Chapter 491 - 486: Going Back to Hometown Troublesome Matter 21 [Explosive Update 15]
——————
Fan Feng Shou pondered deeply and felt that even though he was insignificant, he still should not completely fall out with his older brother. After calming his anger, he rubbed his aching mouth corner and carefully said:
"Big brother, about the past, I was young and ignorant. Please forgive me this time as an adult with a large heart!"
Fan Jiefang didn’t even want to respond. If it weren’t for the worry that his younger sister might again be persuaded and manipulated by their mother, he would have left already.
He shook his head with a sigh. As for what Fan Feng Shou said, Fan Jiefang didn’t believe a word.
Undeterred, Fan Feng Shou continued, "Big brother, the matter concerning adopting Xiao Xianzi was always mother’s own idea. I had some thoughts, but Xiao Xia was unwilling. Just a couple of days ago, Baozhen fell ill with a high fever, so I didn’t have time to discuss it with you..."
Seeing that his brother listened and glanced at him, Fan Feng Shou felt hopeful and continued making efforts to absolve himself of blame:
"As for today, it really wasn’t that I didn’t go to find mother. Right after younger sister hung up the phone with me, Xiao Xia called me, telling me that Baozhen was beaten at school!
As soon as I heard that, I rushed to the school to understand the situation. You didn’t see it; Baozhen’s face was swollen like a pig’s head. She had just recovered from her illness, and being beaten like that, she got deeply distressed and immediately developed a fever.
It just so happened that today mom went to Eldest Aunt’s place, and Xiao Xia had returned to her parent’s home. The school couldn’t find anyone at home..."
After listening to all this, when he heard his grandniece had been beaten, Fan Jiefang still got worried for a moment, but then remembering that it was Fan Feng Shou’s own misconduct that nearly wrecked his family, his sympathy dissipated.
