Li Ying never dreamed that the one climbing over the wall would be Jing Chi.
"Help me up." Jing Chi reached out his hand, looking at Li Ying pitifully.
Sang Zhi stepped forward, but Jing Chi dodged her, pointing at Li Ying: "I'll have her help me up."
Sang Zhi rolled her eyes and stood aside.
Li Ying crossed her arms and stared at Jing Chi: "Young Master Jing, your Jing family is supposed to be a wealthy family, how can you raise someone to climb over someone else's wall in the middle of the night?"
Jing Chi was quite embarrassed, touching his nose and looking rather pitiful: "I heard that Leng Yan came to give you a lot of gifts during the day, and you accepted them?"
"Young Master Jing, this has nothing to do with you."
Jing Chi hurriedly got up, wincing in pain from his leg injury. He hopped a couple of times before finally reaching Li Ying.
"Do you know how cruel Leng Yan is? He's not a good person!"
Li Ying said calmly, "Young Master Jing, he is your mother's adopted son. Isn't it inappropriate for you to talk about him like that?"
"Of course I know it's bad, but I can't let you be deceived by him. This man is good at pretending! You absolutely can't let him get close! Really, trust me!" Jing Chi was extremely anxious.
"Young Master Jing, we've only met a few times. I don't think we're close enough for you to climb over my wall to tell me this. So, I'm sorry, I'm calling the police!"
Li Ying said to Sang Zhi, "Call the police!"
"Li Ying, I really didn't mean to!"
Jing Chi was filled with regret. He had only come up with this idea because he was worried that if he knocked on the door, he would be kicked out. Now, he had to explain to the police officer.
In the middle of the night, Jing Chi came out of the police station and saw Leng Yan standing by the car smoking, which made him furious.
"Why you?"
"In the middle of the night, you want your aunt, who's not feeling well, to pick you up?" Leng Yan exhaled a puff of smoke, his cold eyes fixed on Jing Chi.
If it were known that the young master of the prestigious Jing family had climbed over someone's wall and been sent to the police station, he would probably be the headline news in Shanghai tomorrow.
"Leng Yan, let me tell you, you'd better handle what happened tonight! If I'm in the newspapers tomorrow, I'll hold you accountable!"
After giving the order, Jing Chi opened the car door and got in.
Leng Yan threw away his cigarette, stubbed it out, and got into the car.
"I know you have to listen to my mother, but Leng Yan, you are a human being, not an animal. You can tell what you can and cannot do!" Jing Chi lectured coldly.
Leng Yan chuckled: "Young Master Jing, do you mean you don't want a marriage alliance with the Chu family?"
"In no mood."
"Then I'll tell you too, stay away from Li Ying!" Leng Yan warned.
Jing Chi crossed his arms: "No one dares to teach me how to do things, not even you!"
The Jing family.
Jing Chi walked into the living room and saw his mother sitting on the sofa with a coat draped over her shoulders. He felt very ashamed.
"mom."
Aunt Jing looked up and glanced at her son, suppressing her anger, and said, "Let Xiao Hui treat your wounds. Tomorrow, we'll go to Old Master Chu's birthday banquet."
Jing Chi didn't say anything and went upstairs.
"Chi'er, there are plenty of girls in Shanghai, why do you want to mess with a woman who has given birth?" Aunt Jing said, exasperated.
Jing Chi was silent for a moment, then said, "I've seen her in my dreams."
Aunt Jing turned pale upon hearing this and pointed at Jing Chi, exclaiming, "Absurd!"
Jing Chi, too lazy to listen to his mother's nagging, strode upstairs.
The morning light shone on the plaque of the clinic, making it gleam brightly.
Li Ying went out early in the morning to visit her senior brother's home and check on his condition.
"Auntie, how is Senior Brother?"
Tang's mother was anxious, but when she saw Li Ying, she was overjoyed: "Go and see him quickly! Shi Mu still hasn't woken up. Did you prick him too hard yesterday?"
"Don't worry, it's okay."
Li Ying stepped into her senior brother's bedroom, sat down, and first took his pulse.
"How about it?"
"He's sleeping soundly. He must have been under a lot of pressure and feeling really down lately. Auntie, let him get some rest."
Li Ying stood up and came out with Tang's mother to talk in the living room.
Jing Yingyan arrived with police officers to reopen the case of Tang Shimu's wife and children's murder last year.
Upon hearing this, Tang's mother burst into tears, clutching Jing Yingyan's hand: "Sir, you must avenge my daughter-in-law and my grandson!"
"Don't worry, we won't miss a bad person, nor will we wrong an innocent person."
Jing Yingyan comforted him.
When Jing Yingyan left, Li Ying saw him off at the front gate.
"Restarting this must be a difficult task, right?"
Jing Yingyan smiled and said, "After this matter is resolved, I may have to return to the capital."
He got the police department to reopen the case by transferring him to another job.
Jing Yingyan knew that in Li Ying's heart, besides her family, there were only these senior brothers, so this was all he could do.
Li Ying sensed something: "Is it because of this?"
"The investigation is focused on the Chu family. The Chu family has a high reputation in Shanghai, so this is the only way. It's alright, I can still take care of the factory when I go back to the capital. I originally came to Shanghai to take care of you and Chenchen, but since you've made up your mind, there's no point in me staying here."
Jing Yingyan made it sound so easy.
Li Ying was very grateful and could only say thank you.
She couldn't agree to Jing Yingyan's request just because he wanted to help her. Some things are simply not suitable, and she couldn't compromise on them.
"Jing Yingyan, you are a good person, and you will definitely find someone worth protecting."
Jing Yingyan smiled and said, "I will."
The banquet hosted by the Chu family patriarch was ruined by the arrival of the police, and Chu Yiyi's father was taken away. The news spread quickly.
Tang Shimu woke up when Li Ying heard the message.
"Senior Brother."
Tang Shimu glanced at Li Ying, then turned his head blankly to stare at his own hands.
"Senior Brother, are you hungry? Have some food."
“Yingying, Master said that doctors should have the heart of parents, and that the purpose of learning medicine is to save people and cure diseases. But I have found that the medical skills I have worked so hard to learn are still used to serve those rich people!” Tang Shimu said with grief and sorrow.
"Senior Brother, I know that the passing of your sister-in-law and nephew has been a great blow to you. The dead are gone, but the living must be strong. You must pull yourself together, catch the real culprit, and bring comfort to your sister-in-law and nephew's souls in heaven."
Tang Shimu covered her face and began to sob.
"Why? I was clearly trying to save her, but she was bleeding heavily. I told them that I couldn't stop the bleeding and that she had to go to the hospital. They wouldn't listen, and when things went wrong, they put all the blame on me."
"Why did I become this damn doctor? If I hadn't studied medicine, Qing'er wouldn't have died, and Wenwen wouldn't be only four years old..."
Li Ying squatted down, reached out and hugged Tang Shimu, comforting him: "Senior Brother, this is not your fault."
Tang's mother walked into the courtyard and said to Tang Shimu, "Son, the Chu family has been taken away. This time we will definitely catch the real culprit!"
Tang Shimu turned to look at Li Ying.
Li Ying nodded emphatically, grasping Tang Shimu's hand: "Senior Brother, the net of Heaven is vast, and though its meshes are wide, nothing escapes it. We will definitely avenge my sister-in-law and nephew's grievances!"
