“Wei Huafeng, the director of the capital city bureau,” Ah Feng said, “When he went to the slums to pick up women, he hit a little girl and drove off on the spot.”
Although the slums are poor, they are not lacking in beautiful and vibrant young girls.
Rich people sometimes go to the slums for fun.
In the slums, life is as cheap as a feather.
Even if a rich person hits a poor person and causes death, it's a minor matter.
That's why the director of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Justice dared to hit someone and drive away immediately.
Zhan Xiuchen's pupils suddenly contracted: "How old is the child?"
“Seven years old,” Ah Feng said. “I immediately sent someone to take him to the hospital without leaving a trace.”
Seven years old.
Zhan Xiuchen's knuckles suddenly turned bluish-white.
Ah Feng noticed it and was startled.
Your Excellency can order the immediate arrest of Wei Huafeng.
But this matter is not that simple!
In country A, things like Wei Huafeng's are generally considered insignificant.
If the President were to arrest Wei Huafeng for this reason, it would be tantamount to standing on the opposite side of the powerful figures in Country A.
This is definitely not good news for Zhan Xiuchen, who has just taken office as president.
“Mr. President, you have only been in office for a month,” Ah Feng said. “You must not act rashly, for even a small move could have far-reaching consequences.”
Zhan Xiuchen didn't speak, but his oppressive aura permeated the entire carriage.
After waiting for a long time, Zhan Xiuchen finally spoke.
He said in a low voice, "Ah Feng, children from both poor and rich neighborhoods are the hope and treasure of the nation."
Ah Feng was taken aback, and after a moment he said, "Mr. President, even if you want to take action, you should wait until your strength is stable before uprooting it completely."
"The itinerary remains unchanged today." Zhan Xiu's deep voice betrayed no emotion: "Furthermore, spare no effort to save that little girl's life."
"Send people to continue closely monitoring Wei Huafeng and find out more problems." As he spoke, a hint of malice flashed in Zhan Xiuchen's dark eyes.
........
They arrived the next day.
Grandma Shi is recovering very well after her surgery.
The doctor estimated that, based on this situation, Grandma Shi could be discharged from the hospital in half a month.
Just as Shi Nian felt relieved and a happy smile appeared on her face, she was struck by a bolt from the blue.
She received a phone call.
It's Xiaocao's sister-in-law calling: "Shi Nian, come to the First Hospital quickly. Xiaocao may not live much longer, and she wants to see you."
Shi Nian was startled.
Her voice was almost deafening: "What did you say?!"
........
A hemp rope always breaks at its thinnest point, and misfortune always finds those with a hard life.
When her grandmother was ill, Shi Nian finally understood the profound meaning behind those words.
Grandma is almost recovered now, and she has finally been able to breathe a sigh of relief from this sense of fate, only to be met with this terrible news.
Little grass!
Little grass!
What a tragic child he was.
She was only seven years old, but she had already lost both her parents.
Her family was poor, so her father went to work in a labor camp not long after she was born.
Bitter labor is one of the most arduous jobs in Country A.
Moreover, he can only go home once every two years.
During this time, Xiaocao's mother fell seriously ill.
The impoverished family situation drove Xiaocao's mother to despair, and she committed suicide by swallowing pesticide.
Xiaocao's father returned shortly afterward.
He broke his leg while working in a quarry, and he received a sum of compensation, which he considered the end of it.
Xiaocao's father was hoping that with this compensation money, his family could live a good life.
But upon his return, he was met with the news that his wife had attempted suicide by overdosing on pills.
Unable to bear the blow, Xiaocao's father committed suicide by jumping into a well in the early morning.
He used the compensation money to get married.
After that, Xiaocao lived with her older brother and sister-in-law.
But her brother and sister-in-law were not kind to her.
She was only seven years old, but she was already filled with suffering.
The accident was caused by a car crash.
Xiaocao took the passion fruit she grew herself to the market to buy, but on her way back, she was hit and killed by a car.
Even with her last breath, she clutched fifty yuan tightly in her hand.
She got the money from selling passion fruit; she wanted to take it back to her brother and sister-in-law.
........
When Nian saw Xiaocao again, Xiaocao was lying in a hospital bed.
A large patch of his hair had been shaved off, his forehead was wrapped in thick bandages, and his arms and ankles were completely covered. He was breathing heavily and with difficulty.
This isn't even the worst of it.
The doctor said the worst thing was that the grass had no will to live.
He has absolutely no will to live!
"Her condition should have been recoverable," the doctor said, "but the patient lacks the will to live, which makes things very difficult..."
Shi Nian's face turned pale instantly.
She gripped the little grass's hand tightly, stopping her tears from falling: "Little grass, listen to me! You have to live! Live on!"
Although Shi Nian and Xiao Cao are not related by blood.
But the two are as close as sisters.
She always treated Xiaocao like her own younger sister.
"Nian... Nian ni..." Little Grass couldn't catch her breath.
Then Sister-in-law Xiaocao seized the opportunity to peek over: "Xiaocao, let me ask you, when you were hit, did your blood splatter onto the other car? Think about it! Think carefully!"
Brother Little Grass's face darkened. He said, "Why are you still asking this at a time like this!"
Sister-in-law Xiaocao was angered by the tone of Xiaocao's brother's voice.
She suddenly raised her voice, her tone sharp: "Why am I even bringing this up! I'm not thinking about our family! The car that hit Xiaocao is from a wealthy neighborhood! What if Xiaocao's blood gets on their car? That would be so taboo! What if they come looking for trouble!"
