Chapter 1378: Someone knocked down his wife


    Afternoon.


    Around 3 o''clock.


    Cheng Gang County, the First People''s Hospital.


    Outside, the wind blew, making the ss shake with a creaking sound.


    In the hospital room, Xie Hun finally fell asleep after confirming that the child was okay. Under the influence of the REVERSE, Hun''splexion gradually improved, showing some color. Dong Xuebing stayed by her side, tirelessly wiping her face with a towel and assisting the nurse in changing Hun''s bandages. Watching his wife with blood-stained gauze on her hands and some abrasions on her body, Dong Xuebing felt a deep sense of heartache. He would rather bear all these injuries himself. It didn''t matter how he was, but his wife had always been delicate. She had never experienced such serious injuries before. He was genuinely distressed, and the anger inside him grew stronger.


    With both mother and child safe, Dong Xuebing''s mind became clearer.


    Just now, Hun''s subordinates gave strange looks to the leaders of Cheng Gang County. Dong Xuebing knew something was wrong. He immediately stood up and walked out of the hospital room.


    As the door opened, Liao Yimin and the Fenzhou City Education Bureau people stood in the corridor.


    "Mayor Dong."


    "Mayor Dong."


    "How is it going?"


    "Did Mayor Xie wake up?"


    A flurry of questions from Fenzhou City people showed their deep concern for Mayor Xie''s condition.


    Dong Xuebing replied, "She woke up and went back to sleep. Everything is fine."


    Liao Yimin, still somewhat frightened, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Fortunately. I knew Mayor Xie had good fortune, and she will pass this hurdle."


    Dong Xuebing expressed his gratitude, "Thank you all for your concern. The child might not have made it if Hun had arrivedter."


    "You''re too kind. We should do our part."


    "Yes, Mayor Dong, please don''t be polite."


    "It''s us who failed to protect Mayor Xie."


    These Fenzhou City officials were not willing to take credit for this.


    Dong Xuebing looked at them and said, "How did Hun fall?"


    Liao Yimin fell silent, and the other staff members behind him looked slightly annoyed. They nced around but remained silent.


    "What happened? Tell me." Dong Xuebing asked.


    Liao Yimin said, "Let''s go somewhere else. I''ll tell you."


    Dong Xuebing felt a sense of unease and agreed.


    They found a corner at the end of the corridor where no one was present. With a hesitant expression, they stopped, and Liao Yimin looked at Dong Xuebing.


    "Speak, Director Liao," Dong Xuebing urged.


    Liao Yimin exined, "We had lunch at Zhen Shui County at noon. Mayor Xie wanted to expedite the research, so she asked Deputy County Mayor Lu to send us off. We came directly to Cheng Gang County, contacted local education officials, and visited their key high school. The high school was newly built a few months ago. Next to it was the newly constructed County Party Committeepound of Cheng Gang County, which was still under construction. Due to the strong wind, the construction was halted today, and the workers were on break. Only Li Zhixin, the County Mayor, and a few leaders were inspecting the construction. After Mayor Xie finished researching the school, she was ready to leave. However, when she came out, she saw Li Zhixin and the others outside the new County Party Committeepound. Since they met, they had to say hello. Mayor Xie started chatting with them."


    Dong Xuebing asked, "And then?"


    "Then they went inside thepound. Li Zhixin introduced the construction of thepound to Mayor Xie. We didn''t go in and were waiting at the entrance," Liao Yimin said, taking a deep sigh. "It''s also our fault. If we had followed them in, maybe"


    Dong Xuebin squinted, "Hun was tripped?"


    "It wasn''t a trip," an official nearby couldn''t help interrupting, looking very upset.


    Liao Yimin sighed, "At that time, the wind had subsided around three or four levels. It wasn''t particrly strong, and if it were, we would have all gotten in the car and not stayed in thepound. Suddenly, there was a gust of strong wind, about six or seven levels, even more. It was a construction site, and the sand immediately started blowing. The leaders of Cheng Gang County were preparing to leave from a distance. But suddenly, some construction materials on the main building of the new County Party Committeepound were blown down by the strong wind. There were two boards and some scattered materials. Without wind, these things would have fallen under the building and not hit anyone. However, with the wind, especially those two boards, they directly slid with the wind toward the leaders of Cheng Gang County. The boards might not be heavy, but with the height of the building and the force of the wind, it would be quite challenging. If hit, even if not fatal, it would cause severe injuries. The boards were sliding horizontally towards them, and there were many falling objects from the construction."


    Dong Xuebing''s eyes tightened, "Hun was also below?"


    Liao Yimin said, "Mayor Xie was on there, but when the wind blew, she was afraid the wind would make the child catch a cold, so she covered her belly and stepped back. The construction materials should not hit Mayor Xie."


    "It didn''t hit her," another official said.


    Another clerk said, "That''s right, I saw it too."


    Someone nodded, "Mayor Xie was not even close to thending point of those boards, about six or seven steps away."


    Liao Yimin said, "Yes, but the people from Cheng Gang County were in a dangerous position. The falling objects were blowing in their direction. Then someone shouted something like Quick, getaway, protect Mayor Li,'' and the people from Cheng Gang County ran backward. Li Zhixin also ran fast. They were all in a panic. We thought Cheng Gang County people would definitely protect Mayor Xie ande out together, so we didn''t go over. Even if we had gone over, it would have been toote. We were at the gate, dozens of meters away. We couldn''t make it in time."


    Dong Xuebing''s face became increasingly stern. "Go on."


    Liao Yimin gritted his teeth and cursed, "The wind and sand were too strong, and visibility was very low. These damn people from Cheng Gang County ran to a safe ce and kept running even after that. Suddenly, they bumped into Mayor Xie. Over there, the wind was at their backs. Mayor Xie couldn''t stand steadily in the first ce. In the end, she was knocked down diagonally. We couldn''t see the specific situation. It was all sand and dust in the strong wind. When we heard Mayor Xie scream, we were all stunned. We quickly rushed up to rescue her, but when we got there" He paused, then sorrowfully said, "Mayor Xie was already lying on the ground, protecting her belly. The soil on the ground was slowly turning red with blood."


    Dong Xuebing exploded, "People from Cheng Gang County knocked Hun down."


    A staff hesitated, then said, "It might also be that they pushed her out. They thought of running away at that moment, losing all reason."


    Liao Yimin asked, "Who saw it?"


    "I saw a little, but not clearly," one person said.


    "I got sand in my eyes, but judging by how Mayor Xie fell, she might be pushed, not hit. The position doesn''t seem right for a collision," someone observant said.


    Dong Xuebing''s lips were trembling. "Who did it?"


    "Don''t know."


    "We didn''t see."


    "Yeah, it was chaotic at that time."


    "They all ran towards Mayor Xie."


    Liao Yimin understood Dong Xuebing''s current mood. He was also very angry. "Whether she was pushed or hit, Mayor Xie was injured by them. But the boards also fell when we finally rushed up to rescue her. The people from Cheng Gang County only turned back and saw Mayor Xie, who had fallen and was bleeding. Then, Li Zhixin''s secretary shouted that Mayor Xie slipped, directly shirking responsibility. He shamelessly imed that Mayor Xie identally fell by herself. We were furious then, but Mayor Xie fainted from the pain. Blood was flowing underneath her. We didn''t have time to argue with them. We quickly lifted Mayor Xie into the car and drove to the hospital." Liao Yimin took a deep breath. "Now, Mayor Xie and the child are out of danger. But this matter is not over. Where can you find people so heartless, even daring to push a pregnant woman aside to save themselves? This is not over!"


    "That''s right, it''s not over."


    "Damn, do they think we from Fen Zhou City are easy to bully?"


    "Mayor Xie''s injuries must not be in vain. We must seek an exnation."


    "Mayor Dong, now that you''re here, we have someone to rely on. What should we do?"


    Initially, these outsiders were at a disadvantage on someone else''s turf. Still, now that Dong Xuebing was here, everyone was full of confidence.


    What abilities did Dong Xuebing have?


    They are clearer than anyone else.


    Dong Xuebing didn''t speak, but his cold, icy gaze had already told the people from Fen Zhou City that he would not let this matter off.


    No wonder they were looking at Cheng Gang County''s people differently.


    No wonder Hun, who was usually cautious, would fall like this.


    Listening to their words, Dong Xuebing''s lungs were about to explode. So, people from Cheng Gang County knocked down Hun, and at that time, Li Zhixin and others still denied it.


    Not far away, a nurse from Hun''s ward came out, looked around, and finally saw Dong Xuebing at the end. "The patient woke up and is looking for you."


    Dong Xuebin didn''t move but looked at Liao Yimin and others. "You don''t need to worry about this matter anymore. It''s been a tiring afternoon for you all. Go back and rest."


    Liao Yimin said, "But Mayor Xie''s"


    Dong Xuebing said, "I will handle it. It''s just as well that I have an old score with them. I will settle both the old and new scores together." After saying that, he took a step and walked over.


    Seeing Dong Xuebing''s expression, the nurse couldn''t help but shiver. She didn''t know what had happened, but why did his expression change so suddenly from calm to this?


    The people from Fen Zhou City also exchanged nces. They had seen Dong Xuebin explode more than once before. However, this time, they felt scared. But now, Dong Xuebing''s wife and child were almost killed by people from Cheng Gang County. His anger was undoubtedly stronger than they had seen before.


    Everyone understood that the people from Cheng Gang County were in trouble.


    This matter was not over.
