"May I ask why you are so opposed?" Chuxia looked seriously at Zhao Jian. "I believe it’s not just about her lack of medical skills. If you want my help, I hope you can tell me the truth." She paused, then added, "We are classmates, and my medical skills are about the same as hers."

Zhao Jian furrowed his brows. He naturally understood the implication of Chuxia’s words. In terms of medical skills, the woman in front of him might not be much more advanced than his sister. As for background, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family and a descendant of the Lin Family of the Capital certainly have a deeper background than his sister, so she absolutely qualifies to be compared with his sister.

However... surveying the room, Zhao Jian felt somewhat caught in a dilemma. Exposing his sister’s privacy in front of everyone was quite inappropriate, yet having come to ask for help at someone else’s home, he couldn’t very well ask everyone to step aside, could he?

Noticing Zhao Jian’s expression, Chuxia stood up: "Let’s go sit in the side hall."

Relieved, Zhao Jian smiled apologetically at everyone and followed Chuxia to the side hall. After sitting down, his smile became much more sincere: "Thank you."

"You" had become "you" (formal), and the difference between them was self-evident. Chuxia’s lips curled into a faint smile: "It’s only right. I’m asking this not to make things difficult for you or because I don’t want to help, but to hope to clearly understand from which angle to approach.

We originally agreed to join the medical team together. She was even more eager to go than I was. Now I succeeded but am advising her not to go. She might think I’m speaking without understanding her concerns, right?

When someone becomes obsessed with something, their emotions are generally unstable. They won’t listen to what you say, so how could she listen to me?"

Indeed, he came seeking help because his sister was preoccupied with the agreement between her and Lin Chuxia. Unable to go in the end meant she was unreliable, yet he overlooked whether this was the real reason or just an excuse...

To be honest, just now he truly felt Lin Chuxia was making a fuss. But now he understood that he had wrongly accused her... Smiling apologetically at Chuxia, Zhao Jian sighed: "My sister is only half a year younger than Zhao Weiwei. When they were young, both of them stayed with my grandmother, so naturally, they were playmates, and their bond was especially strong.

Later, they went to school together. At that time, Bingbing’s relationship with Vivi was deeper than with their parents. If there was something good, she would always think of getting a share for Vivi.

Until a year ago, Vivi stole Bingbing’s boyfriend, and their relationship hit rock bottom. Yet, every elder in the family didn’t think it was Vivi’s fault.

The boyfriend was taken away, yet Bingbing was labeled as the one at fault. How could she swallow this grievance? Since then, she’s been comparing herself with Vivi at every turn, aiming to match Vivi.

As Bingbing’s older brother, naturally I didn’t like Vivi’s actions. However, from a fair standpoint, if I were to choose, I would also choose to be with Vivi, especially when the two of them were compared side by side.

Lang Yi’s actions were indeed disgraceful, but Bingbing’s carelessness and lack of discretion were indeed her fault. It was always Vivi who helped save face for her. How could Lang Yi’s heart not be biased?

Yet, when we try to explain this to Bingbing, she feels we’re deliberately making excuses for Vivi. Currently, Bingbing completely loses her rationality over matters involving Vivi.

This is precisely the fundamental reason why my father and I firmly disagree. Vivi’s scheming is too deep. With Bingbing’s character, if she’s truly sent under Vivi’s eye, whether she would safely return is uncertain.

Perhaps my father and I are overly suspicious, but we can’t afford to take risks. For us, Bingbing is the treasure of the family. Even if she ends up hating me, we don’t want her to get into trouble."

Chuxia furrowed her brows as well. She hadn’t thought that Zhao Bingbing’s father and brother were worried about this matter. However, if it’s truly like what they’re concerned about, then she really should advise Zhao Bingbing... After hesitating, Chuxia looked at Zhao Jian, "Does Vivi’s scheming truly frighten both you and Uncle Zhao?"

"In our family, altogether there are seven children, none of them think she’s bad, but at crucial times, she did such a thing..." Zhao Jian spread his hands, "Just this alone can explain issues, right?"

"Besides this?"

After a long silence, Zhao Jian finally said, "I mentioned that Bingbing and Vivi grew up together by our grandparents’ side. Initially, our grandparents treated them about the same, gradually, grandpa only liked Vivi, while grandma was inclined towards Bingbing. Yet grandpa always thought grandma’s hair was long but wisdom short.

Once, when I went to grandpa’s house, Vivi happened to be home alone with grandpa. She told grandpa that Bingbing invited her to go dancing. She refused because she wanted to stay home with grandpa and grandma.

The old man was naturally so happy he couldn’t stop smiling. But later when I asked Bingbing, Bingbing said Vivi’s classmate was having a birthday dance. After hearing Vivi talk about it, Bingbing was so curious that she arranged to go with other classmates. Of course, she invited Vivi too, but Vivi said she wasn’t feeling well and gave Bingbing ten dollars to buy some treats for her classmates.

For this, Bingbing was especially grateful to her. At the time, seeing Bingbing’s happy face, I really couldn’t bear to tell her the truth. That year, both Bingbing and Vivi were in high school.

After the incident with Lang Yi, I felt particularly guilty. If I had told Bingbing back then, warned her, maybe she wouldn’t have suffered such a big hurt.

Bingbing now almost hates Vivi to the core. If she faces Vivi every day, there’s no guarantee she won’t do something irrational. If she provokes Vivi, in a place like that, we can’t take the gamble."

"Got it." Chuxia nodded, thinking about someone who steps on others to elevate herself at all times. Who could guarantee she wouldn’t do something more excessive? Especially since Zhao Bingbing is such a straightforward person, her joys and hatreds are written all over her face. When they meet, Zhao Weiwei will definitely be on guard against her. No matter the outcome, it wouldn’t be favorable for Zhao Bingbing.

"Have you agreed to my request?" Zhao Jian looked at Chuxia with anticipation.

"Yes." Chuxia nodded, "With what you’ve said, what reason do I have to refuse? Besides, I don’t like people who have deep schemes and harm others to promote themselves."

"Thank you, thank you..." Zhao Jian stood up and deeply bowed to Chuxia, his voice slightly trembling with excitement. Chuxia quickly stood up, reached out to pretend to help, "Big Brother Zhao, don’t be so polite. Although I’ve just met Bingbing, we get along quite well. Of course, I’ll unconditionally help her with something I can. I asked so many questions earlier just to ensure we handle this matter properly. I hope Big Brother Zhao doesn’t find me too wordy."

"How could I find you too wordy? If it weren’t for your genuine willingness to help, you wouldn’t ask so much. At my age, if I can’t even understand that, I might as well have lived my life on a dog’s back..." Hesitating slightly, Zhao Jian said, "If possible, I request you to go as early as you can. Bingbing hasn’t eaten for two days already."

Chuxia nodded and replied, "I’ll go with you right now."

"Thank you..." Zhao Jian expressed his gratitude with a grateful face, "Bingbing reaching out to you shows she has good judgment. Her past mistake was just because Vivi was too good at pretending.

However, I can’t let you go right now, no matter how anxious I am. You should eat first, then inform your family before coming with me. It’s not that I don’t want you to come to my home to cook, but my mom’s cooking skills are too poor, I fear you won’t be used to it."

"It’s still early, and I’m not hungry. Let’s head to your house first..." Taking two steps outside, Chuxia looked earnestly at Zhao Jian and said, "I must declare first, I will do my best, but I cannot guarantee the outcome."

"I know, I know, I’m not unreasonable..." Zhao Jian’s face flushed red, "If I weren’t so worried about Bingbing, I wouldn’t act so rashly."

...

"You guys don’t need to say anymore. No matter what you say, I won’t eat. Anyway, I’ve put it out there: if you want me to eat, then meet my demands. Otherwise, everything is off the table!"

"You’ve gone two days without eating, yet your voice is still quite strong."

Bingbing, who was lying facing the wall, suddenly turned around, looking at Chuxia with delight, lowering her voice as she asked, "Come quickly, come quickly, I’ve been hoping for you, and now you’re here, hehe..."

"Looking at you..." Chuxia gave Bingbing an astonished once-over, "Have you really been fasting for two days? Looking at your energy, it doesn’t seem that way."

"Hehe..." Bingbing smirked proudly, "Do you think I’m so foolish? If I really got sick from hunger, they wouldn’t let me go even more.

Don’t worry, my mom has already been convinced to be my ally. Every day when my dad and brother aren’t around, she sneaks food to me. When they return, my mom tells them I haven’t eaten all day.

Then, when my dad and brother come in, I pretend to be half dead..." She said while chuckling slyly, "How about that, am I smart? I knew they’d eventually ask you to be the mediator, and it’s perfect, I can discuss the next steps with you."

"Discuss what?"

"My mom has already signed me up. When you have time in the next two days, come to take my things. On the day of departure, I’ll escape through the window to meet up with you..." Zhao Bingbing pleaded as she grasped Chuxia, "Whether or not it succeeds is entirely up to you!"

"Sorry, I can’t help you."

The smile on Zhao Bingbing’s face froze, and after a long pause, she looked at Chuxia with a stiff expression and asked, "Why can’t you help me? Didn’t you say we’re already friends? Shouldn’t friends help each other?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you’re welcome to vote for recommendations or monthly tickets on Qidian (qidian.com).
