“Big Brother, Mommy, come quickly. Grandpa and Grandma are back!” Gu Yu shouted at them from downstairs.

Gu Su took Zhizhi and helped his mother down the stairs.

A team of medical staff first moved all kinds of medical equipment in.

Ever since she woke up, Shi Cui could not stay a moment longer. She wanted to be discharged from the hospital and go home. She wanted to go home and recuperate.

Gu Lin had no choice but to give his grandmother a full-body examination. For safety’s sake, he also brought a full set of equipment from the hospital home. They owned the hospital anyway, so his Eldest Brother would pay for all the expenses.

Shi Cui was sitting in a wheelchair with an oxygen bag tied to her neck. After entering the room, she pulled down the oxygen bag and looked around.”Where’s Zhizhi? Where’s my good granddaughter?”

“Grandma, Zhizhi is here.” Gu Su carried his younger sister and walked forward.

He placed Zhizhi on the ground and motioned for her to go over.

“Oh?” Shi Cui glanced at her eldest grandson. “You’re back too.”

Then, she looked at the little girl standing in front of her. The little girl’s clear big eyes melted her with just one look.

“Grandma, you’re better now? You escaped from the hospital?” Zhizhi looked at the old lady in front of her curiously. She looked different from when she was lying down.

Shi Cui was stunned for a moment, and then she smiled. “Yes, yes, yes, yes. Grandma escaped from the hospital. The hospital is not a good place!”

Zhizhi nodded. “Yes, I heard that hospitals eat people up. Many people can’t get out after entering the hospital. Grandma, you’re so amazing to be able to escape from the hospital!”

Zhizhi’s little face was full of admiration, and she was serious and sincere.

Shi Cui was even happier. She made a shushing gesture with her index finger and whispered, “It was your Third Brother who helped me. He’s a doctor, that’s why I was able to escape so smoothly.”

Zhizhi’s mouth was round, and she also whispered, “Oh, Third Brother is amazing!”

Shi Cui laughed out loud and pulled her into her arms. “You’re indeed my good granddaughter. You’re like me!”

Gu Lin picked up Zhizhi and rushed forward. He put his hand under her armpit and shook her with a smile. “You little rascal!”

Zhizhi did not understand what she said, or what she said wrong, but she felt itchy all over being lifted by Gu Lin. She laughed as she struggled.

Gu An, Gu Nian, and Gu Su looked at each other and heaved a long sigh of relief. They felt as if the sky had cleared up and the dark clouds that had shrouded the Gu family’s residence had all disappeared.

Gu An patted his son’s shoulder. “That Miss Qin Huai is our family’s great benefactor. So are the people from Peppermint Alley.”

Gu Su nodded. “Don’t worry. I know what to do.”

The liveliness continued until night fell, and Zhizhi was so tired that she could not keep her eyes open anymore. Only then did everyone return to their rooms.

Han Li personally washed Zhizhi and changed her into her pajamas, but she was reluctant to send Zhizhi back to her room.

“Let her sleep with us,” Gu An said. “She’s new here and might not be used to it. Gu Su fired the maid who followed Zhizhi today, saying that she didn’t work hard enough.”

Han Li immediately said, “Those who don’t work hard should resign. In the future, I’ll personally take care of the child. I’m going to make up for all the years that I’ve owed!”

Gu An watched as Han Li put Zhizhi, who had fallen asleep, on the bed and then carefully lay down next to her. She looked at her daughter’s sleeping face unwillingly. Fortunately, she had found Zhizhi. Otherwise, Han Li would have gone crazy one day.

The Heavens had taken pity on Zhizhi, and she had finally returned.

It had been two days, and Zhizhi finally had a good night’s sleep. She was so tired that she did not even have the time to dream.

Everyone in the Gu family treated her so well, which made her feel a little more at ease. This was her home, indeed her home. Everyone liked her, which made the tension and vigilance in her heart gradually disappear.

She wanted to live well and grow up well. Only when she grew up would she be able to find Brother Shen Bai.

She wanted to bury Brother Shen Bai in her heart. No one could know about him. She could not let Brother Shen Bai be in danger. When she grew up, she wanted to be as capable as his sister. She wanted to protect Brother Shen Bai with her life like a sister and not let him be hurt even a little! She could definitely do it! Definitely!

Zhizhi secretly made a wish in her sweet dream.
