"I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy an electric fan. You stay here, and my younger siblings will come later," said Ruan Jianguo's voice.
"Mm," Shu Jiao replied softly, paused, and then added, "When you come back, bring a chicken. I'll go to the hospital kitchen later to stew it. Both Jiaojiao and Mom need to be nourished."
"Okay," Ruan Jianguo responded, followed by the sound of footsteps, which must have been him leaving.
Jiaojiao didn't want to face Shu Jiao, so she could only continue to pretend to sleep, thinking that she would probably not stay in the ward for long. Then she could open her eyes, and that way, she wouldn't have to face her.
But since Ruan Jianguo left, she never heard any footsteps indicating someone leaving.
Instead, even with her eyes closed, she could feel a pair of emotion-filled eyes steadily on her.
Jiaojiao started to get agitated, feeling indescribably uneasy.
