There were big characters on the screen that was on the roof, which was the advertising for a beauty brand.

Very generous.

“How many operations did you do today?”

She asked softly.

“Three operations.”

Ji Qingying nodded and softly asked, “Are you tired?”

“I am still okay.”

Fu Yanzhi put his hands in his pockets and looked directly at the same place on the other side of the lake.

Inexplicably, both sides of the balcony fell silent.

Ji Qingying was standing facing the wind in her nightdress, her hair being blown tortuously, and fluttering in front of her face from time to time, blocking her vision.

She got it down and pinned it behind her ears, which made her feel more comfortable.

” ”

“Then, shouldn’t you go and rest?”

She turned her head and looked at the man standing on the other side

Fu Yanzhi said “Um” and looked at her bright face, “What is the matter?”

“What?”

Ji Qingying didn’t react for a while.

Fu Yanzhi rarely repeated his words with such patience, “You said you can’t sleep, what is the matter?”

Ji Qingying was stunned for a moment, and said, “I suddenly thought of something unhappy.”

Fu Yanzhi nodded as if indicating for her to continue.

Just when Ji Qingying thought the conversation was about to end, she heard his voice again, “Since it makes you feel unhappy, why bother thinking about it?”

She was slightly startled.

Fu Yanzhi turned to look at her.

In the darkness of the night, the outlines of his brows and eyes were blurred, giving him a mysterious feel.

” ”

But every word he uttered resounded against her heart strongly.

Ji Qingying was silent for a while, but suddenly asked, “Because it is not a happy thing, there’s no need to bother thinking about it?”

“Yes.”

Ji Qingying laughed, she felt as if she had forgotten about something very obvious and wondered why it had only clicked in her mind now.

“Fu Yanzhi.”

He lowered his head to gaze at her.

Ji Qingying looked up at him with a bright smile.

“I understand what you mean.”

Fu Yanzhi nodded.

But in the next second, she posed a question again, “But I have already thought about it tonight, what do you think I should do?”

What she meant by that was——

I still can’t fall asleep.

Fu Yanzhi was speechless for a while.

He stared at the person who was trying to take advantage of him even at this time, and felt a sense of helplessness.

“Then what do you want?”

He knew he was allowing her to take advantage of him with these words but still ignored logic..

Ji Qingying raised her eyebrows, and her eyes rolled as she pondered and said finally, “Or, you can sing me a lullaby.”

Fu Yanzhi: “…”

She solemnly continued,: “When I was a child and couldn’t sleep, my grandmother would sing a lullaby to me.”

“…”

He was silent for a moment, and said without holding anything back,, “I am not your grandmother.”

Ji Qingying retorted shamelessly, “I know.”

Her eyes narrowed, “You are still unwilling to become like me.”

Realising what she had just said out loud, Ji Qingying couldn’t help but laugh.

“Just kidding.”

She put her hands on the railing and her eyes squinted into half as she said, “You go wash up and rest.
I will go to bed when I feel sleepy enough.”

Fu Yanzhi responded lightly.

After a while, the light on the balcony next door went out.

Ji Qingying didn’t think about it too much.

The wind kept blowing as she was looking up at the night sky.

Large cities had a serious environmental pollution issue so the sky was smokey and no stars could be.

She suddenly had an urge to see them.

She was still observing the sky when her phone suddenly vibrated.

Fu Yanzhi: [Come to the door.]

Ji Qingying was taken aback, and immediately walked towards the door with her mobile phone in hand.

As soon as she opened the door she saw him, standing in front of her.

“What happened?”

Ji Qingying had a smile on her face, “I thought you went to shower and slept already.”

“Yeah.”

Fu Yanzhi didn’t say anything, and handed something over to her.

She looked down, and saw that it was a lollipop.

“This is–”

“Eat it and go to sleep.”

Ji Qingying held the lollipop in front of Fu Yanzhi and blinked, “For me?”

Fu Yanzhi just stared at her.

Ji Qingying laughed and understood what he meant.

She looked him straight in the eye and her corners of her lips bent as she smiled, “Then what if I don’t want to sleep after eating?”

Fu Yanzhi: “…”

Seeing that he had stiffened up, she decided to let him off the hook.

She looked at the colorful lollipop in her hand, with a little amount of surprise, “Why do you have a lollipop in your house?”

“The little kid that I met in the hospital gave it to me.”

It was in the afternoon.

Fu Yanzhi had given it to a child with congenital heart disease who got discharged.

The child’s mother told her that it was her reward for taking medicine and injections obediently.
The child shook her head and instead gave it to him.

Thinking of this, he looked down at Ji Qingying, “Are you free for a few days?”

“Yes.”

Ji Qingying didn’t even think about it and replied immediately, “If you are the one looking for me, I am free any time.”

Fu Yanzhi was taken aback by her straightforwardness.

He couldn’t find words to respond with for the first time in his life, and he was left speechless, “Why are you–”

He couldn’t find the right words.

Ji Qingying brows rose to show the obvious delight on her face and she smiled, “I am helping you make up your mind.”

She stared at the lollipop in her hand, “I have to remind you all the time, that I keep thinking about you.”

Fu Yanzhi: “…”
