She startled Fade and Mindy, who was just about to get into it. They were frozen in place. Then, they quickly moved away from each other and coughed, hiding their embarrassment.
Mindy blushed. She looked at Fish and said, "Fish, I'll cook now. Have some fruit first."
She quickly took an apple and handed it to Fish as she spoke.
Fish took the apple and said, "Well, Mom, please hurry.I'll play with Brother Superman for a while."
Mindy smiled at Fade and said, "Fade, is it okay for you to stay for dinner?"
Fade nodded and said, "Yes, it's my pleasure to eat the food you cook, Sister Mindy."
Upon hearing his words, Mindy smiled and turned around. She headed to the kitchen and prepared dinner.
Whereas Fish, who was holding an apple, approached Fade with a curious look. She asked, "What were you doing with my mommy just now?"
Fade's facial expression changed upon hearing that. He couldn't help but cough and said, "Well, nothing. I was just trying to get rid of the sand in your mother's eyes."
Fish said with a naive look, "Brother Superman, you're so kind. Whenever my mother has dust trapped in her eyes in the future, I'll let you blow it. Me too."
"Well, hmm... Okay, okay!" Fade could only nod. Then, he changed the subject, "Fish, this apple is too big for you. Let me slice it for you."
"Okay. Please slice it into small pieces and pierce them with toothpicks for me, Brother Superman." Fish said sweetly.
Fade said, "Okay, I'll do it right away."
He sliced the apple for Fish and played with her for a while. Soon, Mindy had dinner ready. She placed four simple dishes on the table. Although they looked very simple and bland, they tasted good. Fade knew that Sister Mindy must have learned cooking before.
The three of them chatted and laughed until they finished their meal. Then, Fade waved his hand and bid his farewell.
Mindy and Fish waved goodbye to Fade at the door. Then, they headed back into the house.
Seeing the car leave, Mindy looked gloomy. She sighed softly.
Meanwhile, Fish's tender voice sounded, "Mom, you don't want Brother Superman to go, do you?"
Mindy was shocked, a strange blush flashed across her face. She quickly waved her hand and said, "No, I don't. Fish, why did you say that?"
Fish looked at Mindy with a serious face and said, "Mom, it's because you look different when you're with Brother Superman. Besides, you were hugging each other and were about to kiss just now!"
Mindy did not expect Fish to know what had happened between them. She instantly flushed, "Fish, who told you this! Could it be that Fade..."
Fade drove back home. The villa was empty. His wife, Quin, was not home yet. She had been busy with the cosmetics exhibition, spending a longer time in the company.
After a night's rest, Fade got up early the next day and went to Sincere Medicine Center. He was about to get to work after going in. Suddenly, he received a call from Daphne, "Hello, Doctor Tao, why are you calling so early in the morning?"
Daphne said, "Fade, this is what happened. I was on the night shift last night. In the middle of the night, a patient came to the hospital, looking a little strange. After we've gone through a check-up, we couldn't treat him. The patient's parents were anxious, so I recommended the Sincere Medicine Center to them."
"They should be there soon. Please see if you could help. The patient is young, it's quite pathetic." Daphne said.
Fade said, "I understand. Since he is a patient, as long as he comes over, I will treat him. Don't worry."
"Okay, thank you." Daphne thanked him and hung up the phone.
After Fade took note of the matter, he informed the staff member. Then, he got down to working.
The reputation of the Sincere Medicine Center was good. Although patients were chosen specifically, there were a lot of people who came for medication. Not long after the Center opened, there was a line of people queueing up in front of the door.
Fade urged everyone to keep the pace up as he looked around for some complicated and unique cases that the staff member would not be able to solve.
Just as Fade was busy with his work, all of a sudden, there was a harsh sound of the car horn drawing closer.
