Li Caiyi was at a loss for words when she heard her mother's oblivious sentences. Li Jirong told her what now?
"Yes. Her name is Gu Xue, and she is my colleague, one of the nurses I trusted the most in this hospital. She is a hard worker with a quick mind. She will look after Xiaohua for us. Please be kind to her." Li Jirong introduced Gu Xue with a broad smile to everyone, and the latter bowed her head respectfully.
"Nice to meet you all. Dr. Li told me that his precious daughter was hospitalized and his wife was having a hard time because of it, so he asked me to help monitor her daughter more. We probably will meet each other often in the future."
"What a nice lady. You must be busy with all your work, yet you are still helping us. My husband is a worrywart sometimes. I already told him I could look after Xiaohua just fine, but he insisted on calling for help so I can rest more." Su Suyin smiled jovially, clearly in a good mood.
"It's natural for a husband to care for his wife. Madam, you are fortunate to have such a good husband."
"Oh my, thank you. I also think my husband is very good to me." Su Suyin blushed a little at the compliment.
Li Caiyi, who witnessed the interaction between the two women, was baffled.
This shameless couple really knew no bounds!
Especially this Gu Xue woman. Li Caiyi already knew she wasn't a simple woman, but the way she gave a backhanded compliment to her mother with a straight face was just infuriating to see. Her words seemed nice and polite, but to the ears of Li Caiyi, who knew about her and Li Jirong's affair, it was nothing but malicious mockery. Gu Xue must have been so proud of herself for flaunting in front of her mother like that.
Li Caiyi just couldn't comprehend their way of thinking. Were they so bored that they even risked getting found out by doing this? Was it necessary to hurt her mother like this for the sake of their 'thrill'?
Li Caiyi couldn't imagine how disappointed her mother would be if she found out about this. When she looked at Su Suyin, who blissfully talked with Gu Xue without knowing anything, her heart ached.
In the Li family house, although Su Suyin was biased toward Li Chunhua, she had never neglected Li Junjie and Li Caiyi either. When she was sick, her mother would take care of her gently, just like any other loving mother would. That warmth was something she had never received from her father, so the fond memories were etched deeply within her mind. For her, Su Suyin was the only parent figure she had.
It would be easier if her mother was a bad person altogether. That way, Li Caiyi could hate her entirely and didn't have to feel wronged for her sake like this.
Based on their conversation, Li Jirong deliberately put Gu Xue near his daughter so he could use it as an excuse to spend more time with his mistress, and simultaneously chased away Su Suyin from here.
Usually, people wouldn't dare to roam around in front of their cheating partner's spouse out of guilt and fear of getting caught, but Li Caiyi knew better to not use a normal standard for these two.
Li Jirong must have coaxed Su Suyin using sweet words to make her agree with this arrangement, and her mother was just blissfully happy that her husband cared so much about her, without knowing these two people were secretly laughing at her stupidity.
Li Caiyi didn't know that she could feel repulsed with Li Jirong even more than she already had. He had just gained a whole level of lowness in Li Caiyi's mind.
Forget about the mistress, but Li Jirong's act, who used his biological daughter's sickness as an excuse to increase the thrill of his affair, was just too disgusting even for him.
'This person doesn't deserve mercy,' Li Caiyi thought coldly. 'Unfortunately, this isn't the right time yet.'
She could pressure him to cancel this stupid arrangement by using the bet she made with him and Meng Renshu's presence, but it might be better if her mother didn't come here too often. Li Caiyi would feel more at ease that way. Honestly, she couldn't care less about those two as long as they stayed away from her mother.
Besides, Li Jirong might suspect something if she was too adamant in rejecting this arrangement.
"Xiaoyi?"
Li Caiyi turned her head automatically and found Meng Renshu, who was looking at her worriedly. His face was so close to her she almost had a heart attack!
"B-brother Renshu? What are you doing?!" Li Caiyi said as she jumped to the side in surprise.
"No. You suddenly fell silent and looked terribly upset. What's wrong?"
"N-nothing. I was just thinking about something," Li Caiyi looked away while rubbing her ear. Strange, why did her ear feel so hot?
Li Caiyi returned her focus to the three people with a tangled relationship between them. They currently had a pleasant chat, as if it was perfectly normal.
"Visiting hours are almost over, so you should go home quickly and take a rest. Don't worry too much, because Xiaohua would be fine. Gu Xue will alert me if something happens to her, so sleep well at home tonight." Li Jirong said with a fake concern plastered on his face. Li Caiyi sneered inwardly, seeing how hypocritical he was being.
Su Suyin was so touched her eyes glistened. "Yes, dear. Please don't overwork yourself." Then she shifted her gaze to Gu Xue. "Xue, I'll leave my daughter in your care. Please look after her."
"Don't worry, Madam. I'll do my best to take care of her." Gu Xue said politely, but Li Caiyi didn't miss a mocking light in her eyes as she looked at Su Suyin.
"Xiaoyi, Renshu, shall we go now? We should let Xiaohua rest for now." Su Suyin beckoned for the two youngsters to follow her. She didn't seem to remember she was about to scold Li Caiyi a moment ago and walked out of the room with a blooming smile on her face.
"Yes, Auntie," Meng Renshu said, after taking a last look at Li Chunhua.
Li Caiyi also followed because she didn't want to be in the same space as those two any longer. She had something she wanted to ask Detective Tang once she got home and charged her phone battery.
'Hm? Didn't Brother Renshu want to talk to me about something earlier?' Li Caiyi glanced at Meng Renshu, who walked ahead of her while talking with her brother but decided it was probably not a good time for that.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
