Rong Xi hadn’t expected Rong Si to show up at this moment. She panicked.
Her plans were about to be disrupted.
After she had gone back last night, she had gotten someone to pick up something that would cause a kind of sickness, tuberculosis, to be precise.
Although Su Jiu would not die if she was infected with this, she would get incredibly sick. Furthermore, no one would be able to tell what was going on. It was perfect.
But if Rong Si was there, how could she carry out this plan?
Rong Xi had thought that her plan was flawless. If Su Jiu were to be infected with the tuberculosis virus, the doctor would only think that her condition had worsened.
They would never think that she, Rong Xi, had brought the virus. And after contracting tuberculosis, Su Jiu would take a few months to recover, or even a year or so.
During treatment, Su Jiu would have to spend every day receiving injections and taking medicine. Her mind and body would become rather fragile!
So…
Even if Rong Si was present here, Rong Xi had to find a way to spread the virus to Su Jiu.
Rong Xi’s mind raced as she nonchalantly smiled at Rong Si. “Big Brother Rong Si, I know that Sister Su Jiu is sick, so I came to see her. Don’t think too much about it.”
Rong Si looked at her coldly.
It wasn’t that he was overthinking things, but that he was suspicious to begin with.
It was one thing for Rong Xi to know that Little Jiu was sick, but why would she come to see Su Jiu out of the goodness of her heart?
He couldn’t help but be wary. No matter what, he wouldn’t let Rong Xi get close to Little Jiu.
Even if he was overthinking it.
Rong Si said coldly, “There’s no need for you to do that. Leave.”
Leave?
Is he driving me away again? Does he dislike me that much?
Rong Xi gritted her teeth and forced a smile. She said pleadingly, “Why are you chasing me away… My house is far from here. It takes a long time to come over. Even if I have to leave, can you let me take a look at Sister Su Jiu before leaving? Otherwise, wouldn’t I have come for nothing?”
“I said you don’t need to visit. Get out.” Rong Si’s voice was cold.
Auntie Zhang did not know the situation. She only felt that Rong Xi looked pure and harmless, soft and weak, like a good little girl.
She is only here to see the little girl. Why isn’t Rong Si welcoming her?
But she knew there had to be a reason. So she said to Rong Xi, too, “Alright, you’d better go then.”
Rong Xi had no choice but to bite the bullet. She looked at Rong Si and said, “Big Brother Rong Si, I’ve done some bad things before that made you misunderstand me a little. But… I already admitted my mistakes. I came especially to see Sister Su Jiu this time.”
Rong Xi’s eyes turned red as she spoke.
“Big Brother Rong Si, I… I really want to come and see Sister Su Jiu. I’m not lying to you. If you don’t give me a chance, I won’t be able to sleep at night…”
Tears welled up in Rong Xi’s eyes, and she looked extremely pitiful.
If an ordinary man saw this, they would probably feel sorry for her.
However, in Rong Si’s eyes, she was merely being a clown.
“No, I don’t think your insomnia has anything to do with us, does it?”
Auntie Zhang was dozens of years old and knew how to read people. At this moment, she could tell that Rong Xi was a real piece of work. She angrily said, “We didn’t let you in to see Little Jiu because she’s not awake yet. Don’t wake her up!”
Rong Xi gritted her teeth again.
The virus would not survive for long. It had to quickly enter the human body.
But how could she do that if they wouldn’t let her into the ward?
What on earth should I do? I can’t have come here for nothing, can I?
