Chapter 749: Chapter 749: That’s Not What You Said Just Now
When Chi Jianshan heard the news and ran out, Chi Yue and Chu Shuo had already driven off.
Chi Jianshan grabbed the nearest police officer, asking them to follow him to the hospital.
Some matters are more convincing with the police present.
In the car, Chi Yue hugged Fu Mianmian, her eyes bloodshot, yet she persevered in calling out Fu Mianmian’s name, hoping to wake her up.
At the hospital, Chu Shuo carried Fu Mianmian into the emergency room, where she was quickly sent for examination and treatment.
Waiting outside the emergency room, Chi Yue’s body remained tense.
Chu Shuo made several calls by the window, then walked over to her side, "She’ll be okay, the examination didn’t reveal any injuries, she probably just ate something, a stomach wash should take care of it."
Chi Yue clutched the hem of her clothes tightly, "Chu Shuo, once Mianmian is discharged, help me get a divorce."
She truly couldn’t carry on with this marriage anymore.
Chu Shuo agreed, "Okay, once Mianmian recovers, I’ll arrange it for you."
Hurried footsteps echoed down the hallway; it was Chi Jianshan arriving with the police.
Seeing Chi Yue in a bad state, Chu Shuo joined Chi Jianshan in explaining the examination results to her.
But since Fu Mianmian was only four years old, there were still uncertainties about potential complications following her stomach being pumped, all of which had to be considered.
Chi Jianshan, at a loss, "Yueyue, you stay here, I’ll go to the police station with the officers to find out why that person hid Mianmian."
It should have been Chi Yue going, but Chi Jianshan worried she couldn’t control her emotions, and he also worried about Fu Mianmian waking up and looking for Chi Yue; his absence would be less impactful.
Chi Yue stared blankly at the emergency room, lost in thought.
It was Chu Shuo who spoke for her, "Uncle, go ahead, I’ll stay here with her."
"Ah, I appreciate it."
Not long after Chi Jianshan left, Fu Mianmian was brought out.
She hadn’t awakened yet, the doctor said it was due to an overdose of medication, and she might not have woken up had it been any later. Her life was saved, and once she awakened, they would conduct a blood test; as long as the indicators were normal, there should be no problems.
Chi Yue knew, this was a stroke of luck amidst the misfortune.
After settling Fu Mianmian in, Chi Yue sat beside the bed in a daze.
It was when his phone rang for the fifth time that Chi Yue spoke up.
"You should go back, I can handle things here."
Chu Shuo had work to do, and he couldn’t be too irresponsible about not taking care of it. He said, "I’ll come back after I’ve dealt with it. Want me to call Nan Bingyu over?"
Chi Yue declined, "No, she has two kids."
"But Xi Yihang is there, right?"
Chi Yue thought for a while, then said, "You go, I’ll call Fu Hanyan over."
It was a coincidence that she was in Nancheng, and calling her over was also because there were some things she needed to discuss with her in advance.
"Okay, you make the call. I’ll step out to answer this call, and I’ll leave once she gets here," he said.
Chi Yue clenched her phone in silence.
A friend was proving to be stronger than that so-called father; so what was the point of keeping him around?
Chi Yue called Fu Hanyan, and upon hearing that Fu Mianmian was in the hospital, Fu Hanyan didn’t hesitate to leave her house.
After Chu Shuo finished his call, he returned to the ward, and seeing Chi Yue’s poor condition, he pulled up a chair to sit in front of her.
"Don’t make decisions at night, don’t make rash decisions when faced with difficulties; every decision you make now is related to your future."
Chi Yue’s lips barely moved, "But what’s the point of persisting any longer?"
"At the end of the day, aren’t you just upset because of his attitude on the phone? The Old Fifth that I know isn’t that kind of person, there must be some misunderstanding. How about this, when he gets back, you two talk it over properly?"
Chi Yue glanced at him indifferently, "Chu Shuo, that’s not what you just said. Plus, once I get divorced, I’ll be able to help you."
"That’s a completely different matter," he replied.
Just then, Chu Shuo’s phone began to ring again. He looked at the caller ID but didn’t pick up immediately.
