The phone was so hot from chatting, if it weren't so late, Xu Nianhua wouldn't have wanted to hang up.
Back in bed, Xu Nianhua hugged her blanket, a hint of sweetness curling at the corners of her mouth.

"Xiaoxi, what do you think about learning some self-defense?" On the way to the hospital, Xu Nianhua suggested to Su Xi.
"Okay." Su Xi nodded without a second thought, then looked at Xu Nianhua hesitantly and asked, "Nianhua, won't it be too tiring? I can't even catch my breath after jogging, can I really learn it?"
"Let's just give it a try." Xu Nianhua proposed, saying, "We don't have to master it, just learn a few moves to deal with people. What do you think?"
"That sounds good."
Su Xi nodded repeatedly, just about to mention Wa Lei, when Xu Nianhua said, "Don't say it's because of you. This is just bad luck for us, Wa Lei was out of line, it has nothing to do with anyone else."
