She Was Ashamed to Marry a Fool, But Was Carried by Her Foolish Husband

Yao Tongjia, who had just sent her father to prison in modern times, was in a plane crash and transmigrated into a period novel. What? Their family of three are all cannon fodder, meant to make way...

Chapter 68 Attack

"What happened? Where did you find her?" Ruan Shengpeng was incredulous. He had just asked someone for the address, and the next day she was bleeding and injured.

He absolutely refused to believe it was a coincidence, but who was so resourceful? He had only asked for the address half a day ago, and someone had already gotten hurt.

"Ah Hai, do you think it was an accident or deliberate?" the three asked as they walked toward the emergency room.

"On the surface, it was an accident. Sister Huang fell off her bicycle, hit her head on a rock, and fainted on the ground. If I hadn't happened to be passing by, it would have been a disaster."

"With such cold weather, Sister Huang must have either bled to death or frozen to death outside!"

Was it really done by someone? Based on his experience with completing tasks, Ruan Shengpeng was very skeptical.

The three people sat outside the emergency room. After a short while, a middle-aged man rushed in, sweating profusely despite the cold weather: "What happened? How did she get injured? Wasn't she supposed to be at work?"

A nurse approached him: "Brother-in-law Huang, the head nurse fell off her bicycle and hit her head on a rock. She lost a lot of blood and also suffered frostbite outside. Her condition is quite serious."

"I ride this road every day, I know it like the back of my hand, how could I fall? And I sweep that road myself, how come there are stones here all of a sudden? Who the hell put them there?"

The man had a visibly injured foot and walked with a limp, yet he exuded an imposing aura. Old Master Ruan and Ruan Shengpeng exchanged a glance: This is a retired soldier!

Ruan Shengpeng stepped forward and asked, "Hello, are you Sister Huang's husband? A retired soldier?"

The man concealed the sadness in his eyes and looked sharply at Ruan Shengpeng: "I am a retired soldier, and also Nurse Huang's man. And you are?"

Instead of answering, Ruan Shengpeng asked, "Did Sister Huang go home today looking for a letter?"

The man was now flustered: "How did you know? Who are you?"

The man grabbed Ruan Shengpeng in agitation, completely disregarding his own feet. Ruan Shengpeng's legs were also weak, and the two of them immediately lost their balance and were about to fall.

Ah Hai saw that one person held onto one arm and pushed the two people onto chairs, while he stood by and protected his leader.

"I asked Sister Huang to look for that letter. I wanted to ask if it has been found?"

"The letter has been found. She was almost late for work because of looking for the letter. That's probably why she was in such a rush. You've really put her in a bad situation!"

Ruan Shengpeng lowered his head upon hearing this reason: "I'm sorry, I didn't want this to happen either. I will provide compensation. The letter has been found. Do you know where she put it?"

"It was in her coat pocket. I saw her put it there when she left. Yes, it was that coat!" Sister Huang's coat had blood and snow water on it.

Before going in for emergency treatment, the nurse took off her clothes and left them outside the emergency room door.

Sister Huang's husband got up to get his clothes, then rummaged through his pockets and found some change, but no letter.

This made Ruan Shengpeng's face turn cold: "Brother Hai, did you see the letter when you rescued Sister Huang?"

Without even thinking, Hai Ge replied, "No, absolutely no letter!"

When soldiers are on a mission, they always observe the route and look at the surroundings. He was very certain that there was no message on the ground!

Now Ruan Shengpeng was very certain: "Sister Huang's fall was definitely not an accident. Brother Hai, could you please go and check on her?"

Ah Hai looked at Grandpa Ruan, who nodded: "It's slippery outside, be careful!"

Ahai nodded and went out. The remaining three people waited quietly at the door of the emergency room. No one spoke. In this suffocating atmosphere, after an unknown amount of time, the door of the emergency room opened.

Today, the surgery performed on Head Nurse Huang was performed by the head of their department. The head of the department came out looking exhausted and was immediately surrounded by two people. Huang's brother-in-law immediately asked, "Director, how is my wife?"

The doctor took off his mask: "The surgery was successful. I cleaned out the blood clots on her head, but we still need to see if she can survive the 24-hour critical period."

"Tell me how you want to take care of it, and I'll stay here tonight!"

"Have her stay in the intensive care unit tonight. There will be nurses looking after her. You can go back and rest tonight. Once she comes out of the intensive care unit, you'll be the one to stay with her."

Brother-in-law Huang shook his head: "I'll stay here and watch over her, since there's no one else at home anyway!"

Ruan Shengpeng spoke up again: "Here's what we've got. The ICU is very close to my ward. You'll sleep in the other bed in my ward tonight. Go back now and get some daily necessities!"

Brother-in-law Huang hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Thank you, I'll be right back!"

"It's snowing outside, and the ground is slippery. You should walk slowly. If you fall, I don't know who will take care of you!"

These words are harsh, but they are also the truth. They only have each other; they really can't both lie down together.

Brother-in-law Huang came back with Ah Hai. The two of them were covered in cold air and didn't dare to go into the ward right away. They let the cold air out at the door before entering the ward. As soon as they entered, they were overwhelmed by the warmth.

The two-person ward is equipped with a stove where you can put charcoal in to burn, and a kettle can be placed on top to boil water or steam food.

Seeing them come in, Ruan Shengpeng quickly poured a glass of water for each of them. Taking a sip, he realized it was brown sugar ginger tea; the taste was really intoxicating, perfect for preventing a cold on a snowy day like this.

After the two finished their brown sugar ginger tea, Ruan Shengpeng couldn't wait to ask, "How did you find out?"

Ah Hai shook his head: "The road is very clean, there isn't a single trace!"

Ruan Shengpeng was somewhat disappointed: "There wasn't a trace at all!"

“Yes, there isn’t a trace at all!” Ahai emphasized again!

"You mean, the traces were erased? Was Sister Huang's accident caused by someone?"

“A road with people coming and going, even if few people walk on it, there will still be some traces. But apart from Sister Huang, there are absolutely no traces on it. This is very abnormal!”

"I'm pretty sure someone deliberately splashed water on the road to make Sister Huang's bicycle slip, and then placed several stones within the area where she fell!"

"The person who planned all this has excellent calculation skills. The stones were placed in positions that would hit Sister Huang on the head, causing her to lose consciousness!"

That's truly insidious, killing without a trace. Even if they're discovered, so what? They bear absolutely no responsibility!

"Are we just going to swallow this bitter pill like this?" Ruan Shengpeng thought of the letter, and the address on it: "Do you know the address on the letter?"

Brother-in-law Huang immediately shook his head: "I never rummage through things, and I've never seen the address on it."

"You really haven't seen it?" Ruan Shengpeng's eyes were full of disappointment!

Sigh! Why be so rule-abiding? Shouldn't couples discuss everything? What should we do? Where else can we find an address?
