Elite Doting Marriage: Crafty Husband, Aloof Cute Wife Chapter 988 Call Me Third Brother Like How Su Yue Does

Bai Lisong woke up and had returned to his ward. Bai Jing sat beside him and poured a cup of water, after which Bai Lisong slowly began to sip it.

Yan Rusheng stood beside the bed and watched the father and daughter. His expression was somber and it had reflected his mood.

Bai Lisong looked much better after drinking the warm water.

He glanced at Bai Jing and muttered, “Xiaojing, be nice to your mother the next time she is here. She is after all your mother, and she has the best interests for you.”

“Okay.” Bai Jing nodded.

She understood her father’s intentions. He was worried that she would be left alone if he passed away.

She finally understood the reason her father had insisted on sending her to the capital city. He had ignored that fact she was about to take her college entrance exams in a month and had applied for a transfer.

He knew of his condition, and he didn’t have much time left. He wanted to entrust her to a woman whom she had never met before.

He had done everything for the sake of her future. She had finally understood it now. So how could she bear to let her father down?

Bai Lisong smiled weakly. “My daughter is getting sensible.”

Bai Jing’s nose started to get red once more, and she breathed in deeply. “Daddy, do you feel like eating anything? I’ll buy porridge for you all right?”

“I’m not hungry. Perhaps later.” Bai Lisong shook his head, looking pale and weak.

“Okay,” Bai Jing mumbled and then bit her lip.

She rose and saw Yan Rusheng. She hastily greeted him. “Third Young Master, please have a seat.”

She was still very bashful.

Yan Rusheng quipped, “You can call me Third Brother like how Su Yue does.”

Bai Jing felt awkward. “How can I do that?”

Flourish & Prosper’s President was like a towering mountain. He was out of anyone’s reach.

Yan Rusheng pressed his lips. “If you call Xuxu Third sister-in-law and me as Third Brother, I’ll be glad.”

He had said it casually, but to others, he was flaunting.

Flaunting how much he loved Wen Xuxu and that they were inseparable.

It startled Bai Jing for a moment before she wore a smile. “All right then.”

Bai Lisong began to drift off to sleep and the ward fell silent once more.

Bai Jing brought the basin and towel she had used to wipe Bai Lisong into the bathroom so she could wash it.

Yan Rusheng quietly sat on the couch, and Bai Jing slightly jumped when she saw him.

She had assumed that he had left and her eyes were huge with shock.

Yan Rusheng placed the magazine he was browsing through. He glanced at Bai Jing. “When are you applying for university?”

Bai Jing softly answered, “Tomorrow.”

“I heard from Yueyue you want to go to A University.” Yan Rusheng walked towards Bai Jing and peered at her.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

Bai Jing bent her head and mumbled, “But I don’t have confidence.”

“Give it a try,” Yan Rusheng encouraged her. “Fill in those that you like.”

He spoke softly, but he was firm and encouraging.

Bai Jing cast her concerns aside and she smiled brightly. “All right, I will.”

“I’m going to work now. Call for the caretaker if you need help,” Yan Rusheng said after glancing at his watch.

Bai Jing nodded.

Yan Rusheng cast Bai Jing a long, quiet look before sweeping past her.

Bai Jing turned around and quietly watched him. Determination and confidence seemed to envelop her in that instant.

…

After breakfast, Xuxu changed and went downstairs. She saw Su Yue sitting on the sofa, holding a remote control, looking as if she was lost in thought.
