Qin Zheng stood not far from Jiangzhou's ward for a while before continuing with the fruit basket.
Standing at the door of the ward, he saw Ruoluo holding a small bowl in his hand. In the bowl were small sliced apples and peeled oranges. She took a toothpick and forked a piece of orange to feed Jiangzhou.
Jiang Zhou was lying on the hospital bed, and it was not very convenient to eat. When the orange juice overflowed along the corner of his mouth, Ruoluo naturally reached out and wiped the corner of his mouth for him.
A very harmonious picture, Qin Zheng had seen similar pictures many times before, but for the first time he felt uncomfortable.
Qin Zheng knew very well that he had such emotions because he knew that Jiang Zhou was not Ruoluo's brother.
He quickly suppressed this little emotion, reached out and knocked on the door twice, and called out "Ruo Ruo".
Jiang Ruo heard the knock on the door, looked up and saw Qin Zheng, his eyes lit up, "Qin Zheng, you are here!"
She quickly put down the small bowl of fruit in her hand and walked to Qin Zheng's side, "Are you here to see my brother?"
In the past two days, Qin Zheng didn't answer the phone and didn't reply to the message. My brother said that Qin Zheng wanted to retreat because of her identity. Jiang Ruo didn't want to believe it, but she had to believe it. She was actually very sad.
Now that Qin Zheng came over, she knew that Qin Zheng did not despise him because of his life experience.
Jiang Ruo had already started to make up his mind, thinking that it must be because Uncle Qin was angry that he didn't let him come over or contact him.
However, he still came.
Qin Zheng nodded and said in a gentle voice, "How is your brother?"
Before Jiang Ruo could answer, Jiang Zhou spoke first: "If you come here later, I should be able to recover and be discharged from the hospital."
Jiang Zhou's words made the atmosphere that had just eased a little embarrassed again. Qin Zheng put the fruit basket he brought over on the bedside table next to Jiang Zhou's hospital bed, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
After a long silence, Jiang Ruo broke the silence. She looked at Qin Zheng and asked, "Can we go out and chat?"
Qin Zheng nodded immediately.
Jiang Zhou couldn't help the yin and yang's strange anger again: "Is there anything that my patient can't listen to?"
Jiang Ruo looked back at him and whispered, "Brother, I just have a few words to tell Qin Zheng, and I will be back soon."
Jiang Zhou sighed helplessly, "Go, it's better to make it clear earlier."
Jiang Ruo and Qin Zheng left the ward together and went to the balcony not far away.
The two were silent for a long time, and Jiang Ruo couldn't help but ask first, "You already know about me and Jiang Hao, don't you?"
Qin Zheng nodded and said in a low voice: "Actually, I don't care about your background. It doesn't matter whether you are Uncle Jiang's biological daughter or not. You are always the one who grew up with me."
Hearing what he said, Jiang Ruo was naturally moved. She looked down at her toes and asked in a low voice, "But Uncle Qin cares, doesn't he?"
Qin Zheng: …
Father really cares, even if he deceives Ruoluo and says that his father doesn't care, Ruoluo won't believe it.
Seeing his silence, Jiang Ruo showed a wry smile, "The thing I've been worried about has finally happened, but I'm very happy if you are willing to come to me, really."
Qin Zheng remained silent, or in other words, he didn't know what to say, because no matter what he said, it would appear pale.
Jiang Ruo took a deep breath and mustered his courage to say, "Qin Zheng, my father and Uncle Qin used to joke and said... that we would be together in the future, but I am not my mother's biological daughter, this engagement should belong to Jiang Hao. …”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Zheng frowned and interrupted her, "Jiang Li and I are just ordinary classmates, and we haven't said a few words. How could I like her?"
Jiang Ruo lowered his head and whispered, "But... you asked me about Jiang Hao more than once before."
Qin Zheng sighed and said helplessly: "That's because she took the first place in the grade, and I regard her as the most powerful competitor."
However, Jiang Hao didn't seem to regard herself as an opponent. She challenged her before, but she did not accept it.
Jiang Ruo looked at him in disbelief, "Is what you said true?"
Qin Zheng had never seen Jiang Ruo look so unconfident, he just felt very distressed, he nodded without hesitation, "Of course it's true, and... the one who should be jealous should be me, okay?"
The Jiang family and the Qin family did make an oral marriage contract, but neither he nor Ruoluo were adults, so they had always just tacitly understood and did not put this matter on the surface.
But now that Ruoluo took the initiative to mention it, it was impossible for him to escape.
Hearing what he said, Jiang Ruo's attention was successfully diverted. She asked curiously, "Are you jealous? You...why are you jealous?"
Qin Zheng looked at her beautiful face, and the temperature on her face rose unconsciously. After a while, he said in a low voice, "You have so many fans and so many people like you, why can't I be jealous? "
Jiang Ruo's cheeks also began to heat up, "Those... those people are just talking about it casually. I like this one today, and I like that tomorrow. Besides, I haven't paid attention to them."
Qin Zheng's heartbeat gradually accelerated, and he asked a little tangled: "What about Jiangzhou?"
Jiang Ruo was obviously stunned, "What's wrong with my brother?"
Qin Zheng hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help saying: "He is very good to you, even more than the attitude of many brothers and sisters."
A happy smile appeared on Jiang Ruo's face, "Yes, my brother is very good to me. When I was young, my father was very busy with work, and my mother was not very good at taking care of children. It was my brother who took care of me. As long as I liked things, brother He will always find a way to give it to me, and he will never refuse my request."
"Including scheming against his own sister?"
This sentence, Qin Zheng almost blurted out, in fact, he regretted this sentence, but there was no way to take it back.
Jiang Ruo's face suddenly turned white, "You... what do you mean by that?"
Qin Zheng shook his head, "It's nothing, I'm just talking casually."
"You didn't say anything casually!" Jiang Ruo said firmly, "Do you think that I asked my brother to target Jiang Hao!"
"I didn't say that." Qin Zheng retorted.
Jiang Ruo didn't like him at all, "But that's what you think. You just think that I have a vicious mind, not only occupying Jiang Li's identity, but also urging my brother to target her."
She suddenly became so sharp, which made Qin Zheng feel very powerless, "I really didn't think so, I just thought that Jiang Zhou shouldn't target Jiang Li like this. After all, she was his own sister, but he did it for you..."
Jiang Ruo interrupted him, "Let's go, I don't want to see you again."
Qin Zheng frowned, "Luoluo, don't make trouble so unreasonably, okay?"
"Then...then you should find someone who is not unreasonable." Jiang Ruo's words were obviously lacking in confidence.
Dad had specially told her yesterday to try to ease the relationship with Qin Zheng as much as possible, and said that she and Qin Zheng grew up together since childhood, even if Qin Zheng is grumpy now, it will be fine after a while.
But she has no experience in courting people at all. In the past, Qin Zheng took the initiative to come to her. She just had to wait and accept it, so now she doesn't know what to do.
Qin Zheng began to become a little irritable, and finally couldn't help saying: "You asked me to find someone else because you wanted to find Jiangzhou?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
Jiang Ruo looked at Qin Zheng in disbelief, "You... how could you think like this? That's my brother!"
Qin Zheng said stiffly: "You are not related by blood, he is not your brother at all."
Jiang Ruo couldn't understand his thoughts at all, "Even if we are not related by blood, he will always be my brother. I... Do you also want to say that I was a thief who stole Jiang Hao's brother?"
"You know, that's not what I meant at all." Qin Zheng immediately retorted.
Jiang Ruo's eyes turned red, "I don't care what you mean, I don't want to listen to you right now, and my brother doesn't need you to visit either, so let's go!"
After saying this, Jiang Ruo turned around without hesitation, ran back to the ward and closed the door.
Qin Zheng stood there for a while, and then left the hospital. He is very unstable now. If he goes to Ruoluo again, there will definitely be another quarrel.
It's better to go back first, wait for each other to calm down, and then apologize to Ruoluo.
After Jiang Ruo returned to the ward, Jiang Zhou saw that her eyes were red, and immediately frowned and asked, "Did that kid bully you?"
Jiang Ruo quickly shook his head, "Nothing, he just... just misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding?" Jiang Zhou was puzzled.
Jiang Ruo nodded, "He...he is simply making trouble, saying that I have no blood relationship with you, but...you are my brother!"
Jiang Zhou sneered, "I just said that he didn't come to you two days ago because he cared about your background, and you still don't believe it."
"No." Jiang Ruo explained: "He doesn't care about my background, he thinks we have a good relationship and he is jealous."
Jiang Ruo's thoughts were never hidden from Jiang Zhou, and he immediately started talking about what had just happened just like pouring beans in a bamboo tube.
When Qin Zheng said those words just now, she felt that Qin Zheng was making trouble unreasonably, so she was very angry, but when she repeated those words Qin Zheng said, her anger gradually disappeared, and she thought it was quite funny.
Qin Zheng in her mind was always full of confidence, but she never thought that he would be jealous because of his brother.
Does this mean that he actually cares about himself?
Jiang Ruo chattered a lot, only to realize that Jiang Zhou had not responded to her. When she looked over, she found that her brother's eyes were blank, obviously distracted.
Jiang Ruo immediately complained in a coquettish tone: "Brother, did you not listen to me?"
Jiang Zhou was obviously stunned, and it took a while to react, and he said softly: "Or... you and Qin Zheng break up!"
Jiang Ruo's cheeks blushed, "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about! I...I didn't fall in love with Qin Zheng. It was my father and Uncle Qin who were joking before. Qin Zheng...he never confessed to me."
Seeing her like this, Jiang Zhou's eyes darkened obviously, but he quickly regained his clarity, "I want to eat oranges, you continue to feed me!"
Jiang Ruo nodded immediately, "No problem, I'm my brother's breeder now."
Feng Yun pushed open the door of the ward, and what she saw was a picture of her son and adopted daughter getting along harmoniously.
Jiang Ruo's eyes lit up when he saw her, "Mom, you're back!"
Jiang Zhou looked at her expectantly, "Mom, have you seen Grandpa?"
Feng Yun shook her head, "I didn't see your grandfather, but when I saw your uncle, he... refused."
Hearing what she said, Jiang Ruo was a little disappointed, but quickly regained his spirits, "It's alright, in fact, I have already accepted the reality, even if everyone knows that I'm not the biological daughter of my parents, I don't mind. Yes, because that originally belonged to Gracilia."
Seeing Jiang Ruo being so sensible, Feng Yun was a little moved, she rubbed Jiang Ruo's head lightly, sighed and said nothing.
In fact, the biggest problem now is not whether Ruoluo can accept the disclosure of his life experience, but after the Feng family issued those invitations, the Jiang family's business was in crisis.
The attitude of several partners suddenly became ambiguous, and contracts that had been negotiated in the past suddenly turned yellow.
Although Feng Yun never asks about things in the company, Jianghuai occasionally complains to him. At this time, she usually only needs to play the role of Jie Yuhua and comfort her husband a few words.
But this time, it was useless for her to comfort her.
Now many people outside feel that their Jiang family is not clear-headed and are unwilling to cooperate with them.
Jiang Zhou, who was lying on the hospital bed, clenched his fists silently. If it wasn't for Jiang Hao, Tong Yi, the neurotic bastard, would never have done anything to him, but now, he had to take the initiative to apologize to Jiang Hao.
But other than that, he couldn't think of any other way for the time being.
A week passed quickly, and Jiang Li was in a happy mood to pack up and prepare to go home.
When she came out of the classroom door, Lin Yu grabbed her and couldn't believe it: "Are you still not staying at school this week?"
Jiang Hao didn't understand why she had such a big reaction, but she nodded and said truthfully, "I'm going back to my grandfather's house."
Lin Yu looked bitter and hated, "but you didn't say it before."
Jiang Hao raised her eyebrows, "You didn't ask, I don't need to report your whereabouts, right?"
Lin Yu sighed, "There's really no need for you to report your whereabouts to me, but if I had known that you would not stay in school, I would have decided not to stay in school."
Jiang Hao was curious: "Are you afraid of living alone?"
Lin Yu: ...
This kind of thing doesn't have to be said so frankly.
She waved her hand helplessly, "Go away, I'm going back to the dormitory to pack my things, and I'm ready to show up."
Living alone in a bedroom and turning off the lights at night was so terrifying, she couldn't even imagine how Jiang Hao had survived alone before.
Jiang Hao actually didn't understand Lin Yu very well. In her opinion, it was very safe to live in the school dormitory.
Carrying her schoolbag, she walked towards the school gate. She met Tong Yi on the way and asked casually, "Are you still staying at school this week?"
Tong Yi nodded and reminded her, "The invitation letter you gave me, after writing it, send it over quickly!"
Gracilaria: …
You don't need to be reminded every day.
Separating from Tong Yi, Jiang Hao arrived at the school gate and saw Shen Mian standing at the gate, so he was about to bypass him.
Who knew that Shen Mian reached out and stopped her.
Jiang Li frowned, "Are you busy?"
Shen Mian nodded immediately and whispered, "I'm sorry."
Jiang Hao looked at her suspiciously, not knowing which song she was singing.
Shen Mian hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Jiang Ruo told me before that you are the child of their relatives, because your parents helped her father, so their family had to adopt you. And Jiang Zhou, he always It was to let me take care of Jiang Ruo, and to stare at you, saying that I was worried that you would bully Jiang Ruo."
Jiang Hao's mood didn't fluctuate too much, "Is this why you targeted me before?"
Shen Mian nodded with some difficulty, "I was too stupid at that time and was used by their brothers and sisters, but now I know I was wrong, so I came to you to apologize."
After saying these few words, Shen Mian looked at Jiang Li with expectant eyes, "Will you forgive me?"
Jiang Hao shook his head without hesitation, "In my opinion, at least 80% of the world's apologies are meaningless."
Hearing what she said, Shen Mian felt a little lost, and said in a dull voice, "I also think you won't forgive me. If it was someone else who treated me like that, I wouldn't forgive him either."
However, if she didn't come to apologize, she always felt like a big rock had been pressed against her body, and she felt uncomfortable.
"I don't forgive you because the consequences have already been caused, but you don't need to apologize to me anymore, because you have already paid the price." Jiang Hao said truthfully.
Shen Mian raised her head and looked at Jiang Li in disbelief.
Jiang Hao's attitude was indifferent, "You locked me outside the dormitory door, and I returned it on the spot; you tripped me in the physical exam and paid the price of clearing my long-distance running score; Kidnap me, and finally have to be forced to drop out of school. Aren't these all the price?"
Shen Mian: …
Having said that, he seems to be quite miserable.
I had indeed targeted Jiang Li many times before, but the only one who really hurt Jiang Li should have been the physical exam.
In such a comparison, it seems that most of the time, he is singing a one-man show by himself, which is no different from the clown jumping on the beam.
Is this the so-called evil retribution?
Jiang Hao looked at Shen Mian who was about to become petrified, and couldn't help but think: If Shen Mian knew, even if she stumbled over her feet during the physical exam, she would not be able to get full marks, and she didn't know she would. How do you feel.
However, Jiang Hao didn't plan to tell Shen Mian about this. If Shen Mian felt guilty because of this, there was nothing she could do.
Jiang Hao was about to leave, but Shen Mian stopped her again.
"Jiang Li, I know you don't need my apology at all, but I still want to say sorry to you."
Seeing her sincere attitude, Jiang Hao sighed and said helplessly: "I think, before doing anything, you should think about whether you can afford the corresponding price, instead of just saying sorry after doing something wrong. ."
Strictly speaking, Shen Mian did not hurt himself, so there is no need to say sorry to himself.
But in that book, Shen Mian's "Tailielie" really caused a lot of trouble to the original owner. Shen Mian may not be the main reason for the blackening of the original owner, but it is definitely one of them.
After wearing the book by herself, none of those things happened yet, and Shen Mian didn't know anything about the original plot in the book. Jiang Hao wouldn't take out a loan to blame her.
But she couldn't accept Shen Mian's so-called apology.
Jiang Hao's attitude was too light and airy, and Shen Mian felt even more ashamed. She knew that no matter how much she said sorry, Jiang Hao didn't care at all.
She lowered her head and stepped aside, thinking about waiting for Jiang Hao to leave first, but when she turned around, she met Jiang Zhou's gaze.
Jiang Zhou was sitting in a wheelchair, and behind him was a man in a white shirt pushing the wheelchair for him. Besides, there were several strong men in black suits standing beside him, looking ready to fight.
Wearing a suit on a hot day looks like your brain is broken, but it matches Jiang Zhou very well!
Shen Mian glanced at Jiang Li, and couldn't help thinking: If Jiang Zhou brought these people here to find trouble for Jiang Li, then he must help Jiang Li, and he should atone for his sins.
When Jiang Zhou saw Shen Mian and Jiang Li walking together, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and after Shen Mian saw himself, he even took a step forward, with a posture of protecting Jiang Li behind him.
He couldn't figure out how the two could get mixed up.
If he were to know what Shen Mian was thinking at this time, Jiang Zhou would probably want to buy a piece of tofu and bump into it.
Jiang Hao is now recognized by the Feng family. It can be said that the wind and the rain will bring rain. How dare he find a group of people to threaten and intimidate each other?
If Feng Qi knew about it, then he would have to eat and walk around!
He brought these people just for self-protection, because Tong Yi, the evil spirit, has always been a ghost, and the ghost knows if he will suddenly emerge from it and beat himself up again.
Jiang Hao was not surprised to see Jiang Zhou appearing at the school gate, because Jiang Zhou was also a student of this school.
What surprised her was that Jiang Zhou was pushed over by someone in a wheelchair, and looking at his blue nose and swollen face, he knew that he had been beaten.
Jiang Zhou caught the flash of surprise in Jiang Hao's eyes, and couldn't help showing a self-deprecating look, "Tong Yi sent me to the hospital in order to vent his anger for you. He must have told you?"
Jiang Hao was taken aback, "Tong Yi?"
Seeing Jiang Hao's appearance, Jiang Zhou was sure that she really didn't know it. He pretended to sigh and said, "Tong Yi is indeed a gangster who only uses violence, he..."
"Tong Yi is not a gangster." Jiang Hao retorted expressionlessly.
Jiang Zhou was about to continue to sow discord when he heard Jiang Hao speak slowly: "He is Tong Leifeng."
Jiangzhou: ...
