Chapter 331: He Yuyu prepares to live on campus
Meanwhile, in the hospital.
Sha Zhu had woken up, but he kept his eyes closed and dared not open them. The pain on his face made him twitch slightly.
Seeing this, He Yushui hurriedly called out, "Dad, look, is my brother awake?"
He Daqing glanced at the bed, then looked at He Yushui: "Yushui, go outside and buy some food. Your brother and I have something to talk about."
He Yushui hesitated for a moment, then nodded and walked out.
After everyone left, He Daqing looked at He Yuzhu, who was still pretending to be asleep: "Alright, open your eyes."
Sha Zhu slowly opened his eyes, struggled to sit up, and lowered his head, not daring to look at He Daqing.
He Daqing looked at his son, feeling both helpless and heartbroken: "Alright, stop pretending. Remember what I said."
"First, once you're discharged from the hospital, transfer those two houses under your name to Qin Huairu."
Sha Zhu's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at He Daqing in disbelief: "Dad, this..."
He Daqing's face immediately darkened: "What? Do I have to repeat the bastard things you did last night?"
He Yuzhu lowered his head in shame and managed to squeeze out a single word: "...Okay."
He Daqing continued, "Secondly, from now on you can eat alone in the central courtyard, while Qin Huairu and I will start a new kitchen in the backyard. Your sister can eat with whomever she wants."
The father and son were talking in the ward, neither of them expecting that He Yushui hadn't gone far at all, but was standing outside the door, having heard their conversation clearly.
She was in a state of confusion and distress, torn between her father and her brother. She didn't know what to do, so she could only wait until they finished talking inside before silently leaving the corridor.
Walking outside, He Yushui thought about what happened last night and the conversation she had just overheard, and she didn't know how to face her family.
She bought some things and brought them back to the hospital. When she entered, He Daqing and He Yuzhu had already returned to normal.
He Yushui handed over the things, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Dad, I went to bed too early last night and didn't have time to tell you..."
He Daqing was taken aback: "Yushui, what's wrong?"
"The school is under a lot of pressure lately, and going back and forth is too much of a waste of time. I think that living on campus during this period will allow me to discuss my studies with my classmates more often," He Yushui said softly.
He Daqing immediately frowned: "Yushui, do you know something?"
Upon hearing this, Shazhu immediately tensed up.
He Yushui quickly shook her head: "Dad, what are you talking about? What do I know?"
Seeing that she seemed normal, He Daqing didn't dare to ask any more questions and could only say, "Okay, then stay for a while and don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Um."
He Daqing took out another fifty yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into her hand: "Take this, ask for more if it's not enough."
"Dad, that's too much." He Yushui quickly waved her hand.
"Take it if we tell you to, and buy whatever you need at school."
He Yuzhu, who was standing to the side, also took out twenty yuan as if by some strange impulse: "Yushui, this is for you, brother."
He Yushui was both surprised and helpless: "What are you doing? It's not like I'm not coming back, I'm just staying for a while."
He Yuzhu was slightly relieved. He really couldn't imagine how he would face his sister if she knew about his shameful deeds.
Soon He Yushui took the money and left the hospital. Instead of returning to courtyard house number 95, she turned around and walked to the entrance of courtyard house number 90.
As soon as Zhang Lei opened the door and saw He Yushui, he immediately greeted her with a smile, "Yushui, come in quickly."
He Yushui gently shook her head: "Brother Zhang Lei, can you talk to me for a bit?"
Zhang Lei could tell at a glance that something was on her mind, so he nodded and said, "Okay, wait for me a moment."
He told his family what he was doing, then pushed his bicycle out and said, "Let's go."
The two rode their bikes to a secluded little park. Zhang Lei pushed the bike while He Yushui followed silently beside him, her head down the whole time.
Zhang Lei didn't urge her; he quietly accompanied her.
After more than ten minutes, seeing that she was still hesitant to speak, Zhang Lei asked softly, "Yushui, are you having trouble? Tell me if you have any problems, and I'll help you."
As soon as she finished speaking, He Yushui suddenly hugged Zhang Lei and burst into tears.
Zhang Lei, holding onto the car with one hand, was momentarily at a loss. He quickly looked around and thankfully no one was there. Otherwise, if the Little Foot Detective Team had seen him, he would have been labeled a hooligan at the very least.
After crying for a while, He Yushui realized that she had soaked a large area of Zhang Lei's chest with her tears. She said in a low voice, embarrassed, "Brother Zhang Lei, I'm sorry..."
Zhang Lei pulled the car over to the side and smiled, "You've already cried your eyes out, and now you feel embarrassed?"
He Yushui blushed: "I didn't mean to."
Zhang Lei gently patted her head: "I was just kidding. Does it make you feel better after crying? Can you tell me what happened?"
Seeing that she was still hesitant, Zhang Lei softened his tone: "It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. Do you want me to do something else with you?"
He Yushui shook her head: "I just want you to keep me company."
Zhang Lei laughed: "Okay, then I'll take you shopping, to the movies, to eat delicious food, and I'll buy you a new outfit and dress you up nicely, okay?"
He Yushui was taken aback: "Brother Zhang Lei, aren't these things... things that boyfriends and girlfriends do?"
Zhang Lei laughed: "Who made that rule? You're not even an adult yet, you're just a little sister."
He Yushui immediately raised her head defiantly: "What little sister? Where is she little?"
Zhang Lei glanced down subconsciously, then looked away as if nothing had happened.
He Yushui was instantly embarrassed and annoyed, grabbing his arm and shaking it incessantly: "Brother Zhang Lei, you're so annoying!"
Zhang Lei understood her thoughts perfectly well, but since she was still young, he smiled and said, "We'll talk about it when you turn eighteen."
He Yushui nodded seriously, her eyes filled with determination: "Brother Zhang Lei, when I turn eighteen, I'll be your wife."
Zhang Lei was slightly taken aback. He had long noticed that the rain was different towards him, but he hadn't said anything.
He nodded readily, "Okay. But there are conditions for becoming my wife."
"What are the conditions?" He Yushui immediately asked.
"You can't be this thin. I like you to be chubby. You look better when you're a little plump."
He Yushui frowned: "You're lying."
"When have I ever lied to you? Look at you now, you're so thin, you definitely haven't been eating well," Zhang Lei coaxed He Yushui.
"No, that's not true. My dad's back now, and my brother's back to normal. They both love me very much," He Yushui said.
Zhang Lei teased her deliberately, "Then why are you still so thin?"
"Girls look better when they're thin," He Yushui argued softly.
Zhang Lei suddenly reached out and hugged her tightly, whispering, "Let me see."
He Yushui was so frightened that she froze, not daring to move, feeling both nervous and happy.
Zhang Lei gently picked her up and said, "Look, she's so light, I picked her up in no time."
Just then, a stern shout suddenly rang out:
"What are you doing! What are you two doing there?!"
Zhang Lei turned around and saw three elderly women in their fifties walking towards him; they were clearly members of the Little Feet Detective Team.
Without saying a word, he put He Yushui down: "Yushui, get in the car quickly!"
He Yushui panicked and quickly jumped into the car, tightly hugging Zhang Lei's waist.
