774 The Extraordinary Attack on the Princess's Waltz 2
Seeing that Ling Hanchu's reaction was not fake, the female doctor didn't want to believe that this upright, upright man who seemed to be very popular could actually be a villain who beat his own woman. She softened her tone and asked: "How long have you known your fiancée?
Already?"
"Three... years." In fact, although we have known each other for three years, the total time we have spent together is only three days at best.
"Three years? Have you been serving as a soldier outside for many years and don't know your fiancée's daily life?" The female doctor thought of another reasonable reason for Ling Hanchu.
"Yes!" Ling Hanchu secretly wiped his hands with cold sweat.
Fortunately, in order not to attract attention, he took off his military rank and only wore a military uniform. Otherwise, this lie could be exposed at a glance.
"That's no wonder." The female doctor's face softened a little. "After your girlfriend wakes up, you have to have a good talk with her. I suspect that she has been subjected to domestic violence for a long time, so that she is now extremely weak. She is just ordinary.
She can't bear the cold and fever..."
"Domestic violence?"
Ling Hanchu didn't hear the doctor's words clearly, only the two words "domestic violence" buzzed in his ears.
He suddenly remembered that he and Qiao Luoluo asked him nervously yesterday - "Are you not prone to domestic violence?"
Domestic violence!
She actually endured long-term domestic violence!
Damn it!
No wonder she called his father Qiao Xiongfei.
No wonder she came to him before dawn and asked him to find someone to protect his brother!
His hands couldn't help but clenched at his sides, and the anger in his chest instantly ignited the entire grassland. It was the fury in silence, like the magma buried deep under a volcano, with a calm shell and a turbulent interior.
Even so, the female doctor also felt that the air pressure in the room suddenly dropped, making people breathless.
Fortunately, the nurse returned with Qiao Luoluo's medicine. Ling Hanchu quickly put his arm around her shoulders and let the weak woman lean into his arms.
"Thank you." Qiao Luoluo thanked the doctor.
"You're welcome," the doctor looked at her kindly, "Do I need to call the police? I have been practicing medicine for so many years and have seen many incidents of domestic violence. Blind tolerance can only lead to intensified abuse. I hope you can consider calling the police."
"Thank you, but no need. I'm a stepmother. Even if I call the police..." Qiao Luoluo lowered his head, "So, let's forget it..."
Normally, Qiao Luoluo would not reveal her private affairs to strangers, but just now in the treatment room, the nurse who changed her dressing secretly asked her if Ling Hanchu, who was waiting outside, beat her like this and frightened her.
One jump.
She has already caused Ling Hanchu a lot of trouble, but she doesn't want Ling Hanchu to be misunderstood as a bad man who beats his wife.
Hearing Qiao Luoluo say that she was a stepmother, the female doctor immediately understood.
It is difficult for an upright official to resolve household affairs. Even if he calls the police, Qiao Luoluo will not be able to escape the fate of being beaten as long as he cannot stand on his own feet.
"You'd better get your little wife married as soon as possible." After resolving the misunderstanding, the doctor showed Ling Hanchu a kind smile.
*
After walking out of the doctor's office, Ling Hanchu hugged Qiao Luoluo into his arms. Qiao Luoluo subconsciously hugged Ling Hanchu's neck, but objected, "I can still walk on my own."
"Shh! Don't talk! You are still very weak, let me take care of you!" Ling Hanchu pursed his lips and held her tightly in his arms.
The two of them were so close that they could even feel each other's breathing clearly and smell the reassuring masculine breath on his body. Qiao Luoluo blushed and shyly hid his cheek in Ling Hanchu's chest.
Holding the soft and fragrant body in his arms, Ling Hanchu's heartbeat obviously accelerated. He felt very happy, but he couldn't suppress the deep guilt in his heart.
It's all his fault!
He should have found her earlier, so that she wouldn't have suffered for so long...
"Why don't you go home?" He carried her into the car. Although his tone was questioning, he had already made up his mind. Regardless of whether she agreed or not, he would never let her meet her domestic violence man again.
Home.
"Yeah." She huddled in the passenger seat and nodded meekly.
She can't go back!
Xing Jingxian already has such vicious thoughts towards her. If she goes back again, if she is not careful, her life will be ruined.
"But I have nowhere to go." There was unconcealable bitterness in her thin voice.
"Yes! Of course!" He looked sideways at her and smiled, "I'm going back to our home!"
His smile was gentle and bright. In such a small space, it was like the warm sunshine in winter, so warm and gentle that it made people want to cry.
Looking at that smile, Qiao Luoluo was slightly startled.
Just a smile made her suddenly feel at ease from the inside out, trusting him, relying on him, believing that as he said - no matter what, I have everything!
Could it be...that this is the charm of being a soldier?
Ling Hanchu's car drove all the way to a prosperous area in the city center and finally parked in an underground parking lot in a high-end boutique apartment.
"This is an apartment I bought when I first returned to City L. Because the location is very good, I will stay here when I come to the city and it's not convenient to go home."
While Ling Hanchu gave a brief introduction, he took Qiao Luoluo out of the car, took Qiao Luoluo in his arms and took the elevator all the way up to the twenty-sixth floor, opened the door and went in.
Qiao Luoluo glanced at it. The room was clean, but empty. There was only a bed and simple toiletries, not even pots and pans. It seemed that Ling Hanchu hardly lived here.
"This place is very simple now, but it will be better when it becomes our home!" He smiled warmly and put her gently on the bed.
Simple?
Qiao Luoluo lowered his eyes.
In a place like City L, where land is at a premium, maybe even if she worked hard all her life, she wouldn't be able to buy the smallest apartment in such a prime location, but he called it simple.
Maybe, this is the gap between her and him, can they... really be okay?
He took care of her and lay down, pulled the blanket on one side to cover her, and gently stroked her long, silky hair, "Want to eat something? You must be hungry after running all morning, right?"
Qiao Luoluo shook his head, "I'm not hungry."
"You have to eat even if you're not hungry," he insisted. "I'm ordering takeout. What do you want to eat?"
"Everything is fine." She lowered her eyes meekly again.
"Luoluo..." He sighed helplessly, "In front of me, you don't need to arm yourself. You can express your opinions at will, be willful, and make any demands... I will be good to you and pamper you.
, allowing you to be your truest self!”
"The porridge is ready, I want to drink porridge." Qiao Luoluo could only say casually.
Seeing her reluctance, Ling Hanchu pinched his brows feebly.
He could see that she had frozen his heart tightly with a castle, and the door of that castle could not be opened by him with just a few words.
