Jiang Zhuo's phone suddenly rang, and the contact person displayed on the screen was Jiang Yan.

Jiang Huai, Jiang Ting, and Jiang Ning, having nothing better to do, spent the entire afternoon watching the live stream. The TV in the living room was never turned off. After Jiang Yan got off work, the four of them ate their meals while watching the TV.

Several people witnessed Jiang Guanqing being injured.

Almost instantly, the four of them stood up at the same time. Jiang Huai and Jiang Ning even cursed loudly, eager to contact Jiang Zhuo and Jiang Guanqing, but Jiang Yan stopped them.

Jiang Yan stared intently at the television screen, clenching her teeth, her temples throbbing. Only after the doctor had finished examining her older brother's injuries and he had returned to his room and lay down did Jiang Yan finally call Jiang Zhuo.

"Hey, second brother."

Jiang Zhuo's voice was trembling with tears, while Jiang Yan bit the soft flesh in her mouth, her voice still cold.

"Hold it back, aren't you ashamed? It's almost time, it's time for your medicine, brother."

Jiang Zhuo glanced at the time and nodded, "I understand. I'll go get the medicine for my brother now."

Jiang Guanqing opened his eyes wide and glanced at Jiang Zhuo.

Jiang Yan looked at the dark screen and said, "Give the phone to my older brother, I want to video chat with him."

"it is good."

"Big brother, second brother's phone call."

Jiang Guanqing took the phone, feeling guilty. He had just promised Xiao Yan that morning to take good care of herself.

"Brother, is your heart hurting?"

Jiang Guanqing was taken aback and subconsciously wanted to refute, but Jiang Yan's gaze passed through the screen and met his eyes directly.

The words that were on the tip of his tongue wouldn't come out, and his slightly open mouth closed again.

"Is your heart hurting or feeling a little tightness?"

"A tightness in your chest, and then a bit of shortness of breath?" Jiang Yan guessed.

Jiang Guanqing's eyes widened slightly. How did Xiao Yan know?

Looking at her elder brother's pale face on the screen, Jiang Yan raised her voice a few decibels, "Jiang Xiaosan!"

Jiang Zhuo had just returned with a glass of warm water when she heard the sound and quickly replied, "I'm here!"

"There was a brown bottle in the suitcase compartment. I took out two pills and gave them to my older brother to eat."

"it is good."

Jiang Zhuo immediately went to rummage through her suitcase.

Jiang Guanqing looked at the large handful of medicine in his hand and sighed. There was already so much, why did he have to add more?

"Brother, is your knee burning or throbbing right now?"

Jiang Guanqing's fingertips trembled, but he didn't say anything. If he said yes, would Xiao Yan give him a few more pills? If she kept giving him more, he wouldn't need to eat anymore; he could just take medicine and drink water to be full.

Silence means consent.

Jiang Yan's voice was calm, but her words were unsettling: "It will hurt even more tonight. Don't try to bear it, brother. If it hurts, call Jiang Xiaosan. If you can't sleep, video call me. I'll keep watch over you."

Jiang Guanqing's voice was a little hoarse as he shook his head in refusal, "Xiao Yan, I'm fine. You should get some rest; you have to go to work tomorrow."

"I've taken the day off."

Jiang Guanqing was taken aback. "What?"

"I booked the plane ticket for six o'clock tomorrow morning." Jiang Yan's eyes were filled with stubbornness; wherever his older brother was, he would be too.

It's still early. After hanging up the phone, he'll pack his things and go straight to the hospital. He'll hand over his work to his colleagues and head to Jiyang City tomorrow morning.

A series of excited voices came from the other end of the screen, "I want to go too!"

Without turning his head, Jiang Yan coldly cut off Jiang Huai and the others, saying, "You all stay at home."

Jiang Guanqing opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but Jiang Yan softened his voice when he saw this, "Big brother, you promised me."

Jiang Yan's voice was very soft, with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Guanqing felt as if a fine needle had pierced her heart. "...I'm sorry."

"Don't say sorry, I just want you to be okay."

Jiang Guanqing was stunned for a long time before nodding his head slightly.

AAA Building Materials Factory: Everyone come quick, look! Nam Yoon-ah is knocking on Zhou Mu's room door!

As soon as this comment appeared in the live stream, everyone flocked to Nan Yun'er and Zhou Mu's live stream.

Inside the room, Zhou Mu was sitting on the edge of the bed, trying to soothe Zhou Linxi. The little girl had cried herself to sleep, her eyelids drooping but she still wouldn't go to sleep. She clutched her father's finger and mumbled softly, "Big brother..."

"Good girl, Xixi."

Zhou Mu rubbed his daughter's head, but his eyes were heavy with emotion.

A knock sounded on the door, and Zhou Linxi struggled to get up, stubbornly saying, "Looking for my older brother."

Zhou Mu had no choice but to lead the stubborn little donkey outside.

The door opened, and Nam Yoon-ah stood in the doorway, her eyes red-rimmed, holding a pink and blue plush rabbit doll in her arms.

Upon seeing the two emerge, Nam Yoon-ah immediately bowed, looked at Zhou Linxi, and spoke with a trembling voice, her face full of guilt, "Xi Xi, I'm sorry. I was startled by the spilled soup and accidentally bumped into you. It was my fault, and I apologize."

As she spoke, Nam Yoon-ah held out the plush rabbit to Zhou Linxi, "Xi Xi, can you forgive your sister?"

Zhou Linxi didn't say anything, but shrank back behind Zhou Mu.

Zhou Mu reached out to protect Zhou Linxi's back, his eyes cold, "No..."

Zhou Mu and Zhou Linxi's eyes suddenly went blank for a moment.

The indifference in his eyes receded like the tide, and Zhou Mu looked down at his daughter.

Zhou Linxi blinked, the timidity on her face gradually fading, her gaze falling on the pink and blue plush rabbit, revealing a hint of longing.

Zhou Mu bent down, his voice much gentler than before, "Your sister apologized and brought a gift. Should we forgive her?"

Zhou Linxi bit her lower lip, reached her little hand out from behind her father, and carefully touched the rabbit's ears. "...The rabbit is cute."

Nam Yoon-ah's heart pounded, knowing that the system had worked its magic. She quickly pushed the rabbit forward, saying, "I'm glad Hee-hee likes it. I picked it out especially for her; it's just as cute as Hee-hee."

Zhou Linxi stepped out from behind Zhou Mu, took the rabbit, hugged it to her arms, and whispered, "Thank you, sister."

Zhou Mu stood up and looked at Nan Yun'er, "It's good that Xi Xi is alright, let's just let this matter pass."

Nam Yoon-ah almost couldn't suppress the smile on her lips. It was worth the deal she made with the system. After the mission completely failed, she took the initiative to unbind herself from the system and gave all her remaining luck to it.

"Thank you, Teacher Zhou. Thank you, Xixi. I... I feel so guilty. I will definitely be more careful in the future."

AAA Building Materials Factory: ??? What's going on? Zhou Mu forgave me? Am I seeing things?

Nan Shou Xiang Gu: Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap! Zhou Mu was just cold-faced, how come his attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees?

Yoona is the most beautiful: Hahahaha, what a slap in the face! Zhou Mu has already forgiven our Yoona! Don't some people's faces hurt? I already said it was an accident.

Kongling Keyi: Holy crap, Zhou Mu's been cursed? This change is too fast! He was just saying "no" with a cold face a moment ago!!!

Yoona's guardian angel: Zhou Muming! He knows Yoona didn't mean it! A sincere apology is the best form of reciprocation, don't you understand?

Zhuozhuo Qihua: Did you guys see Zhou Mu's eyes go blank for a second? Just for a split second, like he was being controlled by something... I got goosebumps.

A little girl who loves ink-scented meat buns: Prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony...

During summer and winter vacations, my wife said: "Don't scare me, I feel a little scared. What's the background of Nam Yoon-ah?"

Peach Blossom: Don't talk nonsense. What kind of evil magic is this? After the founding of the People's Republic of China, spirits are not allowed.

Yoona is the most beautiful: Zhou Mu is a reasonable person, what does he have to do with our Yoona? Stop spreading rumors! Don't you feel ashamed?

Nam Yoon-ah's guardian star: Zhou Mu has already forgiven you, why are you still holding onto this? When will this end? Aren't you annoyed?

Mind your own business: It's Zhou Mu's business to forgive him, and it's our freedom to feel sorry for our older brother. What's it to you?

The live stream chat was in complete chaos...
