Reborn in the 90s, I traded my ex-husband for eight apartments.

After Bai Zhenzhu returned to her ward with her cast on, Lin Peijun, who had received the news, also rushed over.

"What's going on? I just turned around and you broke your own bone."

Lin Pei-Chun's tone was urgent:

"Xia He didn't explain clearly on the phone, only saying that you were beaten up and hospitalized. I was so scared that I rushed over before the meeting was even over. What exactly happened?"

Bai Zhenzhu was both amused and exasperated by Xia He's temperament, and briefly explained the cause and course of events.

Lin Pei-Chun was speechless:

"You guys are too bold. Luckily, nothing serious happened."

Bai Zhenzhu: "We didn't expect to encounter such a thing when we went there. We are very grateful to Zhou Ting and Comrade Ling this time."

If Zhou Ting hadn't been so vigilant and contacted Ling Huafeng early on, they wouldn't know how they would have escaped today.

That was incredibly dangerous.

Seeing that the soup had cooled down enough, Xia He set up a small table on the hospital bed and brought the soup over.

"Pearl, this is pork bone soup. It's good for your health."

Seeing that it was getting late, Bai Zhenzhu said:

"You guys go eat too, I'm all done here."

Xia He: "Once Zhou Ting cancels his plane ticket and comes back, we can just eat whatever we want. You just drink your soup and don't worry about us."

Lin Peijun said:

"I'll take Xiahe to retrieve your luggage later, and we'll find a hotel near the hospital for convenience."

Xia He immediately said:

"We'll check out tonight."

When Zhou Ting returned after canceling her plane ticket, she brought back dinner. After dinner, Lin Peijun and Xia He went to check out of the hotel they had stayed at.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after they found a hotel and got a room.

The doctor advised that Bai Zhenzhu stay in the hospital for at least three days for observation, and she could be discharged if there were no major problems.

Bai Zhenzhu didn't want to become a cripple, so she naturally listened to the doctor.

Lin Peijun went home that evening; she had children at home and said she would come back tomorrow.

Bai Zhenzhu knew she was busy and told her not to come over. She said Zhou Ting and Xia He were at the hospital, and she wasn't completely immobile, so she didn't need so many people.

Seeing that it was getting late, Bai Zhenzhu told Zhou Ting to go to the hotel to rest. She was staying in a double room, and the other bed was empty, so Xia He could go to sleep first.

Zhou Ting didn't say anything, closed the door, and left.

After a while, Xia He secretly glanced at her and said to Bai Zhenzhu:

"Xiao Zhou fell asleep while sitting outside."

White Pearl was helpless.

She was now quite certain that Zhou Ting was acting on Huo Zheng's orders to protect her safety.

"You should go to sleep too, it's getting late."

Xia He said she wasn't sleepy, but she fell asleep in no time.

White Pearl couldn't sleep.

During the day, my attention is diverted to various things, so the pain at the broken bone is bearable.

By evening, it seemed all my attention was focused on that area, and I felt a soreness, swelling, and pain.

Especially since she couldn't move while lying down, it was really tough for her.

Bai Zhenzhu didn't sleep much that night, and was in a daze the whole time.

Finally, dawn broke.

The doctor came by this morning, asked some questions, and then left.

However, Bai Zhenzhu clearly felt that the broken bone was more painful the next day.

She's a very patient person; if she can bear it, she won't show it.

But the excruciating pain of a broken bone was unbearable, and he couldn't help but frown.

Seeing her like that, Xiahe ran to find a doctor again. The doctor said it was normal and that she would feel less pain tomorrow if she could just get through today.

Xia He felt extremely guilty, so she brought back soup for Bai Zhenzhu at noon.

However, Bai Zhenzhu had no appetite and only drank a few sips before stopping.

Seeing Xia He's expression, she couldn't help but laugh again:

"Don't look so glum. The doctor said you'll be fine after today. Pain is normal; it would be troublesome if you didn't feel pain."

Xia He was furious:

"Why didn't that bastard come at me? I'd rather be the one who got hurt."

"Did you tell Uncle Bai and the others about your injury?"

White Pearl shook her head:

"It's nothing serious, don't let them worry."

She didn't tell her family, but only called Liu Huiying to say she would be back in a few days.

Having not slept well last night, Bai Zhenzhu dozed off for a while in a daze.

She hadn't slept long before she was woken up by the pain again. It felt like someone was sawing her leg with a saw, and it was swollen and hot. The pain made Bai Zhenzhu groan.

The next moment, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from the side:

"Xiaobai, just bear with it. The doctor has already gone to get some imported painkillers."

Bai Zhenzhu opened her eyes with a "whoosh," her face filled with disbelief:

"Mr. Huo?"

"When...did you arrive?"

Xia He suppressed a laugh from the side:

"President Huo has been here for a while now. He set off yesterday in order to get here as soon as possible, and even changed planes once along the way."

White Pearl: "..."

Xia He just couldn't stop talking:

"It's great that you can use painkillers. You won't be in so much pain if you use the medicine."

"Imported drugs have fewer side effects. Luckily, Mr. Huo came; none of us expected that."

Who would have thought? Most people felt that they could just endure it and it would pass.

Now that there were painkillers available, Bai Zhenzhu was unwilling to continue suffering.

Just as I was about to express my gratitude, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open.

Ling Huafeng strode over and gave Huo Zheng a tight hug.

He then slapped Huo Zheng hard on the back a few more times:

That's not fair!

"You yourself have said you've passed through Guangzhou several times, but you've never come to visit."

"If my sister-in-law hadn't been injured this time, we'd probably be all white-bearded by the time we meet again."

Huo Zheng released Ling Huafeng and coughed lightly:

Let's go outside and talk.

Ling Huafeng laughed heartily:

"Why are you going out? Your sister-in-law is awake."

"Sister-in-law, how are you feeling..."

Before he could finish speaking, Huo Zheng pulled him out.

Bai Zhenzhu was so embarrassed that she forgot her leg hurt.

Xia He shook her bed to make her sit up, suppressing a laugh as she said:

"Were you moved?"

"If it were me, I would definitely be moved."

White Pearl: "..."

Huo Zheng dragged Ling Huafeng all the way to the other end of the corridor before letting go.

Ling Huafeng was very puzzled:

"What are you doing? I'm not going to tell your sister-in-law about your embarrassing experiences in the army."

Huo Zheng was helpless:

"Don't shout nonsense, she and I aren't in that kind of relationship."

Ling Huafeng was taken aback:

"Oh, is that so? Then I must have said something wrong?"

Huo Zheng: "It's alright, just be careful from now on."

Then they got down to business:

"What's the situation with the main culprit, and how many years will they be sentenced to?"

Ling Huafeng shook his head:

"I'm also collecting evidence of that kid's crimes. He's just a thug, at most he bullies the weak, collects protection money, and cheats people. He's really not guilty of anything serious."

Huo Zheng said solemnly:

"How not?"

"Mr. Bai came to Guangzhou to discuss business, a cooperation worth tens of millions, and now he's been beaten up and hospitalized in Guangzhou. Isn't this a big deal? Is this how you treat your business partners in Guangzhou?"

Ling Huafeng's eyes widened gradually:

"Yes, it must be counted."

Huo Zheng's expression was very serious:

“Ms. Bai earns tens of thousands of yuan every day. Now she is stuck in Guangzhou due to her injuries and will need a long period of recuperation, which has seriously affected her life and work.”

"This...someone has to pay compensation, right?"

Ling Huafeng's expression also turned serious.

If you calculate it this way, this matter is really not a small one.
