Chapter 193 - 189: Exposing Faults
Two hours later, several people gathered in the hospital ward, in a two-person room, where a few girls were either sitting or standing around a bed, talking.
The one lying in the bed was Xiao Chong, with his lower leg in plaster hoisted up on the other side, his face a colorful mosaic, smeared with iodine and mercurochrome.
Li Xianglu said guiltily, "Xiao Chong, I’m sorry, it’s my fault that you got hurt. Look at your face; even your mom wouldn’t recognize you, right?"
Xiao Chong tried to speak, but the pain was unbearable whenever he opened his mouth. Frustrated, he gestured with his hand to express his anger.
Iro, standing nearby, chuckled and patted Li Xianglu, "Alright, enough teasing. He’s already like this. Don’t provoke her anymore."
Lu Anna, who was peeling an apple, cut the peeled apple into small slices, placed them on a plate, and set it within Xiao Chong’s reach.
Tears welled up in Xiao Chong’s eyes as he whispered a soft "Thank you!"
Lu Anna let out a sigh and said, "Xiao Chong, you chose not to ignore the danger at the critical moment. Actually, you didn’t have to come yesterday, but you did, and you got hurt. If it weren’t for you distracting those people, Xiao Xiang and I would have been in big trouble." She took Xiao Chong’s hand earnestly and said, "Thank you!"
Xiao Chong’s mouth was injured, and it hurt terribly to even smile, but hearing Lu Anna’s words made her happy. She had done the right thing and could now return to the group. Although the cost was heavy, she had proven with her actions that she had changed.
Xu Xin couldn’t stop shaking his head, "How could Li Dayu do such a thing? We could say we’re from the same dorm, yet she betrayed someone just for a few words from her boyfriend."
