A fait accompli?
When Hsu Mingwei suddenly said this, Shen Xiaofeng felt completely embarrassed. She wanted to find a hole to hide in.
In that era, having an affair before marriage was a despicable thing. Furthermore, this was exposed in front of Yun Jingqi, especially after Shen Xiaofeng had just invited Yun Laohu over to visit her daughter …
This …
What did this mean?
Her daughter had become a "fait accompli" woman. How could she still have the face to stay by Yun Jingting's side?
Shen Xiaofeng's face flushed red. She lowered her voice and reprimanded, "Hsu Mingwei, don't talk nonsense. My daughter is a pure and innocent young lady!"
Even though she said this, she knew in her heart … that this was most likely the truth.
Hsu Mingwei did not argue back. He lifted his chin confidently … To be honest, he was afraid that this matter would not be serious enough. "Director, this matter concerns Tingting's and my reputation. How could I talk nonsense? If you don't believe me, you can ask her whether this matter really happened or not. However, please don't worry. I will take responsibility. I will definitely marry her! "
"Shut up!"
Shen Xiaofeng's face darkened. She looked like she was about to explode in anger. However, she was the director of a hospital after all. She had to have self-control in her own territory.
She took a deep breath and her face gradually calmed down. Her voice also became softer as she tried to appease him. "Hsu Mingwei, now is not the time to talk about marriage. I think we should talk about this in private. Why don't we have a family meeting after Tingting's condition stabilizes a little?"
Family meeting?
Did that mean that she was admitting that he was part of the family?
Hsu Mingwei nodded happily. "Director Shen, you are right! The reason why I brought up the matter of marriage now is to let you know that no matter what happens to Tingting, even if she can't dance anymore, in my heart, she's still the most beautiful. I'm still going to marry her. "
She can't dance anymore?
Hsu Mingwei was a doctor himself. After looking at the X-ray, he naturally understood the severity of the injury.
Shen Xiaofeng said calmly, "I still say the same thing. Let's talk about this later! There was no rush! Look, it's getting late. You should go back and rest. My housekeeper is already here. She and I will take care of Tingting. You don't have to worry! "
Hsu Mingwei straightened his shoulders and insisted, "At such a critical moment, I should stay with her Tingting and give her moral support!"
Shen Xiaofeng was getting impatient. "Hsu Mingwei, you're only causing trouble for everyone here. Listen to me, I'm your leader. I order you to leave now! If you don't leave, don't blame me … "
After all, she was the director of the hospital and had accumulated a lot of power. She was also Jiang Tingting's mother. No matter from which perspective, she had the right to ask Hsu Mingwei to leave.
Hsu Mingwei wanted to insist, but when he saw Shen Xiaofeng's determined expression, he could only give up. Before he left, he added, "Then … I'll send Tingting food tomorrow morning!"
He completely regarded himself as her fiancé. To put it bluntly, he almost called Shen Xiaofeng "Mom."
Director Shen waved his hand and did not say much to him. He pulled Yun Jingqi into the ward.
Jiang Tingting was lying on the hospital bed with her leg wrapped in a cast. When she saw Yun Jingqi, she cried and held her hand. "Second Sister, I can't go to the Capital City to perform! It's a performance for the chief. All the artists in the country will be there. I've been looking forward to it for a long time … "
She did not mention whether she could dance in the future. She kept repeating these two sentences as if she had already become Xianglin's sister-in-law.
Yun Jingqi had no choice but to comfort her. "Everything will be fine in the future. Everything will be fine!"
She did not want to stay any longer. After sitting for a while, she left the ward and turned to ask, "Auntie Shen, about Tingting's injury … should I inform my father?"
Shen Xiaofeng sighed. "With her current condition, it's useless to inform anyone. She can only recover slowly. Thank you!"
She did not mention the matter of Yun Laohu anymore … She was too ashamed to mention it.
After watching Yun Jingqi leave the hospital, Shen Xiaofeng returned to her daughter's bedside. She tried to hold it in, but in the end, she could not hold it in. She pretended to casually peel oranges for her daughter and asked softly, "Tingting, was Hsu Mingwei there when you were injured? Why was he the one who sent you to the hospital? He even accompanied you in the ward. You're an unmarried woman. Isn't this bad for your health? "
When Jiang Tingting heard this, she gradually stopped crying and awkwardly ran her fingers through her hair. "Hmm? I asked him to leave, but … he refused to leave! "
Shen Xiaofeng was very sophisticated. When she heard this, her mind went blank. She could not help but complain softly, "Tingting, you're really muddle-headed. Even if … Sigh! Couldn't you have gone to another hospital? The military hospital is full of acquaintances. What would others say if they saw this? A girl's reputation is the most important thing! Unless you're planning to marry him? "
"I wasn't thinking …"
Tingting was too embarrassed to continue. Not only was she not planning to marry him, she even had sex with him. How could she say this out loud?
She covered her face and cried again.
Shen Xiaofeng took a deep breath. "Why are you crying? Let me ask you … What do you plan to do now? He said he'll come tomorrow morning. "
Jiang Tingting gritted her teeth. "Mom, it's all Mi Xaing 'er's fault that I'm in this state today! She's the one who caused me to break my leg. She's the one who caused me to be unable to separate myself from Hsu Mingwei … "
Wasn't she being unreasonable?
She did not even reflect on herself. Instead, she pushed all the blame onto Mi Xaing 'er. Wasn't she being paranoid?
Shen Xiaofeng sat quietly at the side and waited for her daughter to calm down before saying, "I personally think … You and Hsu Mingwei aren't suitable. The difference in status and background is too big. Even if you force yourself to be together, there won't be a good ending!"
"…"
"Also, I feel that he's a bit too materialistic. After all, he's from the countryside …" Shen Xiaofeng coughed softly. She probably felt that these words did not match her identity, so she quickly added, "I didn't say that people from the countryside are bad. I'm saying that he's a bit impetuous and too eager to improve himself. Just like just now, he actually …"
Jiang Tingting looked up in a panic. "Mom? What did he say? He didn't say anything, right? Especially in front of Second Sister? "
Shen Xiaofeng shook her head helplessly. "Tingting, I've said it a hundred times. Don't fall in love with someone you shouldn't. Everything that happened to you today was because you took it one step at a time. At the end of the day … it's all because of your own foolishness!"
Considering that her daughter was still injured, she could not say too much. "Sigh! But no matter what you've done wrong, you're still my daughter. I have to protect you! How about this? Regarding your relationship with Hsu Mingwei, I suggest … you deal with it coldly first! I'll help you deal with it! Okay? "
Jiang Tingting nodded. She muttered to herself for a while and did not forget to add in a low voice, "Mom, I don't want to marry him. Living with someone like that for the rest of my life is my punishment!"
Shen Xiaofeng stood up and poured a glass of warm water for her daughter. "Don't talk anymore. Have a good rest. I know what you mean!"
There was silence in the ward. Both mother and daughter had their own thoughts.
**
Time flew by so quickly …
On the last day of 1977 …
After lunch, the phone on Yun Jingting's desk rang. He hurriedly picked it up. It was Yun Jingqi on the other end. "Brother, I want to talk to you about something! Is it convenient? "
"Say it, it's convenient! Lao Wu isn't here! He took a leave of absence to attend his sister-in-law's school opening ceremony! "
Only then did Yun Jingqi lower her voice. "As per your instructions, I sent Gu Qianxing's information to the Public Security Bureau this morning, but I accidentally heard a piece of news … Gu Qianxing was arrested last night!"
Yun Laohu's voice was calm. "I know!"
He knew?
Yun Jingqi was not surprised … Although her brother had been out of reach for the past few years, he had been very concerned about Gu Qian Xing's affairs. "Brother! I heard that … a famous actress named Feng Xian came forward to sue him for murder! There's detailed information and a witness's signature. Gu Qian Xing can't escape this time! I also sent Mi Xaing 'er's information to the police. The two cases will be investigated simultaneously. The speed and probability of overturning the case will definitely be higher! "
She was a little excited. "How about this, I'll treat you to dinner tonight. See you there!"
Just as she put down the phone …
The ringtone suddenly rang again …
Yun Longhu picked up the call. "Hello! I'm Yun Jingting! "
"Regiment Commander, it's me! Gu Dalong! "
Yun Jingting smiled. "What's up? Class Monitor Gu, what's the matter? "
Gu Dalong's voice was urgent and he spoke very quickly. "Let's make it short! I'm at the Medical University now. I'm in the middle of discussing military training matters. Guess who I saw? "
"How am I supposed to guess?"
Gu Dalong raised his voice by half an octave, as if he was afraid that Yun Jingting could not hear him clearly. "Regiment Commander, I saw Sister-in-law. Come quickly!"
