Chapter 1508: Learned My Lesson
It turned out she did not have time to think about her family; she had to be a heroine.
“Mom, I’m sorry. I won’t do it again. Mom, please don’t be angry.” Jiang Yao lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
“I’m not angry.”
Mrs. Lu’s tears fell. “I’m worried. I feel sorry for you, silly girl! A man should go out and make a living. Why would a girl like you want to join in the fun? You’re lucky to be alive this time. What if you died? Are you trying to make us worry?”
When she saw Mrs. Lu cry so fiercely, Jiang Yao was glad that she did not tell them that a plane crash had caused her injury. Otherwise, it would have scared Mr. and Mrs. Lu even more.
“What happened in the first month of school?” Mr. Lu suddenly remembered that. “Not long after you left, the old woman from the Lin family had looked for you. We said that you went back to the university. We didn’t expect her to look for you there. After that, she came back and spread the news about that. That was how we found out that you did not go to school.”
“At that time—”
Jiang Yao was hesitant; she did not know what to say. Lu Xingzhi reached out to hold her hand. Then, he said, “Before the National Day, I had a mission. I was seriously injured. Yaoyao got some time off to go to Jindo City to take care of me. I was afraid that you would worry, so I told her to hide it from you.”
Mrs. Lu began to cry again. She could no longer hold her tears back.
“Seriously injured? How serious were your injuries?” It must have been pretty serious if Jiang Yao had to take care of him in Jindo City for a month.
Mr. Lu was a grown man, and even he was frightened when he heard about Lu Xingzhi’s serious injury. If his son had used the words serious injury to describe his wounds, then it must have been life-threatening.
He understood his son; he would not complain even if he had broken a bone or leg. So, he must have been in some danger due to the injuries.
“It doesn’t matter; it’s all over. I’m fine now.” Lu Xingzhi did not want to explain more about it. “It won’t happen again. Mom, Dad, I’m sorry for worrying you.”
“It’s fine. As long as you’re okay. It’s good that you know you’re wrong anyway.” Mr. Lu did not ask further questions as he knew it was useless.
Mrs. Lu sobbed as she led Jiang Yao to the sofa to sit down. At the same time, she scolded Lu Xingzhi. “You said that Jiang Yao is home to heal. Yes, you forgot to let her sit down or take her upstairs to rest.”
“Mom, I’ve been sitting on the bus anyway. Even though I have to recuperate, I can’t stay still. Otherwise, I can’t take it. I had no idea the town would spread such rumors about me,” Jiang Yao said as she wiped the tears from Mrs. Lu’s cheeks. “You must have felt very aggrieved because of that, Mom, Dad.”
“Of course not. I never believed that my daughter-in-law would do such a thing. See, they were wrong. My daughter-in-law is a heroine. Oh, right! You mentioned a medal? Come on, show it to us!”
Jiang Yao’s hands were soft and warm. Mrs… Lu’s mood calmed when Jiang Yao comforted her.
