Chapter 30 Shen Changnan jumps off the building
Wednesday.
Li Jingshen came to pick up Shen Zhichu to go to the trial.
After recuperating in the hospital for a week, Chen Zhichu was able to sit up and his stomach didn't hurt as much as before, but he still felt weak.
Knowing that Shen Zhichu was going to court, the nurse prepared a wheelchair and put medicine on the shelf. When Shen Zhichu saw the two full bags of medicine, his hands hurt.
"Can I skip the IV drip today? It's not convenient for me to go to court..."
"No," the nurse interrupted her righteously, "Doctor Qin himself said the medication can't be stopped. You have to come back and continue to be hospitalized after the hearing."
Shen Zhichu glanced towards the corridor and asked, "Where's Qin Mo?"
The nurse replied, "I'm making rounds right now. By the way, Doctor Qin also told me to tell you that he won't let you go unless you receive the IV drip properly."
What else could he do? Qin Mo could never take back what he had said. Furthermore, with his mother-in-law's personality, if she dared to disobey him, she would probably be tied to the bed and have to listen to his nagging.
Shen Zhichu had no choice but to nod and watch the nurse put the medicine rack on the table and give her an IV.
The phone vibrated twice. Shen Zhichu picked it up with his left hand and took a look. It was a text message from Li Jingshen. He had already arrived at the hospital entrance.
"Go and complete the temporary discharge procedures." Shen Zhichu pointed to the drawer under the bedside table, "The forms are all in there."
The nurse took a bag and stuffed various forms into it, then pushed Shen Zhichu to the front desk to pay the bills.
There were many patients in the city hospital, and the nurse pushed her to a corner for fear that someone would bump into her.
"Miss Shen, please wait here for a moment. I will go and handle the formalities."
Shen Zhichu nodded: "Thank you for your help."
As soon as the nurse left, Shen Zhichu took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Li Jingshen, telling him his location. As soon as he sent the message, his phone rang.
She thought it was Li Jingshen calling her, but the caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.
Shen Zhichu hesitated for a moment and picked up the phone, "Hello?"
There were all kinds of chaotic sounds coming from the phone, and no one answered her. Shen Zhichu thought that someone had called the wrong number. She was about to hang up when Shen Changnan's voice suddenly came from the phone.
"Zhichu, I'm your father."
"Dad?" Shen Zhichu frowned and asked, "Aren't you on your way to court? And who gave you this phone? Where are you?"
Shen Zhichu had a bad feeling in her heart, and all kinds of doubts crowded into her mind. She couldn't help but hold her phone tightly, and her expression became serious.
"Zhi Chu, Dad has let you down over the years. I'm not a qualified father. When I'm gone, I'll leave your brother to you." Shen Changnan said tremblingly.
"I've always owed you something... You're excellent, so outstanding that I'm proud of you... I'm sorry, Zhichu, you have to be careful of Li Jingshen..."
"Where are you going? Dad! Shen Changnan, answer me!" Shen Zhichu called his name anxiously. If it were usual, Shen Changnan would have started scolding her, but this time he didn't...
Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound from the phone, like the sound of wind, or some kind of vibration.
Suddenly, a sharp and frightened voice came from inside, "Someone is going to jump off the building!"
Who wants to jump off the building?
"Dad, please don't be silent. Tell me where you are and I'll come find you. I'll agree to anything you ask. I'll give Shen's to you and your brother. I don't want anything else. Speak..."
There were all kinds of sounds in the phone except Shen Changnan's voice. Shen Zhichu's breathing began to quicken, and his voice trembled abnormally.
She was so anxious that she was covered in cold sweat, tears kept streaming down her red eyes and wet her entire face. She began to sob and choke, and begged him in a soft voice.
"If you come any closer, I'll jump down from here!" Shen Changnan's voice sounded like thunder.
Before Shen Zhichu could say anything, a terrified scream suddenly came from inside, which seemed to shatter his eardrums.
Then, Shen Zhichu heard a sound like a stone falling to the ground, like a muffled thunder, a loud noise that made people's heartbeat and breathing stop.
The surroundings suddenly became very quiet, and a sense of collapsing despair enveloped the surroundings.
Shen Zhichu's mind went blank. She moved her lips tremblingly and called out cautiously and tentatively, "Dad?"
No one replied to her.
Shen Zhichu's mind went blank. She tried calling a few more times, but when she put down her phone, the screen was black. She didn't know when the call was disconnected. She hurriedly called back, but no one showed up. Instead, she received a cold notification tone.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off..."
Chen Zhichu's tears fell one by one on the phone, blurring the screen. She reached out her trembling hand to wipe them away, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't wipe them away, just like the call that couldn't be connected no matter how hard she tried.
