Chapter 258: So That’s How It Is
Only the state of mind had utterly changed. Su Lu had always been indifferent to the unkindness of Zhu Xinyan and her daughter. He had grown accustomed to it over the years.
But to say it didn’t affect his emotions would be impossible.
Yet now, it genuinely didn’t affect his emotions, he could even manage a smile in response. Frankly, he even found it rather amusing.
Was it because he was getting older, increasingly able to take various attitudes in stride? Or was it because he knew he had true family support behind him, giving him the strength to face any attitude fearlessly?
Su Lu smiled in a relaxed and casual manner, his smile carefree and even carried a teasing tone, catching Zhu Xinyan and Su Jiao by surprise.
"Ah... ah!" Su Yukan on the hospital bed made several meaningless sounds, his expression turning slightly agitated.
It was unclear whether it was Su Lu’s presence or the conversation between Zhu Xinyan and Su Jiao that was bothering him.
All the while, his mouth barely moved... enough to only utter a few nonsensical syllables, with drool slipping down from the corners.
Zhu Xinyan glanced at him, subtly furrowing her brow, her eyes flashing briefly with disgust. She turned to Su Jiao, "Where’s the caretaker? What is she doing that she isn’t here? Wasn’t she just here?"
"I’ll go call her. And see if Lawyer Zheng is here yet." Su Jiao turned and left the room.
Su Yukan, on the hospital bed, his eyes cloudy, looked at Zhu Xinyan and struggled to speak, "You... ah... go also."
