When they arrived at the hospital and saw Momo in the hospital bed, they could hardly believe it. The person who was fine during the day had suddenly become injured and unconscious.

Schimerlin's head was wrapped in thick gauze, his face was pale and bloodless, and the large and small red and swollen wounds were very obvious!

Just how heavy a blow was used?!

Shu Xiangyu hurriedly bent down beside her, her hand hovering in the air. She wanted to touch Momo, who was now like a shard of glass, but dared not. Tears welled up in her eyes instantly. How could she have been so badly injured in just a few hours?

"Mo Mo, Mo Mo, how could this happen..."

The police called over Mr. Liu, who was waiting nearby, and asked him to tell Yang Yufen the general situation.

Fortunately, the doctor examined her and found that she had only been kicked and bruised, and had not been sexually assaulted, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

Yang Yufen excitedly grasped Grandpa Liu's hand and bowed repeatedly to express her gratitude. Without him, she didn't know when she would have been discovered.

The upright old man, Mr. Liu, is still indignant: "I don't know which beast dared to treat a girl so badly! Officers, you must catch the murderer and punish him severely... I have something to do, so I'll go back first."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Yang Yufen immediately went up to him and asked for his contact information, saying that she would definitely visit him to express her gratitude after Mo Mo was discharged from the hospital.

Grandpa Liu said he didn't care about these things; he just felt sorry for the girl and wanted to do his part.

Before the police officers registered the case and left, they repeatedly told them to contact the person involved as soon as they woke up.

After a while, the emergency room doctor came and told them about Momo's injuries.

She has two minor fractures in her ribs, multiple bruises on her body causing soft tissue contusions, and a moderate concussion. Almost all of these injuries were caused by physical assault. She is receiving intravenous fluids and has a urinary catheter inserted. She needs to be hospitalized for a few days for observation to see if there are any other long-term effects.

Shu Xiangyu, her eyes blurry with tears, watched Momo by the bedside and listened to the doctor's words, feeling heartbroken. She deeply blamed herself for her negligence; if she had noticed something was wrong immediately, this wouldn't have happened.

Yang Yufen then went with the doctor to complete the relevant procedures, preparing to transfer Momo to the surgery department first, and also to inform Shu Yunrong of her condition as soon as possible.

"If I find out who did it, I will never let them get away with it!"

Shu Xiangjun clenched his fists, filled with resentment.

Shu Xiangyu gently held the hand that was wrapped in gauze, secretly praying that she would wake up soon. As for the person who hit her, she also secretly decided that she would definitely retaliate in kind.

Shu Yunrong took leave and rushed back from the brigade overnight. On the way, he contacted Coach Tang Xiaolong. The person who could do these things must be a Taekwondo practitioner, and almost everyone Momo knows now is from a Taekwondo gym. With a little investigation, they would know who did it.

The next day, Shu Xiangyu arrived at the hospital early with her personal belongings, but Mo Mo remained unconscious.

Yang Yufen stayed at the hospital all night. Now that Xiao Yu has arrived, she can go home and rest for a while and come back in the afternoon.

After the nurse started the IV drip on Xi Molin, Yang Yufen carefully instructed her daughter on some precautions before dragging her tired body back home.

Shu Xiangyu stayed by the hospital bedside, her eyes filled with heartache and worry as she looked at Momo. She had barely slept a wink last night, repeatedly recalling the events of the past few days, but ultimately couldn't sort out her thoughts.

"MoMo, wake up... you silly blockhead, what happened? Why didn't you tell us?"

The child, who usually seems dull, actually has a strong competitive spirit and has to do many things on her own. If she were with her biological parents, she might be able to act spoiled, but when she came to her home, her understanding and maturity far exceeded the naivety and innocence that one should have at this age.

Her family members all understood that she didn't want to be a burden to them and respected her thoughts. However, she could no longer easily express those hidden feelings, and her patience was perhaps ingrained in her very being.

They longed to fill her heart with care and love, to help her become a lively and cheerful child again, instead of always being cautious and timid, afraid of troubling them.

Shu Xiangjun and Shu Yunrong rushed to the Taekwondo gym early in the morning and retrieved the surveillance video from the past few days in Tang Xiaolong's office.

They soon discovered the scene of Lu Xiyi causing trouble for Momo that afternoon with two thugs.

"Who is this boy?"

Shu Yunrong stared at the computer screen with a furrowed brow.

Tang Xiaolong also looked solemn; he never expected such a thing to happen.

"His name is Lu Xiyi. His parents own a construction company in the city. He's pretty normal during training, but he's a bit arrogant and eccentric. However, he hasn't bullied anyone in all these years..."

"That's because they weren't discovered, or someone took care of it!"

Shu Yunrong has always been good at judging people. This Lu Xiyi looks like a deep thinker and is definitely not the kind of person who acts impulsively.

Shu Xiangjun's eyes flashed with coldness as she said fiercely, "You brat, how dare you bully my sister! I will never let you get away with this!"

"Coach Tang, do you have his family's contact information?"

Tang Xiaolong hurriedly replied, "Yes, I have his mother's phone number."

Wearing his armed police uniform, Shu Yunrong exuded an unyielding and righteous aura: "Then please give me your phone number."

Tang Xiaolong then opened the computer's folder and found Lu Xiyi's information.

After writing down the phone number and copying the video, Shu Yunrong and Shu Xiangjun left the Taekwondo gym.

As soon as they got into the car, Shu Xiangjun asked, "Dad, shall we go find him now?"

"Go to the police station!"

Shu Yunrong started the car and drove towards the local police station.

Although Shu Xiangjun really wanted to teach that boy a lesson, he understood that only through proper channels could the matter be resolved completely.

On the way there, Shu Yunrong called his wife and briefly explained the situation. He was relieved to learn that Xiaoyu was at the hospital taking care of Momo. Both of his children cared about Momo, so it seemed that they had been getting along well during this time.

Upon arriving at the police station, Shu Yunrong showed the video to her friend, Officer Li Yifei, who quickly contacted Lu Xiyi's mother to come over.

Lu Xiyi's mother knew he had been fighting outside again when he came home, but his family was used to cleaning up his messes, so she didn't take it to heart. When she received the call from the police, she remained calm, believing that anything that could be solved with money was not a big deal.

After waiting for more than an hour at the police station, Lu Xiyi and his mother, Lü Huifang, finally arrived late.

Lu Xiyi's facial injuries were clearly visible, but he moved freely, indicating that his injuries were much minor.

He came in and sat down to the side as if no one else was there, waiting for his mother to smooth things over for him.

Seeing his arrogant attitude, Shu Xiangjun really wanted to go up and beat him up, but since they were at the police station, he could only hold back.

Lu Hui was dressed very well, with her hair permed into fine curls. She was slightly overweight, and the powder on her face was too white, making her lipstick appear even more vibrant. Her eyes also revealed her shrewdness.

"Officer, it was just kids playing around. We're willing to compensate the other child for medical expenses and emotional distress..."

As soon as she spoke, Shu Yunrong and Li Yifei immediately realized that she had come prepared.

Or perhaps they are too experienced and know how to handle such situations.

Li Yifei frowned habitually and gestured to the father and son standing to the side: "They are the child's parents, you need to ask their opinion."

Only then did Lü Hui notice Shu Yunrong, dressed in a regular armed police uniform, and the younger Shu Xiangjun beside her. She quickly realized that this parent was not someone to be trifled with and could not be easily appeased with money. She then adopted an apologetic posture: "I'm so sorry, my son injured your son, you..."

Shu Yunrong immediately interrupted her: "Madam, you may not be aware of the situation. The person your son injured this time is my youngest daughter! She is still in the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Lü Hui's expression changed drastically. She never expected that her son would hit a girl this time!

"daughter?"

Even she was a little shocked.

Upon seeing the culprit, Shu Xiangjun couldn't help but shout angrily, "My sister is still unconscious in the hospital with two broken ribs. This time, we absolutely cannot let him get away with this!"

Lu Xiyi was looking down at his most expensive full-screen phone at the moment, and when he heard this, he laughed out contemptuously.

The sound, though not loud, was extremely jarring.

Shu Yunrong, who seemed calm on the surface, suddenly changed his expression. Wearing leather shoes, he walked up to him in a few steps, his deep, cold voice carrying an undeniable sense of oppression: "My youngest daughter has always been very well-behaved. Tell me why you hit her?"

Lu Xiyi suppressed his displeasure, seemingly knowing that he couldn't do anything to him, and without even glancing at him, coldly said, "I can hit you if I want to, what reason do I need?"

Upon hearing this, Shu Xiangjun immediately rushed over, wanting to teach him a lesson, but was stopped by Shu Yunrong.

Li Yifei walked over and said sternly, "Lu Xiyi, this is a police station. You have to be responsible for what you say."

Lu Hui rushed to her son's side, her previously composed face now filled with worry and sorrow. She angrily scolded, "What are you still being so stubborn about? Apologize right now! Do you want to go to jail?"

To everyone's surprise, Lu Xiyi suddenly stood up, her expression still full of disdain: "Why should I apologize! Why should I apologize? I just hate her, I'm going to beat her to death! She deserves it..."

Lu Hui looked at him in disbelief. She didn't know what had happened between her son and that girl, but there was clearly some unspeakable conflict between them!

Shu Xiangjun was already furious, and hearing his unrepentant words about wanting to beat Momo to death only fueled his rage. He pointed at him hatefully, "You brat, what did you say... you want to beat her to death! I'll fucking kill you first..."

"My lord, stop..."

Shu Yunrong suddenly called out to him.

Shu Xiangjun raised his arm and held it in mid-air, but after a moment, he lowered it in frustration, his eyes filled with anger like countless sharp swords.

Just when Lu Xiyi thought he had succeeded, Shu Yunrong remained calm and composed: "Lu Xiyi, you should be an adult now, right? You know that intentionally causing minor injury can result in up to three years in prison, detention, or probation; causing serious injury can result in three to ten years in prison. How long do you think you can be sentenced for intentionally injuring my youngest daughter this time? I believe this isn't the first time. With multiple offenses, do you think you'll have the chance to be so arrogant again!"

Upon hearing this, both Lu Xiyi and Lü Hui turned deathly pale!

"Brother, I'm so sorry, so sorry. My son was in the wrong first. Please be magnanimous and forgive him this time. I promise to discipline him properly when we get back. We will compensate you for all your daughter's losses. Please, please..."

Lu Hui hurriedly grabbed Shu Yunrong's arm and pleaded repeatedly, tears welling up in her eyes. This time, she really had no confidence left.

Shu Yunrong's expression turned solemn as he asked Lu Xiyi the same question again: "I want to know why you hit my youngest daughter!"

Lu Hui, in a fit of anger, slapped her son a few times: "Tell me! Do you really want to go to jail?"

At this moment, Lu Xiyi's arrogant and conceited attitude finally deflated!

He lowered his proud head dejectedly, standing there for a long while before whispering, "I... like Shu Xiangyu, and I'm jealous of how good she is to Xi Molin, so yesterday afternoon, I asked her to meet me at the Four-Arch Bridge. After we talked, we started fighting..."

So that's the reason!

Shu Yunrong and Shu Xiangjun were both surprised and shocked. Mo Mo had bravely protected her beloved older sister with her small body. She dared to fight alone, which was quite impressive.

Lu Hui, exasperated, slapped him a few more times, her face flushed red, her eyes filled with disappointment: "Are you brainless? If you like someone, go after them! Why did you have to hit someone else's daughter?"

Shu Xiangjun thought about it again and realized something was wrong. She pointed at him and cursed, "Are you fucking crazy? Momo isn't someone my sister likes. She's our sister. How can you be jealous of her and beat her up so badly?"

Lu Hui felt a wave of dizziness wash over her. It took her so long to figure out the connection. It turned out that the person her son liked and the girl who was beaten were family.

"I just can't stand her. Why does she get all of Shu Xiangyu's attention so soon after she arrived? Why can't she see me even though I'm with her every day? I'm not reconciled..."

Lu Xiyi was like a furious and ferocious wolf. Long-buried jealousy had long eroded his heart. He thought he was willing to give but did not receive the same return, which made his mentality more and more distorted and gradually blinded him. He saw everyone as an enemy.

Shu Xiangjun sneered, "With your looks, my sister would never even glance at you. Don't even dream about it."

Shu Yunrong's expression was serious, her gaze sharp as a knife: "Lu Xiyi, since you admit what you did, you must bear the corresponding consequences. If I weren't wearing this uniform today, do you think you would still be standing here safely? I cannot make the decision for my youngest daughter this time. Once she wakes up, if she wants to pursue the matter, we will definitely seek justice for her!"

"Then let's forget it?"

Seeing that there was no follow-up, Shu Xiangjun was somewhat indignant.

"It's already been filed. We'll discuss it again once Momo wakes up."

Shu Yunrong ignored Lü Hui and Lu Xiyi, turned around to thank Li Yifei, and then left the police station with Shu Xiangjun.

Meanwhile, Shu Xiangyu stayed by Momo's side at the hospital, and thankfully, Momo didn't keep her waiting too long and gradually woke up...
