Su Jianguo took his last breath on his sickbed, still hearing the quarrel of his five children fighting over 300,000 yuan for surgery fees.
When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to t...
On the other side.
Inside the police station.
Su Jianguo had just finished signing Li Hongmei's letter of understanding, screwed the cap back on his pen, and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Mr. Su, thank you for your cooperation."
Officer Li put away the documents, a professional smile appearing on his face.
"We will handle Li Hongmei's case leniently, please rest assured."
Su Jianguo nodded, about to say something, when there was a sudden, urgent knocking on the office door.
A young police officer pushed open the door and entered, looking somewhat nervous.
"Captain Li, we just received a report of a knife attack at Beijing No. 1 Middle School. The suspect, Su Mingqiang, has been apprehended, but his injuries are serious, and he is being transported to the First Hospital."
Su Jianguo's face stiffened upon hearing Su Mingqiang's name.
Who are you talking about?
He asked, somewhat incredulously.
"Su Mingqiang?"
The young officer glanced at the notebook in his hand and confirmed.
"Yes, Su Mingqiang, age 28, lives in the East District..."
Before he could finish speaking, Su Jianguo had already rushed out of the office.
Arrived at the hospital.
Su Jianguo hurriedly stopped a passing nurse.
Where is Su Mingqiang?
He said anxiously.
The nurse was startled by him.
"Who are you? I don't know any Su Mingqiang."
Su Jianguo calmed himself down and spoke again.
"Nurse, could you please tell me where the injured person who was just brought in is?"
Upon hearing this, the nurse pointed to the end of the corridor.
"Over at the emergency room, but family members can't..."
Su Jianguo had already let go of her and was running towards the emergency room.
As he turned the corner, he saw a group of people gathered at the entrance of the emergency room.
Two police officers were taking notes, a young woman was sitting on a bench crying while holding a baby, and several medical staff were talking in hushed tones.
The weeping woman was Li Jinhua.
The baby in her arms was also crying, the piercing cries echoing down the corridor.
Su Jianguo strode forward, but one of the policemen stopped him.
"Who are you?"
"I am Su Mingqiang's father."
Su Jianguo asked somewhat urgently.
"How is he?"
The police officers exchanged a glance, and the older one spoke up.
"Mr. Su, your son is suspected of intentional assault, having fatally stabbed a man named Zhang Haiyang. Both are currently receiving emergency treatment."
Upon hearing this, Su Jianguo frowned.
"Why...why would he do that?"
The police officer glanced at Li Jinhua, who was crying, and lowered his voice.
"According to preliminary investigations, your son discovered the child was not his biological child and, in a fit of rage, retaliated with a knife. Ms. Li has already admitted that the child is hers with Zhang Haiyang."
Upon hearing this, Su Jianguo's gaze immediately turned to Li Jinhua.
The anger in his eyes was almost bursting out.
Li Jinhua noticed his gaze, flinched, and hugged the child even tighter.
"You bitch!"
Su Jianguo could no longer control himself. He took a step forward and slapped Su Jianguo hard across the face.
"Smack!"
The crisp sound of a slap echoed in the corridor.
Li Jinhua was knocked to the side by the blow, and a bright red handprint immediately appeared on her face.
The baby in her arms was frightened and cried even louder.
"stop!"
Two police officers immediately rushed up and grabbed Su Jianguo from both sides.
"Mr. Su, please calm down! It's illegal to assault someone in a hospital!"
Su Jianguo was breathing heavily, his anger unabated.
"She ruined my son! Do you know that? She lied to him for so long, making him raise someone else's child!"
We understand how you feel.
The police officer said sternly.
"But violence won't solve the problem. If you engage in any further aggressive behavior, we'll have to take you away as well."
Su Jianguo broke free from the policeman's grasp, staggered back a few steps, and leaned against the wall.
There was a long silence.
"How long has it been?"
He suddenly spoke, his voice low and hoarse.
How long ago was the surgery?
The policeman glanced at his watch.
"They arrived about forty minutes ago. Zhang Haiyang's injuries are serious, and he has lost a lot of blood; your son was stabbed in the abdomen, and his condition is not optimistic either."
Su Jianguo remained silent and sat down on a chair in the aisle, beginning to wait quietly.
One hour later.
"bite"
With a thud.
The operating room lights went out.
Su Jianguo looked up.
The door was pushed open, and two doctors came out at the same time, followed by two hospital beds that were pushed out.
"Su Mingqiang's family?"
"A doctor took off his mask and asked."
"I am his father!"
Su Jianguo hurriedly stepped forward.
"The surgery was successful. The patient's abdominal wound has been sutured. Although there was significant blood loss, the patient is not in life-threatening danger and needs to rest for two weeks."
The doctor spoke quickly, while gesturing for the nurse to bring the hospital bed over.
Su Jianguo's gaze fell on the first hospital bed.
Su Mingqiang's face was as pale as paper, his lips were chapped, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
His eyes were half-open, and he quickly turned his face away when he saw Li Jinhua, but his eyes suddenly reddened the moment he saw Su Jianguo.
"dad..."
Su Mingqiang's voice was so weak it was almost inaudible, but tears were already streaming down his face, soaking the pillow.
Su Jianguo walked to the bedside.
He reached out and gently stroked his son's forehead.
"Does it hurt?"
Su Jianguo asked softly, his voice gentle to the point that he himself didn't even realize.
Su Mingqiang shook his head, but his tears flowed even more fiercely.
He opened his mouth as if to say something, but was interrupted by a cough.
