Su Wu was taken to her room, and Mrs. Ji sat on the sofa to accompany her, fearing that Su Wu would run down and get beaten for Ji Huai.
"Mother, aren't you worried about big brother?"
Su Wu looked at Mrs. Ji who was drinking tea slowly, with doubts on her face.
Of course Mrs. Ji feels sorry for her son, but he did make a mistake, and Ji Huai will take over the entire Ji family in the future. If he makes a mistake now and does not punish him, he will inevitably lose prestige in Xiangjiang in the future.
Seeing that Mrs. Ji didn't speak, Su Wu opened the window. She couldn't get out anyway. She planned to wait for Ji Liming to finish the fight before rushing down.
For some unknown reason, Ji Liming used clever force, and the whip was extremely loud when it was struck.
Every time the whip cracked, Su Wu trembled, her face turned pale, tears hung on her long eyelashes, and fell one after another.
Mrs. Ji looked on and shook her head helplessly. Her son was a blessing in disguise.
The sound of the whip finally stopped after the fiftieth blow.
Su Wu didn't care whether she was a lady or not, and ran downstairs.
"Brother..." What came into view was Ji Huai's back covered with whip marks. Blood soaked into Ji Huai's white shirt. The fabric was shattered and some of it was embedded in Ji Huai's flesh.
Su Wu's eyes were red, her fingers were trembling, and she gently touched Ji Huai's back.
But before they even made contact, tears fell on Ji Huai's back.
Ji Huai took a breath and knew that Su Wu felt sorry for him, but he couldn't bear that Su Wu kept crying and joked: "It hurts me so much. Are you going to use your tears to disinfect your brother?" "
Hearing this, Su Wu burst into laughter.
Ji Liming watched from the side and felt that his teeth were a bit sore, so he might as well let the two of them go to the room.
"Come here, please carry the eldest son back to the room quickly."
…
Mrs. Ji had already called her family doctor, and Dr. Zhang was also professional. He used sterilized tweezers to remove the cloth embedded in the skin bit by bit, and then used alcohol cotton balls to wipe Ji Huai's back bit by bit. After the treatment, he took the medicinal powder and applied it to Ji Huai's wound, and finally wrapped it little by little with a bandage.
The whole process was as painful as the tears falling on his back, but Ji Huai didn't make a sound.
After everyone left and Ji Huai and Su Wu were left alone, Su Wu spoke.
"Brother, you lied to me."
Ji Huai sat on the bed, looked at Su Wu with red and swollen eyes, and coaxed, "How did I lie to you?"
"I just shed a few tears on your back, and you gasped in pain. Now Doctor Zhang wipes it with alcohol so hard that you don't even say a word of pain." As she said that, Su Wu shed tears again.
Hearing this, Ji Huai laughed out loud, endured the pain and reached out to wipe Su Wu's tears.
"I don't cry out because I know it's useless."
Ji Huai is the eldest son in the family and has had high hopes since he was born.
Ji Liming has been very strict with him since he was a child and often taught him that "a man should not shed tears easily".
After that, he went to study abroad. In a foreign country and an unfamiliar place, who would feel sorry for him.
Over time, he developed this habit. No matter how injured he was, he would never cry out in pain.
"That……"
Then why are you shouting pain at me?
Before Su Wu finished speaking, she heard Ji Huai say: "But the reason why I cry out in front of you is because I know someone will feel sorry for me."
As for who this "someone" specifically refers to, both of them know it well.
Looking at Ji Huai who looked serious, Su Wu blushed. She didn't expect Ji Huai to say such things at this time, "You...you...what are you talking nonsense about?"
"How do you know I'm talking nonsense?"
"I think my eldest brother was confused by his father. I won't care about you anymore." Su Wu blushed and hurried out of the room.
