Chapter 467: Help Me Deliver My Schoolbag
Li Xuan suddenly choked on her words.
How had Si Rong harmed her?
"This is a long story," Li Xuan simply sat on the edge of the bed and detailed Si Rong's evil deeds, "Back then, we were in the same dormitory. Relying on her good family background, she deliberately took us to eat crab just to make a fool of us, and she even gave me the old shoes and clothes she had worn, just like she was giving alms to a beggar."
These small details had always remained in her mind, jumping out from time to time to sting her.
Liang Yu:...
When she had nothing to eat and nothing to wear, she had so hoped for someone like that to use delicious food to make a fool of her.
If it was like that, then Si Rong hating her mother could also be considered to have found a reason.
People say love me, love my dog, but in fact, there is also hate me, hate my dog.
Si Rong detested Li Xuan, so she would certainly also detest her children by extension.
No wonder Shen Yuan left this home so easily.
Liang Yu pondered for a moment, "Mom, I'm hungry. Go out and buy me something to eat."
"Okay." Li Xuan knew that Si Rong's daughter lived next door, so she specifically bought some sumptuous food for her daughter, thinking to herself that she must not let Si Rong outdo her.
Braised pork, cabbage and meat dumplings, and fish.
The young nurse saw it, entered the ward, and reprimanded her, "Your daughter has external injuries. Didn't I tell you to keep her on a light diet?"
Li Xuan:...
She saw Si Rong enter the ward carrying a bowl of millet porridge to feed her daughter, and she even closed the ward door.
"Yes, yes, I'll remember it this time," Li Xuan said ingratiatingly.
Liang Yu knew it would soon be time for school to end, so she sent Li Xuan away, "Mom, you go back and rest first. I can take care of myself."
"Mm, I'll leave in a bit." Li Xuan deliberately sat at the doorway to eat the braised pork. Hmph, the food in her house was now no worse than in Si Rong's house!
Liang Yu:...
She didn't know why, but she felt it was a bit embarrassing to have a mother like this.
After finally waiting for Li Xuan to leave, she saw Jiang Sinian enter the ward next door through the transparent panel above the door.
She loosened her hair a bit, then waited behind the door, watching the movements next door at all times.
She heard the words, "I'm leaving now, you stinky girl, get well soon."
She opened the door, bumped right into Jiang Sinian, and then collapsed.
Jiang Sinian was startled. He took a step back, saw Liang Yu close her eyes without reacting, and hurriedly called for a nurse.
Two nurses on duty hurried over and brought Liang Yu back to her ward.
"What happened?" Si Rong asked as she came out of the room.
Jiang Sinian briefly explained the situation to her.
"You wait at the door first, Mom will go in and take a look." Perhaps because of Li Xuan, Si Rong was extra guarded against people around her.
However, the fact that this young girl had let the doctor see Si Yu first in the emergency room yesterday gave Si Rong a fairly good impression of her, though it couldn't be ruled out that she was faking it.
Just like Li Xuan, who could pretend for as long as twenty years for a purpose.
Inside the ward, Liang Yu slowly woke up.
"Your body is very hot, you must have had a high fever again, which is why you fainted," a nurse said while measuring her temperature.
Liang Yu shook her head, "I'm fine."
She saw Si Rong and managed to pull out a smile, "Hello, Auntie."
"Hello. My son accidentally knocked you over just now, so I apologize on his behalf. You can also check if there is any discomfort in your body; any necessary examinations can be done, and we will cover the costs."
Her words were strictly business.
Liang Yu could hear the distance in her tone.
"Auntie, it's fine. It's not Jiang Sinian's fault; it's my own physical condition. There's no need for any examinations."
Liang Yu's voice was soft, and the request she made was hard to refuse, "I just wanted to ask Jiang Sinian, since I'm hospitalized now, could he help me bring my schoolbag to the hospital?"
With the high school entrance exam approaching, this request was reasonable.
Si Rong thought about it and agreed.
"Then get some good rest."
Returning to the ward, she sternly called Jiang Sinian to her side, "Stay away from that girl in the future."
If she hadn't guessed wrong, this girl named Liang Yu should be Li Xuan's biological daughter.
Anyway, whether it was her adopted daughter or biological daughter, it was best to stay far away from them.
Jiang Sinian frowned, "Didn't you just agree on my behalf to deliver the schoolbag for her?"
"You bring her schoolbag home, and I will deliver it to her myself."
"Okay."
Jiang Sinian knew that his mother must be doing it for his own good.
When he went to school to get the schoolbag for Liang Yu, he happened to run into Shen Chi, who was about to get it for her.
"What are you doing?" Shen Chi asked with some hostility.
Jiang Sinian was confused, "Classmate Liang Yu asked me to help bring her schoolbag to the hospital. Or you can go deliver it."
That would be perfect, and it would save his mom the trouble.
Although Shen Chi did want to do that, since it was what Xiao Yu had instructed, he didn't want to act on his own, otherwise Xiao Yu would be angry.
He handed the schoolbag to Jiang Sinian, "Then I'll trouble you."
Jiang Sinian took the schoolbag and then rode his bike home.
Li Mu rode his bike to catch up with him, "Brother Nian! I'm going to your place to hang out!"
"Another day, my sister is sick and hospitalized."
"Huh? Then what about my younger sister? Let me go with you to take a look." Li Mu wanted to go see, although he had already decided to like Jiang Yue, after all, Jiang Siyu was also a girl he quite liked.
"Don't go and cause trouble," Jiang Sinian pedaled faster twice, "go home and play by yourself."
"Wait," Li Mu asked him, "I won't pine after your sister, because I have a new target. For the sake of our brotherhood, will you help me or not?"
"Who is so unlucky?" Jiang Sinian said irritably.
Li Mu muttered with dissatisfaction, "Why are you talking like that, brother? I quite like that little girl who is your neighbor, Jiang Yue. Tell me, does she like a wealthy, handsome guy like me?"
Before he could wait for Jiang Sinian's answer, his bike was bumped by Jiang Sinian, and he almost flew off his bike.
"Jiang Sinian! Why aren't you watching the road while riding?" Li Mu was a bit shaken, "I am the only seedling of our Li family; if you break me, it'll be a big problem!"
Jiang Sinian braked, his toes touching the ground, "You are not allowed to pine after her."
"Hehe, why? I am so dashing and handsome, could it be that I'm not good enough for her?"
"You're not good enough!" Jiang Sinian inexplicably felt a wave of anger in his chest, though he didn't know what he was angry about.
"Both of them are my sisters; in any case, you are not allowed to pine after either of them!" After realizing his tone was too stiff, Jiang Sinian patted his shoulder, "Li Mu, a playboy like you isn't suitable for them. We are brothers, and I am very seriously suggesting that if you like to play around, find someone who likes to play around just like you."
Li Mu was angry and kicked the bicycle over, "Jiang Sinian! What you're saying is meaningless. It's one thing for you to protect your sister, but what? By what right are you hogging Jiang Yue too? Could it be that you have those kinds of filthy thoughts yourself, which is why you..."
The two of them wrestled together.
Li Mu had been pampered since he was a child, so naturally, he was no match for Jiang Sinian; within a few moves, he was beaten by Jiang Sinian until he was howling.
Standing up with the posture of a victor, Jiang Sinian turned around and saw Jiang Yue; she was standing quietly behind the two of them, not knowing how long she had been standing there.
