CHAPTER 228: CHAPTER 216: THE ONE THAT COULDN’T BE KEPT_2

"Where do you want to go? I’ll take you."

He Bainian spoke. He had indeed just been discharged from the hospital, without arranging for anyone to pick him up, yet unexpectedly saw Lin Zhenxin saying goodbye to Tu Haohao.

"No need." Lin Zhenxin responded calmly.

To be honest, Lin Zhenxin felt somewhat sympathetic towards He Bainian.

Especially regarding the issue with He Nuoxin.

From the perspective of an elder brother who cherishes his sister, everyone would give He Bainian full marks.

He really was a good brother who stood unconditionally by his sister’s side.

Even if the whole world were wronged, he would never let He Nuoxin be wronged.

"Is taking you to the subway station okay? It’s just five minutes away."

He Bainian spoke.

Lin Zhenxin looked at him silently, thought for a bit, and still refused.

He Bainian’s face clearly showed a look of disappointment.

But shortly after, He Bainian handed her a white envelope, with a thick stack of RMB showing from inside.

"This is the initial hospital fee that Li Yanan covered for me, please help me repay him."

He Bainian said in a deep voice, and Lin Zhenxin did not refuse, putting it into her bag and turning her face to the side.

"For the matter of the remittance slip and asking you to apologize to Nuoxin, I’m sorry."

Hearing He Bainian’s words, Lin Zhenxin just responded with an "hmm" and said nothing else.

"If there were a chance to start over, I would definitely make a different choice, at least... I wouldn’t make you dislike me so much again!"

He Bainian laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Instead of saying so much, why don’t you put some more thought into your sister."

In response, He Bainian looked at her deeply.

Lin Zhenxin just continued walking forward.

"Lin Zhenxin..."

He Bainian called out her name.

Lin Zhenxin heard and turned back expressionlessly.

"Goodbye!" he simply said.

The next morning, when Lin Zhenxin was having breakfast with Li Yanan, the news was playing simultaneously on TV.

Just as Li Yanan had predicted, the Li Family and Tu Family jointly issued a statement announcing an official arranged marriage.

This news was explosive, especially after the Li Family had just experienced such a severe incident.

On the contrary, Li Yanan remained as calm as ever, peeling the boiled shrimp and placing it in Lin Zhenxin’s bowl, the shrimp was intact, and the vein was thoroughly cleaned.

The wedding was tentatively set for two months later.

"Two months is enough time for the Li Family, with the help of the Tu Family, to have a breather."

Li Yanan spoke coldly, while Lin Zhenxin remembered something and turned around to retrieve the white envelope from her bag.

Yesterday, Li Yanan had returned home too late, and she was already asleep.

It wasn’t until Li Yanan spoke that she remembered this matter.

"This is the hospital fee you covered for He Bainian."

Lin Zhenxin continued to lower her head, biting into the shrimp. Currently, Aunt Xu would prepare nutritious meals for her every morning.

In just a few days, she already felt like she was being fed fat.

"Yesterday, as I was leaving the hospital, I happened to run into He Bainian, who just got discharged."

Fearing that Li Yanan would overthink, Lin Zhenxin hurriedly added another sentence.

"The hospital? What were you doing at the hospital? Not feeling well?" Li Yanan’s concern wasn’t focused on He Bainian.

Upon hearing the word hospital, Aunt Xu, who was originally in the kitchen, also stepped out.

As for Grandma, she even put down her chopsticks, with a look ready to cry.

"It’s not me feeling unwell... it’s Tu..." As the words reached her lips, Lin Zhenxin thought of Tu Haohao’s face and swallowed them back.

"It’s my friend who isn’t feeling well."

Aunt Xu felt relieved upon hearing this, only Li Yanan looked at her thoughtfully.

Lin Zhenxin felt a little guilty, burying her face in her bowl, pretending not to notice the man’s gaze.

"By the way..." Aunt Xu came out again.

However, what she said next made both Lin Zhenxin and Li Yanan stop in their tracks...

"Who bought the stuff left at the garage door and didn’t bring it up?"

Aunt Xu, wiping her hands, brought a big bag of things from the hallway.

When Lin Zhenxin left the bedroom this morning, she had seen it and thought Aunt Xu brought it.

"I didn’t buy it," Li Yanan glanced over.

"Neither did I." Lin Zhenxin shook her head.

"There are only two households in the entire building, and it’s full of maternal and infant products. Are you sure neither of you bought it?"

Aunt Xu looked puzzled, wondering if she had mistakenly taken someone else’s belongings.

But this large bag of maternal and infant supplies was placed right at the most conspicuous spot in front of the garage door...

It was clearly intended to attract attention.

"Uh-oh, could it be that He Nuoxin..."

As Aunt Xu’s words fell, everyone’s expressions changed, except Grandma, who continued to eat happily.

Li Yanan stood up and approached the bag of maternal and infant products, taking the contents out one by one.
