"Go back! We'll inform you when there's news." The policewoman said to him with a smile, not taking what he said seriously at all.

Zhiyuan returned to the island that night, but Qinglang found a stack of money under the quilt of the hospital bed. All of them were ten-yuan notes wrapped in a piece of paper with a few words written on the paper: buy food.

Just three simple words, without any extra sentences or touching words to bring tears to people's eyes, but they made Qinglang's eyes warm.

Zhiyuan returned to the island. Lin Qingping baked his favorite desserts and cooked delicious dishes. As soon as he entered the house, Lin Qingping invited him to eat, as if nothing had happened and he just came back from school as usual.

"Brother is back..." Lin Qingping picked up Zhangzhu who was sleeping in the cradle and said softly.

Zhangzhu smiled, revealing her pink, toothless gums, which was very adorable.

Zhiyuan's eyes were hot, "Mom, I'll go wash my hands first and then come back to hug my sister."

He said he washed his hands, but actually he just took a shower and changed the clothes he had been wearing outside all day before hugging his sister.

He was young and it was not convenient for him to carry his sister around with him, for fear that he would accidentally drop her. He only dared to sit on the sofa, with his sister in his arms, smiling and playing with bubbles.

"Mom, my sister is the most beautiful child I have ever seen!" He held his sister carefully, not daring to move.

"How many children have you seen? This is the most beautiful one?" Lin Qingping smiled and took the palm bead from him. "Hurry up and eat!"

"That's right." Zhiyuan emphasized seriously, "Dad Gu hasn't come back yet!"

"He has a meeting today, so let's not wait for him. You eat first. I just ate a piece of bread and I'm not hungry." Lin Qingping said.

Zhiyuan held the bowl of rice and didn't touch his chopsticks for a long time.

"Silly child." Lin Qingping said, "Do you have something to say to me?"

Zhiyuan nodded, put down the bowl, and told her everything about Qinglang, including everything that happened in the ward today.

"Mom, I lent you the money. I will definitely pay it back when I can earn money." Zhiyuan said in a low voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhiyuan felt a pain in his head.

He had his head down originally, but now he felt pain, so he looked up and found that his mother had hit him hard on the head with chopsticks, and there was still anger on his mother's face.

"You have such a pedantic head, I might as well knock it silly!" Lin Qingping scolded him.

Zhiyuan was scolded and dared not say a word.

Lin Qingping continued, "You are my son! I raised you, and you ask me to pay you back? What are you going to pay back? How much do you have to pay back?"

Zhiyuan lowered his head, silently calculating things in his mind. Just as he was about to speak, he was hit on the head again.

"Next time you say the word 'return' to me, get out of here! I only raise my own children, not outsiders who want to repay a favor!"

This one sentence woke up Zhiyuan, who was still calculating how much he needed to repay the kindness of his father Gu and his mother.

Zhiyuan's eyes turned red and he choked up, "Mom..."

"Don't call me mom!" Lin Qingping frowned and looked angry.

"Mom..." Zhiyuan smiled, but tears fell, "You are my mom, I will call you, Mom, Mom, Mom!"

"Naughty kid!" Lin Qingping was amused by him, "It seems that the child needs to be beaten. My son almost ran away after three days of not being beaten."

Zhiyuan held out his handboard and motioned for her to hit him as she pleased.

But she just patted his hand lightly and said, "Okay, given the situation at Qinglang's house, since his mother is out of danger, I'm afraid he will have to face more than just his mother's injuries."

Zhiyuan frowned, "Are you still afraid that those people will continue to retaliate?"

"That's one thing. There's another thing. If a person doesn't change himself, no matter how hard others try, it will be in vain. As for Qinglang's family, let's wait and see after his mother wakes up." This was exactly the same experience as her previous life. She had dedicated her entire life to her younger brother and had countless opportunities to wake up, but she chose to continue deceiving herself because of the four words "blood relationship".

I don’t know if Qinglang’s mother will become another her. Only until death will she understand that some people are not worth helping, and some family ties are not worth maintaining.

But when Zhiyuan, Chen Lei and Wang Yufei went to see Qinglang Niang again, the bed was empty.

After asking the nurse, they found out that Qinglang's mother had been discharged from the hospital.

"Is she fully recovered?" Zhiyuan was surprised. Wasn't this too fast?

The nurse sighed, "What good is that! Her family members insist on her being discharged, and she herself strongly requests to be discharged. We have no choice."

"What family? Those people are not good people!" Chen Lei shouted.

When Zhiyuan heard this, he went to Qinglang's house.

Qinglang's home was on a boat. Zhiyuan had been here with Chen Lei and others before. They found the boat easily, but Qinglang and his mother were not there. Only Qinglang's father was there.

Early in the morning, Qinglang's father was drunk. When Zhiyuan asked Qinglang where he had been, instead of getting an answer, he was cursed. The curse was dirty and ugly. Chen Lei almost rushed up to beat him up, but was stopped by Zhiyuan.
