Chapter 41

She felt her foot throbbing in pain during class, and when she touched it, it felt a little more swollen. From the sophomore class to the school entrance, she had to cross the entire playground, just by jumping on one leg, she would have to jump for ten to twenty minutes, and when she jumped to the entrance, the cauliflower would be cold, and her leg would be ruined.

If it was Liang Zihao, she could still explain that it was her brother, but if it was Ling Yuan, she would not be able to explain.

Just as she finished speaking, she felt Ling Yuan’s air pressure suddenly lowered, and then heard his lowered voice, “You like him carrying you?”

The hand holding his knee clenches into a fist, veins bulging, the tip of his tongue pressing against his back teeth, as if waiting for Ji Yu to pronounce judgment.

Ji Yu didn’t notice, only telling the truth, “It’s not that I like it, but mainly because Zi Hao is my brother.”

It’s not like the two of them are related.

Ling Yuan just lifted his breath, poking it in a second, loosening his fists, his palms glutinous and wet, exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, hooking up the corners of his mouth, “He’s not a pro either, half-brother and half-sister, and I’m different?”

“Uh~”

To put it like that doesn’t seem to be a problem.

Ji Yu doesn’t squirm anymore and climbs onto Ling Yuan’s back, “Then it’s hard on you, senior.”

“You’re welcome.”

On the way, Ling Yuan asks, “Did that Zhao guy push you today?”

Ji Yu shook her head, thinking that she was behind him and he couldn’t see her, she added, “She didn’t push me, she said she had something to look for me, and then after less than a couple of words, she fell backwards, I pulled her back, and then I didn’t stand still and fell.”

Ling Yuan still felt that the surname Zhao was suspicious and looked back at her, “Are you sure she didn’t push you? If so, don’t be afraid to tell me.”

The girl was lying on his back, her breath was right next to his ear, gently, and the moist hot air was on his neck, itchy, like a kitten’s fur was teasing him.

“OK.” Ji Yu thought for a moment and added, “But, I think she might have wanted to shit on me, before she collapsed, she yelled that I pushed her, I didn’t move her at all, what a green tea whore ah that schoolteacher.”

“That means she does have a problem, don’t be afraid, I’ll take care of it.”

“Well, I’m not scared, I can handle it too.”

Ji Yu thought for a moment and added, “Thank you, Senior Ling, more like my brother than my brother.”

Ling Yuan mentally says, “I don’t want to be your brother, I want to be your love brother.

Ling Yuan carries Ji Yu to the Liang family’s car and leaves, he drives his own motorcycle to and from school.

Before Chi Yu gets on the car, she hears Ling Yuan call out to her, “Wait for me tomorrow to go back to school together.”

Ji Yu glances at Liang Zihao and sees him nodding, thinking that they must have spoken before, and answers yes.

Back home, as soon as she entered the door, Ji Yu saw a tall middle-aged man sitting on the sofa, his appearance was very similar to Liang Zihao, only it was an older version, she guessed his identity.

Just as she was thinking, she heard Liang Zihao call out, “Dad.”

Liang Zhongwen looked up and answered.

Ji Yu single hopped forward and introduced herself, “Hello Uncle Liang, I’m Ji Yu.”

Bai Yang had discussed with Liang Zhongwen about Ji Yu coming to live here, and answered hello when she met him, sizing her up for a few moments, and asked amiably, “What happened to your foot?”

“Twisted, not serious, thank you Uncle Liang for caring.”

“That’s good. Come and stay at home at ease, treat it like your own home, don’t be polite, got it?”

Ji Yu nodded, “I know, thank you Uncle Liang.”

Seeing Bai Yang come out of the kitchen, Liang Zhongwen stood up and turned his head to order, “Let’s start dinner then, don’t starve the children.”

Bai Yang turned back to Aunt Chen and said, “Aunt Chen, serve the food.”

“Hey.”

Liang Zixuan was in a good mood due to her father’s return, a moment later she asked him to clip this dish, a moment later she pointed at that dish, and her mouth blared, as if she was the only one in the world who had a father.

Ji Yu and Liang Zi Hao were silent, eating with their heads down, occasionally returning a sentence or two when Liang Zhongwen asked.

Only when Liang Zhongwen and Bai Yang both put down their chopsticks did Ji Yu and Liang Zihao put down their chopsticks and then went upstairs.

The reason was the same, to go upstairs and do their homework.

Seeing Ji Yu jumping up the stairs, Bai Yang then saw that Ji Yu’s foot was twisted and asked with concern, asking Liang Zi Hao to carry her upstairs.

Chi Yu is willing to let Ling Yuan carry her, that’s broken, but is embarrassed to let Liang Zi Hao carry her again, as Ling Yuan said, they are actually different fathers and mothers, the relationship is not that close.

Ji Yu insisted on jumping up the stairs by himself holding onto the stairs, Bai Yang put down his chopsticks and took the medicinal oil and followed.

After they went upstairs, Liang Zixuan started complaining, “Dad, look, once my sister came back, mom ignored me, so biased that there’s no limit.”

Liang Zhongwen coaxed her, “Sister twisted her foot, of course you have to take care of her more, think about it, when you were sick before, wasn’t mom always by your side to take care of you?”

Liang Zixuan thought about it and let out an “Oh”, “Then dad, she won’t stay in our house for a long time, right? I don’t like having outsiders living here, I just want us to live together as a family of four.”

Liang Zhongwen frowned, wanting to say something, but thinking that she was only ten years old, he changed his tone, “That’s your sister, you have to be polite. It doesn’t matter how long she lives here, but I don’t think it’s too long, when my sister goes to college it’s going to be a residential program.”

“Oh,” Liang Zixuan was a bit lost, “It’s going to be two years? That’s a long time~”

Liang Zhongwen smiled and pinched her nose, “Not long, two years will soon pass, by then, our Xuanxuan will also be in middle school.”

Liang Zixuan was still not happy until Liang Zhongwen said he would take her out to play on the National Day before she smiled.

Bai Yang knocked on the door of Ji Yu’s room with medicinal oil, “Little Yu, mom is giving you medicine.”

“Come in.”

Bai Yang walked into the room and saw her spreading out a test paper on the table.

Hearing the footsteps, Ji Yu casually said, “You sit down for a while, wait for me to finish calculating this question.”

“Hey.”

Bai Yang looked at her daughter, who was lying on the table, thinking that she had been here for half a month, because of her own negligence and mistrust, the mother-daughter bond that was originally not much left was in pieces.

In the two days when she first arrived, her daughter would still say a few more words to her, but now she only said hello, and would not talk to her about anything she encountered at school or outside.

She wanted to fix the relationship between them, but her daughter was very resistant.

Two minutes later, Ji Yu put down her pen and turned Bai Yang’s side, “Mom, give me the medicinal oil, I can do it myself.”

Bai Yang shook her head, unscrewed the cap, poured some medicinal oil and rubbed it hot in her palm, “How can you have the strength to do it yourself? I’ll do it.”

Ji Yu pulled up his pants leg, his ankle red and swollen.

“Hiss…” Bai Yang draws in a breath of cold air, “How did you get it? So serious.”

It hurt to look at it.

“In gym class, accidentally fell.”

Ji Yu didn’t intend to tell her the truth, to save trouble, and thought Liang Zihao wouldn’t talk too much.

“What kind of sport did you fall so hard? Be careful in the future, okay? Don’t clash with your classmates, don’t fight.”

Ji Yu glanced at her and didn’t say anything else with a “hmm” sound.

It was wise not to say why just now.

She thought.
