Chapter 116 Protecting My Wife
If it was Ruan Chuxia who was injured, he wouldn't even be able to help her relieve the pain.
Seeing Ruan Chuxia still silent, he gently pulled her fingers and said, "Don't worry. If Village Chief Yuan knew about this, he would probably come to me first, and then I would find a way to deal with it. Besides, the Xiao family is not really without descendants. Don't we still have Xiaojun? And how can you be sure that you are not someone who can easily get pregnant?"
She hid the emotion in her eyes, took out the acupuncture kit from her bag, and shook it at him. "I'm not worried about anything. You should think about how painful the needle will be."
…
Ruan Chuxia began to give Xiao Zhiyu acupuncture carefully, while Xiao Zhiyu kept groaning, frowning, and beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
It really hurts!
For some reason, today's treatment was more painful than yesterday's, especially when the last few needles were inserted. The intense pain almost made Xiao Zhiyu scream out.
Ruan Chuxia saw his pain, picked up the tissue beside her and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Pain is a normal reaction, and it will get worse later. This means your nerve reflexes are gradually recovering."
Hearing the good news that he was recovering, Xiao Zhiyu gritted his teeth and said firmly, "I can endure the pain no matter how hard it is."
Ruan Chuxia smiled slightly, and there was a special tenderness and charm in her smile, which even made Xiao Zhiyu stunned for a moment.
He was about to say something when there was a hurried knock on the door.
Because of some unpleasant things that happened before, Ruan Chuxia developed the habit of closing the door casually.
But this is no time to joke around. Who is knocking on the door?
"Who is it?"
She asked, her voice rising.
"It's me!"
Yuan Chenggang's familiar voice came from outside the door.
Ruan Chuxia and Xiao Zhiyu looked at each other quickly. They both knew that Yuan Chenggang would come to find them sooner or later, but they didn't expect him to show up so soon!
As soon as the door opened, Yuan Chenggang rushed in with a panicked look on his face.
"Zhiyu, Shuying told me that you won't be able to have children anymore. Is that true?"
Yuan Chenggang asked anxiously.
He knew in his heart that this was not credible. After all, Yuan Shuying had no reason to lie to him about such an important matter.
But this matter is of great importance, so we must get to the bottom of it!
Xiao Zhiyu was lying on the bed with a complicated look in his eyes, and his facial muscles were tense due to pain and mixed emotions.
Seeing Xiao Zhiyu's expression, Yuan Chenggang suddenly understood what was going on. His face turned pale, as if the sky was about to fall.
"Zhiyu, you're kidding, right? How could this happen?"
Xiao Zhiyu simply responded calmly, "Really, I won't have children in this lifetime. I've consulted the doctors, and they've confirmed this."
Yuan Chenggang opened his eyes wide, his lips trembling as he asked, "Is it...is it because of this injury? Is there no way to recover?"
Faced with his question, Xiao Zhiyu did not directly deny it.
Yuan Chenggang slumped in his chair. It was over!
How can I explain this to the Xiao family?
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao!"
His voice was choked with sobs as he spoke, "Zhiyu, have you told your family? This matter is too serious. We must inform them as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhiyu's expression suddenly became nervous, and he said in a heavy tone: "My father's health is not good to begin with, so it's better not to let him know. I'm worried that he won't be able to bear the blow after knowing it."
"That won't do!"
Yuan Chenggang firmly objected, his eyes flashing with anger. "How can such a big thing be concealed? I must tell him immediately! Otherwise, what if something goes wrong in the future?"
After saying this, he was about to stand up and make a phone call, as if he wanted to convey the news quickly.
Xiao Zhiyu was extremely anxious and he couldn't let Yuan Chenggang do this no matter what!
If my father knew, he would be even more sad.
He must find a way to stop Yuan Chenggang.
"Chief, don't leave so quickly. We haven't finished talking yet. Axia is such a skilled doctor. Since she was able to pull me back from the clutches of death, restoring my fertility won't be a problem. It just takes time. Now, all you need to do is be patient and don't let your family worry."
After hearing this, Yuan Chenggang paused, turned around, and asked with a hint of doubt in his eyes, "Is this true?"
Xiao Zhiyu remained calm, his tone confident, "Of course it's true."
However, Yuan Chenggang still had some doubts, so he looked at Ruan Chuxia beside him and asked, "Xiao Ruan, is he telling the truth?"
Being stared at like this, Ruan Chuxia felt very uncomfortable and her whole body was tense.
She answered stubbornly, "Of course it's true. Didn't you, Village Chief Yuan, also save your life thanks to my craftsmanship? Don't you still believe me?"
After hearing this, Yuan Chenggang finally revealed a satisfied smile, "Great! That's great! This is simply a great thing!"
Then he asked with concern: "How long will it take to fully recover?"
Ruan Chuxia had no choice but to continue lying, feeling uneasy in her heart, "It might take a month at the shortest, or maybe half a year at the longest."
Yuan Chenggang relaxed completely and breathed a sigh of relief. "As long as it can be cured, it doesn't matter if it takes a long time."
Seeing that Yuan Chenggang was temporarily calmed down, Xiao Zhiyu's expression instantly turned gloomy and his tone became cold.
"Village Chief Yuan, besides telling you, did Yuan Shuying tell anyone else about this?"
Yuan Chenggang was stunned for a moment, then said: "I told her not to tell anyone else..."
But when he thought of Yuan Shuying's increasingly unruly behavior recently, Yuan Chenggang's face turned a little ugly. "But that girl... humph! If she dares to ignore my words again this time, I will definitely not let her go easily!"
If it were in the past, he could guarantee that Yuan Shuying would listen to him, but now, he was not so sure.
Yuan Chenggang couldn't understand Yuan Shuying's thoughts, but Xiao Zhiyu saw it clearly.
"No matter how much she makes trouble in the team, I can pretend not to hear anything she says, but if she dares to throw dirty water on A-Xia, don't blame me for showing her no mercy!"
Last time, he had fully considered Yuan Chenggang's face and gave her a chance to correct her mistake, but face can only be given once, and there will definitely not be a second time.
If she dares to provoke Axia again this time, don't expect him to show mercy.
Although he and Axia have not been married for a long time, Xiao Zhiyu has already regarded Axia in his heart as his partner who will share his life's ups and downs together!
Being good to her is being good to himself. Similarly, offending Axia is like declaring war on himself!
After hearing Xiao Zhiyu's powerful words, Yuan Chenggang's face froze instantly.
Obviously, he understood that Xiao Zhiyu had completely seen through his niece's actions.
