Li Beinian’s neck was hurting. Having heard Will’s request, she tried to move. However the pain in her neck did not relent. She couldn’t help but frown.
Will noticed this and politely asked, “Do you need help?”
He meant to help Li Beinian up.
Although Will had been in England for many years, he knew some of Xia Nation’s customs.
For example, men and women shouldn’t touch each other.
However, Li Beinian looked like she was in pain, hence Will asked.
But after seeing Li Beinian shake her head, he understood.
She said, “It’s alright. My mother is out for the time being and will be back soon.”
Will nodded and looked up at her. He said politely, “Miss Beinian, is that Madam Tang your biological mother?”
Li Beinian shook her head. “She’s my Godma, but from my perspective, she’s more than my biological mother.”
As soon as he said this, Li Beinian seemed to sense that Will had deepened his smile..
Li Beinian couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you suddenly asking this?”
Maintaining his smile, Will said politely, “I just thought that you don’t look like your parents or your brother. That’s why I asked you this.”
Then he said, “I shall take my leave now. When you come over, just knock on the door.”
“Alright.”
Will nodded politely and turned to leave.
Tang Xiaoge returned about half an hour later carrying two thermal containers.
Li Beinian looked at her and said, “Godma, please help me up. I have to go to Ward 66.”
Tang Xiaoge looked at her and questioned. “Whatever for?”
“Mr. Nico, whose car I rammed into, is unable to walk. It’s only right that I go and see him. I haven’t seen him since.”
“He’s in a much better condition than you. There are people around to serve him. Look at your own family. Your grandfather only came once yesterday. And that father of yours doesn’t even want to pay the medical bills.” Tang Xiaoge was extremely dissatisfied with the Li family. “What sort of father is he? You’ve wasted your time calling him father!”
“Godma,” Li Beinian said helplessly. “I didn’t grow up being a part of that family. Weren’t you the ones who raised me? Li Haoran and I will have nothing to do with each other from now on. The two of you have always been my parents and will be my only parents.”
Li Beinian’s voice was a little coquettish. “Quickly help me up. The man came here for a vacation and got hit by my car. It’s too tragic. I have to make a proper apology.”
Tang Xiaoge nodded. “It’s only right. I’ll go with you. It’s not convenient for a girl to go to a man’s ward alone.”
In fact, Li Beinian thought so too.
That was why she insisted on waiting for Tang Xiaoge to return.
Now that she had Tang Xiaoge by her side, Li Beinian tidied herself up and headed towards Ward 66 with Tang Xiaoge’s help.
Tang Xiaoge knocked on the door and it was quickly opened.
Will smiled politely and said, “You’re here.”
As he spoke, he stepped aside to welcome them into the room.
Upon entering it, Li Beinian was rather taken aback.
The four walls of the room were snow-white, and a few simple and colorful oil paintings hung upon them.
There was a simple white dining table in the room. Placed at the centre of the table was a vase with a beautiful red rose in it.
