Chapter 134: Getting into Trouble
"Glass shards, infection?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Niannian's voice suddenly rose, and she struggled to get up from the treatment bed.
The wound on her forehead was repeatedly pulled, making it look even more grotesque, and she gasped in pain.
Lu Niannian gripped the nurse's hand tightly, completely unconcerned that her nails were digging into the nurse's flesh.
Her eyes were filled with fear of being disfigured: "You're talking nonsense! My wound was just hit by a cup, how could there be glass shards? And an infection? Are you just jealous that I'm prettier than you and want to deliberately leave me with scars?"
The nurse's wrist ached from being gripped so tightly that she dared not break free and could only patiently explain.
"Dr. Lu, we really didn't lie to you. There are indeed tiny shards of glass in your wound. The surrounding skin is now red, swollen, and festering. If it's not cleaned soon, the infection could spread to your brain and become dangerous!"
"Nothing is allowed, even if it's dangerous!"
Lu Niannian's voice was sharp and piercing, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"What if I get scars? If I'm disfigured, will any man ever want me again? Can you afford to compensate me?"
She shouted and shoved the nurse next to her.
The disinfectant bottles on the treatment table were swept to the ground.
Lu Niannian screamed and struggled desperately whenever anyone tried to get close to her.
The head nurse frowned and stepped forward, trying to calm her down.
"Dr. Lu, it's better to have a scar than to lose your life! We'll be as careful as possible, and we'll also use scar-reducing cream for you afterwards, so it won't be too noticeable."
"Shut up!"
Lu Niannian interrupted her sharply.
Blood streamed down her face from her forehead, blurring her vision.
He looked both disheveled and crazy.
Lu Niannian shouted, "I don't care! I won't clean it! I'm waiting for my dad! None of you are allowed to touch my face!"
As she spoke, she rushed out of the treatment room.
After taking only two steps, everything went black and my legs went weak.
If the head nurse hadn't caught her in time, she would have almost fallen to the ground.
That would only make things worse.
That face is completely ruined.
Lu Niannian leaned against the wall, trembling all over.
The pain in my forehead intensified, and my vision began to blur.
She was in so much pain that she hallucinated, thinking that there was no wound on her head at all, and that these people were just looking down on her and deliberately lying to her.
But the thought of disfigurement immediately brought her to her senses, and she absolutely refused to let the nurse touch her wound.
She didn't trust any of these people; she had to wait for her father to come back!
Just then, the door to the treatment room was pushed open.
Lu Jiaxiang walked in wearing a white coat.
He had just come out of the operating room and still smelled of disinfectant.
Seeing the mess inside the house and Lu Niannian's face covered in blood, his brows furrowed instantly.
"dad!"
When Lu Niannian saw him, it was as if she had seen a savior.
Tears welled up instantly, and she staggered forward, almost falling to the ground in her haste.
"They say there are shards of glass in my wound, and that it's infected. They want to pick them out so I'll have a scar! Please help me!"
Lu Jiaxiang helped her up, his eyes as cold as ice, showing none of his usual indulgence.
He raised his hand to push away Lu Niannian's hand that was covering her forehead, examined the wound carefully, and frowned even more.
The skin around the wound was swollen and shiny.
Dark red pus mixed with blood was seeping out, and tiny shards of glass could be vaguely seen embedded in it, indicating that the situation was more serious than the nurse had described.
"Dad, say something!" Lu Niannian panicked even more when he didn't respond. She grabbed his arm and shook it. "You have to treat it for me right now. There can't be any scars. There absolutely can't be any scars!"
Lu Jiaxiang abruptly shook off her hand, his tone eerily calm: "It can't be fixed, this face is already ruined."
"What did you say?"
Lu Niannian seemed not to have heard clearly, standing there stunned with her eyes wide open.
"Dad, say it again! What do you mean 'ruined'? Aren't you the head of surgery? You must have a solution, so please treat me!"
"I am the head of surgery, not a god."
Lu Jiaxiang's voice was completely flat, and his eyes even showed a hint of annoyance.
"The glass shards in the wound were embedded too deeply and had grown into the flesh."
"The infection is so severe now that even if all the debris is removed, it will leave a large scar and could very likely affect the nerves. It's hard to say whether this half of the face will be able to move in the future."
Lu Jiaxiang was very serious.
He quickly analyzed the situation based on his experience and then stated the facts.
No matter who is standing here today, even if the King of Heaven himself is old, Lu Niannian's forehead wound is too late to be healed.
"impossible!"
Lu Niannian screamed and frantically grabbed her hair.
"You're lying to me! You're definitely doing this on purpose! Is it because we argued before that you're now refusing to help me when I'm in trouble?!"
"I'm your daughter! How could you treat me like this!"
Seeing her hysterical state, Lu Jiaxiang lost all patience.
He had long been fed up with his spoiled, domineering daughter who only caused trouble.
This time, she ended up in this state, and almost caused trouble for the hospital as well.
Lu Jiaxiang turned around with a cold face and said to the head nurse, "Arrange a debridement surgery for her and notify the anesthesiology department as soon as possible."
"Dad! You can't do this!"
Lu Niannian rushed up and hugged his leg, refusing to let go.
Tears and blood mingled together, covering his face completely.
"I don't want surgery, I don't want scars, please think of something!"
"If my future husband sees me like this, he definitely won't marry me! What am I going to do?!"
Lu Jiaxiang wished he could kick her away right now.
Unfortunately, there are too many people around now. If he kicks it, there will definitely be a lot of nasty things said.
Lu Jiaxiang's tone was icy: "Now you're scared? Why didn't you think about the consequences when you smashed the cup?"
"Lu Niannian, you made this mess yourself, so take responsibility for it. From today onwards, don't expect me to clean up your mess."
He finished speaking and left without looking back.
Lu Niannian sat slumped on the ground, staring at his retreating figure, completely dumbfounded.
The nurses around didn't dare to step forward and could only silently clean up the mess on the ground.
The only sound in the air was Lu Niannian's resentful cries.
After a while, two nurses came over and carefully helped her up.
"Dr. Lu, let's go do the pre-operative examination first. If we delay any longer, the situation will get worse."
Lu Niannian was led around like a puppet on a string.
Her eyes were vacant, and she kept muttering, "I can't be disfigured... I can't be disfigured..."
This is a huge blow to a girl who loves beauty.
The hospital is only so big, and Lu Niannian has offended a lot of people recently, so now everyone knows about it.
Even Dean Gou heard about this while he was in a meeting.
The preoperative examination results showed that the wound infection had spread, and surgery was necessary immediately.
As the anesthetic needle was inserted into her body, Lu Niannian stared at the ceiling with a resentful look in her eyes.
She can't feel any pain anymore.
Lu Niannian looked at the doctor who was cutting and stitching her face, and she was so angry that she was trembling all over. She regretted sparing Ning Xin's life.
That little bitch should die along with the child in her belly!
Ning Xin, you just wait!
—
And inside and outside the emergency room.
Ning Xin was lying in the hospital bed, and the pain in her abdomen had eased a little.
The nurse came over and told her that the call had gone through.
Zhang Yanfei is rushing to the hospital.
Upon hearing this news, Ning Xin's previously racing heart immediately calmed down considerably. Thinking of how Lu Niannian had taken advantage of her pregnancy and acted so cruelly, a flash of hatred crossed her eyes.
He touched his belly and started to make plans in his mind.
Lu Niannian, I will make you pay back double for the grudge of ruining my face and the debt of almost losing my child!
And Zhang Yanfei, if he dares to cause trouble for her because of Lu Niannian, she will expose all his and Lu Niannian's dirty secrets and ruin their reputations!
Not long after, hurried footsteps echoed down the corridor, and Zhang Yanfei, dressed in military uniform, rushed in.
When he saw Ning Xin lying on the hospital bed, pale-faced, and the wound on her forehead, his expression instantly darkened.
"What happened? Who did this to you?"
"Where are my sons? How are they? What did the doctors say about them? Were they injured?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Ningxin immediately felt wronged.
"Brother Yanfei..."
Her voice choked with sobs, clearly trembling with tears streaming down her face like a broken string of pearls.
"You've finally arrived! I thought... I thought I'd never see you again."
Zhang Yanfei rushed to the bedside in a few steps, her tone urgent and heavy.
"What exactly happened? Who did this to you? How did you get the injury on your forehead? And what did the doctor say about our son?"
Zhang Yanfei's biggest concern has always been the children.
He had barely finished speaking when he leaned over to look at Ningxin's stomach, his eyes full of anxiety.
Zhang Yanfei didn't care about Ning Xin, that stupid woman, at all. He was only worried about whether his son had been hurt and whether there would be any long-term effects.
The man's face darkened at the thought, and he wished he could rush over and kill that crazy woman, Lu Niannian.
Ningxin cried even harder when he mentioned his son.
As if she had just thought of something, she suddenly pinched her inner thigh hard with her fingers, and tears instantly streamed down her face.
“It was Lu Niannian…she hit me.”
"I just wanted to have a good talk with her today and ask her to pay more attention to Ning Tang, but as soon as I opened my mouth, she pounced on me like a madwoman."
Ning Xin paused deliberately, coughed twice, as if she was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe.
Sure enough, I saw worry in Zhang Yanfei's eyes.
She curled her lips into a smile, a hint of secret delight in her expression.
Ning Xin paused for a while before continuing, "She was holding a cup and smashed it directly at my head. I couldn't dodge it."
“I told her I was pregnant and asked her to go easy on me, but she wouldn’t listen. She even said… she even said that the baby in my belly was a bastard and that I deserved to lose it.”
The moment those words were spoken, Zhang Yanfei's face turned as black as if it could drip water.
He was already a sexist, and treated this unborn child like a precious treasure. When he heard Lu Niannian say this, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
"She even kicked me in the stomach..."
Ning Xin shrank closer to him, her voice filled with fear.
"I felt a sharp pain in my stomach, and I started bleeding. I thought I was going to lose the baby, and I cried in fear."
"If the nurse hadn't arrived quickly, my child and I...we probably would have died in her hands."
Ning Xin deliberately concealed the fact that she had taken the initiative to provoke him.
After all, she's not stupid.
If he were to reveal that he had provoked Zhang Yanfei, Zhang Yanfei would definitely blame him instead.
If the child is born with any problems, she might not escape being beaten.
Ning Xin shuddered at the thought of it.
He immediately picked out the details that would most enrage Zhang Yanfei, even embellishing them to portray Lu Niannian as an unreasonable, violent, and crazy woman.
Zhang Yanfei was indeed thoroughly enraged.
His eyes were blazing with anger, and he suddenly stood up.
"That Lu Niannian is truly lawless! She dared to touch my people and even tried to harm my son. I will not let her get away with this!"
Ning Xin quickly grabbed his sleeve, her face full of worry: "Yan Fei, don't be impulsive. Her father is the head of surgery; we can't afford to offend him..."
The more she said that, the angrier Zhang Yanfei became.
This show of weakness only intensifies his protective instincts and desire to conquer.
"So what if he's the head of surgery? His daughter injured my wife and son. Even if he's the hospital director, I still have to get an explanation!"
Zhang Yanfei flung her hand away, his tone resolute.
"You stay here and lie down. I'm going to find Lu Jiaxiang right now and demand an explanation from him!"
After saying that, he turned and walked out the door very quickly.
In no time at all, they disappeared.
As he passed the nurses' station, several nurses were so frightened by his fierce appearance that they dared not speak and lowered their heads.
Seeing this, Ning Xin couldn't suppress the smug smile on her lips.
She lay back on the hospital bed and gently patted her belly: "You're such a good son, you've already helped me get revenge before you even came out. I love you both so much."
Zhang Yanfei rushed straight to the door of the surgical office.
They pushed the door open with a bang without knocking.
In the office.
Lu Jiaxiang had just taken off his white coat and was about to take a sip of water and catch his breath when he was suddenly startled by the noise.
Looking up, he saw Zhang Yanfei, who was furious, and frowned: "Comrade Zhang, what are you doing? Why didn't you knock before coming in?"
What are you doing?
Zhang Yanfei walked a few steps to his desk and placed her hands on it.
He glared down at him, his voice filled with anger.
"Lu Jiaxiang, what a fine daughter you've raised! Do you know how badly she beat my wife? My son almost died! You have to give me an explanation today!"
Lu Jiaxiang's face darkened.
He had just come out of the treatment room and hadn't even had a chance to catch his breath when he was questioned like this, which made him somewhat unhappy.
"Comrade Zhang, you need to provide evidence when you speak. Explain what exactly happened every year, and stop shouting here."
"Evidence? The scar on my wife's forehead is evidence, and the fact that she almost lost her baby is evidence!"
Zhang Yanfei pointed outside the door, her voice rising a few decibels.
"My wife is pregnant, and she kindly went to talk to your daughter, but your daughter did the opposite. She hit her on the head with a cup, kicked her in the stomach, and cursed at her, calling my son a bastard! Tell me, isn't this the kind of daughter you raised?"
When Lu Jiaxiang heard that the baby had almost died from being kicked in the stomach, his heart skipped a beat.
He knew that Lu Niannian had gotten into trouble by fighting with someone, but he had no idea that Ning Xin was already pregnant!
