Luo Bing rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm just an ordinary person. I can't see through the mundane world, but I can see through some of human nature."
Mu Ci smiled but said nothing.
Luo Bing sighed, "I'm not concerned about you, I'm concerned about Zhou Shuo. How could such a good child, once he stepped into the mortal world, fall into your trap? Did you save the Earth in your past life? We've carefully cared for this child for so many years, ah! I worry about her all the time now, so I can't help but grit my teeth just thinking about it."
Mu Ci raised his eyebrows, "Do you three brothers have other intentions?"
Luo Bing kicked Mu Ci's wheelchair, "What nonsense are you talking about? We raised Zhou Shuo! We are his brother and his father!"
He said viciously, "Mu Ci, listen to me. I don't care what you want to do, or who wants to do it to you, but nothing can happen to Zhou Shuo! Otherwise, I will destroy the Mu family! I'm not trying to scare you!"
Of course he wasn't trying to scare him, and Mu Ci knew that too.
Seeing that Mu Ci didn't say anything, Luo Bing had no place to vent the anger in his heart, and kicked Mu Ci's wheelchair again in anger.
"What can I do now? What can I do? I can only be cautious and help you without any principles or limits! What do I want? Just because you can treat Zhou Shuo well! Who made this silly girl fall in love with a bastard like you?"
Mu Ci said calmly, "This is the last time we'll discuss this topic. I'll make it clear one last time that I'll treat Zhou Shuo well with my life."
Luo Bing sneered and glanced at the door of the ward. Doesn’t the person lying there explain the problem?
"Knock knock", there was a soft knock on the door, and then Uncle Liu pushed the door open and came in.
"Master, the medicine is here. I brought them all." Uncle Liu placed the small medicine box on the table.
He didn't recognize them and couldn't tell them apart, so he just took them all.
Mu Ci opened the medicine box and frowned.
Luo Bing said, "Let Zhou Shuo choose for herself. She knows her medicine best."
A word can wake a person up from a dream.
Zhou Shuo woke up and was very happy to see Chen Su and his second senior brother.
"Chen Su, luckily I was the one who got hurt. If it were you, the Great Wall would probably be broken by your crying." Zhou Shuo boasted without waiting for Chen Su to speak.
Shen Su squatted down, lying on the bed and looking at her, "Does it hurt?"
Zhou Shuo nodded, "Yeah, it hurts so much! You definitely can't stand it, luckily it's me."
"Thank you! Zhou Shuo!" Shen Su thanked him sincerely.
"What is there for us two to thank each other for? We just didn't get to have dinner. Can you please tell me what you wanted to take me to eat?" Zhou Shuo changed the subject easily.
"You can't eat anything now!" Luo Bing interrupted her.
Zhou Shuo pouted, "Second Brother!"
"Come and see which one is for pain relief, which one is for hemostasis, and which one is for anti-inflammatory! I think you are confused because of the pain! You have your own effective medicine, why do you still have to endure the pain and use those useless things?" Luo Bing scolded.
Zhou Shuo's eyes lit up when he saw his little medicine bottle, "Ah, my babies!"
She opened the small bottles one by one and smelled them, then picked out the ones for internal use and external application. She drove Mu Ci and Luo Bing out and asked Chen Su to help her clean the wound on her back and apply the powder.
Chen Su bit her lip, forced herself to overcome her trembling hands, and carefully applied medicine to Zhou Shuo. She also witnessed the hideous wound with her own eyes.
By the time she finished applying the medicine, her forehead was covered in sweat.
"Does it still hurt?" Shen Su asked Zhou Shuo.
Zhou Shuo shook his head and said with a smile: "It feels cool and refreshing. My medicine is still more effective!"
Chen Su said angrily, "Where has your brain gone? Why couldn't you think of it sooner?"
Zhou Shuo chuckled, "This happened so suddenly, I really didn't expect it."
Chen Su stopped talking and pulled Zhou Shuo's hand to play with it. Zhou Shuo's hand was very small, soft as if it had no bones, and his fingertips were as slender as spring onions.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhou Shuo said, "Chen Su, if it wasn't you at the time, but someone else, I would do the same. It's instinct, so don't take it to heart, okay?"
Shen Su looked at her with an unprecedented clear and serious gaze. "I know, because you are kind in your bones. You saved me not because I am Shen Su."
Zhou Shuo pinched Chen Su's fingers and said, "You can't say that. You are Chen Su, and it's true that you made me react faster."
It's hard not to fall in love with Zhou Shuo like this.
Shen Su reached out and pinched her nose, and they both laughed.
"I have two scars like this on my back. I know what it feels like to lie down like this. At that time, I didn't have good medicine like you, so I had to rely on painkillers and injections to get through it." Shen Su said softly.
"Oh?" Zhou Shuo widened his eyes in surprise.
"Who did you save?" Zhou Shuo instinctively guessed that Chen Su was injured while saving someone.
"My sister." Shen Su said softly.
"Sister Chen Bai?" Zhou Shuo was surprised.
Shen Su nodded lightly.
She unconsciously pinched Zhou Shuo's fingers one by one, playing with them carefully, and said softly, "When my sister was eighteen years old, she was kidnapped by gangsters. I followed them all the way to an abandoned warehouse. They wanted to do something bad to my sister, but my sister fought back desperately, which angered them."
"One of them was like the gangster, holding a knife and trying to chop my sister. I didn't care about anything else and rushed over to hug my sister tightly. The knife then chopped me on the back. Before I could feel the pain, he chopped me down again."
"I was in so much pain I lost consciousness. Even when I was rushed to the hospital, I was still clinging to my sister's neck. Zhou Shuo, I know how you felt. You just did what you thought you should do. You don't need me to be grateful to you. In fact, my gratitude would make you feel uncomfortable."
Zhou Shuo was stunned after hearing this.
"Chen Su." She called her name softly.
Only by experiencing it can one understand such a state of mind. She understood that what Shen Su said was true.
Shen Su smiled slightly, but the smile was a little bitter: "My brother and sister and I have the same father but different mothers. My brother and sister's mother died of depression because of my mother's existence. My mother was not kind to my brother and sister."
"She's the kind of person who's a loving mother in front of others but a vicious stepmother behind their backs. That's why my eldest brother ran away from home, and my sister was raised by my grandparents. Children always like to be with older children. I love my older brothers and sisters, but they avoid me, and my mother won't let me play with them."
Chen Su sighed softly, "Some things are hard to explain, such as blood ties. No matter how cold my brothers and sisters are to me, I still long for them to be good to me, so I always spare no effort to please them. My sister's personality should be like her biological mother, gentle and kind."
"She couldn't resist my constant nagging and was very nice to me. She would bring me delicious food and fun things after school. But when my mom found out, she would mock her and I would argue with her. I often argued with her because of this. When she bullied my sister, I would stand up to her. I always wanted to stick with my sister, so after she was kidnapped, I immediately followed her. I was afraid she was in danger, and I wanted to protect her like I did with my mom."
Shen Su paused.
Zhou Shuo said softly: "So, you understand my feelings for you."
