She voiced her complaints once more, but the young nurse listened with utter disdain.
“If you ask me, this couple is like a pair of leeches. Who knows who they might swindle next? Ah,
whoever gets involved with them is just plain unlucky, ending up with such scum…”
After leaving the hospital, Wilfrid thought for a moment and decided to text his sister via WhatsApp:
Dad’s fine, Sis. He just has acute gastroenteritis. It’s nothing serious, so you don’t need to worry. I
heard they called you, I’m sorry for causing you trouble. I really am.
When Neera saw this message, she immediately called him back without a second thought.
“Sis?” Wilfrid froze, his voice filled with surprise and a hint of uncertainty.
“Yes, Wilfrid. It’s me. How have you been lately? I haven’t contacted you for a while. I’ve been really
busy, otherwise I could have called you more often,” Neera said with a smile.
Wilfrid was overjoyed and quickly said, “It’s all right, Sis. I know you’re busy. Just focus on your work,
everything is fine here, so you don’t need to worry about me. When you have some free time, come
back and I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Neera chuckled. “Why would you, as my younger brother, need to treat me to a meal? You’re still a
student. If anyone should be treating, it should be me, as your older sister.”
Wilfrid smiled shyly. “I’m an adult now. In fact, I already turned eighteen this year, so I’m a responsible
man now. It’s just a meal, Sis. Do you really have to argue with me over it? Can’t you just let your little
brother show off a bit?”
Neera was greatly comforted, her eyes filled with joy and relief.
“All right, then. It seems you have truly grown into a man, Wilfrid. Fine, I’ll come to see you once I
return.”
Speaking of this, she recalled something and added, “You don’t have to wait for me to return, though.
My aunt and uncle are going to have a wedding soon, so I’ll buy you a plane ticket and help you with
the visa. You can just fly over here to attend the wedding.”
Wilfrid really wanted to go, and he was quite excited after hearing about it. However, his excitement
quickly faded away.
“I’m afraid it might not be appropriate for me to go, Sis. Let’s just forget about it. Please help me convey
my best wishes to them. I sincerely hope they will enjoy a long and happy life together.”
“What’s the matter? Is it the academic pressure? Oh right, I forgot that you’re in your final year of high
school. Are you preparing for a huge exam? How are your studies coming along? Given your
intelligence and wisdom, you should have no problem, right?”
“Mhmm… I’m fine.”
“That’s good to hear. I hope you can come over if you have the time. It won’t take up too much of your
time. If you’re having any difficulties with your studies, there are people here who can guide you.”
She extended a sincere invitation, but Wilfrid still declined after giving it some thought.
“There’s really no need to trouble yourself, Sis. I’m not going.”

The smile at the corner of Neera’s mouth slightly faded as she immediately figured out the reason
behind it.
“I-Is it because of your parents?”
After a moment of hesitation, Wilfrid finally began to speak, his voice slightly hoarse.
“Yeah. I’m worried that they’ll want to follow along if they find out that I’m going. That could end up
causing you more trouble, which wouldn’t be good.”
Neera fell silent for a moment, pondering. In the end, she didn’t insist and chose to respect his
decision.
“All right, follow your heart, then. It’s okay if you can’t make it. I’ll pass on your congratulations for you.”
Then, she changed the subject and started talking about the matter that Wilfrid had just mentioned in
his text message.
“Wilfrid, you don’t need to worry about the issues between me and your parents. All you need to do is
focus on your studies. You don’t need to concern yourself with anything else. I’ll handle it myself, so
don’t let these matters affect your mood or life. Do you understand?”
Wilfrid bit the corner of his lip, his expression somewhat pained.
“But, they always cause you trouble, and they even try to ask you for money at every chance they get.
Our family isn’t actually so poor that we can’t make ends meet. We can manage a normal life just fine,
so don’t listen to their nonsense. Ignore them. They… They are just a bit greedy.”
Even though it was inappropriate for him to talk about his parents behind their backs, he really had no
choice. He simply couldn’t ignore it any longer.
“I understand; don’t worry. As I’ve said before, what you need to do now is to take good care of
yourself, focus on your studies, and aim for a good university. Nothing else matters, got it?” Neera
replied softly.
Then, she asked again, “By the way, why haven’t I seen you spending the money on that card? Didn’t
we agree that you should treat yourself to some good food and take care of yourself? This is the time
when you’re growing, so you need to eat well. Don’t ever be stingy with yourself.”
Wilfrid nodded in response. Then, realizing that she couldn’t see him, he obediently uttered, “Okay. I
know, Sis. Don’t worry; I’ll take good care of myself. You’re so busy over there, so you need to make
sure to take care of yourself too.”
Neera said with a smile, “Okay. Oh, by the way, there’s something I forgot to tell you because I’ve been
busy. I got married.”
Wilfrid was taken aback quite intensely.
