Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 642 - 637: The Car Accident (Part 2)

Amid Bai Jing’s screams, Zhou Guangsheng forcibly pressed her down onto the sofa, and Bai Jing’s mother administered an injection, after which Bai Jing gradually calmed down and slumped onto the sofa, asleep.

Zhou Guangsheng then helped Bai Jing’s mother move Bai Jing back into her room to lie down. After coming out again, Zhou Guangsheng had a heart-to-heart with Bai Jing’s mother, "Auntie, I came here originally planning to clear things up with Bai Jing to avoid any future entanglements between our two families. Bai Jing insists that the child is mine, but we both know for certain that the child has nothing to do with me."

Bai Jing’s mother nodded slightly, aware of the circumstances, she looked at Zhou Guangsheng with some guilt, saying, "I understand, you’re a good kid. It’s her misfortune that Bai Jing didn’t cherish you."

Zhou Guangsheng nodded, thinking to himself how rare it was for Bai Jing’s mother to be so sensible this time, which was considered good. Anyway, it was useless to explain anything to Bai Jing now, the same went for speaking with her family.

But not long after, Bai Jing’s mother became unreasonable, suddenly begging Zhou Guangsheng, "However, Guangsheng, could I ask you for a favor? Could you postpone your marriage and help stabilize Bai Jing’s emotions first?"

This was a request Zhou Guangsheng could by no means agree to, he outright refused, "Auntie, I’m sorry, but I cannot agree to this request. Originally, my fiancee and I were about to get married, but because Bai Jing brought my mother to the city and caused misunderstandings between my fiancee and me, we’ve been delaying until now. We can’t delay any longer."

It was an issue Zhou Guangsheng had already discussed back and forth many times, and he didn’t want to say more. In the end, he spoke bluntly, "Auntie, what I mean is I hope from now on you could properly look after Bai Jing. If something happens again in the future, I won’t be able to show any mercy."

"This..." Bai Jing’s mother hesitated, looking somewhat unhappy.

Zhou Guangsheng didn’t bother with her further, simply stood up and said, "Auntie, since things are cleared up, I’ll be leaving first. Please talk to Bai Jing."

After speaking, Zhou Guangsheng went back to the military base.

He had thought that by going to Bai Jing’s house to clarify things so decisively, there would no longer be any future troubles. Yet who knew, Bai Jing had no intention of letting him go.

The next morning, he got up very early, thinking Fang Xiu must be eagerly waiting for him to pick up their marriage certificate. He couldn’t let Fang Xiu wait too long.

But little did he know, as he rode his bicycle leaving the base, just less than a mile away at the crossroads, he saw Bai Jing about to cross the road, holding a child in her arms, clearly her destination was the military base.

His instinct told him Bai Jing must be coming to find him. He hesitated about whether to go over. He had initially thought to ignore Bai Jing, considering today was the day he was marrying Fang Xiu, a great day, and everything else could wait until after the wedding.

However, he thought about the trouble it would cause at the military base if Bai Jing really made a scene. Not only would it be troublesome for the base’s leaders, but also the impact would be bad.

So, after some thought, Zhou Guangsheng still went towards Bai Jing.

Bai Jing, seeing Zhou Guangsheng, waved at him happily. When Zhou Guangsheng walked up to her, she immediately tried to hand the child to him, while saying, "Guangsheng, look at the child, she’s your daughter, she looks so pretty, you’ll definitely like her."

Zhou Guangsheng didn’t take the child but stepped back instead, looking at Bai Jing with some helplessness, "Bai Jing, what exactly do you want? I’ve said all that can be said. If you keep pestering me like this, there’s nothing I can do."

Hearing this, Bai Jing’s smile froze, then her expression suddenly became extremely fierce. Looking at Zhou Guangsheng, she yelled, "What do I want? I want you to remarry me, I want us to raise this child together. I won’t allow you to marry Fang Pingying’s sister, I won’t let the Fang Family have a good life."

Zhou Guangsheng pondered upon Bai Jing’s words and suddenly noticed something—Bai Jing didn’t seem to be targeting him or Fang Xiu, but was deliberately going after Fang Pingying. She didn’t even remember Fang Xiu’s name, only that she was Fang Pingying’s sister.

Zhou Guangsheng thought for a moment, remembering the slim involvement between Fang Pingying and Bai Jing, he frowned and said, "Bai Jing, Fang Pingying has never wronged you. Whatever grievances there are between you two, it was your fault. Any woman couldn’t tolerate another woman coveting her man, besides, after Fang Pingying found out about the situation back then, she didn’t do anything to you. Why do you seem to have a problem with her?"

Zhou Guangsheng’s words struck a nerve, and Bai Jing, enraged and embarrassed, irrationally said, "I don’t care. I just don’t like seeing her, and by extension, I don’t like her family either. I won’t let them have a good life."

Then she pointed at Zhou Guangsheng, "Just tell me, are you really going to marry her sister?"

"Yes." Zhou Guangsheng replied with unwavering certainty.

Bai Jing nodded at Zhou Guangsheng and muttered, "Fine, fine, then today I’ll die for you to see, I’ll take this child and die together..."

As she spoke, she rushed toward the road, right as a private car sped by.

Zhou Guangsheng was a soldier, even if it wasn’t Bai Jing but a stranger, holding an innocent child in her arms, he couldn’t just watch her lose her life; he lunged forward, pushing Bai Jing and the child away, and then the car hit him head-on.

Watching him fall, Bai Jing panicked, not knowing what to do. She looked around and suddenly ran off, child in arms.

The driver who hit Zhou Guangsheng, seeing no one around, also drove off in a panic.

Fortunately, there were still some vehicles passing by on this road, and after someone noticed, they got out of their car, then called the police.

After hearing about the accident from Zhou Guangsheng, Fang Xiu got even more infuriated. She pushed away the hand Zhou Guangsheng was holding hers with, and angrily said, "You knew Bai Jing did it on purpose, why did you still go to save her and end up like this? I think you still can’t let go of the past with her."

Zhou Guangsheng felt helpless, "Xiu’er, don’t be ridiculous, I am a soldier, and a soldier has his duties. I couldn’t just watch a living person get hit by a car, right?"

Fang Xiu couldn’t understand, "But Bai Jing just watched you get hit, right? And after you were hit, she didn’t even think about saving you and just ran away."

"Bai Jing..." Zhou Guangsheng hesitated, then said, "Bai Jing has emotional problems, actually it’s her parents who can’t bear to let her go, otherwise, someone like her should really be sent to a psychiatric hospital for treatment."
