Chapter 104 Pshaw, delusions, they need to be cured.
"So, you and him didn't actually have that kind of romantic relationship at all, right?"
He Wenxuan stared intently at Su Qianqian, a hint of helplessness and sadness in his eyes. He frowned slightly and asked Su Qianqian a question in a heavy tone.
Upon hearing this, Su Qianqian instinctively wanted to refute He Wenxuan, but when she opened her mouth, she found herself speechless.
Indeed, on the surface, she and Shen Xiujin had not officially established a romantic relationship, but in her heart, their feelings for each other had long since transcended the boundaries of ordinary friends.
She recalled every moment she spent with Shen Xiujin, those warm and sweet instants, all of which proved the special feelings between them.
Although neither of them said it aloud, in Su Qianqian's heart, she and Shen Xiujin were already as intimate as lovers. And if a man and a woman had reached that level of intimacy, didn't that prove they were lovers?
If Zhou Jingyao hadn't suddenly appeared and interfered, she and Shen Xiujin would have been together long ago and announced their relationship.
However, just as she was immersed in her memories, He Wenxuan's next words were like a bucket of cold water poured over her head.
"That's just wishful thinking on your part that you have some kind of relationship with Shen Xiujin. In reality, has Shen Xiujin ever admitted it to you personally?"
Besides, the person he's always been in love with is Zhou Jingyao! They not only love each other, but they've even met each other's parents and gained their families' approval...
He Wenxuan slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and continued in a deep voice, "Su Qianqian, don't you understand yet?"
A true romantic relationship is one where people are willing to introduce each other to their family and friends, letting everyone know of each other's existence!
If you like someone, you should bravely announce it to the world, declaring that this person belongs only to you. However, you didn't do that. It was just one-sided, wishful thinking on your part; it was nothing more than unrequited love. Unrequited love, do you understand?
[Pah! What kind of unrequited love is this?]
[She's mentally ill; she's clearly suffering from delusions. She needs treatment immediately!]
He Wenxuan couldn't help but look at Jiang Mianmian and glared at her fiercely. Today, he felt that Shen Xiujin's mother was really infuriating and annoying; why was she everywhere?
Jiang Mianmian, however, seemed completely unaffected, smiling broadly as she stated:
[Hey, you idiot, why are you glaring at me like that? I'm just an innocent bystander quietly watching the drama unfold!]
Hearing Jiang Mianmian's sarcastic words, He Wenxuan gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do. After all, she was Shen Xiujin's mother, and in terms of seniority, she could be considered his elder.
As a junior, he couldn't very well argue with his elders, so he could only let out a heavy snort and say coldly, "Let's go!"
At this moment, his only thought was to get Su Qianqian away from this shameful place as soon as possible, because the two of them were a huge embarrassment.
Moreover, he was thinking that if Su Qianqian really did have the kind of illness that Shen Xiujin's mother had mentioned.
He needs to take her to the best clinic right now, so she doesn't delay her treatment because she's afraid to see a doctor. Otherwise, she might cause trouble for others in the future!
When he saw Shen Xiujin looking at Su Qianqian, he looked as if he had seen a monstrous flood. His face showed fear, and his body unconsciously retreated, as if he wished he could immediately put a distance of 108,000 miles between himself and her.
At that moment, he instantly understood that, apart from himself, probably no one else here was willing to pay any attention to Su Qianqian.
"Come on, where are we going? Didn't you say you were here to help me get an explanation from Shen Xiujin? We haven't even figured this out yet, how can we just leave like this!"
"Hey! Don't pull me... Shen Xiujin hasn't severed ties with that woman yet, we can't leave now!"
Su Qianqian was forcefully pulled out of the private room by He Wenxuan, but she still shouted unwillingly, kicking her feet incessantly, trying to break free from He Wenxuan's restraint.
However, He Wenxuan held her wrist tightly, refusing to let go, and dragged her away from the upstairs private room. Even so, they could still hear Su Qianqian's unwilling and resentful voice.
[Oh, what a pity! It wasn't enough at all, I didn't get to see enough!]
Jiang Mianmian looked regretful and muttered to herself. To be fair, the juicy gossip about Su Qianqian was quite interesting, much more exciting than what happened to her second son.
In this storyline, Shen Xiujin is undoubtedly a complete "victim".
But Su Qianqian is different. Wherever she goes, she causes a series of astonishing events. She's practically a female protagonist with a natural talent for gossip.
Shen Xiujin's lips twitched slightly, and he thought to himself: What, does Mother really want that Su Qianqian to stay here and hope that she will continue to harm me?
Thinking about what happened after meeting Su Qianqian today, Shen Xiujin couldn't help but feel annoyed. Look at his arm! That idiot bit him so hard! This whole mess is infuriating!
"Ouch... Oh my god, that really hurts!"
Shen Xiujin, clutching his injured arm, frowned and complained. Now that he had recovered, the wound was still incredibly painful. He asked Jiang Mianmian:
"Mother, look at me now, shouldn't we go see a doctor right away?"
Hearing Shen Xiu's words, Jiang Mianmian, who was standing to the side, quickly nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, yes, second brother, you should go to the clinic and get a good check-up right now."
I've heard that bite wounds can sometimes become infected; you'd better find a skilled doctor to take a good look at you.
At this moment, Li Tingxue, who was standing to the side, suddenly showed a look of horror and exclaimed, "What? There is such a thing? Can you get that terrible madness if you are bitten?"
"Oh dear, what should I do? My son Haochen was bitten by Lord Liu's grandson before. Should I quickly write a letter and have it sent back to our hometown by fast horse so my younger brother can take him to see a doctor immediately?"
Jiang Mianmian shook her head helplessly and waved her hands, saying, "Oh, really, there's no need to be so nervous! Kids are just kids, it's normal for them to play around, scratch or bite each other occasionally, why be so delicate?"
I don't think there should be any major problems. If you're still worried, we can write to you as soon as we get home to ask how things are going.
He Wenxuan, who had just left, frankly, probably wasn't even sure if he had been bitten when he was a child. After all, he was young then, and many things were long gone from his memory.
Suddenly, Shen Xiujin exclaimed, "Ah, He Wenxuan... damn it..."
His face turned deathly pale instantly, as if he had remembered something extremely terrifying.
It turned out that he vaguely remembered that He Wenxuan's father had once jokingly mentioned that He Wenxuan had been bitten on the buttock by a dog when he was a child.
He did indeed take a curious look when He Wenxuan was taking a shower, and there were indeed two small scars on his buttocks!
Oh no, oh no, oh no, this is terrible!
Could he have contracted rabies?
Upon realizing this, Shen Xiujin panicked and, without saying a word, immediately took off running towards the clinic.
He ran so fast that the others only saw a fleeting afterimage, leaving the people in the room completely bewildered.
Not long after, Shen Xiujin arrived at the most prestigious medical clinic in the capital, Ji'an Hall, by carriage.
He rushed into the clinic, shouting for the best doctor to come and treat his wounds, and most importantly, to see if he had contracted rabies.
After the doctor worked hard, he finally managed to bandage his wound properly.
Once Shen Xiujin was certain he wouldn't contract rabies, his anxiety subsided. However, the old doctor still prescribed him a medicine to heal his wounds and told him to get the medicine and drink it for a few days.
Shen Xiujin looked at the dozen or so packets of medicinal herbs that Ba Liang was carrying and prepared to get up and leave the clinic.
Unexpectedly, just as he turned around, he bumped right into He Wenxuan, who had just come out of the cubicle.
Upon seeing this simpleton, Shen Xiujin immediately thought of that plague god and muttered to himself, "What an unlucky day! How did I end up running into this guy here!"
Shen Xiujin raised his tightly bandaged arm and deliberately waved it in front of He Wenxuan, while angrily shouting:
"See that? Look at my arm! It's all because of you! Not only am I injured, but I was also forced to buy several packets of medicine to treat being bitten by rabid dogs!"
Upon hearing this, He Wenxuan glared fiercely at Shen Xiujin and pointed at him, saying, "Shen Xiujin, what do you mean by that? Are you implying that I'm a dog?"
Seeing this, Shen Xiujin revealed a sly smile and replied sarcastically, "Oh dear, that's hard to say~ Maybe! After all, some things can't be forgotten just by wanting to."
Your dad told me you were bitten on the butt by a dog when you were little! So, who can guarantee you haven't caught rabies now?
Now that you've bitten me like this, I naturally have to be extra careful, just in case! Of course, I'll have to find the best doctor in the capital to take a look at me!
"Hey! Why are you acting so strangely today? You even bit me out of the blue! Are you having a relapse? And tell me what's wrong!"
Ever since I met her, haven't I been incredibly unlucky? Look at my arm, you bit it so badly it's a mess, and now I have to pay for medical treatment here out of my own pocket—that's another huge expense!
While deliberately complaining, Shen Xiujin pointed to the bite wound with his finger, looking quite infuriating.
He Wenxuan “…”
However, faced with Shen Xiujin's barrage of accusations and questions, He Wenxuan gritted his teeth in anger, glaring at Shen Xiujin's departing figure. Finally, he couldn't help but stomp his foot to vent his anger.
Just then, He Wenxuan seemed to suddenly remember something and muttered to himself, "Strange, how come I have no recollection of ever being bitten by a dog?"
And my dad too, why did he have to bring this up with Shen Xiujin for no reason? Now look what happened, I've been thoroughly mocked and ridiculed by that despicable guy for no reason!
The more He Wenxuan thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. He then turned his head to look at the clinic's cubicle, thinking about Su Qianqian, whom he had just half-pushed and half-coaxed to see the doctor.
For some reason, when He Wenxuan went in again and saw Su Qianqian, he felt a chill run down his spine and shivered involuntarily.
