...
After Sheng Yu's nosebleed stopped, her forehead was also scraped, turning red and purple, which looked shocking. She definitely needed to be taken to the hospital for treatment.
Liang Shi immediately knelt down to comfort Lingdang, "Don't cry..."
"Liang Wenxuan." Sheng Yu's nose was stuffed up, and her voice was muffled. She had just cried, and her words were still choked with sobs, but she still called out, "Don't cry! I didn't scold you!"
Bell cried and apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Sheng Yu looked up and said, "My head hurts, but... your crying makes it hurt even more."
The bell stopped crying instantly, but she was still sobbing.
Liang Shi quickly changed his clothes, intending to take Sheng Yu to the children's hospital to treat her wound and see if she needed another X-ray, since she had bumped her head.
Bell said she wanted to go too.
Only Su Yao and Rainbow remained at home.
Su Yao was also worried, but Xu Qingzhu said it was too cold at night, so she went to check nearby and would be back soon. She told Su Yao to call her if anything happened.
Su Yao then stopped following.
After getting into the car, both children had red, swollen eyes from crying, with Shengyu doing a little better than Lingdang.
Lingdang had been crying for a whole day and night and had finally gotten a little better. Now that Shengyu was hurt again, she felt extremely guilty and remorseful. She kept apologizing to Shengyu in the car.
Sheng Yu covered her mouth, "You're so annoying, Liang Wenxuan."
Sheng Yu spoke in a childish voice, but with a hint of arrogance, "I slipped and fell, why do you keep apologizing? You pushed me because I lost my balance, I'm not like a two-year-old. Humph!"
Bell was amused by her expression.
At least she stopped crying.

The nearby pediatric hospital is only a five-minute drive away, the same hospital where the little boy from yesterday came.
According to Sun Meirou, the other party was worried about potential long-term effects and needed to stay in the hospital for observation for five days, with the Liang family naturally covering the costs.
Sun Meirou felt it was unreasonable at the time, but Qiu Zimin didn't want Liang Xinran to be mistreated, and since it was just a matter of spending a little money, she naturally accepted it.
The advantage of living close to the medical university is that there are many different types of hospitals nearby. The affiliated children's hospital of the medical university is the best children's hospital in Haizhou City, and inpatient beds are in high demand.
That little boy really was a waste of medical resources.
After all, how hard could a small cart possibly hit?
Liang Shi wasn't in the mood to look at that right now.
There were few people at the hospital at this time. Liang Shi carried Sheng Yu into the hospital, while Xu Qingzhu went to register.
The two went upstairs to the hospital department together. When they were registering, the other party reminded them to hurry up because it was almost time for the shift change and there would be a 10-15 minute gap. So Liang Shi practically carried Sheng Yu upstairs. Even though he was an Alpha with good stamina, he was still out of breath carrying Sheng Yu upstairs.
But we arrived just in time; the doctor was still in his office.
The other person was taking off their white coat. Liang Shi placed Sheng Yu on a chair. "Doctor, the child bumped her head. Could you please treat her wound?"
As she was speaking, the other person put on the white coat that was halfway off, then turned around, and Liang Shi suddenly stopped talking.
Upon seeing her, Shen Hui was also surprised, but she took out a mask from her pocket and put it on. Without speaking to her, she walked directly to Sheng Yu's side, smiled at Sheng Yu, and her eyes curved into a friendly smile. "Little friend, how did you run into her?"
“I fell to the ground,” Sheng Yu said. “I hit the floor.”
Shen Hui first examined her wound, took out some disinfectant from the cabinet, pulled up a chair and sat down in front of Sheng Yu, and said gently, "Auntie will treat your wound now. If it hurts, you can grab Auntie's sleeve. Don't cry, or you won't be pretty."
Sheng Yu bit her lip, fear flashing in her eyes, but she still bravely agreed: "Okay."
Xu Qingzhu, who came up after Liang Shi, stood at the door and didn't see Shen Hui. Seeing Sheng Yu sitting there obediently while the doctor treated her wound, she asked Liang Shi, "What did the doctor say? Is it serious?"
Liang Shi shook his head: "I don't know yet."
“It’s not serious.” Shen Hui’s clear and cold voice rang out. “He just bumped into something. It might swell up tomorrow, so I’ll get it treated first. If you’re worried about something going wrong, then when you come to change the dressing tomorrow, you can go to the neurology department for a CT scan to see if there’s any blood clot in his brain. But it should be fine. It’s normal for kids to bump into things.”
"It hurts..." Sheng Yu whispered, almost crying.
Lingdang quickly went over and took her hand, "I'm sorry..."
Sheng Yu snorted, "Liang Wenxuan, you're apologizing again."
Bell lowered her head guiltily.
"Did you knock her down?" Shen Hui's voice was very gentle when she talked to the child, just like a kindergarten teacher coaxing a child.
Lingdang nodded in agreement, but Shengyu said, "I fell down by myself."
"You're really brave," Shen Hui said. "Most kids would cry if they got bumped like that."
Sheng Yu replied haughtily, "I'm not an ordinary kid!"
"Really? You're amazing!" Shen Hui praised, but her hands moved steadily as she applied the bandage.
Xu Qingzhu finally recognized her voice and whispered in Liang Shi's ear, "Is she Zhao Xuning's ex-girlfriend?"
Liang Shi nodded, "Yes."
Xu Qingzhu clicked her tongue, "She's a completely different person when she's working."
Xu Qingzhu had seen her aloof and distant demeanor before, as well as her charming smile, and she had even greeted her and apologized to her in a friendly manner.
But when she's working, Shen Hui radiates maternal warmth; she's very gentle, and the children love chatting with her.
Liang Shi nodded in agreement with her words, but still didn't quite understand and said, "I feel like she hates me, why?"
Xu Qingzhu didn't understand either; she had just come in. She simply guessed, "Could it be because of Zhao Xuning?"
“That shouldn’t be the case,” Liang Shi said. “If she hates someone because she hates them, shouldn’t she also hate you? But she’s very friendly to you.”
Xu Qingzhu: "..."
She was silent for a moment, then leaned close to Liang Shi's ear and blew a breath, "Maybe it's because I'm pretty."
Liang Shi: "?"
“She used to say she liked beautiful women,” Xu Qingzhu said.
Liang Shi: "..."
Is it because her looks don't match?
However, the two only whispered a few words before Shen Hui quickly finished and also took care of Sheng Yu's nosebleed, patiently and gently.
After finishing her work, she took off her mask and realized there was another person in the ward. She was stunned for a moment when she saw who it was and asked incredulously, "Did you two come together?"
Xu Qingzhu nodded: "What a coincidence, we meet again."
Shen Hui nodded. "What a coincidence."
She looked exhausted; she had a long day at work and I had no intention of catching up with her.
She conveniently ignored Liang Shi, who was standing next to her.
Indeed, Xu Qingzhu also sensed Shen Hui's hostility towards Liang Shi.
It's inexplicable.
Just as Shen Hui was about to take off her white coat and leave work, the door was pushed open, and a woman rushed in breathlessly, saying, "Dr. Shen, please come quickly, my son has a fever."
Shen Hui paused, let out a barely perceptible sigh, and resignedly buttoned up her white coat. "Let's go."
She had just taken a step when the woman suddenly saw the bell standing to the side and cursed through gritted teeth, "You dare to come here?! You slut!"
Upon hearing this, Lingdang shrank back, tears falling but she dared not cry out loud.
The expressions of the adults in the office all changed simultaneously.
Chapter 97
People who are used to being polite don't swear.
Just like Liang Shi, whose dirtiest words were "trash" and "disgusting," when a woman said those words to him, he felt his blood rush to his head and wanted to curse back, but he didn't know what to say.
He could only stand in front of the bell to protect her, coldly watching the woman.
Xu Qingzhu was stunned for a second, but the first to react was Sheng Yu, who had a bandage on her forehead and said arrogantly, "You ugly monster! Who are you calling a monster?!"
The woman was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "So, you actually brought a whole bunch of people with you! Let me tell you! You little brat, if anything happens to my son, I will never let you off the hook!"
Shut up!
Liang Shi and Xu Qingzhu roared at the same time, their voices carrying a chilling, stern tone.
The office fell silent for a moment, and the woman's face showed surprise, as if she hadn't expected the other party to talk back.
Moreover, she subconsciously shivered, intimidated by the two men's imposing presence.
But after a short while, she shouted again, "What? Trying to bully the few with the many of you! Let me tell you, if my son dies, I'll tear her to pieces too! You little bastard!"
The bell shrank back slightly, and Liang Shi reached out and covered the bell's ears.
Xu Qingzhu stood there, her brows furrowing even more, and said coldly, "Are you ever going to stop?"
The woman was shorter than Xu Qingzhu, and when the two looked at each other, she was already at a significant disadvantage in terms of presence, not to mention Xu Qingzhu's cold eyes.
The woman avoided Xu Qingzhu's gaze and continued arrogantly, "What? She can do it, but I can't say anything? This little bitch..."
"Smack—"
Xu Qingzhu slapped the woman across the face, the sound crisp and clear, abruptly interrupting her words.
Xu Qingzhu doesn't know how to swear, and she certainly wouldn't do something like swearing back at a child with vulgar language, but she was really furious.
Liang Shi had already told her that Lingdang had cried for a whole day and night because of this. She was usually such a cheerful child, but now she was timid and hesitant.
What's more, there are two children standing here, both of whom have been pampered since childhood. Who among them has ever suffered such injustice?
"Shut up." Xu Qingzhu withdrew her numb palm and said coldly, "If something happens to your son, and it's found out that it's our responsibility, we're willing to bear the consequences no matter what it takes. But now, please shut up and stop barking like a mad dog in front of a child."
The woman's face quickly turned red. She opened her mouth as if to curse, but her mind went blank for a moment.
She never expected that the other party would slap her directly.
They were clearly the ones who did something wrong; she had only said a few words...
