Xu Jian stood by the bed, held his mother's hand, and whispered, "Mom, wake up! Someone's here to save us. No one will dare to hit us anymore."

Xu Jian spoke while crying, but his mother did not wake up, and he was worried that she would never wake up again.

After Song Chunli finished eating, she saw her child silently shedding tears in front of his mother and said, "Xiao Jian, don't cry. From now on, Grandma will protect you and your mother."

Around 10 o'clock, Director Wang came over in person.

He Tiantian didn't move, but said softly, "Director Wang, I want to ask what exactly wronged my sister suffered?"

Director Wang cursed the Xu family inwardly, thinking they were utterly despicable. Even if someone was just an ordinary person, they shouldn't have tormented them like this.

And she's the daughter of a high-ranking official; they're really asking for trouble.

Although he was also curious about how the daughter of a high-ranking official ended up here, it was a private matter for the family, so he didn't pry.

"Yu Weiwei was originally a textile factory worker. She fell in love with and married Xu Kaifa. A year after their marriage, she gave birth to Xu Jian. Their life was bumpy but relatively peaceful. Until half a year ago, Yu Weiwei was in a car accident. The driver paid 30,000 yuan in compensation, but Xu Kaifa's mother took her home before she was fully recovered and didn't take good care of her. After that, Yu Weiwei's leg became chronically injured. Xu Kaifa disliked that Yu Weiwei had become involved with a widow. Yu Weiwei proposed that she would agree to a divorce if she could have Xu Jian, but the Xu family refused. After that, Xu's mother didn't want to give Yu Weiwei any money, so she thought..." Director Wang dared not hide anything, because these things could be found out with an investigation.

Upon hearing this, Song Chunli trembled with anger, her face turning red and then pale.

This family is inhuman!

Huo Yingjie quickly stepped forward and took his aunt's hand to help Song Chunli calm down, saying, "Aunt, calm down, calm down, take a deep breath, take a deep breath."

Song Chunli took a few deep breaths and said through gritted teeth, "They just want to torture my daughter to death, burn her to ashes, and leave nothing behind. The Xu family is truly heartless!"

Song Chunli is quite old and has seen a lot, but she has never seen such a heartless family.

What a heartless bastard!

This is outrageous!

After a while, Song Chunli said again, "Director Wang, we're going to report this to the police now, get my daughter and grandson examined, and make sure the Xu family is bankrupt and spends their lives in jail."

Director Wang nodded repeatedly and said, "I will send someone to do this right away."

Song Chunli knew that her family members were all in government service. Although she had the ability to crush the Xu family, she couldn't do that and create future trouble for the Huo family.

Therefore, it's best to take legal action. As for whether the Xu family lives or dies after the storm has passed, what does that have to do with the Huo family?

With Song Chunli making the decisions, Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian felt much more relaxed.

"Yingjie, go call your grandfather, grandmother, and uncle to reassure them," He Tiantian reminded him, guessing that the elders in the family hadn't slept last night either.

"By the way, Yingjie, go and call your grandfather, grandmother, and uncle quickly," Song Chunli said hurriedly, wiping away tears from the corners of her eyes. "Yingqi was the youngest child in the family, and being a girl, her grandfather, grandmother, and I spoiled her. We never expected that this spoiling would lead to her being unable to distinguish right from wrong, being taken advantage of, and harming the Huo family. But seeing her like this breaks my heart."

Before having children, He Tiantian might not have fully understood Song Chunli's feelings.

But now she is a mother of three.

Huo Ruimin is her only daughter. Even if she makes a mistake and the whole world doesn't forgive her, she, as her mother, will still do everything she can to protect her.

This is a mother's instinct.

“Aunt, I understand you,” He Tiantian said. “Life is the best teacher. After experiencing so much, I believe Yingqi will learn a lot.”

"I hope so," Song Chunli said. "As the old saying goes, 'A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit.' She has suffered so many losses, so she can learn from them."

"Yes, they will," He Tiantian comforted them. Unless they're an idiot, anyone with a normal brain will learn from their mistakes.

After a while, He Tiantian said, "Yingjie, take your aunt to the hotel to rest. I've already booked a room for her."

"I don't want to go back." Song Chunli shook her head. She was worried about her daughter until she woke up.

Huo Yingjie comforted her, "Auntie, you should go back and rest first. When Yingqi wakes up, Tiantian will call us."

"Yes, Auntie, you must take care of yourself," He Tiantian said, trying to persuade her aunt to leave.

Song Chunli thought about it and realized this wasn't something that could be resolved quickly, so she nodded and said, "Alright, to avoid you worrying, I'll go back and rest. Call me as soon as Yingqi wakes up."

“Yes, I will, Auntie,” He Tiantian said. “Yingjie, you take Auntie there.”

"Okay, I'll go take a shower and freshen up my clothes," Huo Yingjie said, taking the room key from He Tiantian.

After Huo Yingjie and Song Chunli left, He Tiantian and Xu Jian stayed with Huo Yingqi.

The lunch was also bought by Wei Yuanyuan from outside.

Around 3 p.m., Xu Jian fell asleep next to his mother.

He Tiantian was also lounging on the sofa, taking a nap, when she suddenly heard Xu Jian exclaim in surprise.

"Mom, Mom, you're awake?" Xu Jian said excitedly, holding his mother's hand tightly.

The woman's deep-set eyes darted around, looking at Xu Jian, and she forced a smile: "Xiao Jian..."

His voice was hoarse, which was because he hadn't drunk water for several days.

He Tiantian feeds her some water every hour, so she can still speak.

He Tiantian hurriedly pressed the button by the bedside to notify the doctor and nurses that the patient had woken up.

Huo Yingqi then noticed He Tiantian, her eyes widening as she exclaimed, "You...you..."

“Mom, this is Auntie,” Xu Jian said. “I went to find Auntie to rescue us. Grandma and Dad won’t dare to hit us anymore. Mom, are you hungry? There’s still some porridge in the thermos. I’ll feed you.”

At this moment, Huo Yingqi couldn't say anything; only tears kept flowing down her face.

These are tears of shame.

These are tears of apology.

These are tears of survivors.

"I...I'm sorry," Huo Yingqi said. Ever since the Huo family's accident, she had realized that she had made a huge mistake, so even though things were tough here, she never thought of going to her parents.

Because she was too ashamed to face her parents and relatives.

He Tiantian smiled and said, "It's all in the past, don't think about it so much."

At this moment, the doctor and nurses came in, examined Huo Yingqi, and said, "Hmm, the recovery is good. You can eat some porridge now."

The nurse helped raise the bed so that Huo Yingqi could sit up, and also helped pull over the small table on the bed.

After thanking the doctor, He Tiantian poured some porridge, intending to feed Huo Yingqi.
