Chapter 1196: My Little Sister Cares About Me

Ye Wanting didn’t stay long before coming down.

She told Yaen Chi that she saw the caregiver and even chatted with him.

Wu Xiao wouldn’t let her take care of him; he would stay in the hospital for two days before returning to school.

Ye Wanting didn’t insist on taking care of him but planned to visit these two days and bring some fruit and bread.

She also invited Wu Xiao, saying she’d make a special meal to thank him once he’s better.

Yaen Chi listened absent-mindedly; his expression was unreadable.

He drove Ye Wanting back to school and gave her some reminders, but when she was about to speak, his phone rang.

Yaen Chi glanced at it but didn’t answer.

Instead, he looked at Ye Wanting, who was leaning against his car window.

“What did you want to say just now?”

She had forgotten what she was about to say, noticing his phone pressed against his leg; the screen’s light spilled out, casting a faint glow on his slender hand.

“Drive safely, okay?

Text me when you get home.”

Yaen Chi chuckled with his lips pressed together, “You want me to report my whereabouts to you?”

“Yes!”

He nodded, “Okay, I’ll remember.”

He waved his hand, “Go back, and speak sweetly to your dormitory lady so she lets you in.”

“I’m familiar with her; she leaves the door open for me every night.

I’m going back now, Brother Chi, you should head back too.”

Yaen Chi acknowledged with a hum and watched her leave.

Once she was out of sight, his phone stopped buzzing.

Yaen Chi buckled his seatbelt, steering with one hand, and after leaving the one-way street, he turned his phone over and called back.

“What’s up now?”

This time, his tone was much better, even laced with laughter.

Staff Officer Li swallowed his words and curiously asked, “Why so happy, did your little sister talk to you?”

“Heh…”

Yaen Chi let out a long, low chuckle, “The little sister has me on her mind.”

“Can you stop being disgusting, you 28-year-old middle-aged man!”

Yaen Chi clicked his tongue, “Go on, what’s up with you calling me at night again?”

“Right!

Why did I call you again?

It’s all your fault for leading me off track!”

Yaen Chi: “…”

Knowing better than to interrupt, he waited for the old officer to recall, “Oh, right, I wanted to ask if Bo Yanching’s father’s first seven days after death were tomorrow?”

“Why are you asking this?”

“Can’t I just ask?

Most of Bo Family is unexciting, but Yanqing is a kid I’ve watched grow up.

If it weren’t for the influence of people like him, how else could you have turned out looking halfway decent?

What’s wrong with me asking about his father’s matter?”

Yaen Chi habitually ignored the elder man’s strained choice of words that paradoxically turned into comical narration whenever he spoke.

He simply said, “During the funeral, the Bo Family didn’t even invite you, why worry about his seven days; does it concern you in any way?”

“…” Staff Officer Li took a deep breath, possibly gearing up to scold but seemingly forgot in the heat of the moment, swallowing back the words.

“Are you going?”

“I’m going; I’ll be there with my well-mannered Brother Yan.”

Yaen Chi deliberately added, “He invited me.”

Staff Officer Li was quite irritated, but this call was purely because he was undecided and wanted to consult Yaen Chi.

Speaking of the Li Family and Bo Family, there were some ties, but he wasn’t the one maintaining the relationship.

Thinking that someone in the Bo Family died, and it was Bo Yanching’s dad, he felt he should show some gesture, but didn’t know how.
