Duan Xin imdiately said, “Then I’ll go back with you.”
It was truly too oppressive here, especially after he just saw that cousin of his earlier this year. She appeared small, yet the look she cast at him made him uncomfortable, feeling eerily cold, as if every hair on his body was standing; he really couldn’t stay in this hospital any longer.
Duan Qianyang glanced at him, perhaps thinking of sothing, and said, “Your cousin’s in Beidu, do you want to go et him with ?”
“Cousin?” Duan Xin was stunned for a mont, then a face imdiately appeared in his mind. He grew interested, smiling and nodding: “Sure, I’ll go with you.”
The two of them returned to the Duan Family’s house. Although Duan Xin wasn’t as obsessed with cleanliness as his father, having been to the hospital and having seen the deceased, he still went to his room to take a shower first. When he ca out, Duan Qianyang was still not out, so he lay back on the couch waiting.
“Weren’t you at the hospital?” The old master Duan was pushed out from another side by a servant and asked Duan Xin.
Because he had a stroke a few years ago and his mouth was sowhat crooked, his voice was also a bit unclear; if you don’t listen carefully, you might not hear clearly.
“Ah, I ca back with Uncle. Uncle said he’d take to et my cousin, so I’m waiting for him to co down,” Duan Xin replied, sitting up straight to avoid getting reprimanded again by his strict grandfather for improper posture.
Cousin?
The old master Duan’s eyes flickered.
