Chapter 312 From Now On, We Are Strangers
Fang Hua waited at home for Jiang Zhizhi to return, but she couldn't. Seeing that it was already dark outside, he went to the Li family's house to pick up Jiang Zhizhi and take her home, just like taking a walk.
I only found out that Li Simin was injured and hospitalized.
While heating up the chicken soup, Shang Shiying complained to Fang Hua, "When I heard that Si Min was injured and covered in blood, my mind went blank. I was really scared to death. Although I have five sons, I spend the most time and energy on Si Min."
Fang Hua was also shocked: "How did you get injured? The thugs even came to the front gate, they're so bold!"
Li Chengzhang, who was helping Shang Shiying prepare her lunchbox, picked up on her topic and said, "I went to ask, and it turns out that the thug was after Song Man. Because a newspaper published an article criticizing her, she felt she was innocent but didn't know where to seek revenge."
"In the end, they went to the newspaper office to keep an eye on Song Man. They felt that Song Man was a woman, and very thin and weak, so she was easy to bully."
Fang Hua was furious: "Isn't this ridiculous? Is this person out of their mind?"
Shang Shiying sighed: "If someone can find a place at the gate of the compound to commit a crime, they must have something wrong with their head."
Fang Hua frowned: "Si Min too... but the kids from our compound still have that much manly spirit!"
These words made Shang Shiying and Li Chengzhang feel very comfortable.
Shang Shiying shook his head: "They were just overestimating themselves. Luckily, it was at the main gate. If it had been further away, they would have been dead."
Just thinking about it makes me shudder; I get sweaty just thinking about it.
Fang Hua accompanied Shang Shiying to the hospital to deliver chicken soup and also picked up Jiang Zhizhi to take her home.
On the way back, Fang Hua whispered to Jiang Zhizhi, "Now, not only does Chen Limin disagree with them being together, but Shang Shiying and Li Chengzhang also disagree with Li Simin and Song Man being together."
Jiang Zhizhi asked in surprise, "Mom, how did you know?"
Fang Hua was a little proud: "Everyone loves their son. He was injured while saving someone, but Shang Shiying and his wife are a little resentful towards Song Man. Of course, we can't blame Song Man for this."
"But as parents, they will definitely love their children unconditionally. If the two of them are dating, then they will be hurt. After pursuing each other for so long and still not agreeing, how could Shang Shiying not have any thoughts in his mind?"
"Moreover, Shang Shiying and his wife are extremely protective of their children, extremely protective of them."
Jiang Zhizhi thought for a moment and nodded: "That's true."
...
Song Man didn't sleep all night after returning home. The moment Li Simin stood in front of her touched her deeply.
She couldn't even tell if she was touched or liked him. She kept thinking that if something happened to Li Simin, she would be very sad.
The next day, as soon as it was light, Song Man went to the hospital to see Li Simin, and she also boiled a few eggs to take with her before leaving.
When she arrived at the ward, Li Simin's room was empty.
The bedding on the bed was neatly folded.
Song Man paused for a moment, then turned to ask a passing nurse, "Nurse, where's Li Simin?"
The nurse was somewhat surprised: "They were transferred to the main hospital in the middle of last night."
Song Man breathed a sigh of relief, checked the time. She had to go to work, and there wasn't enough time. She thought she would go to the main hospital to see Li Simin after get off work.
Then, in the afternoon, I was assigned another last-minute business trip to interview people in a neighboring city.
This delay lasted three or four days. By the time Song Man returned to Beijing, Li Simin had already left with his injuries.
Jiang Zhizhi knew about Li Simin's transfer to another hospital and would visit him every day at noon.
Unexpectedly, on the fourth day, before the stitches were even removed, Li Simin was about to set off for the Northwest with the research team.
Jiang Zhizhi found it unbelievable: "Your body isn't even fully healed yet, are you sure you can handle this?"
Li Simin smiled and said, "It's alright. The research team has the best doctor accompanying us, and there's also a nutritionist. The timeline for this research project is very tight, and I can't keep everyone waiting for me alone."
Jiang Zhizhi was still a little worried: "I'll prepare some Chinese medicine for you, take it with you. I'll give you the prescription later, and after you finish taking it, I'll have the doctor fill the prescription for you."
Li Simin nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, Dr. Jiang, I will definitely follow your doctor's orders and take my medicine on time."
Jiang Zhizhi chuckled: "Stop being silly, I'm telling the truth. Anyway, you need to take good care of your health."
Although Shang Shiying was reluctant to part with her son, she knew the bigger picture and tearfully helped him pack his things, afraid that he might have forgotten something.
Li Chengzhang kept comforting them, saying, "They're going to do scientific research, not to go to the battlefield. Look at the Korean War, I didn't see you worry then."
Shang Shiying glared: "How can they be the same? Si Min isn't in good health."
Li Chengzhang kept reassuring you: "Look at you, I'm not just trying to comfort you. Don't worry, this research project is very important. So not only are there experts, but also very good doctors. We need to ensure the health of all the researchers."
Even after Li Simin left with the research team, Shang Shiying still couldn't quite accept it.
Holding Jiang Zhizhi's hand, he stood at the door watching the car drive away: "You know... this is the first time this child has left home to go to such a far place. Do you think his body can adapt?"
Jiang Zhizhi smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, people are very resilient. Maybe a change of environment will even be good for Simin's health."
Shang Shiying was taken aback: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Zhizhi smiled and said, "Well, we might have to add a bit of metaphysics to that. Besides, the sunshine hours and ultraviolet radiation there are stronger than in Beijing. Maybe it'll be good for Simin's health."
Shang Shiying sighed: "Really? That's really... that's good too."
Jiang Zhizhi nodded: "Definitely, you just need to worry about the three at home now."
Speaking of her three sons, Shang Shiying's head started to ache again: "They're really half-grown boys, they eat their fathers out of house and home. They eat like little piglets, they're hungry before noon after breakfast, and hungry before evening after lunch. Even the nanny says that my three sons eat exceptionally well."
Jiang Zhizhi laughed: "It's good that you can eat. Let's go home first."
The two entered the compound and ran into Chen Limin again.
After Chen Limin learned that Li Simin had saved Song Man, she simply pretended not to know anything.
Not to mention visiting the Li family to buy some things to nourish Li Simin.
I was completely relieved to hear that Li Simin was going to the Northwest these past two days. I no longer have to worry about Song Man ending up with that guy.
When he ran into Shang Shiying, he felt a little guilty, but then he smiled and said, "Congratulations! Si Min has been able to join the research group of a key national project and is even the person in charge. He will be a scientist in the future, which is quite remarkable."
Shang Shiying looked at her expressionlessly: "It's alright. After all, God gave him a good brain so that he could serve the country. If there's nothing else, we'll head back now."
Chen Limin noticed that Shang Shiying's attitude towards her was particularly bad today. Looking at Shang Shiying's back, she snorted coldly, "What's so great about him?"
Isn't he just a sickly person?
