Chapter 1056: Chapter 1055: Change a Brother-in-law Chapter 1056: Chapter 1055: Change a Brother-in-law “No!”
Jiang Yang, who had been quietly reading, suddenly threw himself into Nan Fei’s arms. “Sister, who made you sad? Was it your brother-in-law?”
“Of course not!” Nan Fei, afraid that Jiang Yang would detect something, deliberately put on a smile, tapped his nose, and forcefully changed the topic, “Help me think, what could it be?”
Then, Jiang Yang leaned on Nan Fei’s shoulder, his fair and delicate chin resting on it little by little, looking very well-behaved.
“I don’t know who the mastermind behind this is, but I know he’s targeting brother-in-law. The reason Jing Tong approached the Fu Family was also just because they are relatives of brother-in-law. They were just using the Fu Family as a stepping stone.”
After saying this, Jiang Yang nodded solemnly as if to affirm his own words.
“The person really hates brother-in-law and wants to kill him.”
Nan Fei’s complexion turned uncontrollably pale.
With a touch of heartache, Jiang Yang caressed her cheek and comforted her, “Sister, don’t be afraid! I will protect you. If brother-in-law dies, we’ll just find a new one.”
After saying this, he shyly glanced at Wei Qin and bashfully added, “Brother Wei Qin would be a good choice, I approve of him as my brother-in-law.”
Jiang Yang’s expression, as he leaned on Nan Fei’s shoulder, was unprecedentedly calm, yet his downcast eyes harbored raging emotions.
Huo Beijiang entered from outside and what he heard were these last few words. His already grim face now looked as tranquil as the calm before a storm and he just stood there at the door, staring fixedly at everyone in the room.
Even the typically composed Wei Qin felt a sense of helplessness.
“Bei Jiang, listen to me, it wasn’t me! I didn’t do it!” What a wrongful disaster!
He Shasha, with her head lowered, habitually pretended she didn’t exist.
Nan Fei, still thinking about how she had been yelled at earlier, knew he meant well but being disrespected and not trusted didn’t feel good. She didn’t want to make a scene like a shrew right now.
One day, she would prove, with her own strength, that she could be by his side.
“Brother-in-law, you have to stay alive, otherwise I will certainly find a new one,” Jiang Yang said innocently to Huo Beijiang, “I know there are many who wish to be my brother-in-law, so many.”
“Alright, you can shut up now.” Huo Beijiang snapped impatiently, “If I hear any more, I’ll beat you so your own mother won’t recognize you.”
“Then you’d have to ask how good your mother-in-law’s memory is.”
Huo Beijiang was momentarily stumped, internally criticizing how his brother-in-law had become completely annoying after recovering.
Turned all cunning.
“Hey, hey, hey… why are you wandering around?” The doctor, still holding tools for dressing wounds, hurried over and, seeing Huo Beijiang, said discontentedly, “Didn’t I tell you? The knife wound on your back plus the recent burn are already severe. You must be hospitalized for treatment. How come you disappeared as soon as I went to disinfect?”
“Is it that serious?” Nan Fei, no longer concerned about being angry, stood up from her seat and quickly walked over to Huo Beijiang. It was then she noticed his jacket was gone, only wearing a black short-sleeve shirt.
And the section on his back was completely soaked through.
Nan Fei’s hands trembled as she reached out to touch, finding it covered in sticky blood. She couldn’t help but have tears well up in her eyes, swirling around, yet she fiercely held them back because she had just vowed to prove her capabilities with actions.
She couldn’t go back on her words that easily.
