Chapter 466 Dad is Back
"Comrade Jiang Meili, please leave your divorce application behind and take the child back first. We can discuss everything after Li Bing comes back."
"Is Li Bing coming back?"
Jiang Meili was surprised and happy to hear the news. There seemed to be a flash of light in her eyes, but it disappeared quickly. She hugged the sobbing Li Cheng and returned home.
Jiang Hua saw that Jiang Meili was distracted and knew what she was thinking about. Unfortunately, he was already exhausted and could only interrupt Meili's random thoughts:
"Meili, why don't you take a shower and go to bed first? My old bones are going to break if I stay up all day."
Jiang Meili nodded, went to the kitchen to boil some hot water, and first helped Li Cheng take a bath. The little guy was tired and scared today, and his whole body was sticky. He fell asleep after he was washed.
Jiang Meili helped Jiang Hua boil water for a bath. She waited until he finished and went to rest before she slowly boiled water for a bath and washed clothes. Her mind was in a mess. Even if she lay on the bed, she would still have random thoughts. It would be better for her to do housework.
For several hours in a row, not only did she wash the clothes that had accumulated for several days, but she also cleaned the house very well, which was completely different from when Yuan Qin was here.
The low, intermittent crying of a child came from the bedroom. Jiang Meili quickly wiped her hands and ran in. Seeing Li Cheng tossing and turning on the bed with a red face, she quickly picked him up.
"Oh my God, my son has a fever."
Jiang Meili put her son down, opened the drawer, and took Li Cheng's temperature first. When she looked at the thermometer, the temperature was as high as 39 degrees. She hurriedly went to the drawer to get some money and took Li Cheng to the hospital.
Jiang Hua couldn't sleep either. He came out when he heard the noise from his daughter and Li Cheng. When he learned that Li Cheng had a high fever, he pulled over a thin blanket, wrapped Li Cheng in it, and ran to the hospital.
After being admitted to the emergency department and receiving a fever-reducing injection, Li Cheng still did not wake up. He seemed to be trapped in his own dream and unable to get out. No matter how beauty called to him, he turned a deaf ear.
Jiang Meili was really panicked. If anything happened to her son, she would rather die. She went to find Cheng Qiao, but when she thought of Cheng Qiao helping her mother-in-law with treatment, she sat down helplessly.
Jiang Meili stared at her son lying on the hospital bed, she was extremely anxious and was about to collapse. Jiang Hua was also extremely anxious. She walked to the corridor, took out cigarettes and smoked one after another.
"Dad, stop smoking. Smoking too much is bad for your lungs."
Jiang Hua was startled when he heard the familiar voice and turned around slowly. Li Bing was wearing a green military uniform and standing upright in front of him.
"Li Bing, I'm sorry, I don't want to smoke, but I can't control myself."
Jiang Hua closed his eyes. Li Bing came back so soon. It seemed that the future was not good. It was their Jiang family who ruined this child.
"You should smoke less. Cigarettes can't relieve your sorrow, and they can't solve your problems."
"Li Bing, why don't you...go see your mother first."
Li Bing shook his head. His mother had Cheng Qiao, Li Huan, and Cheng Li's children here, but Meili only had him. If Meili fell, her future life would be even more difficult.
"I'm going to go check on Meili and my son first. I'll come over when they're safe. Why don't you lie down on this bench for a while? I'm worried you won't be able to hold on."
"Okay, okay, go ahead, I'll just lie down on this stool for a while."
Jiang Hua was really very tired. When he saw Li Bing returning, he seemed to feel relieved. He began to snore as soon as he lay down.
When Jiang Meili was feeling depressed, she felt a familiar and warm hand touching her head. She raised her head with a start and saw Li Bing's smiling face.
"Li Bing, I'm sorry, I..."
"Shh... You didn't let me down. You've been very brave. Thank you."
"You...you're still thanking me. Are you also scared silly?"
"Since your path to advancement is blocked, then try to change your career. If that doesn't work, are you willing to come back with me to Xiangyang Village and work as a farmer?"
Jiang Meili's eyes lit up. It turned out that Li Bing had already thought of a way out. It was not to divorce her, but to live a quiet life with her. Her marriage was saved.
She would rather be a peasant woman and live a stable life with her children and husband than live in fear here every day, which would only make her father suffer.
"Li Bing, look at your son. He keeps twitching and won't wake up no matter how much we call him. I'm worried... The doctor said he was frightened. I'm so worried."
Li Bing nodded and reached out to pick up Li Cheng. Li Cheng was trapped in the fortress he built. He felt safe at first, but then he heard his mother calling him, but he couldn't get out, so he became anxious.
His mother kept calling his name, each time sharper and sadder than the last. Li Cheng looked at the vast expanse of white, feeling anxious and at a loss as to what to do, but he really couldn't find a way out.
Suddenly he heard a man's voice, as if his father had come. Then he felt a warm and familiar aura of righteousness entering his body, which was faded away by the white smoke, and his position collapsed.
Li Cheng immediately ran out, raised his hands and hugged Li Bing's neck. His eyes finally opened slowly. Seeing the familiar face in front of him, Li Cheng remembered what his second uncle said, your father is a hero.
"Dad... wow... Dad... Chengcheng is afraid... that grandma will kill someone... wow..."
Li Bing hugged his son tightly and kept comforting him, saying that with his father around, no demons or monsters would dare to bully Li Cheng. With his gentle words, the extremely tired Li Cheng could finally fall asleep normally.
"Meili, you should sleep with Chengcheng too. Look at the dark circles under your eyes. You're almost like a giant panda."
"Are you hungry? Have you reported to Brigade Commander Qin yet? Otherwise, just hold your son and sleep. He will feel at ease with you around."
Li Bing shook his head. The first thing he did when he came back was to report to Qin Daqiang. Qin Daqiang had already told him the whole story.
"Meili, have a good sleep first, and go see my mother early tomorrow morning."
Meili agreed. Between Li's mother and Yuan Qin, she chose Li's mother. Li's mother was emotionally stable and kind, which made Meili feel no pressure to be with her. She felt relaxed and comfortable.
"I'm going to cover your father with a blanket. He'll get frozen if he just lies on the bench. I also need to go see my mother. I can't feel at ease if I don't see her."
Jiang Meili nodded. She also wanted to go, but her son needed someone to stay with him. Now that the backbone of the family was back, the burden on her shoulders was taken over, and she seemed much more relaxed.
In the intensive care unit, Li Huan and Cheng Qiao stayed by Li's mother's bedside. Li's mother was old and had suffered a fatal blow. Although she had the resurrection pill, her various body functions had declined sharply.
Li Huan didn't dare to sit next to Li's mother. He was worried that the cold poison in his body would take advantage of her weakness and invade her body, so Cheng Qiao was the one who served her closely.
