Seeing the undisguised helplessness and disappointment on Wei Xiao's face, Lin Qinghuan smiled and said, "No matter when Grandpa leaves Baiyun Village, I will definitely go back to the city with you the day after tomorrow."
Upon hearing Lin Qinghuan's words, Wei Xiao's obsidian-like, bright and dazzling black eyes held a smile, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl upwards.
He could see Qinghuan more often in the future, without having to worry about her not having enough to eat or being bullied all the time.
With a worried look on his face, Lin's father said to Lin Qinghuan, "Qinghuan, I'm worried that your mother might do something foolish. Let's go home quickly!"
Lin Qinghuan thought about her mother's personality and realized she might really do something rash, so she sighed helplessly, "Alright, let's go back then!"
Wei Xiao looked at Wei Hong and said, "Wei Hong, thank you for taking care of Qing Huan these past few days. I'll take Qing Huan and the others back. You can go back to the hotel and get some rest."
"Okay, I'll go back to the hotel to rest now. See you tomorrow." Wei Hong said and left first.
"Let's hurry up and go!" Lin's father urged.
Seeing the anxious expression on Lin's father's face, Wei Xiao carried Lin Qinghuan and quickly walked to where his car was parked. Wei Xiao put Lin Qinghuan down, opened the car door, helped Lin Qinghuan into the car, adjusted the seat back to make Lin Qinghuan more comfortable, and then returned to the driver's seat.
Seeing how considerate Wei Xiao was to Lin Qinghuan, Lin's father felt very gratified.
Wei Xiao watched the car drive towards Baiyun Village. Lin Qinghuan looked at Wei Xiao with amusement at how slowly he was driving; the slow pace could only be described as tortoise-like.
Mr. Lin's lips twitched. The car was going way too slowly; he could walk faster.
"Wei Xiao, could you drive a little faster?" Lin's father said helplessly.
“Uncle Lin, Qinghuan’s wounds haven’t healed yet. Driving too fast and bumpy will cause the wounds to reopen, which is very detrimental to the healing process,” Wei Xiao said.
Uncle Lin looked out the car window speechlessly. Driving too fast might aggravate his wound, but such a slow speed was a bit hard for him to accept. However, he couldn't say anything, or it would make him seem like he didn't care about his daughter.
Lin Qinghuan looked at Wei Xiao with a big smile; she had found a warm and caring boyfriend.
As darkness fell, the car continued towards Baiyun Village and finally stopped in front of the Lin family's gate. Lin's father couldn't wait to get out of the car. For others, riding in a car was a pleasure, but for him, riding in Wei Xiao's car was torture. He never wanted to ride in Wei Xiao's car again.
After Lin Qinghuan's father got out of the car, she looked at Wei Xiao with a beaming smile. Wei Xiao, seeing Lin Qinghuan's happy expression, couldn't help but touch her fair face, and a smile appeared between his brows as well. "Qinghuan, you're very happy."
"I'm so happy." Lin Qinghuan said, leaning closer to Wei Xiao and planting a kiss on his cheek. She smiled and said, "My Wei Xiao brother is so good, so gentle and considerate. Qinghuan loves you to death!"
Wei Xiao smiled, a surge of secret joy and sweetness welling up inside him.
Wei Xiao and Lin Qinghuan got out of the car and walked into the courtyard side by side. The lights in the courtyard were on, and Lin's father and the three Lin brothers were talking in the courtyard.
When the three Lin brothers saw that Lin Qinghuan's fair and jade-like face was covered with gauze, almost half of her face was covered by the gauze, they were shocked. Lin Piaoxue was really ruthless, she actually ruined Qinghuan's face. What would Wei Xiao do if he wanted to dislike Qinghuan in the future?
Lin Ming looked at his father with fear on his face and said nervously, "Dad, I dare not stay at home any longer. I want to leave with Grandpa. I am willing to do any hard or tiring work. As long as I have a bite to eat, I will be content."
Lin Ming was afraid that one day Lin Piaoxue, that madwoman, would spend all the money and run back home, yelling at him. He was even more afraid that one day he would upset Lin Piaoxue, and she would treat him the same way she treated Lin Erfeng and Qinghuan.
Lin Ming didn't want to die, and he especially didn't want to die at Lin Piaoxue's hands without knowing why; that would be too humiliating!
After hearing Lin Ming's words, Lin's father looked at Lin Qing and Lin Feng, wanting to see what their attitude was.
Lin Feng met his father's gaze and said with a solemn expression, "Father, when I think of Lin Erfeng's death and Qinghuan's injuries, I am always trembling with fear when facing Piaoxue, afraid that if I offend her by accident, she will use cruel methods to deal with me."
"Eldest son, what about you? Are you also afraid of snow?" Lin's father asked, looking at Lin Qing.
Lin Qing gave a bitter smile, looking at the bitterness on her father's weathered face, and said with a sore voice, "Father, I don't want to live under the same roof as Lin Piaoxue either. It makes my heart ache."
Lin Qing's father didn't want to lie to Lin's father, so he truthfully told him what was on his mind.
Lin's father raised his head with a face full of dejection, suppressing the tears in his eyes. He couldn't believe that his three sons were so afraid of Piaoxue, and that Lin Ming even went so far as to leave his hometown to escape Piaoxue.
Lin Qinghuan and Wei Xiao exchanged a glance; neither of them had expected that the three Lin brothers were so afraid of Lin Piaoxue.
Lin Qinghuan's lips curled into a cold smile. Lin Piaoxue was now deserted by everyone. She wanted to see how long Lin Piaoxue could survive outside with 30,000 yuan.
Lin Qinghuan didn't see her mother and was about to ask when she turned her head and saw the kitchen light was on. She assumed her mother was in the kitchen and, feeling embarrassed to face them, didn't mention her mother again.
Wei Xiao didn't bother with the Lin family's affairs and said to Qing Huan, "You're injured and you've been in the car for so long, go back to your room and rest."
Lin Qinghuan smiled at Wei Xiao, then turned to her father, "Dad, Wei Xiao is staying overnight. Please make arrangements for him. I'm going back to my room to lie down and rest for a while."
Lin's father handed the cloth bag to Lin Qinghuan, "Go and rest. I'll take care of Wei Xiao."
Lin Qinghuan took the cloth bag and smiled sweetly at Wei Xiao, "Wei Xiao, I'm going back to my room now. Come find me if you need anything."
"Okay, go and rest if you're tired," Wei Xiao said.
Lin Qinghuan pushed open the door and turned on the light. She discovered that Lin Piaoxue had touched her things. Her face instantly darkened. She hurriedly threw the cloth bag on the bed, wanting to see what Lin Piaoxue had touched.
