Li Lan looked at Chen Hao with some confusion, as this had never happened before.

Chen Hao had been her intern since she joined the hospital, and it had been several years since then. She had never seen him in such a distracted state before.

Or could it be that she had never truly understood him?

Recently, Li Lan shifted her focus and realized that there were many beautiful things besides love. Although she still liked Chen Hao, she was no longer obsessed with the idea that he would like her too.

Li Lan did go on blind dates arranged by her family, but she hadn’t met anyone she wanted to start a family with. Chen Hao was still the person she had in mind, but she was rational.

“Let’s go,” Chen Hao said to Li Lan, his spirit suddenly uplifting.

“Okay,” Li Lan shook off her messy thoughts and followed Chen Hao.

After checking the rooms, Li Lan tidied up the files she was responsible for, as she prepared to get off work. Having worked the night shift, she was quite exhausted. As soon as she finished, her colleagues called her to go off-work together.

Chen Hao was packing his own files and looked for Li Lan when he was done, only to find that she was already gone.

Chen Hao silently took his bag and left work.

Early in the morning, Qin Xue and her mother prepared the dough for Liangpi. One washed the dough while the other prepared breakfast.

“Mom, when does my younger sister get her vacation?” Qin Xue asked about Qin Jiale’s situation.

Nangong Shulan thought that it was already early June, and summer vacation was indeed approaching. She had almost forgotten about this matter.

“About a week,” Nangong Shulan recalled the vacations in previous years and guessed that it should be around a week more.

“Hmm, what does our family usually rely on for income?” Qin Xue asked about the family’s situation while washing the dough.

“Just farming; there’s no other source of income,” Nangong Shulan thought that if there were other sources of income, her two children could continue their studies. However, it was indeed due to the lack of income that the siblings had to drop out of school.

“Mom, my younger sister lives at school during her first year of high school, right?” Qin Xue recalled that she started living at school when she was in junior high school.

“Yes, she comes home once a month,” Nangong Shulan thought of her dutiful and understanding younger daughter, and seeing her elder daughter becoming more and more capable, she felt relieved.

Qin Xue thought that if she wasn’t going back soon, she could have asked Qin Jiale to come to the research institute to keep her company. Summer vacation would last almost two months, by which time she would have given birth.

Qin Xue thought that if she gave birth, it would be difficult for her to take care of two children alone. Fortunately, the family of this body was good.

Mother and daughter chatted and laughed as they made breakfast and washed the dough.

Qin Xue covered the washed dough with a lid and set it aside to let it settle. Then she washed her hands and prepared to eat breakfast as she was hungry.

When Chu Molin and Qin Yu came in, they saw Qin Xue looking hungrily at the breakfast on the table, her eyes like a dog eyeing a bone.

“If you’re hungry, why don’t you eat?” Chu Molin came to Qin Xue’s side and asked.

“Waiting for you and Xiao Yu,” Qin Xue wanted to eat, but she had just finished her tasks.

“Then eat quickly, don’t starve yourself,” Chu Molin had gone jogging in the morning.

“Mom, let’s eat,” Qin Xue called to her mother in the kitchen.

“You guys go ahead, I’ll be there in a minute,” Nangong Shulan was gloating over the pumpkin porridge that Qin Xue liked.

“You guys start eating; I’ll go help Mom,” Qin Yu smiled at his sister and brother-in-law before entering the kitchen.

“Chu Molin, do your research institute have special recruitments?” Qin Xue asked, looking at Qin Yu’s retreating figure.

“Not here, I’m not sure about other places, why?” Chu Molin only knew about his own place, not about others.

“Nothing, just asking,” Qin Xue was thinking about the major national policy changes that would take place in a few years. If there were extra staffing quotas, they would likely be among the first to be reformed.
