Feng An'an and Zhang Youjin also saw the blood on Su Xiulan's hands, and their faces turned even more ashen.
Feng An'an stammered as she explained, "I didn't push her, really."
Police officers on duty at both the front and back entrances rushed in, asking, "Who is Feng An'an?"
Feng An'an hid behind Zhang Youjin and shook his arm, pleading for help: "What should we do!"
Think of something! I don't want to get arrested and taken to the police station! Weren't you always bragging in bed?
"Where are your police brothers?! Call them out to save me!"
Zhang Youjin cursed this stupid woman a thousand times in his heart. He grabbed Feng An'an's hair, pushed her in front of the police, and shouted loudly, "Comrade, she is Feng An'an, it's her!"
Feng An'an shook her head desperately for help; she didn't want to go to jail! Tears and snot streamed down her face as she broke free from Zhang Youjin's grip and knelt at Su Xiulan's feet, begging for mercy.
"Xiulan, please explain to the police officer that I really didn't push you. It was all my fault. I apologize to you and I'm willing to pay compensation. Please, please help me."
Standing protectively in front of the bewildered Su Xiulan, Meng Shuyun slapped her twice across the face, furious.
"If there's anything wrong with my daughter and the baby in her belly, I will never let you off the hook."
"Da Shun, you stay here and explain things to the police. I'll take the men to the hospital first."
Zhang Youjin called out several times, but couldn't stop her. Frustrated, he slapped Feng An'an twice.
"Look what you've done! Go tell the police yourself!"
If this matter isn't handled properly today, he might lose his position as deputy manager.
At this crucial moment, this foolish woman comes to cause trouble for herself.
It's one thing to be sarcastic and weird on ordinary days, but today he's so audacious as to try to kill someone. He must be tired of living!
The police officers on duty tried to stop him verbally, but Zhang Youjin's actions were too fast for them to stop.
“Sir, explain your problem to me. Do not resort to violence.”
Meng Shuyun and Su Xiuju helped the person out of the back door, one on each side. The tricycle hadn't gone far when they called out to go to the hospital immediately.
"It's alright, it's alright, we'll be at the hospital soon, very quickly."
Su Xiulan cried uncontrollably, her eyes brimming with tears as she touched her stomach, feeling a dull ache in her abdomen.
She sobbed uncontrollably, "Mother, if the doctor says whether to save the mother or the child, you must save the child."
Su Xiuju held her second sister's hand, her eyes filled with worry, and gently comforted her, "Second sister, everything will be alright. Hang in there, we'll be at the hospital soon."
The tricycle driver, seeing that something was wrong, pedaled harder, fearing that someone might actually die on his vehicle.
Upon arriving at the hospital, the nurse, sensing something was wrong, immediately called the head of the gynecology department to check on the situation. The head of the gynecology department was a woman in her forties named Zhao Weiying, wearing a mask. When she saw the pregnant woman, her eyes were filled with astonishment.
"Xiulan, it's you! How are you feeling? Nurse, bring a stretcher, we need to get you into the operating room right away."
Meng Shuyun watched as the person was wheeled into the operating room, then told Su Xiuju to wait on a chair in the corridor while she returned to the hospital entrance to pay for the taxi.
"Sir, I'm so sorry, my daughter was in a real emergency just now. Thank you for your help." After handing over two yuan and saying many kind words, the tricycle driver finally left.
Just as they saw the person off, a car pulled up in front of the door, almost hitting Meng Shuyun.
When Meng Shuyun saw the car, she recognized it as Ye Jianguo's car. Why was he at the hospital?
She followed Ye Jianguo inside and saw him talking to the head of the gynecology department. She felt something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
As the nurse wheeled Su Xiulan out of the operating room and back to her ward, Ye Jianguo noticed and immediately went over to check on her.
"Xiulan, how are you? Is there anything else that's bothering you?" Su Xiulan's face showed a look of relief as she rubbed her stomach.
Looking around, she didn't see her mother, but she did see Ye Jianguo. "You're back from your business trip so soon?" she asked instinctively.
Meng Shuyun stepped forward carrying a thermos, and when she saw Ye Jianguo, she just gave a forced smile as a greeting.
When Ye Jianguo saw the person, his first thought was that she was the new caregiver, until Su Xiulan tugged at his sleeve and said, "This is my mother."
Su Xiulan glanced over cautiously, fearing that Ye Jianguo might lose his temper if he didn't recognize her.
Having been married for so many years, Ye Jianguo harbored a deep resentment towards her family. He never visited her family home during holidays, except to send some gifts back to them.
Ye Jianguo looked at Meng Shuyun and only smiled perfunctorily. He reluctantly called out, "Mother, you're here. Fortunately, Xiulan was brought to the hospital by you. She was just frightened, but it's not a big problem."
Meng Shuyun responded with an "oh," feeling annoyed at her son-in-law. Seeing his perfunctory attitude, she had no desire to even acknowledge him. If she could, she would tear off his facade right now.
She took Su Xiulan's hand and asked with concern, "What did the doctor say? Is there a problem?"
"It's nothing, it's not my blood, I was just scared. I need some time to recover." Su Xiulan repeated what the doctor had said, took the warm water her mother handed her, and exclaimed when she saw her bandaged arm.
"Mother, are you injured? How serious is it!"
Upon hearing about the injury, Su Xiuju, who was sitting at a distance, looked over anxiously, her eyes filled with worry. Seeing Ye Jianguo standing nearby, she could only watch from afar.
Meng Shuyun glanced at her arm and said nonchalantly, "It's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about. The nurse has already taken care of it. Your health is the most important thing."
After saying that, she pointed the gun at Ye Jianguo and berated him mercilessly.
