Adoption: Promises of Love - Chapter 43

Adoption Chapter 44: Protection

As long as you are just a little bit kinder than your opponent, then you can’t be on the winning side.
And when your opponent can be cruel to himself, then unless you are as cruel as he is, or strong enough, you will lose miserably.
If even then you are going to fight with your opponent to the low, then bring the person who loves you the most to protect you.
Just as Luo Rui Xi said, Ye Zi Mei’s parents arrived at the hospital two hours ago, the more than four hours of traveling had made the two old men who were over half a hundred years old look tired.
“Ziyi, how is Zi Mei?”
“Sister is fine, and now that the numbness zui has passed, she seems to be too tired and is still sleeping.”
“That’s good that’s good.”
Ye Yuanchang relaxed and looked much older while his wife was still uneasy about her daughter and dragged Ziqi to have a look.
“Uncle Ye, I’m sorry for not taking care of Zi Mei.”
Luo Ruixi apologized respectfully, knowing that the next step was the beginning of the rise of the accusation.
“Rui Xi ah, how about we go somewhere else to talk?”
“Everything will be arranged by Uncle Ye.”
Seeing Luo Rui Xi being so deferential Ye Yuan Chang’s face eased a bit, dissatisfiedly casting a sidelong glance at Luo Yi who had been silent all this time, he said in a deep voice, “That child also comes along.”
Luo Rui Xi was stunned, tensed her nerves and answered, “Yes.”
The three of them came to the gazebo at the back of the hospital, Ye Yuanchang touched the jade trigger finger on his thumb and sat down, not greeting Luo Rui Xi as they sat down.
“I called Dean Li right after I got off the plane, he told me that Zi Mei was moderately poisoned by strychnine, and that she became like this after eating lily and lotus congee, I want to hear you explain.”
Ye Yuanchang’s pair of eyes stared at Luo Rui Xi, his eyes that had been polished over the years were sharp, giving the impression that he could see through everything, if he were someone else he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to hold back his heart and tremble. And Luo Ruixi was very calm, not slow to give an answer.
“At that time, I was still in the company, the incident was also heard from Uncle Ming, Zi Mei indeed drank the lily silver ear porridge to be poisoned, and the chef and Uncle Ming have no suspicion of poisoning, Uncle Ming said that he met Luo Yi when delivering the porridge, stayed for a while, Luo Yi also lifted the lid to see the porridge inside, I think it was this child who moved.”
“But what he wanted to put was just laxative, as for why it turned into strychnine, I have no way of knowing, I still hope that Uncle Ye will figure it out before making a judgment.”
Luo Yi raised his head and looked at Luo Rui Xi, he stood behind Luo Rui Xi, he couldn’t see Luo Rui Xi’s expression, but he knew that this man must have a firm face right now, it was trust in him, unconditional trust.
“Hmph, are you shirking your responsibility? What else do you need to figure out about this matter?”
Ye Yuanchang narrowed his eyes falsely, dissatisfied with Luo Rui Xi’s answer. The other party was too honest instead, leaving him somewhat without a way to spread his fire, a fist hitting a soft pillow, how could it not be pleasurable.
“Uncle Ye, I didn’t even tell half a lie, so how could I shirk my responsibility?”
Being looked at by Luo Ruixi’s innocent eyes, Ye Yuanchang’s face was ugly, it seemed that he was being carried away by this junior ah.
On second thought, Ye Yuanchang stood up and grabbed Luo Yi’s collar.
“My judgment is that the drug was given by him, I want to send him to the police station.”
Other people have confessed, there is no reason for him not to fulfill it, his Ye Yuanchang’s daughter is not something that everyone can bully. This morning when he received the phone call from Zi Mei crying he should have rushed back to teach this uneducated child a lesson, originally thought it was just a child’s mischievous prank, but didn’t think it would come to this, if Zi Mei really died, what face would he have to live with.
Seeing Ye Yuanchang making a move on Luo Yi, Luo Ruixi immediately protected Luo Yi behind him like a mother hen protecting her chicks. Gathering up the deference on her face, she looked at Ye Yuanchang with cold eyes.
“Luo Yi’s laxative was given to him by me, what was filled inside was indeed just a diarrhea medicine to make people run to the toilet a few more times, if Uncle Ye insists on going to the police station, just bring me there, it has nothing to do with Luo Yi.”
Xiao Qin said that he gave the diarrhea medicine to Luo Yi, and that he would be responsible if anything happened. How could he put the blame on him? He, Luo Rui Xi, would be responsible for protecting Luo Yi, he was his sole guardian.
“Luo Ruixi what are you talking about? Are you crazy?”
Unable to remain silent any longer, Luo Yi pulled over Luo Rui Xi’s arm and made him look at himself, Luo Rui Xi glared at him and warned him to shut up.
“You’re the one who shut up, what are you babbling about?”
I know you’re being protective, but I don’t want this kind of protection, I don’t want to die!
“The medicine was prepared by me, it was also me who gave it, I just couldn’t stand to see her, I wanted to see her make a fool of herself, I didn’t poison her, even if you sent me to the police station I would still say the same thing.”
Ignoring Luo Ruixi to stop Luo Yi spoke forcefully word by word, his silence doesn’t mean that he is repenting and feeling guilty, he just doesn’t want to give Luo Ruixi trouble, saying more is more wrong, but Luo Ruixi would actually do such a stupid thing, how can he just sit back and do nothing?
“Good, very good, then we’ll go to the police station this time, I’d like to see kid how hard this mouth of yours is.”
Ye Yuanchang was so angry that he was blowing his beard and eyes, his jade trigger finger was about to be crushed.
“No way!”
Luo Ruixi blocked between the two, exasperatedly glaring at Luo Yi before looking at Ye Yuanchang and sinking his aura.
“Uncle Ye, even if you don’t care about the friendship between the two Ye Luo families, at least give me some face, are you prepared to give up on the two big cases we’re still working together on?”
“Are you threatening me? Good boy, what face to mention to me, you are giving me enough face!”
Ye Yuanchang reddened his face, Luo Ruixi knew that he was making a break for it and would capsize if he wasn’t careful, even so he would rather go into the water with Luo Yi than let him suffer alone.
“I called you as soon as Zi Mei had an accident and didn’t half hide it, this is my respect for you, but you indiscriminately want to send Luo Yi to the police station, this is your disrespect for me.”
“You guys admitted with your mouths that the medicine was given by this kid, and now you’re saying that I’m indiscriminate, Luo Ruixi, good boy, you tell me who’s being indiscriminate, you tell me a reason!”
Apologies flashed across his face, Luo Yi gave Ye Zimei a laxative which was their fault in the first place, but Luo Ruixi didn’t want to compromise, he couldn’t bear the thought of Luo Yi being taken to the police station, even if this could help clear Luo Yi of the charge of poisoning, he didn’t want to, it wasn’t a place that Luo Yi should have gone to.
It didn’t matter if he tore his face off with the Ye family.
“The laxative was switched, during the daytime Luo family apart from the user only the two Ye family misses were there, Uncle Ye if you have to make a big deal out of it, I’m afraid that the ones who will end up having a bad time will be your daughters.”
Ye Yuanchang’s eyes widened, he somewhat doubted his ears.
“Don’t you give an inch.”
“I just hope that Uncle Ye will be spared.”
“As long as you don’t pursue this matter, I, Luo Rui Xi, can unconditionally agree to whatever compensation you want.”
“You’re helping this child cover up a crime? Don’t blame me as an elder for not reminding you that indulging a child who hasn’t grown up too much isn’t loving him, it’s harming him.”
Luo Yi wanted to speak, but Luo Ruixi tugged on his hand.
“Little thing, please, give me a chance to protect you.”
This whispered request softened all of Luo Yi’s hostility and silently chose to stand behind Luo Rui Xi.
“Uncle Ye you are wrong, my Luo Yi did not commit a crime, he is punishing the adults who don’t know what they are doing in a childish way, it’s true that the method is childish and radical a little bit, but I support him and say that the indulgence, those words of Uncle Ye should be said to yourself, Zi Mei is indeed spoilt by you guys, I don’t think it’s possible that you guys haven’t heard of all those good things that she’s done, right? I know that saying so will make you unhappy, but Luo Yi will make bad things to her I am tacitly agreeing, because Zi Mei once hurt Luo Yi’s best friend, you also know, is the Wei family’s girl, even last time, he also humiliated that kid face to face. A sixteen year old kid having to help his best friend out, I don’t really think it’s a bad thing, there’s no way for a man without righteousness to become a man.”
With a strong tone Luo Ruixi word is clear, eight years ago he missed, missed many times, so all these years he is reflecting, those things that made Luo Yi cried he has thought over and over again, and then will not repeat.
What Luo Yi wanted was unconditional trust, so he gave it to him.
“I also know that we are also at fault, so I am willing to make compensation, I heard that Uncle Ye likes that piece of land in the East District very much, it just so happens that my little nephew bought that place some time ago ……”
Then make a step back, Luo Rui Xi softened his tone, the meaning of the words is very obvious, Ye Yuanchang had to be moved, but he did not want to just let it go, wavering.
Luo Rui Xi again and again, coercion always need a little fierce material.
“If Uncle Ye insists on making a big deal out of this, then I don’t mind the fish dying.”
Although he was smiling, Luo Rui Xi’s eyes did not have the slightest hint of laughter, he wasn’t talking about playing around.
The result was predictable, Ye Yuanchang finally made a compromise, and the piece of prime land in Luo Ruixi’s hand was transferred to Ye Yuanchang’s name.
This time, Xiao Qin should not blame me …….
“It’s okay, I’ll send you home to rest, tired.”
As soon as Ye Yuanchang left Luo Ruixi relaxed, inexplicably feeling a little dizzy.
“Xiao Xi ……”
“It’s okay, I know it’s not your fault, even though you didn’t keep your agreement with me, I can understand your feelings, it’s me, I would have done the same.”
Stroking Luo Yi’s hair Luo Ruixi smiled gently, his eyes looked at Luo Yi’s, there wasn’t a sentence that didn’t come from the heart.
“But having grown so tall and still being backstabbed, it’s really embarrassing.”
Originally a joke to regulate the atmosphere, Luo Ruixi saw Luo Yi darken her face, it wouldn’t be so coincidental to step on a thunderbolt, would it?
“Luo Yi I’m just having fun ……”
‘Laughing’ word was swallowed by Luo Yi into his mouth, tugging Luo Rui Xi tie Luo Yi kissed his lips, tongue licked his lips, his teeth, and then straight into the dragon, the two tongues fought with each other.
Luo Ruixi, the person who will protect you in the future is definitely me.
