"Let's go, quick. Once we're out I'll call the hospital and ask them to check on Li Xiu." Xu Lan dragged the boy and urged him on. The man even took a few bed sheets from the ward in order to cover up Bai Wu's body.
"Mm, okay!" A smile that stretched from ear to ear appeared on Bai Wu's face as the boy happily exclaimed.
