Low Kangyu was resting in the hospital. All ten fingers were wrapped like a mummy. Looking at the ceiling in daze, he recalled what happened last night.
He sat up and ready to press the call button. With his injured hand, he can't do anything.
Just then, the door opened. Mo Zhexuan came in followed by Lu Jingyi behind him.
Looking at those two, Low Kangyu recalled how these two tortured him was still in his mind. Normally, people would go crazy and wanted them dead seeing the person who tortured them.
He thought he was abnormal not to have this killing intent against them after last night. His own mentality surprised himself.
Perhaps because he was free from living a hell.
"How are you? Feeling better?"
"Mm."
"Let me introduce you. My fiancée, Lu Jingyi."
Lu Jingyi then sat on a chair beside the bed. Mo Zhexuan left and let the two talk.
"Low Kangyu, I'm sorry about yesterday."
Why was she apologizing? He tried to kidnap her but she's saying sorry to him instead.
"Why are you apologizing? I'm the one who should apologize to you."
Lu Jingyi chuckled by his words.
"Well, I kicked and stepped on you. Now that you're on our side, I will treat you like a family. I heard from Zhexuan that you parents died when your five and had been living without shelter and had difficulty in raising yourself."
"Are you taking a pity on me?"
"Not quite. But a part of it. Zhexuan told me after your recovery, your job was to act as a bodyguard and protect me. From the way I see it, you are only twenty years old. I had a discussion with Zhexuan. Do you want to study?"
Low Kangyu didn't say anything. Study? Could he handle it? He never gone to school before. He picked up skills from his so called jobs only.
"If you want to study, we'll provide you school fees and other things you need. But if you don't want to, you could stay as my bodyguard as I mentioned just now."
"Why are you guys being so nice to me? A stanger. I don't understand."
"Because I don't want people like you to go down on the wrong path by doing illegal jobs just to raise oneself. I'm sure you had some talent inside you or some hobby. Live a normal life and had a wonderful dream job."
Low Kangyu then went quiet. There's no one in the world treated him like a human and care for his being better other than Lu Jingyi and Mo Zhexuan.
Most of the people treated him like a slave and underlings. One wrong mistake and the ending was terrible.
"I have another option for you. Be my younger brother. I had always wanted a younger brother."
Lu Jingyi smiled. She patted his head and ruffled his hair like a big sister who liked to mess with her younger brother's hair.
Her action made him want to tear up. He missed....he missed someone who would care for him and recalling his parents who always praised him by patting his head.
He then turned his face to the other side not facing Lu Jingyi and tears dropped sliding down to his chin.
Was this what God had prepared for him?
After a while, he wiped his tears and faced Lu Jingyi.
"C-Can I call you sister?"
"Of course, you can." Lu Jingyi was happy that he call her sister.
"Sister Lu. I have decided to become your bodyguard. Thank you for treating me like your family. I promise to do my best for you. My speciality was camouflaging with the surrounding. Hehe....."
Lu Jingyi was glad he was finally smiling. Lu Jingyi had a soft spot for people like him. She would like to help them as much as she could.
