Chapter 106 Don’t You Know?
After coming out of the police station, it was already very late.
Ji Qian, Ji Ning, and Ji Mo were waiting anxiously in the living room. When they saw them return, the three siblings immediately surrounded them with concern.
“Sister-in-law, are you alright?”
“Sister-in-law, are you hurt?”
“Sister-in-law, you’re finally back! Ah, Third Brother, is your head alright?”
The waves of concerned greetings made the entire Ji family villa lively. The butler and the other servants also looked at Shen Hanxing and the others worriedly. The servants with discerning eyes had already gone to get the medicine box and even brought warm water.
“We’ve already gone to the hospital, you don’t have to do this.” Shen Hanxing waved her hand. Ji Yan’s leg condition could not be delayed. They had specially made a trip to the hospital to resuture the wound before coming back. It was precisely because of this that Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing were scolded by Zhuang Hengyu again. Shen Hanxing had long been used to Zhuang Hengyu’s venomous tongue after he put on the white coat. When he put on the suit and became the eldest son of the Zhuang family, he was a gentle and refined noble son. When he took off the suit and put on the white coat, he became a bad-tempered doctor with superb medical skills. So Shen Hanxing did not take his words to heart.
Because of Rose’s death, she wasn’t in high spirits. After comforting her brothers and sisters, she said, “I’m tired. I’ll go back to my room to rest.”
“Madam.” The butler quickly followed her and looked at her with concern. “I have the bath ready for you. You should take a bath first to relax your muscles before you sleep.”
The butler looked at the bruise on the corner of Shen Hanxing’s mouth and felt sorry for her. Which b*stard was cruel enough to hit his Madam who has such a beautiful face!
“Thank you.” Shen Hanxing lowered her eyes and nodded. Then, she went upstairs.
Ji Zhou looked at her back worriedly and lowered his voice. He asked, “Is Sister-in-law okay?” “Let her be alone for a while,” Ji Yan said plainly. “Give her some space. Don’t go up and disturb her.”
“That Big Buddha Zhao deserves to die!” Ji Yang was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Because of his intense emotional fluctuations, his concussion was aggravated. Thus, he felt dizzy and vomited again.
“Third Brother, are you okay?” Ji Ning handed him a cup of warm water and carefully leaned over. “Will drinking some water make you feel better?”
“I’m fine. I just have a concussion.” Ji Yang shook his head indifferently, then turned around and retched again.
Seeing his stupid look, Ji Zhou, who had a gloomy face, suddenly laughed out loud gloatingly. “Aren’t you going to admit that you’re stupid? Look at Sister-in-law and then look at yourself, you little weakling!”
“If you’re not weak, then you should have gone forward!” Ji Yang was so angry that he was about to die. While retching, he stuttered and scolded Ji Zhou, “I, I at least went up to fight with someone. I didn’t expect you to only hide behind and call the police!”
“Ha, don’t you know whether you went there to help out or get in the way?” Ji Zhou retorted.
Seeing his two brothers starting to quarrel with each other in a childish way, Ji Mo lowered his eyes and took the initiative to approach Ji Yan. He asked in a low voice, “Big Brother, is Sister-in-law really okay?”
Ji Yan raised his eyes and looked at him. He had always known that his youngest brother was actually the one with the most complex thoughts among his younger siblings. On the surface, he looked obedient and sensible, but on the inside, he was colder than anyone else. His friendly appearance was just a disguise. Ji Mo probably knew that he could not hide it from Ji Yan’s eyes, so Ji Mo rarely came close to him. It was almost as if he deliberately avoided all contact with Ji Yan.
This was the first time Ji Mo had taken the initiative to come in front of Ji Yan and talk to him.
Ji Yan had been in a high position for a long time. Thus, he emanated an astonishing pressure just with his presence. No matter how mature Ji Mo was for his age, he could not help but turn pale under Ji Yan’s scrutiny. Ji Mo clenched his fists and whispered, “Big Brother, I’m just concerned about Sister-in-law.”
“It’s just a small injury.” Ji Yan looked away and said plainly, “She’s much stronger than you all think.”
“I want to go up and see Sister-in-law,” Ji Mo insisted softly. “I’m worried.” After getting Ji Yan’s answer, he seemed to be relieved, but…
Ji Mo lowered his head, hiding the messy thoughts in his mind. He clearly wanted to ask a few questions to show that he cared about sister-in-law as much as his other brothers and sisters. But when he found out that Shen Hanxing was fine, he actually let out a sigh of relief subconsciously. What did this mean…? Could it be that he really cared about Shen Hanxing? No, no, no that can’t be it. How could he really care about Shen Hanxing just because of a small favor? He just didn’t want to owe Shen Hanxing any favor.
Ji Mo stood stiffly on the spot.
