Chapter 35 - He felt that his sister's relationship with Shuyao couldn't be that simple (1)
Right after Shi Qingyin woke up, he saw Yue Xia strolling into his hospital room without any regard. He grinded his back teeth so hard that he almost broke them.
He had been utterly stunned last night. He had no idea how to react. He maintained eye contact with the infuriated Jiang Shuyao for a few seconds before she seemed to have come back to her senses.
She was frightened by her behavior. "Sorry…"
Fury began to spread from his throbbing cheek. Shi Qingyin's instinctive response was to display his anger.
"No." Jiang Shuyao immediately shook her head and made things worse by firmly saying, "I'm not sorry."
Shi Qingyin: "?"
"Do you think I'll be happy if you insult her like that?" Jiang Shuyao was clearly retreating in fear, and yet, she still continued to defend Yue Xia. "She's not that kind of person-"
Shi Qingyin didn't know if it was because of anger or pain, but he felt a sharp pang in his ribs. He felt like he couldn't breathe. His vision went black, and when he woke up, he was lying on a hospital bed.
How to put it? The impact of landing on the edge of his bed had fractured his ribs as well as his calf bone. His swollen face was unsightly and wrapped up like a mummy's face.
So many unfortunate things had happened, but at least he didn't hit the back of his head. Otherwise, he would be in a coma.
These were the most serious injuries he had suffered in his life, and they were caused by Shuyao.
In the past, she couldn't even bear to say a harsh word to him, but now she used such heavy force… F*ck, where did she get this supernatural strength?!
Yue Xia looked at the unidentifiable object struggling on the bed and also fell silent.
[System, could it be that we're actually in a martial arts novel?]
How could the male protagonist fall to such a miserable state after only one day of not seeing him?
No wonder the system said the male protagonist is in a helpless state. That really was the perfect description! Looking at his current state, he might have to use a bedpan. There was no way he could attend his school's anniversary celebration even if he was strong-willed despite being disabled.
This was Jiang Shuyao's first time using violence. As she got onto the ambulance last night, she felt extremely guilty. She stayed up all night to take care of Shi Qingyin. She couldn't hide her anxiety when she saw Qingyin's agitation. "Qingyin, you should rest. Don't move…"
After all, she was someone that would feel angry if she saw someone kicking a dog on the street. Now that she was the aggressor, and her victim was suffering so terribly, she couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart.
Shi Qingyin desperately glared at Yue Xia. He was breathing heavily. He slowly laid back down. He had only moved a little bit, and he felt acute pain from his ribs and the rest of his body. He had never suffered so badly before. If his assailant had been someone else, he would have already retaliated a hundredfold.
But, the person was Jiang Shuyao。
What made him furious was that Jiang Shuyao had slapped him for Yue Xia's sake. He could have accepted it if Jiang Shuyao was angry for her own sake. She had only known Yue Xia for several days! When all is said and done, these two should have an antagonistic relationship, right? Jiang Shuyao slapped him for a person like Yue Xia. How could this be justified?
Yue Xia saw that Jiang Shuyao's originally stable mood began to gradually decline. She tilted her head and said, "Shuyao, you go out first. I want to chat with him."
"Chat?" Shi Qingyin sneered. "What do we have to talk about?"
Jiang Shuyao was still a bit worried. "I…"
Just as Yue Xia was thinking that Shuyao didn't want to leave them alone because she was worried that she was having an affair with Shi Qingyin, she heard Shuyao hesitantly saying, "Don't fight anymore."
Yue Xia: "?"
Girl, your thought process is so strange.
Shi Qingyin watched Jiang Shuyao obediently pushing the door open. His heart tightened. He warily looked at Yue Xia and coldly asked, "What are you up to?"
In fact, he was sure that it was the same old thing. Yue Xia wanted him to break up with Shuyao and get back together with her. At worst, she would threaten to tell Shuyao what happened in high school. Who knows how she found out about that inside story, but he no longer cared about that.
In the past, he might have felt a bit guilty towards Yue Xia, but that feeling was completely gone now. She was such a cruel woman. Who knew how much she would harm him in the future?
The hospital room was utterly silent except for the wind blowing through the windows. Shi Qingyin and Yue Xia looked at each other with unfriendly gazes. At this critical moment, Yue Xia burst into laughter.
Her boisterous laughter echoed in the room and seemed to never end.
Shi Qingyin: "?"
"Do you know?" Yue Xia's gaze was affectionate. "You look like the biggest pig head in Angry Birds."
She wanted to say a few harsh words, but when she looked at Shi Qingyin's face that was three times bigger than usual and his balloon-like body, she couldn't hold back her laughter.
Shi Qingyin: "..."
He was burning with anger. It was the first time someone pointed at him and laughed at him. And yet, he was powerless. He could only struggle on the bed in his incessant fury. "Yue! Xia!"
Yue Xia had her hands on her belly as she unsympathetically laughed at him in all aspects.
Shi Qingyin's face was swollen. When he took a few deep breaths, he felt a dull pain in his ribs, and his emotions finally calmed down.
He thought that no matter how Yue Xia tried to instigate and drive a wedge between him and Shuyao, he would never give up on Shuyao. Although he was angry about what Shuyao did to him, this matter was between him and Shuyao. It had nothing to do with an outsider that wanted to stir up trouble.
"Wait." Shi Qingyin suddenly looked up. "How did you know I was here?"
In order to hide this private shameful matter, only a few people knew that he was in the hospital. Even if he couldn't hide his injuries, he would say that he accidentally fell to cover up the real reason. How did Yue Xia know he was here? Who told her?
Yue Xia looked down at him. Her big eyes were full of amusement. "Guess."
Shi Qingyin's eyes immediately turned cold.
No way…it couldn't… it could only be Jiang Shuyao.
