star wife is a bit sweet

Chapter 421 Enough to Shock
Cannibalism is soft, the teachings of the ancestors are indeed correct.

After skipping over some key points, Shen Zhixin couldn't help asking, "Is it so obvious?"

"That's right, your eyes are bright."

Shen Zhi felt embarrassed, and suddenly remembered the time in Yishi.

She has been wandering. Walking at home and on the verge of urging marriage with Zhang Ming at the same time, when Zhou Liqian came, although she was apprehensive, she looked at him like their dog saw ham sausage, almost wagging its tail.

At this time, it was said that Cao Cao had arrived, and Zhou Liqian had already come out of the living room, carrying Shen Zhixin's bag in his hand, with a dignified expression.

kindness?
They just agreed an hour ago to stay here tonight, why did they suddenly change their minds?

Shen Zhixin cast a puzzled look at him.

Seeing this posture, Su Peiqin knew that Zhou Liqian was going to leave, so she also tried to persuade her to stay: "I'm going back after I haven't sat down for a long time, are you not giving auntie face?"

Zhou Liqian smiled apologetically, "Auntie, the plan has changed this time, just now my family called me, and I have to deal with something very important in person, I promise you, next time I will come to make amends in person."

"It's too far-fetched to make amends or not." Su Peiqin is a very sensible person. Since they had something to do, she didn't force them to stay. She sent them to the door and explained: "Be careful driving at night, next time Let's play together again."

"Okay, Aunt Su and Uncle Lu, go back, you don't need to send it off."

Shen Zhixin smiled sweetly. As soon as the car drove out of the farm, she closed the window.

"What's wrong?" Shen Zhixin asked with her head turned.

Zhou Liqian frowned, "Aunt Li called just now."

The light smile on his face has completely faded away, and he has become a little indescribably cold, "Mom took an overdose of sleeping pills this afternoon, and she was rescued just now."

"What?" Shen Zhixin's complexion changed suddenly, and she said with some uncertain suspicion: "Is it a sleep problem or..."

"Dr. Chen diagnosed it, and the dose she took was enough for shock."

Shen Zhixin's palms were covered in cold sweat. It seemed that Zhou's mother was planning to commit suicide.

She murmured for a while, her mouth trembling slightly, "Aren't sleeping pills a prescription drug, and the hospital usually doesn't prescribe more. How can she have so many doses of sleeping pills?"

The car stopped just before a traffic light.

Now it's the rush hour, and a major traffic accident just happened at the intersection, and the traffic ahead is blocked.

Zhou Liqian's frown deepened, he turned the car around ninety degrees, and drove directly towards a one-way street on the side.

"Her menopause has arrived, and her anxiety attacks are becoming more and more obvious. The family doctor generally has preparations at home to stabilize her sleep quality. If you keep the previous few times, it is probably enough for a bottle."

Shen Zhixin gasped.

Is this premeditated?

She couldn't imagine that Zhou's mother, who had always been domineering, would make such a defiant move.

Zhou Liqian handed his mobile phone to Shen Zhixin, "Call Dad and tell him to come back quickly."

Shen Zhixin quickly took it, found Zhou's father's number in the address book, dialed the number, and got through in just two calls.

is a woman's voice.

"Aqian, your dad is drinking tea in the garden, you wait a moment, I'll give him the phone."

"Okay...it's troublesome." Shen Zhixin bit the bullet and replied.

It seems that the owner of this voice should be the Aunt Qi that Zhou Liqian was talking about.

After Zhou's father got the phone, Shen Zhixin briefly explained the matter, there was a moment of silence, and then a thick male voice came out.

"I'll book the earliest flight back right away, and I'll trouble you to take care of the family first."

"Okay." Shen Zhixin replied respectfully, after hanging up the phone, she didn't mention a word about the episode just now.

The weather is going to change here, it's better for her to shut up.

It was almost an hour when the two arrived at the People's Hospital.

They went straight up to the third floor along the elevator, and turned left. This is the VIP ward of the hospital.

Li Guifen walked back and forth in the corridor anxiously, and when she saw Zhou Liqian, she hurried up to meet her.

"How's mom?"

Zhou Liqian's face was gloomy, and through a glass panel on the door of the ward, he could vaguely see the figure lying inside.

Li Guifen has worked in Zhou's family for nearly 20 years and has a very close relationship with Zhou's mother.

She wiped the corners of her eyes, "Madam just had her stomach washed, so I have to refrain from eating and rest for a few days."

Shen Zhixin almost got goosebumps all over her body.

She usually checks her body, and it would be deadly for someone to do a gastroscopy, let alone a gastric lavage.

Zhou's mother's health is not good, such a toss will definitely hurt her vitality.

"What's going on?" Zhou Liqian asked in a low voice.

Although he looked as cold as usual, there was actually a slight change in his eyes.

His pupils sank a little more, and his thin lips were tightly pursed into a straight line.

Shen Zhixin held his hand subconsciously, "Don't worry, I'll accompany you to ask the doctor about the situation later."

"kindness."

Zhou Liqian nodded slightly, and turned his gaze back to Li Guifen.

The eyes of the woman on the bench were slightly red, and she raised her hand to wipe her eyes, "Madame came back at noon today, her complexion was very bad, and she kept saying that she was dizzy, and she hadn't eaten lunch yet, so I asked me to bring her a glass of water. After the cup was put down, I went to the kitchen to cook, and when it came up again..."

Li Guifen broke down in tears, "I, I just saw the medicine bottle on the bedside table."

Zhou Liqian lowered his head with a complicated expression.

Shen Zhixin knew that he was blaming himself.

What I said at noon was a bit heavy, and Zhou's mother was also at fault for this matter, and she was also one of the instigators.

Later, Zhou Liqian asked Li Guifen to go back first.

In addition to going to the doctor to understand the situation, he also needed the hospital to send nurses and pay medical expenses, and almost all of them left.

Shen Zhixin carefully pushed open the door, and walked in lightly.

She must guard Zhou's mother here first.

Putting her handbag on the sofa beside her, she just turned her head and found that Zhou's mother's right hand was exposed outside at some point. The originally aggressive person suddenly lay quietly opposite her, Shen Zhi felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

There was still a medical record list on the side table, which listed a series of drugs and equipment used for gastric lavage. Shen Zhixin's hands shook uncontrollably, and several receipts rustled.

When Zhou Liqian came back, he found someone standing there in a daze, motionless.

"Shen Zhixin." He called her, but the person in front of her didn't move at all, and there was no reaction at all.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhou Liqian frowned, and finally couldn't help pushing her.

"Ah?" She suddenly came back to her senses, and hooked the corners of her lips at him with a pale face, "I...it's fine."

"Ah Qian, why don't I go back first." It was rare for her not to follow, but to propose it herself.

Zhou's mother is emotionally unstable now, if she wakes up and sees herself again, Shen Zhixin will not be able to explain it.

When Shen Zhixin returned home, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

She went upstairs with big bags and small bags, and took out the casserole that had been dusty for a long time in the cupboard, and started to clean the medicinal materials and stew chicken soup according to the method that Shen's mother said last time.

For Zhou's mother, she has never been ruthless.

There is a saying that why should a woman make things difficult for a woman, as long as she thinks of what she has experienced for so many years, no matter how much she hates her, it seems that she can temporarily put it aside.

As soon as she boiled the water, the phone on the table rang.

"Aqian." Shen Zhixin swiped the answer button and called out very naturally.

On the other side, Zhou Liqian's stern face finally showed another expression.The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and because he was in the ward, he deliberately lowered his voice, "Are you home?"

The driver had already left work at this point, so Zhou Liqian could only go downstairs and call an online car-hailing car.

Shen Zhixin nodded, suddenly remembered that he couldn't see, and responded in a low voice.

"Wait a minute, I'll go find the earphones first."

She put her phone on speakerphone and began a carpet search of the living room.

The rustling noise became louder and louder, and after 2 minutes, the phone was finally connected again.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Liqian frowned, why is she still in the living room so late.

Shen Zhixin was in the kitchen with her earphones plugged in. She had just put the prepared three-yellow chicken into the pot and added herbs like Codonopsis pilosula before wiping the water from her hands and saying, "I'm making soup."

"Is Mrs. Zhou awake? What did the doctor say?"

"Not yet." Zhou Liqian raised his head and glanced to the right. The woman on the hospital bed had her eyes closed and her face was extremely pale.

"You make soup..."

"Well." Shen Zhixin paced to the living room and sat down, "She is so seriously ill this time, she needs to replenish her body, and you haven't slept well in the past few days, so you just have a drink together, although I am not good at cooking How about it, but good medicine tastes bitter."

What a messy description.

Zhou Liqian's usual cold eyes were still unobtrusive, "You don't need to be busy, Aunt Li will prepare."

At home, Shen Zhixin had just changed her position and was lying down, when she suddenly patted herself on the head, "How could I have forgotten this!"

The corners of Zhou Liqian's lips curled up, "Forget it, I'll send it over tomorrow."

She has enough heart.

"it is good."

After saying this word, both of them were silent for a while.

After such a big incident, no one can feel better.

After a while, just when Zhou Liqian thought she was falling asleep, Shen Zhixin's gentle voice suddenly came from the receiver.

"When Mrs. Zhou wakes up, you are not allowed to speak to her anymore, even if you mention me, you have to bear it." The patient is a big one, and Shen Zhixin doesn't want to stir up trouble because of himself.

Zhou Liqian frowned, and finally responded in a low voice, "Well, I have my own measure."

"Where is Dad, did you say when you will be back?"

Thinking of Father Zhou, she added one more sentence.

Zhou Liqian pursed his lips and said, "He just boarded the plane and will arrive tomorrow morning."

"Okay, then I'll come see you tomorrow."

"Go to bed early."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Liqian's soft face became condensed inch by inch.

The thumb of his right hand rubbed the screen of the phone back and forth, because the back panel was already slightly hot because of holding it for too long.

Zhou's mother's voice suddenly came from the room.

"when did you come?"

He raised his head suddenly, only to realize that the person whose eyes were closed had woken up at some point.

Zhou Liqian quickly got up from the sofa and walked over.

"Mom, you're awake."

"Don't call me mom." Zhou's mother's voice was still weak, and she was panting slightly even after she said a word, "I can't afford Mr. Zhou's call."

The person beside the bed subconsciously tightened his hands.

"I'll call you a doctor."

He almost ran away.

Walking in the long corridor of the hospital, the gray and white flag lights support a few lights.

Bit by bit of the past flashed through his mind, and he suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly.

What could have been solved by simply ringing the bell, Zhou Liqian insisted on unnecessary.

Five minutes later, Dr. Chen entered the ward with him.

After the routine examination, the nurse fed Zhou's mother some water, and her complexion gradually improved.

"Patients must have a good rest these two days. It is best to have a light diet and not get angry."

"Okay, please trouble Dr. Chen."

Zhou's mother, who had regained some energy, seemed very uncomfortable, she frowned, "When can I be discharged from the hospital?"

"Probably not that fast." Dr. Chen helped her adjust the drip speed with a smile, "Ms. Jiang just had her stomach washed, and she has to stay in the hospital for observation for a few days."

"No, I'm going home tomorrow."

Persevering, she turned her gaze to Zhou Liqian again, "Call Wenda to the house.",
"Doctor Wen is not in City C." Zhou Liqian replied blankly: "Country M has a research on biological genes, and he won't come back so soon in the short term."

It seemed that even God was having trouble with her.

Mother Zhou simply stopped talking.

It was late at night, and the passport guard often came in to wipe her face. At this time, Zhou Liqian sat quietly on the sofa beside him.

"Mr. Zhou, just leave it to me. You can go to the next room to rest for a while."

"No need." He insisted on not moving, "I can just lean on the recliner here for a while."

"But like this..." Before the little girl could say the word cervical spine, she was interrupted by Zhou's mother in a cold voice, "He is an adult, and he knows what he should and should not do, so there is no need to persuade him."

"Yes." The nurse smiled mischievously, and after helping Mother Zhou get everything done, she took the door lightly and walked out.

The room fell into silence again.

Zhou's mother was lying in her clothes, but her eyes were always open. She looked at the ceiling in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking about.

The relationship between mother and child is suffocating.

Zhou Liqian simply lowered his head and took out his mobile phone. It was three o'clock in the morning, and a message alert suddenly flashed on the main page.

Zhou Liqian clicked in, it was a picture sent by Shen Zhixin.

The chicken soup is ready, and someone is proudly showing off his achievements.

The heaviness in his heart suddenly eased.

A night passed quickly, and tomorrow morning, he could see that smiling Yanyan face again.

The room did not know when there was a sound of steady breathing, and when Zhou Liqian looked up again, Zhou's mother had already fallen asleep.

The night was cool, and the woman's right hand was hanging out. Because of the injection of the medicine, there was an obvious bruise on the back of the hand.

Zhou Liqian frowned, and after a while, he got up and tucked in the quilt for her, then turned the bedside lamp to the darkest, and then returned to the sofa.

In the darkness, the woman on the bed tossed and tossed, the pain was unstoppable, and her lungs were full of sadness.

A tear fell from the corner of Zhou's mother's eye.

When he woke up again, Father Zhou was already sitting opposite him.There was still a handbag at his feet, and there was a trace of tiredness on his dusty face.

"Dad." Zhou Liqian called out lightly.
