Chapter 2 Oh my god, my daughter's hair is bubbling with excitement!

Hospital.

"Dongzi, you don't need to stay here. There's nothing much going on in my department tonight, so I can stay here. You go and check on your wife," Qiao Xiaoyun said as she entered the ward.

She is Qiao Changdong's fourth older sister and a doctor at the county hospital.

"No need, I'll wait for her to wake up."

Qiao Changdong sat on the hospital bed, holding his daughter in one arm and gently stroking the blood-streaked gauze on her head with the other. Perhaps he had been staying up too long, for his eyes were somewhat bloodshot.

“You don’t need to hold her like that. She’ll be more comfortable lying down if you put her down,” Qiao Xiaoyun said.

"It's okay, she wants me to hold her, she can't be without me, she sleeps more soundly when I hold her." Qiao Changdong shook his head, and then wrapped the blanket around Qiao Qiao even tighter.

Although it's only early autumn, the temperature difference between day and night is significant. I was in such a rush to get to the hospital that I didn't have time to bring any daily necessities, so I can only use the hospital's blankets for now.

However, Qiao Changdong was still somewhat disgusted by these blankets that had been used by many people. After wrapping Qiao Qiao up tightly, he patted her back to make sure she wouldn't wake up.

Then she turned to Qiao Xiaoyun and said, "Fourth Sister, when you get home later, bring back the clothes that Guabao left with you. She's always been very clean, and if she wakes up and sees herself wearing these dirty clothes, she'll definitely make a fuss."

Qiao Xiaoyun's eye twitched slightly, but knowing that her younger brother always cherished his niece, she wasn't surprised.

She sat down on the stool next to the hospital bed and poured herself a glass of water.

She glanced at Qiao Changdong, then at her niece in his arms, who, even with her eyes closed and her forehead bandaged, was as beautiful as a porcelain doll, and sighed.

She asked, "Changdong, what have you thought about what I told you last time?"

Qiao Xiaoyun was referring to the matter she had mentioned before, about giving Qiao Qiao to their eldest brother, Qiao Changqing, for adoption.

Their eldest brother, Qiao Changqing, has been married for ten years. Due to injuries sustained during his early military service, he has difficulty conceiving and remains childless.

Qiao Changdong's wife, Chen Yulian, couldn't tolerate Qiao Qiao, his stepdaughter, and their elder brother, Qiao Changqing, had no children, so Qiao Xiaoyun came up with this idea.

This way, Qiao Changdong wouldn't be torn between Qiao Qiao and Chen Yulian, and his elder brother's family could also have a happy ending.

“She’s right here beside me, not going anywhere.” Qiao Changdong’s eyes were icy.

"I knew this would happen." Qiao Xiaoyun knew that Qiao Changdong cherished Qiao Qiao like the apple of his eye, so she wasn't surprised to hear this.

"What exactly happened today? When I came in, I heard Chen Xiu'e say that Qiaoqiao pushed Chen Yulian, causing her to have a miscarriage?"

Qiao Changdong's face immediately darkened: "Don't listen to her nonsense. Ask her again when Qiaoqiao wakes up."

Anyway, he wouldn't believe what Chen Yulian said until Qiao Qiao woke up.

Putting aside whether it's easy for a child under three to push an adult down, even if it were possible, his daughter wouldn't do that.

The incident happened suddenly in the afternoon, and Qiao Qiao fainted again. He didn't know the specifics of what happened and would have to wait until Qiao Qiao woke up to find out.

He didn't understand either, since Mingming wasn't pretty or smart before marriage.

But how could Chen Yulian, who was at least hardworking and generous and said she would wholeheartedly accept Qiao Qiao, become a completely different person after marriage, selfish, vain, stingy, mean, and particularly suspicious?

Especially after becoming pregnant, she never pretended to dislike Qiao Qiao in front of anyone.

She always suspected that a three-year-old child would harm her, and even threatened him several times to send Qiao Qiao away.

Seeing that his expression was not good, Qiao Xiaoyun did not ask any more questions. Just as she was about to get up, a nurse pushed a small cart in.

"Xiaoyun, you're here too."

Upon seeing Qiao Xiaoyun, the nurse greeted him with a smile, then looked at Qiao Changdong and said, "Brother Qiao, why are you still holding him? Put him on the bed."

"Let him hold you, otherwise I'm afraid some beggar in our hospital might kidnap him!" Qiao Xiaoyun scolded playfully.

"I'll hold her to keep her warm. Is this an anti-inflammatory injection? How long will it take?" Qiao Changdong ignored Qiao Xiaoyun's teasing, watched the nurse prepare the anti-inflammatory solution, and then turned around to pick up the needle.

He patted Qiao Qiao's back while frowning and lowering his voice, saying, "Nurse, my daughter is afraid of pain, please be gentle."

"Then let Sister Xiaoyun do it. In the hospital, if she's second to none, no one dares to claim to be first." The nurse was amused.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaoyun waved her hand dismissively, saying irritably, "I wouldn't dare. If I hurt his daughter, he'd definitely disown me as his sister."

The nurse burst out laughing again.

After skillfully inserting the needle, and seeing Qiao Changdong's exaggerated facial expression of frowning because of his daughter's acupuncture, she sighed, "Sister Xiaoyun, I've worked here for several years, and this is the first time I've seen Brother Qiao dote on his daughter like this."

"When Dr. Luo came to clean the wound earlier, it might have hurt a bit, and the little girl whimpered a couple of times. Brother Qiao almost had to carry Dr. Luo out of there."

The nurse now recalls how Dr. Luo's cleaning of the wound caused the unconscious girl to hum a little.

Qiao Changdong, who was standing guard nearby, couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of him instantly lifting Dr. Luo off the ground by her armpits.

"That's how he is, a spineless doting father!" Qiao Xiaoyun shook her head. She was used to her younger brother spoiling his daughter without any limits.

"But your little niece is really beautiful. I've seen so many children, but this is the first time I've seen one so beautiful. She's as pretty as a porcelain doll. If I had a daughter like that, I would cherish her like a treasure."

"Just be careful when you get back, pay attention to your diet, and don't let the wound on your forehead leave a scar."
