"...You, stop scaring me!"
After Lin Guoan yelled this, his eyes were filled with fear. Before I could respond, he ran away!
"Okay, Lailai, I'm busy right now. I'll get back to you later."
I hung up the phone with Jiang Lai and looked at Lin Feng, who seemed invisible. "You just watched your dad beat your mom like this?"
Lin Feng shrugged, "I'm not as strong as him, and he doesn't listen to me."
“…”
I was furious and didn't know what to say.
But my aunt endured the pain and said, "Lin Feng, please go out for a while. I want to talk to your cousin."
"oh."
After Lin Feng left, I pulled a chair and sat next to the bed. "Have you treated all the wounds on your body? Are there any leftovers?"
"No. The injuries only look serious. The doctors and security guards intervened, so the beatings weren't too severe."
My aunt shook her head, looking much weaker than the last time I saw her. Tears flowed silently, "I want to divorce him, but he doesn't agree..."
I sighed, "Don't worry, I'll find a way."
Lin Guoan is not Fu Qichuan, so divorcing him is not that complicated.
But I have to find a way to ensure my aunt's personal safety first, at least she won't be beaten again.
There seemed to be some regret in my aunt's eyes. She held my hand and said, "Okay... Nanzhi, I'm sorry to bother you so much."
"We're a family, why are you saying this?"
I shook my head, peeled some fruit, and cared about my aunt's health. When I saw that she was a little sleepy, I stood up and prepared to leave.
When I reached the door of the ward, my aunt called me, "Nanzhi..."
I turned around and saw the struggle and hesitation on my aunt's face. Puzzled, I walked closer and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"you……"
My aunt hesitated to speak, her hands clenched into fists as she rested them on the quilt. Tears began to flow again. After an unknown amount of time, she spoke again, as if she had made a very difficult decision: "I... I have something to give you."
I wondered, "What?"
My aunt didn't respond immediately. She got out of bed and asked me to help lift the mattress, then she took out a small cloth bag from under the bed.
She carefully opened the cloth bag and took out a rabbit jade pendant. Although the red string on the jade pendant was a little white, it was obvious at a glance that the jade pendant was worth a fortune.
Even the color is not what is currently available on the market.
My aunt helped me put it on my neck, and said seriously, "Nanzhi, don't lose it..."
"This is too valuable. I can't accept it..."
"This is yours."
My aunt looked at me intently, her eyes filled with hesitation as she wanted to say something. In the end, she just said, "Just listen to me, you won't go wrong."
I hesitated and said, "Is this... my parents staying here?"
However, even though my father is rich, it should be difficult for him to buy this priceless gem.
"Um……"
My aunt struggled for a while, then helped me put it on. She put the jade pendant into my collar and avoided my sight. "Just take it as it is."
Just take it as it is, right?
This made me a little confused, but my aunt was obviously unwilling to say more. "Okay, I'm tired, you should go back."
I left the hospital full of doubts, and even while driving, I touched the jade pendant from time to time.
It's strange, but when I touched it, I didn't feel any strangeness.
It's like touching your own thing.
I even realized belatedly that my zodiac sign is the same as the little rabbit in the middle of the jade pendant.
But I have never seen this thing since I can remember...
At the same time, Fu Qichuan called.
Thinking about the things on my mind, I answered without hesitation, "Hello."
He said in a calm tone, "I heard something happened at the hospital?"
"Um."
I glanced at the traffic light and slowly stepped on the brakes. "Fu Qichuan, can you do me a favor?"
I wasn't sure whether he would agree or not.
We were arguing like that yesterday, and now the internet is still abuzz with it.
He may not be willing to help me.
But apart from him, I don’t know who to talk to.
He seemed to be signing something. There was the rustling sound of a pen on paper. His voice was low and deep. "What's the matter? Tell me."
"Here at the hospital, I want to borrow two bodyguards from you."
I can find a lawyer myself.
But I really don’t have a reliable bodyguard.
I have seen the skills of Fu Qichuan's men. It is not a problem for one of them to beat five Lin Guoans.
Unexpectedly, he was very easy to talk to. "Okay."
I breathed a silent sigh of relief, but still tried to explain, "That online thing... I really didn't do it."
"I already know, it's the Zhou family's work."
He spoke slowly and said for the first time: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
I curled my lips and said, "It's okay. This isn't the first time you've misunderstood me."
"Do you have time now?"
"What's wrong?"
"Could you please come to the company?"
Fu Qichuan's tone was a little cold. "I want to ask you in person...about Aunt Wen. I should have come to you, but you know the current situation, I really can't leave."
I think it was the video of Fu Jinan and Wen Fang that was taken by a passerby yesterday that played a role.
I pursed my lips and said, "Okay, I'll come over now."
