Chapter 6 Those Injuries
Waves of piercing pain spread from my shoulders throughout my body.
It was as if the nurse had forcibly removed her shoulders, pinched her neck and pushed her towards the electric shock platform...
Wen Ning lay on the ground, his hunched back shaking uncontrollably.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Qingyan recalled the unpleasant incident on the terrace and glared down at her, "Wen Ning, you're still addicted to pretending. I didn't use much force just now, so don't try to frame me again..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by an angry low voice, "Shut up and call a doctor!"
A pair of scarlet-black eyes stared at him intently, cold and cruel, and the hostility seemed to be condensed into substance.
Even the arrogant and domineering second son of the Zhou family was forced to shut up by this look and subconsciously took out his mobile phone to contact a doctor.
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Zhou Qinghe's crippled and skinny legs kneeling on the floor, and he held the girl in his arms tremblingly and cherishingly.
It seemed as if he was bullying the brother and sister. When the doctor comes, we’ll see how Wen Ning can keep pretending!
Zhou Qingyan was actually looking forward to it, but he didn't expect that other people from the Zhou family would come with Dr. Chen.
"Mom, big brother, Yaya Xufeng, why are you all here?"
"I heard from Doctor Chen that Ningning was injured. Second brother, are you bullying Ningning again?" Lin Wanyi said halfway and patted the little guy in her arms, "Hey, Nini, be good, don't move."
The little Pomeranian in Lin Wanyi's arms barked twice, its big, dark, pure eyes looking at the girl not far away with joy and longing.
Zhou Qingyan was already fuming, and hearing this made him even more upset. He said sarcastically, "With the Third Brother protecting her, how could I dare to do that?"
Zhou Qinghe ignored him. His gentle and clear voice was a little anxious. "Doctor Chen, Ningning's whole arm is swollen."
Doctor Chen hurried over with his medicine box. When his fingers touched the swollen arm, he was stunned. This...
Zhou Qingyan raised his eyebrows, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he spoke with a chuckle.
"Wen Ning used to love to put on airs, making a big deal out of even the smallest things. Doctor Chen, just be honest. We all know who she is, so there's no need to cover up for her."
"It's not a small matter. Miss Ningning's arm is dislocated." Doctor Chen replied briefly.
Zhou Qingyan opened his mouth and said, "She just fell lightly, how could she be dislocated?"
Doctor Chen didn't answer, but whispered, "Ms. Ningning, please bear with it for now. It may be very painful."
Wen Ning forced a smile onto his pale face, "It's okay, I'm used to it."
Was it a habit of wrist dislocation, or was it a habit of the Zhou family's suspicion and targeting?
Doctor Chen sighed lightly and said nothing more as he adjusted Wen Ning's bones by pressing her wrist.
With a click, Wen Ning's face turned even paler, and Dr. Chen quickly used gauze to fix it.
It was only then that Dr. Chen had time to answer Zhou Qingyan's questions.
"For most people, a minor fall wouldn't dislocate an elbow, but Miss Ningning has suffered multiple elbow dislocations, which has damaged the joint capsule, ligaments, and other tissue structures, severely damaging their stability. Even the slightest touch could cause another dislocation."
Zhou Qingyan subconsciously hid his hand that was used to push the person, and a guilty look flashed across his eyes.
Lin Wanyi's eyes turned red with worry. "Oh my god, how could your arm be injured so badly?"
Lin Wanyi's first reaction was that she was a child bride in the mountains, or the beatings she received in the orphanage.
But then he thought again, it didn't make sense. During the year that Wen Ning returned to the Zhou family, his arm had never been dislocated.
A terrifying thought suddenly emerged in Lin Wanyi's mind. Could it be...
"Was it someone from the sanatorium who beat him?" Zhou Qinghe asked in a hoarse voice.
Removing the shoulder, inserting needles into the base of her thumb, and electroshocking the solar plexus... Scenes of painful memories instantly invaded her mind, and Wen Ning's body couldn't help but tremble.
Zhou Qinghe was extremely worried, "Ningning!"
The little Pomeranian in Lin Wanyi's arms also leaped and nimbly jumped to Wen Ning's side, rubbing its white and fluffy body around her.
The others also looked worried. Zhou Yaya murmured curiously, "That's the best nursing home in City A. My parents pay hundreds of thousands of yuan in nursing fees every month. How could they possibly hit someone?"
Zhou Qingyan calmed down instantly and snorted coldly, "So many children of the rich and powerful have been to sanatoriums for treatment. After being discharged, they were reborn and became motivated. Only Wen Ning has not changed his bad habits."
Zhou Qingyan was not done with his insults to Wen Ning; he also held a grudge against Zhou Qinghe for the look he gave him.
"Third Brother, I think not only are you lame in your legs, but your brain is lame too. Do you believe everything Wen Ning says?"
Wen Ning, who had originally lowered his eyes, suddenly raised his head.
No matter how much malice the Zhou family had towards her, she didn't care, because after three years of hellish torture, she had long lost any expectations and never expected them to feel sorry for her.
But why insult her brother by using his disabled legs?
Wen Ning raised his eyelids and looked at the Zhou family member in front of him before he finally spoke slowly.
"The dislocated elbow was broken by a nursing home worker."
"On my first day in the hospital, they forced me onto the electric shock platform. The current felt like a needle rubbing against my flesh. I couldn't stand it and started struggling. The nurse broke my arm because they were afraid I would escape from the platform."
"From then on, every time I went on the electric shock platform, they would first break my elbow to prevent me from struggling. In the past three years, my arm has been broken hundreds of times, and my elbow has become habitually dislocated."
When Wen Ning said this, his expression remained calm, as if he was talking about something as ordinary and numb as what he had eaten today.
But those who heard it felt like their hearts were being cut by a knife. Lin Wanyi wanted to hold Wen Ning's hand in her arms, but she was afraid of hurting her. "How could this happen? Why would they do this to you?"
The tears from the corners of Lin Wanyi's eyes slid down onto the back of her hand, stirring up a chill.
She lowered her eyes and watched the scene. She didn't feel any warmth in her heart, but just found it funny.
Aren’t those sufferings forced upon her by the Zhou family?
Zhou Qinghe was closest to Wen Ning and saw that the back of her hand was pale and bloodless, with only a faint bluish purple tint at the base of her hand. Faintly, one could seem to see the remaining needle holes.
The rage pent up in his heart burst out like a flood, and his gentle and elegant face was filled with frost and coldness.
He raised his eyes and stared at Zhou Yaya, "Are you satisfied now?"
Suddenly meeting the man's cold and scarlet eyes, Zhou Yaya took a step back guiltily.
She never expected that Zhou Qinghe, who had always been patient, would be so straightforward this time.
Not long after she entered the Zhou family, the Zhou family members who had lost their beloved daughter treated her like a little princess and wanted to give her their hearts. Only Zhou Qinghe ignored her.
At that time, she tried to please Zhou Qinghe for a while, but it was of no use. He kept muttering that she was not his sister and that he wanted his real sister to come back. It was so annoying.
Fortunately, she soon discovered that Zhou Qinghe was a sickly child who was neither good at literature nor martial arts, and was the most useless son.
She also suggested that the fresh air on the mountainside was good for recuperation, so she drove Zhou Qinghe from the main building to a small building on the edge.
She originally thought that Zhou Qinghe would behave himself and no longer bother her, but now it seems that he is still as annoying as ever!
Zhou Yaya narrowed her eyes and spoke pitifully, "Third brother, what are you talking about? Seeing my sister get hurt so badly, I feel so sorry for her."
Zhou Qingyan immediately stepped forward, "Third Brother, I know you feel bad for Wen Ning, but if she hadn't done something wrong and refused to repent, would you have sent her to a nursing home? She brought this upon herself!"
Lin Wanyi turned around and scolded, "Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhou Qingyan was like a knight protecting a princess. "Mom, you know Wen Ning has been a liar since she was a child. How could she just open her mouth and say that the nursing home abused her? I think we should have my eldest brother call the nursing home and ask!"
