However, one auntie said sternly:
“I’ve seen this trick many times. People these days are utterly wicked. They openly snatch people on the street and then produce a bunch of so-called evidence to deceive innocent people like us. We can easily become accomplices to evil and make a big mistake.”
After saying that, she stopped the person who was about to make a phone call:
"We can't be the kind of people who push girls into a fire pit, otherwise we'll have no peace for the rest of our lives and it will be too late to regret it."
Because of his aunt's influence, Huo Chenyu once again became the target of public criticism.
"I'm not a liar, I'm really not a liar, I'm just a pitiful, wounded man."
well.
These days.
It's too hard to tell the truth.
Huo Chenyu's voice was quickly drowned out.
Fortunately, at that moment, a voice came from the doorway:
“I can testify for him that he did not lie.”
It was Lu Zhixing's voice.
The onlookers, eager to get more juicy gossip, readily made way for Lu Zhixing.
After Lu Zhixing came in, he went to Tang Li's side, put his arm around her waist, and asked softly, "Why are you here? Doesn't Dad live next door?"
Tang Li smiled knowingly:
"I went to the wrong ward, and as a result, things turned out this way."
Lu Zhixing nodded and said to everyone:
"I'm sorry, there was a misunderstanding. This patient and my Tangtang were indeed husband and wife before, but they are now divorced, so what he said is not entirely true."
The aunt immediately started promoting it:
"You're divorced now, so you can't call her 'wife' anymore. No wonder she won't admit she knows you. You must have done some heinous things in the past that completely broke her heart. Now she's coming back to beg for reconciliation, but she already has such a good partner by her side. Why would she still want you?"
"That's right, that's right."
Suddenly, public opinion took a completely different turn.
Lu Zhixing seized the opportunity to say:
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of her. You just focus on getting better. By the way, doctor, how is he? Is he alright? How long until he can be discharged?"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Ling learned that he was already divorced.
I felt a surge of joy in my heart.
"How could we let him be discharged so easily?" Dr. Ling said truthfully.
"The superficial injury is nothing to worry about. It looks serious, but it's just a matter of time before it heals. However, he's not in good health and needs a full check-up. I can't say for sure right now; we'll have to wait for the results."
What's going on?
Tang Li and Lu Zhixing looked at each other in bewilderment.
"What the doctor said is a bit scary. It sounds like he's terminally ill."
Tang Li was genuinely worried.
If a doctor says something like that, there will definitely be problems.
Lu Zhixing gently patted her waist:
"It's good to get a full check-up. Nowadays, young people have irregular schedules and diets. They should have a physical examination every year."
Hearing this, Tang Li felt a little more at ease.
Huo Chenyu was on the verge of tears. He had arrived perfectly fine, but now he couldn't go back, and he didn't know what kind of serious illness Dr. Ling would give him.
As Tang Li left the ward, she remained in a state of constant anxiety.
Meng Bei accompanied Grandpa Sheng, recounting the strange and interesting things that had just happened.
Halfway through the conversation, a nurse came to take Sheng Chaosheng for a checkup and casually asked:
Do you know your blood type?
Upon hearing this, Sheng Chaosheng immediately frowned:
"Young lady, what disease do I have? Do I need a blood transfusion? I'm already so old. If the King of Hell wants me to die at midnight, please don't let me live until dawn. After I finish my mission in the human world, I still have to rush back to the underworld to chase after my beloved girl."
The nurses all laughed:
"Don't worry, it's just a routine check-up. You're in great health. I'm afraid your beloved girl has already been reincarnated as a human while you're still alive and well."
The nurse meant well; she had seen many elderly people in the hospital who were afraid of dying.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Chaosheng became anxious upon hearing this:
"What's the point of an old man like me living so long? Not only do I pollute the Earth's environment and waste the country's food, but I also ruin my chances of finding a partner in my next life."
The nurses didn't know how to respond, but Lu Zhixing smiled and said:
"Dad, you just appeared too early in this life and didn't have the right timing. Don't worry, just live out your hundred years in the human world first. In the next life, let Uncle Tang appear first. When it comes to feelings, it's always better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early."
Now that you mention it, it seems to make a lot of sense.
Sheng Chaosheng was immediately satisfied:
"Alright then, I'll keep you company for another thirty-odd years of playing around in this world."
The nurse found the old man amusing and tried to help him into a wheelchair, but Sheng Chaosheng refused.
"With my build, I might not even be able to outrun these young people. Just leave this wheelchair here. Miss, you lead the way. Don't worry about me not being able to keep up."
The old man's defiant attitude about not being old made the young nurse laugh heartily.
After they left, Tang Li sat on the sofa and asked casually:
What is Uncle Sheng's blood type?
Lu Zhixing casually tidied the bed without a second thought and answered offhand:
My dad has type O blood.
Type O blood.
Tang Li became excited instantly, as Huo Chenyu also had type O blood.
Could it be...?
Could they really be father and son?
After Lu Zhixing finished answering, he looked up at Tang Li:
Why did you suddenly decide to ask that?
