Getting injured and then having a new wallet—I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

"Okay, I get it."

Upon hearing this, the waiter said nothing more, turned around, and left.

……

The next morning, Shang Qing was woken up by a knock on the door before he was fully awake.

She frowned, sat up, hopped to the door on one leg, and opened it.

After opening the door, I saw Luo Bin.

Luo Bin looked at Shang Qing with great anxiety, finally fixing his gaze on Shang Qing's legs, and asked, "What happened? Didn't you go back yesterday? How could this happen?"

Shang Qing was also somewhat surprised. She turned around and jumped towards the table. Luo Bin tried to help her, but Shang Qing pushed him away.

She walked to the table and sat down, asking, "How did you know I was here?"

She had an accident yesterday, and Luo Bin found out this morning. Isn't that a bit too fast?

Upon hearing this, Luo Bin pursed his lips, his face still somewhat speechless.

He pointed out the window and said, "Yesterday someone was hit by a carriage and taken to the clinic across the street. His name is Shang Qing. He's at the Passenger Transport Inn now. Who else could it be but you?"

"They also said that you received a lot of compensation from that girl, and that you'll be rich for the rest of your life."

She used to think that gossip was very popular where she lived, but now it seems that gossip is popular not only where she lives.

It's popular here too.

Moreover, the speed at which this information spread was truly extraordinary; it even reached Luo Bin's ears...

Shang Qing looked down at her legs and said helplessly, "Fada didn't see them, but I definitely can't go back in my current state."

After saying that, Shang Qing turned to Luo Bin and said, "Could you come to my house and tell my older brother about my injury, so they won't worry?"

"Don't let the children know. I'll go back when I'm feeling better."

Luo Bin hummed in agreement and said, "Don't worry, I'll be there in a bit. But don't you think all of this is too much of a coincidence?"

Is it really a coincidence that something happened as soon as Shang Qing left?

No matter how he thought about it, he felt it wasn't that simple.

Shang Qing shared the same idea.

However, they don't know who is behind this, nor what their purpose is. Without evidence, even if they tell others, no one will believe them.

Luo Bin sat there for a while, then turned around and left.

When he arrived at Shang Qing's house, Pan'er and the others were all sitting outside, and Gu Hui was also sitting outside.

They were all looking at the doorway, their faces full of worry.

They didn't see Shang Qing, but upon seeing Luo Bin and the others, they immediately stood up.

Gu Hui stopped in front of Luo Bin, looking at him anxiously.

"Um, where's Shang Qing? You left together yesterday, why didn't you come back together today?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Bin raised his hand and touched his nose, unsure of what to say.

After a while, he turned his head and glanced at the child behind him.

Seeing Luo Bin's lingering gaze, Gu Ru seemed to understand something and said, "Pan'er, you two go and prepare some food for Mr. Luo."

Pan'er gritted her teeth, looking at Luo Bin with worry, and after a while asked, "Mr. Luo, is my mother alright?"

Luo Bin shook his head, a smile spreading across his face, and said, "Don't worry, your mother is fine. Don't you believe me?"

Hearing this, Pan'er wanted to ask something more, but seeing Gu Hui's gaze, she nodded and took Nian'er and Xi'er back to their room.

Soon, only the two of them remained in the courtyard.

Gu Huai didn't waste any more time and stared straight at Luo Bin, asking, "Mr. Luo, what's going on with Shang Qing?"

"She knows the child is at home and never leaves for such a long time. Has something happened?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Bin paused for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement.

"She was hit by a carriage yesterday on her way back and injured her leg. She's still staying at the inn so you won't worry."

"I came here to let you know that she is alright."

How did you get hit by the carriage?

Gu Hui frowned, his expression becoming even more worried.

Without thinking twice, he raised his hands and placed them on Luo Bin's arms, saying, "Here's what we'll do: take me there to have a look. Don't worry, I'll be right back after I've seen it."

Upon hearing this, Luo Bin hesitated for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, he nodded.

"Yes, but she's really fine."

"Don't worry, don't scare the children."

Seeing that Luo Bin didn't seem to be lying, Gu Hui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s okay if it’s okay, it’s okay if it’s okay.

If something were to happen to Shang Qing, he really wouldn't know how to explain it to the children.

After saying that, Gu Huai turned to look at the door, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, he said, "Okay, I'll go make her some soup, and we'll go together in a bit."

"Row!"

Luo Bin nodded and agreed immediately.

Gu Huai hummed in agreement, turned around, and walked towards the kitchen.

There's not much good stuff at home, so we can only make some vegetable soup.

However, he could go tomorrow, so Gu Hui wasn't in such a hurry.

He was busy in the kitchen, while Luo Bin watched from the doorway.

Seeing Gu Huai's continuous movements, Luo Bin frowned and asked, "Is it this troublesome?"

Hearing this, Gu Hui paused for a moment, turned around to look behind him, and asked in surprise, "You don't know how?"

Luo Bin did not deny it, but simply nodded.

"I've never done these things at home, so naturally I don't know how."

After saying this, Luo Bin sighed, his face full of helplessness.

"Even if I wanted to do it for them now, it would be too late. Heaven won't give me that chance."

Even if he wanted to make amends now, there's no way to do so.

Seeing Luo Bin like this, Gu Hui opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed his words and closed his mouth without saying anything more, not knowing what else to say.

When did he start to dislike Luo Bin?

When Shang Qing was injured on the neck?

Shang Qing told him about this. If he had experienced something like that, and then met someone who looked exactly like him, and it wasn't even certain if that person was the murderer, he would probably be even more agitated.

Not to mention Luo Bin.

Yes, not to mention Luo Bin, so why does he hate Luo Bin so much?

Gu Hui shook his head, lowered his head, and continued what he was doing.

After he finished cooking, he didn't serve it out immediately. Instead, he served a bowl to each of them and also served a bowl to Luo Bin.

Gu Hui turned to look at Luo Bin and said with a smile, "Alright, don't be sad. I prepared these especially for you. Try them and see how they are."

Luo Bin was somewhat surprised by the smile on Gu Hui's face.

To be honest, he could sense that Gu Huai didn't like him before.

However, they didn't take it to heart.

Now that I'm looking at Gu Huai, does that mean I don't dislike him anymore?
