Chapter 48: Su Xueya's Mother's Plea
Su Xueya had also been injured before. I looked at the bandage on her arm and asked with concern, "How is it? Are you okay?"
Su Xueya shook her head slightly without speaking.
However, someone unexpected came—Su Xueya's mother.
Seeing her mother arrive, Su Xueya was clearly surprised and hurriedly stood up, saying, "Mom, why are you here?"
Su Xueya's mother didn't speak; she looked at me and then at the wound on Su Xueya's arm. Su Xueya seemed to be quite afraid of her mother and kept her head down, not daring to speak.
Su Xueya's mother frowned and said to Su Xueya, "You go out for a moment. I have something to say to Yang Yun!"
Su Xueya looked at her mother in confusion. She originally wanted to ask something, but seeing her mother's bad expression, she didn't dare to speak and left with her head down.
I hurriedly said, "Auntie, I don't know what you want to talk to me about?"
Su Xueya's mother said, "To be honest, I don't want to interfere in you young people's affairs, but I have already lost one daughter. Now I only have Xiaoya as my daughter, and I don't want to experience the feeling of losing a daughter again. Do you understand?"
Auntie's words pierced my heart like needles. It was true that because of me, Su Xueya's family hadn't been doing very well these days. I lowered my head, bit my lip, and didn't dare to speak, just nodded slightly.
Su Xueya's mother continued, "I know you're a good kid, and I know it's not your fault, but I beg you, can you stay away from our family? Just consider it my plea! We're just ordinary people and can't afford such turmoil!"
Then Su Xueya's mother knelt directly on the ground. I was stunned and hurriedly struggled to get up, but my body couldn't do it now. I said to the auntie on the ground in pain, "Auntie, what are you doing? Please get up quickly!"
Su Xueya's mother pleaded with me, "Really, Auntie begs you, stay away from Xiaoya. I only have one daughter left. If I lose this daughter too, I won't be able to go on living. Please understand a mother's feelings!"
"I'm sorry, Auntie, it's all because of me. Please don't say any more, I beg you to get up. I promise you!" I said to Auntie in pain.
Hearing my promise, Su Xueya's mother's expression softened a lot. She slowly stood up and looked at me, saying, "I hope you can keep your word. Our family will be grateful to you!"
After saying this, she left. Watching Auntie's departing figure, I felt very uncomfortable. The reason for all these things was that I wasn't strong enough. If I could be like those in the upper class, how would these things happen? And I had clearly promised Su Xueyan to take care of her family. I didn't know why I had taken care of them like this. Why? Was it because I was useless? Was it because I was trash? Perhaps both.
Su Xueya walked in after a while and asked me, "What did my mom say to you? Her expression didn't look too good just now!"
"Nothing, just concerned about my health!" I smiled slightly at Su Xueya and didn't tell her the truth, because I was afraid that if she knew, she would be thankful, or even argue with her mother. After all, Auntie was also doing it for her own good. What parents don't love their children? Of course, my parents might be an exception; after all, they could abandon me without considering whether I lived or died. Sometimes I wondered why other children had parents, why other children had such good family conditions, were loved, while I had nothing.
However, Su Xueya clearly didn't believe me. She sat on the edge of my bed and slowly said, "Just now, my mom told me outside to stay away from you in the future!"
Hearing Su Xueya's words, I felt a surge of tension, not understanding what she wanted to say.
"I also know my mom is doing it for my own good, wanting me to live a peaceful and happy life. But I'm an adult and have long had my own thoughts and reflections. I think life should be lived vigorously, and love should be loved vigorously. That way, it won't be a wasted trip to this world!"
I looked at Su Xueya speechlessly. Listening to her words, it seemed like she wanted to go against her mother and didn't want to follow her mother's wishes. But I had already promised Auntie that I would stay away from her.
"Actually, at the beginning, I heard about you from my sister. She was always talking about your good points, and I could always see endless happiness in her eyes. At that time, I was wondering what kind of man could make my sister so infatuated. Until the day my sister left, I saw you. Seeing your desperate and crazy expression, I knew my sister hadn't misjudged the person. You indeed have a unique temperament that makes women intoxicated. You can tell from the women around you. This temperament makes them involuntarily want to get close to you, want to understand you, even me, no exception!"
I looked at Su Xueya, my mood very complex. What she said was clearly meant for me. Combined with what she said before, why did it feel like a disguised confession? But this was too mysterious, right? I had that unique temperament? How could that be possible? It felt incredible. Since I was a child, I had no luck with women, until I met Sister Shuang later, and I slowly got to know the women in my life. My luck with women wasn't particularly good, so where did this unique attraction come from?
I kept waiting for Su Xueya's next words, but she didn't continue. Instead, she looked at me and said, "Don't you want to say something?"
"I... I..." I stammered, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Seeing my reaction, Su Xueya slowly stood up and said faintly, "You should rest well, don't think too much. Recovering your health is the key!"
After saying this, she left the hospital. For the next few days, Su Xueya didn't come to the hospital again, maybe because of her mother, or maybe because of something else. I didn't know, and I didn't ask. That was fine too; at least Auntie could feel better.
A few days later, I returned to school, full of energy. After returning to school, I realized that I seemed to have gotten used to the school atmosphere. I couldn't help but take a deep breath of the school air, feeling exceptionally comfortable.
Li Hong had been unscrupulous in school recently. Because I was hospitalized, he deliberately suppressed the forces of Third Brother and Chen Du. But fortunately, with Third Brother in charge, it wasn't too miserable, though they still lost quite a few people. Li Hong was now effectively covering the sky with one hand in school. Coupled with his relationship with Li Heng and the Li family's special network, even the school leaders and teachers didn't dare to do anything to Li Hong.
