After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 83: Chapter 83 What if it’s unavoidable?

Mr. Song had to mentally prepare himself before he could slightly tug at the corners of his mouth and ask, “How did you know someone tampered with my water? Do you suspect anyone?”

Sinian usually didn’t bother with such trivial messes, unless…

“If you can handle this matter, don’t trouble my wife with it. If you can’t, I can take care of it for you.” Before Mr. Song could clarify things, Sinian responded ruthlessly.

Mr. Song’s lips twitched, “I don’t need you, you little brat, to teach me how to handle such petty issues!”

He had thought retirement would bring peace, but he had not expected his home to become infested with vermin.

It was indeed time for a thorough clean-up.

However, the affair couldn’t be dealt with ostentatiously, as it was still unclear how many vermin were in the house, and more importantly, Zhaozhao could very likely get hurt if things were handled too harshly.

Sinian must have been aware of these concerns to confront him directly, right?

Ah, the little brat had finally seen the light…

Because he had spent the weekend with Sinian at the office, Zhaozhao, right after finishing her first two classes on Monday morning, went to the hospital during her free period.@@novelbin@@

She heard from Xia Wenjue that Xia Wenmo was scheduled for surgery soon and hoped everything would go smoothly.

When she reached the door of the ward, she saw Xia Wenmo painting on his drawing board. Curiously, she stood at the doorway, watching him, careful not to interrupt.

In the quiet hospital room, he painted with intense concentration, using colors that were bold and distinctive.

It looked somewhat familiar…

Such a distinctive painting, she would definitely remember if she had seen it before.

While Zhaozhao was searching her mind, Xia Wenmo just finished his painting and turned around to see the person at the door.

“Zhaozhao? You’re here?” Xia Wenmo’s eyes immediately curved in a smile, waving at her, “Come and see how my new painting looks?”

Zhaozhao nodded and walked in. As she stood before the oil painting, the sense of familiarity intensified.

She frowned, “This style… It’s a bit like…”

“Like the one you bought at the auction?” Before Zhaozhao could finish her sentence, Xia Wenmo blurted out.

Zhaozhao immediately nodded, “Yes, yes, this style…”

Her words were abruptly cut off.

Her eyes widened in shock, and she stared at Xia Wenmo in disbelief, “You couldn’t possibly be that painter abyss, could you?”

Although Zhaozhao had concluded, deep down, she was frantically hoping Xia Wenmo would deny it.

But to her disappointment, Xia Wenmo slightly nodded, “That’s right, I am the painter abyss. I never expected that the first painting I sold in China would be bought by my own sister~”

“…”

At that moment, Zhaozhao’s mind was completely in disarray.

If painter abyss was Xia Wenmo, that meant he… was dying.

Previously, she had lamented the untimely death of this painter.

At the time, she didn’t know the painter and simply felt it was a case of a bright life cut short.

But now, this living person was right in front of her, her own brother!

Zhaozhao didn’t know what to do.

What exactly had caused Xia Wenmo’s death in the previous life?

Was it because the surgery failed?

Then if she had helped find a doctor, could this tragedy have been avoided?

But what if it couldn’t be avoided?

Once Lu Zhaozhao thought of this, she could no longer control her tears as they began falling from her eyes.

Xia Wenmo was about to ask Lu Zhaozhao to praise him when he turned and saw her tears falling non-stop like broken beads.

He immediately felt helpless, “Zhaozhao, don’t cry? I—I didn’t mean to keep it from you. If you’re upset about the money spent on the painting, I—I can give it all to you, okay?”

“Not okay!” While wiping her tears, Lu Zhaozhao looked at Xia Wenmo and said, “Unless you promise to undergo the surgery safely, you must be safe, okay?”

She knew it was unreasonable to demand a patient to be completely safe, but she just couldn’t help it.

Every time she thought about what happened in her previous life, she couldn’t help but feel terrified.

She would rather give up the tenfold profit from the painting.

She wanted to keep this brother who was so gentle with her.

Xia Wenmo, completely flustered by Lu Zhaozhao crying, agreed to everything she said, “Okay, okay, I promise everything, be good, don’t cry now…”

As he spoke, he squatted halfway down, carefully wiping Lu Zhaozhao’s tears with the sleeve of his garment.

However, this scene was clearly seen by Xia Wenjue as he entered the room.

“How did you make Zhaozhao cry?” Holding two bags of groceries and seeing Lu Zhaozhao’s teary eyes, then looking at Xia Wenmo’s apologetic face, his brows immediately furrowed.

He unhappily set down the groceries and strode towards them.

Without thinking, Lu Zhaozhao stretched out her hands to shield Xia Wenmo, “Big brother, it’s not Triplet Brother’s fault, I was just thinking too much.”

As she spoke, tears once again uncontrollably fell.

Now Xia Wenjue was also panicked, “What were you thinking about? Did someone bully you? Tell big brother and I will stand up for you!”

“Yes! Triplet Brother will stand up for you too!” Xia Wenmo couldn’t help but join in.

…

But this made Lu Zhaozhao cry even harder.

Xia Wenjue and Xia Wenmo had to consider whether Lu Zhaozhao was being bullied in the Song Family.

The two exchanged glances, and Xia Wenjue tentatively spoke, “Zhaozhao, do you want to stay with the Xia Family for a few days? Mom has really missed you, too.”

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhaozhao shook her head without even thinking about it, “No need, big brother.”

She sniffled and wiped her face again, then after a moment, she looked at Xia Wenjue, “Big brother, I have something I want to ask you privately…”

Xia Wenjue nodded, glanced at Xia Wenmo, who also nodded, then took Lu Zhaozhao to a partition in the hospital room.

This room, completely separated from the next hospital room, was specially arranged for Xia Wenmo’s convenience.

It even had hidden surveillance installed.

So Xia Wenmo could hear everything Lu Zhaozhao and Xia Wenjue were saying.

As soon as the door closed, Lu Zhaozhao hurriedly grabbed Xia Wenjue’s arm and asked, “Big brother, how experienced is the doctor performing the surgery on Triplet Brother? If he’s not good enough, can we wait a little longer? Find someone more capable, can we?”

“Uh…” Xia Wenjue was clearly stunned, “The thing you just worried about, wasn’t it about Triplet Brother’s surgery?”

Because Lu Zhaozhao had previously given a water sample to Xia Wenqing, he had thought she was being bullied in the Song Family…
