Chapter 174 Misunderstanding (1/2)
Han Siqi is absorbed in the solution when his phone rings on the bed.
It’s from the brother.
“Siqi, where are you?”
“At mom’s house.”
“Come to my home and I have something to talk with you.”
After hanging up, Han Siqi looks at the time and rises, guessing why his brother wants to see him so late.
When he is about to go out, someone knocks at the door. He opens the door and sees Li Xiaomeng.
“Siqi, the light in my bathroom doesn’t work again. I don’t know whether it’s because of line contact…” Li Xiaomeng finds Han Siqi in a hurry and asks, “Do you have to go out so late?”
Han Siqi nods, “My brother just called me, sounding anxious. I am afraid there is something wrong with the elder sister-in-law.”
Li Xiaomeng says quietly, “She has been discharged from the hospital, hasn’t she? Just go right now, and don’t be late.”
Han Siqi dashes out. After a few steps, he turns around, saying, “I’ll repair your light after I come back. Let it alone. It’s dangerous. If you want to take a shower, come to my room.”
Li Xiaomeng nods and urges him, “I know. Go now.”
Then Han Siqi goes downstairs in a hurry and heads straight for Han Sixian’s.
Han Sixian is in the sitting room downstairs. Seeing Han Siqi, he stands up to greet him, “Siqi, here you come.”
The brother’s politeness makes Han Siqi feel unaccustomed. He greets back in a low voice, “Brother.”
“Sit down.”
Han Sixian serves Han Siqi a cup of hot tea and then comes straight to the point, “Your elder sister-in-law has hardly eaten anything since her discharge yesterday.”
Han Siqi is surprised, “Why not go to hospital right now?”
“Take it easy and listen to me. That she doesn’t eat anything is not because of health problems, but because she feels sorry about Zhengzheng.”
“What is she sorry for?”
“Zhengzheng is thrown out of Han family because of her. She said Zhengzheng always prevented her from taking the rotator medicine. In order to prevent her that day, Zhengzheng almost quarreled with mom. She believes Zhengzheng will not hurt her in any case. After knowing what happened this morning, she is even more restless, thinking it’s she who causes Zhengzheng’s separation from her son.”
“It’s none of her business.”
Han Sixian sighs, “I also told her it’s none of her business, but she insists on blaming herself for it. I can’t persuade her. She is already inconsolable for the loss of the baby, and now she is worried about Zhengzheng. I’m afraid if the situation continues, her health will break down even if she doesn’t suffer depression.”
Han Siqi says nothing and looks up at his brother, waiting him to go on.
“Don’t you know about your second brother? Do you believe he really has a special relation with Zhengzheng?”
Han Siqi shakes his head silently.
“Now that you think they are pure, go to take Zhengzheng home. I will persuade dad and mom.”
“Wait.” Han Siqi stops the rising brother, “Let’s put it off for a few days.”
He has been afraid that his brother would make this request at such a critical moment.
Han Sixian asks immediately, “Why?”
“Something was originally wrong between Zhengzheng and me. We can just take this chance to calm down.”
“But your sister-in-law’s health can’t wait! You can calm down after you take Zhengzheng back! If she can’t see Zhengzheng, she will not eat and sleep well. How serious it will be!”
Han Siqi thinks and says, “I will give you a reply tomorrow.”
If Li Xiaomeng takes that necklace away tonight, it will be OK to take Zhengzheng back, but…”
“Siqi, though I don’t know why my baby disappeared suddenly, I believe Zhengzheng is not to blame! I trust her!”
Seeing pale Nie Wan going downstairs slowly, Han Sixian rushes to support her, “Wan, why do you come down? Be cautious to catch a cold!”
“I’m fine.” Nie Wan manages a smile and turns to Han Siqi, explaining, “Siqi, you must trust Zhengzheng too, because she treats every member of the family sincerely.”
“I…” Han Siqi can’t bear to make her unhappier, so he pauses and says, “I will bring Zhengzheng to see you tomorrow.”
Nie Wan’s eyes light up, and she becomes excited at once, “Really? Great.”
Han Siqi nods and raises his phone, “I’ll call her right now. Brother, please take my sister-in-law upstairs to rest.”
Han Sixian says, “Then she will wait for you at home tomorrow.”
“OK.” Then Han Siqi goes out.
Watching Han Siqi out, Han Sixian and Nie Wan smile to each other.
Han Sixian warns Nie Wan dotingly, “It’s only a show. Don’t forget you haven’t recovered. Why didn’t you put on one more coat when you came down?”
“I’m not so fragile.” Nie Wan smiles gently. Going upstairs hand in hand with Han Sixian, she asks softly, “Sixian, are you prepared for persuading your parents?”
Han Sixian replies with a smile, “Don’t you know about the temper of Siqi? If he wants to take Zhengzheng back, can my parents prevent him? Before they got their marriage certificate, he didn’t tell parents such an important thing, did he?”
“You are right. But anyway, it’s unacceptable that your parents are always dissatisfied with Zhengzheng.”
