Chapter 452: What is rightfully Shishi’s
Han Xichen ran tests on Xiaoshi and when he was done, he reported to Xiehan. "She is doing well. As long as she takes good care of herself, it will not be long before the wound heals completely."
The man went ahead to prescribe medicines to prevent inflammation, decrease pain and kept rambling on about reasons why she shouldn’t skip taking any pill. She would usually use all sorts of excuses to not take medicine but since it was him telling her about it, she was actually looking forward to it. When he heard her say that he would check on her often and ensure she was taking care of herself, she was even happier.
He was standing close to her and it gave her the urge to stretch out a hand to touch him. Before she could move an inch, he had already left the room to discuss with Xiehan. She frowned and secretly blamed her cousin.
The men did not come back even after a few minutes and she wondered whether he would be back any time soon. Would Xiehan see him off? If he did without letting her see him a last time, she would bite her cousin to death.
She was still thinking about this when the door opened. Her lips formed a smile which quickly disappeared when she realized that the incomer was not Han Xichen but her father, and behind him were her mother and Lanni.
"Shishi, how are you?" Her father rushed to her side and took her hand.
"My baby, are you feeling better?" Ji Meiling was still recovering from the shock of hearing the news that her daughter had been shot. "What happened? Why would anyone shoot you? Was it an enemy of the Ji family?"
"Mum, dad, I’m fine." She looked up with a smile and even tried to sit up to prove that she was not as weak as she appeared.
"Don’t move!" Ji Meiling berated and held her small hand.
"Lanni, you are here to visit me too." Xiaoshi was overjoyed when she noticed the young woman and felt even better.
Lanni walked over and placed the small fruit basket on the table before looking at Xiaoshi. "I don’t know how to thank you."
