“Mommy, why must we let uncle go?” Shi Mianmian came over and pulled on her finger, asking in a whisper, “Didn’t you say that if a handsome man is willing to follow us home and is willing to let me paste Peppa Pig stickers on him, you’ll consider letting him be my daddy? Mmhm—”
The girl’s mouth was suddenly covered by her mother, and she stared at the man in bed with a begging-for-help look. “Mmhm—uncle…”
Shi Su gritted her teeth and forced her daughter into the next room. “If you dare to talk such nonsense again, I’ll confiscate all your chocolate next month!”
The girl immediately shut her mouth, but she still whispered aggrievedly, “Mommy, uncle is so badly hurt and is so pitiful. Don’t drive him away…”
“Shut up and face the wall for thirty minutes!” Once the woman finished speaking, she directly shut the door.
When she returned to the master bedroom to tell the man that she had made up her mind about having him leave, her footsteps suddenly stopped. “What are you doing out of bed?”
Jing Jihan, who was now standing by the bed, looked at his black loose shorts that ended at his knees. He then eyed the blood oozing under the gauze on his body and moved to cover the wounds he had opened up from suddenly getting up.
“I just want to ask you guys to be good guys till the end, but since my request is putting you on the spot, there’s no need. I can leave.”
Upon hearing his weak voice, Shi Su thought of how serious his injury was. He must have endured the great pain by getting out of bed. Did this man not know pain?
Though she had helped him wipe his body several times these past few days and had already seen him half-naked, she had only done so to help him change his clothes. Therefore, there was nothing wrong with her actions then.
When she turned around, the man took two steps forward with much difficulty and seemed ready to fall down at any time.
Seeing his tall and slender figure tremble slightly, she instinctively moved to support him. The man’s 1.9-meter tall body fell down and directly pressed against her. She staggered backward and almost toppled to the ground.
Shi Su supported him with much effort and then pushed the man, who was almost double her weight, back to the bed. When they reached the bed, she supported him until he sat down and directly collapsed on it.
“Sigh. You…”
Her hand paused. In the blink of an eye, the man had closed his eyes. Had he fainted again?
She glanced at the gauze, which was oozing with blood from the newly reopened wounds, and grabbed her hair in despair. She turned and yelled at the other room, “Shi Mianmian, stop facing the wall! Come out, go downstairs, and call the grandpa doctor from the clinic!”
The door was quickly opened, and her daughter happily responded, glad to be freed from the penalty of facing the wall. She ran to the door, put on her cute pink shoes, and went straight downstairs.
Shi Su’s face was extremely gloomy, and there was an uncomfortable feeling in her heart that she had just been fooled. However, looking at the man’s injuries and his quietly closed eyes, she rolled hers in resentment before she proceeded to straighten his body. When he was lying flat in bed, she carefully uncovered the blood-stained gauze on his body.
“Why are you bleeding so heavily?” She quickly stood up and directly walked to the bathroom to get a towel.
After taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped and turned to look at the person in bed. The man’s face was still pale and, in fact, seemed whiter than before.
His blood-stained suit and shirt were not even available on the market, and she happened to have seen such high-end fabric abroad before. At first glance, she knew his clothes were not ordinary custom-made items. Such a handsome and rich man probably would not be guilty of plotting against her and her daughter, would he?
It seemed that she really had nothing to worry about.
She was no longer the same as she was five years ago, and there was nothing she had to be plotted against.
