"Sis, Gousheng is a good guy, not like what you said. He has excellent grades and will definitely have a bright future."
Tang Xin scoffed, "What a promising future? Only you believe his nonsense. Look at him now, he's not keeping his word. It's so late and he still hasn't come. He used to say he'd take you home every day because he was worried about bad guys watching you. Now he's completely forgotten about you. Maybe he's on a date with a female classmate right now. And here you are, waiting like an idiot."
Tang Yue knew her sister didn't like Gou Sheng, so she looked at Tang Xin and said, "Sister, you should go back and cook! If you don't go back soon, we really won't have anything to eat tonight."
"Okay, I'll head back now. If Gousheng doesn't come, remember to come back early."
Tang Yue nodded.
When Gou Sheng reached his doorstep, he was completely exhausted.
He had numerous wounds, big and small, and his back ached so much that he couldn't straighten up. He had already reached his limit by walking home.
Gou Sheng had originally planned to send a message to Tang Yue that he couldn't go today and that she should go home early tonight.
But she couldn't hold on any longer, and before she could even knock on the door in the yard, she collapsed.
Su Li heard a "thump" outside and quickly opened the front door, where she saw Gou Sheng lying on the ground.
She ran up to him quickly: "Gousheng? Gousheng? What happened to you?"
Su Li saw that his face was covered in injuries, indicating that he had been in a fight.
She hurriedly took Gou Sheng to the hospital.
When Gou Sheng woke up again, it was already noon the next day.
The doctor said he had two broken ribs in his waist and his heel was dislocated.
He needs to recuperate in the hospital.
When Gousheng opened his eyes, he saw Su Li sitting on the edge of the bed. He was a little afraid to look his sister in the eye.
"What happened? Who did all these injuries to you?"
Gousheng knew his sister hated being lied to, so he didn't dare lie and told the truth: "I ran into a group of thugs after school today."
"Why did they contact you?"
As soon as Su Li finished speaking, she saw Gou Sheng's expression change.
He hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't say it.
Su Li knew that the only person who could elicit such a reaction from him was probably Tang Yue! After all, she was someone he cherished and thought about his whole life.
"Is it because of Tang Yue?"
Gou Sheng stared at Su Li in disbelief; "Sister, how...how did you know?"
Su Li smiled and said, "We've been together for so long, do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Gou Sheng's face turned red instantly.
"Alright, tell me! What exactly happened?"
Gou Sheng briefly explained what had happened to Su Li.
"Don't be so reckless next time. What if they really cripple you?"
Gou Sheng grinned, which aggravated his wound, causing him to hiss.
Su Li looked at his face, so swollen that his eyes were barely visible, and felt both amused and annoyed.
"Alright, stop moving around. I've already asked someone to get you a few days off. You should rest and recuperate in the hospital during this time."
"Sister, I have to go help out at Yueyue's place every day. I didn't go yesterday, and she must be very worried. Could you ask someone to tell her that I have something to do these next few days and can't go? Tell her to go home early, and please don't tell her that I'm in the hospital, I'm afraid she'll worry."
Su Li, "......."
Seeing Gou Sheng's expectant eyes, Su Li nodded.
Su Li hired a caregiver to look after Gou Sheng, and the next day after school, she went straight to the place where the Tang sisters sold clothes.
There was also an average-looking man standing next to them.
As Su Li approached, she heard Tang Xin say to Tang Yue, "I told you that Gou Sheng is no good, but you didn't believe me. Look, he hasn't come yet, and you're still making excuses for him. Maybe he's already found a prettier girlfriend at school."
"If you ask me, Zhang Dong is the best. Look, he's been helping us these past two days."
Seeing the man beside Tang Yue, Su Li smiled and said, "Of course, of course. My feelings for Comrade Tang are genuine. I'll come to help you every day from now on."
Tang Xin looked at Zhang Dong with satisfaction, then said to Tang Yue, "Yueyue, did you hear that? Look how devoted Comrade Zhang Dong is to you. Gou Sheng can't compare at all."
Tang Yue threw the clothes she was holding onto the pile on the ground and said angrily, "Sister, can you please stop talking?"
Seeing her sister angry, Tang Xin didn't think she had done anything wrong and continued, "Why can't I say it? I said that Gou Sheng is just a young punk who lives under someone else's roof. He's not good enough for you at all. Don't be silly."
Tang Yue was genuinely angry. Gou Sheng, for goodness' sake? She knew it better than anyone else.
Although he hadn't come these past two days, she knew something must have happened to him.
But she was tongue-tied and really didn't know how to refute her sister.
She could only glare angrily at Tang Yue; "Sister, I told you I don't want to hear you say any more of this."
Su Li overheard the conversation from behind and then walked up to them. "Tang Xin, right? You're really making a fool of yourself by comparing our Gou Sheng to the man next to you. Our Gou Sheng is good-looking, well-educated, and has a bright future ahead of him. This clothing sales job was arranged for you by our Gou Sheng, wasn't it? I've never seen anyone eat from a bowl and then curse its master before."
Tang Xin was somewhat surprised to see Su Li, but she quickly calmed down.
“Su Zhiqing! I know you side with Gousheng, but he really is not a good match for my sister.”
Tang Yue tugged at her older sister's sleeve, signaling her to say less.
Then he looked at Su Li and asked, "Sister Su, has Gou Sheng encountered anything these past two days?"
Seeing the concern in the girl's eyes, which seemed genuine, Su Li said, "Him? He's in the hospital now. He was beaten up by Zhang Dong and his gang, and he probably won't be able to get out of bed for at least half a month."
Originally, she intended to listen to Gou Sheng's suggestion not to say this, but she just couldn't stand Tang Xin's attitude.
Hearing this, Tang Yue felt a pang of heartache. She knew he wouldn't refuse to come without a reason.
"Which hospital is he in now? I'll go see him in a bit."
Then she looked at Zhang Dong beside her and said, "How could you instruct your underlings to beat up Gousheng? Let me tell you again, there's no future for us. Don't come here again, and don't cause any more trouble for Gousheng."
At this moment, Zhang Dong stared at Su Li's face without blinking.
There are such beautiful women in the world. I thought Tang Yue was already very beautiful.
Unexpectedly, Gou Sheng's older sister is even more beautiful.
If he had met her sooner, he would have gone straight to pursue this older woman.
Thinking of his men, who had no sense of propriety at all, daring to even attack the fairy's brother, he knew he had to teach them a lesson when he got back.
"Okay, I won't come looking for you anymore, and I won't bother that Gou Sheng either."
