Chapter 41 - 41 Cannot Be Discharged

41 Cannot Be Discharged

Fang Yao, who was in the ward, did not know that because of his biological brother’s call, his parents had already erupted. There would be a bloodbath later.

“Do you want some fruit?” Fang Yao handed the washed fruit to Yuan Xiao. He looked at her bandaged forehead and felt very uncomfortable.

“If I’d been there a little earlier, you wouldn’t have been hurt.”

Yuan Xiao’s heart warmed when she saw Fang Yao lower his head in self-blame.

“It’s okay. If I wasn’t injured, my parents probably wouldn’t have fallen out with my aunt’s family.”

When Yuan Xiao thought of Shen Ling’s family, she felt a little frustrated.

Shen Hai and Feng Mei were honest people and had always been very polite to Shen Ling’s family. If not for the fact that she was injured today, who knew how long they would have been entangled with Shen Ling’s family.

“I think your parents won’t be too hard on that woman.” Fang Yao was angry, but because Yuan Xiao’s parents were present, he could not flare up.

“Yes, so I’m afraid I’ll have to stay in the hospital for a while longer.”

Fang Yao looked at the smiling Yuan Xiao and suddenly understood. “You mean, no matter how serious your injuries are, you won’t be discharged easily?”

Yuan Xiao nodded. If she did not make a fuss, her parents would not realize the seriousness of the problem. She wanted to use this opportunity to completely distance Shen Hai and Feng Mei from Shen Ling’s family.

Fang Yao did not think that there was anything wrong with Yuan Xiao’s actions at all. In fact, he felt very relieved.

“Xiao Xiao, the results are out.”

Li Chang came in from outside the ward and took the results of Yuan Xiao’s brain examination.

“The doctor said that it’s nothing. It’s just a superficial wound. Take care to rest. You’ll be fine in a week.”

Li Chang heaved a sigh of relief when she knew that Yuan Xiao was fine.

However, she realized that Yuan Xiao and Fang Yao seemed to have something on their minds. The two of them looked at each other and smiled before Fang Yao walked out of the ward.

“Xiao Xiao, the doctor said that you can be discharged now. Has Fang Yao gone to settle the discharge procedures?”

Li Chang did not understand the situation and felt that Yuan Xiao and Fang Yao seemed to be plotting something.

“I’m still a little dizzy. I shouldn’t be able to be discharged today.” Yuan Xiao saw that Li Chang had obviously become nervous. She smiled helplessly and decided to tell her the truth.

“I don’t want to let Aunt and the others off so easily, so I want to stay in the hospital for a few days.”

Li Chang was relieved when she heard Yuan Xiao’s words.

“I see. That’s good. We shouldn’t let them off so easily!” Li Chang thought of Yuan Xiao’s aunt and felt that she had indeed gone overboard.

“Uncle and Auntie are soft-hearted. We can’t just let it go.”

When Yuan Xiao heard Li Chang’s words, she felt that her friend was really like her. They both hated evil.

“So you don’t have to worry. When my parents come later, we have to make them think that the matter is serious. We can’t let them off so easily just because they’re relatives.”

Yuan Xiao was not a magnanimous person to begin with. If anyone made her unhappy, she would definitely pay them back double.

Fang Yao explained the situation to the doctor and said that Yuan Xiao was still not feeling well, so he naturally went through the hospitalization procedures.

When he returned to the ward, Fang Yao received a call from Sun Ting. Sure enough, Shen Hai and Feng Mei did not make things too difficult for Shen Ling’s family. They simply apologized and they let them leave. Now, they and Yuan Xiao’s parents were rushing to the hospital and would be arriving soon.

Yuan Xiao was not surprised by this result. She sat on the bed and secretly made up her mind.

When Shen Hai and Feng Mei rushed to the ward, Yuan Xiao was lying on the bed.

“Xiao Xiao, how are you now? What did the doctor say?”

Shen Hai did not expect Yuan Xiao to be hospitalized. When he saw his weak daughter on the bed, he felt terrible.

“Uncle, Yuan Xiao has a slight concussion. If she had come to the hospital a little later, I’m afraid…”

Fang Yao’s acting was a little exaggerated. Yuan Xiao could not help but cough lightly. She was worried that if she did not speak, she would scare her down-to-earth parents.

“Dad, Mom, I’m fine. You don’t have to worry too much.” With Li Chang’s help, Yuan Xiao struggled to sit up from the bed.

“Xiao Xiao, it’s all Mom’s fault. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt.”

Feng Mei walked to Yuan Xiao’s side, her eyes filled with self-blame.

“How can I blame you?” Yuan Xiao smiled at Feng Mei and asked, “Aunt and her family won’t ask you for money anymore, right?”

At the mention of Shen Ling’s family, Shen Hai’s face instantly darkened. “Hmph, she wants money? If she dares to appear in front of me again in the future, I’ll settle the score with her. Xiao Xiao’s injury can’t be forgotten just like that!”

Although Shen Hai was honest and dutiful, he could not tolerate his daughter being hurt.
