Chapter 456 Give Him Back a Beautiful Wife
Seeing her like this, Wenxi felt bad too. "Don't worry, Yangyang has already taken the medicine. This is a normal reaction to the medication. He'll be fine once the fever goes down."
Although Su Youling understood, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Yangyang has been frail and sickly since childhood. The worst time was when he had such a high fever that he lost consciousness. He is a piece of her own flesh and blood. As the saying goes, a mother feels the pain of her child's illness more than her own. Now, she wishes she could take Yangyang's place and bear the torment of his illness.
She couldn't help but hold Yangyang's little hand; it was so small, yet it could easily capture her heart.
"Mom," Yangyang called out unconsciously from his hospital bed.
Su Youling felt extremely distressed and immediately leaned over to whisper in his ear, "Yangyang, be good. Mommy is here. With Mommy by your side, you'll feel better soon."
Xingxing and Yueyue, who were behind him, also came forward and held Yangyang's hand together, whispering encouragement to him: "Brother, we are all with you, as are Grandma. You have to get better soon."
Wenxi, watching from the side, felt a pang of heartache and, not wanting to disturb them, quietly withdrew.
She closed the door, leaned her slender body against the corridor wall, relieved the strain on her shoulders, and covered her face with her hands in shame.
Su Youling entrusted her with the care of her three children and Su Hong out of trust, but now... it's hard for her not to blame herself, after all, she was the last one to arrive when the accident happened.
As Wen Xi was feeling down, a strange female voice suddenly came to her ear: "Sister-in-law, don't be sad. You don't have the ability to foresee the future, so how can this be blamed on you?"
sister in law?
She's been in a relationship for over twenty years and doesn't even know when she finally found a partner.
Completely bewildered, I lowered my hand, and what came into view was a face so beautiful it was almost indifferent to human life or death.
There was a sense of being overwhelmed by beauty; the last time I felt this amazed was five years ago when I first met Su Youling.
However, after looking at it for a while, it vaguely seemed familiar.
Wen Xi gave her a questioning look: "You've mistaken me for someone else, haven't you? If I remember correctly, I haven't seen you before."
Qin Yaoruo extended a hand and smiled ambiguously at her: "It is indeed the first time we've met. I'm Qin He's sister. You can just call me Yaoruo, sister-in-law."
The way she was called "sister-in-law" made Wen Xi's face flush. She didn't know whether to shake hands or not, but in the end, she touched hands with hers as a formality and awkwardly explained, "Qin He and I are not in the kind of relationship you think we have."
Qin He hasn't even formally proposed to her, let alone agreed. She has her pride, you know.
"Oh? It seems my brother hasn't won over his future sister-in-law's heart yet," Qin Yaoru wrinkled her delicate nose, making no attempt to hide her disdain for Qin He. "He's so useless. I guess I have to step in myself."
Her blunt words caught Wenxi off guard.
Qin He's younger sister is completely different from his personality, but that's not the point.
What she was more curious about was how Qin He, with his reserved and brooding nature, had brought her up with Qin Yaoruo, but she didn't dare to ask.
Qin Yaoruo, seemingly oblivious to Wen Xi's embarrassment, raised an eyebrow, her delicate face drawing closer to Wen Xi's, her eyes filled with mischief, "Sister-in-law, my brother and Tingxi must have informed you about their trip abroad, right? I immediately rushed over as soon as I heard you were injured..."
#Please do not use incognito mode whenever verification is required!
He rushed over to be her protector.
Wen Xi coughed twice, a little embarrassed: "You can just call me Wen Xi, or Sister Xi is fine too. It's just a minor injury, there's no need for you to make the trip yourself."
"How can that be!" Qin Yaoruo walked over and took her arm as if they were old friends, ignoring the first part of her sentence that asked her to change her address. "Sister-in-law, don't worry. I'll stay in C City to take care of you during this time. I promise that when my brother comes back, I'll give him a beautiful wife who is still in good condition."
Before she could even process the term "sister-in-law," hearing the weighty word "wife" made Wen Xi's face burn even hotter, reaching the roots of her ears. "What wife? Don't talk nonsense!"
Not only did my face turn red, but my heart also started racing.
Qin Yaoruo immediately fell silent and made an "I understand" expression.
Wenxi was helpless and had no way to deal with her.
At Qin Yaoruo's insistence, Wen Xi showed her her wounds. They were indeed not serious; there was only a small bruise on her back and a thin, long cut about five centimeters long on her arm.
The wound has been bandaged and medicine has been applied to my back, so I still feel a slight stinging pain.
Qin Yaoruo took it very seriously and immediately offered to take care of all the physical labor for Wenxi during her recovery period. She didn't give Wenxi a chance to refuse and went to the doctor to get a bunch of medicines. She also ran around getting hot water for her. Her attentiveness was too much for Wenxi to handle.
...
Half an hour later, Su Hong woke up and, despite the aches and pains all over her body, insisted on getting out of bed to see Yangyang.
Yangyang's fever finally subsided, but she was covered in sweat, and her pale face made her look even more pitiful.
Su Youling was wiping his body and changing his clothes, while Xingxing and Yueyue were helping her by handing her towels and changing her water, being incredibly well-behaved and sensible.
Seeing that Xingxing and Yueyue were also injured, Su Hong felt heartbroken. She went over and hugged them both. Looking at Yangyang on the bed, she blamed herself and burst into tears. "Lingling, it's all my fault. I just went downstairs to throw out the trash. Who knew I would be targeted by bad people? I came back to China to take care of my children and ease your burden. Who knew... I would only make things worse."
She became increasingly distressed as she spoke, and gradually found it difficult to breathe.
Su Youling was so frightened that she quickly helped her sit down next to her and kept patting her back to calm down: "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about! It's not your fault at all. These people are after me. They will find a way to harm you no matter what, so in the end, it's because of me that you've been implicated."
At this point, her nose tingled, and she hugged Su Hong, Xingxing, and Yueyue tightly, "If you really..."
She choked up, not daring to say the worst possible outcome, and buried her face in Su Hong's shoulder, afraid that Su Hong would see her tears. "I will never forgive myself in this lifetime."
Su Hong noticed her body trembling slightly. Recalling the hardships she had endured over the years, her heart ached. She gently patted her back as she had comforted her when she was a child. "You told me not to blame myself, but you've blamed yourself. Listen to Mom. I won't cry, and you're not allowed to cry either. If Yangyang wakes up and sees us like this, who knows how upset he will be."
Xingxing and Yueyue also gently patted Su Youling's shoulder, just like her.
Yueyue squeezed between Su Youling and Su Hong and hugged Su Youling tightly: "Mom, don't be sad, okay? If you cry, Yueyue will want to cry too."
Su Youling was afraid of crushing her, so she was forced to get up. Her red eyes clearly showed that she had been crying.
