Chapter 895: The 90s (5)
“Brother, Mother, when you see her next time, ignore her. She is not my friend.”
Ming Shu came back alone.
Jian Shu didn’t have much interaction with Li Meng. He only treated her well because of his younger sister.
Thus, it was easy to stop him from liking Li Meng now.
“Is it all right to leave her here?” Mother Jian was worried. This place was deserted and she was just a little girl.
“Mother, the town is just ahead. She just needs to walk a while to reach the town,” Jian Shu said.
“Oh.”
Mother Jian was not familiar with this place so she listened to whatever her son said.
Her daughter was more important.
Jian Shu brought Ming Shu for a checkup first. The doctor said that Ming Shu had almost recovered, but she still needed to take care of herself. She couldn’t catch a cold again.
When the doctor spoke, he sounded as though she would die if she fell sick again.
After going through the checkup, Jian Shu brought Ming Shu to the flower market.
The flowers in the flower market bloomed brightly and many people hustled and bustled in the market.
Mother Jian wore a pair of sunglasses and pulled Ming Shu around.
After walking for a whole day, Mother Jian was extremely tired.
Since it was late, Jian Shu didn’t plan to go back. They found a place to stay in town.
“Baby, do you need me to sleep with you?” Mother Jian leaned against the door in anticipation. “I can sing a lullaby for you.”
“No need. Goodnight, Mother.”
Ming Shu shut her mother outside her room.
Ming Shu washed up and came out of the bathroom. She dried her hair and walked to the side of the bed. Suddenly, a pain shot through her heart and her limbs lost their strength. She lay on the bed helplessly.
Medicine…
Someone knocked on the door, but Ming Shu had no energy to open it.
“Xixi, I brought a glass of milk for you. Drink it… Xixi!”
This was the last ting Ming Shu heard.
When she woke up, she was already in the hospital. Mother Jian stood at the wall like a little child who did something wrong. Jian Shu was looking at the floor too. She couldn’t see his expression.
“Brother…”
“Xixi.”
Jian Shu tried his best to cover up the worry on his face.
Luckily, they realized it early so nothing serious happened.
Mother Jian inched over. Her eyes were red and swollen.
“It is Brother’s fault. I shouldn’t have let you stay outside for so long.” Jian Shu blamed himself.
“I’m sorry, Mother made a mistake too.”
“I’m fine.” She had an attack today because she beat Li Meng up.
This body…
Weak.
Really weak.
Ming Shu stayed in the hospital for a few days. Jian Shu wanted to bring her to the city since the facilities here were not very good, but when he considered the distance she needed to travel, he gave up the idea.
“I’m really fine. I can eat ten drumsticks!”
Ming Shu looked at the people that accompanied her all these days and felt helpless.
Jian Shu looked at her angrily. “Drumsticks? The doctor said that you can’t eat too much oily food.”
“Lousy doctor.”
Jian Shu: “…”
Mother Jian blamed herself too so she didn’t argue with Jian Shu. When Jian Shu went out, she leaned close to Ming Shu and whispered, “Baby, I will go and get some tasty food for you later. However, you can’t eat too much. I asked the lousy physician. It is okay to have some oily food.”
Ming Shu’s eyes sparkled.
Mother Jian felt that she was given a heavy responsibility and left the room secretly.
The moment Mother Jian went out, the door of the ward opened again. Ming Shu thought that Jian Shu came back. “Brother…”
A shadow leapt over and covered her mouth. “Don’t make a sound.”
Ming Shu looked at the person behind her.
He was wearing the patient uniform too and looked around the same age as the Host. However, he wore sportswear inside his patient uniform and the uniform was buttoned haphazardly. He was not someone from the hospital.
The young boy was handsome. He had a wound on his face, but it didn’t affect his looks at all. It just made him looked wild and unruly.
Noises sounded outside the ward. There were some people running outside.
The young boy listened carefully to the sound outside. Once he confirmed that there was no one in the corridor, he looked at Ming Shu and said, “I will let you go now. However, you cannot shout.”
Ming Shu didn’t reply to him so the young boy thought that she agreed to his request.
Kacha…
The door of the ward suddenly opened. The young boy got a shock and hunkered down on the other side of the bed.
Ming Shu made a sound like she was spitting.
“Xixi, what’s wrong?” Jian Xi walked over instantly. “Where is Mother?”
Ming Shu wiped her mouth. She ignored the person that was warning her with his eyes and complained to her brother, “There is someone here.”
I can’t fight now but I can complain!
“F**k!”
The young boy cursed. He sprang up and ran toward the window.
Jian Shu took a step with his long legs and blocked the young boy’s path. He subdued the young boy almost immediately and pinned him to the ground. He had a dark expression as he asked, “What are you doing in my sister’s room?”
The young boy looked back and glared with his big eyes. “Jian Shu, you idiot. It’s me!”
Jian Shu saw the young boy’s face and his expression changed. However, he didn’t let him go. He pressed him down firmly. “What are you doing here?”
“It hurts! It hurts!”
The young boy screamed loudly.
…
The young boy was called Ye Xi. His nickname was Ye West Wind.
In Chinese, drinking west wind meant that a person has nothing to eat and could only drink the air.
His father gave him his name because he hoped that his son could be raised easily. Even if he just drank air, he could live.
Not a lot of people called him by his real name.
Ye West Wind sat at the side and rubbed his elbow. He glanced at Ming Shu. “Is this your sister? She is as unreasonable as you.”
“If a stranger runs into your ward and covers your mouth, you will be nice to him?” Ming Shu refuted. “You have a big heart.”
Ye West Wind: “…”
Jian Shu didn’t look happy, either. This person just ran into the ward like this. What if his sister got frightened?
Nothing happened this time, but if it did, he would peel off a layer of this kid’s skin.
“If you have nothing to do, get out of here.”
“Brother Jian Shu.” Ye West Wind suddenly squeezed out a smile and showed his empty pockets. “Can you let me stay with you for a few days? I have no money on me.”
“No.”
Jian Shu knew that this stuipd bastard was very good at creating trouble so he didn’t dare to let him stay near him.
“Brother Jian Shu, my life is really tough!” Ye West Wind started crying. “My stepmother wanted to kill me. Why is my life so miserable? If you don’t let me stay with you, I can only sleep on the streets. You might not be able to see me again. Even if we are not fated, we are still friends, right? Brother Jian Shu, you can’t treat me like this…”
Jian Shu: “…”
Ming Shu looked at Jian Shu. What the hell was no fate?
“Get out of this place.”
Jian Shu grabbed Ye West Wind and left the ward.
Half an hour later, Ye West Wind ran back and started fussing around Ming Shu.
“Little sister, drink some water.”
“Little sister, have some fruit.”
“Little sister, are you bored? Let me tell you a joke. Little Ming received a call from his sidekick: ‘Boss, I had a fight with someone. Can you send 20 men over?’ Little Ming asked: ‘What weapon should they bring?’ The sidekick said: ‘Bring some fruit. I need to show some sincerity when apologizing.’”
Jian Shu glared at Ye West Wind. “Stop bothering Xixi.”
When Mother Jian came back and saw Ye West Wind, she was astounded. Ye West Wind greeted Mother Jian naturally.
Ming Shu didn’t know what Ye West Wind said to Jian Shu, but Jian Shu didn’t chase Ye West Wind away anymore.
