Chapter 118 Childhood

"Wife~"

Wen Ci rolled his eyes at him again. Considering that the dog man was an injured patient, he helped him this time, but there would definitely not be a next time.

Wen Ci reached out to unbuckle the man's belt and asked casually, "Do you have a childhood friend named Xu Jinghe?"

"Well, what's the matter?"

Xu Jinghe was his best friend when he was young. Later, the two families separated due to work transfers, but he and Xu Jinghe would still get together every year.

"He has a sister?"

Hearing this, Huo Jingyuan frowned slightly, looked at Wen Ci sideways, and asked in disbelief: "How did you know? Did Xu Jinghe call you?"

Xu Jinghe knew about his marriage, had seen photos of Wen Ci, and said that he would come to the northwest to visit her in person during the New Year.

“I guess so.”

"Well, what does that mean?"

Wen Ci did not speak. He waited for Huo Jingyuan to finish using the toilet, then returned to the bed to hang up the IV bottle, and explained calmly: "Didn't I tell you that I found a child? Both his parents died and he was kidnapped from the orphanage by human traffickers."

"Um."

He knows all these things.

Wen Ci continued: "Yesterday, Captain Xu of the military camp said that the human traffickers had been arrested..."

"What does this have to do with Xu Jing?"

Wen Ci came up to the man, pinched his tough face, and said gently: "Do you really have to butt in? Do you think the trafficking has anything to do with Xu Jinghe?"

"Won't."

"Then why are you butting in?"

Suddenly, Wen Ci took a breath of cold air.

Since Huo Jingyuan and Xu Jinghe were childhood friends, Huo Jingyuan must also know Xiaochuan's biological mother. There was a hint of sadness in her eyes as she looked at the man.

Before Wen Ci could speak, Huo Jingyuan realized something, connected all the stories together, tilted his head and asked: "The child you picked up is actually Xu Jinghe's nephew?!"

Wen Ci nodded: "Well, he called the home phone last night and said that you and he were childhood friends, so I thought I'd come and ask you to confirm it."

Huo Jingyuan narrowed his eyes, and the voice and smile of the eldest sister of the Xu family seemed to appear in front of him, "Eldest sister of the Xu family, when we got married before, Xu Jinghe and I even tried to snatch the bride."

"Killing the bride?"

"Well, Sister Xu is a generation older than Jing He and I. She married a poor boy whose grandfather was a traitor despite her parents' objections, and thus severed ties with her family."

Wen Ci’s eyes widened.

There was a traitor among my grandfather's generation, which is a very serious problem. Since the Huo and Xu families are acquainted with each other, they may have served in the army.

No wonder he cut off ties with his family.

If this happened in a military family.

It's such a disgrace.

"Can you bring Xiaochuan again tomorrow?"

"Can."

Huo Jingyuan held Wen Ci's hand and felt that marrying her was the luckiest thing in his life. If Wen Ci hadn't picked up Xiaochuan, Xiaochuan might still be living on the streets.

They might be found by human traffickers and taken to other places.

At this time, the attending doctor pushed the door open and walked in. He was followed by several nurses. He asked with a smile on his face, "Captain Huo, when do you want to remove the stitches?"

"Can I decide?" Huo Jingyuan asked.

"Your wound healed very well. After the stitches were removed and you rested for half a year, you were able to resume high-intensity training."

"Can we tear it down now?"

The attending doctor pulled the corner of his mouth stiffly, trying his best to restrain his speechlessness, "It's okay to remove it now, but there is no anesthesia. There will be anesthesia the day after tomorrow."

He tried to use the excuse that there was no anesthetic to make Captain Huo give up the idea of ​​removing the stitches today.

"No need for anesthesia then."

Attending doctor: “…”

Huo Jingyuan looked at the doctor: "No?"

He was unconscious when he was first injured, but the wound needed emergency treatment on the way, and there was no anesthetic on the plane, so he had to sew it up.

Although he was in a coma, he woke up from the pain.

Without waiting for the doctor to answer, Wen Ci stared at Huo Jingyuan and said seriously, "No, wait until we have anesthesia before we remove the stitches."

"I want to go home."

"You want me to go home and wait on you?"

Several nurses standing behind the attending physician couldn't help but laugh out loud. They usually gave Captain Huo infusions and changed his dressings, but his cold look made them terrified.

Unexpectedly.

Captain Huo behaved like this in front of his wife.

Huo Jingyuan closed his mouth.

·

After returning home from the visit, Wen Ci noticed that the gate of the courtyard was open, and even the door of the inner room was not closed.

Wen Ci frowned and walked quickly into the house.

Wen Yaozu was comforting Xiaochuan in the living room. He clenched his fists and waved them left and right. "If that bad aunt comes again next time, I will help you beat her away."

Xiaochuan's body was shaking, his eyes were shining brightly, and he choked up and said, "Thank you, Boss."

Wen Yaozu touched his head.

Wen Ci, who had just entered the house, heard Yao Zu's words and asked, "Has anyone been to our house?"

Wen Yaozu heard his sister's voice, stood up from the sofa and complained: "There was a weird aunt who came into the house for no reason and scared Xiaochuan."

Xiaochuan said softly: "I have seen that auntie before. She is in another house."

Immediately, Wen Ci knew who had been there.

She never thought that Ms. Su, as the biological mother, would not only come to question her after hearing a few words from others, but actually break into her house.

A hint of chill flashed across Wen Ci's eyes.

If Huo Jingyuan hadn't been injured, he wouldn't have wanted to have any more contact with the Jiang family.

After some comfort, Ogawa calmed down.

Wen Ci reached out and rubbed Xiaochuan's head, then sat on the sofa and asked softly, "Xiaochuan, do you still remember your uncle lying in the ward?"

Xiaochuan nodded: "Remember."

"That uncle is your uncle's childhood friend."

"What is a childhood sweetheart?"

Wen Ci blinked and said it another way: "Faxiao means good friends."

At this time, the landline phone rang again. After Wen Ci answered the phone, Xu Jinghe's voice rang out: "Now you believe that I am Jing Yuan's childhood friend, right?"

"I believe it."

Xu Jinghe's voice is as gentle as jade.

"Can I call you sister-in-law?"

Wen Ci: ...

In the northwest, Huo Jingyuan's subordinates also call her sister-in-law.

Why does my childhood friend want to be friends with my sister-in-law?

"You are younger than Huo Jingyuan?" Wen Ci asked curiously.

"Yes."

Hearing this, Wen Ci was speechless.

Among men, whoever is older is always the boss.

Xiaochuan looked at the landline phone and said, "Sister, is this a call from my uncle?"

"Yes." Wen Ci looked at Xiaochuan and answered.

Xu Jinghe: "Sister-in-law, I want to trouble you for something. I have a problem here and cannot get away for the time being. Can you help send Xiaochuan back?"

Wen Ci's eyelids drooped slightly.

When in the hospital, Huo Jingyuan mentioned that Xu Jinghe was now doing trading business, and he had turned down many things in order to come to Beijing in person to pick up Xiaochuan.

"I can book a flight for my sister-in-law and she can return to Beijing on the same day."

There are flights between the capital and many provincial capitals, with two round trips a day. If you are in a hurry, you can leave the capital in the morning and come back in the afternoon.
