Chapter 299 - Mom Is Back
Xi Chenxiao looked at Su Jin’s worried expression and smiled. This girl only realized now? However, she might have some misunderstanding about being unreasonable or fierce. She wasn’t that unreasonable or fierce, so he replied,
“Were you very fierce just now? Were you very unreasonable?”
Su Jin saw Xi Chenxiao’s faint smile and immediately sat up straight. She was behaving that way just now because the mother and daughter had forced her. Otherwise, why would she be like that? She then said solemnly,
“That’s true. I don’t think so either. I’m a good girl.”
Su Jin sat there quietly afterward. She was always a good girl and was neither unreasonable nor fierce. Suddenly, she felt someone lifting her hand. She could not help but look at Xi Chenxiao out of the corner of her eye.
When she saw the smile on Xi Chenxiao’s face, she instantly lost herself. God, how could there be such a perfect and beautiful man? This was killing her. She could not extricate herself at all!
Xi Chenxiao took the medicine that Xi Tian brought over and carefully applied it on Su Jin using his fingers. He looked extremely careful, afraid that he would hurt Su Jin. Her palm was so red, it must hurt.
When Su Jin saw Xi Chenxiao’s seriousness, she even thought that he was not applying medicine on her hand but treating someone’s serious wound. He was being so careful. At that moment, Su Jin felt warmth in her heart. All the sadness in her past life seemed to have been erased by Xi Chenxiao.
Xi Chenxiao carefully applied the medicine on Su Jin until her entire palm was covered before he heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he suddenly realized a problem and looked at Xi Tian coldly as he asked,
“Did you bring any gauze?”
Xi Tian was shocked. What the hell? Was there really a need for gauze? It was just a little redness, was there a need to be so careful? When Su Jin heard Xi Chenxiao’s words, she blurted out,
“What’s the use of gauze?”
Xi Chenxiao looked at her hand that had just been smeared with medicine. He held her hand carefully, afraid to accidentally touch any part of it, as if he was protecting a priceless treasure. He replied solemnly,
“Of course, it’s for bandage. The medicine has just been applied. You shouldn’t exert any force. You shouldn’t move around. You shouldn’t……”
Su Jin was dumbfounded. What the hell? She was not a porcelain doll that would break when touched. There was no need to be so careful, right? If her hand was bandaged, people might think that she had been seriously injured.
Xi Tian was even more speechless. When he was practicing martial arts with the chairman and received genuine punches, the chairman had never felt so sorry for him. Now, with just a minor injury on Madam, he had to apply medicine and even bandage her hand.
In the end, at Su Jin’s refusal, Xi Chenxiao gave up the idea of bandaging Su Jin’s hand. Coincidentally, Su Beijiang also returned home with Su Jin’s mom. Otherwise, Xi Chenxiao would have had Su Jin’s hand wrapped up.
When Su Jin saw her mother, she almost cried. She immediately got up from the sofa and rushed over to hug her mother, like she was afraid that her mother would disappear again. She called out softly,
“Mom.”
When Su Jin’s mother saw the tears welling up in Su Jin’s eyes, her instinct was to hug her back. But she ended up pushing Su Jin away and hiding behind Su Beijiang, terrified.
“Who are you? Don’t touch me, you’re a bad person!”
Su Jin almost fell to the ground when she was suddenly pushed by her mother. Xi Chenxiao went over quickly to catch her, afraid that she would fall to the ground. He looked at Su Jin with a pained expression and said plainly,
“Be careful.”
Su Jin’s mother hid behind Su Beijiang. A strange light flashed in her eyes as she tightly clutched Su Beijiang’s clothes. Her entire body was trembling as she looked at Su Jin and asked Su Beijiang,
“Grand Lord, who is this woman? Is she a bad person? I don’t want to be with her. Send me back to my castle!”
Su Jin’s heart ached even more when she heard her mother’s words. Her eyes were filled with tears. It was all because of Su Beijiang and that mother and daughter that her mother had become like this. She didn’t even recognize her now. She looked at her mother and said with choked voice,
“Mom, I’m your beloved daughter, Su Jin. I’m not a bad person.”
Su Jin pushed Xi Chenxiao away as she said this. She wanted to go over and hold her mother’s hand, but her mother immediately dodged and grabbed Su Beijiang’s clothes in fear. Her entire being was filled with terror as she shouted,
“Grand Lord, Grand Lord, the bad person wants to kill me. You must protect me!”
