Chapter 42 Chapter 42 "Then can we leave as soon as possible...
He didn't expect that he would be so good-tempered now. He actually felt that being a dog was not bad. If being a dog could legitimately "bite" her, then he would be willing to be a dog every day.
Shen Xingchuan felt that the drug must have some side effects. He seemed to have turned into a masochist. He was excited when she slapped him, and he was also excited when she insulted him. Now he was starting to get restless again.
But he couldn't really turn into a dog.
Shen Xingchuan offered a bait: "Yingxia, as compensation, I can help you and your sister-in-law leave here, and make sure that your brother can't disturb your new life."
She was always sharp: "What are the conditions?"
"Dating is not allowed during college, not even flirting." Remembering what she had just said, Shen Xingchuan added emphatically, "Sleeping is definitely not allowed."
Yao Yingxia laughed out loud: "What if I break the agreement?"
His face turned grim: "You don't want to know the consequences of doing that."
"Then I don't need your help."
He wanted to strangle her to death, but in the end he just slammed the door and left. Shen Xingchuan calmed down in the living room for a long time and finally realized that something was wrong. He clearly didn't lock the door this time, but Yao Yingxia didn't come out. This was too strange.
He immediately went upstairs and returned to the bedroom, where he saw Yao Yingxia lying on the bed with her eyes closed. If it weren't for her overly red face, Shen Xingchuan would almost have thought she was asleep.
"Yingxia?" He touched her forehead and neck, and then he realized that her whole body was hot.
In fact, her body was also very hot just now. The temperature of her palms was quite high when she hit him, but Shen Xingchuan just thought that she had stayed in the bathroom for too long and the heat had not dissipated yet. Only now did he realize that she had been having a fever.
The car sped into Chuanhe Private Hospital, where Yao Yingxia underwent a comprehensive examination. He listened silently to the doctor's report: "The fever is 41 degrees Celsius, and the weakened immune system has caused pneumonia."
The doctor paused, then added, "There are also minor lacerations."
He was silent for a long time before asking, "How long will it take for the fever to go away?"
"It's hard to say. It will probably recur for a while, maybe three to five days if it's fast."
The doctor quickly left the room. He sat down in front of the bed, held her hand that wasn't receiving the IV, and placed it against his cheek: "Little niece, I really should get the shot."
Her palms were cold, just like her heart.
Perhaps she felt a little warmth, her hand gently stroked his face, she looked like she wanted to cry, and she called out "Mom" in her sleep.
His heart ached. If Yao Yingxia could wake up at this moment, he would agree unconditionally to any request she made.
Shen Xingchuan put her hand back into the quilt and dialed a phone with a gloomy face. Unexpectedly, the phone rang so close to him. He looked up and saw Shen Changhe standing at the door.
His brother was looking at him and smiling, looking as gentlemanly and modest as ever: "Xiaochuan, did you enjoy yourself last night?"
Shen Xingchuan lowered his head and said nothing, showing no emotion. By the time Shen Changhe realized something was wrong, it was too late to dodge. The punch was fast and fierce, almost using all his strength, and his mouth was full of salty taste.
Shen Changhe's face was distorted with pain, and he frowned at his brother: "Xiaochuan, are you destroying the bridge after crossing it?"
Shen Xingchuan grabbed his collar and pressed his brother against the wall: "Why?"
Shen Changhe looked at him calmly, "From childhood to adulthood, no matter what you want, I will help you get it." He smiled, his teeth covered in blood, looking a little scary, "After all, you are my dearest brother."
"I don't need your help."
"Really? Xiaochuan, she's as hard-hearted as her mother. If you follow the rules, maybe three to five years, ten to eight years, and nothing will come of it. Can you really endure that long? I'm just being the bad guy for you, speeding up the whole process."
He couldn't deny that what his brother said was true. Facing Yao Yingxia, his patience was running out. If she really fell in love with someone else, that would be the end of his patience.
Shen Xingchuan finally released his grip on his collar.
Shen Changhe wiped the blood from his mouth: "Xiaochuan, you have to be grateful. If it wasn't me, it would have been Qingyuan who slept with Yao Yingxia last night. Are you really willing to accept that?"
He looked at his brother with sharp eyes: "How did you know Qingyuan was here too?"
He shrugged and told the truth, "Suxi rarely asks me for help, so I can't refuse. But after all, I'm more inclined towards you." Shen Changhe sighed, "It's a pity that Qingyuan was so eager to save people that he tried to climb from the terrace to the next room and fell downstairs."
Seeing his brother's indifferent look, Shen Changhe couldn't help but sigh that in some ways, Xiaochuan was even more cruel than him. He kindly reminded: "Qingyuan fell on his head and is still not conscious. You have to be careful of your sister."
Now he is not afraid of anyone except Yao Yingxia.
Shen Xingchuan sorted out the cause and effect and came to a conclusion: "Did your sister-in-law offend you? Because she refused to bear your child?"
Shen Changhe did not argue: "Yao Yingxia is an accomplice."
Then he saw his brother's brows droop: "So you are going to humiliate her like this?"
Shen Changhe swore: "How can sleeping with you be considered an insult? Shouldn't this be an honor for Yao Yingxia?"
Shen Xingchuan seemed to be meeting him for the first time, as if he was looking at a stranger: "Sister-in-law is so pitiful."
Hearing him mention Xu Nian, Shen Changhe couldn't help but sneer: "Xiaochuan, don't help them and their daughter out of guilt. Once Yao Yingxia is out of your control, she won't even look at you again." This was his last advice.
Just at this moment, Shen Changhe's phone rang again, and the caller was Xu Nian.
Today at noon was the time they were supposed to go home. Seeing that her daughter had not returned yet and had not answered the phone, Xu Nian had no choice but to contact Shen Changhe. However, after making more than ten calls, he did not answer the phone, deliberately trying to make her anxious.
Shen Changhe muted his phone, and soon Shen Xingchuan's phone rang again. He answered it and called out "Sister-in-law".
Xu Nian on the other side was already extremely anxious. Her usually gentle voice became sharp. Even without the speakerphone on, Shen Changhe could clearly hear her voice: "Xiaochuan, is Xia Xia with you? Why hasn't she answered the phone? I just called your brother, sister, and Qingyuan, but no one answered. Did something happen to you?"
There was no way to hide this matter. Shen Xingchuan said calmly, "Qingyuan accidentally fell down the mountain yesterday. Yingxia was so worried that she got a fever and was admitted to the hospital."
Just as Xu Nian was about to ask for the specific address, he heard Shen Xingchuan suddenly call out "Brother" and then interrupted the call.
Shen Changhe's usually calm face was drowned in pain. He slowly turned around and looked at his sister in disbelief: "Suxi?"
I saw that she was holding a fruit knife in her hand, and her light blue T-shirt was dotted with blood. That was the blood that came out when she stabbed the knife into her brother's chest and pulled it out.
Shen Suxi's expression was not as crazy as before. She even looked very calm. She calmly asked him, "Brother, how have I wronged you?"
She originally came to settle accounts with her brother, but unexpectedly she happened to hear Shen Changhe's high-sounding talk, and then she realized that he was the culprit.
The palm and the back of the hand are all flesh, Xiaochuan is his younger brother, isn't she also his sister? Why should he be partial to Xiaochuan and hurt her Qingyuan to such an extent?
Perhaps the gunshot pierced an artery near the heart, and Shen Changhe's shirt was soon soaked with blood. Shen Xingchuan supported his brother and called for passing medical staff to come and help.
Shen Changhe clutched his chest in agony, yet he was still able to speak: "Suxi, do you actually want to kill me?"
Shen Suxi did not answer the question directly, but wiped the blood from the knife on herself: "Qingyuan just woke up, and the first thing he said after seeing me was - 'Who are you'."
She began to laugh: "My Qingyuan doesn't recognize me anymore." Shen Suxi raised the knife high again, "Brother, you pay me with your life!"
…
It was three days later that Yao Yingxia regained consciousness. She stared blankly at the snow-white ceiling until a hand rested on her forehead. "Xia Xia, are you feeling better?"
Hearing her mother's voice, she nodded with relief. In her confusion, she still remembered what happened that night. Afraid of being noticed by Xu Nian, she lowered her eyes and concealed all her emotions.
Xu Nian's voice sounded somewhat happy: "Xia Xia, I have three pieces of good news. The college entrance examination results came out yesterday. You are in the top 100 in the province, so getting into S University should be no problem."
A faint smile finally appeared on Yao Yingxia's frail face, feeling that her years of hard work had paid off. "Any other good news?"
"Qingyuan has woken up, you don't have to worry too much, the doctor said he is in good health."
She was a little confused when she heard this: "Qingyuan is in the hospital?"
Xu Nian looked at her daughter worriedly: "Xia Xia is really confused because of the fever. Don't you remember? On Qingyuan's birthday, you went hiking together, and he accidentally fell and hit his head."
Yao Yingxia's face turned pale. In her last memory, Shen Qingyuan was still on that terrace, smashing the glass frantically.
Did he fall down afterwards?
To save her?
She closed her eyes in discomfort, feeling short of breath, and then heard Xu Nian say, "Suxi may have been stimulated by Qingyuan's incident. She seems to have mental problems. She stabbed Shen Changhe with a knife a few days ago."
Xu Nian's eyes were surprisingly bright. She looked at her daughter for a while and laughed out loud together.
There really isn't any better news than this.
Yao Yingxia asked expectantly, "Will Shen Changhe die?"
Xu Nian shook his head: "I don't know yet, but he was seriously injured. The doctor said that although the heart was not stabbed, the nearby aorta was injured. He was bleeding profusely and was rescued for two days. He is still in the ICU."
Yao Yingxia held her mother's hand and congratulated her: "Then can we leave as soon as possible?"
Xu Nian nodded: "There is no better time than now."
Now the only trouble was Shen Xingchuan. She thought quietly for a while and decided to visit Shen Qingyuan first.
At sunset, the golden sunlight illuminated the entire ward. The boy sat on the bed, looking at the sunset intently.
As if he noticed someone was looking at him, he suddenly turned his head, and then his eyes lit up and he smiled and called her, "Sister!"
He rarely smiled like this before, his smile was pure and bright, as if he had no worries at all.
And she hadn't heard this name for a long time. Yao Yingxia felt as if she was in another world. Why would Shen Qingyuan call her sister?
She walked closer in a daze, pointed at herself and asked, "Are you calling me?"
Shen Qingyuan nodded, and her smile became even brighter as she approached him: "I recognize you, you are my sister."
Xu Nian, who followed, was surprised. He then sighed and whispered to her, "Qingyuan has lost his memory. He can't even remember his mother, but he still remembers you."
Her heart ached slightly, and her expression stiffened. The boy noticed her change of mood and quickly held her hand and asked, "What's wrong, sister?"
Yao Yingxia reached out and touched his head: "It's okay, sister is just worried about your health. Qingyuan needs to take good care of himself and be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible."
The boy nodded and kept asking her questions. It turned out that apart from the fact that she was his "sister", he didn't remember anything about her past.
On second thought, this was probably a relief for Shen Qingyuan. He forgot everything in the past, the pain that Shen Suxi had brought him, and also forgot that he had once loved himself deeply.
She can always be Shen Qingyuan's sister.
The boy didn't let her go until he felt a little sleepy.
Yao Yingxia said goodbye to him with a smile: "Qingyuan, goodbye."
He looked at her reluctantly without blinking: "Sister, can you come to see me tomorrow?"
She said, “Try your best.”
After returning to the ward, while Xu Nian went out to buy food, she went into the bathroom, turned the water temperature to the lowest, and started taking a shower.
