Love So Sweet

401 Going on a Trip

Zhang Li Xue was in a good mood, knowing that she will be going on a short break with Bai Qi. As Bai Qi headed to the hospital, Zhang Li Xue was busy packing up some necessities for their trip.

Fortunately, it was a short trip and she did not have to pack a lot of stuff.

Seeing that everything was ready, Zhang Li Xue walked out of the room and saw that Bai Xi Xi had returned with her parents.

From the look at it, it seemed that her mother was hanging out at her father’s office and the two of them left together to pick up Bai Xi Xi at her school.

Bai Xi Xi saw her and run over in excitement. “Sister-in-law! You’re going on a trip with my brother tonight?”

Zhang Li Xue looked at the little girl and thought that it would be good if Bai Xi Xi could come along as well. Unfortunately, the little girl will have to attend school.

“Unfortunately, I cannot come with you.” Bai Xi Xi lowered her head and heaved a sigh. “But sister, you have to enjoy yourself, alright?”

Last night, her brother came to talk to her about his trip. According to her brother, her sister-in-law was quite pitiful. Because of her injury, she can’t move around and had to stay at home most of the time.

Her brother planned to take her sister-in-law on a short trip to cheer her up.

.....

Bai Xi Xi heard that it was for her sister-in-law and quickly agreed. She did not mind staying with the others as everyone was treating her well.

“Xi Xi, you don’t mind?”

“Of course, not.”

Zhang Li Xue thought that Bai Xi Xi was too adorable and could not help but hug her tightly.

The little girl was too obedient. After accompanying Bai Xi Xi for a while, Zhang Li Xue thought that it was better to have a daughter. A daughter was more obedient and cute. Moreover, it would be fun to shop for girls.

Zhang Li Xue was unaware that she had inherited this part from her mother. When her mother was pregnant with her, her mother would often shop for a lot of pretty dresses for her.

After a while, Bai Xi Xi went back to her room to do her homework.

Zhang Li Xue was sitting in the living room to watch some television when she saw her father walk in. Their gazes met and her father walked over to her side

“Daddy,” Zhang Li Xue called with the same coquettish voice. She might be a married lady now, but she will still be her father’s little girl.

Zhang Yu Han leaned over to kiss his daughter on top of her head. He gave her a look over and finally, his gaze stopped at her casted leg. “Li Xue, how are you feeling?”

Each time that he recalled the incident, Zhang Yu Han would feel distressed for his daughter. He hoped that he will never have to face something like that again.

“Mmm... I’m doing fine. It’s just that I’m a bit bored staying at home without doing anything.”

Zhang Yu Han laughed. “Well, you injured your leg and could not move around. It’s best if you stay still and recuperate. We don’t want you to suffer from any side effects from that injury.”

A soft sigh escaped her. Zhang Li Xue understood what everyone was worried about, but staying still was something that she was not good at.

“When will be your next check-up at the hospital?” Zhang Yu Han asked.

“Next week.”

Although Zhang Li Xue had a personal doctor who will look after her, she still have to go to the hospital for check-ups.

With her injury, she did not have to frequently visit the hospital. However, to ease her family’s worry, Zhang Li Xue decided to go for a check-up.

Zhang Yu Han pondered over her words for a while. “If the doctor said you are healthy enough, then, I will consider letting you return to work.”

Her eyes lit up. “Really?”

“Mhm...” Zhang Yu Han smiled when he saw his daughter’s cheerful look.

It seemed that she was too bored staying at home that she would rather go to work.

“This time, you don’t have to return to your previous department,” Zhang Yu Han said. “Just come over and stay by my side. I will teach you everything you need to know.”

“Will that be alright?”

“Of course. It’s the same if you stay with me. You will learn the same.”

Since her father had already made his decision, Zhang Li Xue could only agree with this arrangement. Of course, Zhang Li Xue knew that her father wanted to keep his eyes on her. He did not want her to exert herself.

While the father and daughter were talking about the working arrangement, Bai Qi finally returned home. He walked into the living room and found his wife and father-in-law inside.

“Dad.” Bai Qi greeted the elder man politely.

“You’re back.” Zhang Yu Han shifted his gaze to his daughter and spoke, “That’s right, the two of you are going on a trip. When are you departing?”

“We’ll leave after dinner,” Bai Qi answered.

Zhang Yu Han nodded. “It’s not easy for you to have a break. Go and have fun.” He exchanged a few words with his daughter before leaving the couple alone.

Once his father-in-law had left, Bai Qi walked over to his wife and kissed her forehead. “Have you packed up?”

Zhang Li Xue nodded. “I helped you to pack up as well. You go and check if I missed anything.”

Bai Qi stood behind her wheelchair and pushed his wife back to their room.

As the door was closed behind them, Zhang Li Xue turned to her husband again and stared at him with a pair of bright eyes. “Hubby, you still haven’t told me where we are going. The beach?”

Bai Qi chuckled. “You want to go to the beach?”

Zhang Li Xue nodded.

“But you can’t play in the water with your injury.” Bai Qi saw the disappointed look on his wife’s face and spoke again, “Let’s go when you have recovered. We can take Xi Xi with us as well.”

Zhang Li Xue was in a good mood upon hearing his answer.

“This time, I’ll take you to play somewhere else, alright?”
