Zongman: Nagasaki Sushi's adopted brother

"Well, thank you..." Su Shi just took the sour plum soup, his body suddenly went limp and he fell heavily to the ground.

"Customer! Customer!! Sushi!!!"

...

In the evening, a faint smell of disinfectant filled the health room, and the trainee nurse Ms. Ob was sorting the medical records on the table.

After a while, she received a new order, oh no, it should be a new patient.

Nagasaki Suyo was lying on the white hospital bed and was pushed in front of her.

Xiangzi slapped his head with his right hand, looking a little annoyed, his face dark, and he muttered to himself.

[Have I committed a sin today? ]

Even after getting paid, work still needs to be done. Xiangzi took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and began to perform his duties conscientiously.

She lifted Su Shi's body and cleaned her body with a hot towel. Her fingers gently wiped Su Shi's skin, making sure every corner was clean.

Then he helped Su Shi prepare the nutritional drip.

Xiangzi operated skillfully, ensuring the speed and dosage of the drip were appropriate, with a hint of concentration in his eyes.

After everything was done, Xiangzi sat by the bed and looked at Nagasaki Suyo quietly.

What on earth brought the two of them together in this strange place? Xiangzi tilted his head slightly, his fingers unconsciously twisting the corner of his clothes.

If it weren't for my father...where would we be headed?

Xiangzi sighed, a hint of helplessness in her voice. She reached out and gently stroked Su Shi's bangs, her movements gentle and slow.

Her fingers gently stroked Su Shi's hair, and a hint of tenderness appeared in her eyes.

And Su Shi's sunken cheeks tell of the suffering she has endured.

Suddenly, a calm male voice sounded.

"Nagasaki Suyo...Is she okay?"

The Bai Ye in front of him most likely rushed over after hearing the news that Su Shi had fainted.

But even so, his feet were still stuck firmly on the bottom door frame.

Didn't even step into the ward.

Xiangzi pretended not to know Bai Ye and calmly explained, "It's nothing, just malnutrition and lack of rest. After the IV drip, you can go home when you wake up."

"That's good... That's good, that's good, that's good..."

Xiangzi could feel Bai Ye's shoulders relax. She nodded slightly and then asked, "Are you her family member?"

"No, just a... stranger"

Bai Ye lowered his head and hid his gaze, and the last three words seemed to be squeezed out with all his strength.

Xiangzi was silent for a moment, then looked down at Su Shi lying there, and then invited: "If you care so much, why don't you come in and take a look?"

"No, just knowing she's okay is enough. Her parents are still at work, I just came here to help check on her..."

"is it?"

Xiangzi looked at Bai Ye's feet that had never stepped in and fell into silence.

Bai Ye placed a stack of banknotes at the door, about 10 yen. His movements were a little stiff, and he was obviously trying to control his emotions.

"What is this money?"

"I hope you can take good care of her while she's still asleep. This is my reward to you."

“No, this is what I should do…”

"please!!"

Bai Ye lowered his head slightly towards Xiangzi, his movements were standard and his posture was correct, showing his strong determination. As long as Xiangzi didn't agree, he wouldn't get up.

"Okay... I'll try my best."

"Thank you!!"

Bai Ye rummaged through his bag a little anxiously, and then placed a bottle of sour plum soup at the door.

"Please give her this drink and tell her to have a good rest, please..."

With that, Bai Ye left, leaving the infirmary alone. His steps were heavy, each one carrying an endless sorrow, as his figure gradually disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Xiangzi looked at the sour plum soup and a stack of banknotes placed at the door.

I looked back at the girl lying on the bed with her eyes closed...

Su Shi frowned and shed tears.

[This family is really all idiots]

Chapter 41 Why don't you go to school? Don't shout, play games

In Hanaoka Class A, students gathered at the classroom door, discussing their recent experiences. The atmosphere was lively, with everyone chatting away.

"I heard that Xiao Deng and Goto from Class B next door are performing."

"Eh? Where's the band?"

"Occasionally, there's a girl with white jellyfish hair who comes over to help play the guitar."

"It seems the topic has spread now."

“I’ve never seen anything like this.”

"Ah? It's Xiao Deng!"

As soon as Gao Songdeng arrived at the door, she was surrounded by classmates, chatting about various topics. She smiled awkwardly, obviously a little surprised by everyone's attention.

The red-haired student from the traffic light trio at the end of the classroom looked at Aine and said, "Lamp-chan seems to be very famous."

Aine's brows knitted slightly, clearly thinking about something important, "As expected, you still care about me... Why exactly is Bai Ye..."

She looked up at the rooftop, her eyes filled with anticipation and longing.

However, the rooftop was empty, and she didn't see the dazzling blue. A trace of disappointment flashed across her eyes, and then she sighed softly.

After a moment of silence, Aine turned on her phone, and her fingers slid across the screen as she skillfully opened Line.

Then she clicked on Miao Meng's avatar and opened the dialog box.

...

"Saiyagu, no matter how I edit it, it just won't work!!" Lixi's fingers tapped on the keyboard like a storm, and every keystroke seemed to vent her dissatisfaction.

Then she suddenly grabbed the jelly drink next to her and drank it all in one breath, making a sizzling sound.

Bai Ye leaned against the door frame of Li Xi's room, watching Li Xi tapping away at the computer screen. He couldn't help but grumble, "You called me here just to hear you complain?"

Today, the two people who did not go to school gathered in Lixi's room.

One of the reasons why Bai Ye showed up here instead of going to school was because Hai Ling paid him a reward—thirty bottles of sour plum juice.

Another major reason is that he got lost...

Last night, Bai Ye stood at the door of the ward, looking at Su Shi lying on the bed. He didn't know what to do...

He originally thought that he would act like a villain, turn on the taunting mode, and shout "You deserve it!"

But when he actually saw Su Shi's pale face and weak appearance, those harsh words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say a word.

I don't even have the courage to enter the ward...

He didn't dare go to school. He was afraid that Su Shi would block the door again and hurt him again.

He was afraid to face Su Shi, afraid of falling into that kind of inescapable pain again.

"Hey?!"

"Hey, are you listening? Bai Ye!" Li Xi turned around and shouted at Bai Ye, his anger obviously not yet subsided.

"What's wrong, Brother Lixi?"

"Come and help me compose music." Li Xi stood up hurriedly, pulled out his chair with a rustling sound, and wanted Bai Ye to sit over.

Bai Ye was still leaning against the door, motionless.

"Bai Ye, why don't you come over?"

"It's troublesome to ask someone to do something, so please say please first~"

"Bai Ye, you bastard!"

"Speak first, please~"

"Bai Ye, please... help me... compose music..."

Li Xi's voice became much softer, as if suddenly overwhelmed by shyness.

"Huh? What did you say, brother Lixi?"

Li Xi was completely determined. He stomped over to Bai Ye's ear and shouted in full force, "Please compose some music for me!"

"OK, brother."

Bai Ye made a "yeah" gesture with brisk and energetic movements, and jumped to sit in front of Li Xi's computer desk.

"Let me see, Shi Chao Ki? Oh oh oh, the song that Deng sang on Ring before."

Bai Ye leaned forward slightly, his finger gently sliding across the mouse, his eyes focused on the screen, a hint of admiration on the corner of his mouth, "Li Xi, you are actually composing music for it?"

"Well...even if it's just to warm up the audience, I want to come up with something better to face the audience."

"Hey, Lixi is really amazing."

"I'm not that great..." Li Xi lowered his head slightly, his eyes dodging, and his fingers clenched unconsciously, showing his inner lack of confidence.

She recalled the past, when Bai Ye was still struggling, he casually took out "The Magician on Stage", which was so relaxed and amazed the audience.

That scene seemed to appear before her eyes again, and Bai Ye’s talent made her feel very insignificant.

[In front of a real monster, I am nothing]

"Hmm... Wow, that's bad!!" Bai Ye shook his head frantically, tapping his fingers rapidly on the keyboard as if racing against time, and suddenly shouted.

There was a hint of panic in his voice, and it was obvious that he had discovered some difficult problem.

"Bai Ye, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with the song?!"

"I hooked onto a big rock, woooo..."

"Huh? A big rock?!"

Li Xi ran to Bai Ye's side in a hurry, her footsteps echoing in the room. She quickly leaned over to look at the computer screen, her eyes revealing deep worry.

I saw an old man with gray hair above the computer screen, pulling a grappling hook with a large black stone at the end.

The scene was a little funny, but Bai Ye's expression was very serious.

"what is this?"

"Mini game, Gold Miner..." Bai Ye's fingers tapped lightly on the keyboard, his movements neither hurried nor slow, obviously introducing the game he was playing.

"what?"

"Haven't you ever played this before? Look on the right. Those are the gold coins I've collected so far, and above them is the target amount. It's over. I've hit a rock, and there's not enough time. I'm going to die if I don't reach my goal."

"What are you doing!" Li Xi angrily shook Bai Ye's chair, his movements a little roughly, obviously he was very dissatisfied with Bai Ye's behavior.

I clearly asked Bai Ye to help me compose the music, but this bastard was actually playing games! He was even playing four, three, nine, nine!

Li Xi's mood became very bad, and his intensity became stronger and stronger, showing his extreme impatience.

Her brows were furrowed, and the anger in her eyes almost burst out.

After a while, Lixi finally stopped rocking the chair.

The reason is simple: tired.

Bai Ye also lost the joyful experience of rocking chair.

"I don't think the music you composed needs to be changed." Bai Ye looked at the pop-up window on the screen indicating that the game had failed, his eyes changing from cynical to serious.

He obviously said this after careful consideration.

"Bai Ye, are you serious?"
