Fang Yuechuan drove very fast all the way. Fortunately, the pet hospital was not far away and there were not many red lights in between.
After they sent the square piece to the pet hospital, the doctor quickly arranged the surgery.
Watching Fang Pian being pushed in, Shi Yuan's heart was in her throat, fearing that something might happen to Fang Pian, and there would never be a moment of relaxation.
Today's temperature itself was not that high, but Shi Yuan was so nervous that she was sweating all over her body, and her limbs were trembling. She felt that she would not be able to stand in the next second.
After Fang Yuechuan and Zhang Jian called the police and communicated about calling the police to catch the gangster, he turned around and found Shi Yuan's eyes were red but his face was pale, and he couldn't help but worry.
He walked forward and asked in a gentle voice, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere in your body?"
Shi Yuan's mood was only superficially stable. As soon as Fang Yuechuan spoke to her, she immediately lost control.
Shi Yuan actually didn't want to cry, but her tears couldn't be controlled.
She raised her eyes and looked at Fang Yuechuan, her eyes seemed dull and her voice was light: "Fang Yuechuan, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of Fang Pian."
Shi Yuan rarely cried, let alone being like this, Fang Yuechuan's heart ached.
He hugged Shi Yuan into his arms, stroked Shi Yuan's back, and said in a very soft voice: "It's okay, Fang Pian will be fine."
Shi Yuan was buried in Fang Yuechuan's arms and finally cried wildly.
Fang Yuechuan knew that she was feeling uncomfortable, but he didn't stop her. He just let her cry loudly in his arms. It was better to let it out than to hold it in.

Fang Pian was stabbed five times in total. The wounds were deep and shallow, and a lot of blood flowed. Fortunately, none of them hit his vitals.
After several hours of surgery, the doctor said Fang Pian was out of danger.
Shi Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, like a spring that had been over-stretched and lost its original vitality.
It was already very late now. Yuan's condition had not been good when Fang Yuechuan saw her, so he said, "Fang Pian is fine. The doctor will take good care of him. I'll take you home to rest."
Shi Yuan shook his head, his eyes a little unfocused, but his tone was stubborn and firm: "I won't leave, I want to stay here."
Fang Yuechuan frowned and said worriedly: "You haven't eaten anything, your stomach will feel uncomfortable after a while."
Shi Yuan raised her eyes to look at Fang Yuechuan, tears streaming down her eyes as she felt depressed. She asked in a broken voice, "Why don't you blame me? Why do you still care about me?"
Fang Yuechuan stretched out his arms and held Shi Yuan tightly in his arms, comforting softly: "Shi Yuan, don't blame yourself, this is not your fault."
People are very strange. They listen to others' abuse with a blank expression, but will accept comfort with tears streaming down their face.

Fang Yuechuan took Shi Yuan back to Qingliu Bay, found her own clothes for Shi Yuan, and asked her to take a bath and change out of the blood-stained clothes.
Shi Yuan calmed down a lot after crying, but she also became silent a lot. She remained silent most of the time, not knowing what she was thinking.
While Yuan was taking a bath, Fang Yuechuan went to the kitchen to cook two bowls of noodles. During this period, Zhang Jian called and said that the gangster had been caught.
This man is a habitual criminal. He has many criminal records due to serial theft. He just came out not long ago.
Fang Yuechuan's expression was indifferent, his eyes were dark and gloomy, and he said to Zhang Jian in a cold voice: "I don't want to see him come out alive again."
Zhang Jian understood the idea and responded: "Yes."
When Shi Yuan came out, Fang Yuechuan put the noodles on the table and said, "Let's eat. It's too late today. Let's eat a little first."
Shi Yuan didn't respond and ate slowly with chopsticks.
She was in an abnormal mood, and Fang Yuechuan looked on, completely uneasy.
Shi Yuan slowly ate less than a third of a bowl of noodles. Fang Yuechuan coaxed her into eating less than half of the bowl. She felt that she had reached her limit.
What happened today was like a dream, but it was so long, Shi Yuan seemed to have been exhausted.
Fang Yuechuan knew that she needed a good rest, so after eating, he took Shi Yuan back to the bedroom to sleep.
He held Shi Yuan in his arms and said, "Go to sleep, and we'll go see the diamonds tomorrow."
Shi Yuan nodded, leaned into Fang Yuechuan's arms in a curled up position, and slowly fell asleep.
…
Shi Yuan slept deeply, but her sleep was not stable at all. She had been having nightmares and was highly concentrated, making her even more tired than when she was awake.
After graduating from high school, Shi Yuan had not had this dream for a long, long time.
In her sleep, she seemed to have returned to that night that she never wanted to remember in her life.
There are many irritating noises coming from the old old house, the sound of things breaking, the curses of drunken men, and the desperate cries of women and the barking of spades.
Shi Yuan stood at the door of the room, called Spades to his side, and watched calmly as his mother argued with his father, who was drunk again.
Yang Qiyan shed tears and asked heartbreakingly: "Didn't you say you won't drink anymore, and you won't gamble anymore!"
Shi Junmin's face turned red after drinking, and he pushed Yang Qiyan down with all his strength. He couldn't speak fluently: "You don't care about me."
"Mom." Shi Yuan hurriedly stepped forward to help Yang Qiyan.
Spades barked at Shi Junmin: "Woof! Woof!"
Shi Junmin felt noisy, frowned and cursed: "What do you call this damn dog? Then you ask me to sell you to a dog meat shop."
Yang Qiyan wiped away her tears and said to Shi Yuan, "You and Spai Tao go back to the room and sleep, and be obedient."
Shi Yuan was pushed back to the bedroom by Yang Qiyan, but the quarrel outside never ended.
She sat on the edge of the bed holding spades, waiting for Junmin to take the money and leave as usual, or go back to the room and fall asleep, so it was quiet.
But today's quarrel was more intense than before, and Shi Yuan waited for a long time but didn't end.
Just when she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard a muffled sound, and the living room was silent for a few seconds. Junmin's panicked voice came out: "Wife!"
Shi Yuan's heart skipped a beat and she hurried to the living room, where she saw Yang Qiyan lying on the table, a lot of blood bleeding from the back of her head, and she was frozen in place.
Spades may have smelled the smell of blood, so he screamed at Shi Junmin even harder, and even the neighbors' scoldings could be heard outside.
"It's so late at night, and I won't let anyone sleep!"
Shi Junmin was afraid that Spade's bark would attract others, so he said ferociously: "Damn dog, I told you to stop barking!"
Shi Yuan recovered from the shock and hurriedly said to Shi Junmin: "Hurry up and call 120 to call the doctor."
Shi Junmin hesitated: "She won't die, right?"
Shi Yuan couldn't believe she would hear such words from Shi Junmin, but she should have known better than to rely on this useless man.
She took out her mobile phone from Yang Qiyan's pocket and wanted to call the hospital.
During this period, Shi Junmin kept telling her, "Your mother accidentally fell down and hit the table. Did you hear that?"
Shi Yuan held the mobile phone and looked at the useless man in front of her with red eyes. She really hated him to the extreme and said viciously: "Why don't you die outside!"
Shi Junmin became angry and yelled: "You little hooves, I have worked so hard to raise you so big, but you actually expect me to die!"
He said that he wanted to step forward and hit Shi Yuan, but Spai Tao protected Shi Yuan, shouting and not letting him get close.
The neighbor outside began to yell and curse again: "If you don't keep quiet, I will call the police! You have no sense of ethics at all!"
Shi Junmin was now surrounded by soldiers. When he heard that he was going to call the police, he immediately panicked and picked up the fruit knife on the table and stabbed the spade in front of Shi Yuan, causing blood to flow out instantly.
Seeing this scene, Shi Yuan felt that the sky was about to collapse, and shouted loudly: "Spade!"
The voices of the neighbors outside were getting louder and louder, as if they were coming over.
Shi Junmin finally came to his senses, looked at the mess on the ground, dropped his knife and ran away in embarrassment.
When the neighbors arrived, they were stunned when they saw the scene in the house.
In the messy living room, a thin little girl sat in a pool of blood, hugging her mother who was still uncertain about her life or death. She collapsed and cried while looking at the dying black dog beside her.
