Chapter 492: Chapter 490: This Time It’s Not Worth the Loss
How could they have such a dumb younger brother?
Just looking at him gives me a headache.
If Pei Huai hadn’t repeatedly instructed them, saying Xia Wenyan was only attacked because of his involvement,
He hoped they would help soothe Xia Wenyan and try their best to keep him from finding out about it.
They had also been getting along well with Pei Huai lately, so they agreed.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be fussing over this.
Wen Qingyu lifted her foot and kicked Xia Wenyan off the hospital bed, "I think you’re just itching for a beating, not having been hit for three days leads you to tear off roofs."
Falling on the floor, Xia Wenyan instantly felt reassured.
Indeed, group bullying suited him.
Being the treasured favorite of the group was better left to his beloved sister.
When Lu Zhaozhao and Song Sinian arrived at the hospital, they just saw Xia Wenyan being kicked off the bed by Wen Qingyu.
She was immediately stunned.
What had her fourth brother done wrong to have their mother kick him flying?
The Xia Family heard the noise at the door and saw that it was Lu Zhaozhao, quickly gathering around her.
"Zhaozhao, you came too?" Wen Qingyu looked somewhat guilty as she thought about her "loving" kick that her precious daughter must have witnessed.
Would this leave her with an impression of domestic violence?
Lu Zhaozhao paused, then chuckled and hooked her lips, "I heard fourth brother had a car accident, so I came to see him."
Wen Qingyu secretly sighed with relief, "Cough cough... your fourth brother just has a minor injury. He was just itching because he felt uncomfortable under the care of the whole family. I gave him a little treatment."
Xia Wenyan’s face immediately collapsed, looking pitifully at Lu Zhaozhao, "It’s because you all are usually so harsh on me, then suddenly so gentle, who could think positively? Besides, I just have a minor fracture in my arm, and when I woke up, I found the whole family gathered here, wouldn’t that scare me?"
As he spoke, he even pathetically moved closer to Lu Zhaozhao, "I even thought I was about to pass away!"
Lu Zhaozhao, who was a bit nervous earlier, instantly felt relaxed by Xia Wenyan’s words.
Her silly sweet fourth brother was really adorable.
No wonder Pei Huai was so persistent.
The longer you stay in the darkness, the more you yearn for the sunlight.
Her fourth brother, resembling a little sun, was indeed rare.
Lu Zhaozhao raised her hand and rubbed Xia Wenyan’s head, and he immediately leaned in like a big dog, obediently saying, "If they were even half as nice to me as they are to you, I wouldn’t be so scared. I was really frightened just now, sob... little sister, I’m truly pitiful..." 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Xia Wenjue: "..."
Xia Wenqing: "..."
Xia Wenmo: "..."
Wen Qingyu: "..."
Just now, who was it complaining about them being too nice to him?
Now here he is, pitifully trying to gain sympathy in front of his sister, huh!
Xia Wenjue, Xia Wenqing, and Xia Wenmo very tacitly glanced at each other, then each one grabbed an arm or a leg and decidedly carried him back to the hospital bed.
"Don’t worry, from today onwards, your big brother promises to take good care of you every day," Xia Wenjue said as he "tenderly" rubbed his head.
At the side, Xia Wenqing stuffed the unfinished orange into Xia Wenyan’s mouth, "From now on, your second brother will take good care of you."
"From now on, I will supervise you every day to make sure you undergo proper post-surgery checkups," Xia Wenmo said, casting a glance at his slung arm, his voice chilly.
With his mouth full of orange, Xia Wenyan looked pitifully at his three brothers, who were watching him intently. He sought help from Lu Zhaozhao but was deftly blocked by the three.
Xia Wenyan: "..."
Was it still possible to regret coming now?
Whimpering, if he had known, he would have acted spoiled only when his sister was around.
Now he was being watched by his three brothers.
This had certainly backfired.
Xia Wenyan blinked in annoyance, but unfortunately, no one paid him any attention.
Wen Qingyu, because Lu Zhaozhao had been hospitalized and hadn’t seen her before, now eagerly pulled Lu Zhaozhao for a walk outside the hospital since she had come on her own initiative.
Although Song Sinian was somewhat upset, he still stayed in the hospital room.
Wen Qingyu held Lu Zhaozhao’s hand, her eyes gentle as she looked at her, "Zhaozhao, how has your body been recovering? Have you felt any discomfort elsewhere after your cold?"
The two were walking and talking in the corridor.
Since Lu Zhaozhao and Song Sinian hadn’t arrived early, Wen Qingyu planned to take her first to a nearby coffee shop to sit for a while and have some sweet treats.
Lu Zhaozhao shook her head softly, "Mom, you don’t need to worry. I’ve long been well, I just didn’t take care the other night, so I caught a cold."
Because Song Sinian had been overly concerned about her, her cold had made everyone else feel extremely alarmed.
Lu Zhaozhao wished she could carve out a three-bedroom apartment right there with her toes.
Wen Qingyu sighed softly, holding Lu Zhaozhao’s hand and couldn’t help patting it, "Had I known you caught colds so easily, we should have switched our plans to daytime. It looks like our recent plans need some adjustment."
She kept talking to herself, unconsciously calculating in her mind.
She hadn’t noticed that when they left the hospital, they had already been followed by strangers.
Lu Zhaozhao, already feeling a bit awkward, wished she could find something else to distract her attention.
Then she inadvertently caught sight of a few odd people.
Her brow furrowed, she couldn’t help but take another glance and quickly noticed something was off.
Lu Zhaozhao’s gaze swept over Wen Qingyu, thinking of her mother’s capabilities, it seemed... there was no problem.
But if there were other people following them.
Lu Zhaozhao narrowed her eyes, remembering that Song Sinian had mentioned that the people who targeted her fourth brother were influential in their country.
Otherwise, Pei Huai wouldn’t have found it so troublesome.
She pursed her lips, her initial thought of risking herself promptly stopped.
Lu Zhaozhao immediately took out her phone and sent a message in the Xia family’s group chat, "Mom and I might be being watched downstairs."
The moment this message was sent, everyone’s phones in the hospital room rang simultaneously.
Nearly at the same time, everyone frowned, their expressions darkening the instant they saw the message.
Xia Wenjue sneered coldly, "They really dare, after picking up Wan Lao Si, they still dare to extend their claws toward our mom and Zhaozhao."
"Since they’ve come, let’s not let them go back," Xia Wenqing slowly stood up, straightened his collar, and exchanged a glance with Xia Wenmo.
Xia Wenmo, holding his phone, had already sent out a message.
He looked at the other two who had stood up and said softly, "Let dad stay here to look after Lao Si, we’ll be back soon."
