Darkness descends.

The hospital was bustling despite the night.

Many people couldn't sleep, and those who were asleep were mostly awakened. A lot of individuals followed the commotion to see what was happening. Witnessing leaders exchanging heated argunts was quite rare.

"The patients need to rest."

"Leaders, calm down."

"Yes, both of you, calm down."

"Xiao Liu, quickly get so water for the two leaders."

The hospital leaders tried to diate, and a nurse imdiately fetched water.

After venting his anger, Dong Xuebing felt sowhat relieved. The officials from Cheng Gang County had no decency. If you didn't stand up to them, they thought you were easy to bully. Dong Xuebing had encountered nurous instances of being challenged today, and these Cheng Gang County people had misjudged their target. They should not have challenged Dong Xuebing, who nearly lost his wife and child because of them. Until now, they hadn't even offered an apology, persistently blaming Huilan for the incident. Despite all this, the Cheng Gang County officials confronted him as if they were righteous. The fate of Zhou Wei and others showed that these people hadn't learned their lesson. He gave them a lesson tomorrow that they would rember forever.

In the blink of an eye, Dong Xuebing had a plan to deal with them.

"Director, the water is here, the water is here." The nurse ca with a cup.

"Why are you giving it to ?" The hospital director imdiately said, "Give it to the two leaders."

Deputy County Mayor Wang waved his hand angrily, and Dong Xuebing didn't ask for it either. What was the point of drinking water? Dong Xuebing could scold these Cheng Gang County people for three days and nights without water.

The situation reached a standstill.

Dong Xuebing was enjoying himself while Deputy County Mayor Wang wanted to save face. Knowing he couldn't win an argunt, he didn't get agitated.

Suddenly, a nurse hurriedly walked in from a distance. "Director and Secretary Zhou's blood pressure has dropped. Dr. Zhang asks for you to take a look."

The director furrowed his brows. "Alright."

The Deputy County Mayor, Wang, expressed concern. "I'll co with you."

It seed like he cared about Secretary Zhou. Still, everyone knew that Deputy County Mayor Wang was finding an excuse to leave and avoid the confrontation with Mayor Dong. Everyone could see it. Deputy County Mayor Wang was forced to escape. Dong Xuebing's tongue was not only sharp but also on point. He spoke rapidly, leaving Deputy County Mayor Wang with no chance to respond. As soon as he said a few words, Dong Xuebing could imdiately counter them. Anyone, not just Deputy County Mayor Wang, would find it challenging to argue with him.

Many patients and nurses looked at Dong Xuebing strangely. They had never seen a deputy county-level leader who could effectively scold people.

Dong Xuebing glanced at Deputy County Mayor Wang, who was walking away. He didn't linger here. He glanced at the two Cheng Gang County officials who had confronted him earlier. Seeing them avoiding his gaze, he swaggered under everyone's gaze and went downstairs.

Downstairs.

Inside the ward.

Dong Xuebing saw his wife awake as soon as the door opened, leaning against the bed. When she saw him coming in, Xie Huilan smiled at him.

"Woken up?"

"Yeah, just woke up."

"I've booked the plane tickets. You can go back with comrades from Fen Zhou City tomorrow morning."

"Haha you had arranged my itinerary. Alright, listen to my little husband this ti."

"Hey, I think you are feeling better now. Your speech is much smoother. Did that nap just now help a bit?" Dong Xuebing sat on the bedside.

Xie Huilan nodded, "Much better."

"That's good. I was worried you might struggle with the flight." Dong Xuebing knew that Huilan was fine. He had already used REVERSE to heal her injuries. Now, she only needed rest for physical and ntal recovery. By tomorrow, Huilan will probably be able to jog without any problems.

"You were scolding people just now," Xie Huilan smiled.

Dong Xuebing sweated, "How did you know?"

"You, with that loud voice of yours, even people on the first floor probably did. Hehe."

Dong Xuebing didn't care, saying, "They provoked . I greeted Deputy County Mayor Wang, and he ended up yelling back at . I can't lose to him. I've seen through the people of Cheng Gang County. This place breeds a bunch of scoundrels. After you leave, I'll make them suffer thoroughly and rember the lesson."

"Take it easy."

"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

"Alright, what about old Liao and the others?"

"I asked them all to go back and have dinner and rest. Director Liao and the others were busy enough today. Sigh, people can't be compared. Look at your people, then look at the folks from Cheng Gang County. They are not on the sa level. The environnt shapes the people. I guess I believe that now."

"It's not that serious. While conducting research at the school in the afternoon, I interacted with so people. The students and teachers here are still very simple."

"That's because the leaders at the top, like Li Zhixin, are not upright, and the leaders below won't improve."

"Hehe, they ssed with you, and it's like they've inherited the bad luck of eight lifetis. Your words hit them too hard. Cheng Gang County officials surely still have so integrity."

"Heh, I didn't see any."

"Let's not talk about that. I am hungry."

Dong Xuebing imdiately exclaid, slapping his forehead. "Look at my mory. You haven't had dinner yet. The hospital's food is still here. I'll keep it for you. Otherwise, I'll go and reheat it."

Xie Huilan smiled. "I want to eat braised pork belly."

Dong Xuebing hesitated. "Can you eat that? You're just recovering."

"I can eat." Xie Huilan stretched lazily, lying there, unsure if she was weak or just pretending. "Order a portion for ."

Dong Xuebing naturally agreed. "Sure, you wait."

After going out, he asked for the phone numbers of several restaurants and called them. Still, no one was willing to deliver, claiming it wasn't part of their services. Dong Xuebing had no choice. He drove out, looking for the nearest restaurant. Seeing the facade, he thought it was too rustic, probably not tasty. He continued driving and arrived at a relatively decent restaurant after about ten minutes. He ordered braised pork belly, rice, and a few vegetables. When the food was ready, he feared the dishes might get cold. So, he quickly jogged back to the car and drove back at the fastest speed.

In the ward, Dong Xuebing pushed the door open, panting. "The food is here, the food is here."

Xie Huilan had just exited the bathroom and slowly walked towards the bed.

Seeing this, Dong Xuebing hurriedly put down the things and went to support her. "Look at you. You just recovered and are already getting out of bed. Be careful, I'll help you."

"Hehe, I'm fine now."

"How could you be fine? Take it slow, take it slow."

After helping his wife onto the bed, Dong Xuebing breathed a sigh of relief. He then gets the lunchbox and dishes, serving them individually before his wife. "Does it sll good?"

"Delicious."

"Then eat more."

"Why is it so slow?"

"They didn't deliver, and I had to go out to buy it."

Xie Huilan reached for the chopsticks to eat, but Dong Xuebing stopped her. He couldn't bear to let his wife even lift a finger. He sat tightly on the bed, put a piece of braised pork on a piece of rice, and handed it to her, blowing on it gently. "Hmm, eat."

Xie Huilan smiled slightly, elegantly opening her mouth and chewing the food carefully. After a while, she softly humd, "The taste is good."

"Eat a bite of rice, too."

"Mmm, sure."

"Open your mouth, ahh."

The door suddenly opened, and a nurse changed Huilan's dressing. Seeing this, she was also startled and said, "How can you eat braised pork belly? It's too greasy. This won't do."

Dong Xuebing turned around and said, "It's fine."

Xie Huilan chuckled. "Just a few pieces. Not too much."

"Well" The nurse looked at Dong Xuebing but swallowed the words she was about to say. She didn't want to provoke him at this ti, especially after hearing his loud scolding earlier. The little nurse didn't want to be scolded.

Having a al.

Xie Huilan is full.

After glancing at her, Dong Xuebing finally started eating. He scraped the leftover at and rice that Huilan had left into his mouth. It was cold, but it would do.

Xie Huilan was surprised. "You haven't eaten yet?"

"Where's the ti to think about that?" Dong Xuebing ate heartily.

Ten minutes later, Dong Xuebing's stomach was also sowhat bloated and full. However, he didn't have a mont to spare. Seeing that Huilan's hair was still a bit ssy, he went to the bathroom to get a warm wet towel and carefully wiped her hair, then wiped her face and arms. Very attentive. "Want so fruit? I'll peel an apple for you."

Liao Yimin and the officials from Funan City bought the fruits.

Dong Xuebing picked up one, washed and peeled it, and then fed it to his wife piece by piece.

Xie Huilan had a smile on her lips and ate without reservation. She looked at Dong Xuebing with a very gentle gaze. "Xiao Bing."

"Yeah?"

"Sister Xie's leg is itchy. Scratch it for ."

"Hey, your hands can move, right?"

"Hehe, I'm too lazy to bend over. Just on the outside of the calf."

Dong Xuebing lowered his head and found the right spot, scratching with his nails. "Is it okay now?"

"A bit more to the left."

"Here?"

"A bit more to the left."

"Here?"

"Alright, feels comfortable now." Xie Huilan leaned back with satisfaction, lazy. "My husband knows how to take care of people. Co, kiss ."

Dong Xuebing looked at the door of the ward, then bent down and kissed her. "You, when you're not injured, you're like this. After being injured, it's still the sa. Just like an empress, needs to be taken care of."

Xie Huilan smiled and touched his back, holding it in her hand. "So, my little husband is still the best. Quickly transfer back. I have decided. In the future, when we live together, I'll occasionally wash so dishes to help my little husband share the household chores. Hehe."

Dong Xuebing was speechless. "Just washing a few dishes, and you call it occasionally helping share household chores?"

"Hehe, it's just a gesture."
