Xiang Pengfei looked at Zhou Yuxiang and said, "Fine! Since you won't allow me to explain, I won't explain either. Goodbye!"
"It's not goodbye, it's never seeing you again!"
"Fine, never see you again!"
Zhou Yuxiang didn't get into Xiang Pengfei's car again, but instead took a taxi and left!
After watching the taxi disappear from sight, Xiang Pengfei got into his own car and drove towards the hospital.
When Xiang Pengfei arrived at the hospital, he found his uncle and aunt packing their things, so he asked, "Uncle, are you being discharged?"
Zhuang Chaoying nodded and said, "Yes, it's been several days since the surgery. Your aunt misses home. She's just resting here; she might as well go home to rest!"
"What did the doctor say?"
"Going back now is fine, but the surgical incision has just healed, so be careful not to reopen the wound!"
Xiang Pengfei said with some concern, "Since it's so dangerous, it's better to stay in the hospital! It's not too late to go back after you've fully recovered!"
"That's what I advised too, but your aunt is worried about Xiaoting. She's heavily pregnant and it's inconvenient for her to come, so naturally your aunt has to go home to see her!"
Xiang Pengfei walked a few steps closer to Huang Ling, who was packing her things, and said, "Aunt, why don't you stay a few more days? Until you've fully recovered?"
As Huang Ling tidied up, she said, "Pengfei, I'm fine now. I don't need an IV drip here anymore. It's just waiting from dawn to dusk and from dusk to dawn. Wouldn't it be better to go home? Chatting and laughing with the neighbors by the newsstand would be much better."
"Your wound has just healed, hasn't it? I'm worried something might happen. It's better to have the doctor with you so it's easier to get treatment if something goes wrong. It's not convenient to go home without a doctor!"
"It's alright, Pengfei, don't worry! I'll be careful, nothing will happen!"
"What about Brother Tunan?"
“Tu Nan can stay in the hospital for a couple more days. His injury is different from mine. My surgery only took a few hours and the wound healed and the stitches came back in seven days. His was a car scratch, which is not a minor injury. He needs to take good care of himself!”
"Okay, then I'll go see him, and then I'll take you all back with me."
"Hey, don't be in such a hurry! Your uncle still needs to go through the discharge procedures, it won't be finished in less than an hour, there are too many procedures, it's troublesome!"
"Okay, Auntie!"
Xiang Pengfei then moved from this ward to Zhuang Tunan's ward.
In the ward, Anna was helping Zhuang Tunan learn to walk. At this time, Zhuang Tunan's legs were not fully healed, and both feet were leaning to the right. If Anna did not help him walk forward, Zhuang Tunan would spin around to the right in place!
As soon as Xiang Pengfei entered the room, he asked, "How are you? Feeling better?"
Zhuang Tunan, who had been looking down, quickly looked up and said, "Sigh, it takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone. I've already rested for over a hundred days, and just when I was about to recover, I had to rest for another hundred days. What kind of life do I have? It's so hard!"
"Stop complaining! Others can't even get a break if they want to!"
"I'd rather be busy myself than lie here like a dead person, unable to move. It's too uncomfortable. Pengfei, you've never been injured, you don't understand!"
"Forget it, I'd rather not understand. You stay here and rest for a few more days! My aunt is being discharged today. Let's see who goes first, then who goes last!"
Zhuang Tunan looked up at Xiang Pengfei again and asked, "Is my mother going to be discharged from the hospital?"
"Yes! My aunt looks much better than you. Don't let her age fool you, she's got a lot of energy. You, on the other hand, are like a wounded soldier right now!"
Zhuang Tunan said with self-reproach, "Alas, what kind of fate do I have? My leg was just starting to heal when I got into a car accident. It's like God only hits those with cripples, as if He's afraid they'll get better!"
Anna, who was supporting Zhuang Tunan, also said, "I'm sorry, Tunan. It's my fault for being useless and not taking good care of you, making you suffer so much!"
When Zhuang Tunan saw Anna starting to blame herself, he quickly comforted her, saying, "Anna, don't say that! This isn't your fault. In such a dangerous situation, one always has to make a choice. Either I or you would have been hurt. I would rather it had been me who was hurt, otherwise I would feel guilty towards you for the rest of my life!"
Anna, still blaming herself, said, "I was wrong, I was wrong. I shouldn't have pulled the cart backwards like that, causing you to get scratched by a car. I... sigh!"
Seeing that the two of them were both reflecting on their actions, Xiang Pengfei quickly said, "Alright! You two stop arguing. Whoever gets hurt should bear it! I'll go see my aunt off first, and then I'll bring you food when I get back. Don't worry if I'm late! I'll definitely be back!"
Anna nodded and said, "Cousin, go ahead! I'll keep an eye on things here, so don't worry!"
Xiang Pengfei then turned and left Zhuang Tunan's ward.
Let's go back to the story of Zhao Ping carrying the packed food into Zhao Rong's ward. Although Zhao Hujiang, Zhao Hai, and Zhao Rong were all awake, they were really hungry. Perhaps they knew that Zhao Ping would bring food, and they were looking forward to Zhao Ping's arrival.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Ping entered the house, the three of them began to complain that she was late. Zhao Rong, in particular, looked at Zhao Ping with a strange expression and said, "Sister, tell me honestly, did you do anything you shouldn't have done last night?"
As Zhao Ping opened the lunchbox, she asked Zhao Rong, puzzled, "What are the things that shouldn't be done?"
Zhao Rong immediately said, "Of course it's not suitable for children!"
Upon hearing Zhao Rong's words, Zhao Ping blushed with embarrassment and reached out as if to hit Zhao Rong.
Zhao Rong was also frightened and covered herself with the blanket, afraid that Zhao Ping would really hit her.
Zhao Hujiang laughed and said, "You silly child, how dare you ask such a question? You can't ask such random questions. This is a hospital, a public place. You can't act recklessly here!"
Hiding under the covers, Zhao Rong made a face and said, "Okay, Dad, I was wrong!"
Zhao Ping stopped arguing with her, took a plate of steamed buns from her lunchbox, handed it to Zhao Rong, and said, "Eat up! You little glutton!"
Zhao Rong naturally didn't stand on ceremony with Zhao Ping. She took the plate of steamed buns and began to wolf them down.
Zhao Hai took a few fried dough sticks and started eating.
Zhao Ping handed the bottle of soy milk to Zhao Hujiang and said, "Dad, you can have this!"
Before Zhao Hujiang could even speak, Zhao Rong, her mouth full of steamed bun filling, said, "No, I want soy milk. Let Dad have eight-treasure rice! That'll satisfy my hunger. I'll have thin soy milk!"
Zhao Hujiang said with a smile, "Yes, yes. Let Rongrong drink soy milk. She likes it sweet. She's a patient, so she should be allowed to choose!"
And so, the Zhao family of four enjoyed their meal in a harmonious atmosphere.
When Xiang Pengfei arrived at Zhao Rong's ward, it was almost noon. Only Zhao Hujiang and Zhao Ping, the two sisters, were in the ward. Zhao Hai was probably busy with something.
As soon as Xiang Pengfei arrived at the ward door, Zhao Ping saw him and said, "Pengfei, you're here! Have you gotten the divorce certificate yet?"
Xiang Pengfei nodded and said, "Yes, it's all taken care of. I just came to say hello. My aunt is being discharged from the hospital, and I'm going to take them home!"
"Oh, go ahead then! You can come back when you have time!"
Zhao Hujiang interjected, "Yes, when you're done with your work, come back and we'll discuss your marriage with Zhao Ping!"
Xiang Pengfei said in surprise, "Uncle Zhao, are you serious?"
Zhao Hujiang's face darkened, and he said, "What? Do you think I'm taking this lightly? This is Ping'er's life-long happiness, how can I joke about it?"
"Oh, okay! I'll come back when I'm done with this and we can discuss it!"
At this moment, Zhao Rong said, "Brother-in-law, you have to hurry! My sister and I are waiting for you to come back!"
Zhao Hujiang laughed and said to Zhao Rong, "You silly girl, why are you so talkative!"
Zhao Rong made another funny face, hugged Zhao Ping who was sitting by the hospital bed, and laughed.
At this moment, Xiang Pengfei simply nodded and said, "Okay, I'll get back to work!"
The moment Xiang Pengfei turned to leave the ward, a look of displeasure appeared on his face. He only had less than ten yuan on him, and he didn't know how to marry Zhao Ping. So, he was under immense pressure and didn't know how to bring it up.
