Chapter 141 The Most Direct Proof
After breakfast, Su Yu went to fetch the horse carriage, preparing for the journey.
Seeing this scene, the clever and lively Xixi immediately understood that her mother was about to head to town again. She hurried over, staring at Su Yu with eyes full of hope, afraid of being left at home.
Recalling the last trip, Su Yu had indeed been too busy with her patients to take care of young Xixi.
Last time, she had seen sixteen patients in just one day, and her reputation had consequently spread far. This time, there would likely be even more people, making it even harder to attend to Xixi’s needs.
Thinking of this, Su Yu squatted down, her eyes conveying a hint of apology as she gently said to Xixi, "Baby, I really can’t take you with me this time."
Her tone carried an undeniable decisiveness.
Upon hearing this, Xixi’s little face immediately covered in disappointment, and she lowered her head, feeling aggrieved.
Su Yu tenderly stroked her hair, comforting her, "Xixi, be good, and I will bring back your favorite dessert when I return."
In that moment, the delicate warmth between mother and daughter quietly blossomed in the morning light.
It was then that Xixi, like a blooming flower, beamed with the joy of childhood innocence. She suddenly looked up and gave Su Yu a loud and crisp kiss, like the most delightful bird song of spring, making one’s heart tremble.
Jiang Ziling gently held Xixi’s little hand, his tender gaze passing between them as he cautioned Su Yu, "Take care on the road, and remember, we are always here, waiting for your return."
