Bai Xiaoyue's heart skipped a beat. Had Yan Ci run into trouble and been delayed in returning?
Since Mingyue said that Wang Weiguo would be back tonight.
She ate dinner with Grandma Xie and then waited quietly in the courtyard.
When Wang Weiguo returned, he was startled by Bai Xiaoyue standing in the yard.
He hurriedly asked, "Xiaoyue, why did you come back by yourself?"
Bai Xiaoyue stared intently at Wang Weiguo and asked, "Brother-in-law, where is Yan Ci?"
Wang Weiguo gave an awkward smile: "Yan Ci went out in the car."
Bai Xiaoyue's eyes immediately turned red:
"Brother-in-law, has something happened to Yan Ci?"
Wang Weiguo quickly said, "Xiaoyue, don't cry, Yan Ci is alright."
Bai Xiaoyue asked, "Where is he? Is there some trouble at the company that makes it inconvenient for him to show his face?"
Wang Weiguo said helplessly, "What are you thinking? We're doing legitimate business. What could possibly happen to the company?"
Bai Xiaoyue: "Brother-in-law, if you don't tell us where Yan Ci is today, we'll just stay here."
Mingyue will be back soon; I've asked her to keep an eye on you.
Wang Weiguo sighed before saying, "Xiaoyue, I'm really scared of you. Yan Ci is in the hospital."
Bai Xiaoyue broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this and hurriedly asked, "Is Yan Ci seriously injured?"
Wang Weiguo: "Xiaoyue, don't worry, Yan Ci is fine now. He's planning to pick you up in Beijing tomorrow."
Bai Xiaoyue hurriedly said, "Brother-in-law, take me to the hospital right now."
Wang Weiguo had no choice but to take Bai Xiaoyue to the hospital on his bicycle.
Bai Xiaoyue entered the ward and saw that Yan Ci was sleeping.
She told Wang Weiguo to go back and rest, and that she would stay and take care of Yan Ci tonight.
She knew that Yan Ci wouldn't have broken his promise unless something very serious had happened.
Not wanting to disturb Yan Ci's rest, she sat quietly and waited for him to wake up.
Yan Ci had just opened his eyes when he saw his wife's face and thought he was dreaming.
His voice was somewhat uncertain: "Wife?"
Upon hearing Yan Ci's voice, Bai Xiaoyue's tears streamed down her face: "A-Ci, are you injured?"
Yan Ci was about to get up when Bai Xiaoyue quickly supported his shoulder: "Don't move yet, where are you hurt?"
"Honey, I'm fine. I just ran into a little trouble on the way. I can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow."
Bai Xiaoyue didn't believe it. She gently lifted Yan Ci's blanket and untied his clothes, only to see that his abdomen was wrapped with gauze.
She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, gently covered herself with the blanket, and asked softly, "Aci, does it hurt a lot?"
Yan Ci quickly reassured her, "Wife, I'm fine now."
She looks fine now, but Bai Xiaoyue is heartbroken, not knowing how dangerous it was back then.
I should have firmly refused to let Yan Ci open this lousy transportation company.
Not wanting Yan Ci to worry, she asked softly, "A-Ci, would you like something to eat?"
Yan Ci: "I've already eaten. Wei Guo bought it. When did you get back?"
Bai Xiaoyue: "I just got back today and didn't see you, so I asked my brother-in-law, and he brought me here."
Yan Ci: "Wife, I'm sorry, I couldn't pick you up on time."
Bai Xiaoyue: "Aci, as long as you're okay, that's all that matters."
Yan Ci: "You've been on the train for several days, you must be tired. Go back and rest! I'm fine."
Bai Xiaoyue: "I'll stay here with you, you can go to sleep."
Yan Ci knew his wife was stubborn, so he let her get into bed and lie next to him.
Bai Xiaoyue was afraid of touching Yan Ci's wound and refused.
Yan Ci insisted on sleeping in his wife's arms, so Bai Xiaoyue got into bed and let him lean against her.
Only when I'm next to him and can hear his breathing do I feel at peace.
The next day, Bai Xiaoyue learned that they had injured three people in total.
Song Dongwei and Feng Xiaobei are also in the hospital. Their injuries are less severe than Yan Ci's.
Mr. Song didn't go back to the hospital, so Mrs. Song always thought he hadn't returned yet.
Yan Ci wanted to be discharged from the hospital, but Bai Xiaoyue disagreed and told him to stay in the hospital for a few more days.
When the doctor announced that Yan Ci could be discharged from the hospital, Yan Ci immediately wanted to go home, saying that staying in the hospital was too uncomfortable.
Bai Xiaoyue repeatedly asked the doctor if Yan Ci's injury would have any long-term effects and what precautions to take in the future.
The doctor said there would be no aftereffects, and I just need to rest at home. I shouldn't do any strenuous exercise until the wound has fully healed.
Bai Xiaoyue was relieved to go home after hearing from the doctor that there would be no aftereffects.
After arriving home, she asked Yan Ci to sit on the bed and rest.
She then asked, "Aci, did you encounter some ruthless bandits this time?"
Three people were injured. Didn't Sister Song say you brought several people with you?
Yan Ci said that the journey had been peaceful, and they had already entered the city when they encountered a group of desperate criminals.
These people not only wanted to steal things, but also wanted to kill people.
The group that Yan and others left with were all soldiers. The desperate men had run into a tough opponent, and both sides were injured.
Yan Ci felt that these people were a menace, so he and his brothers arrested them all in one fell swoop and took them to the police station.
Now is the perfect time for a crackdown; the government will punish them severely. Those who have committed so many evil deeds will probably lose their lives.
Yan Ci spoke casually, but Bai Xiaoyue was terrified. One wrong move and she might not make it back alive!
She advised, "Aci, why don't we just give up running the transportation company?"
Yan Ci held her hand and said:
"Honey, the government is cleaning up the mess, and everything will be peaceful from now on."
Bai Xiaoyue: "Ah Ci, I'm too old to be scared."
Yan Ci: "Wife, don't be afraid. I promise this will never happen again."
Bai Xiaoyue didn't want to argue with him, fearing it would worsen his injuries.
Yan Ci then began a life of being waited on hand and foot.
Bai Xiaoyue took care of him as if he were a child who had no ability to move.
Yan Ci also enjoyed this kind of life very much, because both of them were quite busy and rarely had such leisure time.
Bai Xiaoyue felt there was something she hadn't done, but she couldn't quite remember what it was.
It wasn't until she saw Wang Caixia again that she finally remembered the traitor in the company.
It was all because Yan Ci was injured that she forgot about it in her anxiety.
She stormed back to the courtyard and confronted Yan Ci:
"Aci, who hired that young woman in the office?"
Yan Ci was completely bewildered: "Where did this young girl come from?"
Bai Xiaoyue then told Yan Ci what had happened the day she returned.
Yan Ci frowned: "In the more than six months since you left, I've either been looking for you in the capital or traveling with you in a carriage. You'll have to ask Wei Guo about this."
Bai Xiaoyue thought for a moment and said, "Aci, the company has a lot of cars now, let's find two more people to help!"
It's easier for us to have someone else do the detailed work.
From now on, you don't need to go out and accompany the vehicles anymore; you can stay at the company!
Yan Ci frowned: "Wife, I don't like staying in the office."
Bai Xiaoyue coaxed, "Aci, I'll leave the clothing store to Mingyue and stay with you, okay?"
Yan Ci asked incredulously, "Wife, are you serious? You're coming to stay with me?"
Bai Xiaoyue nodded. It was a decision she made after careful consideration; hiring someone for the clothing store would suffice.
I should keep a close eye on Yan Ci; he's the most important person.
