Chapter 73: No Way Back
In addition to Xie Chengsheng who was making dinner for Lu Yinghan, there were also Wang Mengmeng and her son.
The other three looked at each other, and walked out of the room tacitly to leave them space.
"grandfather….."
Xie Hongyang lowered his tone. He hadn't done it on purpose when he got closer to her just now.
He really didn't expect Lu Yinghan to be scared.
In Mr. Xie's mind, he recalled the video of Lu Yinghan being beaten, and he glared at Xie Hongyang in annoyance.
"You also watched her live broadcast, couldn't you pay a little more attention?"
"yes……"
This time Xie Hongyang had nothing to say.
He obediently lowered his head to admit his mistake and accepted the abuse from Mr. Xie.
Xie Chengzhou patted Mr. Xie on the shoulder.
"Okay, Dad, Xiaoyang didn't mean it."
The three of them were silent again.
"You guys have to treat her well from now on. Oh, by the way, there are no clothes for little girls at home. I'm going to go and buy some now. You guys have to be careful in the future and don't scare her. Got it?"
Mr. Xie has been thinking about this matter for a long time. He was already thinking about this problem while having dinner.
There were only boys' clothes in the house, and the only women's clothes were for my daughter-in-law, and Lu Yinghan couldn't wear them.
Now he didn't stay for a moment and followed the housekeeper to choose nice clothes for Lu Yinghan.
Under the gaze of a group of people, Lu Yinghan drank two bowls of porridge with some side dishes.
Xie Chengsheng stared at her as she drank it in small sips. In his hand, he held a piece of white paper, which he folded in half and fanned at the large bowl of porridge.
He didn't want her to get burned.
Xie Bei looked at Xie Chengsheng from time to time, with a little more surprise in his eyes.
But it soon calmed down.
At home, I am the only one who has a better relationship with Xie Chengsheng.
The two people's situations are different, but the situations are similar.
They all feel helpless about not being understood.
Xie Bei didn't find it strange that his cousin had a different opinion of Yingying.
"Lu Yinghan, don't go to school after you recover. I will come back to give you extra lessons. Otherwise, your family will come looking for you as soon as you go to school."
Xie Chengsheng held Lu Yinghan's empty bowl in his hand and exerted a little force on it.
Lu Yinghan glanced at the little boy in front of her and felt like laughing.
When I arrive at school, they will come straight to me?
The possibility is really small, even if it is found.
She could already imagine what they would say.
But Lu Yinghan felt a little embarrassed to trouble him like this.
"Then I'll trouble you, Xiaocheng. After school and dinner, you can come to Yingying's room and tutor her."
Without waiting for Lu Yinghan to speak, Xie Bei answered for her directly, not giving Lu Yinghan any chance to refuse.
Xie Chengsheng's eyes were always on Lu Yinghan. He was observing her expression and saw that she nodded in response to Xie Bei's words.
His grip on the bowl relaxed.
"Okay, no problem. Remember to take your medicine and have a good rest."
Xie Chengsheng, who was always arrogant to others during the day, lost all his arrogance in front of Lu Yinghan.
Wang Mengmeng came in with a basin and ointment.
"Okay, all men, get out."
Because she had a cold, I could only wipe her body. This task could have been handed over to the maid, but Wang Mengmeng recalled the video of her being beaten that she saw in the morning, so she took over the matter.
She was afraid that the servants would not be careful and hurt Lu Yinghan.
She lay obediently on the bed, allowing Wang Mengmeng to gently wipe her body.
The exposed skin still had some wounds that had not healed.
The broken pieces were scattered all over her body, and Wang Mengmeng's hands, which were wiping them, suddenly froze.
"Auntie, I can do it myself."
When Lu Yinghan saw Wang Mengmeng's expression, she hurriedly stood up and tried to take the towel from her hand.
"Lie down! Auntie is here! Just lie down and have a good rest."
Wang Mengmeng turned around and avoided the hand that Lu Yinghan extended to her.
Gently wipe it for her.
Her movements were careful and gentle, fearing that she would hurt Lu Yinghan if she accidentally used too much force.
She wiped her frowned brows carefully, and occasionally she would breathe softly unconsciously, and the slightly cold breath spread on Lu Yinghan's skin.
Lu Yinghan looked at Wang Mengmeng's profile, and vague memories of her childhood came to her mind.
It's almost all blurred.
She vaguely remembered that when she was young, she was weak and sickly, and she caught colds and fevers all the time.
It seems to be night
She clearly felt that she was being held in someone's arms and there was a faint fragrance on her body.
That is the gentle breath that only belongs to mother.
She opened her eyes a little dazedly, trying to see what was going on.
The dazzling stars at night caught her eyes.
There were also the sounds of other people's hurried footsteps nearby.
She couldn't see who was around her. She only heard that even though He Shu was tired, she didn't let go of her hand, and she could also hear her panting.
The stars were beautiful that night, and although she felt uncomfortable, she felt at ease.
So she squinted her eyes again, and her dreams were filled with the beautiful starry sky.
Coming back to her senses, Lu Yinghan squinted her eyes due to the dazzling light bulb...
She looked out the window
It was a dark night.
Not even a single star.
Darkness is scary and depressing.
After wiping it, Wang Mengmeng looked up at Lu Yinghan with satisfaction.
Just as I was about to open my mouth to speak, it was filled with lead.
The swelling and soreness exploded in her neck…
At some point, a tear quietly slipped down the corner of Lu Yinghan's eyes.
She didn't seem to notice anything and just stared out the window blankly.
Her eyes are bright and clear.
But it's too clean
Just like a fragile object, it will fall apart and shatter into pieces if touched lightly.
"Yingying?"
Wang Mengmeng's voice became cautious when calling Lu Yinghan.
A whisper to bring Lu Yinghan back to her senses
"Aunt?"
Wang Mengmeng didn't know what to say for a moment, and even forgot to breathe.
She quickly took out the ointment beside her and prepared to apply it to her to hide her panic.
The two of them completed a long task in silence.
After applying the ointment, Wang Mengmeng glanced at Lu Yinghan from time to time to see if she had any other reaction.
But Lu Yinghan turned her head and looked out the window again.
Thinking about something.
Restraining her trembling hands, Wang Mengmeng finally stepped forward and hugged the child who made her feel so distressed just by looking at him.
"Aunt?"
"It's okay, auntie will hug you, everything will be fine, ah."
Wang Mengmeng's words immediately broke Lu Yinghan's defense.
The warm embrace almost made her cry, and she couldn't help but want to cry.
But this is not my mother.
The tangled emotions were about to explode in Lu Yinghan's chest.
She took a few deep breaths, then reached out and gently hugged Wang Mengmeng back.
The little head crept closer to hers.
So warm
The starry sky vaguely emerged in my mind again.
Lu Yinghan exhaled a trembling breath and opened her mouth.
"Auntie...I can't go back anymore."
