Chapter 761: 761 A couple who appear to be in love but are actually apart
Meanwhile, in the intensive care unit of Hengdu First Hospital, Huang Meng had regained consciousness. He wasn't dead, but rather revived. He was immediately noticed, and nurses and doctors rushed over to check on the Huang family's eldest son.
"How is he?" Fang Shuiling smoked a cigarette outside the hospital, a hint of impatience on her face. She'd only come here for show. Family marriages were like that; there was no such thing as happiness between people without a strong emotional connection.
"The patient's condition is basically stable, and his sanity is normal. The brain damage isn't severe, and it doesn't affect his thinking," the attending physician replied respectfully. The woman before him was not to be trifled with. Powerful women should be avoided; remembering this is key to a successful career in the hospital.
Fang Shuiling's eyes narrowed slightly. "Where are the other test reports?"
"Here!" The attending physician respectfully handed over the reports, not a single word of nonsense, not daring to say anything more.
Fang Shuiling reviewed the medical report, a sardonic smile suddenly curling her lips. "Is he a eunuch now?"
The attending physician was startled by the words. The smile was so sinister that it made his heart beat faster. "Medically, he's lost his reproductive capacity."
"Anything else? Tell me all at once." Fang Shuiling's smile grew even more sinister. Losing his reproductive capacity meant she wouldn't be violated, which was a good thing for her.
"Because the patient's left leg was amputated, if he wants to recover, he can choose to wear a prosthesis. However, he still needs observation and can only use a wheelchair for the time being. Although the patient is recovering, he still needs to be observed. We will continue to follow up and ensure his speedy recovery." The attending physician's words were flawless, leaving no room for error.
"How long will it take? Give me an approximate time." Fang Shuiling put the report aside, puffing smoke rings, completely ignoring the no-smoking sign on the wall. To her, it was meaningless!
"It will take a month of observation before he's discharged," the attending physician replied truthfully. "If something unexpected happens, it will take longer." A hint of sweat formed on the attending physician's forehead. Dealing with such powerful people was the most frustrating thing. The slightest inattention would result in a scolding, and there was no way to fight back.
"Alright, I understand." Fang Shuiling tossed her cigarette butt into the trash can and returned to the nursing room. Looking at the frail Huang Meng, she felt a surge of satisfaction.
They had been married for three years, and Huang Meng had changed women countless times, gotten them pregnant. She couldn't even count them. For the sake of her family, she had endured the humiliation. Now, seeing her heartless enemy lying before her, how could she not feel joy?
It wasn't that Fang Shuiling hadn't loved a man before. He was a college classmate, and they had both planned to marry. It was just a shame that the marriage was arranged before she even graduated.
She contacted her boyfriend a few times after that, naively hoping to overcome numerous obstacles and be together. The result was cruel, and it was a wake-up call for her. Huang Meng had Fang Shuiling's boyfriend beaten to death, leaving him with nothing. He later sent someone to take the blame.
This was also the reason Fang Shuiling refused to sleep with Huang Meng. After a few encounters, Huang Meng lost interest in her. Although he didn't rape her, he wouldn't tolerate any inappropriate behavior from her. Any man he approached would be instantly eliminated.
This was also why Fang Shuiling hated Huang Meng. He had ruined her life, made her lose her fighting spirit, and the one she loved.
"Everything has been investigated. Fang Tianyou of the Fang family was driving the car, and the Fang family has already paid compensation. You'd better wake up soon. Your eldest brother is eyeing your compensation assets." Fang Shuiling took a deep breath, not revealing her hatred. "Hmph, don't think I'll sympathize with you. I just don't want to be a poor man's wife."
Huang Meng moved his lips and said with a hard voice, "I'm sorry." His apology was sincere and heartfelt, and it seemed genuine.
However, Fang Shuiling wasn't buying it. They'd been married for years, and while they hadn't slept together, surely she didn't know what kind of person her husband was? "Stop the nonsense. I won't interfere with your business. Take care of your own affairs. I'll tell your men to stabilize the situation first."
"Thank you!" Huang Meng replied weakly again. Speaking was now a struggle.
"Get some rest," Fang Shuiling said, then turned and left, her high heels clicking against the floor.
A flicker of anger flashed across Huang Meng's eyes, anger at Fang Shuiling. He'd expected Fang Shuiling to seize the opportunity to attack him, but she'd simply laughed at him and walked away. With such a good opportunity, she wouldn't show it?
"Who's trying to harm me? Zhao An, is it you?" Huang Meng's first suspicion was Zhao An. It wasn't for any reason, it was simply the persistence of a conspirator.
In a daze, Huang Meng drifted in and out of sleep. He seemed to have regained his spirits after a good night's sleep. Not long after he opened his eyes, a nurse came to check on him. After moistening his lips, Huang Meng was helped up and leaned against the headboard.
"Have you investigated who did it?" Huang Meng asked his trusted confidant weakly.
"It was Fang Tianyou from the Fang family. Both sides have sent people to investigate, but no signs of tampering have been found. Furthermore, Fang Tianyou's travel route that day was normal. This was an accident. Fang Tianyou was drunk and speeding on the highway that day. He even had a prostitute perform oral sex on him, and the accident happened in the heat of the moment. Fang Tianyou has been brought here to be handled by Young Master Meng. He's not dead yet, just disabled," the trusted military advisor replied calmly.
"Oral sex? Fucking hell! Cough cough!" Huang Meng coughed again in anger. After finally calming down, he asked, "How are my injuries?"
The trusted military advisor paused and informed Huang Meng that he had become a eunuch. He lowered his head, not daring to look at Huang Meng's expression. Any man becoming a eunuch wouldn't feel good.
Although the chances of a eunuch becoming head of a household were already very low, given the issue of reputation, what if there was still a chance? Who could say for sure? Eunuchs weren't without power!
