Shen Huai'an didn't consider himself a magnanimous person. He had been tolerant of Xie Xiaodong time and time again, but eventually he couldn't tolerate it anymore.
Xie Xiaodong stared at him, his eyes filled with hatred.
His jealousy of Shen Huai'an over the years has almost turned into hatred.
Shen Huai'an is such a good actor; everything about him is an act. I never knew before that the real Shen Huai'an was such a scheming and despicable person.
Listening to him earnestly recount his past, Xie Xiaodong felt that God was blind. So many setbacks hadn't made Shen Huai'an give up, and his disabled legs had miraculously recovered. Why did all the good things happen to Shen Huai'an?
Now he's become like this, hating Shen Huai'an to death, wishing Shen Huai'an were dead.
Shen Huai'an smiled at him, "Actually, when we first became friends, I knew that we were destined not to be true friends. A friend who always tries to please and flatter may seem perfect, but he is not a true friend, because two unequal people are destined not to be friends."
Shen Huai'an actually takes these things very seriously. If someone lowers their stance and takes the initiative to befriend another person, then that friendship is destined to not last long.
Shen Huai'an threw the whole apple peel into the trash can. He took a sharp knife and quickly cut off a piece of apple. He then held the apple piece with the knife sticking out of the gleaming blade and suddenly held it to Xie Xiaodong's mouth.
The sharp blade made Xie Xiaodong tense up instantly. He tried desperately to back away, but his legs and body were unable to move.
"Want an apple?" Shen Huai'an asked him casually.
"Don't be nervous, I was just asking if you want an apple. Why are you making that face?" Shen Huai'an looked at his mouth seriously, and his expression immediately turned to self-reproach. His face changed like magic the next second.
"I'm sorry, I forgot you had stitches in your mouth and you lost a few teeth, so you can't eat apples. I didn't think of that."
Shen Huai'an looked apologetic, as if he were sincerely apologizing for his oversight.
He then put the apple aside, abruptly stood up, grabbed Xie Xiaodong's hair tightly, and forcefully pulled Xie Xiaodong off the hospital bed. Xie Xiaodong was forced to look up and stare intently at Shen Huai'an.
Shen Huai'an's smile was terrifying. His grip was very strong, showing no pity for Xie Xiaodong's injuries. He was even more ruthless than before.
"Don't make that face again, or people will think I'm going to kill you."
Xie Xiaodong's hair was cut short, making it difficult to tear. Xie Xiaodong was already in pain all over, and being treated like this by Shen Huai'an was really unbearable for him. He kept making hoarse sounds from the pain.
"Don't make that face in front of Xingxing again. He may seem silly, but he's very sensitive. It wouldn't be good if he misunderstood something." Shen Huai'an warned Xie Xiaodong with a smile, word by word. "I'll take care of your grandma for you, don't worry."
Children like Xingxing are the most sensitive. Because of the treatment she received when she was young, Lin Wanxing is sensitive and can always perceive many different emotions.
Xie Xiaodong was so excited that he cried, which Lin Wanxing saw, but he didn't realize it was because of Shen Huai'an. He thought Xie Xiaodong was feeling unwell.
Shen Huai'an quickly made up an excuse to deceive them. Xingxing trusted Shen Huai'an's character, so he would never suspect that Xie Xiaodong's injury was caused by Shen Huai'an.
After Shen Huai'an finished speaking, he let go of Xie Xiaodong's hand, and Xie Xiaodong, unable to support himself, fell heavily onto the bed.
“You… Shen…” Xie Xiaodong stared intently at Shen Huai’an’s face, wishing he could expose Shen Huai’an’s true colors.
This complete hypocrite, this dark and despicable fellow.
This is how Xie Xiaodong sees Shen Huai'an now. Sometimes people are hypocritical. He can criticize Shen Huai'an for being hypocritical, but he seems to have forgotten who he is.
He likes to pretend too.
Shen Huai'an felt annoyed by the slow, deliberate way he spoke. "Shut up, really shut up. The reason I beat you so badly that you can't speak is because you talked too much."
"Your mouth has been stirring up trouble time and time again. I really wish I could make you mute."
"It's not bad to be friends with you. At least I'm not surrounded by rich young masters. Shen Er never cares about status or position when making friends. I need ordinary people like you around me. It's a noble quality to befriend resilient and hardworking people."
Being a rich young master isn't very interesting. Shen Huai'an is never short of rich kids around him. But how can one stand out and distinguish himself with his refined qualities? That is to befriend people like Xie Xiaodong, who is poor yet aloof, hardworking and excellent.
Xie Xiaodong's appearance was timely. Shen Huai'an liked people like Xie Xiaodong because he understood what Xie Xiaodong wanted at a glance and could provide it.
Those were nothing more than dispensable things to him.
