The door opened, and two people were pushed out one after another.
"Are you okay, Doctor?" Several people stepped forward anxiously to inquire.
"The current situation is stable. There's nothing serious, it's just..." The doctor hesitated for a moment and took a breath.
Hearing the first half of the sentence, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. But when the doctor paused after that, their hearts immediately rose to their throats.
"What's wrong?! Doctor!"
"Nothing. Mr. Mu lost too much blood and his body is weak. He needs more rest. As for Mrs. Meng, she has a comminuted fracture in her calf. Coupled with excessive shock, she needs to stay in bed for a long - time recovery."
The doctor briefly described the conditions of the two.
"There's no major problem. Just recuperate well."
Only then did everyone completely relax. They secretly cursed the doctor in their hearts for speaking in such a halting way. It almost scared them to death.
"Okay, okay. Thank you very much!" Father Meng thanked the doctor and hurriedly followed Mother Meng's hospital bed back to the ward.
Seeing Mu Junze's pale face due to excessive blood loss, Meng Nianchu's tears couldn't stop falling again.
She touched Mu Junze's face and blamed him, "Why are you so stupid?!"
While saying this, she followed Mu Junze's hospital bed back to the ward.
The ward wasn't very spacious in the first place. Moreover, there were few people in the other beds. So basically everyone in this ward knew each other.
There were Father Meng, Mother Meng, Mu Junze, and there was still an empty bed for the caregiver to rest.
After Father Meng returned to the ward, he was so anxious that he kept staying beside Mother Meng, bustling around to take care of her.
When Meng Nianchu came back and saw this, she couldn't help feeling a little envious. She really hoped that her love with Mu Junze would also be like this in the future.
"Dad, stop bustling around. Let Mom have a good rest and regain her energy."
Meng Nianchu interrupted Father Meng and said.
"Alas, okay."
Father Meng looked at Mother Meng's haggard face, and his heart ached again.
"Alas, my illness has really caused her a lot of trouble."
Meng Nianchu also sighed. There had really been one trouble after another recently.
"By the way, Dad, how can you talk now?"
Meng Nianchu suddenly remembered Father Meng's change and asked curiously.
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten!" Father Meng's emotions suddenly became excited again.
"Dad, don't be in a hurry. Take your time."
Meng Nianchu soothed Father Meng's emotions. Although she already knew that it was Aunt Sun who had caused all this, she still wanted to know the specific situation.
Father Meng took a few breaths, cleared his throat, and slowly began to tell his story.
...
At that time, he had just been admitted to the hospital for a few days. In the morning, he still got up, exercised, took medicine, and had his body checked as usual.
Aunt Sun also accompanied Father Meng to chat, tidy up things, and get meals as usual.
At noon that day, Father Meng was a little tired after multiple physical examinations, so he took a little nap.
In his sleep, he heard Aunt Sun chatting with a woman, but he didn't know what they were talking about. Then when he woke up, he saw a shocking scene.
Aunt Sun was actually adding something to the cup from which he drank water and took medicine.
He didn't see what the package was. He only saw that Aunt Sun had half a capsule in her hand, with white powder flowing out of it.
"What are you doing?"
Father Meng woke up suddenly and asked angrily.
"Are you trying to harm me?! What is this you're adding?"
"Mr. Meng, this... What are you talking about?" Aunt Sun's eyes were darting around quickly. She didn't dare to look Father Meng in the eye and just continued,
"This is medicine. It can cure your illness. Drink it quickly," Aunt Sun's voice changed a little. She cleared her throat and continued, "I have no grudges against you. Why would I want to harm you? There's no reason for that."
"I saw it all. Do you still want to argue?" Father Meng was completely furious. He never thought that the person he trusted so much would actually try to harm him.
"I really have no bad intentions. The medicine can really cure your illness. Drink it quickly." Aunt Sun picked up the cup and handed it to Father Meng.
"Go to hell. Drink your own shit! I'm not drinking," Father Meng cursed angrily in excitement. With a wave of his hand, he knocked the water cup to the ground, and the medicine in the water spilled out.
"You..." Aunt Sun was also a little anxious. But after all, she was in the wrong. Since she had been discovered, it was not good for her to argue anymore.
"Mr. Meng, just drink it when I tell you to. Why are you still struggling?"
Just as the two were confronting each other, a familiar woman's voice came from outside the door.
"Rong'er?!" Father Meng was also shocked. This voice was definitely Rong'er's.
Although Meng Rong was his adopted daughter, he had known her for so long that he couldn't be more familiar with her.
The woman walked in. Looking at her appearance, it was clearly not Meng Rong, but Linda.
"You're not Rong'er? Then who are you?"
"Rong'er? Humph, Rong'er is already dead," Linda sneered and said, "Who am I? I'm here to take your life!"
After Linda came in, two big men wearing sunglasses followed her in and closed the door by the way.
"What are you doing? Don't come over!" Father Meng felt a sense of uneasiness and quickly picked up pillows, quilts, etc., and threw them at them.
The two big men took a quick step forward, held Father Meng down, and pried open his mouth.
"Let me tell you what this is." Linda said as she stepped forward and said to Father Meng.
"This is the poison used to take your life. Originally, I planned to let her put it in slowly so that you could live a little longer. But unexpectedly, you discovered it."
Linda said and then handed a strip of capsules to Aunt Sun and said, "You feed all these to him. Just take his life today."
"This... This isn't good, is it?" Aunt Sun hesitated a little.
"What? Old woman, do you not want the money anymore? Or..." Linda leaned over to her ear and whispered, "Don't you want your grandson anymore?"
Hearing this, Aunt Sun gave up her resistance in her heart and could only do as she was told. While fetching water, she said to Father Meng, "I'm sorry, Mr. Meng. Don't blame me. I also have my own difficulties."
In a short while, all the medicine had been put into the water. With the help of the two big men, they forced Father Meng to drink it.
Father Meng struggled a few times but couldn't break free. He could only watch helplessly as the poison was poured into his stomach. His desperate eyes stared fixedly at Linda and Aunt Sun, secretly vowing that even if he became a ghost, he would never let them go.
As he thought about it, his consciousness began to blur, and then he completely fell into a coma.
Later, just by chance, a doctor came for a ward round. After an emergency gastric lavage and infusion, his life was barely saved. But after he woke up, he couldn't speak anymore.
...
"This is simply outrageous!" Father Meng was still trembling with anger when he said this.
Meng Nianchu and the flat - headed man were also a little scared when they heard this. If it weren't for that, Father Meng would have really been in danger.
At this time, the flat - headed man suddenly gave a start and shouted towards the door, "Who's there?!"
Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, gradually fading away.
Everyone quickly opened the door and only saw a dirty rag lying on the ground.
"Is it her?!"
