Chapter 247 Cute Little Brother, Settling the Scores
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
On the hospital bed, Little Brother Jiang had already woken up at some point, his big round eyes blinking as he smiled softly and affectionately at Jiang Fuyue.
“Sis, did you come back just to see me?”
Han Yunru pushed Jiang Da to sit on a chair and made room for her daughter.
Jiang Fuyue sat down by the bedside and reached out to ruffle the little guy’s hair. “Yeah, if you didn’t go to the capital, I can only come back to see you.”
A shy blush quickly spread across Little Brother Jiang’s pale cheeks. He felt a bit guilty but also happy. “I’m sorry I didn’t go, and I wasted the plane ticket… But now that I see you, I’m really happy!”
“Yeah, you should always be this happy.”
“As long as you’re here, sis, I’ll always be happy.”
Jiang Fuyue’s eyes softened.
Little Brother Jiang rubbed her hand like a just-awakened little lazy cat. “Sis, you were so amazing just now. I want to be as amazing as you in the future, to scare away those bad guys.”
“Did you see it?” Jiang Fuyue raised an eyebrow.
“No, I heard it. Even though my eyes were closed, I knew they were bullying mom and dad. I really wanted to wake up, but I was so tired and had no strength…”
“And now? Feeling better?”
“Yeah, I’m awake now, and my stomach doesn’t hurt anymore.”
“That’s good.”
Jiang Fuyue made to get up.
Suddenly, a small hand grabbed her sleeve, with a light grip that could easily be shaken off.
But she didn’t. She gently asked, “What’s wrong?”
Little Brother Jiang was a bit nervous. “Sis, where are you going?”
“To get you some water to drink.”
“I’m not thirsty.” He shook his head.
Jiang Fuyue sat back down, and Little Brother Jiang still held onto her, soft and clingy like a glutinous rice ball. “Sis, I have a gift for you.” His little face became serious.
“What gift?”
“Mom, can you give me your jacket?”
Han Yunru handed it to him, reminding, “Be careful of the needles on your hand.”
“I know.” Little Brother Jiang found his wallet, reached inside, and quickly pulled out a small square box.
It was a pair of wireless earphones.
Branded ones, priced around two thousand, according to Little Brother Jiang’s five hundred yuan pocket money per month, it would take him almost four months to save up for it, but he had only started livestreaming for a little over two months.
In other words, he had started saving money even before getting into livestreaming.
And this pair of earphones had used up all his savings.
Jiang Fuyue’s mood suddenly became complicated.
“Sis, you can use it to listen to news, papers, speeches, and stuff in the future, without worrying about tangled wires.” His eyes lit up, somewhat uncertain, “Do you… like it?”
“Thank you, I really like it.” Jiang Fuyue pinched his chubby cheek, “Actually, you don’t need to buy something so expensive. There are cheaper ones online that work just as well.”
Little Brother Jiang, as tightfisted as he was, she knew better than anyone. Now that he had emptied his pocket money, what if the little guy felt regretful?
But Little Brother Jiang shook his head firmly, “Not expensive at all, not at all!”
Jiang Fuyue: ? Was this still the same stingy little brother?
Next second —
“For my gift to sis, of course, it has to be the best! When I have more money in the future, I’ll buy you even more expensive ones!”
Han Yunru chuckled at his words, “Such big words from such a little guy.”
Little Brother Jiang put on a serious face, “Mom, I’ll definitely make a lot of money in the future!”
“What about us, then? You’re only buying for your sister and not for me and your dad?”
Little Brother Jiang hesitated for a moment, furrowing his little brows tightly, then he burrowed under the covers, only showing his head and said in a small voice, “I’ll buy for sister first, and then for you guys…”
Han Yunru: ?
Jiang Da: ?
Was this their own son?
After waking up for a while, Little Brother Jiang started to feel sleepy again.
After Jiang Fuyue waited for him to fall asleep again, she gently released his hand, tucked him in, and adjusted the covers.
Little Brother Jiang mumbled a couple of times. With careful listening, it was not hard to distinguish what he was saying: “Sis…”
Jiang Fuyue got up from the bedside. “Dad, Mom, I have something to take care of. The hospital will arrange for a transfer later. I’ll leave two people behind to take care of you. If you need anything, just call me.”
With that, two men in black entered, handing over the phones of Han Yunru and Jiang Da.
The couple exchanged glances, reached out to take the phones, their expressions quite complicated.
Before leaving, they looked at Jiang Fuyue, hesitated several times, but in the end, they didn’t say anything, just said —
“Take care.”
“Okay.”
Jiang Fuyue left the hospital gate, and Hu Ben was already waiting in the car.
“Sister Yue.”
“How’s it going with Little Six?”
“Lying in wait, the hospital director indeed showed up. As soon as he entered, our people caught him. Right now, they’re preparing to take him to Uncle Liu’s place.”
“No need, let Little Six take him directly to the Yimi Talent Agency. Also, don’t forget about Zhang Kehua. Since we’re settling scores, we might as well settle everything.”
Hu Ben’s expression slightly changed, immediately calling Little Six, “…Yes, go directly to the talent agency.”
Then he contacted Uncle Liu again, “…Take Zhang Kehua along.”
Hu Ben turned to Jiang Fuyue, “What about those punks in floral shirts? Should we take them along too?”
“No need, arrange to send them directly to the police station.”
“Understood.”
With everything arranged, the climax was about to begin.
Jiang Fuyue said, “Let’s go, let’s meet Chief Yang at Yimi Talent Agency.”
Hu Ben started the engine, the black Buick darting off like a drawn sword, leaving dust in its wake…
