Chapter 1155 - 1169: Was It Your Idea?
Mu Xingfeng saw Huang Xiaoyu running away from a distance but didn’t pay attention. He reached out and pushed open the door of the hospital room.An Ran seemed to have just woken up, sitting on the hospital bed. Liu Hu handed her a glass of water, but after taking just one sip, she started coughing heavily.
Mu Xingfeng quickly stepped forward, took the glass from her hand, and gently patted her back, "Are you thirsty? You can’t drink water just yet. Wait a bit longer; you’ll have another chest CT scan later, and then we can see if you can have some water."
Liu Hu felt a bit guilty as he overheard Mu Xingfeng saying An Ran shouldn’t be drinking water, "I’m sorry, Boss. Sister-in-law said she was thirsty, and I didn’t ask the nurse, just gave her a glass of water."
"No worries," Mu Xingfeng handed the glass back to Liu Hu and lifted the pillow behind An Ran to make her sit more comfortably.
"You really treat me like a patient," An Ran chuckled softly, looking up to see Captain Li and Lifang at the door of the hospital room. Not understanding why they were there, she looked back at Mu Xingfeng.
Sun Lufang clearly recognized An Ran too. She opened her mouth but couldn’t say a word, turning her head to look at Huang Tao on the other hospital bed.
Seeing Huang Tao at that moment, Sun Lufang seemed to see Lele’s figure again, and her eyes couldn’t help but redden.
Sister-in-law Qu knew Lele was gone as well, and seeing Sun Lufang made her feel uncomfortable too. She wondered why Sun Lufang was in the hospital room now. Shouldn’t she be handling Lele’s affairs?
"Aunt Sun, it’s my fault. I didn’t take care of my brother well. Auntie, you can hit me."
Huang Tao was the first to speak when Sun Lufang and Li Dajun entered the hospital room, tears streaming down.
His father taught him from a young age how to be a strong man. Li Lele was younger and always called him brother from behind. Now that something has happened to Li Lele, Huang Tao felt he hadn’t taken good care of his brother.
Sun Lufang blinked, trying her best not to let the tears fall. She walked to the hospital bed and said to Huang Tao on the bed, "Taotao, tell Aunt Sun, how did you end up in the water? Did someone push you? Lele has always been obedient. Why would he play by the river? Was it your idea?"
Qu Jing and An Ran frowned upon hearing Sun Lufang’s words. Li Dajun also tugged at his wife, speaking to stop her, "Lifang, what are you saying?"
Sun Lufang shook her shoulder, freed herself from Li Dajun, and continued speaking to Huang Tao, "Taotao, don’t worry, just tell Aunt Sun. Now that things have come to this, Aunt Sun won’t blame you."
"Captain Li’s wife, I can’t understand what you’re saying. The kids went out to play together, and this happened. Everyone is concerned. What do you mean by questioning my Taotao like this?" Qu Jing was unhappy hearing Sun Lufang slowly coaxing the boy. Perhaps the child didn’t understand, but she surely did. Sun Lufang’s words insinuated that Li Lele’s drowning was Huang Tao’s responsibility.
Huang Tao was kind-hearted from a young age, constantly feeling guilty after Li Lele’s incident. For Li Lele, he even argued with his aunt earlier. Sun Lufang coaxing him this way worried Qu Jing that Huang Tao might take the blame upon himself.
Having lived in the same courtyard for so long, she knew Sun Lufang’s character. Some time ago, she had even fabricated stories about Captain Mu’s family and his guards. If Taotao really got caught in her words, and Sun Lufang wouldn’t let this go, causing trouble with the Guard Team, Huang Tao’s life would be ruined.
