She Always Loves To Sleep

Chapter 12 Life-saving grace

“What’s the result of standing up for others? They’re fine, but you’ve lost your job. Shan Mingxi, do you have any brains?!”

Li Jiu’s tone became colder.

 Those who can go to hotels like this all over the world are respectable people. This kind of thing is very common.

How is it that the second-generation rich man and his colleagues are their own affairs, and do they need him to meddle in their own business?

Shan Mingxi lowered his head, his eyes were slightly red, and his voice was choked, "I'm sorry."

 It was because he was impulsive.

Li Jiu sighed and handed him the phone in her hand, "Your mother is very worried about you."

Shan Mingxi stood up from the ground, took the phone, walked aside, leaned against the wall, and called Shan's mother.

 A few minutes later, he returned the phone to Li Jiu.

“Sister Li Jiu,” he asked suddenly, “do you think I shouldn’t come to the Imperial Capital?”

 Perhaps the mother and son should not leave that place.

Li Jiu remained silent and did not answer him.

“Hey, Xige, what’s wrong with you? Your hair is wet.”

Back in the box, Shan Mingxi’s buddy saw his embarrassed look and asked in surprise.

 Then he looked at Li Jiu quietly.

What on earth did these two people do?

Haven’t this woman beaten Xige again?

Last time Xige was drinking with them, this woman suddenly rushed in and beat Xige up.

Later I found out that this person was Xige’s sister.

 How can there be such a sister!

Shan Mingxi picked up the coat thrown on the ground and said, "Kuanzi, I'm leaving first."

Kawako saw that Shan Mingxi's expression was obviously wrong, so he said nothing more, "Okay, let's meet again next time."

 There’s still a next time?

Li Jiu glanced at Kawako coldly.

 The latter immediately felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet.

After leaving the bar, Li Jiu looked at Shan Mingxi, who had been following him, and said, "In the future, I'll stop associating with those bad friends of yours."

Shan Mingxi scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "Well, actually Kawako and the others are very good to me..."

In Li Jiu's increasingly cold eyes, he swallowed the rest of his words wisely and nodded.

 “What are your plans?”

The two were walking on the street, and Li Jiu suddenly asked.

Shan Mingxi kicked the pebbles under his feet and said nonchalantly: "What other plans do you have? Just find a new job."

"actually…"

Just as Li Jiu was about to say something, a phone ring interrupted her.

 “Hello, who is this?”

 Then, she saw the face of the person in front of her suddenly turn colorless.

 “What’s wrong?” she asked.

Shan Mingxi looked at her with a pale face, "My mother, something happened."

 …

 When the two of them arrived at the hospital, the single mother had already been pushed into the emergency room.

Shan Mingxi leaned against the wall of the hospital, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, looking a little tired.

His voice was hoarse: "This is the third time."

Since coming to Dijing, the single mother has been sick three times.

 The disease of a single mother is the root cause of the disease that occurred when she was young. It has been recurring for so many years. Now that she is older, the possibility of cure is very small.

not to mention. She still has knots in her heart.

Li Jiu was also leaning against the wall, holding a plastic stick in his mouth.

"Your mother's illness cannot be delayed any longer."

Shan Mingxi had a headache, "I've tried to persuade her several times, but she just didn't listen."

　　Every time he mentioned this matter, Shan Mu was always vague.

 In the final analysis, it is still because of my sister...

 The door to the rescue room opened.

 “Who are Shan Yu’s family members?” a doctor asked.

Shan Mingxi stepped forward quickly, "I, I am."

"The patient is out of danger, but I advise you to be mentally prepared. She..."

 The doctor sighed and said no more.

Shan Mingxi felt a little tight in her chest. Although she knew Shan Yu's condition, she still felt a little sour when she heard what the doctor said.

 “I understand, thank you doctor.”

The doctor gave a few more instructions and left.

  In the ward

The single mother was lying on the hospital bed, her face pale. She was obviously only in her forties, but her face had many wrinkles like an old lady in her sixties or seventies. She was so thin that she was almost only skin and bones.

　No one spoke, only silence.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a moment.

"well-"

 A faint sigh sounded, and the person on the bed slowly opened his eyes.

"mom-"

 “Single aunt—”

 As soon as Shan's mother opened her eyes, she faced Shan Mingxi's enlarged face.

 There is still stubble on his face.

 Somewhat disgusted.

 She tilted her head slightly and looked to the side.

 “Jiujiu, you’re here!”

Hearing Shan's mother's name, Li Jiu felt helpless, "Aunt Shan, let me see you."

Shan Mu’s eyes were full of smiles, “Oh, what’s so good about a bunch of old bones? By the way, are you okay at the Li family?”

 “Well, that’s good.”

"Don't deal with me," Shan's mother said, "I know better than you what Li Hong is like."

That man only has himself in his heart and has no family affection at all.

 With Li Jiu's temperament, it is inevitable that he will be bullied by Li Hong in the Li family.

Looking at Shan's mother's worried eyes, Li Jiu smiled and said, "Aunt Shan, don't worry, no one can bully me."

The single mother sighed, "Jiujiu, I'm sorry for you, you shouldn't have been involved."

"It's okay, I did it voluntarily, so I consider it as repaying your life-saving grace."

Shan's mother suddenly widened her eyes and said disapprovingly: "What kind of life-saving grace? I just bandaged your wound. What kind of life-saving grace is it?"

What's more, she has done enough for their mother and son over the years.
