Bai Xiao returned to the hospital and, as it happened, was greeted by an old acquaintance.
In the consultation room, she saw the travel-worn Liu Hong.
"What is this..." Bai Xiao wanted to curse. Liu Hong had always been pestering her to get out, and Bai Xiao had been one hundred percent against it. The only explanation for her showing up in Bai Xiao's office now was that Liu Hong had run off on her own, definitely without the consent of Liu Baoguo and Li Chunmei.
That couple treated their daughter like the apple of their eye; how could they possibly allow Liu Hong to go to another place, and such a long distance at that.
Liu Hong saw Bai Xiao and threw herself at her.
Clinging affectionately to Bai Xiao's arm, she cajoled and acted cute, "Xiao, you're the best. I have come to seek shelter with you. You wouldn't turn me away, would you? If you do, I'll be left homeless on the streets. I am your elder sister after all; you wouldn't be so heartless, right?"
