A series of sharp pains from the wound made Wenxi's face turn pale. She remembered what had happened to her; she had been stabbed on the mountain. It seemed that she had been rescued.
Sure enough, the evidence she left behind came in handy.
The doctor arrived quickly, examined Wenxi, and said that Wenxi was fine and could go home to recuperate after staying in the hospital for a few more days.
After the doctor left, Qin Mi said to his subordinates, "One of you go to the Fengshou Brigade and tell everyone that Wen Xi has woken up and that they don't need to worry anymore."
When Qin Mi returned, he found Wen Xi crying and asked with concern and heartache, "Xi, what's wrong?"
"Brother Qin, I'm in so much pain. Can the doctor give me some anesthesia?" Wen Xi asked, her voice trembling with tears.
Two incisions, how could it not hurt?
Unexpectedly, after she lost consciousness, that person stabbed her again. Why did that person do this to her?
Could that person be the mastermind behind Chang Hua's paintings?
Or is it that he, like Chang Hua, works for a master?
"Xi, you can't use anesthesia. It will affect the healing of the wound." Although it pained her, Qin Mi couldn't help her with this. It was better to end the pain now than to suffer for a long time, otherwise she would suffer more pain later.
Wen Xi was filled with mixed feelings and remained silent for a long time before asking, "Brother Qin, how many days have I been lying in the hospital?"
"Today is the seventh day since you were injured," Qin Mi said.
"Then..." Wen Xi asked hesitantly, "has the person who attacked me been caught?"
"We caught him. He's an old man who only moved into the cowshed after the New Year," Qin Mi said through gritted teeth.
Wen Xi was astonished. The old man living in the cowshed? She had no dealings with the people in the cowshed, and there shouldn't have been any conflicts between them. Why would he want to kill her?
"Why did he target me? Is it because of the treasure buried in my house? Does he want to kill all three of us? Will Jiaojiao and Xiaoyue be in danger?" Wenxi asked anxiously.
Qin Mi pressed down on her shoulder and pulled her back down. "Don't worry, there are two teams watching over them. Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue will be in no danger."
"Have you found out the old man's motive?" Wen Xi asked.
"I've been staying at the hospital these past few days, and Yan Zheng has been handling all of this. I don't know yet, but I'll let you know when I get there." Although both his work and she were important, in his eyes she was the most important. Even if the King of Heaven himself came, she would still be the most important.
Qin Mi's subordinates returned to the Fengshou Brigade and shared the good news with everyone. Everyone was very happy and excited; after being unconscious for so many days, they had finally woken up.
Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue immediately packed their things, intending to go to the county hospital with the car to visit Wen Xi. The subordinates thought that Qin Miyi had taken care of Wen Xi tirelessly for so many days and should also go back and tidy up their personal appearance, so they agreed to their suggestion.
Lin Yiwan was also there and immediately decided to go with them. She didn't need to go home to pack her things, since she had her own space. Besides, it wasn't particularly hot now, so it wouldn't matter if she didn't wash up for a day.
Between friends and personal hygiene, your friends are definitely the most important.
Qin Mi's subordinate returned and told everyone the good news. Afterwards, he took three female comrades back to the hospital. The three women went straight to Wen Xi's ward because the subordinate had already told them, so they didn't need to ask the medical staff anymore.
Upon arriving at the ward and seeing Wenxi, who had lost a lot of weight, the three women's eyes welled up with tears.
Lin Yiwan's throat was choked with pain. "Xiaoxi, you've suffered so much."
"Xiaoxi, how are you feeling now?" Shen Jiaojiao squatted down, leaned over the hospital bed, and held Wenxi's hand. "We've always wanted to come to the hospital to take care of you, but your condition is unstable, and we were afraid that too many people would affect you."
Seeing Wen Xi trying to get up, Shen Jiaojiao asked worriedly, "Xiao Xi, are you sure you can get up? Won't you hurt your wound?"
"Okay, everything's fine now," Wen Xi said.
Shen Jiaojiao quickly helped Wen Xi up.
Qin Mi said, "Since you're here, you can stay with her for now. I'll go home and pack up."
"Brother Qin, thank you for taking care of me these past few days. I can take care of myself now, so you should go do what you need to do and not waste any more time here," Wen Xi said gratefully.
Qin Mi nodded and left, leaving only the four girls in the ward.
"Xiaoxi, what exactly happened?" Jiang Yue asked worriedly.
They knew nothing and were completely confused. When they asked Yan Zheng, he couldn't tell them either, since Wen Xi, the person involved, hadn't woken up yet.
Wen Xi shook her head. "I don't know either. I only remember that I picked mushrooms and wild vegetables that morning and was about to go home to cook. When I got to the pigsty, an old man suddenly rushed over and stabbed me before I even noticed. After that, I don't know anything, and I only woke up today."
Shen Jiaojiao pulled the blanket up a little for Wen Xi. "Alright, Xiao Xi just woke up, so don't interrogate her like a criminal. Let Xiao Xi rest well!"
“Xiaoxi, if you need anything, just let me know. We’re family, so it’s only natural that we take care of each other. Besides, you’ve taken good care of us too,” Shen Jiaojiao said.
Wen Xi nodded. Of course, she wouldn't be polite to them, since they were all her own people, and she treated them like her own sisters. She shared all the good things with them.
"An army is raised for a thousand days, but only used for one." She has raised them for so long, so it's not unreasonable to take care of them when they need it, right? After all, she won't abandon them in the future.
Seeing that Wenxi was indeed in good condition, everyone relaxed. Thinking about how Qin Mi had been taking care of Wenxi closely in the ward these past few days, Lin Yiwan asked worriedly, "Xiaoxi, has Qin Mi been taking care of you these past few days? Has Qin Mi arranged for anyone else to take care of you?"
Wen Xi shook her head, "I just woke up today, and I haven't asked that many questions yet!"
In fact, Wen Xi understood what Lin Yiwan meant. In this era, reputation was important, and Qin Mi had taken care of her alone for so many days. If this got out, it wouldn't be good for their reputations.
She's a little better off because she lives in the countryside and doesn't have a job. As long as she keeps a positive attitude and doesn't dwell on it, it won't have much of an impact on her.
However, Qin Mi holds a high position of power, so probably not many people would dare to make a fuss about this.
When Qin Mi returned a few hours later, everyone saw a completely refreshed Qin Mi. He had shaved off the beard that had grown out from staying up all night, and his overall condition had recovered.
