Chapter 266: Competing for Care
Chapter 266: Competing for Care
Kane was originally just crying silently, and he was able to keep calm, but upon hearing these words, his emotions instantly lost control and he burst into tears.
He felt no less guilty than McQueen and Jiang Linlin, and because he was young, the pressure this incident brought him was even greater. When he came this morning and saw his sister wrapped up like a mummy, he was stunned in shock, and the guilt surged like a tide, almost crushing him.
But the first thing my sister said when she woke up was to excuse him. It was the same as last time, as if nothing good would happen to my sister if she stayed with him.
Kane couldn't bear it and ran out of the ward.
Xu Weiwei looked at the direction her brother left with concern. Adjutant Qiu comforted her, "Don't worry, I'll go find him." Then he chased after her.
"Brother is a little depressed at the moment. Can you have a good talk with him when Wei'er feels better?" Mrs. Sivers wiped away her tears and said gently.
Xu Weiwei hummed softly.
"Miss, please drink some water. Your voice sounds hoarse." Meilin brought a cup of warm water with a straw in it, with red eyes.
Xu raised her head slightly, held the straw, and drank the water eagerly with gulps. The glass of water was soon empty. After finishing the drink, she looked straight at Meilin, her meaning was very obvious.
"Do you want to drink more? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something first? The doctor said you can eat now."
Xu Weiwei shook her head: "I don't want to eat, I just want to drink water."
After drinking three glasses of water, Xu Weiwei finally felt that her thirst was somewhat satisfied. Seeing Jiang Linlin, who was hesitant and ashamed behind the crowd, she took the initiative to call her "Auntie".
"How's the crew's work going? I disappeared in the middle of the performance. Are you worried?"
"Don't mention work, my aunt is already looking for a hole to crawl into. The crew has already found a kid about your size to play the role of being beaten, without showing his face. The effect is pretty good, so we decided to use him like this."
Xu Weiwei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This play had such an unfortunate fate. It was like patching up. It was patched up again after it broke. She had to see what the final effect would be after it was released.
Someone had already removed her makeup and the contact lenses she had worn. Only her hair was still platinum. To say it was platinum was not quite accurate, because when she was whipped she rolled around on the ground, and her hair was already black, with knots at the ends.
Xu Weiwei looked extremely uncomfortable.
"Want to wash?" asked Mrs. Seaforth.
"Ah."
"Come, lie down on the side..."
The three women worked together and spent half an hour restoring Xu Weiwei's hair to its original state, drying it, and applying hair care oil. Xu Weiwei felt a lot more relaxed.
At this time, Kane came in behind Adjutant Qiu, looking much calmer, but his eyes were still a little swollen. Mrs. Wolfhard and Finn also came in with them.
Finn was holding a fruit basket in one hand and flowers in the other. When he saw Xu Weiwei, his pupils shrank instantly, and the fruit basket in his hand shook, and an orange rolled to the ground.
Meilin helped pick it up and took the fruit basket.
Mrs. Wolfhard's reaction was more direct. She cried "Oh my God!", lifted her skirt and walked quickly to the bedside, and began to criticize and curse, "How did he get hurt like this! What happened to the kidnappers? Did they kill them? Don't let them get away with it!"
"The old man is really hanging himself - looking for death! These guys are worse than pigs and dogs... They dare to touch anyone, they are really blind! They should be made to swallow ten thousand needles alive to vent their anger! No, it is better to give them a taste of their own medicine. Do they have children? Catch them and return the same injuries on Wei'er's body. This is fair." Mrs. Wolfhard said indignantly, with her hands on her hips and her eyes erect.
In the past, Xu Weiwei might have listened with great interest, but now she just felt uneasy. She subconsciously glanced at her father and uncle, her eyes dodging and not daring to look them in the eye.
Her father and uncle witnessed the murder. What would they think? Would they have a grudge against her and no longer like her as much as before?
Did anyone else know what she had done? What did her father say...Xu Weiwei was in a state of confusion.
"Of course he was killed. McQueen and I stabbed him to pieces, and then we shot him to death when he bled out almost all the blood." Sifos said calmly.
"Well, that's fine."
Finn stood there for a long time without saying anything, then came forward with flowers and said, "I wish you a speedy recovery."
Xu Weiwei withdrew her thoughts, glanced at the beautifully tied bouquet, thanked her, and took a deep breath of the fragrance. This kind of beautiful food always cheers people up.
Finn placed it at the head of Xu Weiwei's bed. Then he stood there motionless, and just when Xu Weiwei was confused, he suddenly asked, "Do you want to eat oranges?"
Xu was stunned for a moment, "Eat, eat..."
I have no appetite for food, but a sweet and sour fruit seems acceptable.
"I'm going to wash it."
Ignoring his mother's teasing, Finn washed the orange, peeled it, cut it into small pieces, put it in a bowl, put a fork on it, and brought it to Xu Weiwei, feeding her bite by bite.
During this period, Kane, Ryan and Ryan all tried to snatch the job from him, but no matter what they said, Finn remained unmoved.
Halfway through eating, Xu Weiwei didn't want to eat anymore, so Finn took the rest and stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation. Then he asked, "Do you want some grapes?"
Before Xu Weiwei could refuse, he added, "Peel it well and remove the seeds."
Xu Weiwei: ...What should I do? Can he read my mind? I am completely controlled.
Seeing their sister's reaction, the three men all rushed to peel the grapes. Meilin looked at this scene and lamented that her skills were useless.
Finn followed the three people leisurely and confidently, took out a small gadget from the bag tied to the fruit basket, and then slandered the three people with a few words -
"Have you washed your hands? There are a lot of bacteria under your fingernails, and the flesh is all rotten. Don't you know there are special tools for peeling grapes? This end takes out the core, this end takes out the flesh... um, a complete grape."
Finn demonstrated the tool in his hand, then lowered his head and started peeling it quickly.
Kane forced a laugh and said through gritted teeth, "Are you tired? Let me use your tool."
Finn didn't even raise his head: "Not tired. And you wouldn't be able to use it even if I gave it to you."
Ignoring the three jealous people, Finn fed Xu Weiwei another small bowl of grape pulp. The adults were very happy to see her eat with an appetite, and they were also happy to see that she had so many brothers caring about her.
In the following time, Finn acted like a responsible caregiver. He didn't talk much, but when he opened his mouth he could speak into Xu Weiwei's heart.
Kane and Ryan looked at each other and simultaneously thought of an old friend they hadn't seen for a long time.
This unpleasant feeling of threat was exactly the same as when they first encountered Gantz. One by one, two people came to take their place, but they couldn't get rid of them. This feeling made people feel extremely frustrated.
