Li Xiaoyu was astonished, while Li Guohua explained to his two younger sisters, "It is said that she is being controlled by that Tiger Brother from Hong Kong in the hospital. Apart from paying her fixed hospital fees, he won't even let her hire a caregiver."
"It's only because others couldn't bear to see her like this that they occasionally came over to take care of her and feed her a couple of bites. Otherwise, she would have starved to death by now. The reason Lu Ping listens to Brother Hu is because her mother is in his hands, and she has no choice but to obey!"
“Do you remember when she first came here, she was covered in injuries? It’s clear that she didn’t have an easy time with Brother Tiger. The night our dad had the accident, she was the one who rushed him to the hospital with other people.”
"It's already very good that Lu Ping was able to stop the damage in time and prevent our dad from losing his life. She was being blackmailed by Brother Hu, and she had her own difficulties. You two should stop saying so much, considering that she at least realized her mistake!"
Li Guohua spoke up for Lu Ping, but it wasn't really to help Lu Ping.
Instead, she helped Li Junsheng, because Li Junsheng wanted Lu Ping to stay and help run the food processing plant!
These days, there aren't that many talented people; it's rare to find someone who can drive.
That's why Li Junsheng was so keen on getting Lu Ping to work for him, and Li Guohua could understand him!
Li Chunya and Li Xiaoyu fell silent upon hearing this. What their second brother said made sense. The two sisters understood that if Lu Ping hadn't seen the error of her ways, their father would certainly be dead.
The two sisters felt betrayed and deceived by Lu Ping, which made them somewhat uncomfortable and hesitant to trust her again.
Seeing his two younger sisters fall silent, Li Guohua smiled and said, "Don't think that your second brother is speaking up for Lu Ping. I'm speaking up for Dad. You know that Lu Ping has some talent in marketing, and Dad wants to use this talent!"
Li Guohua's words reminded Li Chunya and Li Xiaoyu of the days when their restaurant was targeted by Hao Ziwei and had no customers at all.
It was Lu Ping who came up with the idea. She personally went out and told everyone who passed by that the store was having a promotion, and that's how the store was able to recover some business!
Thinking back to that time, Li Xiaoyu felt that she wasn't just putting on a show; at least she genuinely helped her family's restaurant.
Looking down, Li Xiaoyu saw very faint burn marks on her hand. On the day her father had the accident, Lu Ping had personally bought her burn ointment.
She had absolutely no need to take this charade so seriously. Perhaps during their time together, Lu Ping had developed some genuine feelings for them.
Thinking about all this, Li Xiaoyu couldn't help but soften her heart.
"Alright, then I won't say anything else. Let's give her another chance to redeem herself. If she truly repents, I'm willing to forgive and forget!"
Li Xiaoyu pouted, finally stopping herself from telling Lu Ping to leave.
Li Chunya nodded in agreement, and she smiled as she tapped her sister's nose.
"You're just stubborn but soft-hearted! Never mind, as long as Dad's alright."
Tang Liang, standing to the side, chuckled to himself. How to put it? He just liked Li Xiaoyu's personality; it was quite adorable, wasn't it?
The group talked outside Lu's mother's hospital room, not intending to go in and disturb her.
However, Lu's mother looked at the four young people with curiosity.
I have no idea what they were saying outside the door!
Lu's mother was also very curious about Li Guohua and the others. When they were being held by Cao Hu in the hospital, she couldn't see anyone except the medical staff.
The nurses didn't dare to talk to her much, which meant that Lu's mother hadn't seen any lively young people for a long time.
In Li Junsheng's hospital room, after his children had all left, Li Junsheng felt somewhat awkward facing Lu Ping alone!
Lu Ping didn't think anything was wrong. She saw chicken soup on the bedside table next to Li Jun's sickbed, so she brought it over, sat on the bed, and fed Li Jun with a spoon.
"You got hurt because of me. Let me take care of you while you're in the hospital. That way, I can make up for the mistake of lying to you!"
Looking at the chicken soup that Lu Ping was feeding him, Li Junsheng felt a little uncomfortable.
So he reached out, wanting to take the soup from him.
"It's okay, I'll drink it myself."
Lu Ping shook her head, insisting on taking care of Li Junsheng herself. Li Junsheng had no choice but to drink the soup from the spoon in Lu Ping's hand after a brief argument.
Li Junsheng looked out of the ward. Why hadn't his children returned yet?
Lu Ping fed Li Junsheng some chicken soup to help him recover, and then took a basin to prepare some water to wipe his hands and face.
"When I brought you to the hospital that night, your head was wrapped up tightly and your face wasn't wiped. Let me get you some water and wipe your hands and face a little."
Li Junsheng nodded and waited for Lu Ping to fetch water to wash his hands and face.
Unexpectedly, when Lu Ping returned, she immediately took a towel and wiped Li Junsheng's hands and face, without giving Li Junsheng a chance to refuse.
Only in this way could Lu Ping feel a little better!
"Actually, you don't need to think too much about it. I'm just taking responsibility for the mistakes I made."
Lu Ping whispered something to Li Junsheng, otherwise she would have noticed that Li Junsheng was always avoiding her!
What's there to hide from!
Isn't it good to have someone by your side who cares about you and understands your needs?
Li Junsheng simply smiled and nodded, not intending to say anything more.
Lu Ping, on the other hand, opened up to Li Junsheng without a second thought.
"Actually, I'm very grateful to you. Your willingness to let me stay and help you run the food processing plant is a great opportunity for me to cover my mother's medical expenses. Even if it's just for my own mother, I will do my best to run the processing plant for you!"
“Great! Let’s make money together and benefit each other. I’ve already submitted the acquisition application, and now I’m just waiting for the government’s response.”
Lu Ping nodded repeatedly, feeling that life was becoming more and more hopeful, and the future suddenly seemed bright.
Li Junsheng truly gave her a second life!
After Lu Ping had taken good care of Li Junsheng, Li Guohua and the others returned from outside.
Seeing his second son's tired expression, Li Junsheng knew that he probably hadn't slept for a long time!
"Guohua, I'm all done. You should take Xiaocui, Chunya, and Xiaoyu home to rest. And Tang Liang, our restaurant needs to stay open."
Li Junsheng asked his children to come home, but they were a little worried.
"Dad, are you sure you can manage on your own? Why don't some of us stay behind and take care of you a little longer?"
Li Junsheng shook his head at his children, "No need. If the doctor hadn't told me not to, I would have been discharged and gone home by now. Our restaurant, and Da Ya, Er Ya, and Xiao Wei all need someone to take care of them. Let's go back!"
Li Junsheng insisted, and seeing this, his children simply went home to rest, especially Li Chunya, who hadn't seen her two daughters for a day and a night.
These days, children are still entrusted to others for care!
"Then we'll be leaving. Lu Ping, please take good care of my dad!"
Li Xiaoyu spoke seriously to Lu Ping, and seeing that she was willing to trust her again, Lu Ping quickly promised to take good care of Li Junsheng.
