Rong Yan had just taken a hot shower and her whole body finally warmed up.
She changed into a blue dress, preparing to have dinner with Fu Jingsheng at a nearby farmhouse restaurant. Before she could even finish packing her bag, she heard cries for help outside the door.
The woman frowned, and Fu Jingsheng sighed as well: "This is never going to end."
Rong Yan really didn't want to ask anymore. How could someone who spends money to have fun end up like this? She stood by the window and looked around. No one went out. The woman was afraid that if everyone was indifferent, what would happen if Wen Yuzhen got into trouble? So she gritted her teeth and opened the door.
When Zou Yuan heard his wife shout, he stood up and covered her mouth. To onlookers, it looked like the two of them were wrestling.
"Fu Jingsheng, something terrible has happened! A fight has broken out!" Rong Yan ran over in the rain.
The man's hands were bleeding.
Everyone took out iodine solution, and some tried to break up the fight.
Wen Yu trembled all over: "He kept punching the floor tiles, and there was a lot of blood on the tiles. I was scared."
"Either you two go back, or live separately. It's too dangerous to continue like this," someone said.
The others nodded in agreement.
"Make room for me, we're leaving this afternoon."
"I'm fine with that too. I'll pay the room fee until tomorrow. You two can stay separately and calm down."
Of the four couples living in the courtyard, only Rong Yan and her family hadn't explicitly said they wanted to move out. Rong Yan could tell that everyone else had made the decision at the last minute.
She was hesitating whether to follow the crowd when Fu Jingsheng said, "We can stay there too. We can stay until the day after tomorrow. Rong Yan and I will leave right away."
"That's right, look, there's room. Don't argue, getting angry is bad for your health. Since everyone's leaving, how about we have lunch together?"
"Okay, we haven't eaten yet, let's eat together."
Wen Yu lowered her head: "You guys go ahead, I have no appetite."
Rong Yan took Wen Yu's hand: "Don't neglect your stomach, eat a little bit."
"Zou Yuan, let's eat together. We can't skip a meal." Everyone tried to smooth things over, so they ordered a few dishes at the guesthouse restaurant. The meal was anything but relaxing for anyone.
In the afternoon, Rong Yan and Fu Jingsheng were the first to slip away.
We had no connection to begin with, so why feel guilty?
After leaving the village, Rong Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "We can't live in a courtyard house anymore, it's better to have a detached house."
Fu Jingsheng agreed with his wife and booked a detached villa near the next stop.
——
Tiancheng Municipal Hospital.
Liang Jia was in a daze all day long. Tang Wan fed her friend. She couldn't remember how many times she had been to the hospital.
Liang Jia had two pinch marks on her neck, and her exposed arms were covered in bruises and scratches.
"Liang Jia, I really don't want to care about you anymore." Tang Wan said this many times, but each time she couldn't bear to actually ignore Liang Jia.
Hearing her friend's words, Liang Jia's eyes finally lit up: "Tang Wan, do I deserve this?"
“He’s a pervert, why don’t you leave him? Liang Jia, you can’t even guarantee your own safety, what are you talking about love?” Tang Wan sometimes really wanted to knock a stick into Liang Jia’s head to wake her up.
But Liang Jia seemed unable to listen to what others were saying.
"I don't know. I'm afraid to see a doctor. I'm afraid I'm a psychopath. As long as he doesn't kill me, I can accept anything."
Tang Wan shook her head in disappointment: "I really won't come again if there's a next time. You can't reason with a damn devil."
"Tang Wan, Tang Wan." Liang Jia suddenly turned around and grabbed her friend's arm. "Please don't ignore me."
"Liang Jia, I've said everything I should and shouldn't have said. What can I do if you don't listen to me? Is it because you always think I'll take care of you after you got injured that you don't cherish yourself? If that's the case, I'll just leave you alone and you'll realize that you have to protect yourself."
Liang Jia lowered her head and stopped speaking.
Lu Kai arrived quietly at noon. He seemed like a different person. He brought Liang Jia some soup he had made. He first looked into the ward to make sure no one was there before going in.
He first cursed himself, then apologized, and finally coaxed Liang Jia to forgive him with soft words.
“Sir, didn’t you ask me what I did last night? Fu Jingsheng and the others went to Beicheng. I happen to know that place, so I thought I’d go there to help you get revenge. But before I even got there, you called and yelled at me. You even installed a location tracking device on my phone.” Liang Jia was already too exhausted to cry anymore.
Lu Kai's temper was unpredictable in his marital life; he liked BDSM, but he would never hit himself indiscriminately at other times.
Liang Jia knew that she would eventually forgive Lu Kai, but she would make a request when he lowered his head.
When Tang Wan returned with the water, she saw the man who was being overly attentive to her in the ward.
She was furious: "Lu Kai, you dare to come here again? Are you determined to kill Liang Jia before you're satisfied?"
Lu Kai had only heard Liang Jia mention a very good friend who would always help her whenever she encountered trouble, and that person had always worked at Songshan. He figured that must be the woman in front of him.
Lu Kai let her criticize him, after all, he would need to find out about the clinic from her later.
But Tang Wan's words became increasingly outrageous, until she finally directly asked him if he was even a man. She said, "If you're so capable, go fight on the battlefield! What kind of man bullies women? So what if you have a few stinking bucks? Dr. Song's husband is so rich, yet he treats his wife better than anyone else. Only incompetent people torment women..."
"Are you a pervert? Are you trying to fool Jiajia with this face now?"
Upon hearing "perverted," Lu Kai clenched his fist and slammed the lunchbox in his hand down: "What did you say?"
The man roared.
With needles in her hand, Liang Jia was afraid Lu Kai would harm her friend, so she got up to stop him. The man irrationally pushed her down, and the needles were pulled out. The woman cried out in pain.
Hearing the commotion, the medical staff outside rushed in and separated the two people.
Tang Wan was also injured. She tried to pull Liang Jia away, but the woman didn't move at all.
"Liang Jia, if I ever try to take care of you again, I'll be your grandson." She stormed out of the hospital and blocked all her friends' contact information.
Back at the hospital, an office colleague noticed the scratches on her arm and came over to ask what happened.
"Your friend's weird boyfriend?"
"I told you to leave it alone. If she wanted to change, she would have done so already."
"You're really stupid, why did you have to meddle in that other people's business?"
...
Shen Xingzhi came over to call for help. When she saw Tang Wan's wound, she called her to her office to find out what happened.
She was speechless and could only tell Tang Wan to stop having contact with that person.
In Beicheng, Rong Yan's mood instantly improved after changing hotels.
She stood on the second-floor balcony gazing out at the view, with Fu Jingsheng standing behind her, his arm around her: "No one will bother us anymore."
Rong Yan turned around and stood facing her husband. She tiptoed and kissed the man's chin: "Yes, Fu Jingsheng is not going anywhere today. He will rest here. The housekeeper will bring dinner over."
"How do you want to rest? Five minutes in the morning isn't enough, do you want to make up for it?" Fu Jingsheng asked, lifting Rong Yan by the waist.
"Fu Jingsheng, we're here on vacation. We can't sleep at Yushui Bay if we want to. We need to recharge so we can go out and have fun tomorrow."
The man shook his head: "That's different. I just want to make a big splash right now."
