Chapter 233: Uncovered a Secret

Chapter 233: Uncovered a Secret

Noticing the way the five kids were staring worriedly at Shao Qihai, Mu Jingzhe knew that their father-and-child relationship had eased up after this incident. Seeing that they were so worried, she didn’t force them.

However, since the kids weren’t leaving, she would have to stay behind to keep watch too. When Shao Qiyang saw that she had also stayed behind, he left instead.

Mu Jingzhe bought two foldable beds. In addition to the empty hospital beds in the ward, they were just perfect for them to squeeze in.

In the latter half of the night, Shao Qihai started to have a fever. Fortunately, after a drip, his fever subsided the next morning. Shao Qihai also regained consciousness completely.

Seeing that Mu Jingzhe and the five children were all there and were looking at him with concern, Shao Qihai heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he couldn’t help but grin. When he heard the five kids ask him how he felt with concern and even call him ‘Daddy’, he smiled even more happily.

His children had finally called him ‘Daddy’. They had finally forgiven him.

“I’m fine, I’m fine. These are just minor injuries. They’re nothing compared to injuries I’ve suffered before.” Shao Qihai didn’t want them to worry. Besides, he was telling the truth. Shao Qihai had been lying on his stomach last night. When he really couldn’t lie on his stomach anymore, he’d carefully turned over.

Mu Jingzhe quickly stepped forward to help, but Shao Qihai felt a little uncomfortable letting her see him naked. “Um… I’ll do it myself.”

Mu Jingzhe thought to herself that she had already seen it all last night, but she still stepped back and handed over the hospital gown next to her.

“Daddy, I’ll help you put it on. Don’t tear your wound.”

Shao Dong and Shao Xi cooperated and helped Shao Qihai put on the hospital gown. Little Bei helped him button up his shirt. Shao Qihai couldn’t stop grinning from ear to ear and praising them for being obedient. Then, he couldn’t wait to go to the bathroom.

Meanwhile, Mu Jingzhe quickly went to buy breakfast. She bought fried dough sticks, soy milk, steamed buns, and eggs for herself and the children. After taking a glance at the canteen, she thought for a moment and bought red dates, peanut porridge, and brown sugar eggs for Shao Qihai.

“You’ve lost too much blood. These can replenish your blood.”

Shao Qihai felt that the red dates and peanut porridge were alright, but the brown sugar eggs seemed more suitable for the pregnant women downstairs. “These brown sugar eggs… Why don’t you eat them? Didn’t you donate blood? You need some nourishment too.”

He already knew that Mu Jingzhe had donated blood for him, but he knew that if it were anyone else, given her personality, she would still have donated blood. After all, this concerned someone’s life. Nevertheless, he was still happy.

“I’ll just eat eggs.” Mu Jingzhe looked at Shao Qihai. “You don’t think that only women can eat brown sugar eggs, do you? Men can as well.”

“No, no.” He just felt like he was in confinement for some reason.

Because the food had been bought by Mu Jingzhe, Shao Qihai felt that it wouldn’t be good to have leftovers. In the end, he finished it all and felt so full that he burped.

Ji Buwang, who was carrying breakfast, stood at the door and looked for a moment. In the end, he lowered his hand and didn’t knock to enter.

Other than asking about his wound, the doctor also asked Shao Qihai if there were any sequelae from the many wounds on his body. As Mu Jingzhe and the kids were beside him, Shao Qihai didn’t want to say anything. However, the doctor did.

“Just tell me honestly. It’s fine even if your family knows this. You can’t hide it from them forever. If you don’t pay attention, your condition might get worse and you won’t be able to hide it from them anyway.”

“It’s not that serious. It’s just this shoulder and my left leg, which is more accurate than the weather forecast. I can know in advance whenever it’s about to rain, but that’s the only problem. Nothing else.”

“Then how many more problems do you want? Just these two are painful enough.” The doctor shook his head. “You people are good at everything, but you’re used to shouldering everything on your own. You have to communicate more with your family so that they can understand, support you, and care for you more.”

The doctor had seen many people who reported only the good news and not the bad to avoid making their families worry. The same applied to the elderly and children. Many elderly people had died from enduring too much pain. He had seen many such cases, so he couldn’t help but say a few more words.

After the doctor finished asking, he said that he was leaving. Before he left, he suddenly stood up and bowed before Shao Qihai in a very standard manner.

Shao Qihai reflexively returned the bow. The doctor smiled and slowly straightened his body. “I used to be a soldier too.” The doctor sounded very proud when he said this. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief. “Fortunately, you’re not saluting with your injured shoulder. Otherwise, the wound would have torn open and bled. I would’ve gotten into trouble again.”

The humorous doctor wiped away his nonexistent cold sweat and left.

Little Bei gazed at Shao Qihai worriedly. “Daddy, does it hurt?”

“It doesn’t. Not at all.”

“Then will your shoulder hurt when it rains in the future?” Shao Dong asked with a frown.

“No, don’t worry. It’s really fortunate that you kids are fine.” Even if it hurt a little, what was there to be afraid of? It would have been worth it even if he’d lost an arm to protect Shao Dong and Shao Nan. It wouldn’t even be an exaggeration to say that he wouldn’t have regretted it even if he’d died.

Shao Qihai didn’t say the part about him not regretting this. He only sighed with emotion, but Shao Dong could see the relief on his face. “We thought you didn’t care about us…”

“Of course I do. I care about you the most. I really didn’t do it on purpose previously. I faked my death and didn’t tell you for the sake of your safety. I had no choice…” Shao Qihai looked at the children. “I care about you more than about my own life. ”

If Shao Qihai had said these words before, the five kids might not have believed him. However, Shao Qihai had proved those words with his actions during this incident. For a moment, even Shao Dong couldn’t help feeling his eyes turn red.

“We misunderstood you, Daddy. I’m sorry. We could’ve told the reporters before, but we deliberately didn’t. We deliberately pissed you off and made everyone think you were no longer around…”

When they saw Shao Qihai’s bloody appearance with their own eyes, their deliberate revenge became a nightmare. They were really afraid that what had been reported would become the truth again, and they were powerless to bear it.

“Dad, thank you for being fine.” Shao Nan also spoke up. Little Bei and Xiao Wu’s eyes turned red, and they apologized.

Shao Qihai was already very touched, but when he saw the children crying together, he felt terrible. “It’s alright, it’s alright. Don’t cry.”

However, this wasn’t something that could be stopped in a short time. Shao Qihai was about to break down. He kept saying that they shouldn’t cry, but seeing that they weren’t stopping, he was forced to get off the bed and run out.

Shao Dong, Shao Xi, and the others were still staring at Shao Qihai’s back with red eyes, their faces filled with confusion. Mu Jingzhe, who had also been watching from the side with red eyes, let out an “Eh”.

Why had he run away just like that? Shouldn’t Shao Qihai have hugged the five children to completely untie the knot in their hearts and reconcile with them?

“Mommy, why did Daddy run away?”

“Maybe he remembered something. I’ll go take a look.”

Mu Jingzhe quickly chased after him. There was no one in the corridor or on the staircase. “Where did he go…”

Mu Jingzhe searched around again and, finally, in the small room where the cleaning lady kept her supplies, she saw Shao Qihai biting his hand to suppress his cries and crying like a dog.

Mu Jingzhe: “…”

She closed her eyes and shook her head vigorously. She wanted to think that she had seen wrong, but no, that wasn’t the case. She pinched herself, but it wasn’t a dream.

At that moment, the cleaning lady came to work and saw Shao Qihai, who was occupying her storage place. She said, mouthing the words to Mu Jingzhe, “Do you know him?”

Mu Jingzhe shook her head slowly. “No.”
