Late at night, Xinyuan is still brightly lit, cars are coming in and out, and people are coming and going.
The family doctor hurriedly came with his assistant. After examining the two elderly people, they gave each of them a tranquillizer to take and hurriedly helped them into the room to rest.
Cheng Tianyuan was caught in the rain and originally only had a slight cold. Unexpectedly, his sudden anxiety triggered a high fever, which became more and more severe.
He rarely gets sick, but when he does get sick, he is violent and frightens everyone!
Fortunately, the family doctor was present, and he immediately arranged for antipyretic medicine and intravenous injection. After midnight, the fever finally began to subside, but his face was still very poor and he fell into a drowsy sleep.
Lin Qingzhi discussed a few words with the family doctor, quickly made arrangements, and turned back to the living room.
"Auntie, uncle's fever has begun to subside. I discussed with the doctor and added a little bit of tranquillizer into the suspension bottle to let uncle sleep peacefully first."
"Is it possible?" Xue Ling couldn't help but explain: "He is usually in very good health, and his blood pressure, blood lipids, and blood sugar are all within the normal range."
"Okay." Lin Qingzhi whispered: "The doctor also supports this. He said that my uncle may be too anxious and worried, causing his mental state to be very unstable, and he needs a little tranquillizer to assist."
Xue Ling answered quickly.
After settling the old man and the patient, everyone gathered in the big living room again.
Everyone stayed by the phone, all of them kept their phones open, and checked their mailboxes from time to time. Unfortunately, the kidnappers haven't given any information yet.
Chen Xinzhi frowned and asked: "Mom, has this matter been known to other relevant people? For example, the senior management of the pharmaceutical group? For example, Duoduo? Or the closest relatives at home?"
"No." Xue Ling said truthfully: "We were afraid that everyone would be worried together, so we only informed you at the first time and asked you to go home quickly and don't get into trouble."
Cheng Huanchong couldn't help but ask: "Where is Xiao Huzi? Uncle Heng and Uncle Huan are not here either?"
"None of them." Xue Ling replied.
Xue Yang scratched his head, frowned and cursed: "You bastard! How much do you want? I'd like to say something nice! I'll get a thousand cuts!"
"Don't worry." Wang Xiaoxiao whispered angrily: "Now is the most critical time for the family. The more this happens, the more calm we should be. Your impatience will only make everyone more anxious."
Xue Yang shrank his neck and muttered: "I know."
Lin Qingzhi glanced at the time on his phone and said softly: "It's almost three o'clock. I suggest that everyone don't stay here waiting for news. They must take turns to rest so that they can have the energy to deal with it tomorrow."
"Otherwise, you can go back first." Cheng Huanchong said, "I will just stay with mom, and everyone else should go back to the room to rest first. The police officers are outside, and the security guards are on duty. There will definitely be no danger at home."
Lin Qingzhi shook his head: "I don't have to go back. I have a change of clothes in the car, I can just stay here."
"I won't sleep." Xue Xin leaned on Chen Xinzhi's shoulder, her eyes dry and lifeless: "I can't sleep anyway, so I might as well stay with you."
"Don't worry." Xue Yang comforted him with his chest raised: "Brother will be fine. They must be arresting him for money. As long as we get the money in place, nothing will happen to him."
Cheng Huanchong lowered his eyes and murmured: "The other party was a bit cruel. Xiao Huang is still lying in the ICU. Money doesn't matter, just pay as much as you want. I'm just worried that they will hurt my eldest brother."
"You can't just turn off the pot and pick up the pot!" Xue Yang scolded angrily: "Go away! Don't talk nonsense! Go to sleep!"
Cheng Huanchong touched his nose and did not dare to say anything else.
Lin Qingzhi handed him a small cup of tea, and then patted his arm gently as a silent comfort.
Xue Ling squinted his eyes and looked out the window, and couldn't help but ask: "You...are you hiding something from me? Is that right?"
"No!" Xue Yang blurted out, then looked around suspiciously: "Where are you? What are you hiding?"
Chen Xinzhi and Lin Qingzhi looked at each other, secretly helpless.
"Mom, I can't hide anything from you. In fact, Ah Qing's people have found some clues earlier, but they can't be sure yet. Ah Qing's assistant has contacted the police, and the police are also following up."
Xue Ling did not look back and asked: "Of course...has been transferred out of the imperial capital?"
"Yeah." Lin Qingzhi whispered: "After they robbed the car, they drove straight to the outskirts, changed cars in a dilapidated old factory, one went west, one went south, and left in two directions.
We are currently fully pursuing the two vehicles, and I believe the police will have news soon."
"A dilapidated factory?" Xue Ling asked curiously: "Did you tell the police the clues?"
"They have also traced it." Lin Qingzhi explained with great confidence: "In another hour or two, there will definitely be good news."
Xue Ling sighed faintly: "You are all good children, and you don't want me to worry. Don't worry, your mother, I also came through the storm, and I can still handle this."
"Mom..." Xue Yang lowered his voice: "I...I don't know either. I didn't want to hide it from you."
After saying this, he glanced at Chen Xinzhi angrily.
Chen Xinzhi smiled slightly: "Aqing said that there is no big progress for the time being, so it's hard to say it, so as not to make everyone happy in vain."
"This is good news." Xue Ling smiled happily and whispered: "For us at the moment, any news is good news."
…
The sky was getting slightly brighter, and Cheng Tianyuan woke up.
He stared blankly at the familiar master bedroom. He felt a little restless at first, then suddenly woke up and sat up straight.
The next moment, I suddenly felt severe pain in my hand!
He belatedly noticed the hanging needle on his wrist, frowned and quickly pulled it out, then hurriedly opened the door and rushed out.
The corridor was empty and quiet. He wanted to shout but held it back.
It wasn't until he came outside the living room that he saw his wife at a glance.
I saw Xue Ling sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, silently looking out the window motionless, like a calm and stable mountain, silently carrying everything.
Xue Yang was nestling next to his mother with a big pillow in his arms, snoring gently and falling asleep.
Lin Qingzhi was sitting on the sofa, holding his temples with one hand, sleeping lightly. Cheng Huanchong was lying on his side, his head tilted on Lin Qingzhi's thigh. He was already asleep, but his hand was still holding on to his mobile phone.
Chen Xinzhi was sleeping on the sofa in the corner with Xue Xin in his arms. His long legs were stacked crookedly on top of each other.
Cheng Tianyuan hurriedly glanced at the children, his eyes fixed on Xue Ling's back again, and unknowingly there was a mist in his eyes, and the corners of his eyes instantly became moist.
Over the decades, this family has gone through many ups and downs, and it is still ups and downs today.
The old man goes away, gets older, and the children grow up one by one, but my wife has always been the backbone of the family. She has always supported the family with her gentleness and strength.
The couple had developed a tacit understanding over the years. Xue Ling quickly sensed his arrival and slowly turned her head to meet his eyes.
At that moment, the old couple looked at each other without saying anything, and both of them wetted their eyes.
