"Stop crying, get some rest. Who knows, you might not be discharged by the time Aju is discharged."

Wu Yixing joked to lighten the mood.

Fu Wen then managed to hold back her tears.

"Xiaowen, what do you want to eat for lunch? I'll go to the cafeteria and get it for you."

Fu's mother's voice rang out from the doorway. She walked into the ward carrying a kettle of hot water and paused for a moment when she saw Nan Shu and the other person.

"Mr. Wu, Miss Nan."

Madam Fu nodded to the two of them, which was considered a greeting.

Wu Yixing looked apologetic.

"Fu Wen's mother, I'm so sorry. If it weren't for me, Fu Wen wouldn't have suffered like this today..."

Wu Yixing already knew that the other party's target was either him or Fu Wen, and Fu Wen had encountered danger near Guanghua Community. Clearly, the other party's primary target was actually him.

Fu Wen... he took the blame for him.

Upon hearing this, Madam Fu pursed her lips and remained silent. Of course, she knew that the real culprits were Cao Xi and her companion, but as a mother, she had genuinely been worried and frightened during that time yesterday, and it was impossible for her not to feel resentment.

"Brother Wu, what are you saying? This has nothing to do with you. It's all because those people are too arrogant."

Fu Wen, on the contrary, felt fortunate.

Fortunately, it was him. Otherwise, with his old arms and legs, Brother Wu really wouldn't have been able to withstand those people's abuse. Who knows, before they even hit him with a stick, Brother Wu's arms and legs might have dislocated on their own.

Wu Yixing didn't speak, but just looked at Fu's mother. Fu's mother glanced at her son and sighed softly, "Xiaowen is right. Mr. Wu, don't feel too guilty. The bad people are too bad. No one could have imagined that this would happen."

Wu Yixing took out a red envelope from his bag and handed it to Fu's mother, saying, "In any case, this is my token of my appreciation, and I hope you won't refuse it."

Fu's mother was taken aback. Just as she was about to refuse, Wu Yixing stuffed the red envelope into her hand and then quickly put both hands into his pockets, giving Fu's mother no room to refuse.

"Brother Wu, what are you doing?"

Fu Wen panicked upon seeing this.

"Consider it your nutrition fee. Don't you know how much you can eat?"

Fu Wen: ...

As the saying goes, a half-grown boy can bankrupt his father. Fu Wen's father died in a car accident, and his mother raised him alone. The hardships she endured are unimaginable.

Raising a child is difficult enough for an old man, let alone for a single mother.

not to mention.

It's not just about his feelings...

Wu Yixing glanced quickly at Nan Shu, then looked away.

Anyway, Madam Fu is determined to accept this money today.

Upon hearing this, Madam Fu hesitated for a moment, but still accepted the gift.

Wu Yixing is right. Xiaowen is sick and needs to eat something nutritious. She has to take care of Fuwen now, so she has to put the stall on hold. She can manage, but Fuwen can't.

"Thank you, Mr. Wu..."

Madam Fu paused, then looked at Nan Shu, "And Miss Nan."

She had seen everything Wu Yixing had just done.

Nan Shu smiled and said, "Auntie, you're too kind."

Looking at Nan Shu's smile, Fu's mother was a little stunned.

Just then, Li Feng's phone rang. He answered it, said a few words, hung up, and looked at Nan Shu. "Xiao Nan, Captain Nan is coming over soon. He wants to know if you want to go back together?"

Nan Shu was taken aback. "My brother... is Captain Nan also in this hospital?"

"Um...hey you, this hospital's psychiatry department is quite famous in Hangzhou."

Li Feng's words were veiled, but Nan Shu immediately understood.

After chatting with Fu Wen for a while, Nan Punian appeared at the door of the ward.

"Xiaoshu."

"police officer!"

Upon seeing Nan Punian, Fu Wen became excited and said to his mother, "Mom, this is the police officer I told you about yesterday who single-handedly saved me. He's incredibly capable."

Her words and expression were filled with admiration and worship for Nan Punian. When Madam Fu saw Nan Punian, she was stunned again.

"Mother?!"

Fu Wen called out a few times before his mother came to her senses. "Officer Nan, thank you for saving Xiao Wen."

Nan Punian glanced at Madam Fu with a probing look, then nodded slightly. "You're too kind. It's our duty."

"Well... it's getting late, and we've almost finished taking your statements. Xiaowen, you're still recovering, so please get some rest. We won't disturb you any longer."

Li Feng stood up.

Fu Wen was still somewhat unsatisfied.

Compared to Fu's mother's lingering fear about the kidnapping, Fu Wen felt more excitement and novelty. The events of the past two days seemed to have opened a door in Fu Wen's heart.

Fu Wen thought that maybe he could take advantage of his youth to join the army and then come back to study law.

The dreams and future that were previously somewhat uncertain seem to become clear at this moment.

……

Without the Feng family's backing, all the dirty deeds that Cao Xi and his wife had done were exposed.

In particular, the victims who were persecuted by them but dared not speak out were able to file a joint complaint.

All in all, spending four or five years in jail shouldn't be a problem.

Just as the branch was sorting through various trivial reports and cases...

Two big news stories have emerged from the Hangzhou elite family circle.

First, Nan's Construction declared bankruptcy, and most of the Nan family's assets were used as collateral for liquidation.

When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down; when a drum is broken, everyone beats it. With the Nan family in such a state of collapse, the companies that had previously cooperated with the Nan family all cut ties and secretly set up many obstacles, making Nan Yanhui increasingly anxious and overwhelmed.

Nan Yanhui's abilities were limited to begin with. When Nan Jianye was still alive, he was in charge of the rear, and Nan Yanhui was already struggling to be the general manager, let alone now.

The family moved out of the villa and experienced hardships they had never known before.

second…

"Feng Jian'an and his wife divorced."

This is indeed quite surprising.

"Is the Feng family deciding to completely sever ties?"

Nan Shu raised an eyebrow. In order not to offend the Nan family, Feng Jianye was really going all out.

"That's right. After all, his wife is a doting brother and sister-in-law. I heard that the couple had a big fight because of Cao Xi and Cao Bao."

"Cao Bao? Wasn't he hospitalized?"

This person is quite the troublemaker.

"He was looking for someone to vent his anger on as soon as he was discharged from the hospital, but he didn't expect to run into a tough nut to crack, so he was sent straight back to the hospital."

"How do you know so clearly?"

Nan Shu was puzzled.

"My mom, of course. The Nan family isn't what it used to be. Before, everyone was trying to curry favor with her, but now the tables have turned. Those rich ladies love to hear gossip, so she takes the initiative to collect it. That's how I found out."

Nan Shu remained silent for a few seconds after hearing this.

"How are you doing?"

"good."

Nan Wan flipped through her textbooks to prepare for her lesson. "I only go back on weekends. I stay in the teachers' dormitory during the weekdays. My brother is handling things at the company."

The Nan family has indeed declined, but even a starved camel is bigger than a horse.

No matter how bad things are now, for Nan Wan, it's just going back to square one. Besides, she now has a job, savings, and a small house, which is much better than before she returned to the Nan family. She's content.

"By the way, my mom might come to see you in the next few days... Be careful."

That was Nan Wan's real purpose for making the call.

She just couldn't understand why Wu Lanfang could be so naive. To be honest, if she were Nan Shu, she probably wouldn't even talk to herself, let alone Wu Lanfang. (End of Chapter)
