Chapter 816: Chapter 552: The Child’s Discovery
After a long silence absorbing what Zhou Mikang said, Chuxia asked again, “Is it a comminuted fracture or another type?”
“Which one do you wish it was?” Zhou Mikang asked.
So insidious! Chuxia secretly rolled her eyes, but did he really think she’d fall for that? She simply turned her face to the window and remained silent.
“Are you angry?”
“You’re just trying to see if I’m cruel or kind-hearted, aren’t you?” Chuxia gave him a sidelong glance, “I’ll tell you, I refuse to answer.”
“…” Zhou Mikang sighed helplessly, “I just wanted to talk to you a bit more, chat a little, so I deliberately found sothing to talk about.
Yes, it’s comminuted, but the doctor also said that as long as she follows the dical advice and recovers well, there’s a good chance of complete recovery. But this year, it looks like she’ll spend in the hospital.”
“Do you think her grandfather will co to settle the score with you?” Chuxia blinked her big eyes, “And will he use public office to take personal revenge against you?”
“Let him co, would I be afraid?” Zhou Mikang said indifferently, “Since I did it, I have nothing to fear. If they can’t even manage their own granddaughter, how can they bla ?”
“I hope he thinks that way.” Chuxia patted Zhou Mikang sympathetically, “Sorry to let you suffer grievances, when a man pesters , I promise I’ll handle it as decisively as you did.”
“You’d break soone’s leg too?” Zhou Mikang scrutinized her, “Do you have that guts?”
“Decisive doesn’t necessarily an breaking soone’s leg, aren’t you being too narrow-minded?” Chuxia rolled her eyes again, “Why do I feel like despising you, you really lack imagination.”
“Then tell , how would you deal with the other party?” Zhou Mikang looked at her eagerly, “You’ve piqued my curiosity, you might as well teach too, so next ti I won’t have to resort to such violent ans.”
“Didn’t you say you didn’t do it on purpose?” Chuxia grinned mischievously, “Look, you’ve slipped up.”
The smile on Zhou Mikang’s face gradually faded, and he remained silent for a long ti.
Secretly glancing at him, Chuxia quickly tried to appease him: “I was joking, don’t be angry. In fact, knowing you care about so much makes very happy in my heart, but I also feel that the other party hasn’t really done anything to harm . Thinking this way seems a bit unkind.”
“The way I dealt with her is actually for everyone’s good.” Sighing, Zhou Mikang said, “Since the last ti she went to the performance with her grandfather, I discovered she is as domineering and selfish as Ye iru.
I made it quite clear then, but I didn’t expect her to co again. I don’t want a second Ye iru appearing in front of you, doing things to disgust you repeatedly.
With this kind of person, reasoning is useless, ignoring her is also useless. I had no choice but to co at her strong, at least this way she will completely understand that I don’t like her one bit.
Even if she hates and seeks vengeance, it doesn’t matter. Dealing with an enemy is much easier than dealing with a pestering acquaintance not quite friend nor foe.”
“Zhou Mikang…” Chuxia stared at him earnestly, “Thank you!”
“Why make such a big deal out of it?” Zhou Mikang frowned, “Seeing you like this earlier, I thought you were going to lecture with so grand principle, and scared to death.”
“What’s there to preach about? To be blunt, as a woman, I like a man pampering like this, but I also know it’s too selfish.
Making too many enemies isn’t good for you or . However, as much as I understand the principle, I still like everything you’ve done for , Zhou Mikang, I’m liking you more and more, what to do?”
“It’s okay, the more you like , the happier I am.” Zhou Mikang smiled as he patted her head, “I now feel that everything I have done is worth it.”
“Even going to jail is worth it?”
“Of course it’s worth it, but…” Zhou Mikang shrugged, “The accident’s fault lies with Su Jiaohong, and it’s impossible for them to make go to jail.”
“Sorry, I really can’t understand how you managed to make her the responsible party for the accident…” Chuxia looked at him, puzzled, “Could it be she wanted to die with you?”
“Not quite that bad…” Zhou Mikang’s lips curled into a mocking smile, “She’s probably spoiled by her family, thinking everyone should revolve around her.
After leaving the hospital, she kept following , even if I ignored her and didn’t look at her. She still followed , later, perhaps annoyed by my attitude, she deliberately started her car and ramd towards mine.
She probably thought in that situation, I’d definitely choose to retreat, otherwise I’d be more injured than her. Unfortunately, what she didn’t realize was, even if she crashed directly into my car or into , I’d still have ways to not get hurt at all.
So, at the mont I saw her crashing, not only did I not retreat my car, but I moved towards hers instead. As a result, the driver’s seat crashed heavily into the side of my car’s front.
If the car she was driving wasn’t spacious enough, it wouldn’t just be a problem of a comminuted fracture in the calf, she’d be lucky if her intestines weren’t crushed.
“Hiss…” Chuxia took in two breaths, “Fortunately, I’m your wife, and fortunately, I didn’t fall for you first, otherwise, tsk tsk…”
Zhou Mikang glared at her and stopped talking.
“Are you really angry this ti?”
“…”
“I’m sorry, I was wrong. I was just joking. I know you wouldn’t treat that way. Even if I liked you first, you wouldn’t treat like that. I really know.”
“…”
“Zhou Mikang, let’s not be so petty, okay? I’ve already admitted my mistake. Be the bigger person and don’t hold it against , okay?”
“…”
“You’re making it aningless like this. Is silence golden?” Chuxia sighed. “Okay, then I’ll choose the golden silence too.” She turned her head to look out the window and stayed silent.
Usually, it was fine not to talk while sitting in the car, but this ti, the silence in the driver’s seat made Chuxia feel particularly stifling. She had no choice but to turn back: “Zhou Mikang, I believe you, really.”
Zhou Mikang glanced at her lightly: “Change your tune.”
“Change how?” Chuxia scratched her head in confusion. “Can you give a hint? My mind’s a bit scrambled, scared by you.”
“Tell how you feel about .”
“Huh?” Chuxia was stunned for a mont, then quickly understood his aning and curled her lip in disdain, “Zhou Mikang, it’s not right to take advantage of soone. I don’t want to say that to you yet.”
“What, do you have other ideas? Want to like another man?”
“Oh, this sentence?” Chuxia giggled, “This one I can say, Zhou Mikang, I like you!”
“Not enough.”
“You rascal!”
“…”
The car drove back to the Zhou family, and it was already past six in the evening. At the door, they ran into Yingying, who mysteriously grabbed Chuxia and hurried into the hall. After greeting all the elders, she mysteriously dragged Chuxia back to her room: “Little… Third Aunt, I have a secret to tell you. Little Auntie Jing t up with a man and even held hands.”
Ever since Zhou Zhongkang and his wife returned, Yingying stopped calling Chuxia Little Aunt and started calling her Third Aunt, which was particularly awkward for the two of them, often ending up as Little… Third Aunt…
“What do you an?” Chuxia looked at her puzzled, “Little Jing t with so man? Why are you making such a fuss, little girl? Do you really understand what you’re saying?”
“Little… Third Aunt, you don’t believe .” Yingying pouted, “I didn’t tell anyone, and I told Third Aunt first, and yet you still treat like this. If I have secrets in the future, I won’t tell you anymore.”
Chuxia hurried to apologize: “I just thought you were so young that you wouldn’t understand. I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t underestimate kids. Tell in detail what happened.”
“These days, it’s been Little Auntie Jing picking up from school. Every ti I co out, she’s standing with an uncle. Today they held hands and let go quickly when they saw , thinking I didn’t notice, but I saw everything.
Grandma told that girls shouldn’t let boys hold their hands, only bad girls let boys hold hands. Third Aunt, Little Jing is a bad girl, right?”
After thinking about it, Chuxia explained: “You can’t say it like that. Little Auntie Jing is at the age to find a boyfriend. Maybe the one holding her hand is her boyfriend. After so ti, they can get married, so holding hands like this doesn’t necessarily an she’s a bad girl.”
“She always used to ask about the Third Uncle and Third Aunt, and she said bad things about Third Aunt. Hmph, I really don’t like her. Now, she doesn’t say bad things about Third Aunt anymore, and she’s holding a man’s hand. She must be a bad girl!” The little girl wrinkled her nose and emphasized again, “That’s right, she’s a bad girl, and I even saw her secretly sniffing Third Uncle’s shoes, not even minding the sll!”
Initially, Chuxia didn’t think too much of it, but when she heard Yingying say that Little Jing was sniffing Zhou Mikang’s shoes, she frowned.
Doing such things, she wouldn’t believe that Little Jing didn’t have thoughts about Zhou Mikang even if she were beaten to death. However, considering her age, having fantasies about Zhou Mikang was normal too.
But knowing about it, she couldn’t just hold it in and play dumb. So matters, if left to guessing, only make the outco worse. It’s better to ask directly, so everyone is clear.
After dinner, Chuxia used the excuse of having eaten too much and needing to go for a walk and pulled Little Jing along with her.
“Third Young Madam, it would be better to have the Third Young Master accompany you.” As they left the door, Little Jing looked nervous, “I’m not good with words and might bore the Third Young Madam.”
Chuxia glanced at her lightly: “What, are you scared to walk with ?”
“No! No!” Little Jing waved her hands repeatedly, “The Third Young Madam is such a nice person. How could I be scared? I’m not even happy enough to walk with you.” (To be continued.
