Xiao Rong remained silent on his sickbed.

Xiao You tried several times to open the ward door to see what was happening, but she failed to do so.

It wasn't because she didn't want to open it. The driver of the Xiao Family told her not to do it.

She had irritated Xiao Chengye due to the fire at the Institute.

Xiao Chengye would dislike her more if she was found eavesdropping on him.

The driver Lao He consoled her, "Just wait a little longer, Miss Xiao."

Xiao You gritted her teeth, "I wonder how this b*st*rd is trash-talking me."

"He is mute and unable to trash-talk you, Miss Xiao." Lao He said.

He tried his best to relieve Xiao You.

However, Xiao You still felt uncomfortable.

She couldn't help looking the other way.

Then, she caught sight of Gu Baisheng and Zhang Kai coming here hurriedly down the hall.

Qu Xiaobo saw Gu Baisheng and Zhang Kai and called Gu Baisheng, "Shengsheng."

Gu Baisheng also saw Xiao You at the door of Xiao Rong's ward and knew what Qu Xiaobo meant, so she didn't walk towards Xiao Rong's ward.

Instead, she stopped in front of Qu Xiaobo and Hu Hui.

Hu Hui didn't blame her immediately when she saw Gu Baisheng. She just looked at Zhang Kai and said, "Thank you for giving her a lift."

"You're welcome. It's on my route." Zhang Kai said.

He said this out of courtesy.

Nevertheless, Qu Xiaobo could see from their conversation that Hu Hui knew much about this matter.

Then, she winked at Gu Baisheng and hinted that she shouldn't talk too much about Xiao Rong.

Gu Baisheng knew what Qu Xiaobo meant.

But she still worried that the Xiao Family would do something in Xiao Rong's ward.

Thus, she hesitated for a while and stood up, "Excuse me."

"Where are you going?"

Hu Hui asked like she knew what Gu Baisheng wanted to do.

Gu Baisheng said, "I'd like to go to the restroom."

Actually, she wanted to fetch a doctor to see what was happening to Xiao Rong.

Xiao Chengye and Han Lu came here as soon as Xiao Rong woke up this morning.

She had no idea how they would insult Xiao Rong.

Hu Hui also stood up, "I'll go with you."

Gu Baisheng felt ill at ease as she heard Hu Hui's words.

She couldn't fetch a doctor if Hu Hui went with her.

Qu Xiaobo pressed her lips with mixed feelings.

She gestured for Gu Baisheng to go with Hu Hui and she would fetch a doctor to take a look at Xiao Rong instead.

Gu Baisheng nodded and went to the restroom with Hu Hui.

As Hu Hui washed her hands in the restroom, she looked at Gu Baisheng in the mirror and said, "Don't you think that the fire is strange?"

Gu Baisheng knew that Hu Hui was referring to the fire at the Institute. She said, "The police are investigating its cause."

"I've seen a piece of news saying that the fire was caused by the circuit aging at school," Hu Hui said.

"Yes," Gu Baisheng answered casually.

"But the Xiao Family have done so many things before. Do you believe that explanation?"

Hu Hui asked calmly.

Gu Baisheng's fingers froze for a moment when she was washing her hands.

She understood Hu Hui.

"I know the Xiao Family is, terrible." Gu Baisheng said.

She knew that Hu Hui was asking her not to help Xiao Rong anymore.

However, she couldn't do it.

"I've talked to you many times." Hu Hui said.

"Despite that, I'll still help Xiao Rong," Gu Baisheng said.

She would help others to the end.

It was impossible for her to give up halfway.

Gu Baisheng turned around to look at Hu Hui and said, "I've also said this to Song Shuang. I'm sorry."

Hu Hui frowned and sighed resignedly, "You're so stubborn, kid."

...

Inside the ward.

Xiao Rong was bored with Xiao Chengye and Han Lu's fake concern and closed his eyes for a while.

Han Lu said considerately, "Darling, I think Xiao Rong must be tired. Perhaps we can just leave now and come to visit him tomorrow."

Xiao Chengye nodded and said to the maid beside him, "Stay here and take care of Xiao Rong, Li."

Xiao Rong's eyes were half-open. He looked at that woman who had worked for Han Lu for many years and was not grateful.

Li would probably tell Han Lu about everything he did if she stayed in the hospital and cared for him.

At this thought, Xiao Rong raised his hand.

Xiao Chengye noticed his gesture and asked immediately, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Xiao Rong shook his head slightly.

"What do you want?"

Xiao Chengye asked.

Xiao Rong pointed at Li and waved his hand.

Then, Xiao Chengye and Han Lu understood him.

Xiao Rong was saying that he didn't want Li to stay here.

Han Lu squeezed her handkerchief, but she thought there was no hurry to cozy up to Xiao Rong. Then, she said, "Since Xiao Rong doesn't want Li to stay here, Li should leave."

"But no one can take care of him." Xiao Chengye said.

He seemed to indulge in his character of a loving father.

He felt worried about leaving his son alone in the hospital.

Han Lu smiled, "The doctor and nurse will care for him, and..."

Han Lu looked out of the door thoughtfully.

Xiao Chengye didn't quite understand her.

Han Lu said candidly, "Somebody will take better care of Xiao Rong."

Xiao Chengye frowned, "Bai Shengsheng?"

Han Lu nodded.

Xiao Chengye was displeased, "Let Fei take care of him after arriving home. What's the reason for always asking other people to take care of my son?"

Xiao Chengye knew that Bai Shengsheng was Song Shuang's wife.

He was unwilling to have anything to do with the Song Family.

He didn't want anyone of the Song Family to take care of Xiao Rong, either.

Otherwise, it seemed that the Xiao Family didn't care about Xiao Rong and lived off the Song Family's charity.

Han Lu nodded, "I'll ask Fei to come here."

Fei was a new maid in the Xiao Family.

She was suitable for the job of caring for Xiao Rong.

Xiao Chengye arranged a person to take care of Xiao Rong.

Then, he tucked Xiao Rong in and said, "Don't worry. I'll never send you to the institute again after you recover."

Han Lu raised her eyebrows.

Xiao You was also a little surprised.

Seeing that Xiao Rong was surprised, Xiao Chengye continued, "I'll bring you home when you're discharged from the hospital. You won't be ill-treated again from now on."

Xiao Rong looked at Xiao Chengye and seemed unable to tell whether he was sincere.

Han Lu smiled as she heard Xiao Chengye's words and suddenly felt relieved.

As expected, Xiao Chengye listened to her suggestions after this fire.

He would bring Xiao Rong back to restrain Xiao You.

The Xiao Family would be “lively” in the future.

Han Lu felt happy, and her look also showed her good mood when she left Xiao Rong's ward with Xiao Chengye.

Seeing the happy look on Han Lu's face, Xiao You felt that there was something wrong.

When they went back home by car, she asked, "What makes you so happy, mom?"

Han Lu took a look at Xiao Chengye and smiled, "Your dad will bring Xiao Rong home after he recovers and will never send him to the institute again."

Xiao You's face fell and looked embarrassed.

However, she couldn't lose her temper before Xiao Chengye, so she asked with a forced smile, "Is that true, dad?"

When asked, Xiao Chengye nodded in a sullen look and said implying something, "Yes."

Xiao You narrowed her eyes. No wonder that the bi*chy Han Lu looked so happy.

Then, Xiao Chengye added, "I only have two children, you and Xiao Rong. As you can't take care of all the businesses of the Xiao Family, Xiao Rong can help you when he's grown up."

Han Lu almost laughed when she heard this.

Xiao You, however, was so anxious that she clutched her skirt and clenched her fists.

What did Xiao Chengye mean?

He not only wanted to bring back that disabled Xiao Rong but would also let him run the businesses of the Xiao Family.

Xiao Chengye was actually trying to support Xiao Rong instead of helping her.

Xiao You was inwardly furious, but she didn't show it.

After all, Xiao Chengye was unsatisfied because the money he donated to the institute was embezzled.

Thus, he wouldn't listen to her even if she refused to bring Xiao Rong back to the Xiao Family.

Seeing Xiao Chengye's and Xiao You's expressions, Han Lu looked out of the window and couldn't help smiling.

In the hospital. Hu Hui sighed as she knew she couldn't dissuade the persistent Gu Baisheng from doing so.

Gu Baisheng also knew that she made Hu Hui worried, so she held Hu Hui's arm gently and said, "Don't worry, Auntie Hu. I won't get involved in other things except for taking care of Xiao Rong. Besides, Xiao Rong won't be in my care forever. He will grow up soon."

Hu Hui nodded wearily, "I hope so."

Gu Baisheng and Hu Hui left the restroom.

Qu Xiaobo fetched a doctor to see Xiao Rong.

Luckily, when the doctor arrived at Xiao Rong's ward, Xiao Chengye and his wife had left with Xiao You and other people.

After examining Xiao Rong, the doctor told Qu Xiaobo that Xiao Rong was in good condition.

All he needed was a good rest. The doctor also thought that a skin graft was not necessary after seeing Xiao Rong's burn wound.

He said the wound would probably heal up by itself.

But a few more days of recovery were needed to decide whether a skin graft was necessary.

After seeing the doctor off, Qu Xiaobo told Gu Baisheng what the doctor said.

Gu Baisheng walked up to the bed and looked at Xiao Rong, "Are you feeling better today?"

Xiao Rong nodded and mouthed that he was much better.

Qu Xiaobo, Hu Hui, and Zhang Kai all stood beside them.

Xiao Rong looked at them and pointed at Gu Baisheng.

Then, Gu Baisheng said, "Let me talk with him alone."

Qu Xiaobo went out with Hu Hui and Zhang Kai.

When Gu Baisheng left in the ward by herself, Xiao Rong moved his fingers and said in sign language, "My father came to see me."

"I know," Gu Baisheng knew that, "Did he say anything?"

"He said he would bring me back to the Xiao Family after I recover." Xiao Rong answered.

Gu Baisheng stared at him, "Do you want to go back?"

"I want to go to Gui Town. Everyone in the Xiao Family wants to harm me," Xiao Rong gestured.

Gu Baisheng made the decision of going to Gui Town for him. Now, Xiao Chengye wanted to bring him home, but he was still willing to do what Gu Baisheng had planned for him.

That showed his trust in Gu Baisheng.

Gu Baisheng nodded, "I'll help you."

Xiao Rong also nodded.
