Chapter 40: Chapter 40 The Reason for Jiang Ru’s Broken Leg
While Song Xingxing was bawling, Jiang Yi led Nan Nan out of the barbecue shop. There was an ice cream shop not far away. There was a rocking car at the door, and many children were playing.
“Do you want to eat ice cream?” Jiang Yi asked Nan Nan.
The little girl nodded, and Jiang Yi bought her a strawberry-flavored ice cream.
“Aunty left something in the shop just now. Wait for me here, I’ll go get it.”
“Okay, then can I play with the rocking car?”
Jiang Yi carried her into the rocking car and stuffed a few coins into it.
Seeing the little girl happily licking the ice cream, her dark almond-shaped eyes were cold. She patted Nan Nan’s little head, turned around, and left..
When she entered the barbecue shop, she saw Song Rao staring expressionlessly at Song Xingxing who was sobbing. His eyes were cold, elegant, and refined. There was an inexplicable sense of dark hostility in them.
He lazily leaned against the back of the chair and clenched his hands at the corner of the table a few times. He wanted to wring the little rascal’s neck and shut his mouth.
When he noticed that Jiang Yi had returned, the hostility between Song Rao’s brows faded a little. He raised his eyes and smiled at her.
“Why are you back?”
“It’s none of your business.”
Jiang Yi found a seat by the window and sat down. She stared at the rocking car not far away. There was some ice cream on Nan Nan’s chubby face, and she kept giggling foolishly.
The waiter came over to ask if she wanted to order. Jiang Yi asked him, “Where’s the back door of your restaurant?”
“Over there.” The waiter pointed in a direction.
Jiang Yi said, “Got it. I won’t order for the time being.”
The waiter looked at her strangely. He thought she was waiting for a friend, so he walked away without saying anything. He even brought Jiang Yi a glass of water.
She looked at the glass of water in front of her in a daze, and her eyes turned red unconsciously.
When she had just returned to the Jiang family from Cloud Town, Jiang Yi had gone to primary school. Jiang Ru had been staying at home because of his physical disability, and Jiang Huifeng didn’t care whether he was dead or alive.
Once, Jiang Yuxiao took Jiang Ru out to play, but she came back alone at night. She deliberately threw Jiang Ru away.
She explained many times that Jiang Ru had run away when she was buying snacks.
Jiang Yi would still believe it at first, until two years later, when she and Zhuo Ya ran into Jiang Ru on the street who was covered in bruises. He had his legs broken by human traffickers and was begging.
There was a straw mat on the ground, and her brother was lying on it in a sorry state. He struggled to move his body with his hands. There was an iron bowl on the straw mat, with a bit of money inside.
They wanted to take Jiang Ru away, and someone ran out from the corner to stop them. In the end, they had to call the police to resolve these matters.
After taking Jiang Ru back to Jiang Mansion, Jiang Yuxiao did not show any joy. She even bullied him many times and stopped them from taking Jiang Ru to the hospital.
At that time, Jiang Yi knew that Jiang Yuxiao did it on purpose, deliberately throwing her brother away.
How could she not hate him!
She wanted to let Jiang Yuxiao have the taste of a broken leg!
So six years ago, she thought her brother was dead and pushed Jiang Yuxiao down the stairs in a frenzy.
Song Rao sat in his original position and looked at Jiang Yi from afar. She took a sip of water every few seconds and soon finished the glass of water. She even asked the waiter to refill her glass.
She had a mild mania. When she was agitated beyond control, she would smash things at home. However, she would not do that outside. She would only drink water continuously. When she was nervous, she would also drink water continuously.
What was Jiang Yi nervous about?
