Li Ying went to the army to see the division commander, wanting to apply to go to the front line, but the division commander refused.
"It's enough that you have this intention. You're pregnant now, so take good care of yourself. You're a doctor, and treating and saving lives is your job. Doing that well is more honorable than going to the front lines!"
"Commander, Ye Jingchi, he..."
The division commander smiled and said, "Ye Jingchi is a good comrade. Trust him, he'll be fine."
Li Ying hesitated for a long time before leaving the army and returning home without revealing that Ye Jingchi had injured his arm.
As soon as I got home, a disheveled woman rushed over, holding a sharp knife in her hand.
"Li Ying, go to hell!"
It's Rong Ning.
Li Ying dodged Rong Ning, pulled out a silver needle, and glared angrily at the woman's ferocious face.
"Li Ying, why didn't you save my son? My son is gone. Lu Xingzhou wants a divorce, and I have nothing left!" Rong Ning shouted, her eyes fixed on Li Ying's stomach with venom. "My son is gone, but I won't let you give birth to his child. I'll make you lose your son and everything, just like me!"
Rong Ning charged forward wielding a sharp knife, about to injure Li Ying, when a figure moved with lightning speed, kicking Rong Ning in the back. Rong Ning lost control and fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Li Ying looked up and saw Jing Yingyan standing straight and tall in front of her.
"You broke up someone else's marriage first, then harmed their interests, and now you're reaping the consequences but blaming others. A person like you doesn't deserve to live!"
Rong Ning spat out a mouthful of blood, glaring at Li Ying with hatred: "Why, why are they all protecting you? Why can't Lu Xingzhou forget you even now? Why?"
Li Ying calmly said, "You were wrong from the start. Lu Xingzhou is not the kind of man you can entrust your life to. It's not that he can't forget me; he just feels you're no longer of any use to him. Do you understand?"
Rong Ning laughed and cried at the same time: "Li Ying, we're from the same place, and I was better than you in everything when we were in school, but why are you always better than me? Your parents love you, your brothers dote on you, and even your senior classmates protect you. And what about me? I have nothing!"
“Everyone has their own destiny, and their destinies are different. But because of this, you hold a grudge against me, reported my parents, and caused them to suffer in the countryside. You stole Lu Xingzhou, making me a divorced person. You always thought that by taking all of this away, you could defeat me, but you forgot one thing: only when you are strong enough can you be defeated by anyone.” Li Ying said to Zhou Qi, who came out, “Call the police! Rong Ning attempted to injure someone with a weapon.”
After saying that, he stepped into the courtyard.
"Li Ying, don't be so smug! I've heard that Ye Jingchi isn't coming back! You're destined to be an unwanted woman for the rest of your life!" Rong Ning roared, uttering the most vicious words.
Zhou Qi stepped forward and pinned Rong Ning down: "Stop talking nonsense! Even if Commander Ye doesn't come back, our Miss Ying will still find a better man. You, just stay in jail and reflect on your actions!"
Zhou Qi took Rong Ning to the police station.
In the courtyard, Li Ying stood quietly, her feelings were complicated. Rong Ning's words had indeed touched a soft spot in her heart.
Lu Xingzhou deceived her for three years, and she considered herself to be clear-headed and no longer gave love to anyone. Even when faced with Ye Jingchi's ardent treatment, she only regarded it as the tenderness that should exist between husband and wife.
However, Ye Jingchi left, leaving with his injured arm.
He knew perfectly well that he would never return, but he still chose to leave in this way.
He didn't want her to feel guilty about knowing the cause of his death, so he used the fact that he died in battle to appease her guilt and the Ye family's blame.
"Don't worry, I will bring Ye Jingchi back, safe and sound!" Jing Yingyan suddenly said.
Li Ying turned around, a glint of light flashing in her eyes, and simply said, "Thank you."
"No need to thank me. I'm the one who should be thanking you; you healed my leg. But remember to take good care of yourself. Wait for Ye Jingchi's triumphant return!"
After speaking, Jing Yingyan strode out of the courtyard.
Li Ying looked up at the courtyard. The sky was gradually changing color; winter had arrived, and the first snow of winter had fallen.
I wonder if Ye Jingchi's arm still hurts?
With Father Li Dongguo returning to Shanghai and Mother Yang Mei staying behind to take care of him, the house suddenly felt much quieter after Jing Yingyan left.
Li Ying is not someone who gets stuck in grief.
The junior brother's wrist has healed, and the work in the research lab continues. The second senior brother, Shi Bai, has also come over.
He felt ashamed for hiding Ye Jingchi's illness from her; if he hadn't, his junior sister would definitely have had a way to cure Ye Jingchi.
Li Ying doesn't blame anyone; it's clearly because she didn't care enough about Ye Jingchi!
The end of the year is fast approaching.
Winters in the capital were getting colder and colder, and Li Ying's belly was getting bigger and bigger, so her clothes were getting more and more bulky.
However, the two competitions at the end of the year still had to be held. Lu Qingzhu was worried that Li Ying was working too hard, so she assigned her part of the work to Shi Bai.
Li Ying was only responsible for providing guidance, while Shi Bai performed the operations.
After returning from the research lab and having dinner, Shi Bai went out again.
Li Ying saw it by chance and found it strange.
"Yingying, the floor heating is on." Yang Mei entered the room and closed the door.
"Mom, have you noticed that my second brother has been going out after dinner lately?"
“That’s true, there might be something going on. He’s your second senior brother, not your biological brother. There are some things you should stay out of your business.” Yang Mei didn’t want her daughter to worry too much.
Li Ying couldn't ignore it; her second senior brother only had himself left, and these fellow disciples were his family.
On the way to the research lab together in the morning, Li Ying pressed Shi Bai for answers.
"Second Brother, what do you do every night when you go out?"
Shi Bai felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this. "Junior Sister, I shouldn't have kept it from you, but things are a bit strange."
"Strange? What's going on!"
After hesitating for a while, Shi Bai finally spoke: "I ran into Chuan Miao."
Transmission?
Wasn't he already dead?
Li Ying sensed something was amiss: "Second Senior Brother, since you've encountered Chuan Miao, you should bring him back. You shouldn't be doing this so secretly."
Shi Bai felt ashamed and blushed.
"I've got it. I'll take her home tonight."
In the afternoon, Tian Li went back to the courtyard house with Li Ying to eat dumplings.
"Where's your Zhou Qi? I haven't seen him." Tian Li has been asking about Zhou Qi every time he comes over lately.
Li Ying joked, "I thought you were concerned about me, but it turns out you're concerned about Zhou Qi?"
Tian Li's cheeks flushed slightly: "Sister Yingying, you're making fun of me."
Li Ying was also frustrated. Recently, not only was her second senior brother acting strangely, but Zhou Qi was also acting strangely, disappearing from sight all the time.
"I don't know what's wrong, these people have been acting strangely lately."
"I'm going to grab Zhou Qi by the ear and ask him that later!"
Mom and Aunt Yang are both experts at making dumplings, and Li Ying and Tian Li also joined in.
After a long while, Li Ying heard a knock at the door and came out of the kitchen. She saw Zhou Qi enter the house and close the door.
What's he doing acting so mysteriously?
