In the emergency room, Luo Yan cried her heart out...
When the stone came crashing down, Luo Yan caught a glimpse of a dark figure heading straight for Xiao Xiu. She immediately lunged forward, pushed Xiao Xiu aside, and simultaneously turned her head to avoid being hit in the groin.
The stone was sharp, and the child's skin was delicate. When it fell, it cut a bloody gash on the head. Although it required stitches, it did not damage the brain, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
However, she couldn't suffer in vain. She had to let everyone know about her grievances. Even though she had drunk the spiritual spring water and her physical condition was strong, and the stitches didn't hurt much, she still had to cry so that the whole world would know.
The nurse who was stitching up Luo Yan started wiping away tears as Luo Yan cried. She had just become a mother and couldn't bear to see her child suffer.
Outside the emergency room, Hua Li's heart broke as she listened to Luo Yan's cries. She collapsed into Luo Shicheng's arms, almost fainting from crying.
Xiao Xiu clenched her little fists, her eyes were frighteningly red, and she buried her head in Hua Li's arms, desperately trying to control herself so as not to disturb the doctor.
Luo Shicheng never expected that in less than half an hour after leaving home, his child would be so badly injured. Luo Yan's cries were like knives, stabbing his heart again and again.
Holding Hua Li tightly, Luo Shicheng choked up and shed tears in public for the first time.
Wu Cuihua had never heard a child cry like that before. The sound carried through the corridor through the door, and she huddled close to Mo Xian, whispering in fear.
"I didn't mean to, I really didn't mean to hit the child..."
Complaining wouldn't solve anything at this point, so Mo Xian didn't blame Wu Cuihua. He just stared at the door of the emergency room in deep thought.
When Luo Yan was brought out, she was still wearing a blood-stained dress, her head was wrapped in bandages, and she was barely breathing, as if she would die at any moment.
Hua Li only glanced at it before her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Mo Xian helped take Luo Yan to the ward, and Luo Shicheng carried Hua Li into the emergency room for emergency treatment. Chen Yuanshan, who was downstairs paying the bill, heard that Hua Li had been taken into the emergency room again. He sighed, took the bill, and continued running up and down the stairs.
Luo Yan and Hua Li were placed in the same ward. Luo Yan was not given anesthesia for her stitches, so she was conscious.
With one hand held by Xiao Xiu, Luo Yan heard another person being brought in and Luo Shicheng's voice through her closed eyes. When she opened her eyes, she saw Hua Li lying on the hospital bed next to her, with an IV drip in her hand.
"Mom..." Luo Yan was injured after all, and after screaming, her voice was hoarse and weak, which sounded pitiful.
Luo Shicheng reached out to hug Luo Yan with a heavy heart, but was afraid of accidentally hurting her, so he squatted down at a loss to look Luo Yan in the eye.
Luo Yan noticed that Luo Shicheng's eyes were bloodshot, clearly indicating he had been crying...
She thought Luo Shicheng was heartless, but he actually cried for her; it seems there's still hope.
"Mom is fine. Mom is just too worried about Yan Yan, so she needs to rest for a while."
Listening to Luo Shicheng's clumsy attempts at comforting her, Luo Yan blinked. "Do you think a three-year-old can understand what you're saying, which is so complicated?"
Looking into his daughter's clear, big eyes, Luo Shicheng irritably ruffled his spiky hair.
"Mom is tired and is going to sleep. She will come to play with Yan Yan when she wakes up."
Luo Yan closed her eyes. "Forget it, don't explain anymore. I'll sleep for a while first."
Feeling neglected, Luo Shicheng saw that Luo Yan was asleep and nervously ran to ask the doctor.
The doctor said it was just drowsiness caused by excessive blood loss, and that replenishing blood would help, which put my mind at ease.
Sun Bailing rushed to the hospital and met Mo Xian and his wife. He called Mo Xian aside to find out what was going on.
It turned out that Wu Cuihua discovered she had lost ten yuan. That evening, on her way to pick up Mo Sanshan from school, she overheard the children talking about Luo Yan stealing money. She grabbed one of the children and asked him, only to find out that Luo Yan had stolen ten yuan and been taken to the principal's office.
Back home, Wu Cuihua started cursing and wanted to go find Hua Li, but Mo Sanshan stopped her and told her the truth. Wu Cuihua couldn't bear to hit her son, so she falsely accused Luo Yan of inciting her son to steal money.
After Mo Xian returned home and learned the truth, he also supported returning the money to Hua Li.
When Wu Cuihua heard Hua Li locking the door, she tried to rush out to ask for money, but was stopped by the father and son again.
Chen Yuanshan came to return the money and said that he was worried about the safety of the child with the money, so the principal asked him to help give the money to Luo Shicheng. He just ran into Luo Shicheng, who then asked him to return the money to Wu Cuihua.
Wu Cuihua immediately took the money and put it away. Mo Xian was extremely disappointed and brought up divorce again.
Seeing that the couple was about to fight again, Chen Yuanshan dragged Mo Xian away, and Wu Cuihua, in a fit of anger, grabbed a stone used for building vegetable gardens and threw it into Hua Li's house.
Luo Yan was injured while saving Xiao Xiu, who then went on a rampage, banging on the door. Chen Yuanshan climbed over the wall on a ladder and discovered that Luo Yan had been injured by falling rocks.
Mo Xian raised her hand to wipe her face, feeling utterly exhausted. "I must get a divorce. Please grant my request, Chief."
Sun Bailing patted Mo Xian's strong shoulder with his big hand.
"It's rare to find a couple who've been together since childhood. I advise you to seriously reconsider."
Wu Cuihua secretly peeked out from behind the wall and heard what was happening. She jumped out, crying and screaming.
"I won't get a divorce, I'd rather die than get a divorce. If you dare to divorce me, I'll kill myself."
Mo Xian didn't waste any words, "It's fine if you don't get a divorce, but you'll have to take full responsibility for Luo Yan and Hua Li's expenses."
Asking Wu Cuihua to pay money was like asking her to die; she said, "I have no money."
Mo Xian sneered, "All my salary over the years has gone to my family. If you have no money, where did it go?"
Wu Cuihua couldn't answer, so Mo Xian said, "If you don't give me the money, we'll get a divorce."
During the few days that Luo Yan and Hua Li were hospitalized, Luo Shicheng stayed by their side without leaving for a moment.
Hua Li fainted due to the shock, and was fine after waking up. She rested in the hospital for another day. Seeing that Luo Yan could eat and drink and was able to walk, she started going to work on time.
Luo Shicheng continued to take care of Luo Yan, but he had to leave immediately due to an urgent mission.
After much deliberation, Luo Shicheng called Sun Bailing to explain the situation. Sun Bailing immediately made a decision to have Aunt Shi come to the hospital to take care of Luo Yan, as there was already one nanny at home, which would be enough.
Aunt Shi had visited Luo Yan before and knew the hospital well.
Pushing open the door to Luo Yan's ward, there was no one on the bed. Aunt Shi came out and asked the nurse.
Before leaving, Luo Shicheng instructed the nurses to pay special attention to Luo Yan. The nurses said that it was very strange that Luo Yan was not in the ward, according to Aunt Shi.
“I just went to check on him. He didn’t run around and was very well-behaved.”
As she spoke, the nurse went to check on the patient's room and found that Luo Yan, who had been sitting obediently on the bed reading a comic book, was gone.
...
The thin, frail old woman hurriedly walked out of the hospital carrying a canvas travel bag, got into a pedicab, and urged the driver to hurry up.
The driver, wearing a T-shirt and homespun trousers, pulled his hat down low and pedaled the rickshaw at breakneck speed.
Once outside the city, the tricycle stopped in front of a house in the suburbs, and the old lady got off, carrying her travel bag, and went inside.
Yan Yuan frowned as he saw the old lady take a little girl with her head wrapped in bandages out of her travel bag.
"Does he really think I'm a junk collector, that he'll send me anything he wants?"
The old lady smiled apologetically, "This is a free gift, no money required."
As he spoke, he pointed at the little girl's face and said in a fawning tone.
"Look at this little face, it's obviously going to be a beauty. And I've heard that the injury on his head is in his hair, and his face is perfectly fine, so you can rest assured."
