"Honey, don't worry, it's hard to get a taxi in the middle of the night. If you really can't, come back when it's light!"
Shen Yanming said this to buy time, because he figured he'd be able to go home by dawn.
But Bi Qiaoan wasn't easily fooled. She snapped, "Shut up, and just you wait!"
Shen Yanming awkwardly rubbed his nose. "Honey, don't be angry. I'll wait! Don't worry, even if it's dawn, I'll be sitting in the hospital lobby waiting for you. Please don't rush, and be careful on the road!"
"Okay, I got it, I'm hanging up!" Bi Qiaoan didn't give Shen Yanming a chance to back out and hung up the phone.
Then he called Yu Shui, without mentioning that Shen Yanming was injured, but said that he had something to do at home and needed a car, and asked which of the others was driving.
Yu Shui, who was half asleep, was immediately startled awake by these words. He hurriedly put on his clothes and told Qiao An, "I've driven, the car is parked in the parking lot. Don't worry, I'll come pick you up right away!"
“No need for that, I can drive it myself,” Bi Qiaoan said.
Yu Shuiqi said impatiently, "Why are you talking nonsense now? When else would we use our friendship if not now? Don't worry, I won't blab. Pack your things and wait for me downstairs. I'll be there in about fifteen minutes."
Bi Qiaoan paused for a moment before saying, "Alright then, I'll wait for you downstairs."
She was already feeling bad about disturbing someone's sleep in the middle of the night, so how could she possibly ask them to accompany her to the hospital?
But Yu Shui clearly didn't think that way. When he heard Qiao An mention needing a car, he guessed that something had probably happened to Shen Yanming. But since Qiao An didn't say, he didn't ask directly.
Given their friendship over the years, lending each other his car was no problem. But he was worried about letting a pretty young woman go out alone late at night. Even if Shen Yanming found out, he figured he wouldn't let him off the hook.
Yu Shui was lost in thought and didn't notice the stool under her feet, accidentally kicking it.
It wasn't a big deal, but the stool bumped into the bed leg, making a sharp thud in the quiet dormitory, which woke Zhu Shiliang up.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Zhu Shiliang asked.
Yu Shui lowered her voice and said, "It's nothing, my family called and asked me to go back home."
Zhu Shiliang sat up. "Do you need any help?"
Yu Shui shook her head. "I'll go back and check first. I'll call you if I need anything."
Zhu Shiliang didn't force him. After he left, he locked the dormitory door before going back to his own bed to sleep.
After hanging up the phone, Bi Qiaoan also prepared a set of sun protection tools for Yu Shui. She couldn't have everything herself while letting him sunbathe.
As for Shen Yanming, we don't know how badly he's injured or whether he needs to be hospitalized. Let's wait until we meet him to find out.
Bi Qiaoan took out some snacks she had made during this time from the teleportation villa, put them in a bag, and prepared to share them with Yu Shui, Zhang Heping, and Ji Kangyong. After all, they had helped her husband Lao Shen with his affairs, and she should be grateful.
Then, glancing at the time, she paced back and forth in the living room. Although Shen Yanming said he was fine, she was still somewhat uneasy since she hadn't seen him.
Sigh, in this apocalypse, there are no superpowers, no zombies, no mutated plants or animals, no pollution of land or water... Even with continuous natural and man-made disasters, most people can still survive.
Exactly, her personal space can't be used openly!
For example, right now, there are about ten vehicles lying in the space, but she doesn't dare to take them out to use. Even the bicycle, she doesn't dare to take out rashly before crossing an open road.
If it weren't for her fear of the state apparatus, she wouldn't be wasting her time waiting here.
This kind of safe post-apocalyptic world is already quite friendly to someone like her who has little fighting ability and dislikes bloodshed. But the supplies she prepared in her space, apart from food, were almost entirely unused. It really was quite a waste.
Bi Qiaoan was lost in thought when her phone alarm went off. She picked up the change of clothes she had prepared for Shen Yanming and the snacks she had packed for the others, and headed out. Of course, she didn't forget to bring the small backpack she usually used as a disguise.
Less than two minutes after they got downstairs, a car pulled up. Bi Qiaoan opened the car door, got into the passenger seat without a word, and told Yu Shui to head straight for Haishi Hospital.
Yu Shui hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you alone? Where's the baby? Are you sure you don't want to leave them at home?"
“I’ve asked the neighbors in the building to help look after it, and I’ve made all the arrangements,” Bi Qiaoan said.
I thought to myself, "If you hadn't insisted on coming to the hospital with me, I could have just brought two safety baskets and gotten away with it. I wouldn't have had to go to such lengths to come up with an excuse like this!"
Seeing that she had everything arranged, Yu Shui didn't say anything more. After all, a mother like her would definitely put in more effort than she did.
So he started the car and sped towards Haishi Hospital as fast as he could.
Meanwhile, Shen Yanming, who had just arrived at the hospital, was also questioned by Zhang Heping.
"Oh my, what happened? How did you get hurt like this?" Zhang Heping didn't even need to cut open Shen Yanming's clothes. Just by looking at the tear and the bloodstains on his clothes, he could tell how serious his injury was.
He said irritably, "Is this all? You're still telling me you're fine? Don't you even look at how many cuts you have, or how much blood you've lost? What, do you only consider it serious when you've bled out, gotten infected, and are on the verge of death?"
Shen Yanming obediently lay on the hospital bed and endured the scolding, letting the doctors and nurses help him remove his clothes and pants, and then stitch up his wound.
Looking at the torn flesh, Ji Kangyong couldn't help but add fuel to the fire, saying, "That guy doesn't know how to take care of himself at all. He's so badly injured, but he's not even in a hurry to go to the hospital."
If I hadn't pulled him away, he probably would have stayed on Green Lime Mountain until the aftermath of the fight was dealt with before leaving.
Zhang Heping sensed there was more to the story, but he was still angry and didn't ask further.
He continued his attack on Shen Yanming in a fit of rage: "You reckless fool, do you know you almost got your carotid artery slashed? Aren't you afraid that Qiao An will become a widow one day if you're so reckless?"
Shen Yanming's face darkened when he heard a certain word. He looked at Zhang Heping and roared, "You shameless bastard, don't talk nonsense! My wife and I are doing great. We will definitely grow old together and live to be a hundred!"
Ji Kangyong scoffed and said, "You're almost a eunuch already, what's the use of growing old together? What, you want Qiao An to live a life of widowhood for you?"
"What? He's a eunuch?" Zhang Heping scratched his ear, trying to make sure he hadn't misheard.
Shen Yanming was both ashamed and embarrassed, and he yelled at the two troublemakers: "Get out of here! I'm perfectly fine! Lao Ji, don't try to confuse the issue and ruin my reputation here! That knife was blocked by the phone, and the evidence is still in the car."
"You two single dogs, are you jealous seeing me and my wife all lovey-dovey?"
