After persuading Ningji, Hyuga Kai chose to reopen the business the next day. The closure for more than a month did not affect the clinic's business too much. At least on the first day of opening, he did not stop seeing patients.
I was busy until the evening, but finally no patients came. Hinata Kei sat at the desk, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, but the tea inside was already cold.
Putting down the tea cup, Hinata Kai turned around to feel Hinata Haru behind him, and found that she was still in a daze, so he stood up and made two cups of tea.
Passing one of the cups to Hinata Haru, Hinata Kei said: "If you are tired, sit down and take a good rest. Seeing that you have always been lack of energy, why don't we have a chat?"
In fact, he had already noticed that something was wrong with Hinata Haru today. He had been in a daze from time to time since working in the morning. As a result, at the end of the day, he was almost alone handling patients.
Seeing the hot tea being handed to her, Hinata Chun came back to her senses. After a moment of hesitation, she sat across from Hinata Kei. He drank the hot tea in his hand quietly without saying a word.
Hinata Kei was not in a hurry. After Hinata Haru stopped drinking tea, he showed a gentle smile and said, "What happened? If you need anything, you can tell me. Maybe I can help you."
"You know, I've always been good at enlightening others."
Hinata Haru put down the tea cup, remained silent for a moment and said, "I went to the elder yesterday to report on your persuasion to Neji."
"I know, I asked you to go yesterday. Did you make the great elder angry?"
Hinata Haru frowned and said, "Aren't you worried? If I fully explain what happened yesterday, you may be punished."
She originally thought that Hinata Kai might be uneasy after hearing her words. But he didn't expect that Hinata Kei didn't care about himself. He cared more about her?
Ri Xiangchun put his hands under the table and kept entangled with them, his thoughts were confused.
Hinata Kei shook his head and said, "It would be a lie to say that I'm not worried."
"Then you can still operate here so calmly today?"
"Everyone has their own difficulties, right? You have your responsibilities, can I still stop you?"
"How will you know if you don't try? If you asked me not to tell you in advance, I might not report in detail." Ri Xiangchun said.
Hinata Kei shook his head and said: "Haru, you are not my servant. I have no right to ask you to do anything, and I have no right to prevent you from doing anything."
"I don't know what you think, but at least you and I are equal to me."
"You stand behind me and you are my assistant. When you help me, I am naturally responsible for protecting you. You sit opposite me and you are my patient. If you need it, I have to enlighten you. .”
Hinata Haru's hands under the table were twisting and turning faster and faster. Listening to Hinata Kai's words, she didn't know why she felt a little sore.
Lowering his head slightly, Ri Xiangchun said with a trembling voice: "I'm sorry."
"Raise your head, Haru." Hinata Kei said, "You did nothing wrong, so there is no need to apologize."
"But I have been reporting your information to the Great Elder..."
"I said, this is your responsibility, this can't be wrong."
Hinata Haru raised her head and looked at Hinata Kei who kept smiling in front of her. For some reason, she suddenly felt that Hinata Kei must be very tired, right?
I have to face so many things with a smile every day. As a Hinata, my most important eye is blind again.
What's even more pitiful is that his assistants are still monitoring him, and the Zong family is also very wary of him, thinking that his illness may endanger the caged bird.
Taking a deep breath, Ri Xiangchun became firm and said, "Qi, I don't want to help them anymore."
Hinata Kei clearly felt Hinata Haru's emotional changes, so he said: "Are you sure? You must know that the great elder is very optimistic about you. He regards you as his daughter. But you can't get anything from me. Yes, you are just an assistant."
"Daughter?" Hinata Haru shook her head after hearing this, with a trace of ridicule on her face. She said, "If he really regarded me as his daughter, he wouldn't treat me like a dog, as you said. .”
Recalling the scene that happened yesterday, Hinata Haru felt that he was really ridiculous.
In the past, she always felt that Hinata Yasuhiro rewarded her from time to time, and even gave her the Double Lion Fist, because she was really valued. But yesterday she realized that this was just a means, no different from raising a dog.
A dog can get the attention of its owner most likely because it can please the owner, not anything else.
Although she got nothing from Hinata Kei, Hinata Kei treated her as an assistant sincerely. So she got something more important than any reward.
Thinking of this, Ri Xiangchun stood up directly and said: "It's not like I didn't get anything from you, I got respect!"
Hinata Kei sensed Hinata Haru's actions and words, and he could feel from those subtle emotions that Hinata Haru was not just a whim, but a real choice.
This made Hinata Kei understand that his diagnosis and treatment of Hinata Haru was officially over. Hinata Haru has switched from Hinata Yasuhiro and the Zong family to his side.
From now on, Hinata Yasuhiro's surveillance of him will in turn be used by him.
Hinata Kei stretched out his right hand and handed it to Hinata Haru, saying: "Haru, I now officially invite you to be my assistant. Are you willing?"
Without hesitation, Hinata Haru stretched out her left hand and took Hyuga Kai's right hand. She said, "I do!"
Hinata Kei said: "Thank you, Haru. With your help, I will really be able to relax a lot in the future. At least I don't have to pretend to be myself when I face you anymore, which is really tiring."
Hinata Haru felt a little guilty after hearing this, and was about to apologize, but when he saw Hinata Kai waving his hand, he said: "There is no need to apologize, because we are our own people. In addition, there are some things I need to make clear to you."
"You also know my situation. The Zong family can never rest assured, so one day I will definitely choose to resist."
There was nothing unexpected about Hinata Haru. When she heard what Hyuga Kai said to Neji yesterday, she completely understood it.
Looking at the forehead protector tied on Hinata Kei's head, she said with some worry: "With the existence of caged birds, I'm afraid we have no chance of winning."
"I know, but some things have to be tried, right?" Hinata Kei said, "Don't worry, I'm not a reckless person. I will only take action if I find a solution."
"In the meantime, I need you to speak more kind words for me to the great elders and relax their vigilance."
Hinata Haru said with an extremely serious expression: "I will!"
