At the hospital.
Wei Yu was sent to the emergency room. As a ‘family member’, Pei Jiao had to wait outside. While she waited, she was anxious and frustrated. She kept pacing back and forth, occasionally looking back to see if the emergency room door was open.
There was blood all over the floor. Would he die from blood loss?
Wei Yu’s body was so good. He should be able to withstand it, right?
How did those security officers hit him? Did Wei Yu lie on the ground and let them hit him without fighting back?
What if Wei Yu was going to die?
Pei Jiao had countless questions in her mind. In the end, this last question made her heart skip a beat. Then, she immediately abandoned this unrealistic thought. How could this scourge die! He was so lucky!
“Family, please move!” the paramedic said from behind.
Pei Jiao turned around and saw that Wei Yu had been pushed out by the medical staff, but he was still unconscious. Overwhelmed with worry, not only did she not move aside, but she stepped forward and asked, “He’s not dead, is he?”
This tone, coupled with Pei Jiao’s current expression, made the medical staff wonder if this family member in front of them wanted to see the injured die and be pushed out.
“The injured patient is out of danger. Please make way. We want to push him to a normal ward,” the medical staff said to Pei Jiao.
Pei Jiao muttered to herself as she made way, “It’s good that he’s not dead!”
She knew it. He had only been beaten up and seen a little blood. It was not life-threatening. Besides, her father and brother’s instructions were only to teach Wei Yu a lesson. How could they really kill him?
Since Wei Yu was fine now, then shouldn’t she go back? Although he was still unconscious, it seemed that he was fine. The Wei family would rush over to take care of him if they knew. It was not appropriate for her to stay here.
Besides, her parents would probably be angry if she left as Wei Yu’s family in front of so many security officers tonight, so she had to go back quickly.
Pei Jiao walked over and pressed the elevator button. While waiting for the elevator to rise, Pei Jiao felt especially conflicted. She hesitated about whether to take a look at Wei Yu or leave. She was already standing at the elevator door.
At this moment, the medical staff walking over from afar shouted, “Family? Family? Take this form and go to the contributory office downstairs to apply for hospitalization.”
Pei Jiao was stunned for a moment and almost said, “I’m not his family.”
Seeing that the payment list was already in front of her, she swallowed the words and took it. “Okay, 1 understand.”
The medical staff reminded Pei Jiao, “The patient is in Ward 47.”
Pei Jiao nodded. “Thank you.”
Seeing that the ‘family member’ in front of him was in a ‘lost’ state, the medical staff comforted her. “He’s fine. He just suffered a serious injury and has to rest well for the next period of time. Do you know the exact situation of the people who beat him? If there’s anything difficult to resolve, I suggest you call the police to deal with it.”
The medical staff did not know the exact situation. In their eyes, such a matter indeed had to be reported to the police, so they kindly reminded Pei
Pei Jiao shook her head. “There’s no need to call the police to deal with it. Some private disputes will be resolved.”
The paramedic indicated that he understood. As he turned away, she said, “You can visit him in the ward after you pay the fee.”
Pei Jiao replied, “Okay.”
After the medical staff left, Pei Jiao gritted her teeth and resigned herself to fate. She went downstairs to pay for the hospitalization.
There were not as many people in the hospital at night as during the day. There was no need to queue for the payment downstairs. After Pei Jiao paid the fee, she took the invoice upstairs to Wei Yu’s ward.
She tried to be as quiet as possible as she pushed through the door. When she arrived at the bed, Pei Jiao looked at the sleeping Wei Yu and slowly frowned.
There was too much blood. Wei Yu’s face was still very pale. There was gauze on his forehead and left cheekbone. The corner of his mouth was still torn and blood seeped out. Compared to his usual high-spirited appearance, he looked very pitiful. If he opened his eyes, he would probably be in a sorry state.
She had never seen such a fragile side of Wei Yu. At a time like this, it seemed that anyone could bully him. Even if she slapped him now, he could only accept it. He might not wake up. At the thought of this, Pei Jiao could not help but smile. Then, she leaned over and waved her hand at the sleeping Wei Yu.
“l really want to slap you!” She wrinkled the tip of her nose and retracted her hand. “If you had told me nicely about breaking off the betrothal back then, how could there be such nonsense now? As long as you told me nicely, how could I not agree? Now, you’re being tormented and injured. You deserve it..
Retribution, do you know? Hmph!”
