Incurable Chapter 4 Part 2

After eating, Liu Qianxiu returned to the Nanfeng apartment.

Nanfeng Apartment is a high-end residential area, only 15 minutes drive from Tang’er Hospital. When Liu Qianxiu returned, it was only nine o’clock, and the tall apartment building stood in the dark, with thousands of lights on.

After entering the password, Liu Qianxiu opened the door, and the floor lamp was on, sprinkling a thin layer of light on the room, mixed with the fragrance of agarwood, and the house was empty and cold.

It was quiet in the living room. Liu Qianxiu took a look before moving into the bedroom.

After showering and changing clothes, he returned to the living room. Liu Qianxiu’s living room is empty, without any furnishings, with only one wall with murals painted. The floor had covered with cotton and linen carpets. Also on one side is a short table and a table lamp. There were a few books on the table and an incense burner. The agarwood in the incense burner had burned out, and Liu Qianxiu lighted another one.

The white mist of agarwood curled up with the sparks, and the fragrance in the room became more intense. Liu Qianxiu sat cross-legged, turned on the lamp, took a book, and flipped through it.

He had just turned a page, and there was a rustling sound from the balcony at the end of the living room. His eyes narrowed, and the corners of his lips hooked.

After a while, his folded leg was trampled on by something soft, and then the weight increased, and a hot lump directly fell on his leg.

Liu Qianxiu’s gaze retracted from the book, and he glanced down. On his legs, there was a lump of furry pitch black. The moment he looked down, the thing moved, and a pair of pale golden eyes met his eyes.

“Meow~” It opened its mouth and called.

This lump is a black cat with light golden pupils.

Liu Qianxiu’s body did not move, but his eyebrows and eyes gradually softened. Xuanmao’s soft body touched him, reminding him of another “cat” he had seen today.

“I didn’t catch you, but you came by yourself.” The man touched it lightly, raised his eyes, and continued reading.

Li Nan’s phone call woke Mu Wan up. The hangover made her suffer from a splitting headache. She had a drink yesterday, went out to sober up, and ran into Liu Qianxiu, and she couldn’t remember what happened later. Li Nan started to speak ill and asked why she left without telling Mi Yu. After hearing that she was in the hospital, she said nothing more and hung up.

The cartwheel came from outside the ward, and then the door opened, and the little nurse wearing a nurse’s hat walked in with the medicine and said: “Take care of the wound.”

Mu Wan unbuttoned and took off the hospital gown, exposing the wound. The little nurse came over and gave her the medicine directly. Mu Wan was still a little confused when she woke up. The sudden pain made her whole body tight, groaned, and she woke up instantly.

“Why didn’t you think it hurt when you drank yesterday? Now that the wound is inflamed, you must stay in the hospital for another day.” The little nurse with a cold face.

She sneaked out yesterday and was discovered by Liu Qianxiu, and the nurses in the ward had to criticize her. Mu Wan smiled and apologized, and the little nurse looked better.

“Did doctor Liu send me back yesterday?” Mu Wan asked.

“That’s right.” The little nurse recalled the scene last night and looked at Mu Wan with admiration: “You are also a strange person. There are so many people chasing doctor Liu. It is the first time I saw someone hanging on him, and he didn’t let you go.”

Mu Wan said: “...”

“Where is doctor Liu?” Mu Wan asked.

“Oh, he is on vacation and won’t be back until next Monday.” said the little nurse.

When Liu Qianxiu sent Mu Wan back, Lin Wei naturally had some speculation, but Mu Wan was still uninterested. Lin Wei looked at her and said: “Liu Daochang sent you back.”

“It’s brought back. I am hospitalized but sneaking out to drink. In case something happens, even if the hospital is not responsible, Liu Daochang will be affected.” Mu Wan packed up her things and corrected Lin Wei. She was discharged from the hospital today. Lin Wei, who had been released earlier than her, came to pick her up.

Lin Wei let out a cry of “Oh.”

“But it did cause trouble for him. When I have time, I will invite him to dinner.” Mu Wan finished speaking, carrying the bag up, and said: “Let’s go.”

The two walked up to Lin Wei’s Cadillac, one after another. Lin Wei was petite and sweet-looking, but she liked this big SUV. Lin Wei is a rich second generation. Her parents were in the real estate business in Jingcheng. After graduating from college, her parents bought her a villa in Xiacheng. Lin Wei renovated it into a two-story studio, one floor for the office and the other for living quarters.

Before Lin Wei started the car, Mu Wan said, “Wait a minute.”

Lin Wei stopped, and Mu Wan leaned over and glanced at the car’s bottom, which was empty. She looked up and said, “It’s okay.”

“Looking for a cat? That calico cat was hit and killed by a car on the main road this morning.” When Mu Wan looked up, a cleaning lady holding a broom told Mu Wan in Xiacheng dialect.

Mu Wan felt cold, thinking of a plump calico cat held by the man. Although it was a bit dirty, it looked pretty. It was raining that day, and it got under her car because of the cold, but within a few days, it died.

Lin Wei looked over from the car and asked Mu Wan, “What’s dead?”

The aunt initially wanted to leave, but hearing her question, she turned her head and pointed to the bushes in the corner, and she said, “Oh, it has a litter of kittens.”

Mu Wan’s eyes moved, thinking of the round belly of the calico cat.

Tang’er Hospital is a private hospital. All the people who come to see doctors are rich. The hospital bushes were trimmed neatly. In front of the bushes, a Maserati and a Bentley were parked.

Mu Wan leaned over and bent over between the two cars. After a while, she straightened and turned around. Lin Wei saw the three baby kittens in her arms. The baby cats hadn’t opened their eyes, but the small ball moved in Mu Wan’s embrace.

No one can resist fluffy, and Lin Wei is no exception. She looked at the baby kitten worriedly: “They are so small. What should we do?”

“Take it home.” The little dumpling moved back and forth in her hand. Opened her mouth, then it said, “Meow.” Mu Wan’s heart can not say what it feels.

Lin Wei let out a surprised “Ah.”

Mu Wan looked up and said: “Haven’t you always wanted me to have a cat?”

She did say this, looking at the baby kitten in Mu Wan’s hand. Lin Wei was worried: “Can you take care of them?”

The kitten rubbed her hand softly. Mu Wan touched it gently with her thumb and said, “I will try.”

The author has something to say: 
Liu Daochang: I heard that you took my cat?
Mu Wan: Then you come to me and take it back~
