When we arrived at the hospital, the young man was eating. He had no money for a caregiver, so he had to do everything himself. His wounds had just been bandaged, and moving was difficult.
He wanted to drink some water, and the cup was on the bedside table. But when he turned his body slightly, he felt a sharp pain in the wound on his abdomen. He couldn't help but groan, closing his eyes and trying to endure the pain.
Liu Ruonan had originally wanted to rush over to help, but it was the police who rushed over first. Because the confession at the time seemed to have many omissions, the police came this time to conduct a detailed investigation.
The police officer introduced the young man: "This is the comrade whose bag was robbed yesterday, and this is her husband."
The young man just glanced at Liu Ruonan, then lowered his head and said nothing more.
The police officer smiled helplessly and said to Liu Ruonan and Zhuang Sheng, "This is the brave comrade who bravely stood up for justice, Ning Haotian."
Liu Ruonan stepped forward and greeted with a smile: "Hello, thank you so much for what happened yesterday."
Ning Haotian still didn't speak, and this time he didn't even raise his head.
Today, Ning Haotian had changed out of his fashionable clothes and donned a hospital gown. Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, his face was pale and his hair was a bit messy, but he looked completely unconcerned, completely different from the man who looked shabby but respectable yesterday.
Ning Haotian wanted to get rid of the thing in front of him. The saying "a single move affects the entire body" might be true. As long as he exerted a little force and pulled the wound, he would feel so much pain that he almost suffocated.
Liu Ruonan hurried forward and put everything on the table in order.
After the police conducted a series of investigations on Ning Haotian, they left. Liu Ruonan and Zhuang Sheng stayed behind, firstly to visit him and secondly to take care of him.
"I'm sorry! I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts." Liu Ruonan said apologetically.
When she first heard these things from the police, she was shocked. At that time, she only wanted to follow the police to see this stranger who was injured because of her, and she didn't think about buying gifts.
Ning Haotian lay down and said coldly, "It doesn't matter. Just pay for the hospitalization."
Liu Ruonan was stunned at first; she hadn't expected that to be the first thing he said to her. But then she smiled. She figured it was only right to pay for the hospital bills; after all, the man had been injured for her sake.
Since he was wandering under the overpass at the time, he must have had no money.
This man seemed to be filled with mystery in every way. He was dressed so well, yet he was wandering around; he was so helpful, yet he was cold as ice.
Liu Ruonan turned to Zhuang Sheng and said, "Brother Zhuang Sheng, I'll go pay the hospital bill."
What it means is to let Zhuang Sheng come and keep me company.
Zhuang Sheng pulled Liu Ruonan back and said to her, "I'll go!"
Zhuang Sheng is a man of few words. If he were to be with such a man of few words, it would probably be very dull. That would not be good, and the atmosphere would be too awkward.
Liu Ruonan seemed to understand what Zhuang Sheng meant, so she nodded and turned back to the bedside.
There was a thermos beside the bed, and Liu Ruonan poured a cup of boiled water for Ning Haotian.
Ning Haotian lay on the hospital bed, closed his eyes and rested, completely ignoring Liu Ruonan's existence.
Not to mention Zhuang Sheng staying, even though she was quite talkative, she felt very embarrassed at this moment.
"I'm truly sorry that you've been hurt like this because of me." Liu Ruonan tried to find a topic to break the awkward atmosphere. But Ning Haotian didn't seem to want to chat with her. He just kept his eyes closed, lost in his own thoughts.
"How should I thank you?" Liu Ruonan continued to ask.
Still no response.
"After you are discharged from the hospital, if you need any help, you can tell me and I will do my best to help you."
Still no response.
It was really dull!
In this case, Liu Ruonan would not continue to speak without knowing the tact, and she was always a little angry in her heart. Although she was really grateful to him, it was really rude to ignore him like this!
After a while, Zhuang Sheng returned, having paid all the hospital bills. He winked at Liu Ruonan, asking her whether she wanted to stay or leave.
Liu Ruonan mouthed to Zhuang Sheng that they were leaving. Zhuang Sheng nodded in understanding, then said to Ning Haotian, "Comrade Ning, you should take good care of your injuries first. We'll go back first and come see you another day."
Liu Ruonan followed Zhuang Sheng and left, but when she reached the door of the ward, she felt so choked up that she almost couldn't breathe.
Yes, she was grateful to Ning Haotian for helping her get her wallet back. However, she hadn't asked him to, or demanded he do it! Furthermore, she hadn't asked him to fight for it. What was going on now? Was he putting all the blame on her? That was unfair, wasn't it?
Liu Ruonan suddenly turned around and walked back to the bedside. She looked at Ning Haotian seriously and said, "Comrade, I'm very grateful to you! But it's really rude of you to ignore me like this!"
After Liu Ruonan said this, she felt much better. However, she had an inexplicable feeling that he would definitely get angry at this cold man next. So, Liu Ruonan wisely chose to leave and not give him a chance to refute.
Ning Haotian was stunned on the spot. He had prepared a long speech in his mind to refute Liu Ruonan, but the next moment he saw Liu Ruonan running away. For a moment he felt helpless!
After leaving the hospital, Zhuang Sheng took Liu Ruonan into a taxi. Along the way, Zhuang Sheng didn't say a word.
Liu Ruonan turned her head and looked at Zhuang Sheng's somewhat heavy face. She knew that he must be sulking here because Liu Ruonan was robbed but she didn't tell him!
Liu Ruonan stepped forward and took Zhuang Sheng's arm, coquettishly nestling her little head on his shoulder, but Zhuang Sheng did not refuse and did not express anything.
He didn't say anything along the way.
When they got home, Zhuang Sheng took Liu Ruonan's hand, pressed her onto the sofa, and asked righteously, "Tell me, what happened?"
"Brother Zhuang Sheng, don't be nervous! My bag was snatched. You saw me standing here perfectly fine. I know my situation, so I didn't chase after them."
"I saw some medicine residue in the trash can," Zhuang Sheng asked.
"Oh! That's because I almost fell down when I was robbed. I was shaken and felt uncomfortable, so I made some medicine to preserve the pregnancy. There's really no big problem." Liu Ruonan explained quickly.
