Chapter 295: Hearing the Wedding News
Upon seeing Si Chen, Song Yu felt as tense as a mouse in the presence of a cat, his muscles tightened and he stiffly uttered a greeting alongside Xiaohui, "Brother."
Si Chen’s gaze swept over him briefly, resting barely a second, before returning to Si Xiaohui. With a slightly cold ’hmm’ in response. But it was unclear to whom the response was intended.
Sin Weimin, on seeing his nephew, was filled with discomfort due to Lin Fengying’s words, feeling a sense of guilt and awkwardness towards him.
The three people in the room felt a bit guilty, causing the atmosphere in the ward to freeze over momentarily. The silence was eerily quiet, causing Song Yu to hardly dare to breathe loudly.
He thought if he could win over his talented uncle, his life would be smooth sailing with a milk tea shop of his own. Unfortunately, his uncle proved impossible to please, leaving Song Yu powerless and trying hard to shrink from view.
Having been part of society for over ten years, Si Weimin quickly managed his facial expression. Seeing Xiaohui’s fear of Si Chen, he spoke up, "Xiaochen, it’s because I didn’t plan well enough when Xiaohui got into trouble, do not blame her."
Si Chen’s face was expressionless and he replied coldly, "The marriage was her choice and her body is her own. If she didn’t take it seriously, why should I blame her?"
Even as an elder brother, Si Chen could not be blunt. Through Yuan Caizhen’s hesitant expression earlier, he was somewhat able to guess the truth behind Xiaohui’s miscarriage.
Now that the people closest to Xiaohui are here, it was not his place to say anything.
"Brother, don’t you love me anymore? You don’t show any concern even though I am in this condition. Are you really my blood brother? You lost your nephew yet you are so indifferent, are you even capable of compassion?" Xiaohui’s bottom lip quivered and she barely avoided dissolving into tears.
