“I’m going to check on the children.”
Ren Li set down the cup in her hand.
Both Xiaobai and Little White were there, still so young.
She didn’t know how they were faring now.
Were they awake?
She hurried to the room next door where Xiaobai and Little White were sleeping.
Fortunately, the two children were sleeping soundly and did not seem to have woken up.
...
She then went to check on Tang Xincheng, uncertain if he had been startled awake by the storm.
Yet, she was really just being overanxious—in the middle of the night, it was likely that she was the only one awake.
When she returned, Tang Zhinian handed her a cup.
“Here, drink some Calming Tea.”
“Yuxin sure has a lot of good stuff.”
Upon hearing the name of the tea, Ren Li knew it was made by Tang Yuxin.
With a daughter like Tang Yuxin, it seemed that Tang Zhinian, her father, might indeed live a long, healthy life.
Naturally, she herself was also benefiting from it.
She took the cup; the temperature was just right.
Holding the cup, she sipped the tea inside, which had a mild, fresh hint of mint.
Wasn’t this supposed to calm the mind?
But why did it seem to stimulate the brain instead?
Could it be that her mind was not working right, and Tang Zhinian had decided to ‘wash’ it for her?
“Go to sleep,” Tang Zhinian patted Ren Li’s shoulder and then went to look after his grandson.
He chided Ren Li, but in truth, he too was worried that his grandson might have been frightened awake.
“Bring over Xiaobai and Little White,” Ren Li still felt uneasy.
Was this really Calming Tea?
It seemed more like a stimulating tea.
How come others would feel peaceful and fall asleep immediately after drinking it, yet after she drank it...
Her mind became even clearer.
“Why bring them here?”
Tang Zhinian asked Ren Li curiously.
“In case there really is a flood, we can hold them and run.”
What else was there to do on such a rainy day?
It seemed she heard some strange noises, but couldn’t fully wake up, thinking she was still dreaming.
“Yuxin, Yuxin...”
Gu Ning patted Tang Yuxin’s face.
She had been busy the day before and had been quite tired these past few days.
Not even the loud thunder last night had woken her up.
He knew today was Tang Yuxin’s day off.
The surgeries she performed were of high difficulty, so she had to rest well to avoid any problems during surgery.
It was Yuxin’s own requirement for herself, and it also prevented issues from arising later on.
Gu Ning knew her rest schedule well, so during her days off, he usually let her sleep until she woke up naturally in the morning.
Except there was one circumstance where she had to wake up: if the hospital called.
“Yuxin,” Gu Ning patted her face again, “wake up...”
Tang Yuxin put her hand on her forehead.
“What should I do?
I’m so sleepy.”
Yawning again, she laid her head on Gu Ning’s lap and continued to sleep.
She felt like she could sleep for an entire day and night.
Why was she so sleepy?
Could it be she was getting too old?
But that didn’t make sense.
She was only in her early twenties and still young.
Some people at her age hadn’t even finished college yet.
So, she was just exhausted.
No, that’s right; she had drunk a cup of Calming Tea before bed last night, which was why she slept so soundly.
“Get up; you need to answer a call.”
Gu Ning put the phone to Tang Yuxin’s ear, “It’s from the hospital; they might have an emergency.”
But then again, when was a call from the hospital to Tang Yuxin ever not an emergency?
So much so that she claimed to work only every other day.
In reality, she had to go in every day, but even so, she still had much more rest than the average doctor.
Tang Yuxin opened her eyes and stretched out her hand to answer the call.
Still resting on Gu Ning’s lap, she really didn’t feel like getting up.
