Luo Yingbai finally looked up, his face full of contempt: “Handle it? How? I’d say the problem is with your family.
Why else would someone specifically kidnap your daughter? Specifically smash your stall? Specifically beat you? The reason must be with you… Oh, did you mix something bad into your pies? Go back. I’ll contact the relevant departments to thoroughly check your ingredients and hygiene.”
Zhang Li roared: “What kind of attitude is this? I’m reporting you!”
Luo Yingbai opened the doorway: “Oh, go ahead. My brother is the chief.”
Zhang Li: “…”
He turned and walked away without another word, limping from anger.
He was carrying several lunch boxes and walked to the hospital room door, just in time to hear his wife and child talking inside. His wife’s voice was low: “Anyway, just listen to your mom. When your dad comes back, quickly apologize to him, don’t argue with him. Just tell him that it was because you were playing around that they kidnapped you, and it won’t happen again, understand?”
Immediately following was the daughter’s naive voice: “But I wasn’t playing around…”
His wife said: “If you weren’t playing around, why did those two people not kidnap other children? Ruirui, be good, just tell mom and don’t make dad angry anymore, okay? Dad works very hard outside…”
Seeing this seemingly familiar scene, Zhang Li could no longer listen. He strode into the hospital room and roared: “Stop talking! Shut up!”
His wife and child turned their heads together, their faces identical with terror.
This terror was like a sharp needle that instantly punctured Zhang Li’s anger, instead making this uneducated man feel a strange sense of desolation.
He had a difficult day, with all the hardships inflicted by strangers. But at this moment, seeing his daughter treated the same way, Zhang Li realized that these were actually given to her by himself and her mother.
In a corner of the hospital, someone was crying heart-wrenchingly.
If in this case, the one who died was his daughter…
Ruirui saw him silent and timidly said: “Dad, I’m sorry, I was playing around…”
“No,” Zhang Li took a deep breath, uncomfortably patting her head, “Dad doesn’t blame you. The bad guys are not good… Dad and Mom will protect Ruirui and stay far away from bad people.”
