Chapter 242 Remember Our Promise
Liu Bao nodded and turned to walk out of the banquet hall.
Da Bao then walked towards Lin Quan and said in a low voice, "Uncle Lin, we need your help with something. Please come with me."
Although Lin Quan was somewhat puzzled, he still followed Da Bao out of the banquet hall.
The banquet hall was still filled with laughter and cheerful conversation.
Qibao and his friends, including Erbao and Sanbao, were having so much fun that they didn't notice their older brothers leaving.
Liu Bao quietly left the banquet hall and took the elevator to the 10th floor.
He stood at the door of room 1002, took a deep breath, and pressed the doorbell.
The door was quickly opened, and a tall man stood in the doorway, glanced at him expressionlessly, and stepped aside to let him in.
Inside the room, a woman wearing a black butterfly mask sat on the sofa, holding a cup of green tea and taking a small sip.
She looked up at Liu Bao, her voice cold: "The medicine is here, but you must remember our agreement."
Liu Bao nodded, his tone firm: "I will keep my promise."
The woman chuckled and waved her hand: "Xiao Hei, you stay with him, just in case they don't keep their promise."
The man standing to the side nodded, his sharp gaze fixed on Liu Bao.
Liu Bao didn't say much, picked up the medicine on the table, and turned to leave.
The woman watched his departing figure, a meaningful smile playing on her lips, and whispered, "Stay close to him."
Liu Bao returned to the lounge in the banquet hall, pushed open the door, and found Da Bao and Lin Quan already waiting there.
"Did you get it?" Da Bao asked eagerly.
Liu Bao nodded and handed the medicine to Lin Quan: "Uncle Lin, please confirm the authenticity of this medicine."
Lin Quan took the medicine, his brow furrowing slightly: "What kind of medicine is this? Where did you get it from?"
Da Bao explained, "We only received half the dosage before, and Daddy's health has only recovered by half. This is the other half, and we need you to confirm whether it is effective."
Lin Quan carefully examined the medicine and confirmed that its ingredients were the same as those of the medicine previously injected into Wei Hao.
He suddenly realized: "No wonder Wei Hao's body has only recovered by half, it turns out the dosage of medicine was insufficient."
He stood up, his tone firm: "I'll go give Li Tingjue the injection right away."
After Lin Quan left, Liu Bao and Da Bao began packing their luggage. Da Bao handed Liu Bao a backpack filled with their favorite items and some self-rescue tools.
“We have to learn to take care of ourselves,” Da Bao said softly, his voice tinged with reluctance. “One day, we will have to leave Mommy.”
Liu Bao nodded, changed into a black tracksuit, and said with a determined look in his eyes, "Let's go, we don't have much time left."
The two walked out of the lounge and looked around the banquet hall, but did not see Qibao.
A flicker of disappointment crossed Liu Bao's mind, but he quickly composed himself and whispered a reminder to Da Bao: "Hurry up, don't let Qi Bao find out."
They walked quickly toward the exit of the banquet hall, where Xiao Hei was already waiting.
Upon seeing the two emerge, Xiao Hei's face lit up, and he whispered, "Come with me."
Meanwhile, Qibao and Erbao were playing house. She glanced up and saw two familiar figures disappearing through the doorway.
"Huh? Are those Brother Liubao and Brother Dabao?" Qibao stood up in confusion, ran to the door and looked around, but couldn't find them.
Erbao came over and gently comforted her, "They're probably playing with Dabao and the others, don't worry."
Qibao pouted, feeling a little uneasy, but still nodded: "Okay..."
Outside the banquet hall, Xiao Hei led Liu Bao and Da Bao out through the back door.
As night fell, the three figures gradually disappeared into the darkness, heading towards an unknown destination.
Liu Bao glanced back at the banquet hall and silently said to himself, "Qi Bao, wait for us to come back."
Da Bao patted him on the shoulder and said firmly, "Let's go, we still have a long way to go."
The two figures walked further and further away, disappearing into the night.
……
Tan Zhengchu sat at the dining table, watching Su Yingxue eat her food with her head down, and a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on his lips.
Her eating manners weren't exactly elegant, and even a bit hasty, but in his eyes, they seemed exceptionally cute.
He gently put down his chopsticks, stood up, and went to the kitchen to bring her a bowl of steaming soup.
"Eat slowly, don't choke." He gently placed the soup bowl in front of her, his tone filled with affection.
Su Yingxue looked up and smiled at him, her eyes curving into crescents. "Thank you, Brother Zhengchu, this soup smells so good!"
Just as Tan Zhengchu was about to sit down, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the doorway.
He turned his head and saw A-Qian and Lao San walking in side by side.
A-Qian wore a white dress, the hem of which swayed slightly, making her look elegant and graceful; Lao San wore a black tuxedo, his expression was cold and stern, and his gaze swept around the restaurant before finally landing on Su Yingxue.
"Oh, Zhengchu is so thoughtful, he even brought the soup himself." Aqian said with a smile, her tone teasing.
The third brother walked directly up to Su Yingxue, frowning slightly. "Miss Su, where are those seven children? I have a gift for them."
Su Yingxue put down her spoon, looked up at him, and said with a hint of teasing in her eyes, "A gift? Third brother, when did you become so generous? Did you buy something weird again?"
The third brother's face stiffened, and his tone was somewhat displeased, "What do you mean by that? The gift I gave was naturally carefully selected."
A-Qian chuckled softly and tugged at Lao San's sleeve, "Lao San, don't be so serious. Ying Xue was just joking."
The third brother snorted coldly, his gaze sweeping over Su Yingxue, "She's not joking, she's clearly being willful and capricious, and she speaks too bluntly."
A-Qian glared at him, her tone tinged with displeasure, "Third brother, you're wrong. You don't understand how good Yingxue is at all."
After she finished speaking, she took Su Yingxue's hand and patted it gently, "Don't pay attention to him, he's just a blockhead and can't talk."
Upon hearing this, Su Yingxue couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Aqian, you're right. I won't get angry with a blockhead, otherwise wouldn't I become one of them?"
The two women looked at each other and smiled, their laughter clear and melodious.
The third brother's face instantly turned sullen, and he said awkwardly, "Yingxue, who are you calling a blockhead?"
Seeing this, Tan Zhengchu frowned slightly, picked up the spoon on the table, and gently tapped the third brother's finger, "Third brother, be polite to Yingxue."
The third brother's finger stung from the blow, and his face turned pale. "Zhengchu, what do you mean by this? She called me a blockhead, and you're still taking her side?"
Tan Zhengchu glanced at him coldly and said in a flat tone, "She said you're a blockhead, which is already very kind of her."
The third brother's face turned red with anger. He pointed at Tan Zhengchu and said, "Zhengchu, you...you've really changed! You never used to protect her like this!"
Tan Zhengchu didn't take it to heart, turned to look at Su Yingxue, and his tone instantly softened, "Yingxue, the soup is getting cold, drink it while it's hot."
