Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 793

Chapter 793: I Will Protect You
The smoked duck alone costs forty yuan each. When she took out the things one by one, Father Pan already changed his clothes and came back.

Seeing so many things on the dining table, Father Pan shook his head and said, “No wonder the box is so heavy.”

It took them over an hour to store everything. When the two were resting in the living room while eating tangerine, Mother Pan asked, “Husband, why did Jiajia’s boyfriend suddenly give so many things?”

After thinking about it, Father Pan said, “Maybe it’s because he will stay with us for a few days. So, he sent these in advance.”

Mother Pan felt that what her husband said made sense and said, “What a sensible child. I feel much more at ease leaving my daughter with such a person.”

Father Pan glanced at his wife and said, “Don’t you like Xiao Guan very much before? Why did you suddenly change your mind?”

Mother Pan sighed and said, “Well, no matter how much I like Xiao Guan, our daughter doesn’t have the same feelings as him. What’s more, because of Xiao Guan’s work, he often leaves home and our daughter will be alone at home.”

“Even if she lives with him in the military camp, he still has to go on missions. They may be together for less than three months a year. Not to mention, his job is very dangerous. What if something happens to him? Isn’t it will be our daughter who will suffer in the end?”

“In comparison, I prefer someone who can accompany my daughter every day and take care of each other. In this way, our daughter will not feel lonely, and we will not have to worry about her future,” she added with a smile.

Father Pan nodded and said with a smile, “It’s good that you can think of this. I’m worried that you will agree because he gave you a lot of things and not because of his personality.”

Mother Pan glared at her husband and said, “Do you think he can make me side with him with these things?”

Father Pan listened to his wife’s words and said nothing, but his eyes were full of smiles. Their children all inherited his wife’s love of food. Therefore, with so many good ingredients and so many delicious snacks, it was only a matter of time before his wife would side with this son-in-law.

At the same time, in the county hospital, Song Yan was reading Li Shu’s examination report in his office. He compared the data from the last test with the data from this test and felt that he must have hallucinated due to fatigue.

Although both reports come from the same person, there are huge differences. In the new data, a few signs of sickle cell anemia were shown in Li Shu’s report. In the previous data, the signs of sickle cell anemia were clear.

It is impossible to reduce the number of sickle cells by more than 80%. There has never been any record of any treatment for this congenital disorder.

Everyone with this disease has a short lifespan because there is no cure for it. However, the data before him suggested that the disease was potentially treatable.

Song Yan was excited at the thought of the possibility of curing the disease and couldn’t wait to tell his teacher the news. If they could find a cure for the disease, they could save many lives. He quickly put the test results in a folder and went to find his teacher.

In less than fifteen minutes, he arrived at Li Shu’s ward and entered with a smile on his face.

Seeing his bright smile, Li Shu asked curiously, “Brother Yan, did something good happen? You look in a good mood.”

Song Yan nodded and asked, “Xiao Shu, where is your grandfather?”

“My grandfather returned to Xie Village. He said he needed to prepare a room so that I could stay with him when I was discharged from the hospital.”

After hearing what she said, Song Yan recalled the conversation between Aunt Li and Li Shu that day, and the joy in his heart disappeared. He pulled up a chair and sat down beside her bed.

Looking at her smile, he frowned and said, “Xiao Shu, if you are bullied, you must tell me. As your senior brother, I will protect you. Don’t keep everything inside.”

Li Shu was surprised after hearing what he said, and asked, “Brother Yan, what makes you think I was bullied? Did you hear something?”

Song Yan was a little embarrassed when he heard her question. He didn’t want her to know that he had eavesdropped on her conversation with her grandmother. However, he didn’t want to lie to her either. Therefore, he chose not to speak.

Seeing him avoiding his gaze, Li Shu had a guess in her mind. Apart from her father, her grandfather, and Lu Jueyu’s family, Song Yan was the only one who treated her warmly and kindly.

So, instead of being angry, she smiled and said, “Brother Yan, no one bullies me. My grandfather is old and I chose to live with him. After all, he has no one with him while my grandma has Shitou on her side.”

“You don’t have to worry about me. If someone bullies me, I will definitely tell you,” she added while gazing at the young woman sitting across from her bed.

Song Yan looked at her intently and was not aware of her gaze at all. He reached out to hold her hand and said, “Xiao Shu, from now on, I am your family. So, no matter what others say about you, you are not alone.”

“Okay.” Li Shu nodded.

The young woman sitting opposite them stared at Li Shu with eyes full of jealousy and hatred. Seeing his daughter’s strange behavior, the middle-aged man frowned and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

The girl was startled by her father’s words, shook her head, and said, “Father, I’m fine. I’m just a little tired.”
