Cuicui tried hard to control her expression, and looked down at the book at hand as calmly as possible, without looking into Chen Feng's eyes, but her body hidden under the quilt began to tremble slightly.
Every minute and every second spent alone with Chen Feng was so painful. Just when Cuicui was about to freeze, Li Mei and the others finally came back.
In front of them, the strange feeling in Chen Feng's body completely disappeared. He politely said goodbye to several people and made an appointment to come back the next day before leaving.
As soon as his figure disappeared outside the door, the slightly stiff smile on Cuicui's face suddenly changed into a panicked look, pointing at the book and shaking her head at Li Mei.
Li Mei guessed for a long time and finally figured out what she meant: "You mean you don't need to study anymore?"
Cuicui nodded hurriedly, whimpering as she wanted to speak but couldn't. She kept waving her hands and was so anxious that tears were about to come out.
Li Mei quickly persuaded her: "Okay, okay, okay! My sister-in-law knows it. I will tell Chen Feng tomorrow that she won't bother him to come and read again. Is that what you mean?"
Cuicui showed an expression of relief on her face and nodded heavily.
Little did he know that outside the ward door, Chen Feng, who should have left, was leaning against the door. He heard Li Mei's words clearly, and the weird expression on his face made it difficult to tell what he was thinking.
...
Earlier, Sister-in-law Li Mei came to Yu Changle's ward and thanked her again with tears in her eyes.
In her opinion, Yu Changle not only saved Cuicui, but also caught the bad guy who harmed Cuicui. He was simply a great benefactor to the Li family.
Yu Changle had to try to persuade her again, and Li Mei also tried her best to appease her sister-in-law's excitement. Changle was still a patient and couldn't stand her troubles.
Sister-in-law Li Mei finally stopped crying, looked at Yu Changle and Li Mei's eyes and said with a twist:
"Changle, you and Changxi are both educated people and can talk. You see, Changxi has gone to school, and her sister-in-law and I can't learn those words. Can you please help enlighten Cuicui?"
Li Mei's face fell first. She thought her sister-in-law was really here to visit Yu Changle, but she didn't expect that she was hiding her thoughts. She suddenly became anxious and angry.
"Sister-in-law! Changle has had an operation and needs to rest. How can I trouble a patient to help you? You are really..."
What if Changle misunderstood that she also had this intention and brought his sister-in-law to the door, it would be really embarrassing and unjust!
Yu Changle was only surprised for a second before he came back to his senses and smiled calmly:
"Sister-in-law Li, it's okay. The doctor said I can get out of bed and move around. Besides, it's not far from the next floor."
"Auntie, if nothing happens tomorrow, I will come to see Cuicui and chat with her."
It's okay to be alone in the ward, so just help if you can.
Yu Changle spoke, and Li Mei didn't say anything more although she was embarrassed.
Her sister-in-law couldn't speak, and Cuicui almost fainted with her words today, but she knew that Yu Changle knew more things than Yu Changxi, and it would be a good thing if she could really enlighten Cuicui.
"Changle, my sister-in-law has caused you trouble again. Your recovery is more important. Don't force it!"
Yu Changle smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll ask the doctor tomorrow. If there's no problem, I'll come back."
After seeing off Li Mei and his two sisters-in-law, Yu Changle simply washed up and prepared to go to bed. It had been autumn for several days, and the temperature dropped a lot at night.
Yu Changle, who was lying on the bed thinking about business, suddenly felt a chill on his back.
She frowned and looked up at the door of the ward. The door was closed tightly, and there was no one in sight under the glass.
It was strange, why did she suddenly feel uncomfortable being stared at?
After what happened to Qian Hongbo, Yu Changle believed in his sixth sense more and more.
She had been lying in bed for so many days and was actually able to get out of bed. Just to recover faster, she listened to the doctor's instructions and stayed in bed to recuperate when she had nothing to do.
Although this was a hospital, there shouldn't be any big problems, but every step of the way gained wisdom, so she had to go and see her this time to feel at ease.
Yu Changle endured the pain caused by the wound, carefully moved his steps, and slowly walked to the door of the ward.
open the door--
The corridor on the fourth floor of the hospital was empty, not a soul in sight.
Yu Changle wrinkled his nose. Was he really suspicious of others?
He stood at the door and took another look, then carefully bolted the door and went back to lie down on the bed.
Recalling that Bai Ling said that Qian Hongbo refused to admit Cui Cui's case, they found no physical evidence that could identify Qian Hongbo in Cui Cui's house. Without Cui Cui's witness, the devil might really be able to escape this part of the punishment.
Yu Changle thought for a moment and decided to go check on Cuicui tomorrow.
Late at night.
Except for the lights in the duty room, the lights in all the wards were turned off. No one was walking in the corridor, and it was extremely quiet.
"Ah──"
Suddenly, a shrill scream from a female voice broke through the tranquility of the night, waking up Yu Changle who had just fallen asleep.
Then there was the sound of someone running and talking in the corridor.
What happened?
She pricked up her ears and listened. These sounds were particularly clear in the silent night, as if they were movements coming from downstairs.
The female screams continued to sound, and from time to time there were other cries, which sounded strangely familiar to Yu Changle.
"Cui Cui──"
A heart-wrenching cry reached her ears very clearly.
Cuicui?
Was it Cuicui who was screaming just now?
Yu Changle suddenly woke up and couldn't help but feel a little worried. She got up, put on her clothes, and slowly went downstairs in the dark, touching the wall.
There was only one ward light on downstairs, and there were many awakened patients and family members standing at the door.
A nurse with a serious expression drove away those who were watching the excitement at the door: "Go back to your ward quickly, be careful if you catch a cold and make your condition worse!"
The people at the door dispersed, and Yu Changle leaned over and saw Sister-in-law Li Mei sitting on the ground with tears streaming down her face.
"Auntie, what's wrong?"
The nurse was about to rush people away, but she was not as quick as Sister-in-law Li Mei. As soon as she heard Yu Changle's voice, she got up from the ground, rushed to the door of the ward, grabbed her hand, and begged tearfully:
"Changle, you must enlighten Cuicui. She was acting crazy just now. She suddenly shouted that someone was trying to harm her. She didn't even recognize me as her mother!"
Yu Changle was shocked when he heard Li Mei talk about Cuicui recovering well after waking up. Why did she suddenly become like this?
She thought of Cui Danhong, another girl that Bai Ling had mentioned. She heard that her family had given up treating her madness. She was tied to the room with a hemp rope thicker than her finger all day long, and she was always eating, drinking, and defecating in the room. If we can't solve it here, there will be no human dignity left.
If Cuicui follows in her footsteps, I'm afraid the situation will only get worse. If Li Mei's sister-in-law wants to make money, she won't be able to keep her at home, leaving her alone at home in case something happens again...
This time Yu Changle agreed readily: "Auntie, don't worry, take care of Cuicui tonight first, I will definitely come tomorrow!"
