Chapter 508: Chapter 508 Considering how crucial Jing Qiao was to her elder brother, Song Jining hadn't forgotten to add a word on her behalf, "Sister-in-law, then you persuade my brother to eat well and pay attention to nutrition. He's almost one hundred and ninety centimeters tall, but he's still a bit too skinny." Jing Qiao's face turned beet red from Song Boyuan's relentless interference, and she nodded with a voice as meek as a mosquito's, "I, I will." Xiao Caizi went to the restroom to wash her hands, then smilingly said to Jing Qiao and Song Boyuan, "I won't disturb you two for now. I've opened a Western restaurant and a private kitchen. When your injury is healed, you're welcto bring your sister-in-law over for a meal." Song Boyuan was noncommittal, merely glancing briefly at Song Jining with a cold tone, "I know what you're up to, but I'm not that good-tempered, so tell those people not to bother me." Song Jining sighed softly, "Alright, I got it." The "those people" Song Boyuan mentioned referred to relatives from the Song Family.
Before, not knowing any better and having offended Song Boyuan, they should brace themselves for a fierce retaliation from him.
Originally, they had thought that as a family, things shouldn't be that severe, but after being hit directly by Song Boyuan's car and brought to their senses, they all becsomewhat panicked.
It seemed that since Song Boyuan dared to hit them with his car, there probably wasn't much he wouldn't dare to do... As for being relatives and whether it was necessary to be so severe...
All that was nonsense-it all hung on Song Boyuan's mood.
And his mood about this matter... was obviously very bad.
So those relatives, having been hit by the car, suffering mild concussions and such, also checked into Song Jining's hospital.
Knowing that Song Jining and Song Boyuan's relationship was still okay, they wanted to have Song Jining put in a good word for them so they could meet with him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough Song Jining wasn't exactly gentle, it's always difficult to refuse when the elders make requests—it's hard to turn them down without losing face. Thus, he could only mention it to Song Boyuan.
Just mentioning it.
As it stood, it clearly was of no use.
Song Boyuan glanced at him coldly, "Don't even bring those nonsense talks in front ofin the future, I don't want to hear it. I invested in your hospital to let you save people and fulfill your dreams, to do what you like without having to look at anyone's face. Not for you to bringtroublemakers' nonsense and ruin my mood." Song Jining sighed softly with his head down, knowing his cousin was truly angry, and said, "Brother, I know I was wrong." He was, of course, aware that Song Boyuan was actually quite good to him as a cousin. After all, he was just a cousin.
For someone as emotionally distant as Song Boyuan, his half-blood brothers from different mothers could only be described as heartless and cruel.
"That's enough, go do your work," Song Boyuan said, then as if he remembered something, he added a reminder, "This hospital is a for-profit medical institution, charge for what needs to be charged. I don't want anyone to take advantage of being relatives to waste medical resources and not pay." Song Jining bit his lip, understanding what his brother meant, "I understand." Those relatives indeed occupied several VIP wards, when in fact they weren't really injured or sick-just trying to cling to Song Jining to beg Song Boyuan for a favor.
Frankly speaking, when it ctfor them to be discharged, they probably would not pay the medical bills. Song Jining had, of course, already prepared himself to let the staff know not to charge them.
But now that Song Boyuan had spoken, not charging them was out of the question.
Song Jining walked out of the ward with Xiao Caizi.
Looking somewhat distressed, Xiao Caizi lightly patted his shoulder, "Why so unhappy?" "What do you think," Song Jining sighed.
Xiao Caizi thought for a moment, "I think although your brother seems to have a bad temper, it's obvious that he's quite protective of you. I'd be envious if I were you, and yet you look so glum?" "Protecting is one thing, having a headache is another; they're not mutually exclusive," Song Jining said. After a moment's thought, he said to Xiao Caizi, "Forget it, I shouldn't drag this out. I'll go clear things up with those people now, so they stop occupying the sickroom. Do you want to cwith me, or would you rather wait in my office?" Xiao Caizi shrugged lightly, "Either is fine with me." "Forget it, I don't want you to be troubled. You wait in my office," said Song Jining.
He knew what kind of people that group was, daring to be so presumptuous even in front of his cousin; naturally, they wouldn't be any more respectful in Song Jining's presence. Better to spare Xiao Caizi from listening to their unpleasant remarks.
Xiao Caizi didn't seem too bothered, as if she were already used to it.
Indeed, when it cto the messy affairs within the family, the Xiao Family's situation was no better than the Song Family's.
Whether she was used to it or numb to it, in the end, she was pretty thick-skinned.
Nevertheless, Xiao Caizi certainly didn't insist on going with Song Jining after hearing him, and nodded, "Okay, then I'll wait for you in your office." "Mm, if you're hungry, just go to the cafeteria and grab something to eat." "Got it." Having said this, Song Jining headed toward the sickroom that the relatives had taken over.
Xiao Caizi thought about it and made her way to Song Jining's office.
In the sickroom, Jing Qiao's face still looked uneasy, "You-you let go offirst." Song Boyuan's hand remained on her waist, he sighed lightly.
It sounded rather regretful as he murmured, "If I knew, I wouldn't have rushed them away so quickly." That way, Jing Qiao would probably have had to keep whispering to him because they were there. Although it was a murmur, it reached Jing Qiao's ears loud and clear.
Her ears were still red, and she bit her lip, "Song Boyuan!" Her voice carried a hint of irritation.
Song Boyuan heard her, the corners of his mouth lifting into a very subtle smile, his usually icy gaze softened a bit.
His hand reluctantly let go of Jing Qiao's waist.
He didn't mind his own weight loss, but Jing Qiao seemed to have finally tg put on a little weight, a realization Er that pleased Song Boyuan. He still remembered rushing to the Psychiatric Hospital after Jing Qiao had an incident there, seeing her emaciated appearance.
It was like a knife twisting in his heart.
Su Lu saw that Song Jining and Xiao Caizi had already left, so she entered the sickroom, holding a cup of fruit tea, Xiao Song, Xiao Qiao's fruit tea is really delicious, do you want some? I'll share it with you?" "I want a big cup," said Song Boyuan.
"Alright, a big cup," Su Lu generously poured him a large cup.
Song Boyuan asked her, “What were you doing outside all this time?"
Su Lu shrugged, "You might not know, but your sister-in-law-used to be engaged to Bo Jingshen for a while. I just felt awkward..." Song Boyuan took a big gulp, "That's not awkward. It'll be truly awkward if Jing Su shows up later and runs into them."
