"Hey, that's a good boy. Here, little dog, here's an apple for you. Eat it."
The sounds inside were rampant; besides Li Jin, there were other people laughing loudly.
Nanzhi gave the butler a wink, and the butler understood. He was also shocked by the actions of the people inside. How could there be such vicious people?
The butler pushed the door open, startling everyone inside, who all looked towards the doorway.
Li Jin sat on the hospital bed, surrounded by his little followers, while Gu Ying was crawling on the floor, an apple rolling down in front of him.
When Nanzhi saw this scene, she felt like killing someone.
When Li Jin saw Nan Zhi arrive, he sneered:
"Isn't this a cripple? What? You've come looking for your dog brother again?"
Nan Zhi gritted her teeth, while Gu Ying stared at Nan Zhi in astonishment.
Even if he was humiliated, he didn't want his sister to see it, and his current behavior made Gu Ying feel embarrassed.
Nanzhi looked at him and beckoned to Gu Ying, "Aying, come here."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ying stood up and was about to walk towards Nan Zhi when she heard Li Jin's displeased voice:
“If you dare to go over there, everything you’ve done today will be in vain. I will make you and your crippled sister suffer a fate worse than death.”
A struggle flashed in Gu Ying's eyes. Then, he looked at Nan Zhi and said, "Sister Xi Xi, you go back first. I'll be back in a little while. Don't worry."
Nan Zhi finally understood that Li Jin was just trying to extort money. Gu Ying had hit him quite hard, but it wasn't serious enough to require hospitalization.
"That's more like it. To be a dog, you have to be a good one. Now your master wants you to crawl on the ground and eat the leftovers. Er Mao, pour them out for him."
As he spoke, Li Jin handed Er Mao the half-eaten boxed lunch he had been eating. Er Mao took it, walked over, and dumped it directly in front of Gu Ying, spilling it on the ground.
Li Jin's face was full of malice. "Gu Ying, if you eat this meal like a puppy today, I won't pursue the matter with you, and I won't make things difficult for you and your so-called sister in the future."
Gu Ying's fists clenched tightly at his sides, a struggle flashing in his eyes. Then, the boy closed his eyes, slowly bent down, and was about to lie on the ground.
"Gu Ying, if you dare to lie down today, I won't sit in this wheelchair anymore, I'll sit with you."
Nan Zhi hated her body; she could barely even walk over.
"Haha, I didn't expect my leftovers to be so popular. You two siblings even fought over them."
Gu Ying froze, turning to look at Nan Zhi in disbelief.
And Nan Zhi was true to her word; she braced herself on the edge of her wheelchair and was about to stand up.
The butler behind them tried to stop her, but Nan Zhi said, "Don't worry about me, Gu Ying. If you trusted me, you wouldn't have come here alone to be insulted by others. In the end, it's because I'm not trusted enough by you. Since you want to humiliate yourself like this, then as your sister, I will naturally suffer the humiliation with you."
Gritting her teeth, Nan Zhi stood shakily on the ground, but her body couldn't support her any longer and she was about to fall.
Gu Ying was horrified. "No!"
He called out and ran over in two quick steps, supporting Nanzhi as she was about to fall.
Unable to hold back his tears, he helped Nanzhi into her wheelchair, his voice choked with sobs as he whispered:
"Why...why? I'm not your brother at all, why are you...being so good to me?"
Nan Zhi knew in her heart that Gu Ying would definitely come. She reached out and touched Gu Ying's head, smiling gently:
"Because I am Aying's older sister, Xixi. Once an older sister, always an older sister. It is only natural for an older sister to protect her younger brother."
Hearing Nan Zhi's explanation, Gu Ying was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but burst into tears, "Sister, sister, I'm sorry... I shouldn't have... I shouldn't have kept it from you, I'm sorry, I was wrong."
From that moment on, a thought arose in Gu Ying's heart: his sister was someone he would always protect. He had to become strong. No matter what the future held, he would make sure his sister was well. She was his own sister, even closer than a biological sister. No one had ever made him feel that he was not alone. Not even Shen Xingmian had ever given him this feeling.
Nanzhi shook her head, reached out and stroked Gu Ying's cheek, wiping away his tears. "Don't cry, Ying. Isn't your sister alright? Your sister is like an unkillable cockroach. No matter what, she'll be fine."
Gu Ying gradually stopped crying, while Li Jin on the bed had long been impatient. "Gu Ying, if you don't eat this meal today, I'll have my dad decide tomorrow that neither of you can go to school, and your disabled sister can't go to school either."
Nan Zhi stared intently at Li Jin on the bed, her eyes deep. She would settle this score.
Li Jin felt a chill run down his spine as Nan Zhi stared at him.
"If you keep looking, you cripple, I'll gouge your eyes out."
Nan Zhi gazed at the other person with a cool look in her eyes, and said slowly:
"Looking at you like this, I feel truly sorry for you."
Li Jin was taken aback, not understanding Nan Zhi's meaning. Nan Zhi ignored him and continued:
"Someone like you has probably enjoyed bullying others since you were a child, right? I'd like to ask, that's because your father is the bureau chief. But if your father weren't the bureau chief, would you still be able to live so freely?"
Nan Zhi's words had a hidden meaning, and Li Jin was immediately enraged when he heard them. "You're talking nonsense! Just wait until I tell my father, and he'll have you thrown in jail."
Nan Zhi's eyes flickered slightly, then she lowered her head and subtly pressed a button on her phone. "Oh? It seems your father can arrest whoever he wants?"
"Hmph, of course, my dad is the biggest. He has tons of guys like you. He could kill you in jail."
"I'm so scared," Nanzhi said, covering her mouth.
"If I give you money, will you let me go?"
Nanzhi pretended to be scared and looked at Li Jin pitifully.
Li Jin was overjoyed. He was extremely smug. "Money? Heh, I have a house full of money. Why would I need yours? If you don't crawl on the ground and eat this leftover food today, I'll call my dad right now."
"Your dad is really amazing, but my dad is pretty good too."
Nanzhi looked at Li Jin with a smile.
Li Jin was unwilling to admit defeat. He had relied on his father since he was a child, and now, upon hearing Nan Zhi's words, he couldn't help but retort, "Can your father arrest people? Does anyone give him gifts? Does he have a lot of money?"
"shut up."
As Li Jin was speaking, a deep, resonant voice rang out from the doorway.
Everyone looked over, and Li Jin immediately became happy, "Dad!"
Li Jin's father was middle-aged. He walked in with a stern face, glared at Nan Zhi fiercely, and then walked to the bedside. "If you cause me any more trouble, you're going back to your grandma's house in the countryside."
"No, Dad, it was those two who bullied me and beat me up like this."
Li Jin immediately complained, pointing at Nan Zhi and Gu Ying, saying, "My friends are all witnesses. Dad, you saw the terrible state I was in that day. Please help me teach them a lesson."
