The unattainable beauty was driven to depravity and madness by a wicked seed.

Of course there are.

knee.

But there are small flowers on my legs, so I can't pull my pants down.

Seeing that Chen Jingmo seemed to want to say something but couldn't, Shi Qianqiu nodded knowingly and told him to sit down first. She then went to get a clean towel and basin, filled the basin with water, and came back to wipe Chen Jingmo's face and hands.

Principal: This guy is a good person.

When a kind person comes, he should leave. Before leaving, he said that the school would reimburse Chen Ziqiu and Chen Jingmo's medical expenses.

The nurse quickly came over, covered the gauze with a gauze soaked in saline solution to soften it, removed it, applied medicine, and replaced it with a new gauze.

It really hurts.

Chen Jingmo couldn't hold back his tears, and Shi Qianqiu wiped them away for him with heartache.

Chen Yunting said, "Does it hurt that much? What's a grown man like you crying about?"

Shi Qianqiu said, "Uncle Chen, people can feel pain."

Are people who can't feel pain still human?

Fang Chi said, "Wouldn't it hurt if you had such a big wound on you?"

Chen Yunting felt extremely embarrassed. "Fang Chi, why are you being so biased today, always siding with them?"

"You're comparing a father to his child? And you even use the word 'favoritism'? Well, let's put it this way," Fang Chi pointed at Chen Ziqiu, "aren't you biased towards him either?"

Then, pointing at Chen Jingmo, she said, "You're talking about your son without even knowing the facts."

Finally, pointing to himself, he said, "I'm the kind of person who only believes in reason; whoever is wrong, I'll point it out."

Shi Qianqiu wiped Chen Jingmo's face, then picked him up. Chen Yunting looked at him and said, "How old are you that you still need your brother to carry you!"

"It's not my brother!"

"Hey you--"

Snapped.

"Chen Yunting, how come I never discovered you were this kind of person before we got married? The two of them were doing just fine, and you had to come here and stir up trouble. No wonder people say that brotherly discord is mostly due to the elders' lack of virtue!"

"...? I'm sowing discord? You don't know how this brat treated his brother before—"

"What do you mean, 'little brat'? He's your son! How can you call your son that?!"

Shi Qianqiu had Chen Jingmo hug her neck as they walked out. When they passed Chen Yunting, she said she would take Chen Jingmo home first. When they got outside to pay the medical bills, the head nurse said that someone had already paid.

He hummed in agreement, took some gauze and anti-inflammatory medicine, and carefully asked how to treat it afterward. Thinking that Chen Jingmo might have bruises in other places, he also took some ointment.

Chen Jingmo buried his face in Shi Qianqiu's neck. After leaving the hospital, he said his arm hurt. Shi Qianqiu patted his back, opened the umbrella, and quickly returned to the car, telling the driver to drive.

"It hurts." Chen Jingmo rubbed Shi Qianqiu's face. "My knee hurts too, and so does the left side of my buttock."

Shi Qianqiu reached out and touched it. "Is this the place?"

"A little further out... Ouch, that hurts."

Shi Qianqiu pursed her lips and told the driver to drive to the nearby hospital. She then told him to raise the partition, put one arm around Chen Jingmo's waist and lift him up, and used the other hand to pull down his pants, where there was a large bruise. When they arrived at the hospital entrance, Shi Qianqiu carried him down to take X-rays until it was confirmed that there was no fracture before they went home.

Chen Jingmo walked with a limp, and Shi Qianqiu carried him to the toilet and then to the shower. She naturally noticed the ring on his hand, curled her knuckles slightly, and casually asked, "Who gave it to you?"

Chen Jingmo's eyelashes twitched, and he said casually, "Lu Sui."

And then...

That was the last time.

When they went to sleep that night, Qianqiu had Chen Jingmo lie on his side, draped his injured arm over her waist, and got up in the middle of the night to change his bandage.

The principal granted Chen Jingmo leave.

Lu Sui called Chen Jingmo again to ask how he was doing and wanted to video chat with him. Chen Jingmo knew that if they video chatted, Lu Sui would definitely want to see his wounds, and he was afraid of scaring him, so he didn't. Lu Sui got angry and threatened to pin Jiang Xiu to the top of his chat list.

Chen Jingmo was so angry that he said he would just pin Jiang Xiu to the top of his chat list and then go to the school to beat him up once his arm was healed.

Jiang Xiu already knew that Chen Jingmo's arm was injured and that he was right next to Lu Sui. Hearing this, he said expressionlessly, "Brother Chen, if you have the guts, say what you just said again, and I promise I'll cry for you."

"What did I just say?"

"..." Still as shameless as ever, "Has the wound scabbed over yet?"

"No, it keeps leaking tissue fluid, and we've changed the gauze several times."

"Does it hurt?"

"nonsense!"

"How did you get hurt?"

"Don't even mention it. My second uncle had a relapse and tried to scam me. He had an empty medicine bottle in his pocket, so I had no choice but to run to the clinic to buy it for him. On the way, I missed a step on the stairs. Despite my disability, I bravely bought the medicine, forced it down his throat, and saved his life. Even after all that, he still yelled at me. In the end, he still tried to scam me again. The most ridiculous thing is that my old bastard father said I must have said something to make him so angry. Haha, my dad has a pretty strong mentality. He argues with me every day, but he's still alive."

"Brother Chen, you suffered all these grievances yesterday, why are you only telling us today? And I was the one who asked you first. Although the boss and I went home, our home is not far from the school. You should have told us immediately so we could have taken you to the hospital."

"What's so unfair about that? It's my own fault for not watching where I was going."

Lu Sui instinctively wanted to glare at Chen Jingmo, but then realized this wasn't a video call and said, "If he hadn't bought you medicine, you wouldn't have fallen. You should blame him, not yourself."

Chen Jingmo suddenly realized, "Oh right, it's all his fault! If it weren't for his father, I wouldn't have fallen!"

"Silly."

Jiang Xiu whispered to Lu Sui, "Boss, Brother Chen isn't stupid, he's just been wronged too much."

He then raised his voice, "Brother Chen, although I'm not good at fighting, I have a brother. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I'll call him over to stand up for you."

"Shen Qinghuai will also stand up for you," Lu Sui said.

Chen Jingmo was deeply moved; even though Shi Qianqiu had returned, he was still sobbing into his pillow.

Upon hearing the sound, Shi Qianqiu quickly picked him up and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

"Miss you."

Shi Qianqiu breathed a sigh of relief, carried Chen Jingmo to the living room, changed the gauze again, washed some fruit and put it on the table for him to eat, put on an apron to cook, and turned on the TV to tune it to a comedy show so that he wouldn't be bored.

Three days passed, and Chen Jingmo's wound scabbed over, but he couldn't bend his arm, otherwise the scabs would easily crack. Shi Qianqiu tied a small stick to the inside of his arm.

Chen Jingmo hadn't worn the ring Lu Sui gave him for the past three days. He only put it on when he went to school the next day. Shi Qianqiu saw it and asked why. Chen Jingmo lowered his eyes and said softly, "I'm not used to wearing it."

"I'm not used to wearing it... What about a bracelet? Will I be able to get used to wearing a bracelet?"

Chen Jingmo didn't understand what Shi Qianqiu meant. Did she mean she had already bought him a ring?

No, that's impossible. Don't overthink it.

"The bracelet is alright."

"Okay, I understand."

What do you know?

Chen Jingmo really wanted to ask, but in the end he didn't. When he got to the garage, he opened the car door and got out. He had only taken two steps when he turned around and saw that Shi Qianqiu hadn't left and was standing there watching him. After the car window rolled down, he walked back, leaned in halfway, and planted a kiss on Shi Qianqiu's lips, whispering, "Don't forget to pick me up this afternoon."

"Um."

"You can leave now."

Shi Qianqiu didn't leave until Chen Jingmo was out of sight before letting the driver drive off.

the other side.

Chen Yunting glared at Chen Jingmo with eyes blazing with anger.

Did you just kiss him?

-

Chen Jingmo didn't wear the ring for those three days because she felt like she was rushing to remind Shi Qianqiu to buy her one too, to propose to her, but they both knew this relationship was particularly difficult, so... she took it off.
