Fortunately, today's incident happened.
Otherwise, she almost mistook a ghost for a human.
Lu Shishen's face was gloomy, and he frowned unhappily. "Stop pretending. Didn't you push Comrade Chen downstairs?"
Wang Xiuxiu laughed in anger, "So what? What do you want to do? Take her place and teach me a lesson?"
She didn't even bother to defend herself; she hadn't done it.
The only person Lu Shishen was willing to believe was Shen Youyou.
Why should she humiliate herself?
Lu Shishen said coldly, "Wang Xiuxiu, I thought you had changed! I didn't expect you to be so incorrigible!"
He looked regretful and said, "Have you been pretending all this time we've spent together?"
Wang Xiuxiu's eyes flickered slightly.
Her expression was full of self-mockery and bitterness. She smiled and said, "Lu Shishen, it was all an act. When your parents came, you begged me to pretend. You were also pretending, pretending to be a good husband and a good father, weren't you?"
Thinking about how Lu Shishen's thoughtfulness and meticulous care these past few days were all an act, she realized that it was all an act.
Wang Xiuxiu's heart was a desolate wasteland.
It turns out that human nature can be so cruel.
"Then I didn't hurt anyone."
Lu Shishen was furious. He looked at Wang Xiuxiu coldly and said, "I told you, Shen Youyou is just a friend. There's nothing between us."
There is not even the most basic trust between us.
Wang Xiuxiu had no idea how Lu Shishen could have the nerve to say such high-sounding words.
She laughed angrily, "Lu Shishen, you said Xiao Zhao is in the hospital, where is she?"
Lu Shishen twitched his fingers, looked away, and said firmly, "I've already sent people to look for him. The child is playful, but he's sensible and won't go far."
After he finished speaking, he added, "Don't try to change the subject. Once Comrade Shen wakes up, apologize to her before this matter escalates."
Lu Shishen's earnest and profound manner made Wang Xiuxiu feel nauseous.
She leaned over the bed and dry heaved a few times.
But I just got to the emergency room and vomited everything out of my stomach.
I can't vomit anything now.
She lay back on the bed and said sarcastically in a cold voice, "You're supposed to be a soldier, don't you know that everything requires evidence? Even murderers have to go through a three-court trial, and I'm convicting you just by talking?"
"Why don't you just quit being a soldier and become Shen Youyou's bodyguard, or maybe you could study law and see if you can become a lawyer and help her with her cases?"
The more she spoke, the uglier Lu Shishen's expression became.
"Wang Xiuxiu, don't go too far."
Lu Shishen stared at Wang Xiuxiu with a stern face. "Apologize to her, and this matter will be over. Youyou is not the type to hold grudges."
"But if you insist on not apologizing, and things get out of hand, I can't protect you!"
Wang Xiuxiu smiled, the corners of her lips curving upwards.
The dizziness she felt just moments ago has completely vanished now, replaced by anger at Lu Shishen. "Lu Shishen, you're so shameless!"
"You say you protected me? When have you ever protected me? I was the one who fell down the stairs first, and I suffered a severe concussion."
"You ignore your wife and instead run off with someone else. Is this what you call protecting her?"
"What is the truth of this matter? Since you came in, have you asked a single question? Have you listened to a single word I said?"
Wang Xiuxiu became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, a grievance that came from the bottom of her heart and was completely beyond her control.
Lu Shishen frowned impatiently, his attitude distant and his tone cold: "I took Comrade Shen away to protect you. There were so many onlookers at the scene; I was cleaning up your mess!"
"Besides, didn't I already call a doctor and a stretcher for you?"
"If anything had happened to Comrade Shen, do you think you'd still be lying here safely right now?"
Lu Shishen's voice wasn't loud, but it was still very clear in the ward where you could hear a pin drop.
After he finished speaking, he pinched his brow in annoyance.
His expression was even more pained than Wang Xiuxiu, who was suffering from a concussion in her hospital bed.
Wang Xiuxiu closed her eyes.
So this is what it means to play the lute to a cow.
She had only experienced this with her family before, but now she has a new experience.
Wang Xiuxiu raised her hand, wearily rubbed her temples, and said listlessly, "Whatever, I'm too lazy to argue with you."
Xu Ruantang went to find Xiao Zhao; they'll talk again once the child is found.
As for apologizing to Shen Youyou, that's impossible; Lu Shishen shouldn't even think about it.
Seeing her like this, Lu Shishen frowned even more deeply.
Just as he was about to speak, a weak voice came from the next bed: "Shi Shen".
Lu Shishen lifted his foot without stopping and walked towards that direction.
Soon, Wang Xiuxiu heard his voice, which was gentler than ever before: "Awake? Is anything bothering you?"
"Shi Shen, don't make things difficult for Xiu Xiu. Things are already like this, I'm not in pain."
Just by listening to her voice, Wang Xiuxiu knew that Shen Youyou was starting to cry again.
She curled her lips into a slight smile.
Lu Shishen's voice came again: "Would you like some water? Let me help you up?"
"Yes, thank you."
Lu Shishen busied himself with taking care of Shen Youyou, showering her with concern and affection, wishing he could hold her in his arms and cherish her.
After Shen Youyou lay down again, she spoke again: "Shi Shen, go and see Sister Xiuxiu, see if she needs water. She is your wife, so take good care of her."
Lu Shishen snorted coldly, "She's perfectly fine, she even has the energy to argue with me, you don't need to worry about her."
"That won't be the case for long."
Through the curtain, Wang Xiuxiu suddenly spoke up: "Lu Shishen, you've already submitted the divorce papers. Once you're discharged from the hospital, let's go get the marriage certificate."
Her tone was very calm, even a little lazy.
It sounded like they were talking about something trivial, or maybe they were asking about the weather.
The two people on the other side of the curtain were both stunned for a moment.
Soon, Lu Shishen's expression changed from stunned to disgust. With his back to Wang Xiuxiu, he said, "What are you still making a scene for? Haven't you made enough trouble yet?"
Shen Youyou was stunned for a second, but then a smug look flashed in her eyes.
She looked at Lu Shishen, then quickly changed to a pitiful expression, her voice trembling with tears: "Sister Xiuxiu, Brother Lu, please don't be impulsive. Let's sit down and talk things over."
"It was all my fault today. Can I apologize to you on behalf of Brother Lu?"
Shen Youyou cried again, struggling to sit up as tears streamed down her face.
Lu Shishen quickly went to help her up.
Shen Youyou did not refuse, and leaned against him as she walked towards Wang Xiuxiu.
"Sister Xiuxiu, I bow to you."
She stood at the foot of Wang Xiuxiu's bed and suddenly bent down.
Before he could even lift his head, his body swayed twice.
Lu Shishen caught her, saying, "Comrade Chen, please don't say that."
Lu Shishen's voice was deep, "Wang Xiuxiu and I were going to get a divorce anyway. We can't live without you."
"Besides, I have a completely innocent relationship with you. She's trying to use the divorce to threaten us."
Lu Shishen wanted to help Shen Youyou back, but she refused and struggled in his arms.
Having no other choice, he used all his strength to pick up Shen Youyou and carry her back to the bed next door.
