After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 289, Episode 0308: The Truth Behind Leng Sheng's Injury
"Second Uncle?"

Tragic, really miserable.

It was so tragic that Lin Yuexi could hardly bear to look.

Didn't you say you injured your leg? Why is your head wrapped up like an Indian's, and your face is bruised and swollen?

"Brother Xinghui".

This one isn't doing too well either. Although he wasn't injured, he looks like a demon who's been drained of yang energy.

When Leng Sheng saw that the person who came in was Lin Yuexi, he was happy and wanted to smile, but unfortunately, he pulled at the wound on the corner of his mouth and hissed in pain before he could even respond.

Leng Xinghui also laughed and was about to get up, but before he could even say hello, he heard his father's groan of pain. He hurriedly turned around to check on his father's condition.

"Dad, is your leg hurting again? I'll go call the doctor."

Lin Yuexi hurriedly entered, but Huo Han had already turned and left.

"It's alright, it's alright, don't worry, there's no need to call a doctor," Leng Sheng quickly called to his son.

He then turned to comfort his niece, "Don't worry, I just pulled on the wound on my lip, it's nothing serious."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the door to the ward was pushed open again, and Huo Han rushed in with two doctors.

Regardless of what Leng Sheng says, let's start with a thorough examination first.

Fortunately, there was no danger.

After about ten minutes, everyone was finally able to sit down and chat in a relatively comfortable manner.

"When did Xi Bao come back?"

Leng Sheng was a little embarrassed by the commotion he caused in front of his little niece, but fortunately, his face was bruised and swollen, so it wasn't noticeable.

"I arrived in Beijing the day before yesterday and reported to my workplace yesterday. Second Uncle, what's wrong with your injury...?"

Since it involved the issue of dignity, Lin Yuexi didn't ask too directly, but with injuries like these, it was unlikely that her second aunt had hit her.

Lin Yuexi thought of Jiang Zhe.

How could the Leng family allow themselves to be bullied for no reason?

Leng Sheng fell silent, seemingly reluctant to speak, or perhaps unsure of where to begin.

Leng Xinghui, standing to the side, couldn't hold back any longer. He gritted his teeth and said, as if suppressing his anger, "It was the Jiang family who did it."

The Jiang family?
Not just Jiang Zhe?
“That day, my mom called my dad and said that a thief had broken into the house and all the valuables had been stolen. She told my dad to come back and said that he didn’t need to bring anyone with him because the theft had happened several days ago. She was away on a business trip and hadn’t noticed. She said that they couldn’t find anything out now, and she just wanted my dad to come back and check.”

Leng Zhi and Jiang Zhiying's relationship had been in trouble for a long time. Leng Zhi practically lived in his company dormitory, and the couple had been living apart for a long time.

Jiang Zhiying is somewhat crazy. If Leng Zhi goes back, she goes berserk; if he doesn't come back for a while, she finds all sorts of reasons to make him come back.

And those reasons were varied, some even claiming that Leng Zhi had been kidnapped.

Jiang Zhiying's reason this time sounded very bizarre, but to Leng Zhi, it was nothing more than asking him to go back, make a scene again, and then have some quiet time in return, just going through the motions.

So Leng Zhi was caught off guard and went home alone. Little did he know that several men from the Jiang family were waiting at home. As soon as Leng Zhi entered, he was hit on the head with a stick and knocked down. He was then dragged into the house, where the men surrounded him and beat him mercilessly. Before Jiang Zhe left, he stomped on Leng Zhi's leg, which had just been broken, and crushed it to pieces.

After beating Leng Sheng, the Jiang family left with their doors wide open. It was only after a neighbor discovered that Leng Sheng was covered in blood that he was taken to the hospital.

Lin Yuexi grasped the key point: "Second Uncle, has Jiang Zhe from the Jiang family been promoted?"

Leng Sheng gave her an approving look. "If he hadn't been promoted, your second uncle would at least be a public servant. How dare they beat me so openly?"

She could only do what her third brother did, covering his face and putting a sack over his head.

Filled with righteous indignation, Leng Xinghui listened to the two's conversation with some confusion, "Dad, Xi Bao, even if Jiang Zhe got promoted, he doesn't have the right to hit people arbitrarily, does he?"

Leng Sheng glanced at him as if he were an idiot and ignored him.

This son is so stupid, he doesn't even really want to acknowledge him.

Lin Yuexi wasn't usually a talkative person, but seeing her second cousin's pitiful and aggrieved state after being hurt by their father, she touched her barely existing conscience and ended up saying a few more words.

"The committee has a different significance now. Let's not worry about this grudge for now. The main thing is to save Uncle Er."

The committee's existence is tacitly approved from above. If the current situation is to stabilize in the future, there are some things that the committee must do. When the time is right, the committee will no longer need to exist, which is an inevitable trend.

How could he not be angry that Leng Sheng was so badly injured?
The Leng family is a prominent family in Beijing. Hitting him is tantamount to slapping the Leng family in the face. Can he tolerate that?

He was still the deputy director of the branch office. He wasn't injured by criminals, but beaten up like this by Yue's family. How could he not feel aggrieved?
All things considered, isn't he the one who most wants revenge?
But why is Leng Sheng so calm?
Because he could see the situation clearly and understood that the committee's existence would not last long, he knew that when the time was right, he would take his revenge.

Now, he can endure it for the sake of the bigger picture!

Leng Sheng was increasingly envious of his third brother. Of his three sons, only the youngest was unreliable; the eldest and second eldest were both very promising. His only daughter was raised by the old man himself and was not only smart but also intelligent.

He then thought of his eldest brother's and fourth brother's daughters, who were fighting over clothes and jewelry. He had heard that his eldest brother's two daughters had even had a rather ugly argument over their dowries.

Compared to them, our beloved child, who has a heart full of love and shoulders heavy responsibilities for the country, shines like the brightest star in the sky.

Third brother, you're really lucky.

Lin Yuexi then handed the savings book her mother had given her to Leng Xinghui, saying, "This is what my mother asked me to use to treat my second uncle's injuries."

She turned to Leng Sheng shyly and said, "Second Uncle, please don't think it's too little."

The fact that his younger sister was in poor health was an impression etched into Leng Xinghui's very being. Therefore, from a young age, Leng Xinghui treated Lin Yuexi with the utmost care, as if she were a fragile glass ball.

Even though Lin Yuexi seems to be in good health now, he still hasn't changed his habit of being overly cautious around her. He didn't dare to return the savings book and play the game of giving her red envelopes back and forth.

He could only awkwardly hold the small notebook in one hand, looking to his father for help with a troubled expression.

Leng Sheng wasn't a chauvinist. His younger brother and sister-in-law were helping him out because they cared about him; there was nothing shameful about it.

Chao Lengxinghui nodded to him to accept the money, then turned to Lin Yuexi and asked, "Are your dad and mom doing alright? Life in the Northwest must be tough for them. Is your dad on the run right now?"

His tone even sounded quite expectant.

Lin Yuexi thought about her father's life in the Northwest, but didn't report the bad news. "My father usually eats in the army canteen most of the time. After the incident with the man surnamed Jin in the Corps, the supply chain of materials was disrupted. They mainly had to find their own food. Although they could get some, it was far from enough. As far as I know, the staple food in the canteen has been steamed buns mixed with bean dregs for more than half a year."

If only Leng Zhi was having a hard time, Leng Shengyi would surely be laughing out loud even though he was in pain. But hearing that the entire army was having a hard time, his heart...
"There are few mountains and a lot of desert in the Northwest, so it's not easy to grow grain, raise livestock, and even wild game is scarce. The soldiers stationed there suffer a lot."
