Chapter 137: How do you plan to resolve this matter?
Lu Jiaxiang's words were light and airy.
To Zhou Hairong, the woman who had been acting crazy just moments before had suddenly calmed down.
She leaned against the wall, feeling her whole body shivering with cold.
There was a buzzing sound in my ears, like an airplane was flying by, and I couldn't hear anything else.
"What did you say?" Zhou Hairong's voice trembled, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence.
"Your face is ruined? How could it be ruined? It was fine when I left this morning. Are you lying to me?"
"Lu Jiaxiang, tell me you're lying to me!"
Zhou Hairong rushed over and grabbed Lu Jiaxiang's arm, his sharp, long fingernails digging into his flesh.
Her once well-maintained face had lost all composure, and her eyes were filled with panic.
Lu Niannian was her lifeline. She had been in poor health since childhood, and Zhou Hairong cherished her dearly.
Being told that her face is disfigured is worse than death for her.
Lu Jiaxiang felt irritated and looked at the woman in front of him who was acting like a shrew. His tone was full of disdain: "You still have the nerve to ask me?"
“When Niannian was born, I knew she was not healthy and advised against spoiling her as she grew up, saying that it would cause trouble sooner or later.”
“Did you listen to me? You didn’t listen at all. Zhou Hairong, your daughter’s personality is what you raised her to be like this. Her disfigurement is all your fault.”
Lu Jiaxiang gets extremely annoyed whenever Lu Niannian's matter is mentioned.
He still doesn't know how to explain this to Zhang Yanfei. Ning Tang absolutely does not agree to use Commander Xu to help him get ahead.
Lu Jiaxiang has dedicated almost half his life to the military hospital, and he will absolutely not allow anyone to remove him from his position as head of surgery!
"Thanks to me?" Zhou Hairong bristled instantly, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
She grabbed Lu Jiaxiang's hand, pointed at his nose, and started yelling at him.
"Lu Jiaxiang, how dare you say such things now?"
"When Nian Nian was little, he had a fever of 40 degrees Celsius, where were you? You, as his father, didn't care at all, and now that something has happened, you blame me. If you had paid more attention to him, would he have turned out like this?"
Lu Jiaxiang's face turned ashen from Zhou Hairong's rebuke, and he was so angry that his whole body was heaving.
He also understood that what Zhou Hairong said was true.
But he just didn't like Lu Niannian back then.
In the words of the older generation, they were simply incompatible.
She shouldn't have been born into my family, much less become my daughter.
Lu Jiaxiang's biggest concern right now is keeping his job; he has no time to argue with Zhou Hairong about old grievances.
He waved his hand away in frustration.
"What's the point of saying all this now? Your daughter is still in the hospital. If you really care about her, come with me to the hospital right now. Stop making a scene here!"
"Go to the hospital?" Zhou Hairong immediately calmed down upon hearing this.
"Of course I'm going, but not to see Niannian with you. I'm going to find out who did this to my precious daughter!"
After saying that.
Zhou Hairong turned around and was about to rush out the door. In his haste, he didn't even take off his slippers.
Fearing she would cause trouble at the hospital, Lu Jiaxiang quickly chased after her and stopped her.
He frowned and said, "Don't be impulsive. If this matter gets blown up again, it won't do you, me, or Nian Nian any good."
"No benefit?" Zhou Hairong turned around abruptly, his eyes filled with bloodlust.
“My daughter’s face is ruined, what good can we expect? I’m going to make that woman pay! I’ll show them that Niannian isn’t someone to be trifled with, and that she has her mother backing her up!”
When Zhou Hairong saw that Lu Jiaxiang refused to reveal who the murderer who hurt his precious daughter was, he suddenly stopped, as if he had thought of something.
This man has been talking about Ning Tang ever since he came in.
She had always known that Ning Tang and Niannian were fighting over Xu Qiaofeng and had a lot of unpleasantness.
Could it be that this little slut is the one who ruined Niannian's face?
Thinking of this, Zhou Hairong became even angrier. She grabbed her clothes and tried to walk past Lu Jiaxiang, who was in her way, to leave.
Seeing her irrational state, Lu Jiaxiang began to panic.
Once Zhou Hairong has made up her mind, nothing can change it. We absolutely cannot let her go to the hospital and cause any more trouble.
If Ning Tang gets involved in this matter, then I won't have any room to maneuver and won't be able to say a word to my daughter who has been living away from home.
Thinking of this, Lu Jiaxiang quickly pulled the person back.
No matter how much Zhou Hairong struggled, he used all his strength to drag the person from the doorway into the bedroom, and locked the door from the inside.
Lu Jiaxiang took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from his brow.
He said, "Don't get excited, I'll tell you everything."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Hairong became obedient.
Half an hour later, Lu Jiaxiang finally recounted the whole story.
"As for Ning Tang, I'll think of a way. Right now, as long as she's willing to agree and help us resolve Zhang Yanfei's matter, the subsequent issues with Niannian and Ning Xin shouldn't be a problem."
Zhou Hairong was stunned for a long time, then let out a cold laugh.
If this person wasn't Ning Tang, she might have believed it.
"Lu Jiaxiang, I think you've been blinded by greed. You actually still expect that little bitch Ning Tang to have any hope?"
"If she really wanted to help us, she would have done it already. Why would we need you and me here?"
In Zhou Hairong's eyes.
Anyone who opposes his precious daughter should disappear from this world.
If Ning Tang hadn't interfered, how could Xu Qiaofeng have married her?
The person who should marry Xu Qiaofeng is clearly Nian Nian, his childhood sweetheart!
When Lu Jiaxiang saw Zhou Hairong's resentful eyes, he felt utterly powerless.
He's worried about his job now, but this woman doesn't care at all; she only cares about useless trivialities.
He really doesn't understand.
Why do women love to pull each other's hair? Is it just because they don't like each other?
Seeing that he looked unwell, Zhou Hairong was afraid that he wouldn't let her go to the hospital to see her daughter, so she could only grit her teeth.
"Alright, I'll go to the hospital with you to see you, but don't mention anyone else. Don't expect me to give you a friendly look!"
Lu Jiaxiang saw that she had finally relented.
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and didn't argue anymore.
He just wants to stabilize the situation first, and then figure out a solution later when he gets to the hospital.
The two walked out of the house one after the other.
We arrived at the military hospital in less than half an hour.
At this moment, in the hospital ward.
Lu Niannian was wheeled out after undergoing debridement surgery in the operating room.
She was lying in the hospital bed, her injured forehead wrapped in thick gauze. Because the wound was so large, it covered her left cheek as well, leaving only one eye exposed.
Lu Niannian heard footsteps coming from outside the corridor.
She thought it was a nurse coming to check on her, and her expression wasn't good.
The moment she saw Zhou Hairong and Lu Jiaxiang, tears of grievance welled up in her eyes.
"Mom and Dad, is my face completely ruined?"
Zhou Hairong had never believed that her daughter would be disfigured.
But the moment I entered the ward and saw my daughter like this, my heart almost broke!
She walked quickly to the bedside, took Lu Niannian's hand, and spoke in a very gentle voice.
"Don't be afraid, Niannian, Mom is here!"
"The doctor said it's just a minor injury and it will heal quickly. We can still be as beautiful as before, so don't worry."
Lu Niannian didn't believe it.
Just before the surgery, she glanced at the wound on her forehead in the mirror.
It's scary, it's terrifying.
The flesh was grotesque, turned outwards to reveal the yellow fat inside, and if you went any deeper you could see the bone!
Lu Niannian struggled to touch her face, but Zhou Hairong held her down.
The thought of having to live with scars forever caused her to break down and cry loudly.
She cried and said, "Mom, you're lying to me! I heard the nurse say that I'll have a scar on my face, and people will laugh at me from now on. No one will like me anymore!"
Lu Niannian has always loved beauty since she was a child.
The shock of suddenly being told that she is disfigured and has a scar on her face that is half the length of her palm is no less than the destruction of the world.
She completely broke down and didn't want to live anymore!
Lu Niannian was crying when she suddenly threw off the blanket, not caring that her wound had just been stitched up.
He struggled to lunge out the window.
"I don't want to live anymore. My face is ruined. What's the point of living?"
After saying that, Lu Niannian turned around and was about to open the window and jump out.
Zhou Hairong reacted quickly and grabbed her arm.
"Niannian, don't get agitated!"
Her voice was strained as she gripped her daughter's hand tightly, refusing to let go: "On the way here, Mom was already thinking about finding the best doctor. I'm sure they can remove your scars in the future. You have to trust Mom!"
"Scar removal? How can I remove a scar from such a large opening?"
Lu Niannian went completely mad, swinging her arms wildly as she tried to pull her hands away from Zhou Hairong's grasp.
At this moment, the wound on his head had reopened, and the gauze on his head instantly seeped red blood.
Lu Niannian continued, "When the nurse was stitching me up, she told me that this scar would stay with me for the rest of my life!"
"Don't even mention Xu Qiaofeng, any other man would dislike me even more if he saw me like this. It's all that bitch Ning Xin's fault!"
She shouted as she rushed to the window again, this time with half of her body visible outside.
Zhou Hairong was so frightened he almost lost his soul.
Instinctively, he lunged forward, grabbed Lu Niannian's waist, braced his legs against the wall, and almost forcefully pulled her back.
"If you jump, Mommy won't live either!"
Zhou Hairong cried, "Don't be afraid, let's go find Ning Xin and settle the score, and make her apologize to you?"
At this moment, she was unaware that Ning Xin was lying in a hospital room downstairs.
Zhang Yanfei stayed by her side.
If those two dare to go, they'll definitely be beaten back!
Lu Jiaxiang stood to the side, his brows furrowed so deeply that they could trap a fly in them, as he witnessed the chaotic scene before him.
What kind of time is this? All these two do is bicker and argue!
What sins did he commit in his past life to marry such a woman and have such a stupid daughter?
Lu Jiaxiang's already tense nerves were further agitated by Lu Niannian's wailing.
His mind was preoccupied with how to explain things to Zhang Yanfei and how to get them to give in; he had no interest in dealing with this farce between the mother and daughter.
"That's enough!" Lu Niannian suddenly shouted, forcefully pushing Zhou Hairong away.
Zhou Hairong lost his balance and stumbled into the wall.
Completely disregarding her sprained ankle, she looked at her daughter and said, "Niannian, I'm begging you, what will I do if something happens to you?"
In fact, Lu Niannian never really wanted to die.
She was just emotional and wanted to cause a scene.
Lu Niannian thought that if she committed suicide, she would see Lu Jiaxiang showing concern.
To everyone's surprise, from the very beginning until now, Lu Jiaxiang has been standing by, like an outsider, watching the two of them without moving.
My heart suddenly turned cold.
Lu Jiaxiang had seen enough, and his face showed impatience.
He stepped forward and finally spoke, his tone full of disdain: "Have you made enough of a scene?"
“If you really want to jump, stop dawdling here. If you don’t want to jump, then focus on recovering from your injury.”
“Your mother is old, and there are people all around the hospital. If you don’t want to embarrass yourself, you’d better get down here right now!”
As Lu Jiaxiang spoke, he glanced at the mother and daughter who were still struggling.
Zhou Hairong was always protective of his own, especially now that Lu Niannian was in a special situation and on the verge of collapse. Hearing Lu Jiaxiang say that, he immediately exploded.
"Lu Jiaxiang, are you even speaking human language? Niannian is also your daughter!"
"You've been injured every year, and such a serious one at that, yet you haven't reacted at all?"
While protecting Lu Niannian and helping her lie back on the hospital bed, Zhou Hairong glared at Lu Jiaxiang.
"You just stood by and watched her get into trouble. In all these years, besides your work, who among us have you cared about?"
Lu Jiaxiang snorted coldly upon hearing the accusation.
This woman makes it sound so easy. If he didn't support his family, the three of them would have been starving on the streets long ago!
Besides, as a man, isn't it normal for him to pay special attention to his career?
Lu Jiaxiang felt even more disgusted with the mother and daughter.
He suddenly regretted why he had married Zhou Hairong in the first place.
“What’s the use of my concern? You’ve spoiled her. She can’t handle the slightest setback. The most important thing now is to heal her injuries, not to act like she’s going to die here!” Lu Jiaxiang walked to the bedside and crossed his arms.
He paused for a moment.
His gaze swept over Lu Niannian's wounds, his tone still somewhat cold, but much gentler than before.
"If you keep causing trouble, I'll notify the hospital to transfer you to a special ward, where I'll watch you 24/7, so you won't cause me any more trouble!"
Lu Niannian shuddered at his gaze.
This was the first time in her life that she had seen her father look at her with the eyes of an enemy.
Feeling both scared and wronged, tears immediately streamed down my face.
Normally, even if Lu Jiaxiang didn't particularly like his daughter Lu Niannian, he would still go up to comfort her if he saw her crying.
Now things are completely different; Lu Jiaxiang remains unresponsive and indifferent.
He even compared Lu Niannian and Ning Tang in his mind.
They are both his daughters, so why is Ning Tang so well-behaved and obedient? More importantly, this child inherited his medical talent!
Thinking of Ning Tang, Lu Jiaxiang's expression improved considerably, even revealing a sense of pride.
As if remembering something, he suddenly straightened his expression.
Lu Jiaxiang asked, "Zhang Yanfei found out that you attacked Ning Xin, and he used this to threaten me."
"Lu Niannian, you're not a child anymore. How do you plan to resolve this matter?"
