Shen Qi was taken to an office by Ye Moxuan. When she was wondering how he could walk in so casually, she heard a familiar voice.
“Why are you here?”
Hearing that, Shen Qi found out that the person who was inside the office was actually Song An.
She didn’t expect that she could see her here, and suddenly, Shen Qi felt that Ye Moxuan’s aunt was always there around them.
“Oh my gosh! Qi, why are you hurt to this extent?” Song An looked terrified when she saw Shen Qi’s injuries.
Her reaction was much greater than the time when she saw Shen Qi’s Chinese medicine. After all, this time she was covered in injuries from head to toe—there were some wounds on her face, neck, arms, and legs. The way Shen Qi looked right now was horrifying. She looks as if she has escaped from being raped.
“Ye Moxuan, didn’t I tell you before that you should protect your wife properly? Is this how you protect her?”
Ye Moxuan was speechless upon hearing that.
After hearing Song An’s accusation, Ye Moxuan also felt that he hadn’t done a good job of protecting her. He didn’t think too much about what had happened previously, but this time around, she was covered in injuries. Ye Moxuan’s expression darkened as he said in a cold voice, “Treat her first.”
“Of course I will. But first, you have to get out.” Song An made Shen Qi stay back and drove Ye Moxuan out. Then, she closed the door before treating Shen Qi’s injuries.
“Take off all your clothes. Let me see what the wounds are like.”
As Shen Qi had already taken her clothes off in front of Song An before, she didn’t hesitate too much this time and immediately unbuttoned her clothes. When she took off her clothes, she even felt her skin hurt.
“Wait!” Song An ordered, and she stepped forward to take a look. “Who did this to you? It’s so serious that your clothes are stuck inside the wound. Don’t pull it out forcefully. Let me help you.”
Shen Qi couldn’t see what her back looked like, so she could only let Song An help her. Although she was very careful when she was tugging at her clothes, Shen Qi still frowned in pain and bit her lower lip so that she wouldn’t scream out loud.
After a while, Song An said, “It’s done”
It was only then Shen Qi could take off her clothes. Looking at her back, Song An couldn’t help but close her eyes. Then, she told her to sit still before turning around to get the medicine.
When Song An went out to get the medicine, she gave Ye Moxuan who was sitting outside a kick.
Ye Moxuan felt the pain, but he could only frown.
“I shall let you go this time. Why don’t you enter and see for yourself how heavily injured she is?” Song An walked away to get medicine after she finished speaking, leaving Ye Moxuan behind.
Ye Moxuan just sat there for a moment, remembering how Shen Qi looked like just now. In fact, by looking at her exposed wounds, he already knew that the wounds that were hidden from his eyes were much more serious.
Song An came back after retrieving the medicine and found that Ye Moxuan was still sitting there motionless. “You are such a fool!”
With that, she entered the office directly. Ye Moxuan had been waiting outside the door, and at the same time, he was also waiting for news from Xiao Su.
After Song An had disinfected Shen Qi’s wounds, she treated them with medicine. A long period of time had gone by before they were finished. Shen Qi was still worried about Shi Qinbao’s situation. When Song An announced that everything was done, she quickly took her clothes, put them on, and slipped out of bed.
“I can’t thank you enough for helping me so many times.”
“Don’t worry about it—we’re family after all. This is nothing! By the way, you can’t touch water for the time being, and you have to apply the medicine onto your skin every day.”
Shen Qi nodded when she heard her instructions. “Okay, I will be careful.”
“Apart from the injuries on your body, do you feel any discomfort?”
Hearing that, Shen Qi was taken aback, but she didn’t feel any uncomfortable sensations on the other parts of her body.
“All right. Judging from your expression, you’re probably fine, but you still have to take care of yourself. After all, you are pregnant. Try to avoid such situations in the future.”
Someone had reminded her about her pregnancy again—Shen Qi almost forgot about it too. At that point in time, she just felt that if that group of women wanted a fight, she would definitely give them what they wanted. She had no idea when she became so impulsive because in the beginning, she really wanted to make peace. However, who knew that everything would spiral out of control afterward.
“Okay, I understand.” Shen Qi nodded. She really had to keep this in mind in the future.
Seeing that she wanted to leave, Song An couldn’t help but persuade her. “Why don’t you stay here and rest awhile? I’m going to have an operation soon. After that, I’ll check if your wounds have any inflammation when I’m back.”
“But—”
“As for the things that you worry about, I’ll talk to Mo Xuan about them.”
Shen Qi replied, “All right. Thank you very much, Aunty!”
Ye Moxuan stayed outside for a long time. After some time, Xiao Su told him that the woman delivered her child safely by undergoing a cesarean section, but the child was a girl. At that moment, Lin Jiang was in a mess, but fortunately, both the mother and child were safe, so Shen Qi didn’t have to worry anymore.
It was true that Shen Qi didn’t need to worry, but now, they had to worry about hurting Shi Qinbao to this extent. It wasn’t something that an apology could solve.
“Got it. Send a few people to stand guard there, and go find out the whole story.”
As soon as he hung up the phone, Ye Moxuan saw Song An coming out. He pursed his thin lips and asked, “How are her injuries?”
“Wow, you still know how to care about her? I thought you didn’t want your wife and child anymore!”
Hearing that, Ye Moxuan frowned. “Who said I didn’t want them?”
“Then, what are you doing?” Song An questioned. “Last time, I’ve already told you—as a man, you must protect your wife, but what have you been doing?”
“I don’t know what she did,” Ye Moxuan replied in annoyance. “And she has been acting abnormally recently.”
“Oh? How so? Why don’t you tell me?”
Ye Moxuan glanced at his aunt. Since his mother passed away, Song An had been the only relative to him. Something was bothering him, but he didn’t know who he could rely on.
Perhaps it could be solved after talking to Song An.
Thinking of this, Ye Moxuan’s eyes darkened. After a while, he told Song An about Shen Qi’s recent performance.
After she finished listening, Song An slightly narrowed eyes into long slits. “So? Are you unhappy that she’s behaving normally?”
“It’s strange,” Ye Moxuan pursed his lips and replied unhappily.
“It is weird.” Song An nodded before sneering at him suddenly. “But have you ever thought about the reason why she became so strange? As your aunt, I can tell you clearly that women are sentimental and sensitive. For her to suddenly act like this, she must have made a decision, or you’ve done something that disappointed her, or you’ve said something that had changed her. Normally, a person wouldn’t change that easily. Why don’t you think about what you’ve done?”
What have I done?
Ye Moxuan pursed his lips, not knowing what he had done.
“Anyway, to be honest with you, since you are already married to her, you have to spend time with her unless you really want a divorce.”
