With the medicine Zhang Qinghua brought back, Doctor Gao quickly prepared the medicine and had Song Lili drink a bowl of it while it was still hot.
The medicine didn't take effect so quickly, and Dr. Gao didn't leave until an hour later, when Song Lili could no longer feel the pain. Only then did Dr. Gao stop pressing the acupoints and breathe a sigh of relief.
"Alright, you're fine for now, but you'll need to rest in bed from now on and can't move around anymore. You can get out of bed after three months."
"But you still need to be careful then. This time you've been in too much danger, and I can't say for sure."
To be honest, there are very few cases like Song Lili's where she can ultimately keep her child.
Although we've managed to hold on for now, we can't be completely at ease; we still need to see what happens next.
"Thank you, Dr. Gao, I'll remember that." Zhang Qinghua, who had been standing nervously to the side, relaxed but also became anxious upon hearing Dr. Gao's words.
Song Lili was the same; her heart was also pounding, dangling precariously in mid-air, with no foothold.
The family politely saw Dr. Gao off, and then gathered around Song Lili with worried expressions.
Song Lili felt guilty. In the end, it was her own willfulness that led to this outcome.
She was somewhat afraid to face them.
"Alright, we're disturbing Lili's rest here. Let's all go out and let Lili get some rest."
"Dr. Gao also said that everything is fine for now, so go do what you need to do and don't stay here." In the end, it was Zhang Shengtian who spoke up and kicked Zhang Qingguo, Wang Daming, and the others out.
Finally, he politely said to Song Yongren, "Let's go out too, so that Lili can get some rest."
Song Yongren nodded and instructed Song Lili, "You need to rest well, and you can't do anything reckless again, understand?"
"I understand." Song Lili's face was still pale, but she nodded obediently.
Even if they didn't say anything, she would still stay in bed to rest. She didn't want anything to happen to her stomach because of her.
Her children are her children no matter where they are, and she cares about them.
After everyone left, only the couple remained. Song Lili stretched out her hand, "Come a little closer, I can't reach you."
Seeing Zhang Qinghua standing there coldly, Song Lili acted coquettishly, her voice soft and gentle, displaying the typical affectation of a young woman.
"..."
The response she received was silence, a silent, lifeless silence.
Song Lili struggled, pretending to get up. She knew Zhang Qinghua was angry, and seeing his lonely figure, she felt sorry for him.
"Lie down, what are you doing?" Sure enough, Zhang Qinghua could no longer remain silent and quickly grabbed Song Lili.
Taking advantage of the moment, Song Lili grabbed Zhang Qinghua's arm and hugged him tightly. "But you're ignoring me. You don't even want to talk to me," she said pitifully.
What else could Zhang Qinghua say? All that remained was deep helplessness.
She acts so recklessly because she knows he won't do anything to her.
"I...I know I was wrong. I will really behave this time. I promise I won't run away."
Song Lili spoke softly and sweetly, as she made her promise to Zhang Qinghua, whose face was cold.
“I did this because I was worried. I’m also very worried about our child, and I love him very much.”
“I don’t want anything to happen to him either, but this time I have to buy you time. If the people in town find something to use against us, then life in Hongqi Village will be a thousand times more difficult.”
“I don’t want you to go through those things, and I don’t want anyone else to go through them, so I have to do this.”
Even though she knew in her heart that it was dangerous for her, she still did it without hesitation.
She had a reason to do it.
"Don't do this again. You're terrifying, you know? I don't know if I could avoid doing this again. This time, you really scared me to death."
Zhang Qinghua remained silent, knowing in his heart that Song Lili was right.
Today, if she hadn't argued with Chen Erhua to buy time, they wouldn't have had time to make arrangements and would definitely have been discovered by Wu Yi and the others.
Because of her delay, they completed the most important deployment, and with their subsequent adaptability, they managed to weather the crisis without serious incident.
He couldn't blame her at all, because he had no right to blame her; everything she did was for the village.
Song Lili didn't actually have that much awareness; she just wanted to protect the people she needed to protect, and the others were just incidental.
Hearing Zhang Qinghua's helpless, distressed, and frightened voice, he quickly nodded, "It will never happen again, I promise."
This time, she was terrified; she couldn't bear it if it happened again.
After this incident, I believe everyone will be more vigilant, and such things should not happen again.
Furthermore, Brother Qian probably won't let it go so easily with Xiao Yue. From now on, she just needs to take good care of herself and the little one in her belly.
This day was an ordinary day, but also a thrilling one, and for Hongqi Village, it was a day filled with fear.
Thankfully, we made it through safely in the end.
Just as she said, from that day on, Song Lili never asked about anything outside again; she only asked Zhang Qinghua about the result.
"Wang Shan was released, but everyone in the village knows that she was responsible for this incident, and they all despise her."
"Now, wherever she goes, people point and whisper about her, and some people get upset and curse at her."
That's right, if we couldn't afford her, none of us would have been so frightened.
"That's her own fault, she deserves it, she has no one to blame but herself," Song Lili said coldly.
She blamed everything on Wang Shan; otherwise, who would she hold accountable for the child she almost lost?
"Then... what about those people?" Song Lili stopped asking about Wang Shan; from now on, she would be an enemy to her. Instead, she asked about the others.
She still remembers that day; those people suffered a lot, especially Mu Shaohua and the others, who were older and she didn't know if they could make it through.
"They're all fine, just some minor injuries. It's nothing serious. Dr. Gao has examined them, and they'll be alright after some rest." Zhang Qinghua knew who she was most concerned about, so she quickly told her what she knew.
"That's good," Song Lili finally felt relieved, as long as they were alright.
"Alright, I'll take care of everything, you don't need to worry about it. The most important thing for you now is to get your health back as soon as possible."
"Look at your face now, it's so pale, it breaks my heart to see it like this." Zhang Qinghua cupped his face, stopping her from asking any more questions, and said jokingly.
Song Lili couldn't help but touch her cheek. "Is it really that bad?"
Surely not? She's been eating and sleeping these past few days, not thinking about anything else, and she's in a great mood. How could she be in a bad mood?
That shouldn't be the case. Logically speaking, it should have been fine by now.
