Chapter 21
With a wave of his hand, Xu Wang swept everything off the table to the ground.
When Fu Zhaoya heard the noise, she rushed in and saw that Xu Wang's phone, the cup on the table, and other things had been swept away, leaving a mess.
Xu Wang was sitting in a wheelchair at the moment, and it was obvious that his complexion was not very good.
Fu Zhaoya was startled when she heard the sound, but seeing that he was not injured and seemed to be in no other condition, she breathed a sigh of relief, though her face still looked grim.
Fu Zhaoya then asked a few questions with concern, "Xiao Wang, what's wrong?"
Xu Wang sat in his wheelchair, his eyelids slightly twitching, and finally said, "It's nothing."
How could nothing be wrong?
However, Fu Zhaoya also knew that her son was the type of person who kept everything to himself. If she wanted him to open up, she would have to...
Fu Zhaoya thought about it and realized that in this family, the only person who could speak to him was Jiang Yi. So when Jiang Yi came home that evening, Fu Zhaoya told Jiang Yi about it with a somewhat troubled expression.
“Xiao Wang is acting strangely today. He started smashing things as soon as he got back. Xiao Yi, you're closer to him, and he listens to you more. Why don't you ask him…”
When Jiang Yi heard Xu Wang's mother say that he would listen to her after all, she thought she had misheard for a moment. She subconsciously wanted to refute him, but when she saw the troubled look on Fu Zhaoya's face, she couldn't help but sigh softly.
All right……
Since Aunt Fu is so kind to her, she might as well ask her for a favor herself since she asked.
However, she just couldn't understand where their misunderstanding came from, that they absolutely believed she had a better relationship with Xu Wang.
What exactly is good about their relationship?
However, she didn't delve any further into it. She picked up the gift she had prepared for the day and went straight to find Xu Wang.
When Jiang Yi arrived at Xu Wang's training room, the room had already been tidied up. However, the boy was in a bad mood that night. As Jiang Yi pushed open the door and was about to go in, she heard the boy's gruff voice coming from inside, tinged with impatience, saying, "Didn't I tell you not to come in and disturb me? What are you doing here again?"
Then he saw Jiang Yi, and his expression froze instantly.
Jiang Yi stood at the door, looking at the people inside. After a moment of silence, she said, "Actually, I didn't want to come either, but your mother said you weren't in a good mood, so she asked me to come and see you."
Xu Wang really didn't expect her to come. He had been feeling a nameless anger in his heart, but strangely, the moment he saw her, that nameless anger suddenly disappeared.
He sat in his wheelchair, staring blankly at her, and even unconsciously felt a little embarrassed.
He had actually shown her such an unstable side of himself, and he began to regret it, regretting that he hadn't looked at her properly before rashly losing his temper.
He pursed his lips and waited a while before speaking in a muffled voice, "I'm fine. Don't listen to my mother's nonsense. I'm perfectly fine."
Jiang Yi nodded and said, "Indeed, you still have the energy to lose your temper with people easily. I don't think there's anything wrong with you."
As she spoke, she handed over the gift in her hand and said, "Thank you for what you did for Anan yesterday. I didn't know how to thank you, so I went to the bookstore and bought you a gift."
Did you buy a gift?
Xu Wang stared in disbelief at the small gift box in her hand. Thinking of the photos Lu Yang had sent him that evening, he couldn't help but purse his lips into a tight line.
So, she went to the bookstore to buy herself a gift tonight?
She didn't meet with Yu Zhe alone; she went to buy him a gift.
This realization made him jump for joy. He felt as if something was burning his heart, and his heart was so hot that he felt like it was about to jump out of his chest.
However, he still looked disgusted and said, "I sent him to school only because our family doesn't need someone who is uneducated in their teens, not to help you."
Jiang Yi didn't expect that this boy would become so arrogant at this moment. But to be honest, his arrogant appearance was actually quite cute, like a big cat that made people want to pet him at any time.
She smiled, not caring about his attitude.
She placed the pen in his hand and said, "Yes, yes, you're not doing this to help me; you're doing it because you're a good person."
Xu Wangcai didn't want to admit that he was a good person, and subconsciously wanted to refute it, but he was afraid that his rebuttal would affect his image in his mind.
No, why should I care about my image in her eyes?
Xu Wang scratched his hair in annoyance. Seeing that she was still standing there, smiling at him, as if she hadn't left at all, Xu Wang asked with a slightly fierce expression, "Why haven't you left yet?"
Jiang Yi found the young man quite amusing. The atmosphere was just right, so she wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, she smiled at him and said, "I heard that you've been recovering quite well lately, young master. Could you walk a few steps so I can see you?"
Walking in front of her?
Xu Wang instinctively wanted to refuse.
But the girl's eyes shone with light and encouragement, a light so dazzling that he couldn't refuse. So, as if possessed, he suppressed his inferiority complex, stood up, and then, holding onto the table next to him, began to walk step by step.
He walked very slowly, but it was clear that his injuries had largely healed.
After taking a few steps, he released his grip on the table, then quickened his pace and took a few more steps forward.
They were walking even faster than the previous two days.
With his head down, feeling embarrassed, Xu Wang also felt a strange, inexplicable joy welling up inside him.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Yi's eyes flashed with joy, and she said encouragingly, "Not bad, maybe you'll be able to walk soon."
Although the recovery was indeed going well, Xu Wang still felt that his leg was recovering very slowly. Now, seeing Jiang Yi's encouragement, he looked into her eyes, waited for a while, and finally said "Mmm," "Thank you for your kind words."
Jiang Yi stayed there for a while before going back.
After returning, Xu Wang trained for a while longer. When he was covered in sweat, he remembered the gift Jiang Yi had given him. So he opened the gift box, took out the fountain pen, filled it with ink, and wrote for a while. When he saw the beautiful words on it, Xu Wang couldn't help but smile.
When Fu Zhaoya came over again, she saw him sitting at the table with a faint smile in his eyes.
Seeing her son regain his joy after Jiang Yi left, Fu Zhaoya felt a sense of relief. But then, remembering something, she sighed softly and turned to leave.
