In the hospital, there was a flurry of activity. After emergency treatment, Mr. Lin was wheeled back to the ward. He closed his eyes, lay on the bed, and held Lin Lishan's hand tightly.
Soon, Lin Liying and her husband, Lin Aiguo and his wife, and their two children came into the ward one after another.
Lin Liying immediately stepped forward and pulled over the crying sisters Lin Xuezhen and Lin Xuezhen, who had red eyes, and asked in a low voice what was going on.
Lin Xuezhen kept shaking her head.
Mrs. Lin, who was in the nursing home, heard from the phone that Mr. Lin had fainted at Zhou's house and was now in the hospital. She hurriedly asked someone to take her to the hospital.
In the VIP ward, medical staff are guarding the reception room.
Mrs. Lin, who rushed over after hearing the news, did not rush in directly. She first asked Xiao Zhou at the door a few questions, and when she saw that he did not know the details, she waved him away.
Xiao Zhou looked up and rolled his eyes as he left, then returned to the guards. Facing the comforting looks from his brothers, he shook his head.
After listening to the doctor's explanation of the patient's condition in the reception room, Mrs. Lin quickly entered the ward and reached out to Lin Lishan, who was standing beside her. Zhang Guoqing grabbed her wrist tightly.
All of a sudden, everyone gathered around.
Zhang Guoqing frowned and held on tightly.
Old Madam Lin glared at him angrily. "Since when have you, Zhang, been able to control me? You peasant, don't think you can just rely on Zhou Xiaozheng, that beast, to bully people..."
"Enough. What else do you want to do to our Lin family?" Old Master Lin shouted, interrupting her insults.
Zhang Guoqing violently shook off Mrs. Lin's wrist, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and gently wiped his right hand. He smiled at the angry Lin family members and threw the neat handkerchief to the ground.
Zhang Guoqing glanced at Old Lady Lin and saw that she was so angry that she was slapping her lips. He smiled with satisfaction and patted Lin Lishan who was circling around him.
"Mom, you are a member of the Zhou family." After saying that, Zhang Guoqing followed Old Cheng out the door.
The guards at the gate smiled at Zhang Guoqing as he emerged. Everyone had heard what had just happened, and they felt deeply uncomfortable. Some things were hard to say, but comfort was essential.
Zhang Guoqing smiled bitterly and shook his head at them, then came to Mr. Cheng who was waiting for him in the corridor.
Old Cheng suppressed a smile. It was such a relief! He should have given that old woman such a hard time.
"Your mother-in-law didn't understand what you just said." Old Cheng shook his head and said regretfully. If a smart person had followed his son-in-law out long ago, why would he stay inside?
Zhang Guoqing smiled but said nothing. He was speaking to the Lin family.
"From now on, don't interfere in the affairs of your mother-in-law and the Lin family. That old woman is a lunatic! She attacks without asking any questions and still calls herself a lady from a noble family."
Zhang Guoqing smiled again. After all, she was his mother-in-law. No matter who it was, no one could dare to attack her under his nose. As for the insult just now, he remembered it in his heart. He hoped that she would live a long and healthy life. He would see if this peasant like him was just a bully? And see what would happen to this lady from a noble family?
"Aunt, please go back first. I'll wait for Jiaojiao to come."
How could Mr. Cheng dare to leave? He was now worried that Zhou Xiaozheng and his daughter would clash with the Lin family. He quickly pointed to the next ward and asked the guard to open the door.
Half an hour had passed when Lin Lishan came out.
Zhang Guoqing looked at his mother-in-law, who was full of guilt and hesitant to speak, and laughed. Seeing the expressions of some of the Lin family members outside, he knew that some things must have been shaken.
Facing Lin Lishan, he didn't know what to say. Everything happened so suddenly tonight, and he still didn't know what was going on. He could only rely on his own analysis.
Old Cheng looked at Lin Lishan, stood up and said, "Jiaojiao must have been scared tonight. I don't know what's going on now. I'll go to the gate to see who comes."
Upon hearing this, Lin Lishan quickly ran out, saying, "I'll go, I can run fast." As she ran, she slapped her head, secretly regretting how she could have forgotten this.
Zhang Guoqing had been wanting to go back for a while, but he was worried they'd gotten sidetracked and wouldn't be able to meet again. He was more worried about Zhou Xiaozheng and his daughter dealing with the rude and rambunctious Gu Ruyi than about Zhou Jiao being frightened. That old woman was like dog shit; even just touching her was disgusting. And with Lin Lishan around, he couldn't just back off and kick her out.
"Jiaojiao, it doesn't matter as my dad and aunt are here. She hasn't come for so long, maybe she has something to say. Let's go slowly, we're almost there."
Old Cheng pulled Zhang Guoqing aside and whispered, "You should have heard what the doctor said just now. Since Old Lin's health is failing, he must retire. The Lin family will blame everything on Jiaojiao, so you'll have to help your father-in-law keep an eye on things going forward."
Zhang Guoqing was about to reply to him when he unexpectedly saw a scene happening at the distant stairs that he would never forget.
"Jiaojiao, be careful!"
He jumped out of the corridor fence and quickly jumped down from the second floor, holding onto the pillar.
Zhang Guoqing's scream was particularly tragic in the dead of night. Medical staff and the patient's family members rushed out immediately.
Old Cheng was startled by Zhang Guoqing. He quickly leaned over the fence and yelled, "Quick! Xiao Chen, go check on Xiao Wu!"
At this moment, there were bursts of exclamations from the distance, accompanied by Zhou Xiaozheng's shout, "Head, protect your head."
Old Cheng's heart trembled. He looked in the distance and saw Zhang Guoqing and a group of people running to the first floor of the building. Something happened. He suddenly collapsed to the ground, and his eyes went dark.
"Doctor, help, come quickly." Zhang Guoqing ran to Lin Lishan and Zhou Jiao, not daring to move, and asked the mother and daughter to wait for the doctor to come.
"Brother, I'm fine. Mom was hit and bleeding while protecting me. Dad, please help me catch the person. Someone wants to kill me!" Zhou Jiao shouted loudly.
Everything just now was premeditated. ——This time someone really wants to kill her!
Following Zhou Jiao's loud shout, the crowd was in an uproar.
Zhou Xiaozheng forbade anyone to approach and quickly tended to the injuries of the mother and daughter. Hearing his daughter's cries, he felt a murderous rage. In the brief moment the car stopped, his wife and daughter collapsed to the ground.
"Don't be afraid. Don't move. Wait for the doctor to come. Dad will avenge you. No one can escape!"
"Jiaojiao, wait for me!" When Zhang Guoqing saw the doctor coming, he stood up and pushed the crowd away, then with a cold face, he quickly kicked down the doors of the offices opposite.
As the door collapsed, hospital security rushed forward to stop it.
When the sound of the third door collapsing was heard, Zhang Guoqing had already grabbed Lin Xuelin's neck and dragged her out like a chicken.
Zhou Xiaozheng's guard, Xiao Wang, and the others quickly pulled the security guard away. What a tactless person! He didn't even look at Xiao Zhou and just stood there motionless.
Lin Aiguo and others who arrived late saw Lin Xuelin rolling her eyes and hurriedly tried to grab her.
"Don't come over here! Believe it or not, I will strangle her to death!" After saying that, Zhang Guoqing kicked the flower bed beside him, and in an instant, the flower bed collapsed to the ground.
He dragged her to the opposite staircase and threw her to the ground. Pointing at the middle-aged man crying in fear nearby, he said to Zhou Jiao on the bracket, "She was the one who pushed that uncle around the corner, causing the heavy object in his hand to fall on you. Afterwards, I watched her run down the stairs, ignoring you, and towards the other side. I saw it with my own eyes, and she wasn't wronged at all."
A doctor nearby interjected, "The patient is more important."
Zhou Xiaozheng glanced at Lin Xuelin lying on the ground, then turned to see his wife with her eyes closed, her face covered in blood and tears. He then looked at Lin Aiguo and his wife, who were lying on the ground holding their daughter.
He nodded and said, "The Lin family will give us an explanation for this matter. Xiaowu, follow Dad."
After hearing this, Zhang Guoqing stared at Lin Xuelin lying on the ground unwillingly.
Zhou Jiao watched as a tearful Chen Jingru embraced the culprit and wept bitterly. A sorrowful Lin Aiguo crouched down and hugged his wife. She smiled sarcastically. It was true that biological children were different after all; a younger sister was always an outsider.
"Brother, don't get your hands dirty. It's not worth it for someone like this."
Zhang Guoqing held her hand tightly when he heard this. He almost couldn't see his Jiaojiao anymore. Why? As the stretcher left, he turned back and looked at Lin Xuelin deeply.
Lin Liying collapsed on Li Jianjun, looking at Lin Lishan and her group leaving, then looking at Lin Aiguo and his family lying on the ground. She kept asking, how could this happen?
Li Jianjun glanced at his brother-in-law and his family on the ground, then helped Lin Liying out of this troubled place. He couldn't answer this question. As Lin Xuezhen described it, he realized that the Zhou and Lin families had fallen out, involving lives and money, all of which were taken. Why had this happened? He wanted to know.
