Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 254
Ji Linfeng, accompanied by his son Ji Xiaolei, often sought out Han Jingheng and Han Chunxue, but they gave the same response. Qiu Chunli’s actions were inexcusable, and it was her own doing. They couldn’t intervene, nor did they want to.
After struggling for a while, Ji Linfeng finally calmed down.
His daughter had just been transferred from critical care to a general ward and couldn’t be left alone. No one was willing to lend a hand, and his own big brother came to ask him to give up on his daughter.
But since the surgery was done, how could he give up on his daughter at this time? With no one to help, he could only grit his teeth and bear it himself. Now he realized what the Han Family really meant to them.
Due to Director Zhang’s imprisonment, the medical staff at the hospital did not show a friendly face to the Ji Family. So Ji Linfeng felt as if days dragged on like years at the hospital. Fortunately, most of the medical staff upheld professional ethics. Although their attitude wasn’t good, they didn’t slack off in treating Ji Xiaowen.
But Ji Xiaowen, who had just been transferred from critical care to a general ward, knew nothing of this because no one dared to discuss it in front of her; should something happen to her in the hospital, it would lead to another lawsuit.
Ji Xiaowen didn’t see her mom: "Dad, where’s Mom?"
Upon hearing his daughter’s question, Ji Linfeng mustered his spirits and said, "Your mom is on a business trip and will be back in a few days. She was the one taking care of you all along; now it’s my turn."
But Ji Xiaowen wasn’t Ji Xiaolei; she was keenly perceptive. She just had such a major surgery; how could her mom be on a business trip now? "Dad, are you hiding something from me?"
Fearing to upset his daughter, Ji Linfeng dared not tell her the truth. "What could I possibly hide from you? You’ll see your mom when she comes back in a few days."
Unrelenting, Ji Xiaowen asked, "Why hasn’t Xiaolei come today either?"
Ji Linfeng wiped his daughter’s face, "He has classes today, but he’ll definitely come to see you on the weekend."
He knew how smart his daughter was, and wasn’t sure how long this lie would hold, yet he really didn’t dare to tell her what was happening at home, for fear it would affect her postoperative recovery.
But he didn’t expect that just two days later, there would be trouble.
Ji Xiaowen had just finished eating, and when Ji Linfeng went out with the lunchbox to clean it, someone rushed in with their eyes fixed on Ji Xiaowen. "You are Ji Xiaowen, Qiu Chunli’s daughter?"
Ji Xiaowen was puzzled, wondering why this person said her mom’s surname was Qiu. Just as she was about to ask, the visitor slapped her across the face. "You’re all troublemakers."
As soon as Ji Linfeng came in and saw this, he dropped the lunchbox and rushed over. "Who are you, and why are you hitting my daughter?"
Li Yuzhi was filled with anger. "Because she deserves it. If it weren’t for this sick girl, Qiu Chunli would never have done such insane things. My husband wouldn’t have been implicated either. You’ve harmed not only my husband but also my son—hitting her is lenient."
Ji Xiaowen couldn’t understand what this woman was saying and grabbed Ji Linfeng’s sleeve. "Dad, what does she mean?"
Fearing his daughter couldn’t bear to hear, Ji Linfeng comforted her, "It’s alright, I’ll explain it later."
Then he pushed the woman, saying, "If there’s anything, let’s discuss it outside. This is a ward; we can’t disturb others’ rest."
Li Yuzhi wouldn’t have any of it. "I want to say it here. Why is your daughter the only one that matters? Because of Qiu Chunli’s selfishness, my son became disabled. You’re all murderers."
For a moment, chaos erupted in the ward. Thinking of her youngest son becoming disabled, Li Yuzhi cried heartbrokenly.
Qiu Shaocheng failed to return on the agreed date. Those people didn’t get their money and, in anger, directly crippled Qiu Shaocheng’s younger son, Qiu Weigang.
Li Yuzhi hadn’t waited for her husband to return, but instead received news that Qiu Shaocheng had been sentenced to prison.
Accompanied by her eldest son, they hurried to the Capital. After hearing what happened upon meeting Qiu Shaocheng, they directly pointed the finger at Qiu Chunli. Unfortunately, they couldn’t find her, so they had to turn to this culprit.
If it weren’t for the kidney transplant for this little jinx, none of this would have happened, and her husband wouldn’t be in prison.
