"You've been saying this the whole way, my ears are practically calloused. I know my own body very well. Right now I'm just happy, I don't feel uncomfortable at all. So stop dawdling and hurry up and go."
"Hey, Uncle and Auntie, what brings you back?"
The two were walking forward without stopping. Wang Zhande recognized the two people in front of him and followed them quickly. When he saw that it was indeed Xie Wenyuan and Huang Meiling, he was overjoyed.
Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Huang Meiling breathed a sigh of relief: "Xiao Wang, you've come at the right time. You take your Uncle Xie to the hospital first, and I'll go find the children. Do you know which courtyard my daughter-in-law lives in?"
Wang Zhande beamed with joy: "Auntie, you don't need to trouble yourself. My sister-in-law is taking care of the leader at the hospital right now, and both children are in the ward too. She just got them into kindergarten, saying that she wants them to spend more time with the leader while they're still not in school."
It's already this late, Shu Ying must have been gone for quite a while. If it were any later, she would have taken the child and headed back.
A look of joy flashed across Huang Meiling's face: "Really? Yingying is taking care of Zhiyan in the hospital?"
Wang Zhande nodded firmly: "Of course. The commander was seriously injured at the time. When he was sent to the hospital, my sister-in-law rushed over. She has been taking care of him in the hospital for the past few days, basically running back and forth between the two places. At that time, the doctor said that the commander might not wake up, but my sister-in-law did not give up."
They were all discouraged when they heard the news, but Shu Ying, as Xie Zhiyan's closest person, always had confidence.
She firmly believed that he would wake up.
Huang Meiling held Xie Wenyuan's hand tightly: "That's great. I was worried that the two children would have a rift because they hadn't seen each other for so long. Yingying is not good at expressing herself and keeps many things to herself. I was worried that there might be a misunderstanding between them. But now it's all good. My worries were obviously unnecessary."
In fact, Huang Meiling was very satisfied with Xie Zhiyan's work. Her son had been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child, but it was precisely because of this that he was mature beyond his years.
In his love life, he was as straightforward as a block of wood, so Huang Meiling understood why Shu Ying didn't like Xie Zhiyan at first.
After all, putting herself in her shoes, even she wouldn't want to marry a rigid, old-fashioned son.
Xie Wenyuan laughed so hard that you could barely see his eyes, only his teeth: "After all, they are a couple. It takes a hundred years of cultivation to share a boat ride and a thousand years to share a pillow. Yingying is a woman who values relationships and loyalty. Now that they have a child, this family should live together as a whole."
Wang Zhande smiled sheepishly: "That's right. So when the doctor told my sister-in-law to be prepared that the leader might not wake up, she didn't take it to heart. Every day she cleaned the leader's wounds, fed him medicine, and even gave him acupuncture. Dr. Liu said that if it weren't for my sister-in-law's acupuncture, the leader wouldn't have woken up so quickly."
Xie Wenyuan nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that these two children get along quite well. I always felt that the marriage certificate made them both uncomfortable, but it seems that the elders in the family had foresight. I think these two children are very suitable."
Huang Meiling glanced at him, then continued walking forward without stopping, her mouth never stopping.
"That's what they say, but your son is just a heartless stone. It'll just be tough on Yingying."
Shu Ying was a girl who was pampered by the Shu family from childhood. If it weren't for that marriage certificate, she could have had better options.
But the past is the past, and no one wants to bring it up anymore. As long as they live their lives well from now on, they have no other wishes.
Wang Zhande led the two of them to the right place. He then recalled the scene Xie Zhiyan and Shu Ying had deliberately put on when he saw Xie Wanying that day. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he held back.
This is ultimately Xie Zhiyan's family matter, and he should have the final say on what decision to make.
It is said that family scandals should not be aired in public. Xie Zhiyan did not treat them as outsiders, but they themselves could not be without discretion.
Moreover, Xie Wanying is, after all, their biological daughter. No matter what choice they make, it will only hurt the two senior researchers. There's no need for him to cause them trouble beforehand.
"Auntie, don't worry. The commander is quite obedient in the hospital. He does whatever his sister-in-law asks him to do. We've worked together for so many years and have never seen this side of him before."
Huang Meiling's smile almost covered her eyes: "Really? That's great! That's how a man should be. Only by listening to his wife will his luck get better and better. Yingying is a well-educated high school student. She has seen more of the world than us and knows more. With her by our side giving us guidance all the time, your uncle and I can feel more at ease."
She still felt guilty towards her two children, but now that she saw her son and daughter had both found their own happiness, a weight had finally been lifted from her heart.
"When I see Zhiyan later, I'll have to give him a good lesson in morality. Yingying has been working so hard raising the child all by herself, and she's also been worrying about his illness. Once he recovers, I'll make sure to treat Yingying better."
They had missed so much time with Shuying and the children before, and now that they had the chance, they wanted to make up for all the time they had missed.
Xie Wenyuan was carrying the things they had bought on the way here. Wang Zhande skillfully led the two of them into the hospital and onto the inpatient department.
At this moment, Shu Ying was still performing acupuncture on Xie Zhiyan.
She glanced at the clock hanging in the ward: "It's almost time, let me remove the needle for you."
Ye Zhanying sat on the sofa, trembling with fear. She had been on the verge of a breakdown when she watched Shu Ying insert the needles one by one.
My leg is riddled with holes, how could it not hurt?
Xie Zhiyan, on the other hand, was quite a man; he didn't utter a single word for so long.
Qi Zecheng's face contorted with rage, wishing he could stay as far away from Shu Ying as possible.
Shu Ying gently twisted the long needle, and Xie Zhiyan felt a tingling, numbing, and distending pain on his acupoints. Although it was slightly uncomfortable, it was still within a tolerable range.
Qi Zecheng felt a jolt in his heart as he looked at each of the needles that had been pulled out, as if they were being ripped from his own flesh.
Ye Zhanying moved to the side and lowered her voice: "You mean, if such a long needle goes straight into a person's flesh, you really don't feel anything at all?"
Qi Zecheng dared not look again, and could only pretend to be busy looking around.
"I've never experienced it, how would I know about such things? You should ask the guy lying in bed, he seems to be enjoying it quite a bit."
