My Terrible Life in Those Years

Looking at my bandaged left arm, I chuckled at Aunt Shu and said, "Others are like Li the Iron-Crutch, I'm like Jiang the Iron-Armed!"

Aunt Shu had a pile of forms in her hands and was running up and down the hospital. She finally stopped, and I couldn't help but laugh at myself.

But she was secretly pleased. This was me, the whole company, the whole industry. Who else could make her run around like this, up and down?

Aunt Shu gave me a reproachful look: "You're still in the mood for jokes?"

I laughed even harder: "So what? They came for you, not me! Hey, I say, could this be considered a work-related injury?"

Aunt Shu almost slammed the order form into my hands: "Was this injury sustained at work? Does that count as a work-related injury?!"

I glared at him: "Even if it wasn't a work injury, isn't it a blow to our friendship? I got this blamed for something!"

Aunt Shu looked me up and down several times.

"Jiang Ning, you're now a full-time employee of a soon-to-be-listed company, earning at least several thousand yuan a month. Why are you still subconsciously calculating such trivial matters?"

I chuckled and said, "Alright, I understand. I won't haggle over the cost; you'll definitely cover everything!"

I continued, "I'm used to living frugally, so I have to be very careful with money for everything. I was just thinking, if it's so expensive, I'll just get a quick bandage and call it a day. My body will be fine in three to five days at most!"

"If you had said you would take responsibility earlier, I would have been relieved! I suddenly remembered, my hand injury is so bad, do I need to stay in the hospital for a few days?"

Seeing my initial obsequiousness followed by my subsequent rudeness, Aunt Shu was so angry that she wanted to kick me again.

At this point, I wasn't afraid she'd actually kick me; I had a get-out-of-jail-free card!

Sure enough, he lifted his foot and immediately pulled it back.

After all that commotion, she immediately felt a little more relaxed.

After a few minutes of silence, she asked, "You really didn't see who that person was?"

Ok? ? ?

"What do you mean?" I was extremely surprised. Did she think I knew who that person was, but just hadn't said so?

She looked closely into my eyes, while I stared blankly at her, completely oblivious.

Five seconds later, she looked away from my eyes.

"Yes, when you came, you helped me out of the car and then he hit me. I didn't have time or space to notice him at all. He ran away after hitting me, but I saw his back as he ran!"

Grandma Shu leaned forward.

Our seats were facing each other, two rows apart, very close together.

She came out in a set of extremely loose loungewear. When she spoke to me from my direction, my eyes were directly above hers. With just one glance, I could see the fancy lingerie she was wearing underneath, as well as her magnificent breasts.

Most of it was snow-white, completely transparent to my eyes.

I was stunned.

Auntie, can't you be a little more considerate? You know perfectly well that I have absolutely no resistance to this kind of "auntie" trait!

She didn't notice me. She kept her head down, holding the sheet in her hand, and whispered softly, as if afraid of being overheard.

She waited for me for a moment, and when she didn't hear my response, she looked up at me in surprise, and I immediately thought, "Oh no!"

Because at this point there was no time to look away.

She only snapped out of her daze when she saw me drooling and staring blankly at her chest.

He quickly pulled his clothes together, concealing the view of the mountain peaks.

This time, they showed no mercy and kicked me directly in the shin.

"What are you looking at? Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!" she said angrily. What kind of time is this? We were almost beaten to death, and you still have the mind to look around?

How could a normal person not feel embarrassed?

What's it like when you finally manage to copy a few answers during an exam, only to suddenly realize the proctor is right behind you?

How could that be? Am I that kind of person?

I easily processed the visual feast I'd just enjoyed, then cheerfully replied, "Finished looking? Oh, where were you? Did you say you saw a back view?"

She was a little angry.

How can you be so shameless? You've already seen it, and now you say you've finished watching it??

You little bastard, if you don't get a sty tomorrow, I'll eat my hat!

But they couldn't find a way to deal with me all of a sudden.

Given her status and position, it wouldn't be right for her to hit or beat me in a place like this, would it?

Besides, it's just a glance, I haven't lost anything!

That's just how I think!

"Hey, Manager Shu? You said you saw that person's back? Really?" I just remembered what she said.

Her chest was visibly heaving, clearly indicating that she was suppressing her anger.

Several seconds later, she gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, I saw him. I could sense it; I think I know him, and we're quite familiar!"

I was shocked. What? Someone I know did it?

My immediate reaction was: "Was it a crime of passion? Or a revenge killing? Or was it an attempt to rob and assault?"

Aunt Shu's chest heaved again, this time with even greater amplitude!

"Oh, oh, you said go on, who could it be?"

It was already past midnight, and there was no one else around them.

She pulled her clothes tighter, gave me a warning look, and then lowered her voice: "Can't you use your brain and think things through normally? Who have I offended lately?"

Me? Recently? Who did I offend?

Oh, it's you!

I've only known you for a few days, how would I know!

Just as I was about to retort, a name came to mind.

I was shocked!

He gestured with his finger to indicate the number two: "Two characters?"

She immediately understood, realizing that my guess was in the same direction as hers.

"Yes, what do you think?"

My heart tightened: "Have you confirmed this?"

"Seventy to eighty percent!"

If we can confirm 70-80%, that's practically the same as confirmation!

I also carefully recalled in my mind that fleeting figure and the series of events that happened, all aimed at Aunt Shu, not for killing, not for money, and not for lust!

Goodness, if it's true, then...

My mind raced: "So, what should we do? Why didn't you tell Officer Miao about this guess?"

She shook her head and waved her hand.

"We've just safely weathered the storm, and we can't afford any more negative developments. Although CEO Liu hasn't commented much on what happened a few days ago, he's probably not entirely satisfied."

"After all, once a company becomes famous, the probability of problems will increase significantly."

"Mr. Liu has always hoped to go public quietly, and then expand into other industries after the IPO to create a better situation. At that time, even if there are any problems, we will have the ability and time to deal with them."

"However, we cannot afford any more problems in the next six months to a year!"

Aunt Shu quickly summarized and clarified.

I understand now.

She wanted us to agree on a plan and handle this matter discreetly!

After all, until now, only I, her, and the attacker know about this!

Various thoughts raced through my mind.

I suffered such a huge loss, and you just let it go so easily?

Are you kidding me!

She pointed at me quite seriously: "You need to consider the bigger picture. I'll handle it!"

I retorted, "What did you even do? You almost got beaten to a pulp. Besides, do you even dare to go back to your place tonight? Someone's already taken you to their den!"

She fell silent.

I was quite pleased again: "Why don't you come stay at my place? It's all my territory now!"

I quickly pulled my foot back, wary of her leg kick that could kill me!
