Chapter 490 True Friends

Back at the hotel, Xu Ziyue told Yan Nuo about her encounter with Jiang Ruoyu at the rehabilitation facility. Yan Nuo praised her highly, "Brother Shi An is amazing! This way of handling things is truly textbook-level! Jiang Ruoyu tried to use moral blackmail on Brother Shi An, but was exposed by him right in front of her. It seems that the best way to deal with someone who likes to use moral blackmail on others is to expose his intentions right in front of her and make her feel ashamed."

"Right. Anyway, after hearing what Jiang Ruoyu said, Shi'an no longer felt any guilt. He was very grateful to Jiang Ruoyu for saving him before."

Yan Nuo choked, "That's what Jiang Ruoyu deserves. If Brother Shi'an was single, it would be perfectly natural for her to use this little trick to get close to him and win his favor. But Brother Shi'an is already married, so she should restrain her thoughts. Isn't she afraid that she will meet someone who will try to steal her away like her in the future?"

Xu Ziyue: "I feel that she has a very good self-esteem and probably feels that she will not be poached."

Yan Nuo nodded vigorously, "That should be it. Yueyue, if Shi An hadn't called you and heard all this, what would you have done?"

Xu Ziyue said, "Of course I told him directly how I felt, and then let him make his own decision. If he goes, I'll return home with you two after my leg is treated."

Yan Nuo couldn't help laughing, "After returning to China, go through the divorce process?"

"That's not necessary. Judging from his behavior, if something happens between Jiang Ruoyu and him, I'll have no choice but to divorce him. If nothing happens, then we can continue to be husband and wife!"

"Woman, you are so generous!" Yan Nuo couldn't help but admire her.

After getting married, what women fear most is encountering a third party who wants to destroy their family. It’s not that they are afraid of their partner being taken away, but they are afraid that these trivial matters will divert their attention and make them exhausted.

Xu Ziyue said, "It's not that I'm generous, it's that I choose to believe Shi'an. Since I promised to be with him again, I should trust him. If he betrays my trust, I will break up with him. It's not like I haven't met scumbags before, so what's the problem with one or two? No matter how many scumbags I meet, I have my parents and you behind me."

Hearing this, Yan Nuo was very happy.

After that day, Jiang Ruoyu really never appeared again. The four of them lived a peaceful life in a foreign country. Occasionally, they would meet the girl named Diandian at the miracle doctor's house. Every time they met, her eyes were not eyes and her nose was not a nose. Unfortunately, in the eyes of the four of them, she was just an irrelevant passerby and they didn't care about her at all.

After thirty days of treatment, the doctor told Xu Ziyue that she could go home.

"The sensation in your legs is slowly returning. You can return to Jinghai and continue your training in the rehabilitation department of Jinghai Hospital. You will definitely be able to stand up again within six months."

Xu Ziyue's eyes lit up, "Thank you."

"No, I only do this for a fee," the doctor said honestly. "I'd also like to apologize to you. I heard my little granddaughter doesn't treat you well every time she sees you. I hope you can forget about her. She's just a little girl who hasn't grown up yet and I've spoiled her. I'll take action to discipline her."

"Well, I don't think there's anything wrong with that!" Xu Ziyue naturally couldn't say anything bad about his granddaughter in front of the genius doctor, and she really didn't take the girl Diandian seriously.

"Call your husband in and take you home," said the doctor.

For some reason, Xu Ziyue's eyes became moist when she heard these words.

"Yueyue, what did the miracle doctor say to you?" Shen Shian couldn't help asking as he pushed Xu Ziyue out of the miracle doctor's house.

Xu Ziyue smiled: "Nothing, just let me go home with you, exercise well, and try to stand up within half a year."

"Within half a year?!" Shen Shian was so excited that he almost jumped up. He gripped the wheelchair handles tightly with both hands, his chest heaving violently. "You are indeed a miracle doctor!"

When the couple was happily riding back to the hotel, the miracle doctor met his granddaughter.

"Diandian, from now on, you should spend less time with the Jiang family and spend more time at home with your mother."

"Why, Grandpa? Why are you suddenly restricting my friendships? Is it because bad company corrupts people? In the past month, outsiders have been coming to our house frequently and saying bad things about Sister Ruoyu in front of you. Was it that guy surnamed Xu who said that?"

"No one said anything. It was your bad attitude that spread among the servants. I asked someone to investigate and found out that the daughter of the Jiang family was coveting a married man."

Diandian's face turned grim. "Nonsense! Sister Ruoyu is not after a married man. She was the one who met Shen Shian first. If it weren't for her, Shen Shian would have died long ago. Shen Shian should be grateful to Sister Ruoyu for saving him."

Miracle Doctor: "I think Mr. Shen is a man of integrity. Isn't he grateful to Jiang Ruoyu for saving his life?"

Diandian choked, "He...it's not that he isn't grateful, but he rejected Sister Ruoyu in person. That was really disrespectful."

"You want to destroy someone else's family, and you still expect them to give you face? What kind of world is this? Don't rush to refute me. Let me ask you, if you were Xu Ziyue, what would you think if Jiang Ruoyu wanted to develop a relationship with him while you were married to Shen Shian? You would probably be very generous and give Shen Shian to her."

"I didn't..." Diandian's momentum was getting weaker and weaker, and finally he said, "Grandpa, that's not how it works. Sister Ruoyu is my friend. My friend is not perfect, she can have flaws."

"Indeed, everyone can have flaws, so I'll put you in their shoes. When your father had other intentions, you knew to criticize him and let him return to the family. Why don't you understand this time? You supported Jiang Ruoyu in stealing someone else's love and destroying someone else's family, thinking you were being righteous. Perhaps, when you and your mother were suffering, the friends around that woman, like you, advised her to fight hard, take your father away, and abandon your mother and you. A true friend should pull her back to the right direction and save her when she makes a mistake, instead of letting her make the same mistake again and again."

Diandian's face turned pale: "..."
