Men really do act based on their lower instincts. She was pleased with Wen Huaiyan's service last night, so she was allowed to go out today.
Some time has passed since the incident at Jiangluo's place.
During this period, Li Ruo was unable to visit the hospital directly due to her own circumstances.
Now that I finally have some free time, I have to go and take a look.
After buying some expensive tonics and putting on a suitable outfit, Li Ruo went straight to the ward.
As soon as she reached the door, Li Ruo could see what was inside through the transparent glass of the door.
At this moment, Jiang Luo was sitting on the hospital bed, while Jiang Ze was sitting to the side, slowly peeling an apple.
The two chatted and laughed, looking very warm and harmonious.
It had been a long time since I'd seen her, and Jiang Luochu, who was already quite thin, seemed to have lost even more weight.
That delicate face was now devoid of any flesh, and the bones in her hands were protruding slightly, a sight that evoked a pang of heartache.
Perhaps it was because her gaze was so intense that the person inside could feel it.
Jiang Luo glanced in their direction, and their eyes met.
A tremendous smile appeared on Jiang Luo's face. She waved her hand, her eyes radiant with dazzling color.
Seeing this, Li Ruo quickly pushed the door open and went in, calling out obediently.
"mom."
After placing her things at the foot of the bed, Li Ruo obediently sat down on the edge of the bed.
Upon seeing Jiang Luo, Li Ruo's unhappiness of the past few days vanished instantly.
She too transformed from that thorny, contrasting rose into a little girl.
It seems that as long as Li Ruo stays by Jiang Luo's side, she can always be a child.
She grasped Jiang Luochu's right hand.
"Mom, I've been really busy these past few days and haven't had much free time. I just made time to come see you today."
"Okay, okay, Mom knows you miss me."
How have you been feeling lately?
Upon learning that Jiang Luo was recovering well, Li Ruo felt relieved.
She asked if the Li family had sent anyone to harass them, and Jiang Luo shook his head.
Jiang Luo immediately asked Li Ruo if she had suffered any grievances at the Li family or if she was unhappy.
Li Ruo always reported good news to Jiang Luo and never bad news. She shook her head, her small face smiling sweetly.
"How could that be, Mom? I'm very happy living with the Li family."
As she spoke, Li Ruo took out the necklace around her neck.
"These were all bought for me by them. They treat me very well, so don't worry."
After confirming several times, Jiang Luo nodded to indicate that he understood.
Afterwards, Jiang Luo held Li Ruo's hand tightly and told her...
If you're ever unhappy, just come home anytime. Your home will always be Li Ruo's home.
After hearing those few words, coupled with the warmth of Jiang Luo's hand, Li Ruo almost burst into tears.
In my previous life, I didn't appreciate my good fortune. As soon as I returned to the Li family, all I wanted was to gain the love of my parents as quickly as possible.
Little did she know that she had already tasted true maternal love.
Having been given a second chance at life, she will never let the same mistakes happen again.
After spending a full day in the hospital, Li Ruo felt completely healed.
As she was leaving, Jiang Ze came out to see her off.
Standing at the hospital entrance, the happiness on Li Ruo's face faded.
She looked at the other person.
"Brother, you must take good care of Mom while I'm gone. Don't worry about the money. Just focus on your studies. Just tell me about Mom's medical expenses."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ze's expression didn't seem so happy.
Li Ruo accurately sensed the other person's emotions and asked a question.
"Brother, is something on your mind?"
Hearing the concerned words of the person in front of him, Jiang Ze's gaze fell on her neck.
Even though Li Ruo deliberately wore a high-necked dress today, it did not prevent others from seeing the red marks on her neck.
All day long, I kept glancing at her neck.
Jiang Ze originally thought that as long as he heard the news of Li Ruo's engagement and returned to China immediately, everything would take a turn for the better.
But unexpectedly, it seemed that everything had settled down.
Jiang Ze was unwilling to give up.
"Ruo Ruo, tell your brother honestly where all your money comes from."
"Why are you suddenly asking this?"
"Tell your brother!"
In her memory, Jiang Ze had always been a very polite person, so his loud voice really startled Li Ruo.
Realizing belatedly that his tone was inappropriate, Jiang Ze cleared his throat.
"Your brother just wanted to show concern for you."
"My money... naturally all came from the Li family."
"Ruo Ruo, you've never lied since you were little."
Jiang Ze stared straight into Li Ruo's eyes as he spoke, word by word.
“Although our family is poor, we are not so poor that we have to sell our daughter. You should go home. You don’t need to worry about the money. I have already applied to my advisor for a temporary leave of absence. I will go back to school after these matters are resolved.”
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo felt that Jiang Ze had gone mad.
“Brother, did you discuss these decisions with Mom? You know perfectly well that a large part of the reason Mom has worked so hard all these years is to see you succeed and start a family.”
Li Ruo pursed her lips, her beautiful brows furrowing slightly.
"Brother, you should contact your advisor now. Your life is going smoothly."
Li Ruo wanted to say more, but before she could finish, she was interrupted by the other party.
"So, my good life depends on my sister, on her body, to earn it?"
