My Happy Daily Life After Being Reborn-Chapter 307 - 23: Origins
Chapter 307: Chapter 23: Origins
"Stop!" Seeing that his son was about to cry, Shen Chi hurriedly said, "Tears might cause the wound to scar!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yinian quickly held back his tears.
However, Lin Xiaogui couldn’t help but shed tears, as she observed her son’s injured face. She had seen him hurt his face in a train incident before, but this time was different. Even though she didn’t know much, she could tell that the wound on her son’s face was caused by a sharp object.
She turned to Mou Shangqing, "Director Mou, the wound on my son’s face was obviously caused by a sharp object. Doesn’t your school owe me an explanation?"
Lin Xiaogui’s voice was soft and gentle, almost pitiful as she spoke, but having experienced her intimidating stare before, Mou Shangqing didn’t dare to take her for an ordinary frail woman.
"I am very sorry, this was our school’s oversight. We did not expect a first-grader to hide a Swiss Army Knife in his backpack." His attitude was very sincere, as he acknowledged their fault this time.
"What about the student who injured my son?" Lin Xiaogui’s tone lightened slightly as she asked.
If this man dared to shirk responsibility, she was determined to invoke "insomnia" on him, making him have nightmares every night, never sleeping peacefully again.
Mou Shangqing touched his nose and said, "That child was also terrified. I let him go back to class first; his father hasn’t been contacted yet."
Seeing that Lin Xiaogui looked somewhat unhappy, he quickly added, "Shen Yinian might need to stay in the hospital for a few more days. Once I contact Zeng Yi’s parents, I will ask them to visit the hospital."
Lin Xiaogui pursed her lips, slightly dissatisfied, but she did not burst out. It wasn’t good to take it out on a child; everything still depended on the parents showing up.
Shen Yinian was terribly scared today and fell asleep shortly after the ointment was applied.
Lin Xiaogui stayed to care for him, while Shen Chi rushed back to the Military Department—after all, he had left in a hurry and had not taken any leave.
After Mou Shangqing and Teacher Zhong also left, Lin Xiaogui walked out of the hospital ward and used a public phone to call home.
"Grandma, I won’t be coming home today. Little Niangao has been injured and needs to stay in the hospital, I’ll stay overnight to accompany him. You take care of Sisi and the others. No, I can eat at a restaurant, and I can buy daily necessities outside. Hm? Okay, tell Dad that Little Niangao is in Room 509."
Not long after the call, Shen Mincheng hurried over from home. free𝑤ebnovel.com
"Where’s Little Niangao? How did he suddenly get injured? What’s going on with their school, can’t they even look after a child properly? It’s on his face, are his eyes okay?" His eldest grandson was like the apple of Shen Mincheng’s eye. Though he now had four other grandchildren, only Little Niangao carried the Shen surname, and although he loved his granddaughters, he couldn’t shed his traditional preference for boys.
"Dad, keep it down, Little Niangao is asleep," Lin Xiaogui took the daily necessities he had brought and said.
Upon hearing this, Shen Mincheng shrank his head and peeked anxiously at his eldest grandson lying in the hospital bed. Seeing the ferocious wound on his grandson’s face, his color drained immediately, and he anxiously said, "How could he be so severely wounded? How will this heal? What if he is left with a scar and can’t find a wife? Little Niangao gets such good grades, what if universities refuse to admit him because of the scar on his face?"
The old man became completely distraught, tears falling from his eyes.
Lin Xiaogui’s expression softened slightly as she comforted him, "Don’t worry, Little Niangao used good medicine, didn’t you see they didn’t even stitch him up?"
Shen Mincheng had thought the lack of stitches meant the injury was not severe, and his mood immediately improved significantly. He asked, "Does Little Niangao need to eat when he wakes up? Mom told me to bring food over; what if it gets cold?"
"It’s fine, it’s summer, it cools down slowly. Otherwise, we can heat it up in the cafeteria," Lin Xiaogui replied.
Shen Mincheng one relieved, he pulled up a chair and sat by his grandson’s bed.
Lin Xiaogui thought for a moment and said, "Dad, you stay here and watch over Little Niangao; I’m going out to buy some food that is good for healing wounds."
Though she said that, she was thinking about buying from the exchange store.
"Alright, go quickly," Shen Mincheng urged, eager to help his grandson.
When Lin Xiaogui returned carrying the items, Shen Yinian was still not awake, and she reluctantly started eating with Shen Mincheng. Fortunately, just after seven o’clock when Shen Yinian woke up, Shen Chi also arrived with freshly made food.
"Have you guys eaten?" Shen Chi asked Lin Xiaogui.
"We ate, but Little Niangao hasn’t eaten yet."
Upon hearing this, Shen Chi hurriedly took the food out of the basket, "Grandma made extra food just in case."
"Mom, my wound hurts," Shen Yinian complained, now that the anesthetic had worn off, eating inevitably aggravated his wound.
