Chapter 5 Injustice
Chapter 5 Injustice
"Hello, are you Ms. Qiuping's family?"
"Correct."
"Ms. Qiuping is currently in the Third City Hospital, is it convenient to come over?"
"What's wrong with my mother?" Mu Chi's tone was a little anxious, he grabbed the car keys from the desk and walked out.
"She fell down and was brought here by a young man. Everything is normal now. In view of her special situation, we still have to do a full body check for her. Please come here as soon as possible to sign and pay the fee."
"Okay, I'll be there soon!"
Mu Chi almost ran down the stairs, then ran all the way to the parking lot, got in the car and went straight to the Third Hospital.
His hands clenched the steering wheel, sweat protruding from his forehead.
If I had known earlier, I would have hired a babysitter temporarily!
He didn't dare to think, if someone took her to the hospital after falling down this time, what about next time?
She is a blind person, and she is not familiar with the urban environment or even the community environment.
"Good boy, my son is coming, you go back first! Thank you for today." A gentle woman on the hospital bed spoke softly.
"It's okay, Auntie, I'll leave when your son comes."
Jing Yu pressed his brows together.He originally went to Man Tingfang today to see how the house was being tidied up, but the progress was slower than he imagined.He thought he would be able to move in just by cleaning up, but he didn't expect that because he hadn't lived in it for eight years, the wall coverings were even peeling off, and the wooden floor was also swollen from the leaking water upstairs.
He kicked stones while walking on the road in the community, feeling very anxious.Suddenly there was a yelling sound, and he followed the sound to see a lady lying on the lawn, rubbing her calf with both hands.
At first he thought he had met Pengci, but when he took a closer look, his eyes were beautiful, but there was no expression at all—he was a blind man.
He took the person directly to the hospital.
"You're such a good man. From your voice, you're about the same age as my son."
"Ah."
"Actually, I have nothing to do. Now I have to call my son, which will delay his work again."
"A son should take care of his mother."
Jingyu thought of his mother, fearing that he would never see anyone if he wanted to, he smiled wryly in his heart, and couldn't help being a little envious of the mother and son.
"Where does the young man work? Do you have a date?" Qiuping was enthusiastic and acquainted, "You are so kind-hearted, and you don't know any girl who is worthy of you? What kind of girl do you like? Auntie will introduce you."
"Auntie, I like men." Jing Yu frowned and told the truth.He thought that after he said that, this aunt would definitely not ask him about personal matters again.
He just wanted to do a good deed, and he didn't want to be in bed or chat with him.
Qiuping opened her mouth, as if she didn't expect the young man to be so straightforward, but she quickly realized, "It doesn't matter if you like men, Auntie is very open-minded."
As if she was afraid that young people would think too much, she added, "My son also likes men. If you are interested, I will introduce him to you when he comes over."
"..." Jing Yu suddenly wanted to run away with oil on his feet.
This is what Mu Chi saw when he walked into the ward. His mother was sitting on the bed, holding Xu Jingyu's hand and chattering.
"To tell you the truth, my son is excellent. He is a top student who graduated with a Ph.D. He was rated as an associate professor last year. He is young and promising. Can see."
"He's just too cold and doesn't like to talk to people. I've always been worried..."
"Don't look at me as blind. I can take care of myself completely. If you are together, I will never drag you down!"
"In my dreams, I want to find a companion for him, my son, it's too hard! Since his father left——"
"Mom." Mu Chi didn't let her continue, he walked into the ward quickly.
Jing Yu's back froze, and he slowly turned his head with a look of disbelief.
Mu Chi glanced at him, but didn't speak.
"Achi, why are you so fast? Are you speeding?" Qiuping said in a rather reproachful tone.
"No." Mu Chi paused, "Are you okay, I'll call the doctor and take you for an examination."
"You don't need to check, just break the skin." Qiuping waved his hand, "You young people are making a fuss."
Jing Yu looked at them with incomprehensible emotions in his eyes.
Qiuping couldn't see, so he couldn't understand how embarrassing the atmosphere in the ward was, so he still said to himself, "Ah Chi, this young man brought me to the hospital, you should thank him very much, please treat him to a meal .”
Mu Chi didn't say a word, he took two steps forward and gently picked up his mother, "Let's go, let's go for a checkup first."
"You child, why are you so indifferent..."
Mu Chi carried her mother out of the ward and went to the doctor to take an X-ray.
"The test results will be out in an hour. If you are not in a hurry, you can go to the ward and wait for a while."
"Okay, thank you doctor."
Mu Chi supported Qiu Ping and walked back slowly.
"Achi, someone helped your mother just now, why didn't you even say hello?"
"Well, say hello later."
"What's the matter! He must have already left." Qiuping sighed, and his tone was a bit blamed, "What's the matter with you? Why don't you even understand basic manners?"
"..."
When the two returned to the ward, Xu Jingyu was still there.
Mu Chi frowned, "Are you still leaving?"
He was irritable for no reason, perhaps because he was uncomfortable seeing the culprit's son standing with his family.
Especially when this guy just helped his own mom.
"Who? Who are you talking to, Mu Chi?"
"Twilight..."
Qiuping heard a voice, "The young man is still there, hey, do you know my son's name is Mu Chi? Do you know each other?"
If Qiuping had good eyesight, her eyes would definitely flash a look of surprise, because Mu Chi's mood rarely fluctuates.
Moreover, if Qiuping had good eyesight, she would definitely recognize that the young man in front of her was somewhat similar to Xu Tianyang, who drove her husband to death.
"Hmm...not familiar." Mu Chi's tone was light.
"That can't be so impolite," Qiuping scolded, "Since you know each other, let's talk about the old days. Ah Chi, you should be warmer to people."
"Oh, I see."
Mu Chi helped her mother onto the bed, took a look at Jing Yu, and walked out the door.
He didn't want his mother to hear any inexplicable words.
The two walked side by side to the backyard of the hospital.
"Mu Chi, I didn't know she was your mother."
"Huh? If you know it, you can't save it?"
"No, how could it be?" Jing Yu hesitated for a few seconds and asked the question in his heart, "Your mother's eyes..."
"Injured at work, no money, delayed." Mu Chi became even more irritable.
Jing Yu had a bad guess, "Just now your mother said that she could still see before you were in high school—"
"What exactly are you trying to say?" Mu Chi's eyes suddenly turned sharp, and his tone was a little aggressive.
Jingyu spoke with difficulty, "Is it... related to my father?"
"Heh!" Mu Chi laughed mockingly, "You guessed it and asked me what I did."
"sorry."
"Who are you apologizing for? Xu Tianyang?" Mu Chi's tone was cold, "There's no need for that. For a person like him, death is not a pity."
Jing Yu's face paled instantly.
He only knew that his father had forced Mu Chi's father to death because of financial fraud, and he also knew that his father had forced Mu Chi to go to the club to drink with him to pay off the debt.But he just found out that his father also indirectly caused his mother to have no money for medical treatment, and she has been permanently blind since then.
It was hard for him to imagine how the young Mu Chi spent such dark years.
He thought again of the gentle lady holding his hand and praising him for his kindness, but he couldn't help feeling guilty.
What face does he have standing here?
Mu Chi was also in a daze, closed his eyes, what did he say?
I really... can't control myself.
"When are you free?" Mu Chi looked at him, no emotion could be seen in his dark eyes.
"Why?" Jing Yu's tone was sour.
"Please eat."Mu Chi's voice was still stiff, "You helped my mother, I should thank you."
"No...you're welcome."
"I don't like to owe others...especially you." Mu Chi opened the calendar on her phone and frowned, "It's better to hit the sun than to choose a date. Let's do it tonight. Is it convenient for Mr. Xu?"
"Just a little effort—"
"Okay, I think we'd better avoid any involvement." Mu Chi interrupted him directly.
"...Okay." Jing Yu asked him, "Where can I find you?"
"I finish class at six o'clock in the afternoon. I will wait for you at your company. I will arrive at about seven o'clock."
"I'll go find you. Is it convenient to wait at the gate of your college?"
As soon as the examination results came out, Mu Chi took her mother away without even looking at Jing Yu again.
"Achi, you'd better send me back to City N. I'm not familiar with this place, and it always delays your work. Sister Zhang will take care of me when I go home."
Sister Zhang is the nurse and nanny that Muchi hired for her mother. This time Qiuping came to Muchi's side and did not bring Sister Zhang.
"There is no delay in work. I will find an aunt to take care of you."
"Don't look for it, let Sister Zhang know about it, she should think about it." Qiuping said, "You should send me back, I didn't want to stay too long at first. I am familiar with my hometown, and I can go out for a while. Let's go, take a walk."
"...Well then, I will go on a business trip to City N in a few days and I will bring you with me."
"Okay." Qiuping hesitated, "That young man just now..."
"Well, a college classmate."
"You guys don't have a good relationship? I think this guy is okay...and he said he likes men too. Do you want to get in touch with him again? Maybe there is some misunderstanding?"
Mu Chi paused while holding the steering wheel, "No need, the relationship is really bad, it's too awkward to get along with."
"Hey, I'm worried that you're always alone!"
