The next morning, Li Yi wrote the words "puppy" on a piece of paper and stuck it on his sister's forehead while she was sound asleep. He then covered her with the blanket and left home, driving his BMW towards the People's Hospital.
In front of a small building to the north of the People's Hospital, a beautiful nurse was pushing a wheelchair, accompanying Yun Zhenzhen as she watched the sunrise.
Beside the nurse, Qian Hu, the guard of Yun Haiyong, was chatting enthusiastically with her, occasionally making the nurse laugh with his jokes.
Li Yi knew that the nurse was named Bao Shucui, a special nurse hired by Yun Haiyong for his daughter, who was very capable and took good care of Yun Zhenzhen. Qian Hu and Bao Shucui had been getting along for a long time, and there was a mutual attraction between them.
"Uncle!" When Yun Zhenzhen saw Li Yi, her face, which had recovered somewhat, immediately lit up with a smile. She struggled to raise her arm, trying to wave.
"Zhenzhen, Xiaohuzi, Xiaocui, how are you all?" Li Yi quickly walked over and nodded at the three of them.
Although Li Yi was younger than Qian Hu and Bao Shucui, he called them Xiaohuzi and Xiaocui, and they didn't feel embarrassed at all. After all, he was Commander Yun's brother, and even Yun Zhenzhen called him "uncle"!
"Brother Yi, why did you come so early to treat the young miss?" Qian Hu asked.
"There are many things to do today, so I came early to see Zhenzhen to avoid being delayed by trivial matters and affecting her treatment," Li Yi said.
"That's really hard work for Mr. Li!" Bao Shucui said.
Li Yi replied, "Xiaocui, you're not much older, so just follow Xiaohuzi and call me Brother Yi!"
Bao Shucui's face turned red, feeling a bit embarrassed to call him that, as their relationship wasn't yet clear. But she couldn't refuse Li Yi's kindness, so she softly said, "Brother Yi!"
"Sister Cui, you're calling me brother, but I'm the younger one!" Yun Zhenzhen said somewhat unwillingly.
Li Yi said, "If you want, you can call me brother too, and we'll address each other differently from your father."
"No, you're my savior, and Dad said I should treat you as an elder," Yun Zhenzhen shook her head and then added, "Uncle, can you push me for a walk? Let them stay here and chat. I don't want to be a third wheel!"
"Sure!" Li Yi walked behind Yun Zhenzhen's wheelchair.
"Is that okay?" Bao Shucui was reluctant to let Yun Zhenzhen out of her sight, as she was the special nurse and should be with her 24/7.
"Don't worry, although you're Zhenzhen's nurse, I'm her doctor. I can do everything you can. With me here, Zhenzhen will be fine," Li Yi said.
"Alright... thank you," Bao Shucui said, a bit shy.
Because of her duty, every time she and Qian Hu were together, Yun Zhenzhen had to be with them. She had been looking forward to this opportunity to be alone with him for a long time. Although they couldn't do much when alone, they could at least talk intimately without a third person listening.
Li Yi pushed Yun Zhenzhen to another shrub area and casually asked, "Zhenzhen, how are you feeling today?"
"Great!" When it came to her health, Yun Zhenzhen's face immediately lit up with joy. "Look, I can use my waist strength to sit in the wheelchair today!"
"Oh? Let me see how straight you can sit!" Li Yi gently adjusted Yun Zhenzhen's body to make her sit straighter. Although she said she could use her strength, her waist was still weak and couldn't straighten up.
Yun Zhenzhen giggled when Li Yi touched her, feeling ticklish.
"Is there anything else? Tell me everything!" Li Yi said.
"Yes, I didn't need a catheter today!" Yun Zhenzhen said proudly.
Her face then turned red, as the topic of catheters was a bit too intimate. She realized it was inappropriate after saying it.
"Oh, you can control your bladder and bowel movements now?" Li Yi didn't find it strange, treating the topic as naturally as eating or sleeping.
"Um-hum," Yun Zhenzhen nodded and then softly asked, "Uncle, do you think I can really recover?"
"What, don't you trust your uncle's medical skills?" Li Yi pushed Yun Zhenzhen up a hill, from where they could see the sunrise spreading red light across the land.
"But everyone says it's a terminal illness," Yun Zhenzhen said somewhat dejectedly.
"Don't worry, I said you'll be fine, so you will be fine!" Li Yi patted his chest.
"Uncle, when I get better, I will definitely repay you. I'll do whatever you ask." Yun Zhenzhen said seriously.
"Ha ha, no need. I said I won't charge any fees. I'm treating you out of respect for your grandfather," Li Yi said.
"That's different. My grandfather is my grandfather, and I am me. You're saving me. Uncle, do you know, many times I thought it would be better if I died quickly, but I was afraid that if I died, my parents would worry..."
"Zhenzhen, you must never think like that. Your parents love you, so no matter what, you must never give up hope. This is not just for yourself, but for them as well."
"But I've already given up... until you appeared... Uncle, if I get better, I will definitely repay you. I heard you're very skilled in martial arts, even more than my father? Can I be your disciple? Or even a little maid would be fine. I know many sects are very strict about taking disciples, so being a little maid would be enough for me." Yun Zhenzhen said weakly.
"Ha ha, if you want to follow me, I don't mind," Li Yi said.
"Really?" Yun Zhenzhen's eyes sparkled, "Then it's settled. I'll be your little maid. It doesn't matter if you don't teach me martial arts; I just want to help you with tea and water, and clean your room every day."
"Ha ha, in that case, I'll specially appoint you as the special assistant to the chairman of the Yuxue Group, responsible for daily affairs. Can you do it?" Li Yi asked.
"Eh? What kind of assistant?" Yun Zhenzhen was surprised.
"Special assistant to the chairman. Our group is planning to invest in Tangshui City, and the initial work will be quite complicated and tiring. I need a lot of help. However, I'm a very domineering chairman. Once you take the job, you must completely follow my orders and not resign. Can you do that?"
"I... I'm in this condition, can I really be a special assistant? Are you just comforting me?" Yun Zhenzhen asked, wide-eyed.
"They say you're about to recover, why would I comfort you? If you don't want to come, that's fine too. After all, I have very high standards for my assistants. I won't hire anyone who lacks responsibility or diligence."
Yun Zhenzhen blinked and stammered, "I'm willing to be your assistant. I'll do whatever you ask, and I'll follow your orders. I'm not afraid of hard work or tiredness; I'm just afraid... I'm afraid I won't do well in this condition."
"There's nothing you can't do. If you can't do it once, does that mean you can't do it forever? The key is whether you're willing to put in the effort. Alright, Comrade Yun Zhenzhen, I now formally appoint you as the special assistant to the chairman of the Yuxue Group. During your term, you must completely follow the chairman's orders and put your heart into all your work. Do you agree?"
"I agree!" Yun Zhenzhen nodded happily.
At that moment, the wheelchair hit a protruding stone, causing the entire vehicle to shake. Yun Zhenzhen's body jolted, and then a trickle of water started flowing from the wheelchair.
The newly appointed assistant's face turned red, and she stammered, "Uncle, I'm, I'm sorry."
"Huh, what did you do wrong?" Li Yi asked.
Yun Zhenzhen didn't dare to look at Li Yi, her face turning even redder.
"Alright, now you need to execute the chairman's first order. You must not say sorry when you haven't done anything wrong. It's fine to say it to me, but don't say it to others, as the assistant's image represents our company."
"But... but..." Yun Zhenzhen wanted to say something but hesitated.
In her current state, what image could she possibly have?
"Don't worry about it, it's just a small accident. It seems you still can't control your bladder. Let's go back to the ward and clean you up," Li Yi said calmly.
"Thank you," Yun Zhenzhen said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's.
