Chapter 700 — The Obedient Qiu Lingshan
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
"How am I provoking him?" Shen Yushu's impression of Qiu Lingshan was quite poor. "Everything I said is true. My brother says so too—losing a kidney affects your health."
Chen Yuxuan, at that moment, lowered his head with a bitter smile. On one side was his own sister, on the other Qiu Lingshan—whom should he help? Whom could he help? How could he help?
Qiu Lingshan shot Chen Yuxuan a glare. "What are you standing there for? Go and call the doctor!"
"I'm going right now..." Chen Yuxuan nodded hurriedly and turned to find a doctor.
Shen Yushu nearly exploded with rage. What was wrong with her own brother? In front of Qiu Lingshan he was like a mouse before a cat, treading on eggshells—how could he be such a spineless coward? She was his own flesh and blood! That vixen had just insulted her, and he had pretended not to hear, even going off to fetch a doctor for Qiu Lingshan?
"Brother, you're not allowed to go!" Shen Yushu planted herself in front of Chen Yuxuan and glared at him furiously. "She insulted your sister! How can you just let her bully me?"
"Xiaoshu..." Chen Yuxuan was caught in a bind. It wasn't really bullying, was it? Qiu Lingshan had merely been a little sharp in her words.
"Just as I thought—undependable..." Seeing Chen Yuxuan's torn expression, Shen Yushu was deeply disappointed. In her heart she thought, Arrow Brand Brother is the good one; no matter when, he always helps me and stands on my side! Yes, yes—for the rest of my life, I'll be good to Arrow Brand Brother and no one else! Not even my own brother!
Wei Zhao was rather surprised by Chen Yuxuan's behavior, though from Shen Yushu's reaction he could more or less guess what was going on. Chen Yuxuan was one of Qiu Lingshan's suitors? Little Miss Song actually had admirers?
"Xiaoshu, let me go call the doctor first..." Chen Yuxuan saw the disappointment in his sister's eyes, but he had no choice. For one thing, Qiu Lingshan had told him to fetch the doctor; for another, An Liwen really had passed out—what if something happened to him?
"No!" Shen Yushu refused to agree. This was no longer about simply calling a doctor; it had escalated into a contest with Qiu Lingshan! Shen Yushu truly could not understand why her brother was so stubbornly fixated on Qiu Lingshan.
Her brother was outstanding, wasn't he? Sure, he fell a bit short of Arrow Brand Brother, but he was still the eldest grandson of the Chen family—what kind of girl couldn't he find?
Shen Yushu and Qiu Lingshan had been at odds since childhood, pretending to get along on the surface while secretly disliking each other. That was precisely why Shen Yushu had it in for Qiu Lingshan.
Gu Mengyao could hardly stand by any longer, but she knew Xiaoshu's temperament. Silly and carefree as Xiaoshu seemed all day long, once she set her mind on something, no one could hold her back—and that was exactly why, throughout Gu Mengyao's coma, Xiaoshu had stayed by her side without ever leaving.
Gu Mengyao was deeply moved. Though Shen Yushu's remarks and suggestions sometimes embarrassed her—little wife this, threesome that—Gu Mengyao knew that Shen Yushu truly did not want to be parted from her, and wanted the two of them to be together for a lifetime.
Wei Zhao hadn't expected Shen Yushu and Qiu Lingshan to lock horns like this, though Chen Yuxuan really was a bit weak-kneed, and Wei Zhao found it hard to watch. He said lightly, "No need to go. An Liwen won't die just yet."
Chen Yuxuan opened his mouth, but at this point could only bite the bullet and say, "All right!"
Wei Zhao was the person Chen Yuxuan admired most in his life. It was because of Wei Zhao that he had changed into who he was now; otherwise he would still be a spoiled rich kid, running around with An Liwen every day.
Qiu Lingshan glanced at Chen Yuxuan in some surprise. Wei Zhao's words actually carried such weight? Chen Yuxuan had agreed just like that?
