Chapter 400: Amended: Chapter 395 Disturbance
Having been in the hospital for nearly half a month, Xia Shi was almost jumping out of bed at the news of being able to be discharged.
As Bi Xia walked over, Xia Shi packed her things while saying, "Finally, I can leave the hospital. If I stay any longer, I’ll start growing mold."
Handing over the clothes she brought from home, Bi Xia raised an eyebrow slightly, "Moldy? I think if you don’t leave soon, the entire hospital will be turned upside down by you."
"You cheeky girl!" Xia Shi poked Bi Xia’s head, "All you do is mock me. Do you think I want to cause trouble? That Old Mrs. Bi came here several times making a fuss. How would I be able to block the hospital entrance?"
As she spoke, Xia Shi murmured softly, "I have no idea how she found out, even knowing which hospital and room I’m staying in."
Hearing Xia Shi’s words, Bi Xia also paused. If Xia Shi hadn’t mentioned it, Bi Xia wouldn’t have noticed. Yes, it did seem that every time something happened, the Bi Family always knew the exact details immediately.
With a flicker of concern in her eyes, Bi Xia glanced at Xia Shi, who was checking the clothes she brought. This must not happen again!
"Xiaxia, I don’t think I’ve seen this dress before?" Xia Shi turned the dress over in her hands, clearly fond of it but also a bit puzzled as she looked up.
"All the old clothes were left in that house and are too dirty to wear. I just bought this one for you, and there are a few more in the car that I bought recently," Bi Xia said as she took the dress from Xia Shi, tore off the sturdy tag with her hands, and handed the dress back, "Quick, try it on. I think it’ll look great on you."
Xia Shi didn’t know how to respond at first. She looked down at the dress, "You... Xiaxia, where did you get the money to buy this dress? Judging by the brand, it doesn’t look cheap. We’re not only renting a house right now, but we also need to repay A Zhan and the others for the hospital and treatment costs. This is the time when we need to save money, you..."
Seeing Xia Shi getting more and more distressed, Bi Xia rubbed her head a bit helplessly. She suddenly felt that maybe it was time to explain a few things to her mother. Otherwise, when they went downstairs and her mother saw the car she drove and the new house, she might get a heart attack from the shock.
Thinking about this, Bi Xia suddenly covered Xia Shi’s mouth, "Mom, listen to me, okay?"
Startled by Bi Xia’s sudden motion, Xia Shi reflexively nodded. Bi Xia slowly said, "First of all, the worries about the house, hospital fees, and so on, were all taken care of when you were just admitted. Rest assured, I didn’t use any money from Fourth Brother or Qi. It was all mine."
"And why am I saying all this?" Bi Xia continued, "What I want to say is, your daughter once won a knowledge contest and got a hundred thousand and a Lamborghini. Now, she has the ability to earn enough money. You need to trust me."
"When it comes to money, you don’t need to worry. As long as I’m here, our family won’t need to scrimp and save like before. I said I’d make sure you all live well, eat well, and use good things, and I meant it."
Picking up a comb, Bi Xia gently brushed her mother’s hair, smiling softly, "And besides, when a daughter makes money, what’s wrong with buying her mother some clothes? Isn’t it what she should do?"
Listening to Bi Xia, Xia Shi looked at the dress in her hands, "Of course I trust my child, but still, I worry. You suddenly went out and bought me clothes without a word. I’ve worn this brand before, each piece costing thousands. I’m not naive."
"Alright, I won’t ask anymore," Xia Shi said as she felt Bi Xia finishing her hairdo, then she stood up and headed for the bathroom, "I’ll go put on the dress. My child bought it for me; it makes me happy just looking at it."
Bi Xia smiled and called out to Xia Shi, who was walking into the bathroom, "Why go to the bathroom to change? You’re my mom, I’m your daughter, why so shy?"
"Get out of here, silly girl," Xia Shi’s muffled voice came from the bathroom, "You look like a boy now. Changing in front of you feels odd, not to mention what if someone barges in."
Laughing softly, Bi Xia couldn’t help but touch her necklace and shrugged, "By the way, where’s Little Bun?"
"He went to say goodbye to the kids in the building," Xia Shi said, smiling, "Can you believe it? In such a short time, he’s made himself more at home here than I have..."
"Ah!!!! Brother!!!"
Before Xia Shi could finish her sentence, a piercing scream rang out. Bi Xia stopped in her tracks and ran out of the room, with Xia Shi following close behind. It was Bi Xiaoyuan!
