It was not until the door of the emergency room was pushed open and Zhu Weidong came out holding Ji Ling that Ji Jianhua got up and went over.

"How is Xiaoling?"

"I'll carry her to the ward first." Zhu Weidong took his anger out on Ji's family and left with the person in his arms.

Ji Jianhua stood there blankly.

Ji Yong came over, "Jianhua, go and treat your wound first."

"No need, let's wait until Xiaoke comes out." Ji Jianhua sat back weakly.

Ji Yong sat next to his son. His wife opposite him was still crying, but Ji Yong had no intention of comforting her.

"Dad, Xiaoling is pregnant, and we can't use anesthesia when treating the wound." Ji Jianhua buried his face in his hands, tears streaming down his face.

Ji Yong opened his mouth and said, "Xiaoling is very strong."

strong?

Ji Jianhua felt extremely ironic when he heard these two words. His mother just said that, but his father didn't even say a word of criticism? This was what hurt Xiaoling the most.

Ji Jianhua blames his father and also himself.

Time passed little by little, the lights in the operating room went out, the doctor came out, and Xu Fang rushed over.

"Doctor, how is my daughter?"

"The patient is fine. We'll see what symptoms he has after he wakes up." The doctor nodded and left.

Hearing that her daughter was fine, Xu Fang clasped her hands to her chest and said thank God. Ji Jianhua slowly turned and left.

In the ward, Zhu Weidong lay quietly beside his wife, holding a handkerchief in his hand and gently wiping the sweat from her forehead.

His hair was soaked with sweat, and he was afraid of catching a cold from the wind, so he bought a towel and wrapped his head.

Hearing someone coming in behind him, he turned around and saw it was Ji Jianhua, then turned back again.

"Ji Ke is fine." Ji Jianhua walked to the bedside. Zhu Weidong did not respond to his words. Ji Jianhua continued, "From childhood, my mother gave all her motherly love to Xiao Ke because Ji Ke was not by her side. Xiao Ling suffered a lot."

"I'll take Xiaoling back with me tomorrow." Zhu Weidong interrupted him.

Thinking that something like this had happened, Xiaoling would not stay and it took her a long time before she responded with a "OK".

At night, Ji Ling developed a fever and the doctor rushed over. However, since she was a pregnant woman, she could not be given an injection, so Zhu Weidong could only wipe her body and give her more water.

Even in a daze, Ji Ling knew that she had a fever. Without Zhu Weidong's persuasion, she drank water in big gulps, for she was afraid that her fever would harm the baby in her belly.

She had few relatives in her two lives, and now she had her own child for the first time. She wanted to give all her love to the child. As a mother, she would also protect the child with her life and would not let the child live the same life as she did.

Zhu Weidong watched his wife holding the cup and drinking water in big gulps in a daze, tears welling up in her eyes. He hugged her in his arms with heartache and comforted her softly.

"And me."

Ji Ling was confused due to the burns and had no idea what Zhu Weidong was saying. She only had one thought in her mind, which was to protect the child.

During this period, Ji Yong and Ji Jianhua both came to see her, but Xu Fang never showed up once.

Seeing his daughter's face red from fever and shedding tears, Ji Yong also hid in the corridor wiping his tears.

Ji Ke woke up in the second half of the night. After waking up, he vomited several times and complained of a headache. After the doctor came to check, he said it was just a mild concussion and he would be fine after some rest.

Xu Fang felt sorry for her daughter and cried all night.

"They're in the corridor. I'll go call them in." Xu Fang thought of what her daughter said during the day about her son not being close to her, and then thought of how her daughter was injured while trying to save her son. She felt angry and got up and went to the corridor.

"Xiao Ke has woken up and is looking for you." Xu Fang swallowed the unpleasant words after her eyes saw the dried blood on her son's head, and turned back to the ward.

The two entered the ward, and Ji Ke's face turned pale. "Brother, have you treated your injuries?"

"It's okay, Xiaoke, thank you for saving my brother." Ji Jianhua forced a smile.

"It's okay. Even if something happens to me, I believe my elder brother will come to save me." Ji Ke looked at the faces of his family members, "Where are my sister and brother-in-law?"

"Your sister has a fever and is in the next ward." Ji Yong didn't mention anything else.

Xu Fang lowered her eyes.

"Sister, you're not scared, are you?"

"It's okay, just take good care of it." Ji Yong comforted his daughter.

Ji Ke nodded and closed his eyes obediently, "Mom and Dad, you guys should take a rest too. I'll be fine in two days."

Looking at her well-behaved and sensible daughter, Xu Fang sniffed and turned back to look at her son, "Go and take care of the wound, otherwise your sister will be worried if she sees it."

Otherwise your sister will see and worry.

If Ji Ke saw that he was not worried, would his mother not mention his injury? At this moment, Ji Jianhua suddenly understood Ji Ling's feelings.

Even though I didn't care, I was still disgusted.

He got up and left.

Ji Yong glanced at his wife, then stood up and followed.

In the corridor, Ji Yong comforted his son, "Your mother is in a bad mood, don't mind what she says."

"Just like she was worried about Ji Ke just now, can she say that about Xiao Ling?" Ji Jianhua felt it was boring after saying that, "Dad, I will handle it myself, you go back."

Leaving his father behind, Ji Jianhua left the hospital directly, went home to take a shower, and closed all the gates. At around seven in the morning, he went directly to the Public Security Bureau. He wanted to see why those people did this.

Many people at the Public Security Bureau were on holiday during the Chinese New Year, leaving only a few on duty. However, there were not many cases on hand. After the man was sent by Ji Jianhua, they interrogated him overnight. The man only said that he couldn't stand the furniture shop run by the Ji family, so he took revenge out of anger, but he didn't expect to hurt people.

The Ji family's furniture store is the only one in the county and does very good business. I heard that it has even expanded to the city. Many people are envious and jealous when they mention this.

It is reasonable for some people to do this out of jealousy.

Ji Jianhua didn't accept this. "I think they didn't come for my dad's store, they came for me. My parents and my sister were there at the time. They just pushed and shoved, but didn't hurt anyone. After seeing me, they came straight for me."

When the people from the Public Security Bureau heard about this clue, they immediately interrogated the man again, but he denied it and insisted that he did not know Ji Jianhua. He also said that he saw a man coming and mistook him for Ji Yong, so he took action.

Without evidence, the police are helpless.

Ji Jianhua was unwilling to give up, and seeing that it was getting late, he had no choice but to carry his things and go to the doctor first.

Ji Ling's fever had subsided, but she looked listless and her lips were cracked.

She was drinking porridge when Ji Jianhua came in with a bag. He put the bag on another empty bed and said, "I've packed your things for both of you. If there's anything left, I'll mail it to us later."

"Brother, why haven't you applied medicine on the wound on your head?" Ji Ling raised her eyes and noticed this first.
