Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Qianxun rushed to Su Jiye’s ward in no time. Aunt Zhang and Mu Bai were with him. Mu Bai was applying medical ointment on Su Jiye’s wounds.
Su Qianxun dashed over to her younger brother and looked at his injured arm. It was still bleeding. She quickly held his arm, pain and anger stirring in her chest.
‘Qiao Bonian is a monster. Jiye is his biological son. How could he lay his hand on him!’
To him, she and Jiye were probably not even worth a strand of Qiao Yiren’s hair.
She simply could not understand why a father could be so heartless.
“Master Qiao is really becoming more and more outrageous! How could there be such a heartless and wicked person in this world!” Aunt Zhang stood beside the siblings as she wiped her tears. Her heart ached at the sight of the injured young man.
Su Qianxun blew on Su Jiye’s wound gently to ease his pain. She fought back tears and said softly, “Jiye, be a good boy. Once I blow some cool air on your wounds, they won’t hurt as much.”
Su Qianxun talked to Mu Bai about getting Su Jiye discharged today. Once Mu Bai agreed with her decision, Su Qianxun immediately left to settle the paperwork f.
Su Qianxun only realized how much her younger brother’s treatment cost when she had completed the patient discharge form and submitted it. She knew that Long Sijue paid for the medical bill. She had to find a way to pay him back.
After the young woman had settled everything, she turned and was about to head back to her younger brother’s ward. When she raised her head, she immediately spotted Xia Chuxi from afar. He had a cigarette in his hand and was gazing at her with a troubled look in his eyes.
Su Qianxun ignored him and walked away immediately. Xia Chuxi strode towards her. Su Qianxun did not want to acknowledge him. In spite of that, he grabbed her by the arm and dragged her to a secluded area.
“Xia Chuxi, I have nothing else to say to you. Let go of me!” Su Qianxun glared at him angrily. She turned around to look for Si Mancheng, but he was nowhere to be seen.
“I know you’ve been set up, but Yiren didn’t do that on purpose. It was one of your cla.s.smates who blamed the theft on you. Yiren didn’t have anything to do with it. Also, about the miscarriage…”
“Xia Chuxi, I’m not interested in hearing about how much you love Qiao Yiren! You know very well whether or not she is innocent!”
Without holding back her anger, Su Qianxun called him out on his lies. Xia Chuxi obviously knew the truth, yet he was willing to defend Qiao Yiren by lying to others and himself.
“Yiren didn’t mean any of these.”
“She didn’t mean any of these? So I deserve to be set up and almost die in the police station? Hehehe.”
Xia Chuxi’s expression turned slightly grim. He lowered his voice and said, “The man you were with wanted Yiren to issue an apology in front of everyone in the university. If she does that, her reputation will be ruined. She’s still new to the industry, and had just gotten the Best Actress award. She’s still rising to fame.This incident will affect her career development badly… As long as you don’t ask her to apologize, I can arrange a second lead character for your debut and boost your fame. Soon enough…”
As it turned out, this was his real intention. Even though he had known the truth behind Qiao Yiren’s miscarriage, he still wanted to protect her at all cost!
“Shut up! You’re mistaken. It’s not me who wanted Qiao Yiren to apologize. I don’t have a say in this. You’re talking to the wrong person!”
After Su Qianxun finished speaking, she turned and left immediately. She sneered internally. ‘Xia Chuxi loves Qiao Yiren very much indeed. This is the first time I saw him begging anymore in such a humble manner.’
Xia Chuxi stared at the young woman as she left in a hurry and somehow grew frustrated. He turned and kicked the trash can beside him into the air. The loud crash attracted the attention of the people around him.
After Su Qianxun walked out of the elevator, she headed to Su Jiye’s ward. However, she b.u.mped into Lan Qingcheng who was walking beside a man. Lan Qingcheng instantly stopped in her tracks when she spotted Su Qianxun.
Su Qianxun wanted to keep her head down and walk past them, but Lan Qingcheng obviously did not have the intention to let her go. She took the initiative to greet the young woman, “Miss Su, what a coincidence.”
