School Beauty's Invincible Martial Expert

Before long, Liu Sisi braved the cold wind and returned with piping hot dumplings.

A big bowl of rich dumplings.

"Aunt Xiao, here are your dumplings," Liu Sisi hurriedly said.

"Hmm!" Mother Xiao nodded and asked, "Girl, how much do these dumplings cost? I'll pay you."

"Auntie, this is my treat," Liu Sisi said sweetly, "How much could a serving of dumplings possibly cost?"

"That won't do, earning money isn't easy," Aunt Xiao seriously said.

"If you give me money, I'll just leave," Liu Sisi protested hastily.

Seeing her determined attitude, Aunt Xiao could no longer insist and had to retract her hand that was reaching for money. The dumplings were delicious, and Mother Xiao hadn't eaten dinner the night before and had expended a lot of energy, so her stomach was already empty. Thus, she devoured the dumplings, clearing a large bowl in one go.

Liu Sisi was stunned, "Aunt Xiao, are you full? If not, I... I'll go buy another serving for you!"

"No need, I am already very full," Aunt Xiao quickly replied.

After breakfast, it was already 7:30 AM. After waiting a bit, Aunt Xiao asked, "Girl, when will my Xiao Han wake up?"

"I don't know about that," Liu Sisi shook her head, "He should wake up very soon. The nurse who just came on shift has already checked his temperature, everything is normal. There's nothing out of the ordinary. His bodily functions have also returned to normal levels."

"But why hasn't he woken up yet?" Aunt Xiao curiously asked.

"Maybe... maybe he's just very tired," Liu Sisi smiled, "He might wake up any minute now."

Aunt Xiao breathed a slight sigh of relief and then said, "Alright."

At that moment, the doctor arrived at work and, after checking the situation, instructed the nurses to move Xiao Han to a regular ward. Since Xiao Han's condition was not problematic anymore, he was moved to a regular ward for observation. Then they waited for him to wake up.

Aunt Xiao hurriedly followed to the regular ward to stay by her son's side.

Being able to touch her son's cheek by her own hand was a blissful feeling, an extremely blissful thing.

"Xiao Han, wake up quickly, mom has already forgiven you," Mother Xiao couldn't help sobbing. Since her husband's death, this strong woman had not cried no matter how tough and exhausting things got; she had gritted her teeth and borne it all. But her son was the centerpiece of her heart, her only flesh and blood. Even the slightest misery inflicted upon her son made her suffer intensely.

Liu Sisi comfortingly said at her side, "Aunt Xiao, please don't be too sad. Otherwise, it might upset you."

"As long as my son is fine, I am willing to die," Aunt Xiao's love for her son was fervent. She'd rather exchange her life for her son's life.

Liu Sisi was deeply moved. This was a mother's concern for her son, a mother's story of protecting her son with her life.

Cough, cough...

Suddenly, a violent cough erupted from Xiao Han at the bed head.

"Xiao Han," Mother Xiao instantly became excited, grabbing Xiao Han's hand, her right hand caressing his cheek.

"Mom..." Xiao Han slowly opened his eyes, "I just heard in my dream that you forgave me, is... is that true?"

"Mm-hmm, it's true!" Mother Xiao immediately nodded, "As long as you wake up, as long as you're all right, no matter what mistakes you've made, I forgive you all."

"Mom…" Xiao Han's eyes were moist.

"My son!" Mother Xiao embraced Xiao Han, sobbing deeply.

The grievances and suppression in her heart finally burst out at this moment. A night of worry and anxiety had bleached this middle-aged woman's hair white; a night of care and anxiety had deeply pained her heart.

Liu Sisi wiped her tears at the side. This was the love between mother and son, a deep love.

"Mom, I'm hungry," Xiao Han spoke.

"I'll go and buy you breakfast," Mother Xiao hurriedly said.

At this moment, Liu Sisi quickly said, "Auntie, let me go. What would you like?"

"Buy dumplings, my son's favorite, and make sure to add vinegar!" Mother Xiao instructed.

"Okay, I'm on it," said Liu Sisi, running out.

Xiao Han then noticed Liu Sisi at his side and curiously asked, "Mom, who is she?"

"She is a nurse at the hospital, she looked after you all last night, and she looked after me too," Mother Xiao said, "She's really a good girl. It's just too bad our Xiao family isn't fortunate enough to have this girl as a daughter-in-law."

"Mom, what are you talking about?" Xiao Han, having regained normal bodily functions and feeling normal again, made an effort to sit up. Mother Xiao hurriedly adjusted a pillow behind his back.

"Liu Sisi truly is a good girl," Mother Xiao sighed and then said, "She has a good personality and is also kind-hearted."

"Then she is sure to find a husband who is suitable for her!" Xiao Han smiled.

"You silly boy, I've asked her, and she's about your age," Mother Xiao gave him a look, then said, "She went to a technical secondary school, took the exam for the medical school, and now works at the hospital. So, you have a chance."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Mom, instead of caring about my health, you're concerned about this?" Xiao Han responded with annoyance.

"We're all concerned," Mother Xiao said. "Your future is also Xiao's family's future, understand?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiao Han nodded.

At that moment, Chen Zihan hurriedly arrived at the hospital. She hadn't seen Xiao Han at school that morning and only later found out that Xiao Han was sick. She rushed to the hospital to check on him and saw Xiao Han lying in the hospital bed. She hurriedly ran inside.

"Xiao Han, what... what happened to you?" Chen Zihan asked anxiously.

"Zi Han?" Xiao Han looked at her in surprise and asked, "How did you get here?"

"I noticed you hadn't been in class for a few days," Chen Zihan said worriedly. "I only found out today that you were sick, so I came to see you. Are you alright?"

"I'm fine!" Xiao Han shook his head.

Mother Xiao immediately recognized Chen Zihan as the girl who had come to their home to tutor Xiao Han that night.

"Zi Han, have a seat," Mother Xiao quickly said.

"Thank you, Auntie," Chen Zihan replied with a blush. "Xiao Han, are you really okay?"

"Yeah!" Xiao Han nodded. "I'm in pretty good shape, just a cold and a fever."

"You're hospitalized just for that?" Chen Zihan, unclear about the situation, looked at Xiao Han with irritation and said, "Do you know how critical the time is now? We need to review every day for the college entrance exams."

"I... I know!" Xiao Han quickly nodded. "But, I... I'm sick, right?"

"A little cold and fever, what does that matter?" Chen Zihan pursed her lips.

"Yes, yes, I've been too sensitive!" Xiao Han laughed.

Just then, Big Fatty hurriedly followed.

"Xiao Han, what's happened to you, man?" Big Fatty ran in, looking agitated.

"Oh, it's nothing!" Xiao Han saw the concern on Big Fatty's face.

When Big Fatty saw Chen Zihan, he smiled and said, "Yo, Chen Zihan? You've come to visit our Xiao Han too?"

"Since when did Xiao Han become yours?" Chen Zihan rebutted sharply.

"Right, Xiao Han certainly isn't mine," Big Fatty chuckled and said. "So Xiao Han is yours, right?"

"He's not mine either," Chen Zihan glared at Big Fatty angrily.

"Then he's mine," Big Fatty laughed heartily.

Seeing Chen Zihan embarrassed and flushed only made Big Fatty laugh harder. Chen Zihan, seeing how Big Fatty was teasing her, blushed uncontrollably. She stomped her foot, angrily saying, "I'm not going to argue with you anymore, I'm going back to school for classes."

With that, she turned and walked out the door.

Watching Chen Zihan's figure leaving, Big Fatty quickly said, "Chen Zihan, make sure you tutor our Xiao Han well when you get a chance."

"Get lost!" Chen Zihan retorted sharply.

When Big Fatty arrived, Mother Xiao went to get some hot water to help Xiao Han freshen up.

In the hospital room, Big Fatty plopped down on the bed and said, "Man, you're really lucky to have Chen Zihan so captivated, I don't know what charm you have that I don't. Why doesn't anyone in class like me?"

"You have a lot of charm," Xiao Han laughed. "How's Xiaoyan doing?"

"Pretty good, everything's going smoothly," Big Fatty grinned.

"She never suspected anything?" Xiao Han asked.

"She did suspect," Big Fatty nodded. "Suddenly having so much money and buying such an expensive motorcycle, she's not stupid. But I'm not dumb either; I made up a few excuses and reasons, and she believed me. But if I really get the Apple franchise going, I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it up!"

"Anyway, no matter what, you must not expose it," Xiao Han seriously advised. "We're still students, and we need to prioritize our studies. Also, absolutely no one else should know about this. If Yang Xiaoyan really asks, just say you're working part-time at the store."

"Right, right, that's a good excuse," Big Fatty immediately lit up with joy.

Just then, Liu Sisi came in with dumplings.

"Xiao Han, your dumplings are ready," Liu Sisi placed the dumplings on the bedside table, a sweet smile on her lips.

"Wow, you really are lucky, man," Big Fatty immediately took a liking to Liu Sisi's beauty.

Liu Sisi was a very innocent girl, nineteen years old, who had just graduated from nursing school and had started working at People's Hospital as a contract worker. Although the job was hard and the pay was meager, she firmly believed that as long as she worked hard, she could become a full-fledged nurse.

Moreover, now becoming a nurse required passing an exam, and as long as she passed, she could become a real nurse.

Big Fatty's eyes were like two scanning camera lenses, frantically scanning over Liu Sisi's body.

However, Liu Sisi seemed to have already gotten used to such gazes.

"Xiao Han, eat your breakfast while it's hot, or it'll get cold," Liu Sisi said in an elder sisterly tone.

"Yes," Xiao Han nodded; the girl in front of him was indeed very pretty. Her long black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and her delicate doll-like face, when she smiled, showed two shallow dimples. Extremely beautiful, without any seductive posture or voluptuous figure. Yet, she had an angelic face and a pair of charming eyes. These were dark, large eyes that almost seemed to speak.

Truly enchanting.
