Chapter 561 Zhuang Chaoying got into a fight
Ever since she severed ties with Zhuang's mother and Zhuang Ganmei, Zhuang Hualin felt refreshed, but she was a little worried when she saw Zhuang Chaoying still looked listless.
When she was talking to Zhu Xiu Yu on the phone, she told her about this.
Zhu Xiuyu was also a little confused. In her opinion, Zhuang Chaoying should be very comfortable now and should not have such emotions. However, she was also very busy and had no time to care about Zhuang Chaoying's emotional problems.
Until Zhuang Hualin called her again and told her that something had happened.
That day, when Zhuang Hualin returned home, Zhuang Chaoying, who was supposed to be home first, did not come home.
At first she didn't take it seriously, but when it was almost eight o'clock and Zhuang Chaoying still hadn't returned, she became anxious and asked Xiangdong to ride his bike to the school to ask.
Xiangdong came back shortly after he went out.
He didn't ride a bike, but pushed the bike and walked slowly back with Zhuang Chaoying. He met Zhuang Chaoying not long after he went out.
At first glance, Zhuang Chaoying's white shirt was wrinkled and dirty, his glasses were crooked on his face, with only one lens left. A closer look revealed that there were wounds on his face.
Xiangdong was so anxious that he asked: "Brother, you are in trouble!"
Zhuang Chaoying shook his head.
Xiangdong immediately thought of Zhuang Ganmei and shouted angrily, "Zhuang Ganmei? He beat me! I'll go find him!"
After saying this, Xiangdong was about to get on his bicycle. Zhuang Chaoying held Xiangdong's handlebars and shook his head again:
"It's not him, go home and tell him."
Zhuang Chaoying walked forward with his head down. Seeing that they were not far from home, Xiangdong pushed the cart and followed him silently.
When Zhuang Hualin saw the two of them walking back like that, she felt something was wrong and hurried over to see what was happening. She took Zhuang Chaoying's briefcase with one hand and helped him up with the other.
When we got into the house, we saw that the injury was quite serious. The left eye was bruised, and there were small scratches and bloodstains on the bruise. It was probably caused by the broken glass of the glasses.
Zhuang Hualin works as a nurse. She was calm and steady. Without saying a word, she took out the medicine box and started treating the wound.
Zhuang Chaoying remained silent, and Zhuang Hualin did not ask any questions while he was handling the case. Only after he had finished did he ask:
"Brother, if you have anything to say, tell us and we will help you find a solution."
Zhuang Chaoying still said nothing, and lay down on the bed with his clothes on, saying only one sentence:
"Hua Lin, go ask for leave from school for me tomorrow. Just say I'm sick and won't be going to work before school starts. Your salary will be deducted as needed."
Zhuang Hualin knew that as a teacher in the senior year, he still had a few days of classes to attend and was on duty.
But she agreed and immediately turned around to call Zhu Xiu Yu.
As soon as the call was connected, Zhuang Hualin couldn't help but choked up:
"Sister-in-law, please come back and see me! I know you're busy, but I can't find out. He was just in a bad mood before, and he got beaten today. The broken glasses almost pierced his eyeball, and there are footprints on his shirt. I'm afraid he's still injured, and he won't let me and Xiangdong see him."
Zhu Xiuyu felt something was wrong.
She knew Zhuang Chaoying well. It was difficult for her to have a head-on conflict with others. Even with the Zhuang family, it was because she forced her to be tough, not to mention fighting with others. After thinking about it, she could only think of Zhuang Ganmei.
Zhu Xiu Yu knew the situation was serious, so she arranged the store's affairs and returned to Suzhou the next day.
When I got home, Zhuang Chaoying was still lying in bed.
Zhuang Chaoying heard the door knock and thought that Hualin was worried about him and came back to see him, so he said in a hoarse voice without turning around:
"Hua Lin, I'm fine. Go back to work! I'm not hungry and don't want to eat."
Zhu Xiu Yu turned and went into the kitchen and started cooking.
After a while, two bowls of noodles with meat sauce were ready.
Zhu Xiuyu sat down beside the bed and called softly, "Chaoying."
When Zhuang Chaoying heard it was Zhu Xiuyu, he turned around suddenly and said in surprise:
"Xiuyu, why... are you back..."
"Hua Lin called me because he was worried about you. You must be hungry. Get up and eat. I made your favorite noodles with meat sauce." Zhu Xiu Yu was extremely gentle.
Zhuang Chaoying sat up and lowered his head, not daring to let Zhu Xiuyu see his face.
Zhu Xiuyu stood up and found his spare glasses in the chest of drawers and handed them over:
"Hurry up, the dough will clump together soon."
As he said that, he sat down at the table first.
Zhuang Chaoying was about to sit down at the table when he remembered that he had not washed up yet, so he hurried to the bathroom to wash up quickly and came back to eat.
Now he felt like the entire left half of his face was not his own, and he didn't know where it hurt. It hurt when he moved, when he talked, and it hurt even more when he ate, so he grimaced while eating.
Zhu Xiu Yu didn't ask any questions and just ate the noodles quietly. After finishing the noodles, they sat for a while, and Zhu Xiu Yu took out a set of clean clothes from the closet.
Zhuang Chaoying then remembered that he was still wearing yesterday's clothes. It would have been fine if he hadn't changed, but his clothes had gotten dirty from the fight. Zhu Xiuyu was a very clean person, so he hurriedly said,
"Last night... I changed the sheets and washed them later..."
Zhu Xiuyu smiled and said, "It's okay. Go take a shower and I'll wash the sheets."
"No, no, wait for me..."
Zhuang Chaoying took the clothes and wanted to leave, but Zhu Xiuyu held him back and started to unbutton Zhuang Chaoying's clothes.
"Xiu Yu..." Zhuang Chaoying was a little surprised.
"Let me see if there are any injuries on your body. Don't be careless." Zhu Xiu Yu continued without stopping.
Zhuang Chaoying let her take off her shirt and looked at her front and back. There were at least five or six bruises.
Zhu Xiu Yu pressed on him like a doctor and asked him how painful it felt, and he answered her questions one by one.
"It's probably just a superficial injury, but I'll have to ask Hualin to take another look when she comes back. Also, if you feel uncomfortable or in severe pain, you must tell me, don't bear it. What's more important than your life, right?"
Zhuang Chaoying sighed softly, picked up her clothes and went to take a shower.
While cooking, Zhu Xiu Yu had already boiled the bath water.
When he came back, he saw that Zhu Xiuyu had already prepared the medicinal wine. He obediently took off his shirt and let Zhu Xiuyu apply the medicine on him.
Zhu Xiu Yu still didn't ask any questions, but rubbed his wound lightly.
She wiped her back first, then her chest. At this moment, a tear fell on the back of Zhu Xiu Yu's hand.
Zhu Xiu Yu put down the medicinal wine and held Zhuang Chaoying's hand.
Zhuang Chaoying could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
"Xiuyu, I'm useless... I'm really useless... I'm the most useless man in the world..."
"Our teacher Zhuang is a scholar. How could he fight? It's normal to lose a fight. As long as he doesn't lose the argument, it's fine." Zhu Xiu Yu comforted.
Zhuang Chaoying burst into tears and shook his head:
"Xiu Yu, I'm so wronged! They plagiarized my book, and I went to argue with them, but they beat me up! I didn't let them go this time, I fought back! I fought back! But there were four of them, and I was only one..."
Hearing this, Zhu Xiuyu was startled.
She really hadn't thought about the reason for the fight.
