Chapter 441 Discharge
Chapter 441 Discharge
Liu's mother gasped for breath, sat down on the sofa, and re-wrapped the gauze in front of the mirror. This was her prop, and there could be no mistakes.
"You don't understand. This is what makes it look more realistic. Kids these days... they're all so smart. Who knows if my daughter will figure it out? Luckily I came up with this trick. It looks a lot more like her, doesn't it?"
The man stared at his wife's face in thought and did not answer her for a while.
After wrapping the gauze, Liu's mother checked herself in the mirror and asked casually, "Do you regret it?"
The man walked to his wife's side and fiddled with the gauze on her forehead.
Mother Liu grabbed the man's hand and said, "I'm talking to you."
The man looked down at her with a helpless look on his face: "Since I promised you, I won't regret it easily."
Mother Liu's expression became a little aggrieved.
The man pulled her into his arms and said in a low voice, "Don't look at me like that."
"I agree to whatever you say."
Mother Liu smiled, a tear falling from the corner of her eye. She said in a hoarse voice, "I know you won't lie to me." She put her arms around the man's back. "If you can't bear it, let me be the bad guy. I just hope you don't change your mind midway, or all our efforts will be in vain."
The man's expression changed.
Liu's mother held his arm tightly.
"Don't say that."
"I will definitely cooperate with you."
Mother Liu lowered her head and smiled silently. She suppressed her inner ecstasy and pretended to be moved and said, "Thank you, husband..." The woman sniffed and said, "Hubby, I just thought of a solution. It's what I said before. I will control the amount of food our daughter eats at each meal. I will also buy some very small bowls..."
Liu's mother talked on and on for a long time, and it was hard not to suspect that she had done a lot of preparatory work in advance, just like she was determined to get an employee for a certain project and rushed to make a PPT overnight.
That night, Liu Zelin returned home.
The girl was absent-minded the whole day. She was worried about her mother's health, but she didn't dare to call her parents. After school, she finally got home and ran home quickly. But when she got home, she found that no one was at home.
Strange... Dad had clearly sent her a message saying that Mom had completed the discharge procedures and returned home, "Dad... Mom!"
The girl's questioning voice echoed in the room, but there was no response.
Liu Zelin took out her cell phone and called her father, but no one answered after she called three times. The girl had to give up, took out her homework book from her schoolbag, and stayed in the study to do her homework.
About half an hour later, the Liu couple returned home from their shopping trip.
When Liu Zelin heard the sound, he hurried out of the study and rushed to the entrance.
Liu's mother was holding two large white plastic bags in her hands and had a white gauze wrapped around her forehead. The woman was impatiently directing Liu's father to put the shoes away.
When the couple found their daughter at home, they looked at each other.
Mother Liu hurriedly grabbed Father Liu's neck.
"Ouch... Ouch... My head feels so dizzy!" Mother Liu's tone was weak and her body fell to one side.
Liu Zelin hurried forward and held his mother's arm.
Father Liu finally reacted at this time and said in agreement with his wife.
"Honey...are you okay?" The man paused. "The doctor said you've been in a car accident and have serious sequelae. You need to rest for a long time and avoid any stimulation."
"If it's serious, it could be life-threatening." The man recited the lines he had memorized in advance to his daughter word for word.
He actually felt that it was a bit too much, but he had just agreed to his wife's request, and the two of them had finally had a moment of tenderness. If he didn't do as she said, she would definitely make a scene again.
The less trouble, the better.
"Linlin, in the days ahead, we both need to work even harder to protect Mom." The man breathed a sigh of relief and checked every word he had just said in his mind. He had said everything he needed to say.
Liu Zelin: "Mom, how do you feel? How could being hit by an electric scooter be so serious? Did you call the police and find that guy? I'm going to teach him a lesson!"
Father Liu looked at his daughter in surprise.
Liu Zelin said anxiously, "You haven't called the police yet, have you? When something like this happens, the first thing to do is to find the police. There are surveillance cameras at the school gate, and they will definitely find the bad guy."
"Actually... we have already called the police." Father Liu lowered his head silently.
Liu Zelin stepped forward and continued to ask, "Have you found the person? Now the day is almost over, and there is no progress at all?"
"The police are not Superman!" Liu's mother scolded loudly, interrupting her daughter's continuous questioning.
Liu Zelin: "Mom, that's not what I meant..."
"Why are you chattering away non-stop?" Mother Liu put her right hand on her forehead, a look of pain on her face. "You're making my head buzz."
After hearing her mother's words, Liu Zelin felt wronged and blamed herself. She just wanted to find the bad guy as quickly as possible, but she didn't expect to make her mother feel uncomfortable inadvertently.
"I'm sorry... the police will definitely find the bad guy." The girl stopped dwelling on the topic of the police. Her mother was not feeling well now, and the most important thing was to take good care of her mother's health and make her as happy as possible.
"Mom, let me help you to the sofa..."
"Linlin, I'm not saying anything to you," the woman said, pressing most of her weight towards her daughter, "You've been a little disobedient lately."
"I heard that when people gain weight, their bodies secrete a special hormone that easily causes conflicts between the owner of the body and the outside world." The woman said word by word.
Liu Zelin stared into her mother's eyes in disbelief, her face filled with confusion. Without giving it much thought, the girl retorted, "Mom, don't watch those messed-up videos online."
Liu's mother got angry and threw the can down. "You are just fat now! That's the truth. I don't know what you are trying to explain. I have asked your father to throw away all the biscuits, milk, and melon seeds in the house. I will never buy these things again!"
"Since you don't take the issue of gaining weight seriously, we adults have to think for you and come up with a weight loss plan for you."
"Your pocket money will also stop, so don't even think about buying food on your own."
"Linlin, don't blame me for being cruel. You'll definitely thank us when you grow up. The current trend is to be thin. If you keep getting fatter... you'll be too fat to go out in the end. Don't think I'm kidding you!"
"What sin have I committed to give birth to a child like you who doesn't know what's good for you!" The woman said, hitting her head with both hands, her face full of pain.
Liu Zelin's world was collapsing bit by bit, and her mother's words pierced her heart like needles.
