My Dongguan Love Story

Chu Xiuyan hung up Zhang Xiaoqian's call, tapped his finger on the phone screen, and dialed his apprentice Hou San's number.

The moment the call connected, he said in a deep voice, "Hey, Hou San, which hospital did the ambulance that picked up that person last night end up at?"

Hou San was on guard at the entrance of Dingsheng Factory last night when he happened to see an ambulance going out for a call. He went up to find out where it was going and told Chu Xiuyan the name of the hospital.

The news eventually reached Zhang Xiaoqian's ears. Once she found out which hospital Chen Dazhuang and the woman were staying at, she immediately threw off the covers and got out of bed. After quickly tidying herself up in front of the vanity mirror, she hurried downstairs, calling out loudly, "Shufen, Shufen?"

She hadn't had lunch yet and was thinking of going downstairs to eat first before going to cause trouble for Chen Dazhuang. But after calling for a long time and circling the house several times, she still couldn't see the nanny, Shufen. She muttered in confusion, "That's strange, why isn't Shufen here? Did she take the day off?"

Helpless, she picked up a cup of instant noodles, made some, and ate it quickly. After finishing, she prepared to leave.

But after thinking for a moment, she went back to wash up and applied a bright lipstick to her lips. Looking up at her reflection, she saw a face with delicate features and a radiant appearance.

Zhang Xiaoqian glanced around for a moment, secretly pleased with herself. She turned and left, got into her Volkswagen sedan, and drove straight to the hospital. Upon arriving, she asked a nurse for directions and finally found Dazhuang's ward.

When she heard it was a double ward, she frowned slightly and sneered, "Hmph, scumbag, spending my mother's money to stay in a luxury hospital room."

She walked up the stairs, and after searching for a while on the third floor, she finally found room 309.

Standing at the door of the ward, she took a few deep breaths, slowly pushed open the door, and suddenly froze.

She saw Dazhuang holding Lin Guilian, sitting on the hospital bed. Instantly, all the love and longing she felt for Dazhuang vanished, replaced by boundless rage. She shouted at Dazhuang in a fit of fury:

"Dazhuang, how dare you hug and kiss another woman behind my mother's back!"

Upon hearing that sharp voice, I was startled and turned around in confusion, only to find that the person who came was Zhang Xiaoqian. My expression instantly darkened.

Zhang Xiaoqian's shout startled Lin Guilian awake, her body stiffening slightly. She turned her head blankly to look at Zhang Xiaoqian at the door, having not heard the argument clearly, assuming the girl in front of her was also Chen Dazhuang's lover, and stood there stunned with astonishment.

Lin Guilian carefully examined Zhang Xiaoqian across from her. Zhang Xiaoqian had delicate and attractive features, but her figure was thin and frail, and her chest was so flat that it was almost like a man's. She subconsciously glanced at Chen Dazhuang beside her, her heart filled with puzzlement.

In the past, Da Zhuang had only associated with voluptuous women, and he had never seen this type before, which was definitely not his type. But seeing Zhang Xiaoqian's angry face and furious demeanor, he was unsure and felt a little hesitant.

I looked at Zhang Xiaoqian, whose face was full of anger, my brows furrowed slightly, and my tone was somewhat impatient: "Why did you suddenly come here?"

A suspicion crept into my mind. I had kept this a secret so well that she shouldn't have found out anything. Could it be that the housekeeper, Shufen, had let it slip? On second thought, it made sense. If Zhang Xiaoqian were to press her for details, Shufen, who was soft-hearted and couldn't keep her mouth shut, would most likely give in to the questioning and tell her everything.

Just as I was wondering what was going on, I saw Shufen open the bathroom door and walk out, looking at Zhang Xiaoqian with a surprised and bewildered expression: "Miss? What are you doing here?"

Zhang Xiaoqian frowned, full of doubt, and asked, "That's what I should be asking you. Why aren't you at home doing chores? What are you doing here?"

She thought Shufen had gone home for the day, but she didn't expect her to be here. How did she end up here?

Shufen looked nervously at Zhang Xiaoqian's angry, flushed face as she heard her words: "It was President Zhao who asked me to come and take care of this beautiful woman."

Hearing her words, Zhang Xiaoqian froze on the spot, questioning incredulously, "My mother sent you to take care of this bitch?"

She simply couldn't understand it.

Lin Guilian is clearly my mother's rival in love, so how could my mother possibly let her own nanny come to take care of her?

Shufen looked flustered, her eyes darting back and forth between me and Zhang Xiaoqian before she hurriedly stepped back towards the door, saying, "Yes... I'll go out and buy something first."

Before she could finish speaking, she hurriedly pushed open the door and slipped away without waiting for a response from the two of them.

Shufen could tell at a glance that the atmosphere inside was tense and on the verge of a fight, so she didn't dare to stay a moment longer. She hurried away, faster than a rabbit, and disappeared in an instant.

Zhang Xiaoqian stared at the open door, her face growing increasingly gloomy. She turned and unleashed all her anger on me.

After Shufen ran out, I turned to look at Zhang Xiaoqian, my tone somewhat displeased: "Watch your mouth, don't shout nonsense."

Lin Guilian is my girlfriend now, how could I let Zhang Xiaoqian call her a slut?

When Zhang Xiaoqian heard that I had actually stood up for Lin Guilian, she was so angry that she rushed over and raised her hand, wanting to slap Lin Guilian across the face.

Lin Guilian reacted quickly, deftly shifting her body to the side to avoid the slap coming at her. She then raised her hand and delivered a powerful backhand slap to Zhang Xiaoqian's cheek.

A crisp slap echoed in the room, and a bright red handprint instantly appeared on half of Zhang Xiaoqian's cheek. A burning pain shot straight to her head, and she froze on the spot, stunned and dazed, not realizing for a moment that she had been hit.

Zhang Xiaolian covered her burning cheeks and stood there stunned for a brief moment. The piercing pain spread along her skin, and a surge of anger instantly rushed to her head.

In her twenty-odd years of life, she had never been beaten so badly, and the one who did it was none other than Lin Guilian, whom she hated. Humiliation and resentment mingled together, her eyes turned red, and she clenched her fists. Without saying a word, she lunged forward, determined to grab Lin Guilian and settle scores.

Seeing this, I reached out and grabbed Zhang Xiaoqian's shoulders, pressing her down firmly to stop her from lunging at Lin Guilian.

Zhang Xiaoqian was restrained and unable to move. She twisted and struggled desperately, her cheeks red with handprints, and she screamed incessantly, "I'm going to beat this bitch to death! Let me go!"

Zhang Xiaoqian's screams were deafening, and the nurse who just walked in over heard them. The nurse frowned, pointed at her, and sternly reminded her, "This is a ward. If you want to argue, go outside. Don't disturb the patient's rest."

Shufen followed behind the nurse, secretly glancing at Zhang Xiaoqian, and then, feeling somewhat afraid, hid outside the door again.

Shufen had worked as a nanny for the Zhao family for eight years and knew Zhang Xiaoqian's spoiled and domineering nature inside and out. She knew that once Zhang Xiaoqian was angry, she couldn't be calmed down with just a few words of persuasion. Sure enough, Zhang Xiaoqian suddenly broke free from her restraints, turned around, and shouted at the nurse sharply:

"Who do you think you are, to order me around?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Zhang Xiaoqian rushed forward in anger and kicked the nurse hard in the stomach.

She kicked the nurse in the stomach, knocking her to the ground.

Caught off guard, the nurse was kicked in the lower abdomen, causing her to stagger backward and fall heavily onto the cold floor. She gasped in pain, her brows furrowed, and her face instantly drained of color.

But before she could recover, Zhang Xiaoqian, still furious, refused to give up. Her anger surged, and she raised her foot to kick the person on the ground again.

Upon seeing this, the nurse's heart tightened. Driven by her survival instinct, she quickly reached out and grabbed Zhang Xiaoqian's raised ankle tightly. The two instantly grappled, wrestling and struggling in the quiet ward. The scene completely spiraled out of control, becoming utterly chaotic.

I looked at the two people wrestling in front of me in a mess, helplessly raised my hand to cover my face, and felt a headache coming on.

Lin Guilian, arms crossed, watched the farce with interest. Just then, she saw the nurse slap Zhang Xiaoqian in the chaos. She immediately smiled, leaned closer to me, and said in a teasing tone:

"Dazhuang, you're really lucky with the ladies. Your suitor has quite the unique temper, she's pretty shrewish." Hearing her words, my face darkened.

As I was wondering how to separate the two people who were tearing each other apart, two security guards rushed into the ward upon hearing the commotion. They struggled forward and pulled hard, finally managing to separate the two wrestling individuals.

Zhang Xiaoqian had completely lost her composure as a young lady. Her hair was disheveled, her clothes were wrinkled, and there were still red marks on her face. She was extremely disheveled.

She glared fiercely at the departing nurse, but when she turned to look at me, all her hostility vanished instantly, her eyes reddening with tears of grievance.

She looked at me, her voice choked with sobs, "Dazhuang, you actually ganged up on me with them! I'm going to tell my mom!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately took out her phone, her fingers frantically trying to dial Mr. Zhao's number.
