Chapter 653: Trouble
Shen Qing said that she was not tired, but when Jiang Yiming held her in his warm arms, her eyelids suddenly felt heavy.
"I'm sorry." She said in a hoarse voice, "Jiang Yiming, I have a child in my belly. You said it was a little girl. Seeing such a young girl get into trouble in front of me, I can't just sit back and watch..."
Jiang Yiming took a look at the intensive care unit. The little girl still had her eyes closed, her blood pressure was very low, and she was sleeping there alone and hungry.
He remembered that the little girl's face was pale and she was covered in blood. She was obviously out of strength but she was still holding Shen Qing's fingers. She wanted to live.
Life is something that is so worthy of awe. Jiang Yiming completely understood why Shen Qing wanted to help.
"Why are you saying sorry to me? You did a good deed. I've heard that no good person has a peaceful life. When we do good things for others, we are accumulating virtue for our children."
The two of them kept guarding outside until dark, but the girl's family didn't show up. The police were responsible for contacting them. Jiang Yiming ordered two takeouts and only saw the girl's parents after he and Shen Qing finished eating.
"We can go now, right?"
Jiang Yiming nodded, walked forward and said something to the family. Suddenly, the little girl's parents grabbed Jiang Yiming's hand and refused to let him go. Their attitude was extremely bad.
Jiang Yiming frowned and tried to explain something, but the other party was obviously unreasonable.
Shen Qing translated the meaning of their words one by one.
Basically, the little girl's parents believe that Jiang Yiming is the driver who caused the accident, and now he is running away after hitting someone and does not intend to pay for the medical expenses.
Jiang Yiming explained that the situation was dangerous at the time and the child would be in danger if he had not sent him over. The driver fled and there was no surveillance camera on the roadside so no one knew who it was.
What's more, he paid a sum of medical expenses after sending the child to the hospital. Now he doesn't ask the other party to return the money to them. As long as he can take Shen Qing away, it will be fine.
The couple still refused to give in, thinking that they had to pay the medical bills only because they felt guilty. After all, who would be so kind-hearted?
Shen Qing's heart sank when she saw this scene. She had read a new article before about a man who helped an old lady. He was kind-hearted, but the old lady turned the tables on him and he had to pay a lot of money.
Shen Qing always thought that such things happening on the Internet would not happen to him, but he didn't expect that he would be slapped in the face so quickly.
Think about it, the little girl who was in the accident was still lying in there and she was still in critical condition. When her parents came, the first thing they did was not to look after the child but to frame someone here. Their ugly faces were revealed without any disguise.
Because of this incident, they couldn't leave. The little girl's parents insisted that they were the culprits and not only wanted them to pay the full medical expenses but also demand compensation.
Of course, we can't convict them based on just one statement. The police need to investigate the whole matter.
Jiang Yiming and Shen Qing couldn't leave for the time being and had to be detained at the police station for one night to record their statements.
Shen Qing's eyes turned red with anger. This was a case of good intentions leading to bad results. She kept apologizing to Jiang Yiming and admitting her mistake.
Jiang Yiming smiled and coaxed her, "You're not wrong. They're the ones who are wrong. This isn't that simple. Just think about it, how could that little girl be on the street? And it took so long for her parents to come, and they didn't even bother to see her. They left her alone in the intensive care unit. It seems like they're very skilled at extorting money. This isn't their first time."
Shen Qing's fingertips trembled when he heard this: "You mean... the child got into a car accident because of them?"
"It's not absolute, but it's probably true that they wanted to throw the child away."
Shen Qing's breathing became heavy. She found her own shadow in the little girl. If something happened to her, she thought her parents would be the same, selfishly leaving her alone in the hospital, not caring whether she lived or died.
The two of them spent the night in the police station. Shen Qing's pregnancy reaction was particularly severe that night. She vomited violently even though she didn't eat anything, and her face turned pale.
Jiang Yiming looked at the dried blood clots on Shen Qing's body and thought that morning sickness must be related to this. He took out money and asked the police officer to buy two sets of clean clothes.
Seeing that Shen Qing was a pregnant woman, the police officer took the money and bought it without saying a word.
Jiang Yiming's body was also covered in blood. It was cold at night and he would easily catch a cold if he took off his shirt directly. Fortunately, the police officer was quick to buy things and came with shopping bags in a short while.
"Aqing, come and change your clothes."
My body was covered in blood, and it was very uncomfortable to wear it like this. Before, I was so focused on the little girl in the accident that I didn't feel anything. Now, looking at the blood clots on my body, I feel a little uncomfortable.
Shen Qing obediently changed her clothes, and she felt much more comfortable after putting on clean clothes.
The two of them slept in the police station for one night. The police officers had a good attitude and gave them whatever they asked for. They also had toiletries and hot water, and the bed was sleepable.
Even in a strange place, Shen Qing couldn't help feeling uneasy, but fortunately Jiang Yiming was always with her.
The next morning, after the two of them finished the breakfast prepared by the police, they were taken away separately and questioned about some random things.
Shen Qing couldn't help but complain: "The efficiency is too poor. Can we go back today?"
Jiang Yiming didn't know whether they could go back. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the police officers here were delaying time. Thinking of this, he gradually became uneasy.
The police officer refused to let them go no matter what and said that they had to find out the whole story before letting them leave.
Jiang Yiming sneered after hearing this: "So what you mean is, you won't let us go until you find the truth, and you're going to lock us up here forever? Why should I and my wife bear the responsibility for your own shortcomings? In today's society, this is the treatment for bravely doing good deeds? Who will dare to do good deeds in the future?"
The police officer apologized: "Sorry, sir, this is all we can do, but don't worry, we will definitely find out the truth within a week."
"My wife is still pregnant. If something happens, can you be responsible?"
The police officer replied: "We can arrange new accommodation for you."
It seems that this is to monitor them. Jiang Yiming has no choice. He and Shen Qing are using fake identities and it is inconvenient for them to do anything. Moreover, they have no background and only know ordinary people. It seems that they are destined to be locked up for a few days.
Shen Qing felt uneasy. Even though Jiang Yiming was always with her and comforted her not to be afraid, she still had nightmares all night.
After being detained for three days, the only good news was that the little girl rescued that day was no longer in danger of death.
A simple matter not only involved the police but also the reporters. It was also because this place was too peaceful and the reporters had little work to do. It was not easy for them to encounter an act of "heroism", so they naturally had to seize it.
The little girl was a grateful person and told the truth into the microphone. She was hit by a car and the driver fled. She was saved by a beautiful sister and an older brother.
