Liu Min, who was following closely behind, saw Su Man and his heart tightened, fearing that Su Man would say something.
Su Man nodded lightly and shook the kettle in her hand.
"I came here to get some water and happened to be passing by."
She did not mention the embarrassing words she had just heard.
Obviously, he didn't plan to say more to them and turned to leave.
"Mr. Zhong, I'm going to get some water. Grandpa can't be left alone."
Zhong Wutao nodded and walked down the stairs.
"You are a filial child. Don't worry, the medical team from Hong Kong City will be here tomorrow."
"When the time comes, give Mr. Gu a thorough examination and then agree on a treatment plan."
"I believe that Mr. Gu will get better soon."
"By then, we two old men will be able to speak our minds."
Su Man nodded and didn't say much about it.
Zhong Wutao's eyes slid across and landed on Su Man's empty wrist.
"Don't you like the jewelry I gave you last time? Why aren't you wearing it?"
"Next time Grandpa Zhong returns to Hong Kong City, will he bring you some new styles?"
Su Man waved her hand and rejected Zhong Wutao's kindness.
"No, I don't usually carry expensive things with me when I go to school."
"So I put it away. Don't waste your money."
After getting the water, she nodded to Zhong Wutao and Liu Min, turned around and went back to the ward without looking back.
Zhong Wutao looked at her back for a long time before narrowing his eyes.
"This little girl is much smarter than Xia Xia. No wonder Xia Xia is no match for her."
Liu Min gritted his teeth, not knowing what to say.
It has been several months since he last saw Su Man at a wedding. He originally thought that Su Man would use the matter of Qiu Ju and Jiangong to threaten him.
But there was no movement from Su Man. If he hadn't bumped into her today, he would have suspected that he was hallucinating.
When you were in Beihe Town, wasn’t it Su Man you met?
But now seeing Su Man, my heart was in suspense again.
Before Zhong Wen and Liu Hongxia were discharged from the hospital, Zhong Wutao would keep going to the hospital.
He couldn't always follow, in case he missed out one time and ran into Zhong Wutao and Su Man alone.
Who knows, Su Man might mention this to Zhong Wutao.
By then, Qiuju and Jiangong will be in trouble.
"What are you thinking about?"
Zhong Wutao waited for a long time, but didn't hear Liu Min say anything. He turned his head and looked at him unhappily.
Liu Min came to his senses and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Dad, I'm wondering if we can come up with a way to deal with Su Man?"
This is also the only way to protect Qiuju and her son. Although Li Genshen knows something, as long as he is still useful to Li Genshen, there is no need to worry that Li Genshen will inform on him.
But it’s different on Su Man’s side, there are too many uncertainties.
"If you want to resolve it, you should have done it sooner rather than later. Now that she's back, everyone knows about it. There are only a few people in the capital who have a grudge against her."
"If we touch her now, won't it make it clear to others that it was us who did it?"
Zhong Wutao looked at Liu Min with disdain: "Do you think killing a person is as easy as killing a pig in your village?"
"Use your brain more and think of a solution."
"I'm going back first. Please take good care of Xia Xia and A Wen..."
Even though he could see that Liu Min was almost exhausted, Zhong Wutao didn't tell him to go back and rest.
He continued to be kept in the hospital and tortured by Zhong Wen and Liu Hongxia.
After seeing Zhong Wutao off, Liu Min turned around and returned to Liu Hongxia and Zhong Wen's ward.
Zhong Wenzhen and Liu Hongxia were applying medicine and didn't even turn their heads when they heard the noise.
"Xia Xia wants to eat Western food, please go over there."
“Coffee should have more milk and sugar, and steak should be medium rare.”
"Remember, it has to be hot when you bring it back!"
It takes at least half an hour to drive from the hospital to the western restaurant, and we have to ensure that the steak is hot when we get back, which is a challenge in itself.
But Liu Min couldn't say no.
"Okay, I'll be right back."
"You and Xiaxia go to sleep for a while. I'll buy it and call you later."
His kind words were met with contempt in Zhong Wen's eyes.
"Coward, if I had known earlier I would have let my dad go back to the capital with us."
"If my dad had come back with us, wouldn't this have happened?"
"It's all your fault, useless loser. Besides serving us food and drinks, what else can you do?"
Zhong Wen was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Hiss, Mom, it hurts..."
Liu Hongxia frowned unhappily and glared at Zhong Wen.
"If you're angry, go take it out on my dad, don't mess with me."
"Grandpa said that the medical team from Hong Kong City will be here soon, and his face will be healed by then!"
"If you add more injuries to yours, I'll make you the same as me."
Liu Hongxia now places all her hopes on the medical team from Gangcheng.
I don't even have time to cause trouble for Su Man and the others.
"Okay, blame mom, be gentle!"
Zhong Wen coaxed Liu Hongxia with kind words, then picked up the thermos next to him and threw it at Liu Min.
"Are you deaf or have a broken leg? What are you standing there for? Why don't you go?"
The broken pieces of the kettle flew everywhere, and the boiling water splashed all over Liu Min.
He shivered from the heat, but said nothing.
He turned around, got a broom and cleaned it up, then closed the ward door and went downstairs.
By this time, Zhong Wen and Liu Hongxia had also gone to bed.
Liu Min walked downstairs, thought for a while, then turned and went to Gu Defu's ward.
When I knocked on the door and went in, I saw that Su Man was the only one in the ward.
To avoid suspicion, he did not get close, but just closed the door and stood at the door.
"Tell me! What do you want?"
Instead of waiting for Su Man to come and threaten me, it would be better for me to ask first so that I can be prepared.
Su Man raised her head from the book and frowned.
"What do I want?"
Liu Min gritted his teeth and lowered his voice.
"Don't tell me you didn't recognize me. You clearly saw me in Beihe Town."
"You also know my relationship with Liang Qiuju and Jiangong. What do you want in exchange for helping me keep this secret?"
"Qiuju is a country girl with no skills, and Jiangong is in poor health. If she falls into their hands, she will be dead."
"You can't, you can't make me kneel down and beg you, right?"
Although he had knelt before Zhong Wutao many times recently, he still found it difficult to kneel down to a junior.
Seeing that Su Man remained silent, Liu Min gritted his teeth.
"If you insist, I will..."
As he spoke, he was about to kneel down.
"Wait a minute!"
Su Man put down the book and stopped Liu Min.
He pinched his eyebrows and sighed.
"I have no interest in other people's private affairs, and I don't want to tell on them."
"As long as you don't provoke me, I won't say anything."
"If you're here for this, you can be at ease."
After saying that, Su Man picked up the book and continued reading.
Liu Min, who was standing at the door, was really confused at this moment.
He never thought that Su Man would think this way.
