Chapter 128: Wanna Go Play?
“This… isn’t it a bit inappropriate? Do your parents know about this, Little Ning?”
Compared to Wang Wenjuan’s worries, Xia Hong had a lot more concerns. After all, she’s a Young Lady; what if something happens in her own home? After this incident, Xia Hong was genuinely afraid of the troubles of the rich.
Besides, in Xia Hong’s opinion, even though his child Xia Yu looked like a girl, he should still be a boy, right? So, Jiang Bin and his wife wouldn’t just let their daughter go wild like this.
Sure enough, when Jiang Kekai heard Xia Hong say this, she replied with a hint of displeasure, “They don’t know yet. Anyway, they’re busy with work and can’t come back to have dinner together often, so I’ll just stay with Little Yu for now.”
“Before borrowing a place like this, I think you should at least inform your parents, Little Ning. We can’t have them worrying about you like this.” “So just because my parents agree, you all agree too?”
Xia Hong felt that Jiang Kekai’s parents wouldn’t agree to let their daughter run off like this, so he nodded and said, “Exactly. As long as your parents approve, I have no problem with it.”
“Deal.”
With that, Jiang Kekai actually pulled out her phone and called her father, Jiang Bin. Since all major family decisions were made by Jiang Bin, as long as he approved, there would be no problem.
“Hello, Little Ning, what’s going on?”
“Dad, can I stay at Little Yu’s house for a while?” “Why would you want to stay at someone else’s house? Isn’t it comfortable at home?”
“Oh come on, it’s different! I want to play with Little Yu. You guys never have time to spend with me anyway! So, can I?” This last part really hit Jiang Bin where it counted.
However, Jiang Bin was really in a bind. As the saying goes, the greater the power, the greater the responsibility; as a business tycoon, he had a mountain of work to handle every day. It was unavoidable that he couldn’t always be there for his family.
So, on the other end of the phone, Jiang Bin hesitated for nearly half a minute before replying, “Alright, I’ll send more staff over to ensure your safety. Just don’t run off and cause trouble, okay?”
“Mm-hmm, thanks, Dad! I knew you’d agree!”
“Alright, you… If you come back looking like this, I’ll have the tutor grade you; if you don’t get an excellent score, it’s back to remedial classes for you.” “Got it, got it!”
Saying this, Jiang Kekai happily hung up the phone.
Then, with a smirk, she turned to Xia Hong and said, “So, Uncle, can I stay at your place now?”
“Uh… Sure! We do have an extra room…”
Before Xia Hong could finish, Jiang Kekai interrupted him, “No, I want to sleep with Little Yu!”
“Uh… But Little Yu is a boy, and you’re a girl. Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”
Hearing this, Jiang Kekai guessed that Xia Hong probably didn’t know the truth about Xia Yu yet, but that was fine. “I’m not worried at all, so why should you be?” she continued.
Wang Wenjuan stood next to Xia Hong, silent. She knew about Xia Yu’s situation, so she understood that even if he slept with Jiang Kekai, nothing inappropriate would happen.
Otherwise, she expected she would be worried like her husband—what if their son mismanaged that Young Lady?
Seeing he couldn’t win this argument with the unreasonable Young Lady, Xia Hong nudged his elbow against Wang Wenjuan, hoping she would chime in. But unexpectedly, when Wang Wenjuan spoke up, she left Xia Hong stunned.
“Since you like Little Yu so much, Little Ning, how about you just share a room when you get back?” Those were Wang Wenjuan’s exact words.
“Mm-hmm, I knew you’d agree, Auntie! Thank you!”
…
Watching his unreasonable wife banter with this Young Lady, Jiang Bin felt completely exhausted. He genuinely had no idea what his wife was thinking. Didn’t she worry about their son developing a relationship with the Young Lady?
So, this was something he’d have to figure out on his own.
After giving it some thought, Xia Hong took out his phone and left Xia Yu’s VIP hospital room. Yep, he was going to call Jiang Bin to ask him to manage his daughter a bit. “Hello? What’s up?”
“It’s just that Little Ning insists on sharing a room with my son. I think it’s a bit too intimate for two kids, could you have a word with your daughter?” “Your son, you mean Xia Yu?”
“Exactly. The kids are growing up and have their own ideas, so I really think it’s not appropriate for them to be so close.” “What’s inappropriate about it? I’m busy; is there anything else? If not, I’m hanging up.”
“Uh, okay. You handle your stuff.”
After hanging up, Xia Hong sighed deeply. Now he genuinely had no clue what his wife and Jiang Bin were thinking.
But since the other party’s parents agreed, Xia Hong didn’t want to meddle too much and began to reason with himself that Xia Yu not only had those psychological issues, but also hadn’t fully recovered from his injuries, so he should pose no danger to Jiang Kekai.
Now, Xia Hong only hoped that this Young Lady wouldn’t stay at his house for too long.
Upon returning to the hospital room, Xia Hong found that Jiang Kekai and his wife were already happily chatting away while munching on food. Xia Yu sat by the bed, waiting to be fed by the Young Lady, looking very obedient.
As for the whole feeding situation, Xia Hong and Wang Wenjuan started to turn a blind eye. After all, the Young Lady was happy doing this, and Xia Yu was willing to eat, so why interfere?
As for Xia Ling, she was happily chowing down on her own food, a true foodie!
Looking at the delicious spread on the foldable table, Xia Hong suddenly realized that the packed meal he had earlier didn’t look so appetizing anymore. Without much hesitation, he pulled out his own takeout and began eating.
At this moment, it must be said that being wealthy was great. After everyone finished eating, with a call from Jiang Kekai, the restaurant manager and security staff waiting outside rushed in to help clean up and leave.
Glancing at Xia Yu, who looked bored after the meal, Jiang Kekai didn’t want her to dwell on anything bad, so she quickly tried to bring up another topic to shift Xia Yu’s focus: “Little Yu, do you want to go out and play?”
“Go out?”
“Yeah! This place is so boring. If Little Yu wants to go out, I have ways to take you!”
Just being stuck in this one room, it was impossible for Xia Yu not to feel bored, so she answered honestly, “I want to.”
Now that Xia Yu herself agreed, the next step was for Jiang Kekai to ask her parents, “Uncle, Auntie, is it okay if I take Little Yu out to play?” “Little Yu can move now?”
It’s not that Xia Hong didn’t want Xia Yu and the Young Lady to go out, but he knew Xia Yu had just had surgery yesterday; after losing so much bl**d, wasn’t it a bit too soon to go out and play today?
“Mm-hmm, the doctor said it was fine. Little Yu’s injuries aren’t in any important places; she can already sit up, and she’ll be fully recovered in just a week.”
“A week to recover?”
Xia Hong was a bit surprised by this. He thought Xia Yu would have to lie down for at least a few months, but here it was only a week. Since that’s the case, he decided not to stop Jiang Kekai: “Alright, you two can go wherever you want, just be careful.”
The reason for his acquiescence was that he noticed something else—ever since Xia Yu started interacting with Jiang Kekai, she had been talking more. Perhaps this was a sign that her psychological issues were improving.
Wang Wenjuan didn’t object either because she had noticed the same thing.
Moreover, Wang Wenjuan knew about Xia Yu’s condition, so she had no issues with Xia Yu hanging out with Jiang Kekai. After all, they were both girls; what could really happen?
With that, Jiang Kekai quickly had a bodyguard fetch a wheelchair from the hospital. Since Jiang Kekai had a special status, she could take the wheelchair elsewhere; otherwise, ordinary folks would only be able to use it in the hospital’s vicinity.
Then came the moment to get Xia Yu into the wheelchair.
Initially, Jiang Kekai wanted to pick Xia Yu up like a princess and place her in the wheelchair, but sadly, her strength just wouldn’t cut it. To avoid any accidents, she had to let Wang Wenjuan handle it.
Today, Xia Yu finally experienced her first wheelchair ride in her life.
“Little Yu, is there anywhere you’d like to see? Big Sister can take you!” Jiang Kekai was completely unfazed by Xia Yu’s parents being right there. She playfully pinched Xia Yu’s cheek and asked lightly. Anyone who didn’t know might think Jiang Kekai was actually Xia Yu’s real sister given how caring she was.
Xia Hong and Wang Wenjuan exchanged glances, feeling a bit strange but still kept silent, watching the interaction between Jiang Kekai and Xia Yu unfold.
The most annoyed in this hospital room was Xia Ling. She had thought her parents, or Jiang Kekai’s parents, would never agree to let Jiang Kekai stay at their home, but to her surprise, Jiang Kekai actually pulled it off.
The thought of her cute little sister being monopolized by this Young Lady for days made Xia Ling particularly unhappy. Xia Yu was clearly her sister; why was this outsider invading her turf?
Annoyed as she was, Xia Ling could only sulk quietly because she knew she wouldn’t stand a chance against this Young Lady. She was rich and influential, and now Xia Ling just hoped this Young Lady would leave soon.
Only then could she continue playing with her new sister; otherwise, Jiang Kekai, with her crazy possessiveness, wouldn’t let her get close to Xia Yu at all. So, Xia Ling was really feeling the pain!
