Chapter 39
But after walking into the ward, I couldn't help but gasp a little.
The girl lying on the hospital bed in front of her was thin and small, and she did not look like she was 15 years old. Some people probably believed her when she said she was only [-] or [-] years old.
Hearing the sound of them coming in, the girl didn't move. She turned her back to everyone, her little body curled up in the bed, and her whole body showed a defensive posture.
"Mengmeng," Zhuge Ningning said cautiously, "I will bring my classmates to see you."
The girl seemed not to have heard anything and remained motionless while lying on the bed.
Zhuge Ningning wanted to say something more, but Su Chaoqi held her shoulders and shook his head at her.
Businessmen are still the best at dealing with people.
"Hello Mengmeng," Su Chaoqi greeted the girl on the hospital bed, "I am Mengmeng's schoolmate and Qiqi, the anchor of the Venus website."
Perhaps Su Chaoqi's self-introduction had an effect. Zhuge Mengmeng moved, turned over and looked at Su Chaoqi.
Su Chaoqi looked at Zhuge Mengmeng patiently.
"It's broken." Zhuge Mengmeng whispered after a while, and when he opened his mouth, tears flowed out involuntarily.
What's broken?What he said was confusing.
Zhuge Ningning explained for his sister: "Mengmeng actually won a bowl of soybean stewed pig's trotters in a lottery in Chaoqi's live broadcast room, but her mother saw it when it was delivered to her home. When her mother saw it, she grabbed it and refused to let Mengmeng eat it. As a result, it was smashed on the ground.”
Su Chaoliu and Su Chaoqi frowned at the same time.
It had been a long time since they had experienced the feeling of being so controlled by their parents. Such an authoritarian approach made the two of them instinctively dislike it.
Zhuge Ningmeng explained eagerly: "Actually, my mother was also frightened. Mengmeng just came out of the hospital. She was just worried about Mengmeng."
It was also because Zhuge Mengmeng didn't eat the soybean stewed pig's trotters that Zhuge Mengmeng ran to challenge Su Chaoliu, asking Su Chaoqi to cook again.
As a result, Zhuge Mengmeng had a dispute with her mother and quarreled several times. She was so depressed that she couldn't think of anything and decided to commit suicide by cutting her wrists.
The rescue was successful, but Zhuge Mengmeng's body was already weak, and this time his vitality was severely damaged.
Su Chaoliu and Su Chaoqi looked at each other, then looked at Zhuge Mengmeng, who was soaking the pillow with tears silently, and sighed inwardly.
Strictly speaking, Mrs. Zhuge is really not to blame.
After all, in her eyes, all the dishes were the killers that would put her daughter in the hospital. It was the lack of food culture in the interstellar world that gave her this wrong perception.
In fact, soybean stewed pig's trotters is considered a warming dish for Zhuge Mengmeng, and eating it will only be good for the body.
It seemed that Su Chaoqi's identity still had to be concealed, so that Mrs. Zhuge might know that something unpleasant might happen.
However, Zhuge Mengmeng's suicide was definitely not just because Mrs. Zhuge smashed the cup of soybean stewed pig's trotters, or that the soybean stewed pig's trotters was just a trigger. The relationship between mother and daughter may have been very tense.
Su Chaoliu felt pity for the girl. She reached out and touched the girl's hair, which was much duller than her peers, and said, "You must be good. Your sister just won a dish from me."
Zhuge Mengmeng's eyes were a little brighter: "Really, can I eat it?"
She had suffered from acute gastroenteritis not long ago, and she was also afraid that something would happen to her if she ate again. She originally drew a lottery in the live broadcast room to get a sense of participation, but she actually won the lottery, and she "tasted" soybean stewed pig's trotters through synaesthesia. As for the taste, I was more looking forward to the real thing. I took a chance and thought that I could just take a bite secretly, but I didn't know that my mother would see it.
Su Chaoqi did not agree immediately, but said: "Give me your hands first."
She had to take Zhuge Mengmeng's pulse to know her physical condition and prepare some nutritious food for her.
Just as Su Chaoqi was checking Zhuge Mengmeng's pulse, the ward door opened and people walked in one after another.
Su Chao Liu raised his eyes and stood up straight immediately.
The person walking behind was Yan Hanguang, the student council president of the Individual Soldiers Department whom Su Chaoliu knew. The person walking half a step in front of Yan Hanguang was someone Su Chaoliu had only seen in the news - Yan Tieyi.
Zhuge Ningning's voice tightened and she called out: "Cousin...cousin, second brother Yan."
Generally speaking, a tight voice also means that the person is also nervous.
Yan Hanguang naturally saw Su Chaoliu and Su Chaoqi, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Chaoliu, Senior Sister Su?"
Su Chao Liu greeted him politely: "President, Major Yan."
Yan Tieyi's cold eyes turned to the two sisters, and then he nodded slightly to say hello.
Such an attitude does seem quite arrogant, but it is also consistent with his identity.
This is what a proud man of heaven should do.
"It's time to take medicine." Yan Tieyi opened it with a small suitcase in his hand, took out a tube of medicine and handed it to Zhuge Ningning.
Zhuge Mengmeng, who had been quietly stretching out her hand to feel Su Chaoqi's pulse, suddenly became excited. She screamed and covered her head with the quilt: "I don't want to take the medicine, take it away, take it away!"
Zhuge Ningning, who originally wanted to step forward, stopped, feeling embarrassed and not knowing what to do.
Yan Tieyi narrowed his eyes and walked to the hospital bed. Su Chaoqi, who was checking Zhuge Mengmeng's pulse, had to make way.
"Come out," Yan Tieyi said in a cold and tough tone, with a deterrent that cannot be ignored, "take the medicine."
The girl huddled under the quilt and refused to move, her resistance clearly Tieyi stretched out his hand to peel off Zhuge Mengmeng's quilt.
How could a thin girl be the opponent of a major in the First Army? Yan Tieyi easily tore off the quilt Zhuge Mengmeng used to protect himself, suppressed the girl who kept punching and kicking him with one hand, and threw Zhuge Mengmeng's hand at Zhuge Mengmeng with one hand. Ning Ning reached over, obviously intending to take the tube of medicine and force-feed it to the girl.
"Brother," Yan Hanguang couldn't help but say, "The taste of the medicine is really not good. Mengmeng vomited the last time she drank it."
"So?" Yan Tieyi raised his eyelids and looked at him, "Can you just stop drinking?"
Yan Hanguang was speechless and had nothing to say.
Why would they bring it if they could stop drinking it?
It could be seen that Yan Tieyi was indeed a man of his word. Su Chao Liu looked around. Zhuge Ningning stood there as silent as a quail; Yan Hanguang was powerless, after all, the truth was indeed in Yan Tieyi's hands; and Su Chaoqi stood in the corner with nothing to do, not interested in what was happening in front of him.
She sighed, stepped forward and took away the potion from Zhuge Ningning's hand, and raised her eyes to meet Yan Tieyi's eyes.
She said to Yan Tieyi calmly: "Major, I know you are doing it for Mengmeng's own good, but I think you should go out first. You are putting too much pressure on her here."
Yan Tieyi raised his eyebrows in surprise. After looking at Su Chaoliu for a while, he sneered, released his hand that suppressed Zhuge Mengmeng, turned around and walked out.
Yan Hanguang thought for a while and followed him out.
As soon as they left, the atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed.
Zhuge Ningning held Su Chaoliu's arm with lingering fear: "You are so awesome. This is the first time I have seen someone dare to talk to my cousin like this. You actually dare to let him go out. Even my uncle dared not say that."
Su Chao Liu smiled, not caring about his great achievements, and unscrewed the lid of the medicine bottle: "Let's not talk about this anymore, let Mengmeng drink... the medicine."
When she unscrewed the bottle cap and the smell of the medicine escaped into the air, Su Chaoliu's expression suddenly changed.
Who made the medicine? The moment she smelled it, she almost couldn't help but say "yue". It's no wonder that a little girl like Zhuge Mengmeng desperately didn't want to take the medicine. She wouldn't want to take it if it were her. ah.
It's a pity that Su Chaoliu could not take medicine, but Zhuge Mengmeng could not.
Naturally, Zhuge Mengmeng still resisted taking the medicine, but Su Chaoqi said: "Take the medicine and feel better soon. Then come to my studio to play, and I will cook for you."
Hearing this, Zhuge Mengmeng's eyes lit up, but then he hesitated: "But I'm afraid..."
"You won't throw up," Su Chaoqi assured her, "I won't cook food that will make you throw up."
Although he was doubtful about Su Chaoqi's words, his desire for food still prevailed. Zhuge Mengmeng finally took the potion and drank it in one gulp as if he was dead.
The potion tasted just like the smell. After drinking it, Zhuge Mengmeng lay on the bedside and retched, her little face turned red from the pain.
Zhuge Ningning quickly brought her a glass of water and patted her back to calm her down.
Su Chaoliu thought of something, took out an apple from his space button, looked at Su Chaoqi, and after confirming that Zhuge Mengmeng could eat it, handed the apple to her.
The sweet and sour taste of the apple somewhat suppresses the medicinal taste.
Their visit today was over. Zhuge Ningning gave her sister a bunch of instructions, and then led Su Chaoliu and Su Chaoqi out of the ward.
Yan Tieyi and Yan Hanguang were still waiting outside the door.
Yan Hanguang asked: "Has Mengmeng taken the medicine?"
Zhuge Ningning nodded.
Yan Tieyi asked sharply: "What conditions did she impose on you?"
Zhuge Ningning didn't know how to answer this, and she didn't dare to lie under Yan Tieyi's gaze.
In order to escape as soon as possible, Su Chaoliu had no choice but to speak out again: "It's just an agreement to play together next time."
I don't know if Yan Tieyi believed this, but he finally didn't ask any more questions. Zhuge Ningning immediately said: "Then let's go first. Goodbye, cousin, and goodbye, second brother Yan."
Then she pulled Su Chaoliu and Su Chaoqi and ran quickly.
When Yan Tieyi couldn't see them anymore, she stopped and patted her chest: "I'm scared to death. Why is my cousin getting more and more scary?"
Su Chao Liu raised his eyebrows: "Why are you so afraid of him?"
"Who is not afraid," Zhuge Ningning said smoothly, "I have been afraid of him since I was a child. He is more fierce than my father."
Su Chaoliu recalled that such a sharp and cold temperament was indeed very distant and intimidating.
She smiled inexplicably.
"Speaking of which," Su Chaoqi asked softly, "Did Mengmeng often ask for favors from you for drinking medicine before?"
Zhuge Ningning nodded without thinking: "She is young, and the medicine is indeed terrible to drink, and she often acts coquettishly."
It's a pity that this kind of coquettishness obviously doesn't work with Yan Tieyi. It's no wonder that Yan Tieyi wants to force it down directly.
Although the technique was rough, Su Chaoqi personally strongly agreed with this approach.
