"Hmph!" Father Fang snorted heavily, slamming his hand on the bedside table. "She's really gone too far! She's repeatedly tried to harm her own sister! How could she raise such a vicious person!"
Fang's mother frowned slightly and looked up at Fang Ming, "Go and call a nurse to come in and treat your sister's wound."
Fang Ming's expression tightened. He nodded slightly and immediately turned to leave.
Seeing their tense expressions, as if facing a formidable enemy, Fang Ling's initial fear finally subsided considerably.
It's not too late yet; they haven't developed feelings for Zhu Hao, nor are they protecting her.
She still has time to resolve things. Best wishes!
Fang Ling sat on a single sofa in the ward. The wound on her hand had been treated and wrapped in gauze. She had also changed out of her dirty dress.
She bit her lip, her hands clasped nervously, her fingertips fidgeting with the hem of her clothes, perfectly portraying the image of a helpless and innocent victim.
"Wish me well is really too much!" Fang Ming sat opposite Fang Ling, his fists clenched, his face displeased.
Fang's mother, lying on the hospital bed, glanced at Fang Ling's pale face and comforted her, "After all, she's your sister. We're all family. Don't make a big fuss over nothing."
Fang Ling's eyes trembled slightly, knowing in her heart that her mother was advising her not to stoop to Zhu Hao's level.
But Fang's mother had always unconditionally favored her before!
Fang Ling clenched her teeth, her heart already filled with rage as she wished she could tear Zhu Hao's face to pieces.
Mr. Fang interjected, "Your sister probably feels guilty towards us because of what happened two years ago. Your mother isn't feeling well today either. We didn't get to talk to your sister much, but the fact that she came to visit shows that she's still willing to be close to us. It's just that the grievance in her heart hasn't been resolved. Tomorrow, your brother and I will go to see her and have a good talk with her. Then we'll let this matter rest."
Mr. Fang stood up abruptly, his dark eyes sweeping over Fang Ming's gloomy face, and he warned sharply, "Fang Ming!"
Fang Ming's lips twitched slightly, and he scoffed, "I know, Dad."
"Hmm." Mr. Fang smoothed out the wrinkles in his clothes, and paused when he looked at Fang Ling. "Alright, go wash your face too. Tomorrow your brother and I will have a good talk with your sister."
Fang Ling lowered her eyes, bit her lower lip, and answered in a muffled voice, "Okay."
After giving his instructions, Mr. Fang got up and left. "I haven't finished dealing with the company matters yet. I'll go back and take care of them first. You two take good care of Mom."
Bang!
The ward door was closed.
Fang Ling's heart trembled.
Her hair hung down, completely obscuring her face, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
Her lower lip was almost bitten through, and bright red blood oozed from the corner of her lips.
Previously, Fang's father had always kept aloof and was unwilling to take the initiative to seek reconciliation with Zhu Hao. Even after he learned that Zhu Hao had climbed up to Tang Song, he was unwilling to step forward and urge her to go to Zhu Hao.
Now, Fang's father has actually offered to take Fang Ming to see Zhu Hao.
Just because I saw Tang Song and Zhu Hao together today.
Fang Ling's breathing gradually quickened, and the jealousy and hatred in her heart intensified until she felt a warm force on her shoulder.
She caught her breath and looked up.
Fang Ming stared at her with a somber expression. "Xiao Ling, don't be sad..."
He opened his lips, as if to say something but then stopped, but considering that Fang's mother was still there, he ultimately said nothing, only patted Fang Ling's shoulder, and then returned to Fang's mother's bedside.
Fang Ling raised her hand to wipe the corner of her eye, her delicate aura completely gone, leaving only ruthlessness and viciousness.
"Xiao Ling..." Fang's mother called softly.
"You're here, Mom!" Fang Ling got up, slowly walked to the bedside, sat quietly, and listened obediently to her mother's instructions.
It's nothing more than wanting to get along well with Zhu Hao in the future...
*
Back at the manor.
Tang Song gave the wolves a new order: they should conceal their scent and ensure that it would not taint Zhu Hao before making contact with her.
Zhu Hao could clearly sense that the wolves deliberately kept a distance when speaking to her.
Not far, it's the distance of normal human social interaction.
The wolves no longer swarmed around her like before, as if they wanted to crush her into a meat pie.
Even the little wolf cub has become more sensible and will no longer recklessly rush into her arms. Several times before, she was almost knocked over by the little wolf cub.
She had to admit that, although she could clearly feel the wolves deliberately keeping their distance, she genuinely felt much better than before.
Even if the wolves surrounded her, they would leave her some space around her so that she wouldn't feel like there were too many wolves and that all the air was being taken away.
Tang Song stared with satisfaction at the pack of wolves surrounding Zhu Hao.
【Yes! That's more like it! Stay away from my cubs! The few millimeters the pack kept away before was nothing! This is what you call a proper distance! There's enough room for one and a half of me to stand in between! Great, great! Yay!】
Zhu Hao's lips curled into a smile as she looked up at Tang Song, "Fry..."
[Oh! Oh! Oh! The little one said he wants fried chicken when he gets back!! Of course we'll have it!!]
"Sister Zhang!" Tang Song called out loudly.
"Here it comes!" Aunt Zhang brought out the freshly made fried chicken.
All the wolves' eyes fell on Aunt Zhang, and they all swallowed hard.
Aunt Zhang smiled kindly, wiping the water off her hands as she beckoned to the wolves, "Come here, come here, you have some too, come help me get them."
"Okay!"
"Long live Aunt Zhang!"
"Yay! Aunt Zhang, I love you!"
...
The wolves that were called over eagerly stepped forward, and the wolf cubs followed with hopping and skipping steps, smacking their lips and chattering away.
"Aunt Zhang, Aunt Zhang! I want to eat the new flavor you made!"
"I want one too!"
"You want them all? I want them too!!"
...
The living room was instantly filled only with Zhu Hao and Tang Song.
Zhu Hao blinked, stared at the empty living room, and chuckled as he smiled.
[Oh dear! Let these wolves drool! Who was it that said human food wasn't tasty because it didn't have a fishy smell? Now that Aunt Zhang is here, she can just whip up a simple meal, and they've all stopped acting like wolves!]
Zhu Hao bit her lip, listening to Tang Song's rambling, her gaze fixed on Tang Song's large, well-defined hands.
Unless there are special circumstances, if she goes to take his hand...
Hands act before the mind.
By the time Zhu Hao realized what was happening, her hand was already hooked around Tang Song's little finger.
The howls of wolves erupted in my ears.
【Aaaaaah! Awooo!!! Awooo!!!】
[The cub grabbed my hand on its own initiative!! On its own initiative!! Does anyone understand?! It's holding my hand!! Not my wrist!! Does anyone understand?! Ah!! Awooo!!]
[Awooooo~ Awooooo~ I'm so excited!! Does this prove that the cub is still mine?! She won't be lured back by the Fang family! Awooooo~ So happy (?????)]
Zhu Hao's eyes crinkled with laughter, and even though Tang Song's voice was practically shattering her eardrums, she still didn't brush the strands of hair behind her ears to cover them.
She carefully followed Tang Song's fingertips downwards, slipping through his fingers.
Their fingers are intertwined.
【Aaaaaaahhhhhh!!! !!! !!! ! ...
