Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 140 A Miserable Battlefield

Yan Hua refuses Lang Ruoxian’s request.

“Don’t mess up for you still sit in a wheelchair.”

No matter how hard Lang Ruoxian strives for it, his efforts are useless. Yan Hua simply calls the doctor. Under Lang Ruoxian’s gloomy eyes, the doctor resists the pressure and says that he shouldn’t be discharged from the hospital.

“Uncle, you must take good care of yourself!” Gungun pats Lang Ruoxian on the shoulder and says, “If you listen to Mommy’s words, I will come and play with you on Saturday.”

The next day, Yan Hua doesn’t come. Shu Sheng gets up in the morning and sees Lang Ruoxian waiting in the wheelchair with his coat on.

“Young Master, Miss Yan told you not to...” Shu Sheng swallows his unfinished words. How can it be possible for Lang Ruoxian to listen to advice.

Xiaojiu and Gungun walk into the kindergarten hand in hand. “See? I am in Rose Class. If anyone bullies you, come to me! I will help you beat him.”

“OK!” Gungun bites his fingers. He won’t think himself not manly at all if he is protected by Xiaojiu who is just a bit older than him.

Fei Ying takes Xiaojiu to her own class to check in, and Gungun just follows.

“Gungun!” Yan Hua pulls him. “You are in this classroom.”

Gungun is stunned. Why isn’t he with Xiaojiu?

“I want to be with Xiaojiu.”

“Didn’t you understand what Xiaojiu said just now?” Yan Hua sighs, “Xiaojiu is in a middle class, while you are in a junior class. Look! Your class is called Sunflower Junior Class.”

Gungun holds his small face and shakes his head. “I want to be with Xiaojiu.”

He has been looking forward to going to kindergarten so that he can continue to play with Xiaojiu. Now he is suddenly told that he won’t be with Xiaojiu. Gungun feels that even pudding, his favorite, cannot make up for his loss.

“Gungun, be a good boy. You and Xiaojiu are not in the same class, so you have to go here.” Yan Hua squats down and whispers to him. The teacher nearby is very amiable and tries to pull Gungun. But Gungun avoids her to run outside to.

Looking up to see a person, he becomes happy in an instant.

“Uncle!” He throws himself into Lang Ruoxian’s arms.

Behind Lang Ruoxian is Fei Shan with black sunglasses. From his firmly closed lips, people will know that he is not in a good mood.

“Why are you here?” Yan Hua frowns and asks, “Aren’t you not allowed to come here?”

“I can’t miss such an important thing as sending Gungun to the kindergarten for the first time.” Lang Ruoxian smiles. “I’ve spoken to the doctor and he agreed me to come.”

Yan Hua glances at Shu Sheng who is pushing the wheelchair for Lang Ruoxian. But Shu Sheng looks down at the ground as if there is some money below.

“Uncle, Gungun doesn’t want to go to kindergarten. Please take Gungun to the hospital! Gungun will play with you every day!” Cute voice matches with cute little face, which almost makes Lang Ruoxian nod, but he hears Yan Hua snort.

He immediately changes into a poker face. “Gungun, look at all these children. Aren’t they all playing in the kindergarten? Do you want to be different from everyone else? If you don’t go to kindergarten, you can’t go to primary school, and you can’t go to any school in the future.”

“But Gungun wants to be with Xiaojiu!” Gungun feels himself wronged, tears pattering down. “Why not let Gungun and Xiaojiu be together?”

Lang Ruoxian glances at the kindergarten principal who accompanies aside with a smiling face. Of course, the principal knows who he is. As long as they are willing to send Gungun to attend kindergarten here, Gungun can have classes in the way he likes, let alone having classes with Xiaojiu together. Lang Ruoxian is about to speak when he hears a stern voice.

“Gungun, you can’t be like this.” Yan Hua bends down and says, “When Xiaojiu goes to primary school in the future, she will be in the same school as Mingxi, but they will be in different classes.”

“Just like you are now. If you don’t go to kindergarten today, when Xiaojiu goes to primary school with Mingxi, you can’t go, either. You have to finish kindergarten yourself.”

Yan Hua wipes tears for him. “Would you like to come to kindergarten alone later, or would you like to come with Xiaojiu now? You can play with Xiaojiu together in the yard after class.”

Gungun lowers his little head and says nothing. Lang Ruoxian touches him and says, “Gungun is a boy, so you will protect Mommy the future, right?”

“Why should I protect Mommy?” Gungun is stunned, “Mommy should be protected by Dad, shouldn’t she?”

Everyone is speechless.

“Then Gungun can protect Xiaojiu!” Fei Shan who hates to be neglected, finally finds a chance to speak.

It is unexpected that Gungun is even more frightened. “Why should I protect Xiaojiu? Brother Mingxi said that he would protect her. All I have to do is to eat pudding.”

Everyone is speechless again.

Yan Hua holds one hand to her forehead, feeling that Gungun’s education has completely failed.

“Well, Gungun doesn’t need protect anyone else. You just protect yourself.” But Lang Ruoxian still spoils him and says, “I will protect your mom.”

Gungun bites his fingertip and asks, “Uncle, can you also protect Gungun?”

“... Okay.” Even Lang Ruoxian twitches the corner of his mouth. He doesn’t want to continue this topic anymore. “Is Gungun willing to go to kindergarten now?”

Gungun crawls down from him and runs to Yan Hua. “Mommy, remember to pick me up earlier!”

Yan Hua breathes a sigh of relief. She made some inquiry earlier and knew that most of the children would cry and were unwilling to enter the kindergarten. Before she comes, she has thought about what to do if Gungun is like that. Fortunately...

“Well!” She kisses her son. “Mommy must be the first to pick you up.”

Gungun follows the teacher into the classroom, Yan Hua feels particularly distressed when seeing him almost cry. Yet Lang Ruoxian beside her says.

“He doesn’t have to go to kindergarten now. Or we just take Gungun back and let him go to kindergarten next year.”

Hearing him say so, Yan Hua becomes more and more determined instead. “No, he can do it if other children can.”

“Let’s go.” Fei Shan says, “If you stay here, he will always want to come out.”

Yan Hua nods and glances at Lang Ruoxian. “You should go back to the hospital as soon as possible.”

“Won’t you accompany me back?” Lang Ruoxian stares at her straight. Yan Hua doesn’t doubt at all that if she says no, this guy can jump up immediately.

She has to say to Fei Shan, “You and Fei Ying go home, while I will go directly to the hospital.”

Fei Shan looks at Lang Ruoxian coolly. “Mr. Lang, don’t run around if you are not well. Beware that you will never get out of sickbed.”

“It doesn’t matter. Even if I can’t get out of sickbed, Hua will take care of me.” As if he were only six years old, Lang Ruoxian proudly glances at Fei Shan and says childishly, “Personal care.”

Fei Shan smiles and says childishly as if he were only five years old, “Well, I will also be her personal driver every day. Hua, in order to celebrate Gungun starting going to a nursery for the first day today, let’s go out to have dinner in the evening!”

Fei Ying standing by rolls her eyes and wants to complain why he didn’t say to celebrate when his niece entered the nursery.

“Let’s leave quickly!” Shu Sheng feels that this place is going to be a miserable battlefield for the two men. He says quickly, “There is another inspection later, isn’t it?”

They leave hurriedly just as birds and animals scatter wildly. The principal wipes the sweat, feeling fortunate that they came late, otherwise others would think their kindergarten is not good when seeing this scene...

“Gungun won’t get used to it soon. You will have to comfort him more these two days.” As the car slowly drives out of the kindergarten, Lang Ruoxian says, “If he still cries, call me.”

Yan Hua nods. Probably men really have the so-called friendship regardless of age, so just like just now, Lang Ruoxian and Gungun could magically communicate, but...

“You have spoiled him too much.” Yan Hua is somewhat dissatisfied. “If I didn’t play the role of bad-cop, you wouldn’t have any principles for him at all.”

Lang Ruoxian doesn’t say a word. If he doesn’t spoil Gungun, what if Gungun won’t recognize him as dad later...

“I will pay attention to that.” Having thought about it, Lang Ruoxian makes known his position. “Besides, aren’t you still there?”

He goes back to the hospital to have a check-up and makes sure everything is normal. When Lang Ruoxian finds that his action of running out of the hospital today hasn’t affected his injury, he can stay in sickbed no longer.

“I want to be discharged.”

The doctor’s face turns white. “Mr. Lang, Old Master specially made a phone call and told me that you must be alive and kicking before you can be discharged from the hospital. You... Please don’t give us a hard time.”

“I have already been fine, of course I can be discharged.” Lang Ruoxian says flatly, “You just tell my grandpa that I am fine.”

The doctor looks at Yan Hua and hopes she can rescue them.

“No way.” Yan Hua smiles and asks them to go out, then looks at Lang Ruoxian harshly. “Your injury will soon be healed. What if your injury becomes serious again if you are discharged from the hospital now?”

“I know my own body. It won’t.” Lang Ruoxian doesn’t talk to her like just now. His voice is very gentle. “At most, I won’t go to the company but stay at home. And I won’t walk around and let Shu Sheng take care of me at home.”

Yan Hua can’t excel him in discussing this matter and simply ignores him. Later, she doesn’t hear Lang Ruoxian mention it again, so she thinks that he gives up this thought. A few days later, when she goes to pick up Gungun, the kindergarten teacher tells her.

“Miss Yan, Gungun has beaten another child today. Could you please wait a moment?”

Yan Hua looks surprisedly at her son, who bows his head and doesn’t dare to say a word. “Teacher, can I ask why?”

“In fact, it is not Gungun’s fault, either.” The teacher tells her the matter.

A child said that Gungun had no father, so Gungun was angry and pushed the child. As a result, the child hit a chair when he fell down and bruised his knees.

After a while, the parent of the child comes and the teacher says it again, the parent is very reasonable. After all, this is a kindergarten for rich families. The children who come here all have good family conditions, so naturally their parents are well-mannered.

“Gungun, say goodbye to your teacher!” Yan Hua pulls Gungun away after the child and parent leaving.

Fei Shan waits in the car and is taken aback when he sees Gungun start crying as soon as he gets into the car.

“What happened?”

Yan Hua shakes her head and says nothing. Fei Shan doesn’t dare to ask. On the halfway, Gungun is probably tired because of crying. But when he sees Yan Hua not coax him, he sobs and hugs Yan Hua’s arm.

“Mommy, did Gungun do wrong?”

Yan Hua looks at him. “Did you think you were right?”

Gungun shakes his head but then nods. “What he said was wrong, but I should not push him...”

“Mmm!” Yan Hua just picks him up to let him sit on her thighs. “Beating other child was wrong. Of course, that child also had some mistake.”

“He said Gungun didn’t have dad...” Gungun cries again. “They all have their own dad, but only Gungun doesn’t have dad.”

Yan Hua’s heart aches. She hugs him tightly. “Gungun has dad. Don’t you know that he has gone to a place very far away?”

“Then will you let him come back?” Gungun suddenly loudly says, “Let him come back to see Gungun. Gungun really misses him. Woo...”
