Bai Xi hurried forward, only to see an unexpected scene.
Han Mo's right hand clutched a broken piece of glass mirror, blood dripping down the shard, falling onto the bright red bedsheet, conspicuously noticeable.
Bai Han, seeing the blood splattered on the bedsheet, was clearly startled. He immediately let go of the mirror fragment in his hand, covered his ears with both hands, his eyes wide with fear: "Xiao Han didn't mean it, Xiao Han isn't a bad child. Don't hit Xiao Han, please, don't hit Xiao Han..."
Han Mo immediately dropped the glass shard, took a step forward, and gently brushed Bai Han's head with his uninjured left hand: "Don't be afraid, no one will hit Xiao Han, and no one will hurt Xiao Han anymore."
Bai Han slowly calmed down, the terror in his eyes gradually subsiding into a sliver of peace. He looked up at Han Mo and asked with a confused and hesitant voice, "Really?"
Han Mo's phoenix eyes beneath the metal frame revealed an indescribable gentleness: "Mm, not anymore. Then, Xiao Han, will you take today's medicine, okay?"
Bai Han looked up, his large peach blossom eyes filled with a trace of timidity: "But, that medicine is so bitter."
Han Mo smiled slightly, withdrew the hand that had been stroking Bai Han's hair, and pulled out a lollipop from his white coat.
Bai Han's eyes lit up upon seeing the lollipop: "Is this for me?"
Han Mo nodded: "Mm, after you take your medicine, I'll give you this lollipop, how about it?"
Bai Han nodded vigorously: "Mm."
Han Mo glanced at the startled orderly standing beside him and said faintly, "Bring the medicine."
The orderly, who had been scared stiff, quickly handed over the medicine.
Just now, Bai Han had smashed the mirror in the room and refused to take his medicine, showing suicidal tendencies. If Dr. Han hadn't caught the shard with his bare hands, this shard would have likely pierced the patient's chest.
Bai Han very cooperatively drank the medicine handed to him by the orderly, then took a large gulp of water. He turned to look at Han Mo again, and said cautiously, "Um, can I have the lollipop now?"
Han Mo handed the lollipop to Bai Han with his left hand.
Bai Han's face finally broke into a smile upon receiving the lollipop, making the orderly beside him swoon slightly.
Undoubtedly, Bai Han was exceptionally handsome. A slender physique, pale cheeks, beautiful peach blossom eyes, and then paired with such a smile, he was truly endearing.
Unfortunately, he suffered from a strange illness that kept his intelligence at the level of a five or six-year-old. Coupled with apparent past abuse, his emotions were extremely unstable, prone to outbursts and aggression, and he had even displayed suicidal intentions multiple times.
It was truly unfair of heaven. If not for this illness, he would likely have been a rare handsome man.
Seeing him clutch the lollipop tightly in his hand, but making no move to unwrap it, the orderly said, "Xiao Han, do you not know how to open it? Do you want sister to help?"
He showed a stronger aversion to the orderly than to Han Mo. Seeing the orderly lean in, he immediately recoiled warily, clasped his hands together, and carefully protected the lollipop: "No, I won't open it. I want to save this for Xi'er. Xi'er loves lollipops the most."
A simple sentence caused Bai Xi, standing at the doorway, to feel a slight heaviness in her chest, with a warm feeling spreading within her heart.
Although her brother only had the intelligence of a few years old, his love for her was immensely sincere.
And Han Mo... he was truly doing his best to take care of her brother, even to the point of getting injured.
Bai Xi walked into the VIP ward and looked at Han Mo, whose finger was still dripping blood: "Thank you, Dr. Han."
Han Mo looked at Bai Xi: "Miss, you are too polite. Taking care of patients and protecting their lives is what a doctor should do."
Upon seeing Bai Xi suddenly enter the ward, Bai Han immediately showed a look of guardedness and unease: "Who are you? What are you doing here!"
Bai Xi was slightly taken aback.
Her brother didn't recognize her?
It made sense. When their mother took their brother away from the Bai family villa, she was only ten years old, a very small person.
Knowing her brother's current condition, Bai Xi tried her best to show a very gentle smile: "Brother, I'm Xi'er."
Who would have thought that these words would become the trigger? Bai Han hid his body behind Han Mo and shouted loudly, "You're lying! My Xi'er is small, and you're so big, how can you be Xi'er! You're a bad person, a bad person who forcibly separated me and Xi'er, a bad person who killed Xi'er, I want to avenge Xi'er!"
With that, he threw everything on the bed at Bai Xi.
Pillows, blankets, all were thrown at Bai Xi.
Bai Xi stood still, neither dodging nor evading.
Not long after she fell off the cliff, she had entered the dark department, spending six years in killings and battles, four years in Hua Country and two years in foreign territories. She had hovered between life and death countless times to reach her current position.
Over the years, she thought her brother and mother were living well at her maternal grandmother's house, but she never expected that she had underestimated the malice of the people in the Bai family.
Her brother's current rage was something she deserved to bear.
The items on the bed were quickly thrown. Bai Han, without hesitation, grabbed the cup he had just used to drink medicine and threw it at Bai Xi. Bai Xi did not dodge either.
At that moment, a white figure suddenly appeared, blocking in front of her. The cup hit the figure's back and then fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
Bai Xi looked up and saw Han Mo's slightly furrowed brow.
He... seemed to be in a lot of pain.
Han Mo looked at Bai Xi.
His back didn't hurt at all, but he saw the dimness in her eyes at that moment... and his heart ached.
Seeing the cup he threw hit Han Mo, Bai Han was clearly a little scared, like a child who had made a mistake: "Dr. Han, I didn't mean to, I..."
Han Mo turned around with a gentle smile, but his body still shielded Bai Xi: "It's alright. Xiao Han, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something? Shall I ask the orderly sister to buy you something you like?"
Bai Han nodded: "Okay, then can Xiao Han eat that sweet meat, and watery eggs?"
Han Mo: "Of course."
The orderly was very understanding and knew Bai Han's preferences. She immediately turned and went out to buy them.
Bai Han's mood stabilized again.
Seeing the other orderly take out a toy to coax Bai Han, Han Mo said to Bai Xi beside him, "Miss, would you be willing to come to the next room with me to discuss your brother's condition?"
Bai Xi nodded.
To the right of the VIP ward was a small room, originally a companion room, where Han Mo now lived. Pulling back the curtains allowed one to see everything in the ward.
Han Mo looked at Bai Han, who was sitting on the bed waiting for his food, his eyes anxious.
"Miss, you don't need to be too sad. Your brother's current intelligence is about eight years old, and his psychological age is even as young as four. His perception is different from ours. You can try to make him believe you first, and after he gets used to it, you can slowly tell him your identity, giving him a process of acceptance. As for the treatment I mentioned, it might need to wait until his emotions are stable..."
Bai Xi responded faintly, but in the next second, she grabbed Han Mo's right wrist.
Han Mo's pupils constricted for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure, his face wearing a gentle and calm smile: "Miss, what are you doing?"
