CHAPTER 691: CHAPTER 693: GO HOME, JUST SAY IT.

"At a time like this, you still have the mood to think about this?" Xu Nianhua resisted the urge to roll her eyes, constantly worried about the injury on his back, but, as Pei Yicheng pulled her to sit with him, she could only see the doctors and nurses continuously setting blood-soaked gauze aside, the shocking red making her heart pound with fear.

If it hadn’t been for Pei Yicheng shielding her, would she be the one injured now?

"Look at me." Pei Yicheng turned her face away from the doctors, not letting her see their side; he asked, "I want to gain the approval of your uncle and aunt as soon as possible, I want to stand by your side openly and honorably."

His voice was calm, his gaze focused and affectionate.

His steady tone and composed demeanor suddenly made Xu Nianhua understand; he was afraid she would worry, afraid she would be scared, so he deliberately brought this up at this moment, under these circumstances.

Xu Nianhua clasped his hand in return, a radiant smile spreading across her lips, "When we get home, I’ll talk to mom and dad."

Her bright smile was like a warm sunbeam in spring, illuminating Pei Yicheng’s heart, making even the painful wound on his back seem trivial.

Xu Nian’an watched the ghastly wound and their lovey-dovey antics, and couldn’t help but think: His little sister really has endless charm; even though Yicheng is so badly hurt, he still worries about making his little sister anxious and uses his unique way to comfort her.

Outside the treatment room, Ji Ying and others were waiting.

Ji Ying paced back and forth at the door, looking at Li Jianbin who was restrained by the police, yet couldn’t help but curse, "If something happens to Yicheng, we will never let you off the hook!"

Ji Ying had seen that scene clearly too; had it not been for Pei Yicheng’s body shielding Nianhua, it would have been her daughter Xu Nianhua who was stabbed!

Thinking back to that perilous moment, Ji Ying still felt frightened.

Ji Ying, still indignant, wanted to take action.

Xu Nianji hurried over to hold her back, saying, "Mom, the law will punish him, be careful not to hurt yourself."

Li Jianbin might have been handcuffed, but who knew if he might still go crazy?

Seeing Li Jianbin’s current state, not particularly good, especially after finding out that his deed had been exposed, he seemed to have collapsed, gone mad; Xu Nianji was genuinely afraid that Li Jianbin might go crazy again.

"Nianji, go and see how Yicheng is doing. If it weren’t for Yicheng, it would have been your little sister who was injured," Ji Ying turned back and saw the blood spilled on the ground, with cleaners sweeping it up, trailing all the way to the treatment room, and her heart felt uncomfortably heavy.

Xu Nianji comforted, "Mom, don’t worry, I just heard from the doctor, no vital parts were damaged; he just needs to rest and recover afterward. Later on, we could make some nutritious soups for him to help him recover faster."

"Yeah, he does need the nourishment," Ji Ying followed to the door of the treatment room, but they could not see much of the inside and could only wait anxiously.

Xu Yong held a notebook, continuously interviewing those around.

"He’s out."

Someone said, and Pei Yicheng had his wounds dressed and was receiving anti-inflammatory IV treatment. Other than looking a bit pale, he stood as straight as ever and, facing everyone’s concerned gazes, laughed and said, "I’m okay, thank you all for your concern."

"Dear uncles and aunts, thank you for your hard work today. I will arrange for someone to take you back to South City," Xu Nian’an bowed deeply to them.

"No trouble at all; when we get back, we still want to buy hot pepper sauce, after seeing the quality of your factory, we feel assured about eating it," one of the uncles earnestly said.
