196 Chapter 195, A Healthy Child
Hu Chunli leaned to the side and held Li Xu’s hand tightly, her eyes were filled with anticipation as if she was seeking approval. “He only wanted a healthy child, a son. I wasn’t willing to give birth for him and even threw a tantrum with him. That’s why I pushed him to another woman’s side. Today, he drank too much alcohol, and that’s why… Jingyi needs a father!”
Li Xu looked at Hu Chunli in surprise.
Yang junying not only abused her, but he also cheated on her?
“It takes two to tango. If he can treat you like this in front of the child today, in the future…” Li Xu wanted to advise her, but when she looked at Hu Chunli’s eyes, she suddenly stopped.
What she said was not what Hu Chunli wanted to hear.
After a moment, she sighed. “Forget it. Your mind must be in a mess right now. I won’t say anymore.”
Listening to Zhang Kun’s description, Yang Junying did not care about the child’s feelings at all. He continued to beat Hu Chunli in front of her.
It was obvious that in Yang Junying’s heart, not only was Hu Chunli not important, but Yang Jingyi was also not important anymore.
He only wanted a healthy child? Li Xu really had no way to retort to this sentence.
Could it be that if the child was not healthy and fell ill, it would not be his child anymore?
No one would despise their own child! If there was, then they were not a human but a beast!
“You can stay at my house tonight. You can stay as long as you want. The child still has to go to school.” Li Xu raised her hand and patted Hu Chunli’s shoulder. “I’ll go get the medicine and treat your wounds.”
Li Xu took the medicine box and helped Hu Chunli apply the medicine to the wound on her face. Only then did she bring the mother and daughter to her bedroom.
Her bedroom was given to Hu Chunli and her daughter. She and Yuanyuan could just sleep in the same room.
When Li Xu woke up the next morning, Hu Chunli had already woken up.
After a night, her mood seemed to have almost recovered. However, the blackness under her eyes had betrayed her.
Last night, she probably couldn’t sleep at all.
Hu Chunli forced a smile and said, “Sorry to trouble you guys last night. When Jingyi wakes up, I’ll bring her home. Her school bag is still at home!”
Go Home? Li Xu frowned and said, “You’re going home just like that?”
Even if Hu Chunli decided to forgive Yang junying, she couldn’t forgive him so easily, right?
She had to at least, wait for Yang Junying to pick her up or apologize and promise that he would never do it again before going back.
Hu Chunli’s rush would only make Yang junying fearless.
There would always be a second time when there was such a thing as domestic violence.
Hu Chunli didn’t seem to understand Li Xu’s words. She said calmly, “Yeah, Jingyi can’t go to school without her schoolbag, right?”
Li Xu Sighed and did not try to persuade her. She only said, “Alright, I have to go to the shop first.”
Hu Chunli smiled and watched Li Xu leave.
When Ji Yuanyuan woke up, Li Xu’s bedroom door was open. There was no one around.
Where did Yang Jingyi go?
Ji Yuanyuan went to school with a question in her mind.
Could it be that Jingyi’s mother brought her back to her parents’ house? What about Jingyi’s school?
However, when she arrived at school, Ji Yuanyuan was dumbfounded.
Yang Jingyi had long been sitting in the classroom, but her eyes were dull and lifeless.
When she saw Ji Yuanyuan, she forced a smile and greeted her. “Good morning!”
Ji Yuanyuan had a lot of questions in her heart to ask Yang Jingyi, but it was not appropriate for her to ask in front of so many classmates, so she could only wait until after class.
So the two deskmates were absent-minded in class.
In a short 45 minutes, the two received chalk three times and were asked questions five times.
Fortunately, these questions were nothing to Ji Yuanyuan, so she could answer them every time.
But Yang Jingyi was in trouble, she could not answer them every time.
The teacher looked at the two of them in a wrong way.
In the second half of the class, Ji Yuanyuan tried her best to concentrate and managed to pass the class.
As soon as the bell rang, Ji Yuanyuan pulled Yang Jingyi out.
The teacher who was about to call the two of them to the office was dumbfounded.
Ji Yuanyuan pulled Yang Jingyi all the way to the playground.
There was no PE class today, so no one was on the playground.
“Jingyi, when did you and your mother leave this morning? Where did you go?”
Yang Jingyi said in a low voice, “We went home!”
She looked tired and sad.
“Home? Was your father at home?” Ji Yuanyuan asked again.
What was Hu Chunli thinking? She had just been beaten last night, and she went home with her child this morning?
“He was, he ignored my mother when she talked to him. Yuanyuan, why did my father become like this? He used to be very good to us!” Yang Jingyi looked at Ji Yuanyuan with tears in her eyes.
Ji Yuanyuan didn’t know how to comfort Yang Jingyi, so she could only silently pat her on the shoulder.
“Is it because I spent a lot of money when I was sick that my father got angry? Then if I promise him that I will be obedient from now on and never get hurt, will he be like before?”
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Yang Jingyi and sighed helplessly.
Obviously, Hu Chunli wanted to pretend that what happened last night had never happened and continue living with Yang junying.
...
No matter what the reason was, whether it was because Yang Jingyi needed money when she was sick or because Yang Jingyi needed her father. Ji Yuanyuan felt that Hu Chunli would definitely regret her choice in the future.
To put it nicely, she could not think it through! To put it bluntly, she was muddleheaded.
Speaking of which, after experiencing this incident, Ji Yuanyuan started to idolize her mother, Li Xu.
Back then, before she discovered Ji Jianguo’s affair, Li Xu had already decided to divorce Ji Jianguo decisively. In this era, divorce was a very shameful thing. Later, when she found out that Ji Jianguo had cheated on her, Li Xu quickly settled down.
Her educational background was not high. On the surface, she looked weak, but on the inside, she was very tenacious. She had the courage to take care of her three children by herself and start over.
Hu Chunli, on the other hand, was the exact opposite of Li Xu.
She had a very good educational background and was very capable of working. However, after encountering such a situation, her choice was to keep the peace.
Since this was Hu Chunli’s choice, no one else could interfere.
Ji Yuanyuan could only pat Yang Jingyi on the shoulder. “If you’re unhappy, come to my house.”
Yang Jingyi looked at Ji Yuanyuan and almost cried. “Yuanyuan, you’re the best to me!”
As she said that, she was about to hug Ji Yuanyuan.
...
Looking at Yang Jingyi’s snot that was about to flow out, Ji Yuanyuan quickly reached out and pushed her. “My coat is new. Don’t get it dirty.”
Hearing that, Yang Jingyi immediately chased after Ji Yuanyuan, as if she had returned to her cheerful self.
The class teacher came over when school was about to end in the afternoon.
The results of last week’s midterm exam were out. She came to announce the results this time.
She read them from the first rank, and everyone counted their scores in silence.
