Chapter 198 Difficult Birth, Retribution

Chapter 198 Difficult Birth, Retribution

Dong Xiangxiang was already more than eight months pregnant, a dangerous time, and Jiang Qiubai's attack on her caused her serious injury, and she immediately started bleeding from her lower body.

Noticing the wetness beneath her, Dong Xiangxiang's face instantly turned pale.

Dong Xiangxiang knew better than anyone what it took for her to marry Ren Yongsheng, and this child absolutely could not be harmed!

She screamed at the top of her lungs:

"My child, my child!"

"Doctor, help!"

Everything happened so fast that no one present could react in time.

Chang Dafeng watched in horror as large patches of blood spread.

Good heavens! She...she just wanted to hit Jiang Qiubai, but she didn't run into Dong Xiangxiang!

He muttered to himself, "This has nothing to do with me!"

"I didn't touch her!"

Chang Dafeng clutched her chest and looked at Jiang Qiubai with suspicion and uncertainty.

Damn it, I never would have guessed that Jiang Qiubai, that little bitch, is so ruthless!

She's even more ruthless than that wicked old woman.

After all, he had only fought with Guan Ailian, and never thought of touching Dong Xiangxiang, who was heavily pregnant.

Anyone who has given birth knows that at this stage of pregnancy, there's a real risk of both mother and child dying.

The bloodstains under Dong Xiangxiang's body increased, and her face quickly turned pale. She looked as if she was about to faint.

Chang Dafeng tentatively called out, "Ren family's daughter-in-law, Ren family's daughter-in-law!"

Dong Xiangxiang did not respond.

Chang Dafeng was startled. "This is bad!"

She was also afraid that something might happen to the child in Dong Xiangxiang's belly, and that Guan Ailian, that fake fairy, would definitely not let her go.

Haiyang had finally been transferred back to the security department, and now her family can't afford any more trouble.

In critical moments, Chang Dafeng can still distinguish between what is important and what is urgent.

Chang Dafeng hurriedly ran outside to call the doctor. Just then, she saw a doctor making rounds with two nurses in the corridor. The old lady grabbed the doctor and pulled him inside.

"Doctor, doctor, quick! A pregnant woman is bleeding!"

...

Outside the delivery room, Chang Dafeng and Zheng Haiyang, mother and son, stood together, waiting anxiously. Their expressions were so sincere that an outsider might mistake them for the mother's husband and mother-in-law.

Zheng Haiyang, with his head hunched over, took a cigarette out of his pocket.

He never imagined that after paying his medical bills, while he was downstairs having a smoke, Jiang Qiubai would cause so much trouble.

If the child is alright, that's fine. But if something really happens, then I'll have a huge grudge against the Ren family.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Smoking isn't allowed in the hospital!"

Zheng Haiyang had just lit a cigarette when a passing nurse came over and frowned, trying to stop him.

His tone was very harsh, "Don't you have any manners! Can't you see this is a delivery room? You're smoking here, can't you even tolerate it for a little while? Your wife is still giving birth inside!"

I wonder whose relative she is. She's so unlucky to have married a man like that!

Zheng Haiyang snapped out of his daze and said with a fawning smile, "Sorry, sorry, I forgot for a moment, it's going out now, it's going out now!"

Due to his previous hospitalizations, Zheng Haiyang is now very intimidated by hospital nurses and unconsciously becomes subservient to them.

He subconsciously put out the cigarette.

The nurse watched him put out his cigarette before leaving, satisfied.

Zheng Haiyang glared fiercely at the culprit. It was all because of this bitch!

If we weren't in the hospital, I would have punched her a few times. What a troublemaker!

Jiang Qiubai, leaning on his cane, sat on the other side, a world unto himself, cowering and not daring to look up.

It seemed like he was afraid the mother and son would hit him.

But upon closer inspection, a faint smile could be seen on her lowered face.

It would be best if Dong Xiangxiang's child could not be born.

Why are these women able to get pregnant so easily?

Why are they so lucky?

Dong Xiangxiang tricked me and then came to brag and make sarcastic remarks in front of me. Does she really think I'm made of clay?

Jiang Qiubai looked at the closed door of the delivery room with great pleasure.

Soon after receiving the news, Guan Ailian and Ren Wenhua rushed over.

Just then, the delivery room door opened, and a nurse came out carrying a baby. "Dong Xiangxiang's family, mother and child are safe!"

Upon learning that the child was alright, the two breathed a huge sigh of relief.

I hurried to see the baby in the nurse's arms.

"Oh my, my grandson, you are such a lucky man!"

The nurse frowned. "Did you bring a baby blanket? The mother's delivery was sudden, and we weren't prepared at all. The baby can't stay naked like this forever."

Guan Ailian and Ren Wenhua were stunned. They had been in a panic when they heard the news. One of them rushed over from the ward, and the other was a grown man who had never expected this.

The nurse gave them a speechless look; she had never seen such unreliable grandparents.

"Okay then, you go back and get it first, and I'll borrow some from other mothers who have given birth."

"Okay! Thank you, young comrade!"

Guan Ailian naturally responded to all requests.

"The new mother is weak and needs to be hospitalized for observation for another week."

"Okay, okay!"

The elderly couple only have their grandson in their eyes now, so they don't care about anything else and naturally agree with everything they say.

While the joy of the newborn lingered on one side, the Zheng family mother and son also breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that the child was alright; if the child was alright, then it shouldn't be a big deal.

Just as the mother and son were thinking this, Guan Ailian turned around and, her face full of anger, pointed at Zheng Haiyang and Jiang Qiubai's noses and cursed, "You shameless sluts! My perfectly good grandson was almost ruined by you, you shameless bastard! You slut, may you die a horrible death and be childless! You're just a waste of food!"

"Don't think you can get into my house just because you did something like this. If anything happens to my precious grandson, you little bitch, I'll make you regret it!"

Jiang Qiubai: ...Who wants to enter their house?

She wouldn't even look at Ren Yongsheng, who couldn't live without sleeping with a woman for a day.

"You have to pay up! You must pay up!"

"Otherwise, we'll call the police and have this heartless, rotten-hearted murderer arrested!"

Upon hearing about the compensation, Chang Dafeng, who was already feeling a little guilty, immediately jumped out and said, "Pah! You're dreaming! My family doesn't have any money to pay! Your grandson is fine, why would we need to pay compensation!"

“Your daughter-in-law was just trying to harm people. My grandson is lucky to be alive. But your daughter-in-law’s actions constitute attempted murder, and she will still go to jail!” Guan Ailian continued to press her.

Zheng Haiyang grabbed a handful of his hair in frustration and yelled, "Take it or leave it! Jiang Qiubai has already slept with your Ren Yongsheng anyway!"

There's no money at home right now. The Ren family is so persistent, let them arrest me if they want. Anyway, I don't want Jiang Qiubai as my wife anymore!

Chang Dafeng's eyes darted around, and she immediately shouted, "That's right! Arrest me if you want! We don't want this wife anymore!"

Jiang Qiubai's expression changed slightly.

Unexpectedly, the mother and son actually abandoned her.

She raised her head slightly, her eyes looking pitifully at Zheng Haiyang, "Haiyang..."

Zheng Haiyang disliked the idea of ​​starting the conversation elsewhere.

What is this woman thinking? She's already cheated on him, and she still wants to seduce him?

Jiang Qiubai pursed her lips anxiously. That bastard!

He's actually going to send his wife to jail? Doesn't he care about losing face?!

The mother and son's nonchalant attitude left Guan Ailian at a loss for what to do.

He only opened his mouth to curse: "You, you and your son, are truly shameless!"

Her goal was to get money. Saying she would report it to the police was just to scare people. She knew in her heart that her eldest grandson was fine and the police couldn't do anything to Jiang Qiubai.

Ren Wenhua's face was so gloomy it could drip water.

He gave Zheng Haiyang a long look.

"Haiyang, you are still young and have a long future ahead of you. You need to think things through carefully. Don't make the wrong choice because of a moment of anger."

Zheng Haiyang pretended not to hear.

Without Jiang Qiubai holding him back, his path will only be easier!

Seeing Zheng Haiyang's indifference, Ren Wenhua leaned closer with a forced smile and whispered, "Don't think I don't know how you got transferred back to the security department. I can't afford to offend that person. Do you think I'm afraid of someone as lowly as you from the security department?"

Zheng Haiyang's heart skipped a beat, shocked by the renowned Renwen Culture.

How could he know about this?

Zheng Haiyang comforted himself, "No, it can't be!"

As a lowly group leader in the logistics department of the Renwen Knowledge Factory, how could he possibly know? He must be lying to himself.

"Take good care of your PG." Ren Wenhua patted Zheng Haiyang on the shoulder and looked meaningfully down at Zheng Haiyang's lower body.

Zheng Haiyang panicked.

He... he actually knew!

A series of consequences ran through my mind.

Zheng Haiyang could only apologize in a humble voice, "Uncle Ren, it's all because of my ignorant son that Yongsheng's wife suffered so much. I'll give her two hundred yuan to buy her some things to help her recover. What do you think?"

Seeing him back down, Guan Ailian's eyes lit up, and she immediately raised the price, "400 yuan! My grandson almost lost his life, and his health is not as good as a full-term baby. He will need a lot of expensive tonics in the future. What can you do with 200 yuan!"

She didn't hear what the old man said to Zheng Haiyang, but he must have some leverage over him. Since that's the case, she would be doing herself a disservice if she didn't take the opportunity to get more!

Ren Wenhua clearly thought so too, and echoed, "My wife is right. The illness you have from birth is a lifelong problem, and you can't neglect it in the future. You definitely have to take good care of it, and it will cost a lot."

Chang Dafeng's eyes widened, wanting to spit on them and kill these two shameless bastards, but a hand tightly covered her mouth.

"Mmm..."

Shameless! This is utterly shameless!

According to this couple, does that mean they'll also be responsible for their baby's future marriage?!

Are they trying to extort them for the rest of their lives?!

Zheng Haiyang really wanted to curse, but he didn't dare.

He still covered his mother's mouth tightly with both hands to prevent her from angering Ren Wenhua.

After all, Ren Wenhua knows about his affairs, and if he really wants to do something, he will only be the one who suffers.

He dared not gamble.

Zheng Haiyang gritted his teeth and said with aggrieved expression, "Uncle Ren is right. Children are precious and should be raised with care. 400 yuan is justified."

He comforted himself, telling himself he shouldn't act impulsively; there would be plenty of opportunities later...

Ren Wenhua's expression softened a bit, and he patted him on the shoulder like an elder, "After all, I watched you grow up, and I know your family's situation. I'm not an unreasonable person. Just give me the money within a week, don't be too anxious."

Zheng Haiyang's fists clenched so tightly they made a cracking sound.

Oh shit!

That old geezer, he got the benefit and is still acting innocent!

And there's another problem.

He didn't have that much money on hand, so he had to go to the deputy director and get some money from him.

Thinking of this, Zheng Haiyang felt a sharp pain in his buttocks, and his face twisted slightly.

...

On the other side, in a large courtyard.

After everyone finished dinner, they washed up and prepared to go to bed, except for the door of the east wing of the second courtyard, which remained open.

Yu Junsheng knew that Cheng Jiajia was going to the hospital tonight to report Jiang Qiubai, so he asked her to take him along so she could keep watch and run away if anything seemed amiss.

Cheng Jiajia: "...So, are you the one leading me, or am I the one leading you?"

Yu Junsheng awkwardly touched his nose.

In terms of physical fitness, he really can't compare to his wife, so at night it's always the lower body... cough cough, I'm getting off topic.

"Then I'll feel at ease watching over you."

Cheng Jiajia disagreed, saying that the two of them would be too conspicuous and easily discovered.

Make Yu Junsheng believe in himself.

Yu Junsheng insisted, "Wife, I can be your driver and take you around. I'll wait for you at the hospital entrance. I definitely won't hold you back."

“Look how cold it is now. Are you really going to walk there alone at night? I don’t feel comfortable letting you ride a bicycle.”

Yu Junsheng, his face flushed, hugged Cheng Jiajia and said sweetly, "Wife, please take me with you!"

"Otherwise, I'd be incredibly anxious at home."

After saying that, he kissed her on the cheek.

Cheng Jiajia was startled.

She stared at Yu Junsheng with a strange look for a while, and inexplicably felt that his appearance was somewhat familiar.

Wait, when did this man learn this trick?

I have to say, it's actually quite useful, hehe~

Cheng Jiajia reluctantly said, "Then, okay, you can wait for me at the hospital entrance." In reality, she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.

Yu Junsheng noticed this and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

The two changed into the black clothes they had prepared for their previous mischief. Yu Junsheng rode his bicycle with Cheng Jiajia on the back, making up their battle plan as they traveled.

"Let's do this first... then this... and then..."

...

When they arrived at the hospital, Yu Junsheng did just as he had said, waiting for Cheng Jiajia at the hospital entrance without going upstairs.

He also carefully instructed, "Wife, you must be careful. If things get really bad, we'll go back home. She'll eventually be discharged and return to the compound." The implication was that it would be more convenient to report back from the compound.

But Cheng Jiajia couldn't wait that long. "No, I won't tolerate this overnight!"

She won't be able to sleep tonight if she doesn't do something.

Moreover, doing something in the courtyard would easily remind people of her past conflict with Jiang Qiubai.

Unlike hospitals, where people come and go, making it easier to perform procedures.

Cheng Jiajia waved her hand, and seeing that no one was at the entrance of the hospital's inpatient department, she quickly slipped inside with her cloth bag.

Cheng Jiajia didn't know which ward Jiang Qiubai was in, but she was certain that the hospital would arrange for the two of them to be in the same ward.

And she happened to vaguely remember Chang Dafeng's hospital room.

When we got to the second floor, we saw two nurses chatting as they made their rounds.

"I never would have guessed that the woman with the broken leg could be so heartless, actually targeting a pregnant woman and causing her to bleed profusely."

"That's right. I heard that the two of them were neighbors in the same courtyard. I don't know what grudge they had. Luckily, the pregnant woman was in good health, otherwise it would have been a double tragedy."

Unexpectedly, Cheng Jiajia clicked her tongue in shock after hearing this gossip.

For some reason, Cheng Jiajia felt that the woman who beat the pregnant woman until she bled profusely and broke her leg was Jiang Qiubai.

This woman has completely turned evil now. She'll attack anyone she doesn't like, making her extremely dangerous.

So for her own safety, she should keep her leg broken!

After waiting for a while, when the corridor was finally empty, Cheng Jiajia slipped into the ward.

Looking at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lying side by side, Cheng Jiajia smiled with satisfaction. She said, "These two must live together."

First, they each gave each other a hard whack on the back of the neck.

"Crunch"

"Crunch"

Once they were out of it, Cheng Jiajia grinned and took out the iron hammer she had prepared beforehand.

He slammed his fist down on Jiang Qiubai's broken right leg.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Jiang Qiubai was jolted awake by the pain, and she stared in shock at the man in black standing in front of her bed.

"You are... Ah!"

Before she could even utter the word "who," another blow landed on her leg. Jiang Qiubai rolled her eyes and fainted from the pain.
