"Mom, what are you and your sister talking about?"

After making some assurances, Su Xiangxiang assumed that everything that had happened before was in the past.

She tried to sit down by the hospital bed, but Su Shaoyang grabbed her arm.

"Get off, you can't sit there."

Su Xiangxiang was a little hurt from being pulled, and said angrily, "Why can't I sit?"

Su Shaoyang: "You're covered in bacteria."

Su Xiangxiang was unhappy.

So what if they're all bacteria?

No one will die!

But she couldn't say those words.

Just then, she saw Su Shaoze looking at her, so Su Xiangxiang dared not make a fuss anymore.

She sat down where Su Shaoyang had been sitting, and said angrily, "Is that alright now?"

Turning to her mother, she whined, "Mom, look at my third brother! He always bullies me like this!"

Su Shaoyang chuckled.

Su's mother said, "Can Can's injuries haven't healed yet; he was just concerned about his younger sister."

Su Xiangxiang's expression changed.

Concerned about his younger sister?

Just because Yan Can is her younger sister doesn't mean she isn't. Why does she have to act like a grandson whenever Yan Can comes?

The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them back.

A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan.

She couldn't afford to upset her family any further at this time.

After thinking for a moment, Su Xiangxiang changed the subject and said to Yan Can, "Sister, I came here so abruptly, you won't blame me, will you?"

Yan Can remained expressionless. "No."

[If I were truly reckless, I wouldn't have bought the fruit basket and cake.]

[My third brother said this cake shop is located in a very remote area, and it's the only one in the entire city; there are no branches.]

Only then did Su's mother notice the cake's packaging.

It really was that company.

Yan Can's coldness displeased Su Xiangxiang.

With that cold face, who are you trying to disgust?

No wonder she's the second brother's sister; she's just as annoying as her brother.

Su Xiangxiang secretly pursed her lips, then said softly, "It was all my fault the day before yesterday. If I had been able to hold my sister back, she wouldn't have fallen down the stairs."

Su Shaoyang chuckled again.

His addiction to acting is really getting stronger and stronger.

Su Shaoze said coldly, "That's enough, don't disturb Yan Can's rest."

For the sake of the so-called "plot," they had to temporarily feign compliance with Su Xiangxiang, but that didn't mean they were willing to listen to her nonsense.

Su Xiangxiang was so frightened that she shuddered and her eyes immediately welled up with tears.

She subconsciously looked at Su's mother, only to see that Su's mother was looking at Yan Can as if nothing had happened.

"Mom, I want to sleep for a while."

Yan Can said.

[If I don't sleep, Mom will have to keep taking care of me, and Su Xiangxiang won't have a chance to put medicine in Mom's eye.]

[How awful.]

[Her mother was the best person to her, and even after the truth about the baby being switched at birth was revealed, she didn't treat her differently because she wasn't her biological child.]

[But sincerity and compassion cannot be exchanged for sincerity; all they bring are greed and betrayal.]

Su's mother nodded, and only got up and left after Yan Can "fell asleep".

Upon seeing this, Su Xiangxiang immediately got up to help her.

The moment those small hands linked arms, Su's mother's body stiffened almost imperceptibly.

The mere thought of the malicious intent this person harbored when approaching her made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Looking at the two of them, Su Shaoze suddenly said, "Third brother, you go out too."

Su Shaoyang retorted, "Why should I?"

"You're too noisy."

“I didn’t say anything at all.”

"Now you've spoken."

"..."

Grass!

Su Shaoyang stood up and made a face at Su Shaoze, only to see Yan Can secretly laughing at him.

"OK."

"I talk too much, I'll go outside."

"If I can't afford to offend them, I can at least avoid them!"

Just as Su Shaoyang said this, Su Xiangxiang turned around to look at him.

The look in his eyes was tinged with sympathy and a hint of schadenfreude, but it conveyed the same message: we are all in the same boat.

Su Shaoyang: Bah!

Who shares your plight?

As soon as they left, the ward fell silent.

Su Shaoze said, "Aren't you sleepy? Take a nap. You can get an IV drip when you wake up."

Yan Can shook her head, "I'm not sleepy."

She paused for a moment, then said, "I lied to my second brother."

Su Shaoze thought to himself, "What kind of lie is this? It's normal that you don't want to see her, but she just doesn't understand, so you have to find another way. That's not lying."

Yan Can: "..."

Does my second brother have any special feelings for me?

[Incorrect.]

[My second brother was like that in my past life too. Even when he was occasionally manipulated by the plot to do things that went against his nature, he could always detect something was wrong and correct it immediately.]

He would often come to see me after surgery and even helped me deal with a stalker.

Su Shaoze listened quietly to Yan Can's innermost thoughts.

Judging from Yan Can's memories, even though they were influenced by the plot, his family still retained some instincts, knowing what they were doing, what they had done wrong, and how to correct it.

Under those circumstances, Yan Can moved out alone.

so.

Did Su Xiangxiang actually kick Yan Can out of the Su family?

Or did they realize that Yan Can would be in danger if she stayed in the Su family, so they devised a plan to send her out of the Su family?

...

"Mom, are you still angry with me?"

After leaving the ward, Su Xiangxiang began to apologize.

“I really just wanted to do something for my sister. I begged Wang Ma for a long time before she agreed to let me deliver food. I thought that the hospital smelled of disinfectant everywhere, and my sister wouldn’t be happy in the hospital, so I went to buy flowers.”

After saying this, Su Shaoyang rolled his eyes.

Does having flowers make you happy?

If I push you down the stairs, get hurt, and then buy a truckload of flowers to visit you, would you be happy?

Su Xiangxiang didn't see his mocking expression and continued, "Everything was going smoothly until I came out after buying the flowers. Those two people shoved me, fell down, and then tried to stage an accident, demanding that I apologize and make amends..."

She was angry one moment, furious the next, and then felt wronged.

Su's mother thought to herself that if she hadn't already known the truth, she probably would have been fooled by Su Xiangxiang's words.

That's how it is.

“I waited for you to come and rescue me at the police station, but none of you cared about me. I knew you were all angry with me.”

“You always get angry because I did something wrong, but you’ve never ignored me like this before. So I immediately reflected on my actions and realized where I went wrong.”

She spoke with such sincerity that Su's mother asked her, "Then where did you go wrong?"

Su Xiangxiang started talking right away.

"I shouldn't have let my sister get hurt."

“I took my sister’s identity, causing her to be stranded for eighteen years. It’s only natural that my parents and brothers favor my sister when she finally came home. I shouldn’t be angry or jealous about it.”

"But Mom, you have to believe me, I have no ill intentions towards my sister."

"I just love you all so much, and I'm so afraid of losing you!"

Su Xiangxiang was moved by what he said.

But Su's mother remained completely unmoved.

Su Shaoyang rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky.
