Chapter Sixty-Five: Ji Ke is Lost
Ji Yong looked at his daughter with expectation in his eyes. At this time, he would rather his daughter made a fuss, as usual, but what he got was silence, making it impossible for him to say the next words.
Ji Jianhua stood up and said, "Dad, stop talking. Let Xiaoling be discharged from the hospital. I asked the doctor to come over the next day to change the dressing for the wound. Let's find a place to stay in a hotel in the city first."
"Xiao Ling, is this okay?" Ji Jianhua understood his sister's mood, and Ji Ling accepted the advice he gave.
Ji Yong went to go through the discharge procedures and called the Zheng family to remind them not to send food over, while Ji Jianhua accompanied Ji Ling.
"It's August now. Your notice says that the report will be reported on September 5th. You have to hold on for a while." Ji Jianhua thought a lot one day and one night. "Mom, just follow your own ideas. Don't care about what others think."
Look. Over the years, some things have been deeply ingrained in my mother’s heart that cannot be changed, and I am the only one who has always given in and felt wronged.”
"If you don't want to see Mom, I'll go out in a while and persuade her to go back." Ji Jianhua stood up, "Actually, what should I say if I meet you? If Mom apologizes to you, can everything that happened really not happen?"
Ji Jianhua himself felt that this was quite boring. As soon as he turned around, the ward door was pushed open, and Xu Fang stood at the door with a pale face.
"Jianhua, it's bad, Xiaoke is missing."
Ji Jianhua's face sank, "Mom, she is not a child."
"Ji Jianhua, do you want to see something happen to Xiao Ke?" Xu Fang glared at his son. After his eyes touched his daughter on the hospital bed, his expression paused and his voice lowered, "Come out for a moment."
She looked away and walked away.
Ji Jianhua's blood froze all over his body and he didn't even have the courage to look back at his sister in the hospital bed.
"Brother, go quickly." Ji Ling really didn't care, "Look at me, don't let Ji Ke get into trouble again."
Ji Jianhua didn't leave, but sat down and said, "If I don't go, what could happen to her? She's not a child."
Ji Ling smiled bitterly, "Brother, I'm not a child either."
"Xiaoling, aren't you angry?"
"I don't care."
"Yeah, if you don't care, you won't be angry." Ji Jianhua seemed to understand at this moment, but he still couldn't turn the corner, "My mother didn't even care about you when she came in just now. She couldn't help but feel sorry for you, but she really didn't feel sorry for you.
?"
If his sister doesn't feel wronged, he feels wronged for her.
When Ji Ling got up, Ji Jianhua looked at her and hurriedly supported her. She put on her shoes and straightened her wrinkled clothes without answering Ji Jianhua's words.
Some things don't need to be explained. Everyone knows in their hearts that Xu Fang may feel distressed, but so what? The moment she directed her anger at Ji Ling, her inner thoughts were exposed.
In her heart, the most important things are always her son and little daughter. As for Ji Ling, her daughter...
"Brother, let's go."
"Wait a minute, Dad."
Ji Ling smiled and said, "Go to Grandma Zhu's place to say hello first, and then come back."
When they found Mrs. Zhu's ward, she was already asleep. Ji Ling asked Zhu Weidong, "Did the doctor say when Mrs. Zhu will be discharged from the hospital?"
"Seven days later."
"Then these days..."
"You don't have to come over." Zhu Weidong said, "It may be busy here these days. You are injured, and my grandma doesn't trust you to go back and forth."
Ji Ling was not polite and nodded in agreement.
Walking back with his eldest brother, Ji Jianhua told the story about the Zhu family's refusal to accept the money, "I didn't accept the five hundred yuan, so I pushed it back and said that there would be people coming to the house in the next few days, and there would be a lot of people, so I asked dad not to think too much about it.
You don’t have to go there all the time.”
After all, it was because Ji Ling was injured and Ji's family members would be embarrassed when they came to visit.
Ji Ling understood this, and when the two returned to the ward, Ji Yong was actually there.
Ji Ling's eyes flashed with surprise, and she reminded, "Didn't my mother look for you just now?"
"I asked her to go to your grandpa's house." Ji Yong was obviously upset, but he kept it down and did not bring his anger to his eldest daughter, "Let's go, there is a hotel near the hospital, go and check in first."
As for Ji Ke's matter, Ji Yong didn't mention a word.
It was already dark outside. The father and daughter went through the discharge procedures and went to a nearby hotel.
When Xu Fang arrived at her parents' house, she didn't see Ji Ke. She sat in the living room and started crying.
Xu's father came from the study and happened to hear his wife asking what happened to his daughter. When he heard his daughter finish telling the story intermittently, his face became tense.
"Xiaoling is still in the hospital?"
Xu Fang nodded.
Xu's mother understood her husband's temper and immediately slapped her daughter, not hard, "Then why don't you stay with your child in the hospital? What could happen to Ji? It's just with a few friends."
"Mom, Xiaoling doesn't want to see me, what can I do? I stood outside the ward for a long time, and she hates me now." Xu Fang also felt uncomfortable.
"Isn't it right for the child to hate you?" Xu's father took the clothes and strode out.
Xu's mother got up and chased after seeing it.
Xu Fang was left alone at home.
In a noodle shop in the city, Chen Jingming looked at Ji Ke and said, "It's getting late. Don't let your family worry. Go back quickly."
"My mother and I came to the city by car. If my mother was really worried about me, she would have come looking for me a long time ago." Ji Ke bit his lip in grievance, "Now my sister is injured and everyone is in the hospital."
"Is she seriously injured?" Chen Jingming lowered his eyes to cover his thoughts.
"I heard that I was stabbed several times. I didn't dare to go there because I was afraid that my sister would be even more angry when she saw me. Now my family must blame me."
"No, she went out on her own at night and it has nothing to do with you." Chen Jingming stood up, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
Ji Ke didn't want to go back, but seeing that Chen Jingming seemed very anxious, he didn't dare to be willful and followed him back to the compound.
After watching Ji Ke enter Xu's unit, Chen Jingming strode back home.
At home, Fu Yan had been waiting for her son. When she saw her son coming back, mother and son exchanged glances. Fu Yan's heart slowly sank and her face became tense.
Over at the hospital, Zhu Weidong kept staring out the window, and Zhu Yaowu came in with food, "Hey, the Ji family was suddenly discharged from the hospital, so I had to go out to buy food."
The meal delivery that was originally promised is gone now.
While the two brothers were eating quietly, Zhu Yaowu noticed that his eldest brother was unusually silent and frowned, "Is there something wrong with the unit?"
"I'm going back to Beixian in the evening. You can keep an eye on the hospital." Zhu Weidong finished half of the bun in his hand in three mouthfuls, put down his chopsticks and walked out.
He left in a hurry, leaving only this sentence, Zhu Yaowu was not heartless, he knew that something big was going on.
Zhu Weidong called the Beixian County Public Security Bureau in the afternoon and was told that the gangster had confessed that he had been ordered by others and had been secretly watching Ji Ling for several days.
Zhu Weidong didn't stand up for Ji Ling, but the other party hurt his grandma, so he couldn't ignore it.
