The aloof military doctor arrives at the unit, and the tough guy can't sit still.

Qian Guifang's lips trembled slightly with anger, and her eyes slowly welled up with tears.

How can these city people be so mean and unreasonable? How much suffering must Xiao Ran endure here trying to make a living?

Although she was angry, she held back for fear of causing trouble for Xia Qiuran.

He hunched over, picked up the clothes from the ground, and went back to the ward.

Watching Qian Guifang's retreating figure, Bai Yunyun slowly curled a mocking smile at the corner of her mouth, her eyes filled with an arrogant and domineering air.

"What an ignorant Shangri-La! He's been bullied like this and doesn't even dare to talk back. Looks like I'll have to really yell at him next time."

After experiencing the thrill of bullying Qian Guifang, Bai Yunyun's twisted heart swelled up.

...

Holding her clothes, Qian Guifang walked to the ward door, quickly wiped away her tears, and lowered her rolled-up sleeves to cover her wound.

Upon entering, they saw Xia Qiuran sitting by the bed massaging Xia Dazhi's calves. After lying in bed for days without being able to move, Xia Dazhi's legs had become somewhat numb.

"Xiao Ran, I can take care of these things. You have a shift today, so go to work. You don't need to keep running to your dad's place. It wouldn't be good if your boss saw you." Qian Guifang pushed Xia Qiuran away and sat on the edge of the bed to massage Xia Dazhi.

"It's nothing, Mom. I've almost finished my work this morning, so I came to check on you," Xia Qiuran said with a smile. Turning her head, she saw the clothes her mother had placed on the floor and asked...

"Hey, aren't these the washed clothes? Why aren't they hanging up? I'll go hang them up."

As Xia Qiuran was about to leave with the clothes, Qian Guifang quickly stopped her, fearing that Xia Qiuran would also be harassed by Bai Yunyun when she got to the washroom.

"No, no, I didn't notice the clothes I just washed fell on the floor. I'll wash them again later."

"Then I'll go wash it."

Xia Qiuran continued, and Qian Guifang's face immediately showed a hint of anxiety.

"No." He blurted out in a moment of panic, and his tense expression made Xia Qiuran realize that something was wrong.

It's just washing clothes, why is Mom so nervous?

Qian Guifang snatched the basin and put it on the ground, making up an excuse on the spot.

"You're at work, how can you take someone else's salary to do your own side jobs?"

Xia Qiuran: "It's okay. Our work is divided up. I've finished my own work, and the rest of the time is free."

Qian Guifang: "That won't do either. Although we are from the countryside, we know our place and can't let people laugh at us behind our backs."

Seeing Qian Guifang's insistence, Xia Qiuran had no choice but to give up, thinking she would come over to help during her lunch break.

"Okay then, I'll come over during my lunch break."

After saying that, he turned to leave, but as he turned to close the door, he suddenly saw bloodstains on the ground.

This ward is full of bone injury patients, so there shouldn't be much blood. Xia Qiuran lingered at the door for a while, and then saw another drop of blood dripping from her mother's sleeve.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Xia Qiuran quickly ran into the ward, grabbed Qian Guifang's arm, and asked.

"It's nothing, just a minor bump. What's the big deal? Go to work now."

Qian Guifang withdrew her arm and waved her hand dismissively.

Xia Qiuran refused to believe it, and coupled with her unusual behavior just now, she directly lifted up her mother's sleeve.

A large wound on her arm was simply wrapped twice with a strip of cloth, and blood was still seeping out from the poorly bandaged area.

"Mom, who did this?" Xia Qiuran asked, her heart filled with both heartache and anger. Xia Dazhi also turned his head nervously when he saw this.

"What do you mean, who did this? I just tripped and fell, and that's how my clothes came off."

Qian Guifang didn't want her family to worry, nor did she want to cause trouble, so she gave a perfunctory reply.

"No, something's not right about your expression."

Everything sounded reasonable, but Xia Qiuran felt something was off, so she continued to press for answers.

"With your dad like that, it would be strange if I looked good," Qian Guifang said, her face darkening as she continued to respond. "Alright, go on with your work, Mom's fine."

That makes sense. Who would be in a good mood when someone is sick? Xia Qiuran pulled Qian Guifang toward the clinic for disinfection and bandaging.

"Let me bandage it for you, come with me."

As he was about to walk out of the ward, he looked up and saw Bai Yunyun standing in front of him. His mother was there, and he didn't want to have any arguments with Bai Yunyun and worry his family.

So she planned to go around it from the side. When Qian Guifang saw that it was Bai Yunyun, she lowered her head even more, not wanting Xia Qiuran to know what had just happened.

Bai Yunyun saw this behavior as a sign that Xia Qiuran's family was afraid of her, and their arrogance grew even stronger.

"What a bunch of good-for-nothings! Their own mother was beaten like that, and they didn't even dare to say a word."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qiuran stopped in her tracks. It was clear that Bai Yunyun was referring to her mother's arm.

"Did you hurt my mother?" Xia Qiuran's pupils dilated suddenly, her eyes filled with anger.

"I didn't hit her. She's just too useless. She can't even walk properly without falling down." Bai Yunyun sneered. This time, she had learned her lesson. No matter what, she couldn't admit that she was in the wrong. That way, she wouldn't be afraid no matter where the trouble went.

"Xiao Ran, it's because my legs aren't very strong. Let's go." Qian Guifang was afraid that Xia Qiuran and Bai Yunyun would start arguing, so she quickly pulled her to the side.

"Our most important thing is to heal your father's injuries. Let her say whatever she wants."

They are from the countryside, with no connections, no one to back them up, and no money. Enduring hardship is the best solution for them, as their already dilapidated home really can't withstand any more trouble.

Xia Qiuran clenched her fist. The matter was still unclear. If it was just based on Bai Yunyun's few sarcastic remarks, even if it went to the police, it would be difficult to convict her. Even though she was unwilling, she could only leave first.

Finally, under Xia Qiuran's repeated questioning, Qian Guifang revealed what had just happened. Xia Qiuran was so angry that she wanted to crush the iodine bottle she was holding.

It's one thing for Bai Yunyun to cause trouble for her in the past, but now she's even going so far as to harass her family. It's really going too far.

"I'm going to find her." Xia Qiuran stood up and was about to leave.

Qian Guifang, however, quickly grabbed her, saying anxiously, "Xiao Ran, just let your mother have some peace of mind. I don't care about justice, I just want you all to be safe."

No one witnessed what happened, and Xia Qiuran didn't know what would happen if she went to look for her. Bai Xia would definitely side with her niece, and Gao Yingting had already helped her so much, so she really couldn't cause any more trouble for the dean.

Looking at her mother's wound, Xia Qiuran felt extremely distressed, but she really couldn't bear the consequences if things escalated.

After much deliberation, Xia Qiuran decided to hold back for the time being. It is said that a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years. When she no longer has to worry about so many things, she will definitely settle this score with Bai Yunyun.

On the other hand, Bai Yunyun felt extremely pleased to see Xia Qiuran filled with anger but not daring to retaliate. For so long, she had been getting the short end of the stick in front of Xia Qiuran. This time, she finally got her head held high. She was determined to get back all the humiliation she had suffered in the past.
