The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned Chapter 187 – Another Plot

Chapter 187: Another Plot

“We can find a chance to compete again,” Yan Jinyu said to Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi was stunned for a moment before excitement flashed in his eyes, “Alright!”

He really wanted to have a good match and see how far away he was from them.

When the few of them skied back, the rescue team at the ski resort had already placed Cao Ming on a stretcher and carried him back. The person in charge of the ski resort was nodding and apologizing to Huo Sisi.

As soon as she saw them coming back, Huo Sisi hid the impatience and unwillingness in her eyes and looked worried, “Rainy, are you okay? Are you hurt?”

“You’re only asking about me. Shouldn’t you care about your friend? He seems to be seriously injured.”

Others didn’t hear what Yan Jinyu said to Cao Ming, but Huo Siyu did.

Hence, she naturally wanted to add fuel to the fire!

Huo Sisi was far away, so she didn’t know if they had already seen that Cao Ming’s actions were intentional. At this moment, someone like Huo Sisi, who had always been good at protecting herself, naturally wouldn’t show too close to Cao Ming in front of them.

Just as Huo Siyu had expected, Huo Sisi quickly said, “You’re my sister, so I naturally care more about you. Besides, Cao Ming is a boy. It’s fine if he’s injured. You’re a girl. If you’re injured, you definitely won’t be able to withstand that pain.”

Huo Siyu smiled, “Is that so? But I think both Cao Ming’s legs are broken. Are you really not going to take a look? No matter what, he’s someone you invited and your friend.”

The more Huo Siyu said this, the more vigilant Huo Sisi became. She felt that Huo Siyu was deliberately setting a trap for her so that she could use her “concern” about Cao Ming to blame her for what Cao Ming had done.

Hence, she said, “With the paramedics around, there’s no use for me to go over there. But Little Rain, are you really fine?”

“I’m fine. I practiced martial arts for a few years when I was young. I reacted quickly just now and wasn’t injured.”

As soon as Huo Siyu finished speaking, Xiang Jie, who was standing beside Huo Sisi, nudged her. “Sisi, the paramedics brought Cao Ming over. Cao Ming seemed to have heard what you said just now and misunderstood you. The way he looks at you is a little…”

Scary.

However, Xiang Jie did not dare to say that. She only said, “It’s a little strange.”

Huo Sisi was shocked. She turned back and met Cao Ming’s smiling eyes, “Sisi, don’t worry. I’m fine.”

Huo Sisi couldn’t see through Cao Ming.

However, she had an indescribably strange feeling.

She kept feeling that Cao Ming seemed to have changed. He was no longer the Cao Ming who would do anything for her just because she coaxed him.

“Don’t say too much. Let’s go to the hospital first.” She bit her lip tightly. “I-I didn’t expect things to turn out like this. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have called you over. I’m sorry.”

For someone like Cao Ming who liked someone to the point of being insane, that person would hold the most weight in his heart, even more than himself.

Hence, when he looked at Huo Sisi now, he didn’t seem to feel that the injuries on his body were very painful. A hint of ruthlessness flashed past his eyes quickly, and then he said gently, “It’s not your fault. It’s just a small injury. I’ll be fine after resting for a while. If you really feel sorry, prepare a pot of bone broth for me every day during my stay in the hospital and send it to me personally.”

Huo Sisi was stunned. She didn’t seem to expect him to say that.

However, after thinking about it, she still had to do it on account of saving her face. It was just bone broth. She could just get the servants to make it.

She nodded. “Alright, go to the hospital first. I’ll visit you after I’m done here.” Then, she added, “I’m sorry. If I didn’t invite you over, you wouldn’t be like this. I’m really sorry.”

After apologizing twice, she seemed distant from him.

This was for Huo Siyu and Yan Jinyu so that they would know that she wasn’t that familiar with Cao Ming.

As for whether Cao Ming would think too much about it, Huo Sisi’s thoughts were that she had already expressed her concern just now. When she went to the hospital to visit him later, she would coax him gently and carefully. Cao Ming should not suspect her anymore.

***

The ambulance brought Cao Ming away.

After such a thing happened, no matter how curious the onlookers were about Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu, they knew that it was not a good time to greet them. Especially after they saw that the person in charge of the ski resort was nodding and apologizing to Huo Sisi, they knew that the identities of this group of people were not simple. They were smart enough not to join in the fun.

However, not everyone had this understanding. A few young ladies boldly ran over to show their concern to Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu. After confirming that they were not injured, they enthusiastically expressed their admiration for the two of them. In the end, those young ladies left reluctantly after Huo Siyu said that they still had to settle the aftermath of the incident with the ski park.

This was just a small interlude.

Actually, Huo Sisi had almost settled the matter once those young ladies left.

The ski park was unlucky as it had to bear all of Cao Ming’s medical fees.

“I’m sorry about today. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen and ruin everyone’s mood,” Huo Sisi said apologetically.

“Our moods are not important. What’s important is that someone is injured. Shouldn’t we be most concerned about Cao Ming’s injuries now?” Yuan Yuan’s tone wasn’t very polite.

She felt a lingering fear at the thought of Yuan Xi almost getting injured too.

She didn’t see the interaction between Huo Sisi and Cao Ming before Cao Ming went over to join the competition. However, she saw that when Cao Ming couldn’t control the skateboard and knocked it towards Yan Jinyu, Huo Sisi was obviously very agitated. She gave people the feeling that she couldn’t wait for Cao Ming to hit her.

Then, when Cao Ming couldn’t hit Yan Jinyu and was sent flying instead, she unintentionally saw Huo Sisi’s anger and indignation.

In that case, the chances of Cao Ming being instigated by Huo Sisi were very high.

Yuan Yuan didn’t care about the life and death of others. She only cared about Yuan Xi.

The thought of Yuan Xi almost getting implicated made her unable to give Huo Sisi a good attitude.

“Yuanyuan, are… are you angry? I’m sorry. I didn’t know that things would turn out like this. I even almost harmed your brother. I just didn’t expect that although your brother is young, he knows how to save the damsel in distress.” The last sentence seemed to be trying to divert the trouble away.

Yuan Yuan couldn’t tell, but Yuan Xi could.

“There’s no need to say such provocative words. I indeed want to save Eldest Miss Yan. Not to mention that it was my choice and completely unrelated to Eldest Miss Yan, even if I wasn’t willing, wasn’t it obvious that it was Eldest Miss Yan who saved me in the end?”

It was the first time Yuan Yuan had heard her younger brother say so much in one breath. She was a little shocked. It took her a while to react and she hurriedly followed his words. “Indeed, my younger brother was willing to save Miss Yan. You don’t have to sow discord. In the end, it was indeed Miss Yan who saved my younger brother.”

“Thank you,” Yuan Yuan said to Yan Jinyu.

Yan Jinyu smiled. “I should be the one thanking you guys.”

Apart from that, nothing else.

Just as Yan Jinyu had thought, she didn’t think that Huo Sisi’s plan today was limited to this.

Now she was even more certain.

Because Huo Sisi had yet to suggest visiting Cao Ming in the hospital. She even had the intention of stalling for time here.

It was obvious that when Yuan Yuan said those words, she only had to follow Yuan Yuan’s words and suggest going to the hospital to resolve it. However, she had to say so much.

Was it because Huo Sisi cared about Yuan Yuan, her friend, and was afraid that Yuan Yuan and her relationship would be distant that was why she tried to divert the trouble?

Obviously not.

Huo Sisi knew better than anyone that her relationship with Yuan Yuan was only so-so.

If Huo Sisi wasn’t stalling for time, what was she doing then?

Of course, it was also possible that Huo Sisi really didn’t want to have an unhappy relationship with Yuan Yuan. However, from Yan Jinyu’s point of view, she was more inclined to the possibility that Huo Sisi was stalling for time.

Why was she stalling? What was she waiting for?

Yan Jinyu was rather looking forward to it.

“Yuanyuan, you’ve misunderstood me. I didn’t mean to drive a wedge between us. I was just telling the truth… Forget it. If you really want to misunderstand me, I have nothing to say. After all, so much happened today because I invited you guys over.”

As she spoke, she pursed her lips and looked at Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu. “Fortunately, Miss Yan and Rainy are fine. Otherwise… I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape the blame even if I die ten thousand times.”

“Miss Yan, Rainy, I think you guys are quite frightened after today’s incident. Let’s get the driver to send you back. I’ll hitch a ride with Xiang Qing to the hospital to visit Cao Ming.”

Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu’s gazes met.

Let them go back first? Meanwhile, she was going to the hospital with someone else?

If anything happened to them on the way back to the Huo Family, she had a good reason for being absent.

“There’s no need to. We came out to play together and I’m partly responsible for Cao Ming’s injuries. I was so frightened that I couldn’t control the skiboard. Didn’t I hit him? Logically speaking, we should follow him to the hospital to take a look.”

“But Rainy, are you okay? You looked so frightened just now.”

Huo Siyu’s eyes flickered. Huo Sisi did not object strongly?

It seemed like Huo Sisi… was more complicated than she thought!

Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu thought of the same thing.

Yan Jinyu’s appraising gaze landed on Huo Sisi before looking at Huo Siyu.

Huo Siyu successfully understood what she meant. “I was indeed badly frightened just now, but I’ll be fine after I calm down. Let’s go to the hospital to take a look. No matter what, we came here to play together.”

“Alright, let’s go together.”

“What about Yuan Yuan and Young Master Yuan? Do you want to join us?”

Yuan Yuan said, “Of course.” If she said she wasn’t going now, wouldn’t she be contradicting herself?

Wasn’t that what she used to lecture Huo Sisi?

But she had a feeling she shouldn’t follow them.

“Sister, you can go to the hospital after you send me home,” Yuan Xi suddenly said.

“You want to go back?” She didn’t ask the driver to send them here. Yuan Yuan was the one who drove them here.

“Mm-hm.”

“Why don’t you go to the hospital with me? It’s still early anyway. There’s nothing for you to do after going back too.”

“I’m a little frightened. I want to go back and rest first.”

“…” Yuan Yuan.

“…” Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu. He was lying through his teeth.

However, they could tell that Yuan Xi seemed to have seen through something.

And he did not want to interfere.

“Besides, I’m not familiar with your friend either. It doesn’t matter if I go or not.”

“…I’ll send you back first then.”
