A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return

Xia Ling did not care so much. She anxiously asked the doctor, “Is the child ok?”

The doctor stopped Shaohui’s bleeding and carefully wrapped the wound in a bandage. At the same time, he checked other places of his body. “It’s nothing serious. He did lose a lot of blood, but he did not injure his bones. He will recover after some rest. He is a child, it’s inevitable that he will encounter an accident. He’s not so weak. Miss Ye, you don’t have to worry so much.”

In reality, although he said that the child’s injuries were not very serious, he had a large wound on his arm. Luckily, this experienced doctor was there. If another doctor were there, he would have to get stitches. The old doctor initially wanted to reprimand Shaohui and tell him not to be so rowdy in the future, but after seeing Shaohui’s pleading look and Xia Ling crying at the side, he decided not to provoke Miss Ye.

After hearing what the old doctor said, she was slightly relieved.

After the doctor dealt with Shaohui’s wounds, he went to check on Li Rui. He saw that although Li Rui’s body was swollen in many places, he was not bleeding. “He will be fine after some swelling medicine is applied.” The old doctor said. “If you aren’t reassured, you can go to the hospital to do a check to see if there’s any internal bleeding.”

Li Lei thanked the doctor.

At the side, a reporter asked the two children, “Why did you fight?”

Li Rui coldly looked at that reporter and did not say a word. Shaohui also remained silent.

This was very strange. Children would usually rush to report the name of the culprit after the fight, but these two children? Both of them looked like they were afraid of letting people know the reason and kept very quiet.

The reporters became more intersted in the story.

The two reporters who had accompanied Shaohui to look for Li Rui just now were also present. They looked at each other and did not say a word. They personally witnessed how the children started fighting, but this kind of news was exclusive. How could they share it with others? The quieter the children remained, the happier they were.

“Ok, ok. Everyone, disperse and let the two children rest.” Lin Yunan came over to disperse the crowd. During Xia Ling’s banquet, as her manager and staff, his main task was handling the situation at hand.

The crowd was still unsettled but left. Even the doctor went away.

Now, only Xia Ling, Li Lei, and the two children remained.

Xia Ling looked at Shaohui and finally asked, “Tell us. What happened?”

Shaohui looked at her innocently and said, “It’s nothing. Xiao Rui and I were just playing.”

“You were playing until you started hitting him on the ground?” Xia Ling was so angry that she almost laughed. Oh, Shaohui, are you looking down on your Sister’s intelligence?

Li Rui snorted.

Li Lei frowned. “What’s with that attitude?” Both of the children were not saying anything. He felt that the situation was strange. He couldn’t help but ask Li Rui, “What exactly happened?”

Li Rui finally slowly said, “He’s very annoying, so I threw stones at him. After that, this bastard tackled and hit me.” He did not tell them the whole truth about this incident. He lost this fight and it was humiliating to him. That’s why he did not explain things clearly.

“Who are you calling a bastard?!” Xia Ling glared at him. Although she really liked children, this did not mean that she could tolerate other children insulting her own child!

Li Rui laughed coldly. “The person I’m talking about knows who he is.”

“Li Rui!” Li Lei stopped him. “Apologize to Auntie Ye and Shaohui!”

“No way!” Li Rui was stubborn. His temperament was like Su Tang’s, very arrogant and solitary. He would insist that he was right until the very end.

Xia Ling was exasperated and summoned the security officers. “Where are the security officers? Why haven’t they driven out the rubbish that snuck in?” What right did this child have to insult Shaohui? Bastard? Shaohui was already pitiful enough because he did not have parents. This was not even his fault, so why did he have to endure such insults!

“Xiao Ling, I’m really sorry.” Li Lei spoke. “I will leave with Xiao Rui. You…”

“Get lost!” She exploded in anger and glared at him. “Take your son and stay far away from my child! Does he actually understand what a bastard means? Does he know who exactly is the bastard?!”

“Xiao Ling!” This time, Li Lei’s expression slightly changed. How could she talk about Li Rui like that? Only Su Tang, Old Master Li, him and she knew that Li Rui was not his biological son. The rest of the world, including Li Rui, thought that Li Rui was his son.

“Don’t go too far.” He said in a more severe tone to protect Li Rui.

Xia Ling sneered. “Who exactly is the one that went too far?” She pointed at the door. “Get lost! Li Lei, you better leave immediately! Not only did you bully me, but your child also bullied mine! You are not welcomed here, so get lost!”

She was fuming.

Li Lei knew that this was not the time to reason with her. If they continued to argue like this, she might even say more hurtful things. The reason why he came to the banquet today was not to make her angry. Thus, he took Li Rui’s hand and said, “I’m really sorry, Xiao Ling. I will apologize again another time.”

He turned around and was about to leave with Li Rui.

“Wait.” Suddenly, Shaohui stopped them with a soft voice.

Li Lei turned around and lowered his head to look at the child inquiringly.

“When you come to apologize, remember to bring Li Rui.” Shaohui said every word seriously. “He owes me an apology. Furthermore, I’m not younger than him. He should be the one calling me elder brother.”

Li Lei was shocked. This child looked shorter than Li Rui, so why did he have more presence than Li Rui?

Li Rui snorted coldly. “Apologize? In your dreams! I’ll get someone to kill you!”

“Xiao Rui!” This time, Li Lei was even stricter. This child was overly arrogant. He was too self-important and did not know how to get along with other children.

Li Rui stopped talking and turned around.

Shaohui looked seriously at Li Lei. “Uncle Li, I’m very happy that you played with me today and invited me to your house to visit Er Mao. However, you shouldn’t bully Sister. If you don’t bring Li Rui over to apologize to us, in the future, you don’t have to play with me anymore.”

Xia Ling was very confused. What was he talking about? Was he referring to how Li Lei forcefully kissed her just now? However, how was that related to Li Rui? It was really… strange.

However, Li Lei sort of understood the underlying meaning. Could it be that this matter involved Xia Ling?

His expression became stern.

However, Shaohui stopped talking to him. He raised his chubby face and looked at Xia Ling. “Sister, let’s play with the other children, ok?”

“You’re badly hurt but you still want to play?” Xia Ling felt angry yet amused at the same time.

Shaohui nodded vigorously. “I promised to help Sister Cherry make a wood castle. Uncle said that boys who lie to girls are the worst.”
