Chapter 265: Entering the Operating Room

"Really?"

Jiang Siyu wanted to go, but she was a bit worried, "Then can we make it back before class starts this afternoon?"

Looking at the gentle dimples on her cheeks, Fu Yang couldn't help but let a smile appear on his own face, "Of course we can."

As soon as school let out, Jiang Siyu told her brother to go home on his own, saying she would go home with Jiang Yue in a while.

Jiang Sinian, with his arms around a few good brothers, just nodded without giving it much thought.

Jiang Siyu jogged out of the school and saw Fu Yang waiting for her on his bicycle, one leg propped on the ground.

She sat on the back seat, "Let's go!"

"Fu Yang, thank you for taking me to the hospital to see my mom today. Can I treat you to lunch?"

Fu Yang nodded, "Okay."

As the two walked away, Yao Xiaotang stood there with a few female classmates, gossiping.

"Are they in a puppy-love relationship?"

"Don't even mention it, I think Fu Yang is actually quite handsome, and that bicycle he rides isn't cheap; you can't even buy one in Huaiyang."

"Is it very expensive?" Yao Xiaotang's focus was on this.

"Yeah," the female classmate told her, "Even if you had the money, you wouldn't find a place to buy one, and the clothes he wears are all luxury brands."

Yao Xiaotang didn't understand this, "I don't think it's Metersbonwe; it's not some big brand, is it?"

"You only know about Metersbonwe; he's wearing foreign luxury brands."

The female classmate's disdainful look made Yao Xiaotang feel very uncomfortable inside.

She came from the countryside and didn't know, but no one had told her either.

Why look down on people from the countryside?

Come to think of it, she was becoming increasingly dissatisfied with Lu Fei; his mother was always finding fault, forcing the two of them to keep their relationship underground.

Yet she wanted a watch, and Lu Fei was so stingy he wouldn't buy it for her.

This relationship was a total loss for her.

If she had found someone like Jiang Sinian or a rich young master like Fu Yang, they definitely would have bought it for her long ago.

That dead girl Jiang Siyu really had good luck; it was one thing that her family was rich, but anyone she hooked up with was rich too.

Before, she hadn't thought much of Fu Yang, but now that she knew the bike he rode and the clothes he wore were luxury goods, Yao Xiaotang felt he was actually quite handsome.

In the future, she could get closer to him.

Anyway, he hadn't explicitly confessed to Jiang Siyu.

Fu Yang rode the bike fast, and Jiang Siyu, afraid he would cause her to fall and get hurt, had no choice but to grab the clothes at his waist.

"Ride slower~ Ah!"

With a sudden hard brake, Jiang Siyu's nose bumped into his back; the pain was sharp and unbearable, and Jiang Siyu raised her hand and punched him.

"┗|｀O′|┛Ouch~~~"

Fu Yang almost died on the spot from the force of that punch.

"Jiang Siyu, are you even a girl!"

"I'm not! You are, okay?" Seeing they were almost at the hospital, Jiang Siyu jumped off the bike, "I'll take you back when we return to school."

Fu Yang:...

He didn't dare to retort, honestly parked the bicycle to the side, and followed behind Jiang Siyu into the hospital.

Si Rong was hospitalized on the third floor; when Jiang Siyu reached the second floor, she saw a familiar back standing outside the Department of Hematology.

It was exactly Bai Mo, who had asked for leave today.

Could it be that Bai Mo was sick?

Just as Jiang Siyu was about to go up and ask, she saw an old woman appear beside Bai Mo.

"Granddaughter, the money for this paternity test was spent in vain; you are definitely my biological granddaughter!" It cost over a thousand yuan, almost enough for her expenses for a whole year.

Yet the Bai couple hadn't even blinked an eye before paying.

Bai Mo didn't want to engage with her and turned her face to the other side.

Jiang Siyu was shocked.

Bai Mo? Paternity test? Li Xuan?

She had heard her mother talk about Bai Mo's background before, but she never expected it would involve that wicked old woman Li Xuan.

They had actually done a paternity test.

Her heart was pounding fast, and she pulled Fu Yang up to the third floor.

In the ward, the doctor was explaining the pre-operative precautions to Si Rong.

"Juzi, why are you here?"

Si Rong was a bit surprised, and seeing Fu Yang following behind her, she asked, "Have you two eaten after school?"

"We ate—no, we haven't. Auntie, Siyu said she would treat me to a meal in a bit."

Si Rong knew the children had their own way of getting along, so she said, "Okay, how did you get here?"

"Fu Yang has a bicycle," Jiang Siyu sat down beside her mother and rubbed affectionately against her shoulder like a little cat, "Mom, I want to take leave to accompany you for the surgery."

She couldn't focus on class at a time like this.

She had expected her mother to object, but to her surprise, Si Rong agreed.

"Okay, you come with your brother."

Si Rong thought that even if it were just for her two children, she would definitely strive to come out of the operating room.

After talking with her mother for a while, Si Rong urged her to go fulfill her promise and take Fu Yang to eat.

"There's a stone-pot fish place diagonally across from the hospital; it's quite good. You take Fu Yang there."

"I know, Mom, I won't let him go hungry."

Before leaving, Jiang Siyu reluctantly kissed her mother on the forehead before she departed.

She didn't mention the incident earlier on the second floor involving Bai Mo's family and Li Xuan, to avoid making her mother worry.

After exiting the hospital, Jiang Siyu tested it out; she could ride Fu Yang's bicycle, though her legs couldn't quite reach the ground.

But it wasn't a big problem.

"I'll ride it first in a moment, then you run a few steps and jump onto the back seat, you hear me?"

Fu Yang:...

"I heard you."

When he successfully sat on the back seat, the bicycle swayed violently twice.

However, it was quickly steadied by Jiang Siyu.

"Is your nickname Orange?" Fu Yang asked.

Jiang Siyu hummed in acknowledgment, then added, "But my nickname isn't something just anyone can use. You grew up abroad so you wouldn't know, but we people of Huaguo take this very seriously."

"Then can I call you that?" Upon hearing it was important, Fu Yang wanted to call her that even more.

"No, you can't." Jiang Siyu heartlessly rejected him, "This is something only family and very close people can call me."

For example, family members like Dad, Mom, and her brother, or close friends who grew up with her like Jiang Yue and Bai Mo.

Fu Yang lowered his head in disappointment.

He wanted to call her that.

"Right, you still haven't treated me to a meal?" Fu Yang looked at that stone pot fish place, which seemed to have been passed by.

"I don't know how to brake!! What kind of bike is this!"

Fu Yang:...

Just like that, Jiang Siyu rode the bicycle all the way back to school, only stopping after crashing into a wall.

Then the two of them ate a bowl of fish rice noodles each in the school cafeteria.

"They both have the word 'fish' in them, so it's about the same, don't you think?" Jiang Siyu asked him.

Fu Yang:... "Right."

The day Si Rong had her surgery was an overcast day, somewhat muggy, as if a heavy rain could fall at any moment.

Jiang Siyu and her brother Jiang Sinian both took leave and waited outside the operating room.

Ever since Mom was wheeled into the operating room by the nurse, Dad's expression had been dazed; when the eldest uncle and uncle spoke to him, he remained sullen, as if he had lost his soul.
