After a chubby wife with a child undergoes a remarkable transformation, her beauty becomes the talk

As a healthcare worker, I still feel very gratified when I think about this.

"Is there something you need?"

Li Xingyun hadn't forgotten his promise that the girl could come to him anytime if she needed anything.

Shen Lu explained the whole story to Li Xingyun in a concise and clear manner.

Li Xingyun was shocked after hearing this.

"Don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. This is a dereliction of duty on our part, and I will make sure that the relevant personnel take responsibility for this."

With Li Xingyun's words, Shen Lu felt much more at ease.

"Thank you, Dean Li."

It's not just for Gu Xiaohua's safety afterward, but also so that the mother and daughter can rest in peace in the afterlife.

"It's okay. If you have any problems in the future, feel free to contact me."

After saying that, Li Xingyun hung up the phone.

His dark eyes were brimming with boundless rage.

Hospitals are supposed to be places for saving lives and healing the wounded, so how could such a terrible thing happen? This matter must be thoroughly investigated to give the deceased an explanation!

Li Xingyun called his assistant to come upstairs and immediately prepared a car to go to the People's Hospital.

After finishing their phone call, Shen Lu and Gu Xiao went to the hospital together, hoping to find some useful information there.

Suddenly, Shen Lu saw a familiar greasy face; it was the hospital director who had dined at the state-run restaurant with County Chief Zhao that time.

His face was shiny with oil, and his sparse hair on top couldn't hide his oily head. His smile was cunning. Shen Lu felt that he was no good person the first time she saw him.

Shen Lu deduced that he most likely knew about this matter, and only he had the authority to order his subordinates to keep it a secret.

A bold plan came to mind.

Shen Lu and Gu Xiao whispered to each other, and the two of them immediately got to work.

Gu Xiao found a piece of cloth and covered his face. Just as the dean came out, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Gu Xiao used a dagger to hold him hostage and led him into the alley they had just been in.

Gu Xiao was tall and imposing, and the dean knew he was no match for him, so he was too scared to resist.

"Grandpa, Grandma, whatever money you want, I have it all."

The dean begged for mercy in a trembling voice.

"We're not here for money, we're here to take your life. You know perfectly well what you've done."

Shen Lu appeared in front of the dean, her voice sinister and terrifying.

The dean was so frightened that he begged for mercy repeatedly, his words full of attempts to cover up the truth. Even under these circumstances, he refused to admit that he had lied about the facts.

"Grandma, I didn't do anything, I don't know anything. Please let me go. I swear, I will investigate thoroughly and help you find the murderer."

"Dare to lie to me?"

The dagger in Shen Lu's hand gleamed with a chilling light.

"If you tell a lie, I'll cut off one of your fingers."

The dagger sank deeper and deeper into his neck, and the dean's legs trembled uncontrollably, so weak that he could not stand up.

"I said, Grandma, ask me anything."

"My sister died in your hospital, and you said it was an accident. I'm here today just to get the truth."

In order to extract more information, Shen Lu deliberately concealed other details, pretending that the deceased was her sister.

The dean's eyes darted around before he cautiously began to speak.

"I'm sorry, that surgery was indeed an accident; the anesthesiologist didn't control the dosage properly."

Shen Lu and Gu Xiao exchanged a glance; it wasn't the matter they wanted to investigate.

It seems this hospital has a lot of wrongful convictions and miscarriages of justice.

Through Shen Lu and Gu Xiao's half-threatening, half-routine words, the dean revealed almost everything about the forgeries he had committed over the years.

The number of accidents involving various departments and age groups is countless.

This is just one case involving young women.

After recording everything on paper, Shen Lu and Gu Xiao let the dean off the hook.

After all, they only managed to get the information out of the dean by threatening him with underhanded means, and they didn't have much right to arrest him.

The dean practically scrambled away from there.

He knew he would be finished once these things were exposed, so he immediately took a car home, preparing to take his wife and children away from this place of trouble.

Shen Lu and Gu Xiao rode their bicycles to Gu Xiaohua's house.

They told Gu Xiaohua everything they had found out that day, and that Zhang Chenggang, who was forced into a corner, might come to their door tonight, so the two of them didn't plan to go back.

Gu Xiao had already ridden back and settled the two children at Li Mei's house.

Shen Lu, Gu Xiao, and Han Ping all live at Gu Xiaohua's house.

Dinner was also at Gu Xiaohua's house.

Shen Lu went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought two catties of meat. After Gu Xiao and Han Ping prepared the dishes, she cooked a hearty meal for the group.

Shen Lu's delicious dishes temporarily eased the tense atmosphere.

Han Ping: "I've heard for a long time that my sister-in-law's cooking is incredibly delicious; even the dishes served in state-run restaurants can't compare to her skills."

Today I finally got to taste it.

Gu Xiaohua felt even more embarrassed. She had come to her house and her second brother had to buy meat and her sister-in-law had to cook. She felt that her younger sister was really bad at this.

To soothe her emotions, Shen Lu kept chatting with her.

The two talked about the excitement they felt when their children were born, and about the moments when Xiao Yu and Xiao Ze grew up. Gu Xiaohua's emotions were indeed calmed down a lot.

That evening, in order to lure Zhang Chenggang to their door, they deliberately blew out the lights early.

Gu Xiao and Han Ping guarded the living room, which was the easiest place to enter, while Shen Lu stayed with Gu Xiaohua and the children in the inner room.

Gu Xiaohua kept swallowing nervously, afraid that someone might get hurt. A deep sense of self-blame swept over her.

Shen Lu held her hand.

"It's okay, it's not your fault. You were only eighteen when you got married, it's amazing that you've lasted this long."

These words seemed to offer Gu Xiaohua immense comfort without her even realizing it.

She took a deep breath; she was a mother, and she couldn't let her child get hurt under any circumstances.

Besides, he has so many relatives supporting him.

She can't fall!

Late at night, just as everyone was getting sleepy.

A slight noise alerted Gu Xiao; the window they had deliberately left unlocked was opened from the outside.

He nudged Han Ping beside him.

Han Ping immediately opened his eyes.

"They've arrived?"

Gu Xiao gestured for silence.

The two men watched the furtive figure reflected in the window, then cautiously walked to either side of the curtains, waiting to subdue Zhang Cheng as soon as he entered.

The moment his feet touched the ground, he was captured by Gu Xiao and Han Ping.

"Ahhhhh."

Zhang Chenggang struggled violently as both of his arms were restrained.

"Snap!" The light was turned on.

Gu Xiaohua and Shen Lu, dressed completely covered up, appeared at the bedroom door.

Zhang Chenggang could easily see that these people were setting a trap for him, just waiting for him to fall into it.

Shen Lu took out the rope she had prepared beforehand and handed it to Gu Xiao.

The two men worked together to tie Zhang Chenggang up tightly, making him look like a meat dumpling.

Gu Xiao stayed at home, while Han Ping rode his bicycle to the police station.

Zhang Chenggang initially pleaded desperately, saying that he was so obsessed with having a son that he was completely blinded by lust.

He swore he would never have that thought again and would never harass Gu Xiaohua and her son again.
