Xie Lanzhi frowned when he heard this and asked coldly, "Which one?"
Chu Lianying was interrupted, thinking he was asking who the girl who was hit was.
"The girl's parents are from a working class background. She is only 19 years old this year. She is still in the hospital. I heard a few days ago that she needed to have her leg amputated. I don't know if she has had the surgery yet. That would cost a lot of money for the surgery."
Xie Lanzhi stared at him coldly: "I'm asking who hit him."
“I thought you were asking about the girl who was hit.” Chu Lianying thought of the culprit, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes: “Lu’s youngest son, his father is the deputy director.”
Xie Lanzhi stared at the cards in his hand and asked thoughtfully, "Lu Wei?"
Chu Lianying nodded: "Yes, that's him! This kid is so arrogant now, he's just a little bully in Beijing City, he won't do anything that has anything to do with other people!"
Liu Sheng added, "Lu Wei's father is a protective person. In order to protect his son, he asked many people for help."
Someone sneered, "On the day of the incident, Deputy Director Lu came to my house to beg for mercy. My parents played dumb and ignored him. Deputy Director Lu left in disgrace."
"I heard from my dad that Deputy Director Lu also came to our house."
"What a sin! At such an old age, I still have to clean up my son's butt..."
Xie Lanzhi listened to everyone's chatter and learned that in the end it was the Jiang family who stepped in to suppress the trouble caused by Lu Wei.
Chu Lianying absentmindedly played a card: "Isn't the Jiang family a little too anxious? They have won over a bad force like the Lu family, aren't they afraid of being bitten back one day?"
Liu Shengzheng sneered: "The wind direction in Beijing has long changed. The Jiang family can no longer sleep soundly. It is not necessary to consolidate its power..."
When he saw the cards Chu Lianying played, he smiled.
“I won!”
The cards in Liu Sheng's hand fell onto the table with a bang.
Chu Lianying's lips twitched: "You are waiting for this card of mine."
Liu Sheng's eyes were filled with ruffian spirit, and he clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you, thank you."

That night.
Qin Shu lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Xie Lanzhi's arm was across her waist, sensing Qin Shu's uneasiness.
He pulled her into his arms, her thin back pressed against his chest: "Can't sleep? Are you used to your bed?"
In the darkness, Qin Shu bit her red lips lightly: "No, I'm thinking about the girl who was hit."
Xie Lan rested his chin on the top of her head, and his voice was low and hoarse.
"Everyone has their own destiny, don't think about it."
Qin Shu said nothing, staring at the curtains penetrated by the moonlight with eyes that were not tired at all.
She was not lamenting the girl's fate, but getting to know her - Zhou Ya, a sad and pitiful female entrepreneur.
Twenty years later, Zhou Ya would die of a recurrence of her leg disease at the peak of her life, collapsing on the hourly news broadcast live across the country.
When Qin Shu thought of Zhou Ya's death, with her temples full of white hair and the vicissitudes and unwillingness in her eyes, her heart was restless.
She turned around, raised her arms, and hooked them around Xie Lanzhi's neck.
"husband--"
The soft and charming voice is elongated and sweet.
Xie Lanzhi raised his eyebrows slightly. When he heard the words, he knew that Qin Shu wanted to ask him something.
He held Qin Shu's head and held her close to him, so that he could feel the cannibalistic impulse stirring in the darkness without any distance.
"Ah Shu, the night is long and we can't sleep, why don't we do something else?"
"..." Qin Shu's body froze.
Before she could even finish her business, Xie Lanzhi was already thinking about cannibalism!
Qin Shu poked the man's hard chest: "Be serious! I'm talking to you about serious matters."
"You talk, I listen."
Xie Lanzhi's palm slid down Qin Shu's waist curve, playing with it lovingly.
The waist is so soft and boneless that it can be grasped with one hand, and it feels incredibly good to the touch.
Qin Shu ignored the abnormality around her waist and said softly, "I want to go see Zhou Ya."
Xie Lanzhi asked indifferently: "Who is Zhou Ya?"
Qin Shu said: "It's the girl who was hit by the youngest son of the Lu family."
Xie Lanzhi stopped moving and stared at Qin Shu with his eyes lowered: "...Do you know that girl?"
Qin Shu could sense Xie Lanzhi's gaze on her, and said calmly, "I don't know her, but I've heard that Zhou Ya is a famous talent at Jingshi University.
She is a rare talent. Our country is currently developing electronic technology, and Zhou Ya specializes in this field. "
Xie Lanzhi asked calmly: "So, you want to save Zhou Ya?"
"Hmm——" Qin Shu made a sound from her nose.
She couldn't help but tighten her arms around Xie Lanzhi's neck.
Qin Shu knew that her words had many loopholes and hoped that Xie Lanzhi would not continue to ask questions.
Xie Lanzhi noticed her uneasiness, pulled her into his arms, and gently rubbed the top of her head.
"Okay, I'll go check which hospital the girl is in."
Qin Shu breathed a sigh of relief, raised her head and kissed Xie Lan on the chin: "Thank you, husband!"
In her previous life, Zhou Ya had lame legs and was targeted by people who admired disabled people.
She had been imprisoned for ten years, and the places that her clothes could not cover were covered with shocking scars.
With the Xie family stepping forward this time, no matter whether Zhou Ya is being targeted or not, she will surely not experience that pain again.
Xie Lanzhi wrapped Qin Shu's small hand with his warm palm and kissed it.
"Okay, go to sleep. I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow."
Qin Shu had already prepared to have some fun with Xie Lanzhi tonight, but she didn't expect that he would be let off so easily.
She looked up at Xie Lanzhi's blurred facial features and asked in a low voice: "You... don't want to do it?"
“Pah—”
Xie Lanzhi patted Qin Shu's hips, his voice gentle and helpless: "Don't you see how late it is? We haven't even had a break since returning from Yunzhen. If I torture you again, will you still get up tomorrow?"
Qin Shu twisted uncomfortably and snorted, "You talk as if I really want to, but you were the one who brought it up first."
Xie Lanzhi sucked in a breath of cold air, held Qin Shu's slender waist in his hands, and told her not to move.
"Stop it, do you really think I'm Liu Xiahui?"
"..." Qin Shu blushed: "Don't talk to me, go to sleep!"
She pinched Xie Lanzhi's waist and turned her back to the man.
Xie Lanzhi looked at his grumpy little wife, a narrow low laugh sounded in the darkness, and he pulled her into his arms again.
"Okay, okay, go to sleep, but I want you to hold me while I sleep..."
The two hugged each other tightly, the fatigue of the day swept over them, and they soon fell into a deep sleep.
At the same time, Beijing City Hospital.
Zhou Ya, who was lying on the hospital bed, had been targeted.
“Hmm—”
Zhou Ya's pale fingers were digging into the bed sheets, she was biting her lips tightly, and her breathing was rapid.
It hurts so much!
Cold sweat soaked the sheets, intertwining with the smell of blood in the air, and suppressed sobs sounded in the dark room.
Outside the ward door stood two well-dressed men.
