Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Xia Guiying glanced at Mu Tiantian's feet. She already knew that Mu Tiantian's feet were injured. "Ruohan, let Ayu carry you. Walking with an injured foot will put more strain on you. Anyway, Ayu is strong and has a lot of strength."

Then Qin Dongyang got out of the passenger seat and came over, patted Ling Jieyu's arm, and chimed in, "That's right, Ruohan, don't be polite with A-Yu, A-Yu has plenty of strength."

Mu Tiantian looked at Ling Jieyu's arms. He wasn't wearing a suit, and his shirt was a bit small, making his arms look quite strong.

Like Fu Zhengting, he looks strong and powerful.

Her gaze drifted down to take another look at Ling Jieyu's physique.

His physique is similar to Fu Zhengting's, a strong and muscular build.

Rolling up the sleeves to reveal the wrists creates a visually striking effect.

No wonder this playboy has so many girlfriends; he certainly has the looks to back it up.

But no matter how handsome or charismatic this Aquaman is, he's not her type.

She would never like a man who shares rotten cucumbers.

It's better to have a man like Fu Zhengting who is devoted, clean, and has many tricks up his sleeve.

She shook her head, determined to walk by herself.

Ling Jieyu narrowed his peach blossom eyes slightly.

He didn't miss the look of disgust in Mu Tiantian's eyes just now.

That look seemed to say: You have AIDS, don't come near me.

In Mu Tiantian's mind, he was probably one of the people with AIDS.

The man's dignity was severely challenged, and his inherent rebelliousness was aroused. He bent down and picked up Mu Tiantian.

The unsuspecting Mu Tiantian was startled.

She was angry and resisted Ling Jieyu's touch, but fearing she would fall, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Ling Jieyu's neck.

Ling Jieyu smiled, quite pleased with Mu Tiantian's reaction of hugging his neck, and strode into the hospital.

Xia Guiying and Qin Dongyang exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh.

The two followed.

Xia Guiying whispered in Qin Dongyang's ear, "Ayu is quite domineering."

A domineering man can easily make a woman fall for him.

She believed that her daughter and Ayu would develop feelings for each other over time.

As long as your daughter is prevented from seeing Fu Zhengting again, her world will consist only of A Yu, and she will definitely fall in love with him.

The nurse on duty stepped out of the elevator and saw Ling Jieyu carrying someone in. Seeing how easily he carried her, she couldn't help but swoon.

She walked over and asked, "Handsome, what's wrong with her?"

Mistaking Mu Tiantian, who was being held, for Ling Jieyu's girlfriend, he looked at Mu Tiantian with envy.

"I have a high fever," Ling Jieyu said truthfully.

The nurse on duty touched Mu Tiantian's forehead, realizing the seriousness of the situation. She led Ling Jieyu into the elevator, saying, "Your fever is quite high. Let's go to the examination room on the second floor to see what's causing it, and then we'll try to bring it down..."

As she spoke, she glanced at Qin Dongyang and Xia Guiying, who were about to follow her in, and reminded them, "You two should register."

Xia Guiying and Qin Dongyang then remembered the issue of Mu Tiantian's ID card.

Just as Xia Guiying was about to ask the nurse if she could register without an ID card, Mu Tiantian spoke first, "Dad, Mom, the ID card is in my phone case."

When I went to register for the car model competition, I kept my ID card inside my phone case and never took it out.

Once inside the elevator, she asked Ling Jieyu to let her down so she could get her ID card.

Ling Jieyu's rebellious streak hadn't subsided, and he was unwilling to let go.

Before the nurse on duty could press the close button, he let Xia Guiying come in and touch Mu Tiantian's pockets.

He noticed that after Mu Tiantian sent the message, she put her phone into her coat pocket.

Mu Tiantian was a little angry when she saw that Ling Jieyu not only didn't put her down, but hugged her even tighter.

She struggled to get down, but her body was limp and she couldn't muster any strength.

She looked up, threatening Ling Jieyu with her eyes to put her down.

Ling Jieyu raised an eyebrow in a roguish manner, refusing to let go.

She has a fever now and can't stand him.

He was born rebellious.

Mu Tiantian was enraged by Ling Jieyu's shameless behavior, and her temper flared up.

Unfortunately, she was too weak to struggle, and her biological parents were on the same side as Ling Jieyu.

She had no choice but to give up.

Xia Guiying observed their series of interactions and felt a spark of romance reminiscent of a pair of bickering lovers.

Ah Yu's domineering manner was actually quite cute. She suppressed a smile and went inside to take Mu Tiantian's phone out of her coat pocket.

She removed her phone case and took out her ID card.

Looking at Mu Tiantian's photo on her ID card, I think she's so cute.

I don't know when this photo was taken. She still had some baby fat on her face, so she looked to be about 15 or 16 years old.

She checked the expiration date and guessed correctly.

Look at the address above again and silently memorize it.

Qin Dongyang watched it too and memorized it.

We have to go to this place, especially the road to the market where my daughter got lost years ago.

We must find out exactly how my daughter was abducted from a service area in the city center to a rural market.

What the daughter went through during this time can only be known by finding the people who trafficked her.

"Uncle Qin, Aunt Xia, you can register now, we're going upstairs." Ling Jieyu gestured to the nurse on duty that they could press the close button.

The nurse on duty understood, pressed the button, and the elevator doors slowly closed.

The atmosphere in the cramped space was subtle.

Mu Tiantian was still protesting against Ling Jieyu with her eyes.

Ling Jieyu gave a lazy smile. "If you have a fever, behave yourself."

That's a good point.

Mu Tiantian felt awkward and uncomfortable listening to this; she felt that Ling Jieyu's words were somewhat flirtatious.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Ling Jieyu, put me down right now!"

Ling Jieyu obediently let Mu Tiantian go downstairs.

He wanted to see if Mu Tiantian could stand steadily on her own.

When he was a child, he had a high fever and felt so weak that he couldn't stand up straight.

Moreover, Mu Tiantian also had an injury on her foot.

Mu Tiantian didn't expect Ling Jieyu to be so cooperative this time.

But she stood there for less than a few seconds before she began to sway and collapse.

Out of professional instinct as a medical worker, the on-duty nurse tried to support her, but Ling Jieyu caught her first.

With a "ding," the elevator doors opened, and he picked her up again in a princess carry.

Mu Tiantian gave up struggling.

After this encounter, she gained some understanding of Ling Jieyu.

The more she struggled, the more intoxicated Ling Jieyu seemed to become.

Ling Jieyu carried her out, then looked down at the obedient Mu Tiantian and said, "I thought you weighed at least 120 pounds, but I realized you're quite light after I carried you."

One sentence was enough to enrage Mu Tiantian.

What woman wants to hear someone say she weighs 120 pounds?

She squinted fiercely and asked, "Do I look that fat?"

Ling Jieyu's gaze swept over Mu Tiantian's chest, and a wicked smirk appeared on his lips. "Judging by your chest and butt alone, you're quite plump."
