"You don't look happy at all." On the way back, Xia Li took the initiative to hold Sun Chun's arm, leaned on his shoulder, and asked playfully.

"Watching other men blatantly provoking you, no matter which man in hubby they are in, they won't tolerate it." Sun Chun said as he stopped and turned to hug Xia Li.

"Promise me that in the future, you'll only have me in your heart. Don't even think about other men."

"Then marry me." When Xia Li said this, his heart was beating like a drum, his palms sweating nervously.

"I will." Sun Chun seemed to be thinking about something, but he quickly responded to Xia Li.

Hearing that, a huge boulder in Xia Li's heart slowly fell to the ground, the other question in his mind also surfaced, "Recently when you go out every few days, what are you doing in secret?"

"It has to do with my clan's business. This time, I lost my Red River Town because there are still many things that I have yet to finish." A complex expression flashed across Sun Chun's eyes as he consoled Xia Li, "After I finish my work, I'll explain everything to you clearly, okay?"

"Up to you. I still have to busy myself with matters of hospital anyway, so I don't have the time to keep an eye on you everyday anyway." Xia Li was a little bored, so he did not beat around the bush on this topic anymore.

Sun Chun once again left Xia Li to busy himself with other things. Xia Li returned to the hospital alone.

was curious, so he went to the backyard, where Lee's was washing clothes by the well. Seeing Xia Li coming over, she quietly measured his body, as if trying to avoid her.

Xia Li was suspicious in his heart, he went closer to the Lee's and took the initiative to hold her hand, "Mother, let me help you wash these clothes."

"How, how can this be!" As if struck by lightning, Lee's struggled free from Xia Li and stood up, revealing the swollen bruises on his face.

"Mom, what's going on with you!" Xia Li lightly touched Lee's's face, causing her to take another step back to avoid the pain.

She mumbled, "No..." "It's nothing, I just accidentally touched it."

"Where's Xia Manjiang? Where is he?" As Xia Li said this, he was about to go find someone in Lee's's room, but Lee's blocked his path.

"He's not in the house. He said he went to meet his friends at the pub." Lee's was nervous for a moment, and immediately lowered his head after he finished speaking.

"Mom, where did he get the money to go to a tavern? All he sees are his bad friends!" Xia Li was so angry that his liver hurt. It had only been a few days, but that man had already revealed his true nature.

"He only beat me up when I was drunk. He treats me pretty well." Lee's explained carefully.

"Mother!" Xia Manjiang already beat him up, and you still want to defend him? Even now, you are still protecting him! " Xia Li's voice rose to a crescendo, scaring Lee's out of his wits and he squatted on the ground.

"It's mother's fault, don't be angry." When the Lee's became nervous, he returned to the side of the washbasin and rubbed his clothes with all his might.

"Mother, I was wrong. I shouldn't have spoken to you so loudly." Xia Li calmed Sun Chun down, went to the hospital, took out the medicine, applied it on the Lee's and supported her back to her room to rest.

When the sun was about to set, Xia Manjiang dragged his tipsy body back to the hospital and lied down in front of them to play with them. After scaring away all the customers and smashing the teacups served by the guests in the hospital, he was so excited that he was about to hit attending doctor Bai Ying with the teapot.

When Xia Li arrived at the hospital Hall, he saw such a chaotic scene.

Even though Day Rui and Day Bao were furious, but because Xia Manjiang was Xia Li's father, Bai Ying did not dare to do anything to him. Furthermore, there were Lee's standing at the side watching them.

Xia Li's expression was calm, the anger in her eyes dimmed, and she shouted.

"Day Rui, the two of you go find a thick rope to tie up this drunkard who was lying on the ground and hang him on a tree in the backyard. Without my permission, no one is allowed to put him down."

"Yes, Manager!"

Day Rui agreed and started running to find the rope.

"Shopkeeper, I have knockout drugs here. Drink them down for him. I can't let him cause any trouble." Day Bao said as he took out a white paper package from the counter.

"Go and drink a small cup of wine for him. Let him fall asleep for a short while." Xia Li replied.

"Alright, shopkeeper." Day Bao said, he ran to the table that was used to entertain the patients, found a tea bowl, tore open the white paper bag, poured some knockout medicine, held the teapot and poured half a cup, then walked to Xia Manjiang.

"What are you guys doing? Get out of the way!" Although Xia Manjiang was drunk, he still had a strong sense of self-preservation. Lying on the ground, he kicked and kicked wildly, causing others to be unable to approach him.

"Shopkeeper, you must hold him down before I can pour the knockout drug into him." Day Bao said with difficulty.

"Then this old man should come over and help too! "Shopkeeper, I will hold him together with you!" Bai Ying was also probably angry, so he called for help.

"Alright, Doctor Bai, let's go together." As Xia Li said this, he stepped forward and approached Xia Manjiang. Xia Manjiang casually swung both of his arms, and Xia Li stepped forward, preparing to grab both of his arms. But in the midst of pulling, he was ruthlessly slapped by Xia Manjiang!

With a "pa" sound, Xia Li felt a burning pain on his face. Not long after, his face swelled up like a steamed bun.

The scene instantly quietened down as Lee's covered her mouth in shock. Bai Ying was also stunned as the teacup in Day Bao's hand almost flew out as well.

"Don't come near me! Get lost! " Xia Manjiang was still shouting on the ground, kicking both of his legs out of control.

"Manager, the rope is here!" Day Rui just happened to appear at the hospital in time, his voice filled with excitement.

Xia Li endured the stinging pain on his face and shouted at Day Bao: "The two of you come over and hold onto his hands and feet. Bai Ying and I will tie him up."

"Alright, Manager!" Bai Ying and Xia Li tied Xia Manjiang up together. The few of them used all their strength to drag Xia Manjiang to the backyard and hung him on a tree.

Lee's followed by the side. He touched his own bruised cheek and looked at Xia Li's furious face. He felt extremely guilty.

Xia Li did not let anyone near her, he took the medicine and returned to his room alone, placing it on the table, he leaned on the bed in a daze, the burning pain on his face occasionally torturing her sensitive nerves.

When Sun Chun returned, he found that the atmosphere in the courtyard was not right, Day Rui was grabbing the medicine with his head down, and Doctor Bai could not help but sigh. Lee's rushed to his side and told Sun Chun everything that had happened during the day in detail, causing his heart to sink a little.

"Aunt, this is your family's matter, and is not suitable for junior to comment on. However, I hope you all stop hurting Xia Li." After Sun Chun finished speaking, he walked away with a gloomy face.

Lee's was stunned, she, too, only wanted the whole family to get together to live a good life, was that wrong?

When Sun Chun came to Xia Li's room, she was leaning on the bed blankly. There was a bright red five-fingered mountain handprint on her face, like an injured little beast trapped in her own emotions.

Sun Chun glanced at the medicine on the table, and accompanied her in.

"Help me apply the medicine." After a long period of silence, Xia Li said with a hoarse voice.

"It's a little painful, bear with it." Sun Chun held the medicine in one hand and the cotton swab in the other, and approached Xia Li and wiped against her cheek, causing Xia Li to dodge the cotton swab in pain.

"It's fine, continue." Xia Li once again returned in front of Sun Chun, closed his eyes, and said resolutely.

Sun Chun tried to move as lightly as possible and increased his speed. After smearing the medicine on Xia Li, he helped her to lie down on the bed.

"Don't think about anything else. Sleep well, everything will be fine." Sun Chun comforted Xia Li, "Tonight, I won't go anywhere, I'll stay by your side."

"Alright." Xia Li said, holding Sun Chun's arm, and closed his eyes and fell asleep.

During the night, the rain fell incessantly, washing away the mud on the leaves and washing away the dust on the floor. It also woke Xia Manjiang who was hanging on the tree.

"Someone, put me down, is there anyone?" Xia Manjiang currently felt his entire body feeling stuffy, his head aching, raindrops was flowing down his face, the cool night breeze was blowing ruthlessly, he suddenly sneezed again.

Unfortunately, even though he cried out so loudly, no one took care of him.

Lee's stayed in her room anxiously all the way until dawn. When she guessed that Xia Li and the rest were asleep, no one noticed her and she quietly went out of her room, holding an oil-paper umbrella and a rain cape. She entered the courtyard.

"Damned woman, you actually know how to come visit me!?" Cough cough! " The moment Xia Manjiang saw Lee's coming out, he shouted excitedly, but as he opened his mouth, rainwater flowed into it, causing him to cough non-stop.

"Stop talking!" The Lee's chided him, then draped the cape over Xia Manjiang's body and left.

Before the sky brightened, Lee's once again sneakily took away the raincoat. Tonight, her heart was trembling with fear, afraid that Xia Li would become angry, but also extremely worried that he would die from the rain.

After the rain, the weather became scorching hot, the sun hung high in the sky, causing Xia Manjiang's entire body to sweat. He was already shouting until his lips were dry and his throat was hoarse.

Lee's was worried that someone might really die, so she forced herself to open Xia Li's room. Seeing that the swelling on her face had subsided, she felt much better.

"My daughter, does your face still hurt? What do you want to eat, Mother will make it for you. "

Xia Li shook her head and closed her eyes, she was in a daze, the moment she saw Lee's, her heart was on the line, she did not know what to say.

"If your father continues to live like this, there will be deaths. It won't be good for you even if word of this spreads." The Lee's restrained himself and stole a glance at Xia Li. He pinched his fingers together, and still said it out loud.

"Rest first, I'll make you your favorite chicken wings." Seeing that Xia Li's expression was unknown, the Lee's looked for help at Sun Chun, then lowered his head and walked out.

After the room closed, Xia Li opened his eyes. The corners of his eyes were red, and his hands were clenched into fists, which made a cracking sound.
