59 Bruised ribs
“Little girl, he is a minor. We need to inform his parents, “The doctor said, looking at the young girl in the school uniform. He could tell that the girl was hardly sixteen years old but was accompanying an injured boy to the hospital.
The girl was excessively smart but she was a bit cold in temperament. He hadn’t seen her showing any kind of emotion on her face and this was bothering him for some reason. At that age, when girls were supposed to be cute and talkative, she was reserved and cold.
Song Xueyun merely looked at the doctor as she said, “I’m his friend. His parents are out of the country for work. He lives with his grandmother who is sick and bedridden. Doctor, you wouldn’t inconvenience an old and sickly woman, would you?”
Her face was so devoid of any expression that the doctor didn’t know if the girl was lying or telling the truth.
As for inconveniencing the old and sick woman, he dared not to do so!
“Doctor Xu–”
Another doctor appeared in the emergency ward where the boy was getting treated and as his face fell on Song Xueyun, he waved his hand at the girl. He had seen this girl so many times in the ER along with the same patient that he became extremely familiar with her. And he instantly understood what was happening there.
“Doctor Xu, the boy’s parents couldn’t come here,” The doctor who just came said in favour of the teenagers. “They work abroad and the boy lives with hai sick grandmother. You wouldn’t be able to contact his parents.”
Now that another doctor talked in favour of teenagers, what could Doctor Xu even do at this time? Although he knew that it would be better if he could talk to the boy’s parents once, there was still nothing he could do.
After a few hours, when the boy was given discharged, they walked out of the ER.
“Thank you,” The boy grunted as Song Xueyun brought him medicine and a water bottle while sitting on a bench next to him, outside the hospital.
“Ah Xuan, can you stop getting into fights,” Song Xueyun asked in a concerned voice. It could be seen from the change in her expressions that the boy meant something to him. “This time, you almost bruised your ribs. What if it was more serious?”
No one would be able to tell that this high and mighty boy had two aching ribs that were prevented from fracturing or bruising. Not only this but he also had a sprained hand. Still, he was going to behave as if he was still the invincible Lu Xuan.
Showing pain was beneath Lu Xuan.
He would rather dig a hole and die there than let anyone know that he was in pain.
“I broke their legs for bruising my ribs,” Lu Xuan proudly said. Although he was in pain, he couldn’t hide the swell of pride that hit his heart.
“And let me tell you, I didn’t start this fight if you don’t know the answer already, ” Lu Xuan sneered. “If you are still going to snitch on me to your dear aunt, go ahead. I’m Lu Xuan. I’m not afraid of Song Yefei or Lu Zhaolin.”
What was there to be afraid of Song Yefei or Lu Zhaolin?
What’s the worst thing that could happen to him if Song Xueyun decided to snitch on him? ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
At most, he would be beaten or locked in the room?
He didn’t mind it at all.
It wasn’t worse than he had seen.
Song Xueyun sighed as she heard his words. It was her fault for considering that he would learn to take care of himself after the accident he was in last time.
But no.
He was hellbent on destroying his life.
He was wasting his life before her eyes and there was nothing she could do to change his heart and deviate him to the right path.
From getting into unreasonable fights to underage drinking, he was doing everything and no one was able to stop him. It was as if there was no hope left for him. He wouldn’t mend his ways, no matter what.
Perhaps, it was because Lu Zhaolin, Lu Xuan’s father has stopped putting any hope in his hopeless son who was hellbent on refusing everything he would do for his son’s better future.
Song Yefei tried to persuade him to deviate from the wrong path but Lu Xuan’s grandmother wouldn’t forget to show her every time she would do something good for him that she was only a stepmother and the old woman could better take care of her grandson than a stepmother.
Everyone in the world was wrong in Old woman’s eyes but Lu Xuan. More than anyone else, Song Yifei was wrong in her eyes.
Lu Xuan wouldn’t listen to his father, no matter what punishment he has to go through for defying his father. Song Yifei couldn’t say anything to him because of the old woman and the old woman Lu couldn’t see anything wrong with him.
Song Xueyun could see his grim future.
There was no one in this world who would persuade the boy to be better.
When Lu Xuan was suspended from school, he cried before his grandmother about how everyone bullies him at school and Lu Zhaolin who was going to get his son’s punishment forgiven punished his son further by extending his suspension and putting him under home tutors but every day the tutors would run after getting tormented by the so-called son.
It was not just the Lu family that Lu Xuan had tormented to show his rebellious behaviour but the tutors and classmates too.
