Chapter 5221 I Want to See Maple Leaves

"Baby wants to see maple leaves?"

……

"Yes."

Orange nodded.

A bitter smile appeared on his face.

"Before she went to bed yesterday, she suddenly told us that she wanted to see the maple leaves."

“We were surprised.”

"I don't understand why she suddenly wants to see maple leaves?"

"As far as we know, she has never told us or shown any love for maple leaves."

……

"There's none?"

Mother Xiao was a little surprised.

……

"Ah."

Orange nodded.

A hint of confusion appeared on his face.

But soon, she shook her head.

"It does not matter."

"She wants to see us and naturally we want to satisfy her."

"This child rarely asks us for anything..."

"He has been behaving well since he woke up this time..."

So good.

Ask nothing.

Cooperate with all inspections.

Take all the medicines you need.

This left the couple a little confused as they were struggling to figure out how to explain to their child that she could not go to school for the time being and had to stay in the hospital.

of course.

Soon the couple breathed a sigh of relief.

It would be great if the child didn’t ask.

Maybe the child just thought that this time was the same as countless times before.

I was admitted to the hospital again...

You will be discharged from the hospital in a few days.

……

"Besides, it's just a small request."

A wry smile appeared on Orange's face.

"But……"

They may not even be able to fulfill such a small request for their children.

“It’s the wrong season now.”

Now is not the season for red maple leaves.

What kids want to see...

Of course it’s the beautiful, eye-catching maple red.

……

"Her body is not able to leave the hospital..."

Orange's brows were tightly furrowed.

“Not to mention long distance travel.”

This request of the child is simple and difficult...

It's really difficult in this inappropriate season.

She and the child's father were at a loss.

Where can they find maple leaves for their children that will only turn red after a few months?

……

Mother Xiao also frowned.

She thought of the plum blossoms that bloomed all year round in her yard.

If it were a maple leaf...

The child's wish will be fulfilled.

Unfortunately, there is no such coincidence.

……

"...That child likes maple leaves..."

Mother Xiao murmured.

There are some rare preferences.

Children, especially little girls, basically like colorful and fragrant flowers.

How can I like maple leaves?

of course.

Maple leaves are also very beautiful.

In autumn, the red maple leaves all over the mountains are truly stunning.

……

"Yes."

Orange pursed his lips.

“We also learned about it for the first time.”

Is it their fault?
Or is it the child's sudden preference?
……

"You told the child that it would take several months for the maple leaves to turn red... and that she couldn't see it until she was discharged from the hospital?"

Xiao's mother suddenly thought that this might become a catalyst for her child to want to get better quickly and be discharged from the hospital.

……

Orange looked a little stunned.

There was some hesitation between his eyebrows.

……

"what happened?"

Xiao's mother was puzzled.

There should be nothing wrong with what she said, right?

……

"Baby……"

Orange suddenly clenched his hands.

She looked at Xiao's mother with confusion in her eyes.

"Is she..."

"What did you find?"

……

Mother Xiao was stunned.

Found...what?
“…..You mean…”

It took Xiao's mother a few seconds to react to what Orange said.

"Why do you say that?"

Mother Xiao looked solemn.

"Didn't you hide it from her?"

"Did she hear your conversation?"

"still……"

"The doctors and nurses revealed their secrets in front of her?"

……

“I don’t know…” Orange’s fingertips turned white.

His lips trembled slightly.

"We only talked about this after we left the ward..."

How could they discuss the child's condition in front of the child?
"...Didn't we notice..."

Orange became uncertain again.

The whole person was shaking with anxiety.

……

"Don't worry."

Xiao's mother reached out and held Orange's shoulder.

"Don't panic."

"Speak slowly."

"What happened yesterday?"

"What did the child tell you?"

"How's she doing?"

"Is there something wrong?"

It is impossible to hide things from such a young child.

If there really is something unusual, Orange and the others will definitely be able to discover it... right?

They will definitely be able to find the oranges from before.

But during this period, the couple was overwhelmed, worried, and exhausted because of their child's illness...

It’s really hard to say.

……

Orange swallowed hard.

She touched her neck.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable.

……

Orange coughed softly a few times.

She licked her lips.

Finally, she made a sound.

……

Last night, she bent down and tucked the quilt for the child.

She winked at the child who looked over.

"Baby, go to sleep."

"Mom and Dad are right next to us, just call them if you have any problem."

……

After a few seconds, the child slowly closed his eyes.

Orange smiled and tidied the hair that fell on the child's forehead.

She looked at the child's face.

His expression gradually became calm.

……

Just when Orange thought the child was asleep and wanted to turn around and leave -
Ok?
Orange bowed his head.

The child's hand stretched out from the quilt.

Seems to want to grab her clothes.

But because the child was not strong enough, the clothes slipped from his fingertips.

……

Despite this, Orange still noticed the child's actions.

She immediately looked at the child.

……

The child opened his eyes at some point.

Looking straight at her.

……

Orange laughed immediately.

She reached out and grabbed the child's hand, put it back into the quilt, bent down, leaned close to the child and whispered, "What's wrong, baby?"

"Is there a problem?"

……

The child opened his big black eyes.

On the child's thin little face, these eyes are particularly big.

The emotion in his eyes was clear.

……

Orange saw the child's hesitation.

She felt a little confused.

She said more softly, "Tell Mom."

"Do you want to go to the bathroom?"

The child is very shy.

I feel embarrassed every time I have to go to the toilet.

……

The child shook his head.

……

Oranges are not a surprise.

After all, she had just taken the child to the toilet before putting him to bed.

So……

Why did the child call her?
Orange had no clue.

……

"what happened?"

Orange reached out and touched the child's forehead, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?!"

Orange felt a little worried.

"I'll call a doctor for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Orange reached out to press the bell.

……

"Mother."

The child's voice was weak and a little hoarse.

……

Orange heard it.

She immediately looked at the child.

"Ah."

"Mom is here."

……

An almost unnoticeable, faint light slowly lit up in the child's big eyes, "I want to see maple leaves."

……

Maple leaf?

Orange was stunned.

Want to see maple leaves...

This is a... totally unexpected... request...

……

There was even a moment when Orange wondered if he had heard it wrong.
"You want to see maple leaves?"

Orange confirmed to the child.
