Chapter 205: He's been locked up! I wonder if he'll be sentenced! Will he become lame?
Fu Yubai sighed, "He's been detained for the time being, and he might be prosecuted... I don't really know much about it."
She paused, "You'll have to ask your older brother. But... I think Yan Hao will be fine."
She then looked at the two girls.
The blood on their clothes had dried, but it still smelled fishy.
"Go back to the apartment first, take a shower, change your clothes, and then come with me to the manor." Fu Yubai said as he stood up, "Don't frighten the old lady."
"Mom, Grandma can't know about this, right?"
Zhao Baoqi followed in his mother's footsteps.
“You know, murder is a very serious matter. If... if Yan Hao is acquitted, that would be fine, but if Yan Hao is convicted…” Fu Yubai stood on the corridor, his tired eyes looking out at the morning light.
"Then we should still tell her. It's better to let her know sooner rather than later, so she can be mentally prepared, than to be shocked by a bolt from the blue."
"Well... okay." Zhao Baoqi took Xia Mian's hand and whispered in her ear, "Mianmian, tell my grandma!"
"Why me?" Xia Mian gasped. How could she possibly ask for such a difficult task?
The two girls looked at Fu Yubai, who was walking in front, and spoke in unison.
"My mom said!"
"Auntie said!"
...
The VIP ward in the hospital was very quiet.
Fu Yanchen slowly opened his eyes, feeling as if his calf was about to break, the wound burning with pain.
He didn't dare to move at all, only daring to twist his neck and look around.
"My Chenchen!" Old Madam Fu's voice suddenly rang out, choked with sobs, and Fu Yanchen subconsciously looked towards her.
"grandmother……"
He tried to clear his throat, and it felt like a knife was cutting into it.
"My dear child, would you like some water?" Old Madam Fu stood up to pour water for her grandson.
A slender hand had already taken a glass of water and brought it to Fu Yanchen's lips.
Fu Lichen supported his waist and lifted him up to sit, trying to keep his injured leg still.
They even put a pillow under him so he could drink water smoothly.
After drinking some water, his throat finally felt a bit better. He looked up and met Old Madam Fu's red eyes. "Grandma, I..."
“Good boy, Grandma knows everything.” Madam Fu held her grandson’s hand, and she couldn’t help but want to cry again. “You’ve suffered so much. The doctor said that after you recover from your injury, as long as you persist with rehabilitation, you will definitely recover completely.”
She was terrified that her perfectly healthy grandson would become a cripple.
It's bad enough that this child is autistic, but what if he's also lame? What will happen to him in the future?
“Mian, Mian…” Fu Yanchen nodded and looked at Madam Fu with longing eyes.
"Mianmian? She's fine. She and Baoqi went home." Madam Fu had just received a call from Fu Yubai. Fu Yubai and the two girls hadn't slept all night, and they were catching up on sleep now.
“She and Baoqi stayed at the police station all night. I’ll have them come to see you when they wake up.”
"Your most important thing right now is to take good care of your health, okay?"
Madam Fu said softly to her grandson, "Yan Hao, he's been locked up for the time being. Don't worry... he'll be fine."
Fu Yanchen didn't speak again. He lowered his eyes, his thoughts drifting back to last night...
Yan Hao was really fierce back then. He regretted that he wasn't the one who saw the fruit knife and killed that bad guy.
He felt some regret and was very sad.
He wished it was him who saved Mianmian, not Yan Hao… He would rather go to jail than let it be him…
While Xia Mian and Zhao Baoqi were still pondering how to tell Madam Fu, they were unaware that Zhao Liangyuan had already brought the old lady to the hospital to be with her grandson.
The two girls returned to the Fu family manor. Zhao Baoqi didn't go back to his own room, but instead went to sleep in Xia Mian's room.
I'm so sleepy!
I'm so tired!
I've been through so much fright again!
Xia Mian slept until after 3 p.m. before waking up. She glanced at Zhao Baoqi, who was still sleeping soundly beside her.
She quietly got up and, so as not to disturb Zhao Baoqi, quietly went to the guest room next door to wash up before going downstairs to find something to eat.
When the housekeeper saw her, she immediately came over and said with concern, "Miss Xia, what would you like to eat? The chicken soup and some other dishes that were made at noon are still warm in the kitchen!"
"Anything is fine, let's eat whatever's available." Xia Mian was starving, she didn't have time to be picky.
The aunt quickly brought out three dishes and a soup, along with a bowl of rice.
Xia Mian was enjoying her meal when she heard Zhao Baoqi calling her in a panicked voice, "Mianmian! Mianmian!"
"Baoqi? I'm eating!" Xia Mian took another bite of food. "Why are you awake? I was trying not to wake you!"
Zhao Baoqi rushed towards the restaurant, and only after seeing that Xia Mian was unharmed did she breathe a sigh of relief. "You scared me to death!"
Xia Mian looked at her, puzzled, and discovered that the girl hadn't even put on shoes and had run downstairs barefoot.
"Are you crazy? You're not even wearing shoes? The floor is so cold! It's getting cold outside!"
She immediately asked the aunt to bring Zhao Baoqi a pair of slippers and watched Zhao Baoqi put them on.
“I forgot, I just had a dream that we ran into a murderer again…” Zhao Baoqi sat down next to Xia Mian with lingering fear and rested his head on her shoulder.
"Mianmian, I woke up in fright, and when I saw you weren't in bed, I rushed down to look for you."
Xia Mian felt a warmth in her heart and subconsciously fed Zhao Baoqi a bite of mushroom. "Eat some food to calm your nerves."
...
Xia Family Villa.
Lu Lian'er only stays in the dormitory occasionally; she usually comes back. After all, the three Xia brothers can't do without her.
If they didn't get together for two or three days and play with Dai Tao and Wu Tao, they would feel lonely, empty, and cold.
After she got home, she went to see Shen Yingshuang first. "Godmother, I don't know what's wrong with my sister today. She didn't go to school. She didn't come to school all day."
Shen Yingshuang was looking at the computer when she heard her voice and looked up from the screen. "Mianmian didn't go to class? Did she take a leave of absence?"
"Maybe..." Lu Lian'er said meaningfully, "Zhao Baoqi didn't come either, nor did her two twin brothers. It's quite strange!"
She seemed to be talking to herself, "Could it be that the four of them went out together?"
"It shouldn't be, my sister values her studies a lot. Could something have happened to her?"
"Or has something happened?"
Shen Yingshuang's gaze turned cold. "Can you stop jinxing me? What could possibly happen to Mianmian?"
"I'm...I'm just worried about my sister, aren't I?" Lu Lian'er pretended to be worried.
