Chapter 441: Chapter 441
Ye Qian also didn’t leave, "Brother-in-law, in your current condition, the doctor said you should stay in the hospital for a few days of observation. My sister isn’t here, and I’m on vacation these days. I’ll take care of you at night, and during the day, father and mother will look after you. They’re older, and you wouldn’t want them to work hard at night, right?"
"It’s just a minor injury, I can take care of myself, no need for you to come," Shen Bin said politely, not daring to say out loud that it’s not appropriate for a sister-in-law to take care of her brother-in-law.
But before he could say more, the three members of the Shen family got the news and rushed to the hospital room. Seeing them, Ye Zhenfen got angry and pulled her husband away. Mrs. Shen fussed over her son for a few sentences before subtly asking about Shen Chun’s whereabouts.
"Didn’t your sister come back with you?"
"Binzi, you must look after your sister," Shen’s father said earnestly from the side.
Ye Qian didn’t leave, she just sat there peeling an apple, her ears perked up listening to them talk.
Shen Bin said with a gloomy face, "I came back this time just to bring her back."
"Then where is she?" Mrs. Shen asked worriedly about her daughter.
"She ran away as soon as she got off the bus. I went after her and then got stabbed," Shen Bin said straightforwardly.
The three members of the Shen family fell silent.
The silent Gao Xique sneered, "She loves to create a fuss. She doesn’t go to work properly and insists on leaving, and now she’s gotten my cousin into this state. She probably doesn’t have the face to come back either, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mrs. Shen scolded her niece, then reluctantly said, "Binzi, your sister probably had something urgent, it’s not what you think. Don’t be angry with her."
"I’m not angry," Shen Bin truly didn’t want to care anymore, "I’ve brought her back, if she doesn’t want to come see you, I can’t help it. She knows where you work, if she wants to come back, she’ll find you at the hospital."
"Binzi, we’re not familiar with this place. If you don’t help us find her, where can we find your sister?" Mrs. Shen started crying again.
Shen’s father said nothing, but his eyes were shifty, likely thinking of some idea. Gao Xique watched the scene with a mocking face. When the Li family couple came in, Mrs. Shen dared not cry anymore. She wiped her tears and stood up, as if she was the one being wronged.
Ye Zhenfen saw Mrs. Shen crying and thought it was because of her son’s injury, not thinking much of it. "Son, your dad called your company and told them there was a family emergency, so that you could return later. He didn’t tell them the truth, worrying that Ye Ling would be anxious over there."
Shen Bin nodded, "This injury is nothing much. I’ll stay for observation today, and leave the hospital tomorrow. A few days on the train will help me recover."
Though he agreed, he still seemed eager to head back.
Ye Zhenfen disagreed, "No, you need to rest properly at home and heal before going back. A few days won’t make a difference. Besides, the person hasn’t been caught yet, and you’ll need to give a statement."
"Listen to your mom," Li Houguo also spoke up. Although he had a stern face, he ultimately couldn’t bear to part with his son.
Shen Bin knew it was useless to speak further, so he didn’t. Then Shen’s father smiled and said, "We’ll head back first, and come back in the evening. You take care during the day, and we’ll come at night, so it’s not too tiring for anyone."
"No need. I’ll have my assistant come at night," Ye Zhenfen responded immediately.
Shen’s father smiled, "Alright, then we’ll come during the day tomorrow."
When the three from the Shen family left the room, Ye Zhenfen looked at Ye Qian, who had finished peeling the apples, "Ye Qian, thank you for your hard work today. You should head back. Now that you’re married, you can’t stay out, considering your in-laws and all. I’ll visit your house someday to thank you." Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novｅlfire.net
"Auntie, we’re family, there’s no need to be so formal. I’ll go now, and you can chat with my brother-in-law," Ye Qian placed the apples down, understanding the situation, and left.
Ye Zhenfen smiled and saw her off. When there were no outsiders left in the hospital room, she turned to her son with a stern face, "I heard you came back to bring Shen Chun?"
It was clear that she held a grudge against Shen Chun.
Li Houguo didn’t intervene, just found a chair to sit down and started reading a newspaper.
Ye Zhenfen, seeing her son not responding, said, "Shen Bin, you owe nothing to the Shen family. How long are you going to keep repaying them? You’re not alone now; there’s Ye Ling too. Thank goodness it wasn’t a big issue this time, but imagine if something happened, what would your dad and I do? White-haired parents having to bury their child? What about Ye Ling? Are you going to hurt all three of us for Shen Chun, and doom Ye Ling for a lifetime?"
"If you don’t say anything, that’s fine, but remember, this is the last time. If anything happens again, I won’t hold back with the Shen family. You can test me if you don’t believe it," Mrs. Shen said fiercely, then sat by the bedside, silently shedding tears.
Li Houguo put down the newspaper, glanced at his son, and then his wife, before looking back at Shen Bin, "Did you hear what your mom said? If something happens next time, I’ll intervene directly."
