Chapter 371

371 We are Family

Zhang Li Xue and Bai Qi chatted for a long time at the restaurant’s parking space. When they finally made up their decision, Bai Qi drove her back to Zhang’s residence.

He helped Zhang Li Xue with her wheelchair and pushed her into the residence.

“Li Xue, you’re back.”

Zhang Li Xue turned and saw that her parents were in the living area. Seeing them together made her a little shy, especially after the discussion in the restaurant earlier.

“Mommy, why are you still awake?” Zhang Li Xue spoke.

“Your dad and I still have something to talk about,” Li Qin Yao said. She turned to Bai Qi and spoke, “Xi Xi had already asleep. Bai Qi, why don’t you stay over as well?”

“I may have to decline,” Bai Qi said. “I still have a morning shift tomorrow.”

Not too long ago, he had already taken a few days off. He still has to work hard at the hospital and help his colleagues to cover their shifts. Otherwise, he would feel uncomfortable.

Li Qin Yao wanted to persuade him. However, she also knew that it would be convenient for him to travel from his apartment. Moreover, he did not have spare clothes at the residence.

.....

“Then don’t worry about Xi Xi,” Li Qin Yao said. “Tomorrow, Aunt will help you to send her over to the kindergarten. She still has her change of clothes here.”

When Zhang Li Xue accompanied Bai Qi to S Country, Bai Xi Xi stayed with Zhang for a few days. During that time, Li Qin Yao bought her some clothes as well. When Bai Xi XI returned, Li Qin Yao kept some of her clothes at home so that it would be convenient for them later.

“Then, I have to trouble you.” Bai Qi spoke.

“Don’t be too polite.” Li Qin Yao waved her hand. “We are family.”

Bai Qi smiled. After exchanging a few words with the elders, Bai Qi turned to Zhang Li Xue and spoke a few words to her. After kissing her on the cheek, Bai Qi finally left.

Zhang Li Xue heaved a sigh. When she looked up again, Zhang Li Xue saw that her parents were looking at her.

“Li Xue, have you discussed it with Bai Qi?”

Her heartbeat accelerated the moment Zhang Li Xue heard her mother’s question. She turned the ring around her finger and nodded. “Mhm... Mommy, Daddy... We also thought that it was better to get a marriage certificate first. We can discuss the wedding once I have fully recovered.”

Li Qin Yao exchanged a glance with her husband. Then, she turned to her daughter again and smiled. “That’s good.”

“But, it would be hard for Bai Qi to take a day off from work,” Zhang Li Xue said. “We have to wait until he was on his day off.”

“Your grandparents are heading back to C Country in a few days,” Li Qin Yao said. “They also hoped to see the two of you get your certificate before they head back. Li Xue, what do you think?”

Zhang Li Xue hesitated. “This... I will have to discuss this with Bai Qi first.”

“If you are worried about Bai Qi’s day off, we can only ask your Uncle Qi Zheng to help out,” Zhang Yu Han spoke.

While he was diving his parents back, Zhang Yu Han had to listen to his father talking about his daughter’s lifetime events. His father had persuaded him to let Zhang Li Xue and Bai Qi get their certificate earlier.

Zhang Li Xue’s grandparents had only met Bai Qi a few times, but they liked him very much.

“Daddy...” Zhang Li Xue stared at her father in disbelief. She did not think that her father would want to ask for her uncle Qi Zheng’s help to bring up the matter.

Li Qin Yao glanced at her husband again. “Your Daddy and I had also talked about your condition.” She smiled. “We hope that before the wedding, Bai Qi and his sister could stay here. Bai Qi still has to work at the hospital and it would be inconvenient for him to look after you.”

Her daughter’s leg was injured. It would be difficult to move around the apartment with her injury.

“Your mother’s right,” Zhang Yu Han spoke. “If you stay here, your mother and the auntie can help to look after you. Moreover, I am still a little reluctant to let you move away.”

Her nose started to feel a little sour. All of the sudden, Zhang Li Xue had the urge to cry.

Zhang Li Xue was aware of the reason her parents had discussed this arrangement with her. They knew that she loved Bai Qi and was willing to let her get a certificate with him earlier.

She had always been blessed to have her family who loved and would pamper her this much.

After chatting with her parents for a long time, Zhang Li Xue stayed in the living area to wait for Bai Qi’s call.

Bai Qi was surprised when Zhang Li Xue mentioned her parents’ words. He had always thought that it would be hard for him to marry his little fairy. But once he had gotten her family’s acceptance and blessings, everything has always gone smoothly for him.

Of course, Bai Qi would be over the top if he could legally make Zhang Li Xue his wife. Seeing that they would be getting some help, Bai Qi would not reject it.

He too would not mind staying at the Zhang residence. It might be farther to the hospital, but he would feel more at ease to have someone to look after Zhang Li Xue and his sister while he was on his shift.

Zhang Li Xue did not chat with Bai Qi for a long time. Her Doctor Bai still had to go to work tomorrow morning and she wanted him to have a good night’s sleep.

Of course, Zhang Li Xue would not know that a certain someone was unable to sleep due to excitement...

Once she hang up, Zhang Li Xue pushed her wheelchair to return to her room. Just then, Zhang Li Xue happened to see a movement outside the window.

Seeing that her brother was practicing basketball on his own made her frown.

It was already late. Why would Zhang Yi Hai still practice basketball at this time?
