Five years without pregnancy means you're too weak; I remarried a powerful man and had triplets

"What?!"

The nurses were shocked and quickly helped Su Manman up from the ground, while urgently signaling to their colleagues behind them with their eyes.

This VIP ward was specially requested to be taken care of by the supervisor, because if a scandal involving calling the police were to occur, the reputation of the entire hospital would be affected.

They must not let this matter escalate unless absolutely necessary, but they must report the situation immediately.

Just then, Zhang Feng, Xu Zhesheng, and Xu Zhi also came to their senses and hurriedly chased after them out of the ward.

Zhang Feng is someone who can't keep a secret. These days, while taking care of Su Manman at the hospital, she chats with the nurses on her floor whenever she has free time, and has already become a familiar face to them.

Seeing this, she quickly went over and grabbed Su Manman's arm, forcing a fawning smile as she laughed and said to the nurses, "Oh dear, I'm so sorry, please excuse me! Manman and Azhe just had a little argument, and this girl bumped her head on the corner of the cabinet in a fit of anger. Please don't take offense!"

As she spoke, she forcefully pulled Su Manman behind her, repeatedly saying, "What murder! This is a hospital, a sacred place for saving lives. How could we dare to offend them here? Look at our family, we are all kind-hearted people, how could we do such a thing? This child is confused with anger and talking nonsense!"

"Don't worry, I'll take her back right away and comfort her, and she'll be fine."

However, it's one thing to joke and laugh with Zhang Feng normally, but it's quite another when you actually encounter a dispute involving personal safety.

Moreover, this is the VIP area, where there is no room for the slightest mistake.

An older nurse darted forward and snatched Su Manman from Zhang Feng's hands, shielding her behind her.

She wore a professional smile, but her eyes were sharp as knives. With a forced smile, she said, "Really? You family members are really careless. This wound looks quite serious."

She glanced up and down at the shocking strangulation marks on Su Manman's neck: "I see she's badly injured and emotionally unstable. I'll take her to get her wounds treated and calm her down first, then I'll take her back to her ward once she's more stable."

Xu Zhesheng, standing behind, frowned upon hearing this and wanted to step forward to argue.

Although he was handsome, his face was full of hostility and his eyes were bloodshot. Anyone could tell that he was on the verge of losing control.

Nurses in the hospital are used to all kinds of family disputes, and those who look gentle are often more terrifying when they start fighting.

Another nurse immediately understood and stepped forward, subtly blocking Xu Zhesheng's path, her gaze wary and distant: "Sir, please remain calm. The family members are quite emotional right now. Please go back to the ward and calm down so as not to agitate the patient."

After saying that, she winked at her colleagues behind her, and several nurses immediately surrounded Su Manman and quickly walked towards the nurses' station, leaving the three members of the Xu family alone in place.

Watching them leave, Zhang Feng stamped her feet anxiously, her voice trembling with worry: "Oh dear, what are we going to do? What if this girl really goes to the police? Zhe, say something!"

Xu Zhesheng, however, just stared intently at the end of the corridor, at the crumpled test report he had been clutching, without uttering a word.

After a long while, he turned around with a sullen face and walked back to the ward first.

The ward was a mess, with chicken soup that Zhang Feng had just spilled still on the floor, the soup mixed with porcelain shards splashed everywhere.

As Zhang Feng painstakingly cleaned up the mess, she kept muttering, "Sigh, what a wonderful free-range chicken soup! I went to the market early this morning to pick out the free-range chicken, and spent the whole morning preparing it, and now it's all ruined..."

As she wiped the floor, she cautiously looked up and carefully chose her words, asking, "But Zhe, what exactly happened? You and Manman were fine just a few days ago, weren't you? How did things suddenly turn out like this? You even got physical... Is this something really serious? Was it really necessary?"

Xu Zhesheng sat on the sofa with his back to her, his fingers gripping the report tightly.

He seemed not to hear Zhang Feng's words, remaining silent the entire time, like a silent stone statue, radiating a suffocatingly low pressure.

After a while, the steady and clear "tap-tap" sound of leather shoes on the tiles came from the corridor.

The voice was neither fast nor slow, yet it carried an invisible sense of oppression, drawing ever closer.

The ward door was pushed open from the outside.

Xu Zhesheng slowly raised his head, his gaze passing over the doorway.

What came into view was Assistant Wang's tall figure, and the powerful man behind him, Lu Zichuan.

Today he wore a well-tailored white suit with a burgundy silk shirt underneath, the collar slightly open. He looked less shrewd like a businessman and more refined and elegant.

He casually tucked one hand into his trouser pocket, his eyes radiating an innate arrogance.

Almost at the same moment Lu Zichuan stepped into the ward, Su Manman, whose wounds had already been treated, was brought back by the nurses.

With gauze on her neck and tear stains on her face, her pupils contracted sharply when she entered the room and saw the scene in the ward, especially when she saw Lu Zichuan.

The tense atmosphere in the ward seemed to be paused the moment Lu Zichuan appeared.

Upon seeing Lu Zichuan, the nurses immediately stood up straight respectfully and greeted him in unison, "President Lu."

Lu Zichuan nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping around the ward before finally settling on the report in Xu Zhesheng's hand, a faint, ambiguous smile curving his lips.

The nurses, having received the signal, quickly withdrew and gently closed the door behind them.

Ignoring the stares of others, Lu Zichuan walked straight to the other side of the sofa and sat down, his right leg naturally crossing over his left, a smooth and powerful movement, as if this were not a hospital ward, but a business meeting room where he was discussing official business.

Xu Zhesheng frowned, looking at him with confusion: "Why are you here?"

A slow, deliberate smile played on Lu Zichuan's lips.

After Su Manman was mistaken for one of his people by the hospital director, he arranged for her to stay in the best VIP room in the obstetrics and gynecology department, and he would come to report on Su Manman's condition to him every day.

It's just a hospital room; there's no need for him to make a special trip to tell people to move out. Besides, he can also find out about Su Manman and Xu Zhesheng from here, killing two birds with one stone.

He received the news immediately after Su Manman was beaten.

Without even thinking, Lu Zichuan knew that Xu Zhesheng must know about his oligospermia.

"I heard the dogs were fighting, so I came to see what was going on."

He spoke casually, but his eyes conveyed a half-smile.

Xu Zhesheng understood his unspoken meaning perfectly. He gripped the medical report even tighter, his voice almost forced out from his throat: "President Lu seems very interested in my affairs. Shen Zhiyi wants to get involved, so does Su Manman want to get involved too?"
