Chapter 49. ☆ Ruan Hai was beaten

When Ruan Mengmeng arrived at the hospital, there was a group of people in the aisle outside the ward door. They were crouched on the floor or leaning against the wall, with grey footprints and colour on their faces.

The two sides of the room were clearly separated. The elders were cursing and swearing, and the atmosphere was oppressive and dangerous.

She was stunned, and before she could stop herself, she passed through the middle.

As soon as she saw Ruan Hai on the hospital bed, Ruan Mengmeng’s eyes became moist.

Ruan Hai’s head was wrapped in gauze, his face was bruised, and his left eye was swollen.

Ruan Mengmeng reached out her hand, but didn’t know where she could touch it.

“Daddy ……,” Ruan Mengmeng choked out.

“Don’t be afraid. Hai is not seriously injured.” Gu Wei spoke out to comfort.

Handing Ruan Mengmeng a personal card, Gu Wei turned to leave.

Ruan Mengmeng didn’t know anything and was a bit anxious, “That group of people outside ……”

“Mengmeng!” Gu Wei looked back. A pair of majestic heady eyes looked over, and Ruan Mengmeng did not dare to speak.

In less than half an hour, Ruan Hai woke up screaming ‘ouch, ouch, ouch’. Ruan Mengmeng was distressed and angry, and rushed to ring the bell to call the doctor to come over.

Unable to wait for the doctor, Ruan Mengmeng went to the duty room to call for someone, but none of the people in the aisle were there.

What happened? How did her father get involved with Gu Wei? He used to smile and say he would not hug the golden thigh.

Ruan Mengmeng was confused, but she couldn’t ask when Ruan Hai was just awake.

Closing the ward door, Ruan Mengmeng picked up He Yiyang’s call.

“Hello.”

He Yiyang stood in front of the gate across the street, his face grim, “Where are you?”

As soon as Ruan Mengmeng heard it, she knew that He Yiyang was angry, “Brother I’m at the central hospital. I’ve just been busy, something happened to dad.”

He Yiyang’s clenched fist loosened and tightened, “I’m coming over to find you.”

Ruan Mengmeng’s phone was not available, and he didn’t read a minute of his book during the whole evening study. He was so anxious that he skipped the evening study and ran home.

He rapped on the door for a long time, but no one answered. Chen Linjia was abroad and had no idea about Ruan Mengmeng’s situation.

He Yiyang suddenly realised that if Ruan Mengmeng didn’t contact him, there was no other way to find her quickly.

With no clue and a lot of worries, He Yiyang was so stressed that he almost called the locksmith to open the door.

After buying some food on the way, He Yiyang pushed open the door of the hospital room, where Ruan Mengmeng was sitting in front of the bed. She looked at him and immediately stood up.

“So soon?” Ruan Mengmeng asked, “Did you drive here by yourself?”

He Yiyang first went up and looked at Ruan Hai in the hospital bed, still asleep.

Turning around, he hugged Ruan Mengmeng tightly into his arms, his throat tightening, “You worried me to death.”

“I’m sorry.” Ruan Mengmeng returned the hug.

“What’s the situation with Uncle Hai,” He Yiyang let go of her and set the boxed lunch on the small coffee table in the ward, “Let’s talk while we eat.”

After Ruan Hai had woken up, Ruan Mengmeng circled around until he fell asleep again. It was now almost eleven o’clock at night.

Ruan Mengmeng hadn’t even felt hungry before, but now she held a bowl of custard congee and took two big gulps in quick succession.

“Eat slowly.” He Yiyang was distressed and fed her a piece of meat.

Ruan Mengmeng drank half a bowl of congee and saw that He Yiyang had already eaten a bowl of rice, guessing, “Brother, you haven’t eaten dinner?”

He Yiyang glanced over lightly, “You’ve lost contact; I still have the heart to eat?”

Ruan Mengmeng: ……

She was very touched, so she was sticky and rubbed over to hug He Yiyang tightly.

“Later, tell me the password for your house’s front door, as well as the account numbers and passwords for all communication methods.” He Yiyang said as he ate.

This time, he was probably worried too much. Ruan Mengmeng took the initiative and kissed He Yiyang’s face, “Okay.”

Then she told him what happened in the afternoon. At the end, she asked, “Brother, you say, how Uncle Gu will be with Dad, ah? Dad was hospitalised and he has taken care of it ……”

“Gu Wei and Uncle Hai have business together?” He Yiyang was puzzled.

A national real estate tycoon and a small local private entrepreneur. Was it possible that Gu Wei also invested in the Furong chain of supermarkets, intending to grow bigger and stronger, out of C city to the country?

This was not possible. Their careers were a quantum leap apart.

Ruan Mengmeng shook her head, “No, I don’t know. I haven’t heard dad mention it.”

If it wasn’t business, then it was a favour.

Seeing He Yiyang frowning and thinking about it, Ruan Mengmeng smiled and advised him, “Brother, don’t think so much. My father is extremely nice, and opening a supermarket is also a business for the people, so he won’t offend anyone.

He Yiyang smiled and agreed, “Okay, when Uncle Hai wakes up, we’ll know what’s going on.”

Ruan Mengmeng was thinking about He Yiyang, and He Yiyang was also worried about Ruan Mengmeng.

Thinking about the last few incidents Qin Tian had mentioned to him, He Yiyang was keenly aware that something was not simple.

He guessed that the root cause of the matter started twenty years ago when New View Land Company forcibly expropriated and demolished the peasants’ collective land to build a scenic belt along the river.

It was just that in the eyes of Gu Wei and Ruan Hai, they were both still children at school. They were characters to be protected and studying without fear was the only thing to think about.

Ruan Mengmeng looked at the infusion bag and rang the bell for the nurse to come to change the medicine before whispering to He Yiyang, “I’m definitely in the hospital for New Year’s Eve this year. Why don’t you go back to Yangtang Town and spend it with grandpa?”

“In Uncle Hai’s case, grandpa would definitely not be at ease either. This is his in-law,” He Yiyang laughed, pulling Ruan Mengmeng to sit beside him, “It’s too late now, so I didn’t call him. I’ll tell him tomorrow morning. Do you want to stay in bed with him today?”

There was a cot in the ward and the nurse had already brought over a thick quilt. Ruan Mengmeng nodded, “I’m not sure. Dad has to change his medicine at night too.”

“En,” He Yiyang patted the sofa beneath him, “then I’ll stay with you.”

“Huh? No need-“

He Yiyang pecked Ruan Mengmeng’s mouth, blocking the words she wanted to say, “Good girl. A son-in-law is half a child. I’ll take the opportunity to show off too.”

Ruan Mengmeng laughed and said, moved, “Alright, I’ve received your family’s heirloom bracelet anyway. I’ll ask the nurse for an extra quilt.”

The ward was a separate suite. Ruan Mengmeng couldn’t drive He Yiyang home to sleep, so she could only give him the companion bed and sleep on the sofa herself.

The next day, Ruan Hai woke up again at noon. He Yiyang had already returned to school and He Zhenhua came to visit again.

He Zhenhua, who was over 60 years old, was strong, hale and hearty. After dinner, he insisted that Ruan Mengmeng go home and get some rest, not allowing her to stay in the bed at night.

“Look at how thin you’ve become. When the north wind blows, you can fly,” He Zhenhua said with distress, “Your face is also not good. Hey, this studying is a sin. Your brother is in his senior year and he’s better than you. Look at how sturdy.”

He patted He Yiyang’s shoulder next to him and gave Ruan Mengmeng an earful, “You should hurry home and get some sleep. Girls don’t stay up so much. It’s bad for your health!”

He Yiyang, who had been slapped by his grandfather as if he were a bamboo on a mountain, secretly choked on his breath. The hand of a craftsman was not small.

Ruan Hai was awake, but he couldn’t move.

He was relieved that his daughter was worried about him, but seeing her tired face and stubborn refusal to leave, Ruan Hai was even more distressed and waved at her.

“Dad.” Ruan Mengmeng shouted.

“Grandpa He has hired an intensive care nurse. A professional. You go home and get some sleep, then come back to see dad in the morning.” Ruan Hai said with difficulty.

Ruan Mengmeng’s eyes flicked over the three faces, all looking at her helplessly.

“Okay, I’ll ask the doctor about your condition and go home with my brother.”

The meaning of this is correct, but Ruan Hai always felt that something was wrong. Why was it home with He Yiyang, ah? It was obviously opposite door to door, each back to their own home.

Hey… my daughter could still stay for a few years. Ruan Hai felt pain all over.

“The patient is awake and the bruising at the back of the head is nothing serious from the films taken today,” the doctor pointed to the CT of Ruan Hai’s brain and said to Ruan Mengmeng, “The family can rest assured that the hospital’s intensive care staff are trained and certified.”

“You’re relieved?” He Yiyang took Ruan Mengmeng’s hand and went home.

“En.” Ruan Mengmeng pursed her lips and smiled, a yawn following close behind.

“Go home, take a shower and go to sleep. All I heard last night was you getting up.” He Yiyang said.

Ruan Mengmeng hugged He Yiyang’s arm, “It made a lot of noise for you too, didn’t it?”

He Yiyang pinched the tip of her nose, his smile doting.

“You drove here?” Ruan Mengmeng was surprised to see the Land Rover, “Brother you’re not driving to school, are you?”

Although it was winter break cramming and there was no one else at school except the senior class, such a high school student driving to school was a bit exaggerated, right?

“It saves time.” He Yiyang didn’t think anything of it.

It was not a normal class, and the doorman was familiar with him. It was convenient to park in the teachers’ parking space. After all, he was the former student council president. If this convenience was not available, it would be a joke.

Ruan Mengmeng was embarrassed. When she got into the car, she looked at him as a matter of course. She didn’t bother to say that she was falling asleep in the co-pilot after a while.

He Yiyang parked the car and took Ruan Mengmeng directly from the car to take the lift up. Standing in the middle of the two families, he was in a difficult position.

“Little piggy Ruan,” He Yiyang looked at Ruan Mengmeng, who was sleeping like she had passed out, “I really want to carry you back to my place.”

After struggling for a while, He Yiyang opened the door of the Ruan family’s house to take Ruan Mengmeng back to his bed, upholding the ethics of a gentleman’s manners.

Ruan Mengmeng was probably in familiar surroundings and rubbed against the pillow, sleeping soundly.

“What a big heart!” He Yiyang smiled dotingly, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, saying goodnight.
