Si Muyang had a warm smile on his face. He heard footsteps coming from the end of the corridor, and he turned around and waved to Cheng Xiaokui.
"Xiao Kui, you've come! Girl, you've finally deigned to come see me!"
Cheng Xiaokui walked to Si Muyang's side, her eyes widening in surprise, "Wow! You can walk again? You recovered so quickly?"
Si Muyang reached out and flicked Cheng Xiaokui's nose. "Is this fast? I think it's too slow! If I'm any later, I'm afraid someone might take advantage of the situation!"
His sharp gaze fell upon Song Jingchuan.
With one hand in his pocket, Song Jingchuan said, "Shouldn't we take advantage of the situation? Just because you can't protect someone doesn't mean someone else can!!"
Cheng Xiaokui reached out and tugged at Si Muyang's arm. She said, "Song Jingchuan genuinely helped me; you should thank him!"
Before Si Muyang could react, Song Jingchuan immediately said, "I don't want him to thank me. Xiao Kui, your thanks are enough!"
He glanced at Si Muyang; this guy recovered really quickly. Faster than he expected.
Si Muyang said, "It's not like anyone wants to thank you. I'm not thanking you! If I hadn't been injured, you wouldn't have had to do this job."
Xiao Kui! I couldn't attend your mother's funeral, I owe you that! I'll make it up to you later.
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Who asked you to compensate me? You're injured, so you should take good care of yourself. So many people helped me with my mother's funeral, it doesn't matter if you're not there. Once my mother's funeral is over, I can come and take care of you."
Si Muyang said, "That's great. Do you know how much I've missed you these past few days?"
He reached out and ruffled Cheng Xiao Kui's hair.
Cheng Xiao Kui said with a smile, "Then I'll stay and take care of you. But..."
She suddenly remembered her mission. She still had a mission to complete. If she left, who would stay with Cheng Chun Kui 24 hours a day?
She hesitated before saying, "Um... how about in a few more days? I still have some things to take care of."
Si Muyang's face immediately turned cold. He said, "What do you have that's more important than me?"
Cheng Xiao Kui pursed her lips, unsure how to explain to Si Muyang that they hadn't told him about their operation, and that her reason for leaving was to go home to handle her mother's funeral.
Seeing Cheng Xiaokui hesitate, Si Muyang pressed his thin lips into a straight line and asked, "Why can't you even tell me? Is this a secret between you and Song Jingchuan? Is there something he can know that I can't?"
Song Jingchuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Hey, you know what, there are things you can't know, but I can."
"Xiao Kui, let's not tell him. This is a secret between the two of us."
Cheng Xiao Kui glared angrily at Song Jing Chuan; this guy was just there to cause her trouble.
She said, "Don't talk nonsense! What's wrong? It's just that my mother's funeral is over, but there are still some things at home that I haven't taken care of."
There's also my family business. My mother used to have a small stall that brought in two or three hundred yuan a day.
I want to continue running that stall, and give the income there to my younger brother.
But my brother is in a situation where he can't run the business himself, so I need to help him run it for a while.
Once he's fully capable of managing his own business, I won't need to look after it for him anymore.
You know how business is; once you've built up a following, if your stall is closed for too long, your regular customers might stop coming.
She reached out and tugged at Si Muyang's sleeve, explaining her difficulties in detail.
Si Muyang's face revealed an undisguised displeasure. "For your brother's business, you've abandoned me in the hospital and are ignoring me? Cheng Xiaokui, what exactly is our relationship?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "It's a romantic relationship! Once my family matters are settled, I'll come and take care of you."
Si Muyang said, "Once you've finished dealing with your family's affairs, I'll be fine too!"
Song Jingchuan said, "You're a grown man, so it's good that you're all better. You only have a few injuries, why do you need several women to take care of you?"
Have some shame! Any man could tough it out with this injury even without anyone to take care of him!
Si Muyang retorted, "Song Jingchuan, if you're so tough, you'll suffer the same injury as me. If you say that again, I promise I won't let anyone take care of you."
Song Jingchuan said, "Tch! Why would I get hurt? I didn't eat anything."
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Stop arguing! Song Jingchuan, when can Si Muyang be discharged from the hospital? If he can be discharged, I will take him to my house and take care of him."
She came up with a win-win solution: as long as Si Muyang could stay at her house, she could take care of him and keep an eye on Cheng Chun Kui.
Song Jingchuan looked Si Muyang up and down and said, "Judging from this, he can be discharged in another week. However, it's also possible that he'll recover too quickly and be discharged early."
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "That'll only take a few days!"
She reached out and patted Si Muyang on the shoulder, saying, "Brother, hang in there! Try to get discharged in a week, and I'll take care of you at home! How about that?"
Si Muyang said, "I just want you to take care of me in the hospital."
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Be good! Listen to me! Something really has come up at home. Otherwise, I would have stayed to take care of you!"
Song Jingchuan couldn't help but laugh out loud. He drawled, "That's right, that's right, you have to be good! Good baby, be obedient!"
This remark clearly enraged Si Muyang, who raised his fist to strike Song Jingchuan.
Startled, Cheng Xiaokui quickly grabbed Si Muyang, fearing he might lose his balance and fall.
At this time, Si Muyang was still practicing walking, and he couldn't even walk properly, let alone hit someone.
Sure enough, Si Muyang lost his balance and when Cheng Xiaokui hugged him, he fell on top of her, slamming her against the wall.
The sudden scene made Song Yalan quickly lower her head, not daring to look over.
Song Jingchuan was so angry that small flames seemed to be rising from his head. He originally wanted to anger Si Muyang, but he didn't expect to bring benefits to Si Muyang instead.
He quickly stepped forward, pulled Cheng Xiaokui away, and helped Si Muyang.
He said, “Xiao Kui, you’re not very strong. I’ll help him back to his room. With his physical condition, why is he wandering around everywhere? He should go back to bed and rest!”
Without saying a word, he helped Si Muyang into the room.
Si Muyang's body had not yet recovered. He had been practicing walking for half a day, but he had long since exhausted his strength.
He wanted to hit Song Jingchuan again, but after clenching his fist and weighing his strength, he realized that at this moment, his strength was clearly insufficient to subdue Song Jingchuan.
Looking at Si Muyang's fist, Song Jingchuan said, "What, you want to hit me again? Once you're healed, we'll have a one-on-one fight outside! Xiao Kui, let's go!"
Cheng Xiao Kui felt that if she stayed any longer, it would only deepen the conflict between Si Muyang and Song Jingchuan.
She could only say, "Muyang, take good care of your injuries. We'll be able to see each other again in a week at most!"
After she finished speaking, she waved to Si Muyang.
