Lin Xiaoxiao had just inquired with the nurses and doctors and learned that Li Qiutang was receiving treatment in the orthopedics department.
When the two arrived at that floor, they asked a nurse and learned that Li Qiutang was in the operating room.
Unexpectedly, Li Qiutang's injuries were more serious than she had imagined, and she needed to be rushed into the operating room for emergency treatment. When Lin Xiaoxiao heard this, she felt both guilty and grateful. Li Qiutang had suffered such serious injuries all to save her.
She made up her mind that from now on, as long as this girl didn't do anything that crossed the line, she would protect her to the end.
While the two were waiting, Han Qiulin and his father arrived together. Han Chengjun also came after hearing the news. When they arrived, both of them were full of worry. As soon as they saw Lin Xiaoxiao, they asked, "Xiaoxiao, are you alright? What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor examined me from head to toe, and I'm fine."
"However, the girl who just helped me was seriously injured and is currently undergoing surgery." Seeing their grim expressions, Lin Xiaoxiao quickly explained her situation.
Lin Xiaoxiao was quite calm, but the men of the Han family still had very sour expressions. Han's father said to Han Qiulin, "How is the progress of your investigation? How dare you touch my family? You really don't know what's good for you."
"There's no news yet; it's probably under investigation."
Mr. Han's face was stern, and his aura was intimidating: "It's been so long and there's still no progress. If you can't get anything out of them through normal means, why don't you try something else? If you keep dragging this out, by the time you find out who's behind this, they might have already run away."
Han Qiulin glanced at the operating room with a cold face. Seeing that his family members were still there and showed no sign of leaving, he finally spoke, "I understand. I'll go back and oversee things personally now." With that, he jogged out.
With Han's father's "hint," the identity of the person behind it was quickly discovered. This person surprised everyone; they assumed it would be the Han family's political enemies, or at the very least, the Wen and Wan families who had been suppressed recently. But no...
I never imagined it was Xia Ri's second brother who was behind this.
Upon hearing the truth, Han Chengjun's face turned ashen, and he felt like he was about to break apart. He thought of Xia Ri's second brother, Xia Zheng, who had no dealings with Lin Xiaoxiao. He couldn't be sure that Xia Zheng would not have attacked Lin Xiaoxiao without a reason. He must have been influenced by the two people in his family to make the arrangements.
Han Chengjun noticed the gazes of his family and said to them, "No matter who came up with the idea, I will find out the truth. If they dare to have such thoughts, you don't need to let them off the hook just because of me."
After saying that, Han Chengjun, with a gloomy face, prepared to go back. Who knew that he would run into Old Master Han on the way? As soon as the old man saw Han Chengjun, he gestured angrily with his hand and left with the words, "I'll deal with you later." Then he walked towards Lin Xiaoxiao.
Upon learning that Lin Xiaoxiao was alright, the old man's face relaxed a bit.
"You unfilial son, what are you standing here for? Bring those two beasts here right now!"
Grandpa Han was unaware of Lin Xiaoxiao's situation, but Han Qiulin was furious after learning the truth, so he called Grandpa Han and told him the whole story. This made Grandpa Han very angry.
After waiting for about half an hour, Lin Xiaoxiao and the others saw Li Qiutang being wheeled out of the operating room by the doctor. The doctor looked at the operating room again and again, wondering why Li Qiutang's family hadn't come.
Then I heard a group of very elegant people in front of me ask, "Thank you for your hard work, doctor. How is Li Qiutang's health?"
The doctor looked puzzled, and Lin Xiaoxiao, who was standing next to him, began to explain that she had brought the baby over with Li Qiutang.
Upon hearing this, the doctor understood and removed his mask to speak: "She injured her coccyx with a slight fracture. Fortunately, she is young, otherwise the situation would be very difficult to predict. She needs to rest in bed for a while. The rest is just skin tissue contusion caused by the fall, which can be treated with some ointment."
"Okay, okay, thank you, doctor."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Li Qiutang was not irreversibly harmed. This was a serious situation; it had ruined the girl's life.
After being assigned a hospital room, Li Qiutang woke up not long after the anesthesia wore off. The doctor gave her painkillers, so she wasn't in too much pain. When she opened her eyes, she was completely stunned to see so many unfamiliar people around her bed.
"What happened? I... I only suffered a minor injury, and I'm already going to die?"
Seeing Li Qiutang's bewildered expression, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh. "Qiutang, you're awake! This is Mom, Dad, and Grandpa. We were all very worried about you, so we're all here with you."
"Oh, oh, oh! It's like this, hello uncles and aunts, hello grandpa." Li Qiutang nodded awkwardly to them, then turned to Lin Xiaoxiao and asked, "How are you feeling?"
"Thanks to you, I'm just physically exhausted, but otherwise I'm perfectly healthy," Lin Xiaoxiao quickly replied.
"It's alright, it's alright. As long as you and the baby are healthy, that's all that matters. My injury will heal soon with proper care."
Li Qiutang was also very glad that she had acted quickly enough. Lin Xiaoxiao was carrying twins, and if she had fallen, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
After Lin Xiaoxiao's introduction, Bai Hehua, Han's father, and Grandpa Han also offered their condolences.
Through conversation, Bai Hehua learned that Li Qiutang was a nurse here and had taken care of Han Qiulin some time ago. Bai Hehua looked Li Qiutang up and down. The girl was pretty and had a straightforward and righteous personality. Would her son like her?
Bai Hehua wanted to secretly ask Lin Xiaoxiao a question with her eyes, but before Lin Xiaoxiao could even turn her head, she saw an anxious figure flash past the door of the ward, making Bai Hehua forget what she was going to do.
"Qiu Tang!"
This figure is Han Qiulin.
After Han Qiulin found out who was behind this, he was still worried about Li Qiutang. He skipped his next shift, handed it over to a colleague, and rushed over like the wind.
Li Qiutang turned her head and saw Han Qiulin's concerned and anxious eyes, and felt a little touched: "You're here too? Shouldn't you be at work at this time?"
"All the necessary tests have been done. How are you? Did the surgery hurt?"
When Han Qiulin entered the ward, Lin Xiaoxiao tactfully made way for him so that her brother-in-law could get closer to the girl.
"It's alright. I was given anesthesia during the surgery, and I took painkillers when I came out, so I don't feel any pain now," Li Qiutang answered truthfully.
"You've already had surgery, how could it not hurt? Honestly, why are you being so stubborn at a time like this?" Han Qiulin's mind was completely focused on Li Qiutang. He looked her up and down and even read the doctor's diagnosis. Seeing that Li Qiutang's complexion wasn't too bad, his expression improved slightly.
