66: Chapter 66: On Television News?
Shanghai.
First Renmin Hospital.
After the X-ray was taken, they waited for the report to co out.
Xiao Fei sat on a chair to rest.
Beside him was Tang Yuxin, her face full of worry.
The three babies lay quietly in the stroller, as if they could sense their father was hurt, being unusually well-behaved and silent.
“Hubby, does it hurt?”
“No, it doesn’t.
Don’t worry.”
Xiao Fei rubbed Tang Yuxin’s head and smiled, “Your hubby’s tough.”
“Tough?
Of course he is.”
Su Qingyan, standing nearby, chid in, her face full of amazent.
“Yuxin, you didn’t see it.”
“Earlier, your husband looked like he was starring in a martial arts movie—leaping into the air and kicking a massive… fence clear away with one whip of his leg.”
Halfway through, Su Qingyan spread her arms wide to gesture just how “massive” the fence was.
“Alright, enough.
I’ve heard you tell this story several tis already.”
Tang Yuxin sighed as she spoke.
“I’m sorry, hubby.
It’s my fault for not watching the babies closely just now, giving those traffickers the chance.”
“It’s not your fault.”
Xiao Fei said softly.
“Things were so chaotic in that situation, anyone would’ve been the sa.
But the babies are safe, aren’t they?
Right, Da Bao?”
“Ya… ee-ya…”
Da Bao wiggled his tiny arms, as if responding to Xiao Fei—or perhaps comforting his mom.
Tang Yuxin gently leaned her head against Xiao Fei’s chest, nuzzling him as she greedily inhaled his scent.
Watching from the side, Su Qingyan rolled her eyes dramatically.
At that mont, a doctor in a white lab coat walked over with the report in hand.
“Mr.
Xiao, your report is out.”
“How is it?”
Tang Yuxin imdiately stood up and asked.
“Doctor, is my husband’s leg okay?”
“Hmm, it’s not too serious, just a minor fracture.”
As he explained, the doctor looked up, rather astonished, at Xiao Fei.
“Mr.
Xiao, your physique is remarkable.
I can’t imagine—based on what you’ve described, kicking a road divider flung by a car in the middle of the street… and only sustaining a minor fracture…”
“Tsk tsk, this kind of thing defies dical common sense.”
“But then again, the world is full of wonders.
Mr.
Xiao probably experienced an adrenaline surge during a mont of crisis as a father and husband, unlocking extraordinary strength, right?”
“Regardless, Mr.
Xiao, you should rest for the next little while.”
Tang Yuxin nodded and quickly asked, “Does this an he needs to stay in the hospital, Doctor?”
“Mrs.
Xiao, that won’t be necessary.
Mr.
Xiao’s body is in excellent condition.”
The doctor laughed and shook his head.
“Though afterward, we’ll need to put a cast on it, prescribe so dication, and I’ll explain a few things about diet and lifestyle.
Just co back for a follow-up in half a month.”
Hearing this, Tang Yuxin finally let out a sigh of relief.
Xiao Fei didn’t mind either way.
He understood his physical condition.
Even without any treatnt,
with his current level of fitness, he would heal completely in just a few days.
However, to avoid worrying Tang Yuxin, Xiao Fei allowed the doctor to put a cast on his right leg as instructed.
With crutches in hand, Xiao Fei, under Tang Yuxin’s care, boarded the car soon after.
Since Xiao Fei was injured, the task of driving fell to Tang Yuxin.
Soon, the three of them and the babies returned to Jinyu Huafu.
As soon as the door opened, Xiao Fei was greeted by Xiang Zilan, quietly sitting on the floor by the entrance.
She looked up at him and let out a soft, “ow~.”
She then got up and padded over to Xiao Fei, sniffing at his cast before looking up again.
“ow~?”
“I’m fine, don’t worry, Xiang Zilan.”
“ow ow~”
Watching this, Su Qingyan couldn’t help but sigh, “This ragdoll cat is just too empathetic.”
Xiao Fei hobbled over to the sofa on his crutches and sat down.
He then pulled out his phone and sent a ssage to a certain soone in charge.
And so…
those two human traffickers would now be judged for their cris at the harshest sentencing level available under the law.
Forget about being a shareholder of JPMorgan Chase and Walt Disney—just being the chairman of Shengshi Entertainnt was enough for Xiao Fei to ensure they faced the maximum consequences.
That evening…
“Hubby, I’ll cook dinner tonight.”
“You?”
Xiao Fei raised an eyebrow as he looked at Tang Yuxin.
“Are you sure?
Don’t blow up the kitchen.”
“Don’t underestimate !”
Tang Yuxin puffed out her cheeks indignantly, placing her hands on her hips.
“Don’t forget, I managed just fine on my own before eting you!”
But nearby, Su Qingyan suddenly seed to recall sothing.
Her expression turned odd.
“Yuxin, are you really going to cook?”
“Wh… what’s wrong?
Don’t think I’m still like I was during my study-abroad days!
I can cook now!”
Hearing their exchange, Xiao Fei grew suspicious.
“Sister Su, is Yuxin bad at cooking?”
“I wouldn’t say bad.”
Su Qingyan carefully chose her words and replied, “At the very least… the nutrition will probably be decent, I guess?”
“Yanyan!
What kind of weird comnt is that?!”
“Hahahahaha… relax, relax.
I’ll handle dinner tonight—it’ll count as paying my al expenses for crashing at your place these last couple of days.”
With that, Su Qingyan stood up.
“Since you have an open kitchen here, I’ll make so Western food.
How about that?”
Having lived abroad for many years, Su Qingyan clearly knew how to make Western cuisine.
Xiao Fei and Tang Yuxin didn’t object.
And so, Su Qingyan busied herself in the open kitchen next to the living room.
At that mont, the sound of a news broadcast suddenly ca from the TV…
[And now, let’s turn to so dostic news.]
[This afternoon, in front of Shanghai Disneyland, a major hit-and-run incident occurred…]
Hearing this, all three of them—Xiao Fei, Tang Yuxin, and even Su Qingyan, who was cooking—looked over toward the TV.
It turned out that the speeding car from earlier had already hit soone before and fled the scene.
Then, at the entrance to Disneyland, it crashed into the dian barrier again.
The driver died on the spot.
“How despicable!”
Tang Yuxin, still upset about the afternoon’s events, redirected her anger toward the driver.
Hearing that the driver died on-site made her huff through clenched teeth.
“Serves them right!”
“If you hit soone, at least own up to it and stop!
In this day and age, with caras everywhere, did they really think they could run?”
But in the next mont, the news took a turn, playing footage from earlier involving Xiao Fei.
First, they showed surveillance footage from the entrance of Disneyland, capturing Xiao Fei leaping into the air and kicking away the divider before taking on the traffickers.
Then ca cell phone videos from other onlookers, all of which prominently featured Xiao Fei’s heroic actions.
Fortunately, the news blurred out Xiao Fei’s face.
However…
Xiao Fei’s mouth twitched slightly.
The news might have pixelated his face, but the videos taken by regular onlookers and uploaded online…
probably wouldn’t.
Looks like… he was about to get famous.
