Chapter 216 You don't mean to make her my stepmother, do you?
After hearing Lu Yunqi's words, Song Xu really wanted to kick her to death. He didn't kick her, but he kicked Lu Yunqi away. "Lu Yunqi, I think you've gone crazy."
Without Lu Yunqi's interference, Song Xu walked quickly towards Lin Xi's ward. He was uneasy. Why were Lu Zhentao and Lu Yunzhou both looking for Lin Xi? Had something happened?
Song Xu quickly entered the ward. A group of people were gathered around the bed. He was startled. "Xi Xi!"
He ran over and squeezed to the front, where he saw Lin Xi lying quietly on the hospital bed with her eyes closed.
"Xixi, what's wrong?"
"Xixi fainted when she saw blood," Bai Tiantian said guiltily.
She had been taking care of Lin Xi for so long that Lin Xi fainted, and she was afraid that Song Xu would lash out at her.
"You saw blood?" Song Xu remembered that there seemed to be blood on Lu Yunqi's face. "Is it Lu Yunqi's blood?"
Bai Tiantian nodded, stealing a glance at Lu Zhentao. This Uncle Lu really slapped Lu Yunqi hard just now. Wasn't he supposed to dote on Lu Yunqi? How could he be so ruthless?
Lu Zhentao kept a sullen face. Looking at the unconscious Lin Xi, he felt that she looked more and more like Zhou Ruolan. He recalled the time when they first met, which was both innocent and sweet.
He swore to Zhou Ruolan that he would only love her for the rest of his life.
He wanted to say that if he couldn't do it, he would suffer a terrible death, but before he could finish, Zhou Ruolan covered his mouth.
She said if she couldn't do it, she would leave, and they could part amicably; she couldn't bear to see him die.
It seems he only ever loved Zhou Ruolan in his life, yet he didn't treat her well.
“Sister-in-law,” Song Xu looked at Bai Tiantian, “how did Xixi see the blood?”
How could she see blood if she didn't leave her hospital room?
Bai Tiantian hummed and hawed for a while, "We heard a commotion outside, and Xixi said she was too bored, so I went out with her. Then we saw Lu Yunqi, and then Lu Yunqi started cursing at us. Later, Xixi couldn't stand it and went over and slapped Lu Yunqi."
Song Xu raised an eyebrow. Wait a minute, Xi Xi's hand isn't that big. "Did Xi Xi hit Lu Yunqi's face? Did she make him bleed?"
Bai Tiantian nodded, then shook her head, and pointed at Lu Zhentao, "Uncle Lu slapped her again, which made Lu Yunqi bleed. Then Xixi fainted after seeing the blood, and it was Uncle Lu who carried Xixi back."
Everyone looked at Lu Zhentao.
"Uncle Lu, thank you." Song Xu expressed his gratitude to Lu Zhentao.
Lu Zhentao finally reacted, "It's nothing, just something I did on the spur of the moment. Xiaoqi went too far today. It's my fault for not raising her properly. When Lin Xi wakes up, please apologize to her for me. This kind of thing won't happen again."
Song Xu nodded calmly, "Okay."
Lu Zhentao turned around and saw Lu Yunzhou. "Yunzhou, when did you arrive?"
Lu Yunzhou scratched his brow. "Just arrived."
Lu Zhentao knew that Lu Yunzhou and Song Xu had a good relationship, so he didn't think much of it. What he was worried about was Lu Yunqi. "Since Lin Xi is alright, let's go."
“Okay.” Lu Yunzhou followed Lu Zhentao out of the ward. As they were about to leave, he turned back to look at Song Xu.
Song Xu met Lu Yunzhou's gaze, nodded to him, knowing that he was worried about Lin Xi, and would give him news after Lin Xi woke up.
Lu Yunzhou withdrew his gaze and left with Lu Zhentao.
When they returned to Lu Yunqi's hospital room, only two bodyguards remained; Lu Yunqi was nowhere to be seen.
Lu Zhentao asked them, "Where is Lu Yunqi?"
"Miss has entered her ward," the bodyguard replied.
Lu Zhentao pushed open the door and entered the ward, and Lu Yunzhou followed him in.
Lu Yunqi was lying on the hospital bed, crying loudly, while the caregiver stood helplessly by her side.
"Dad, did you really hit Xiaoqi?" Lu Yunzhou was very surprised. Even if Lu Zhentao knew that Lin Xi was his biological daughter, his attitude towards Lu Yunqi would not have changed so much.
Lu Zhentao hummed in agreement. "The things she said to Lin Xi were really nasty."
“Dad,” Lu Yunqi heard their conversation, looked up, her face covered in tears, blood, and snot, “What’s wrong with me scolding her? She’s the one who knocked me unconscious. Didn’t you promise me yesterday that you would teach Lin Xi a lesson?”
"Did Xixi knock you out?" Lu Yunzhou asked, feigning surprise.
Lu Yunqi nodded vigorously, "It was her. She choked me, grabbed my hair, and slammed my head against the ground, which knocked me unconscious."
"Impossible!" Lu Yunzhou immediately retorted, "Xi Xi is so gentle and kind, how could she hit someone? Besides, I checked the surveillance video, there was no such thing."
"Brother, would you rather believe a stranger than your own sister?" Lu Yunqi was furious. "Song Xu might have tampered with the surveillance video. Would I really need to frame Lin Xi?"
"Xiaoqi, Song Xu and Lin Xi's relationship is very stable. Don't put all your eggs in one basket," Lu Yunzhou advised earnestly.
"I was knocked unconscious by Lin Xi, it's true, it's true!" Lu Yunqi screamed. "Lu Yunzhou, why don't you believe me! Are you bewitched by that vixen Lin Xi?"
“Dad, and you too,” Lu Yunqi looked at Lu Zhentao again, “How old are you? How could you fall for Lin Xi? She’s the same age as me. You don’t mean to make her my stepmother, do you?”
"Lu Yunqi, shut up!" Lu Yunzhou scolded, "How could you say that about your father?"
"Isn't that right?" Lu Yunqi gasped for breath, almost screaming as she pointed at Lu Zhentao. "He slapped me for Lin Xi and then hugged her. Doesn't that mean he's after that slut Lin Xi?"
Lu Zhentao walked over in a few steps, raised his hand, and slapped Lu Yunqi hard across the face again.
This slap was delivered with full force, knocking Lu Yunqi off the hospital bed and onto the floor.
Lu Yunqi spat out a mouthful of blood and a tooth.
Lu Yunzhou's eye twitched. What was going on? They were too ruthless.
“Dad, you hit her too hard,” Lu Yunzhou said, feigning distress as he looked at Lu Yunqi, who was about to faint. “Xiaoqi, she…”
"I think she's gone mad!" Lu Zhentao said angrily. "How dare she slander me like this."
“Xiaoqi does have a bit of a loose tongue,” Lu Yunzhou said, feigning concern. “We’ve spoiled her.”
"Yunzhou, go ahead and get busy," Lu Zhentao said, not wanting Lu Yunzhou to continue contacting Lu Yunqi. "Leave things here to me."
"dad……"
Lu Yunzhou wanted to say something more, but Lu Zhentao waved his hand and said, "Go on, you don't need to worry about this. I'll take responsibility for the mistakes I made."
Lu Yunzhou frowned. He felt that Lu Zhentao's words had a hidden meaning, but he couldn't figure out what it meant.
Lu Yunzhou is gone.
Lu Zhentao looked coldly at Lu Yunqi, raised his foot and stepped on her head, "You dare to curse Xixi? Don't you know who you are?"
