The ward was a double room.

Lying on the other bed was a middle-aged man snoring loudly, which may have affected the child's sleep quality. Yuan Jiuwan slept very unsteadily, his brows were slightly wrinkled, the baby's fat cheeks were swollen, and it looked like he was having a nightmare with closed eyes.

Chen Caixing was very distressed while looking at him by the bed, the younger brother not only was in such a tragic accident, but also lost his mom. He couldn't help but touch his hair and whisper: "Brother is here, sleep well."

Like a loving old father.

"Woo, I'm scared." Yuan Jiuwan murmured softly.

The old father Chen Caixing patted the kid's chest gently with one hand and coaxed him to sleep in a low voice.

The car accident got on the local news the next day, and the intersection surveillance video also circulated on the Internet. The driver of the large truck fainted because of a sudden heart attack, and unintentionally slammed his foot on the accelerator. This caused the accident and the driver died on the spot.

Afterwards, someone talked about using his entire life's worth of luck, saying that fortunately there was a brother in a daze in the car in front of him, otherwise he would have been hit too. Some people also talked about the victims of the car accident. Among them, the most discussed was the mother who used her body to protect the child's safety and died on the spot.

In the morning, the police came to visit the hospital to ask about the identity of Yuan Jiuwan's mother since no ID was found on her body. They wanted to get some information from the boy so Chen Caixing accompanied them. When one of the policemen asked about his mother, Yuan Jiuwuan drilled into Chen Caixing's arms, shaking with shock.

It was even more difficult to ask who his father was and where he lived.

"The child was traumatized" The doctor sympathized with Yuan Jiuwan and told the police: "From last night to now, he has only been with his brother."

Chen Caixing hugged Yuan Jiuwan and patted him on the back, saying: "Comrade police, let's go out to talk."

At the end of the day, he was not Yuan Jiuwan's real brother, and the kid's family situation was also unknown to him, thus he made up a lie: "I met Xiao Jiu in the playground once. He was lost so I stayed with him for a while and left when his mother found him. I didn't expect to meet him again."

"I don't know the situation of Xiao Jiu's family, I only know that Xiao Jiu is called Yuan Jiuwan."

The police couldn't ask about the situation and Yuan Jiuwan's current mental state was not suitable to be sent to a shelter, after all it was better to not put more pressure on the kid. "Mr. Chen, you know what happened to the child and he cannot leave you now. Could you please take care of him for a while? we will find his relatives as soon as possible."

"It's no problem." Chen Caixing agreed, saying his address, ID number and workplace.

After the police finished taking notes, they were relieved. "Thank you very much, Mr. Chen. We may have to visit you regularly in the future and trouble you."

"It's no trouble at all, it's for Xiao Jiu sake."

After the police left, the doctor checked Yuan Jiuwan's body and everything was fine. Yuan Jiuwan looked at Chen Caixing, "Brother, I don't want to be in the hospital, I want to go home."

This little brother was too pitiful.

Chen Caixing regarded Xiao Jiu as homesick and missing his mother, so he touched the child's head and coaxed with a soft tone: "Will you go back to your brother's house first?"
