Chapter 2238: Chapter 2239: Sleeping Under the Same Big Blanket After a Long Time

Thud!

A middle-aged man fell to the ground, writhing in pain, grimacing and unable to stand up for quite a while.

“Sun Changwei!”

A middle-aged woman ran over and helped her husband up.

“Sun, you dare hit me? Do you believe I can kill you?”

The middle-aged man, once helped up, pointed at Lin Yi’s nose and cursed loudly.

...

“If you dare curse at me, I’ll beat you to death. Don’t believe me? Just try.”

The middle-aged man shivered in fear, the chill emanating from Lin Yi silenced him completely.

“If you want treatment, pay up quickly; otherwise, take your patient and get out.”

The couple looked tense and reluctantly paid 10,000 dollars, after which Li Chuhan arranged surgery for the patient.

Although the surgery was urgent, it wasn’t particularly difficult, and Li Chuhan didn’t do it himself, but had other doctors in the department handle it.

After everything was arranged, the two left the hospital and found a place to have breakfast before Lin Yi drove her back.

“Wait before you go.”

After Lin Yi dropped Li Chuhan at her place, she called out to him as he was about to leave.

“What’s up?”

“I have something for you.”

Li Chuhan went back to her bedroom and then brought out a small box.

“You weren’t in Zhong Hai during Christmas, so this is making up for it.”

Hearing this, Lin Yi remembered that Christmas had indeed passed.

And he hadn’t prepared anything, just muddled through it.

But it turned out alright, it was as if he’d bluffed through successfully.

Lin Yi opened the box, which contained a deep blue tie. It was hard to tell the brand, but the material and craftsmanship were good, definitely not cheap.

This gift was quite in line with Li Chuhan’s character.

She wasn’t one for odd or skewed stuff; if she had really given him a box of hand-folded stars or origami cranes, that would have been strange.

But given the current situation, whatever she gave didn’t much matter.

Just as long as it wasn’t like the first Christmas, gifting him the same belt would suffice.

“I’ve been too busy recently, forgot to prepare a gift for you, sorry.”

“It’s fine,” said Li Chuhan. “I don’t care much about these things, it’s just for the sake of the occasion. Everyone else was buying, so I just picked something up.”

Lin Yi smiled. Li Chuhan’s tenderness and romance never showed in these ways.

“I’ll be heading off then; call me if you need anything.”

Lin Yi took a taxi back to Jiuzhou Pavilion, changed his clothes, took a shower, and then called Ji Qingyan.

“Are you at the office?”

“No, shopping outside.”

“Shopping?”

“It’s almost New Year’s Day, I’m buying some things for Mother Wang; I can’t go back empty-handed.”

Lin Yi smiled knowingly; she always wanted to be the earliest in such matters.

“Great timing, I’m free and can come over.”

“Hurry up. I’ve bought quite a bit; it’s really heavy.”

“Alright.”

After getting the address, Lin Yi took a taxi out.

Since Ji Qingyan had a car, there was no need for him to drive.

About forty minutes later, at the Henglong Plaza Starbucks, Lin Yi met up with Ji Qingyan, who had bought a dozen or so items. Besides these, there was another lot in the car.

“Just celebrating New Year’s Day, no need to buy so much stuff.”

“I haven’t been back for a long time, I definitely need to buy more.” Ji Qingyan said,

“Also, I work in a clothing factory, and I’ve ordered a batch of clothes for the kids to send them together later.”

“True to the form of President Ji, always so thoughtful.”

Lin Yi looked into Ji Qingyan’s pocket, “But what is this thing you bought called ‘Pregnant Mama’? What is that? We just finished dealing with things yesterday, it can’t be showing yet, right?”

Ji Qingyan blushed with embarrassment.

“Don’t talk nonsense.” Ji Qingyan spat, “Ning Yue messaged me a few days ago, suspecting she was pregnant, so I bought her some maternity clothes and cosmetics for pregnant women in advance to take back on New Year’s Day.”

“Pregnant?”

Lin Yi was surprised, his face instantly beaming with a smile, “How did I not know? If I wait a few more months, won’t I become an uncle? No, the medical level in Yang City isn’t good enough, I need to get her to Zhong Hai, the obstetrics and gynecology department at Huashan Hospital is not as good as Union Medical College, but it’s also pretty good, she should give birth here.”

Hmm…

Seeing Lin Yi so animated, Ji Qingyan was quite surprised.

She thought Lin Yi wouldn’t have such a big reaction, but he was unexpectedly thrilled.

To think, Ning Yue is a sister to him without any blood relation, something Ji Qingyan hadn’t considered before.

If…

If one day, I have a child, how happy would he be?

Maybe he really likes children.

Lin Yi took out his phone and called Ning Yue.

Then he scolded her for not telling him about her pregnancy.

Ji Qingyan found it a bit amusing; they say men are boys until they die, and it’s really true.

After scolding Ning Yue, Lin Yi continued shopping with Ji Qingyan until after one in the afternoon before heading back.

And Lin Yi didn’t go anywhere else, he went home with Ji Qingyan.

As usual when they returned, they were warmly welcomed by Song Lan.

Seeing the things Ji Qingyan bought, he remarked,

“Why did you buy just clothes? Buy some supplements or something.”

“Don’t worry about it; I’ve got it all arranged. Someone will deliver it tomorrow.”

“That’s good,” Song Lan said,

“Last year you stayed at home. This year, go to Yang City with Lin Yi, alternating between the two families each year.”

“Oh.”

Ji Qingyan didn’t refuse the idea of going back with Lin Yi for the New Year, which to Lin Yi, seemed like a thawing sign in their relationship, slowly returning to the way things were.

Of course, when they got to the bedroom later that night, Ji Qingyan didn’t make Lin Yi a bed on the floor, making it quite clear that he was to sleep in the bed tonight.

But they didn’t do anything because Ji Qingyan said she felt a little uncomfortable and needed some time.

The next day early morning, as usual, Lin Yi dropped Ji Qingyan off at her office and then drove off.

But before going to the precinct, he stopped by the hospital.

Their conditions had improved significantly, especially Yu Siying and Xiao Bing, who were already mobile.

But Zhao Yunhu still needed rest and couldn’t move yet.

After making a round in the wards, Lin Yi went to Inpatient Department Eight to check on Li Chuhan.

Just reaching the eighth floor, he saw Qiao Xin with a troubled expression, leaning on the nurse’s station, writing something as if she was facing some distressing issue.

“What’s with the sad face, did Detective Conan end?”

“Lin Bro, you’re here!”

Seeing Lin Yi, Qiao Xin’s face brightened.

“You look upset, did something happen?”

“Don’t even mention it. I met a patient yesterday, and after the surgery, I couldn’t contact the family. If we can’t find them, our department will have to bear the cost.”
