Chapter 276: Guilt

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Li got out of the carriage first and reached out to He Qingmu. “Come, Mother will carry you down.”

Since the child was injured, she naturally had to pamper him well.

He Qingmu looked at Su Li and smiled sweetly.

Su Li carried him down. He felt a little heavy in her arms. Over the past few months, she had been thinking of ways to make delicious food for them. The two children had also gained a lot of weight.

Especially He Qingmu and Riceball, the two of them visibly became rounder.

“You’ve gained weight and grown taller,” Su Li said.

He Qingmu chuckled and said, “It’s all because Mother’s food is too delicious. I eat a lot of food every day. Soon, I’ll grow taller and stronger.”

Su Li stroked his head dotingly, thinking to herself that the child had indeed grown up a little. He was really becoming more and more sensible!

He Qingyao ran to the door. When he saw Su Li and He Qingmu, his eyes were filled with tears.

“Mother, Brother, you’re back.”

If they didn’t come back soon, he really didn’t know what to do.

When He Qingmu saw He Qingyao, he broke free from Su Li’s arms, ran over and hugged him.

“Brother, don’t cry. I’m back now!”

He Qingyao blinked and tried to hold back his tears. “I’m not crying. I’m just too happy.”

After experiencing this, the two of them seemed to be even closer. For a moment, there seemed to be a lot to say.

He Qingyao looked at the marks on He Qingmu’s hand and felt very sad. He wished that he was the one who was taken away. Otherwise, his younger brother would not have been tortured like this.

He Qingmu didn’t think much of it. He comforted him, “Brother, don’t be sad. It looks scary, but it doesn’t hurt at all. Really!”

He Qingyao grabbed He Qingmu’s hand and said seriously, “I will protect you from now on. We will never be separated.”

He Qingmu nodded heavily and swore in his heart that he would protect He Qingyao in the future. After all, his brother was not as strong as him and was easily bullied by others. He had thick skin and strong strength. If anyone bullied them in the future, he would beat them up with one punch.

Zeng Qing was very surprised to see Su Li bring him back. His men had yet to find him, but Su Li had found him first. This was unbelievable.

However, his subordinates did tell him that Su Li had already dealt with everyone when they arrived. They were just helping to clean up after her!

At the thought of this, Zeng Qing did not know whether to be happy or embarrassed. He was happy that the child had been found, but he was embarrassed that his proud subordinates were inferior to a woman.

“Someone, get some water and bring this young master to wash up.”

Zeng Qing looked at He Qingmu’s dirty clothes. He arranged for someone to draw a bath and let He Qingmu take a good shower before changing into a clean set of clothes.

When He Qingmu heard the word ‘bath’, his entire body was filled with resistance. He really did not want to take a shower alone. He was afraid that once the door closed, he would be taken away and never see his parents again.

Su Li could tell that He Qingmu was afraid and said, “Why don’t I help you bathe?”

He was still young now. It wouldn’t be a big deal for her to help him wash up, right?

However, when He Qingmu heard Su Li’s words, he hurriedly shook his head and refused. “No, I can do it myself!”

His father had said that as a man, he had to protect his mother, so he could not let his mother bathe him. Otherwise, he would always be a brat who had not grown up.

He Qingyao grabbed He Qingmu’s hand tightly. “Brother, don’t be afraid. I’ll go with you.”

He was worried about leaving He Qingmu alone in the room, so it was better for him to keep watch.

When He Qingmu heard that there was someone accompanying him, the expression on his face immediately relaxed.

He Qingyao and He Qingmu went to take a shower, and Su Li went to the house to see Su Ze. At that time, Su Ze’s condition looked quite serious, and she really couldn’t be distracted at that time, so she asked Zeng Qing to help call a doctor.

Su Ze heard the commotion outside and kept looking out of the door. When he saw Su Li walk in, he opened his mouth but didn’t say anything in the end.

He had been careless this time, but he vowed that it would never happen again. He would work hard to become stronger in the future. No one could ever harm his family.

Su Li walked to the bed and reached out to take Su Ze’s pulse. She then checked the area where he was injured. The doctor had already treated him. There was no big problem now. He just needed to rest.

Su Li heaved a sigh of relief. It was good as long as everyone was fine.

Su Ze looked at Su Li in a daze the entire time without even blinking.

Seeing him like this, Su Li found it funny again. She reached out to touch Su Ze’s forehead and said, “Why? You don’t know how to speak after not seeing me for a while?”

Su Ze lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, “Sister, this time, it’s my…”

Su Li knew what he was about to say and hurriedly interrupted him. “Don’t say those self-blame words. This matter has nothing to do with you. Those people came prepared, and it’s difficult for two fists to fight four hands. No matter how powerful they are, they can’t defeat so many people.”

“In the future, when you encounter such things, don’t fight them head-on.

We’ll think of another way. If you lose your life, what will Father and Mother

At that time, when she saw Su Ze’s reckless look, her heart clenched tightly, afraid that something would happen to him.

Su Ze said, “I didn’t think too much about it. I only have one thought in my mind. I can’t let them take the child away.”

Su Li said, “What a silly child!”

Su Ze asked again, “Sis, have you caught them?”

At the mention of those people, Su Li’s eyes turned cold.

She nodded and said, “I caught them and brought them back. Don’t worry about this. Take good care of your injuries.”

When Su Ze heard that she had caught them, he felt a little better. However, this did not resolve his hatred. He wanted to go over and torture those people now.

Soon, Su Ze’s medicine was ready. When Su Ze saw the bowl of black medicine, he felt terrible. He frowned so hard that his brows could squeeze a fly to death.

“Drink it!” Su Li cooled the medicine and handed it to Su Ze.

Su Ze’s lips twitched. “Sis, can you put it there first? I’ll drink it later!”

After her sister left, he would secretly pour the medicine away. He would not drink such bitter medicine.

How could Su Li not tell what he was thinking? She stuffed the bowl into his hand. “The medicine has already turned cold. You can drink it directly. There’s no need to put it in. You can pinch your nose and drink it in one go and it won’t be bitter. I’ll get someone to bring you some candied plums later.” Su Ze smiled awkwardly. “I’m not afraid of hardship. I’m just a little full!” Su Ze looked at the medicine in the bowl and drank it in one gulp..
