Yang Tiantian's colleagues were impressed by Ye Chen's wealth and tried to get his contact information. Ye Chen politely rejected them and asked Yang Tiantian out to dinner. Meanwhile, Teacher Fan's surgery was successful, and he was recovering well. Fan Ying questioned Ye Chen about his interactions with the nurses, prompting Ye Chen to reflect on his feelings for Yang Tiantian and his commitment to Su Wanyi.

Fan Ying looked at her parents with a smug expression and said.

"See, I wasn’t wrong, even Brother Ye Chen admitted it."

Teacher Fan and his wife looked at their daughter and shook their heads helplessly.

They always felt that matters of the heart couldn’t be controlled by others and had to be experienced by the person involved.

Ye Chen chatted with Teacher Fan for a while longer and then noticed that it was already lunchtime.

He asked.

"Teacher, Mrs. Fan, I’ll go buy you some food to eat, what would you like?"

Teacher Fan waved his hand, and Zhao Xiuling quickly said.

"Ye Chen, no need, your teacher just had surgery not long ago and can’t eat outside food; the hospital provides meals."

Initially, Fan Ying wanted to say she’d go out with Ye Chen, but upon hearing her mother say this, the words almost at her lips were swallowed back.

At her age, she couldn’t stay put in a hospital.

She wasn’t familiar with Modu and definitely couldn’t go out alone.

Seeing Ye Chen coming was perfect for the little girl, as she knew she’d found her chance.

But her mother didn’t give her the chance to speak, so it seemed she could only stay in the hospital and go nowhere.

However, Fan Ying still pinned her hopes on Ye Chen.

Ye Chen also felt that Mrs. Fan’s reasoning made sense, and he suddenly remembered what Yang Tiantian had just said.

"Alright then, seeing the teacher in good spirits, I won’t disturb you further, lest you can’t rest well."

Ye Chen said to Teacher Fan.

After all, Teacher Fan just wanted to check on Ye Chen. Being his student, he surely cared very much.

But Ye Chen was an adult now with his career to attend to, and it was hard for him to keep Ye Chen in the hospital for too long.

"Ye Chen, I’m doing fine here. There’s no need for you to keep coming back; focus on your work."

Teacher Fan said kindly.

Ye Chen had arranged everything in the hospital, and thus there was no reason to keep him here.

Upon hearing the conversation between her father and Ye Chen, Fan Ying’s lips pouted.

Ye Chen noticed Fan Ying’s expression and asked.

"Yingying, what’s wrong?"

"Brother Ye Chen, I’m so bored in the hospital. Can you take me out to play?"

Hearing this, Ye Chen laughed and said.

"Of course, no problem. Tell me, where do you want to go?"

"I want to go to Disneyland."

Fan Ying said.

She had always dreamed of visiting Disney.

Now that she finally made it to Modu, how could she miss such a great opportunity?

"Sure, I’ll take you now."

Zhao Xiuling heard this and interjected.

"Ye Chen, you focus on your things. Don’t listen to this little girl’s nonsense."

She just felt that they had already troubled Ye Chen enough, and taking more of his time to play with her daughter seemed inappropriate.

Zhao Xiuling also understood Fan Ying’s feelings towards Ye Chen, considering he already had a girlfriend, meaning her daughter was just having a one-sided infatuation.

As long as Ye Chen was out of sight, her daughter’s feelings would surely change.

"Mom, Brother Ye Chen isn’t as busy as you say he is."

Fan Ying retorted.

Then she looked at Ye Chen and asked.

"Brother Ye Chen, I’m right, aren’t I?"

Given that Mrs. Fan had spoken, it wasn’t appropriate for Ye Chen to take Fan Ying’s side.

He suddenly seemed to remember something and said.

"If Mrs. Fan hadn’t reminded me, I almost forgot. I really do have something urgent to deal with today."

Ye Chen’s expression was so convincing it even deceived Fan Ying.

"Yingying, it seems today is definitely not possible."

Ye Chen said to Fan Ying with an apologetic look.

"Oh, alright then."

Fan Ying said with a disappointed expression.

She knew she’d have to spend another day in the hospital.

It’s not that Fan Ying didn’t want to stay with her father, but girls her age just love going out to play.

"Ye Chen, you should hurry up with what you have to do; sorry for holding you up."

Teacher Fan said quickly.

If he’d known Ye Chen had something to do, he wouldn’t have allowed Fan Ying to invite him over and make him come in person.

"Dear, see Ye Chen off for me."

Teacher Fan said to his wife.

Ye Chen quickly stopped them and said.

"Teacher, there’s no need to make Mrs. Fan see me off; you’d make me feel too much like an outsider."

Zhao Xiuling looked at her pouting daughter and said.

"Yingying, you go see Brother Ye Chen off."

Fan Ying stood still, showing no intention of seeing Ye Chen off.

"Is the little girl upset? You’re not even going to see me off?"

Ye Chen winked at Fan Ying and said.

Fan Ying, being clever, replied with a downcast voice.

"I’m just reluctant to see you go."

"Silly girl, it’s not like I won’t be back."

Ye Chen said with a smile to Fan Ying.

He then looked at Teacher Fan and Zhao Xiuling and said.

"Teacher, Mrs. Fan, I’m leaving."

Ye Chen walked towards the hospital room door, with Fan Ying following closely behind.

"Brother Ye Chen, wait for me."

Teacher Fan and Zhao Xiuling saw their daughter acting this way and shook their heads helplessly.

Ye Chen showed no intention of stopping, continuing to walk ahead.

Fan Ying hurried after him, shouting.

"Wait for me, wait for me."

Ye Chen walked a few more steps, then stopped and looked back at Fan Ying.

"Weren’t you unwilling to come out and see me off?"

"Hmph, no I wasn’t."

Fan Ying quickly retorted.

"So, what do you want to say to me?"

Fan Ying looked at Ye Chen and asked.

"You’re quite a clever little girl, picking up on things quickly."

"Of course."

Fan Ying said with a proud look.

"I wanted to tell you, I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow morning, and we’ll go to Disneyland."

Ye Chen said.

"Ah, really? You’re not lying to me?"

Fan Ying said with an incredible expression.

She thought the Disneyland trip was off, but didn’t expect to go tomorrow.

This meant her wish could come true.

"Why would I lie to you?"

Ye Chen found her comment amusing; it seemed this girl was easily tricked.

"Brother Ye Chen, you’re the best to me."

Fan Ying clung to Ye Chen’s arm, bouncing and laughing.

Ye Chen had no choice with this girl in front of him.

He knew spending tomorrow with Fan Ying would be exhausting, but what could he do?

After all, she was Teacher Fan’s daughter.

Ye Chen couldn’t refuse Fan Ying’s small request.

"I think I won’t be able to sleep from excitement tonight."

Fan Ying said with excitement.

"That’s not necessary, you’re so easily satisfied."

Ye Chen remarked, looking at the simple girl in front of him.

"It’s my dream to visit Disneyland, especially with you."

Upon hearing Fan Ying’s words, Ye Chen felt puzzled; he understood the first part but was unclear about the latter.

"What does that have to do with me?"
