Chapter 29 - Safe

Glaring at him, Ye Chaoxiang focussed his attention on the little kid sitting on top of his table. Lee Ai was holding the teddy bear Bai Renxiang had bought for her tightly while she looked away from him.

She was scared that he would scold her for running away from the hospital. Sobbing again, Lee Ai apologized. "I am sorry. I did not mean to run or cause you to worry or create trouble.Don't be mad at little Ai."

Sighing, Ye Chaoxiang said carried her from the table and hugged her.

"Ssh it's alright. I am not angry at all. I just could not believe that you destroyed many things and stressed the nurse," Ye Chaoxiang said. How could he be angry at such a cute child?

Pouting her small pink lips, Lee Ai denied, "That was not me, handsome doctor. Little Ai will never do that."

"Really?" He asked raising his right brow lightly. Ye Chaoxiang could sniff her lie.

"Okay I did it but it was for a good reason," she defended her actions.

"Oh! Care to state your good reason?"

"It was because you were nowhere to be found when that nurse wanted to stab me with that injection. She also forced little Ai to eat alot and made her swallow those awfully bitter and smelly drugs," Lee Ai explained with a sour face her bitter experience that morning.

"So you caused such a mess just because you did not see your handsome doctor?" Yang Chen asked unbelievably. This kid never cease to amaze him.

"And you gave her a hard time?" Ye Chaoxiang himself was shocked.

Nodding and shaking her head in confirmation to what they said, Lee Ai corrected. "Yes to both and no to handsome doctor."

"Meaning?" Ye Chaoxiang probed further. What does she mean by no to him?

"I did not give her a hard time I gave her a tough time as payback for forcing and feeding me with those drugs instead of asking nicely and getting my permission,"Lee Ai said with a smile and later a frown with her hands wrapped around her teddy bear.

"You should not have done that. How many times do I have to tell you that those medicines are good for your health? Don't you want to get well?" Ye Chaoxiang scolded tenderly so as not to scare her and make her cry.

"But you said I should always fight for what I want and taking those medicines was not what little Ai wanted so she fought," Lee Ai smartly yet innocently used his words against him.

"Sigh, just don't do that again. Where are your flip-flops?"

"I don't know," Lee Ai answered.

'What a stubborn kid.' Ye Chaoxiang decided to drop the matter and called for Lee Ai's injection before shifting his attention to his troublesome friend.

"Where did you find her?" He asked with a stern face.

"Beside a coffee shop almost at the end of the street. I was surprised to see her too. She was a mess."

*Flashback*

After Lee Ai ran out of the hospital, she kept on running not caring about the curious glances trailing behind her. When she finally got tired and realized that her handsome doctor. Walking tiredly to the side of a coffee shop, she sat down on the grass, knees up and face buried in it she cried.

"Waaah! Handsome doctor where are you? Little Ai is scared. I don't know this place or where to go," she called out with a shaky voice.

Yang Chen just got out of a game shop across the road and was about to board his car when he saw a little kid beside a coffee shop. She was wearing a hospital gown with her Golden brown hair all over her shoulders and a teddy bear in hand.

'What is a sick child doing on the street alone?' he thought. Without wasting time he hurriedly crossed the road and went to the child.

"Hey there princess. Why are you crying?" Yang Chen asked. The next thing he saw made his eyes pop. It was the kid he and the boys used to visit at their free time. Ye Chaoxiang had introduced her to them a long time back.

'Who would have thought that I would meet that sweet and cheerful kid again? But what is she doing in a place that is not the hospital and where the hell is Xiang?' he thought looking around to see if he would see Ye Chaoxiang.

Looking up at the person in front of her Lee Ai pounced into his embrace. "Chenchen take little Ai to handsome doctor now. Little Ai is scared. I want handsome doctor, waaah!"

"It's alright now. I will take you to the hospital to meet your handsome doctor, okay? Don't cry anymore. Pretty princess's don't cry," Yang Chen said to calm her down.. Standing up with her in his embrace he walked towards the direction of the hospital.
