Chapter 2126 - 2062: Preparing for Surgery

Meng Xinian’s gaze was too intense, with a hint of indifference. Of course, he had tenderness, but his tenderness was reserved only for Chiang Xiao, invisible to others.

So, when she saw Meng Xinian, she could only admire him at most.

But Ah Liu was really the kind of man that could be considered a feast for the eyes—elegant, gentle, graceful, like a noble gentleman from ancient times.

She couldn’t help but be momentarily dazzled by his smile.

But she quickly regained her composure.

After all, he was her best friend’s father, and even though their ages weren’t far apart, there was still a generational difference.

"So early?"

Ah Liu reached out and touched Chiang Xiao’s head, "Why didn’t you wake me up?"

"I wanted to let Daddy sleep a bit more."

"You should have woken me up; we should talk more."

Hearing this, Chiang Xiao was visibly displeased.

What kind of talk is that?

Why do we have to talk more now?

As if after the surgery there’d be no chance to talk again.

"Let’s wait until after the surgery to chat properly; then I’ll talk so much that you’ll find it annoying." Chiang Xiao wrapped her arm around his.

Ah Liu chuckled softly.

"Alright, you can tell me everything from when you were born until now, every little detail. Tell me who bullied you, and I’ll write it down and settle accounts with them."

Upon hearing this, Jin Lei and Wang Yi couldn’t help but laugh.

They all thought he was really wonderful, and it was clear he genuinely cared deeply for Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao pouted and said, "No need for that; anyone who bullied me, I’ve already bullied back. Daddy, your daughter isn’t one to be taken advantage of. Just yesterday, I cut a grumpy old lady’s hair and made her shout in anger."

"Hmm? Why? What happened?" Ah Liu was surprised.

Chiang Xiao tilted her head and looked at him, "I’m not telling you now; if you want to know, you’ll have to wait until you’re awake after the surgery."

Ah Liu sighed lightly and pinched her cheek, "Alright, I understand. Then tell me all about it after I wake up from surgery."

They barely exchanged a few words before a nurse arrived to wheel him away for pre-surgery preparations.

As Ah Liu was about to lie on the stretcher, Chiang Xiao already took out a small bottle of Potion, "Daddy, drink this."

"What’s this? You can’t consume anything not approved by the doctor," a nurse reached for it.

Chiang Xiao shifted her hand deftly, avoiding her.

"It’s just water," she handed the bottle to Ah Liu, "Daddy, drink it."

"Alright."

No matter what it was, as long as it was given by Chiang Xiao, Ah Liu would drink it.

The moment the water entered his mouth, it tasted extraordinarily sweet, and after drinking, his body felt warm and comfortable.

Ah Liu handed the bottle back to Chiang Xiao.

"Daddy is going now, wait for Daddy to return."

"I’ll be waiting outside the whole time, Daddy."

"Alright." Ah Liu reached out and tightly clasped her hand. "Daughter, Daddy loves you."

After saying that, he let go and was pushed away by the nurse.

Chiang Xiao’s eyes heated up, and she immediately followed.

Whatever happened today, she would stay by his side.

Wang Yi and Jin Lei exchanged a glance and they followed too.
