Chapter 103: Chapter 103 Divorce (8)_1 Chapter 103: Chapter 103 Divorce (8)_1 “She didn’t dare say this in front of the Ruan Family, but she started complaining in front of her own family: ‘I don’t know what’s so special about that little girl for them to treasure her so much.’

But neither the Li Family nor Liao Laifu cared about this. How could they pay any mind to a mere girl when all their attention was focused on the fact that Ruan Jianguo was planning to build a new house?

How much money would that cost!

If he could also scrape together some money from the Ruanlin Family, he might even be able to buy an electrical appliance. That way, he would have enough face in front of his Yue Family.

Thinking of this, Liao Laifu said to Liao Zhaoji, ‘Sister, are you going back to the hospital tonight?’

Liao Zhaoji, remembering the harsh words Ruan Jiandang had said to her when she’d run out, wasn’t daring to go back. But after hearing what the Li Family had said, she felt she should return.

Ruan Jiandang needed her at this time, and as long as she served him well, she could definitely make him let go of his anger.

So she nodded.

‘Alright then, I’ll accompany you back to the hospital tonight,’ Liao Laifu said.

‘What are you going for?’ Liao Zhaoji looked at him, puzzled.

‘I’m going to see my brother-in-law. He’s been in the hospital for a few days now. I was supposed to visit yesterday, but something came up and I didn’t make it. I’ve been feeling guilty,’ Liao Laifu said, as if he actually cared a great deal about Ruan Jiandang.

Upon hearing this, Liao Zhaoji was deeply touched.

The Li Family added from the side, ‘That’s good, your brother-in-law is such a big man. It’s better to have someone look after him in case something happens. He might not have eaten tonight yet. I’ll cook some porridge for him, make an egg soup, and you can take it with you later.’

Liao Zhaoji looked at them, even more moved, feeling that compared to the Ruanlin Family who didn’t care about their own son and wouldn’t even help pay for the medical expenses, her own family was just so much better. She also wanted Ruan Jiandang to see that her family were the ones who genuinely cared for him.

After dinner, Liao Zhaoji and Liao Laifu headed back to the hospital in the dark.

The hospital canteen had food, and it was cheap. After Ruan Jun finished class, he went to the hospital, didn’t see his mom, but didn’t mind. He got food from the canteen for Ruan Jiandang and sat down on a chair to do his homework, to read.

‘Jiandang, see who’s come to visit you.’ Liao Zhaoji’s voice arrived before she did.

Ruan Jiandang and Ruan Jun turned their heads at the same time.

They saw Liao Zhaoji carrying a lunch box, walking in with Liao Laifu.

With a flattering smile, Liao Laifu called out to Ruan Jiandang, ‘Brother-in-law, I’ve come to see you. I’ve been so busy these past days, but as soon as I found the time tonight, I came right over.’

‘Yeah, Laifu really put his heart into it, insisting on coming to see you despite it being so late,’ Liao Zhaoji chimed in smoothly, as if none of the afternoon’s events had happened. She put down the lunch box and glanced at the one in Ruan Jiandang’s hand with a look of concern, ‘You’re eating canteen food? It’s not nutritious. I cooked you some porridge, and mom even made you an egg soup, especially to nourish your body.’

She reached for Ruan Jiandang’s lunch box as she spoke.

But before she could touch it, Ruan Jiandang opened it.

He looked at her expressionlessly: ‘I’m fine with this.’ Then he turned to Liao Laifu, not mincing his words: ‘Jianguo and your sister are about to divorce, so you needn’t call me brother-in-law anymore.’

‘Jiandang…’ Liao Zhaoji called out, wounded, her eyes reddening.

Liao Laifu was taken aback, probably not expecting Ruan Jiandang to be so blunt and dismissive.
