t a lot of effort into studying it."Jade Bi Yao said, with a hint of irony.Both of them were in a bad situation, the plan had failed, and they both blamed each other, starting to accuse one another.Th...After twelve o'clock, ripples started bothering Little Six. She either wanted water or to use the restroom, but she was very measured, always keeping herself within Little Six's sight and never initiating conversation with the older woman next to her. The woman in the next bed tried to talk to her several times, but she would have Little Six help her go to the bathroom.

Xiao Liu, although alert, saw that Lian was just fidgeting and going to the toilet, constantly rubbing her chest, and her face looked very pale. He was sure she was unwell, not even acknowledging those who took the initiative to talk to her!

He rarely asked Lianyi two questions:

"Sister-in-law, if you're really uncomfortable, I'll go find a doctor."

The ripples just waved their hand and said:

"It's fine, I can bear it. You found a night shift doctor now, he's not a specialist, don't make things difficult anymore. I appreciate your concern."

"Don't be so polite, you're my sister-in-law. My second brother treasures this child very much. As long as you and the child are doing well, that's all that matters. Otherwise, he wouldn't have specifically asked me to stay and keep you company."

Little Six was also very clever and immediately smiled and said, which indirectly explained why he, as the younger brother, stayed behind to take care of his sister-in-law.

Ripple lay weakly, she had just dozed for a while and woke up again. She asked Xiao Liu to accompany her to the bathroom.

"You don't have to hold me up, just being with me is enough. I'll call you if anything happens."

Ripple said, although we're technically relatives on the surface, it's best to avoid any suspicion.

Xiaoliu also understood, so every time he would follow Riyue's footsteps. Whenever she came out of the restroom, he would always find an excuse to peek inside for a moment.

Thus, it continued until midnight. When Little Six was yawning uncontrollably, Ripples finally closed her eyes and rested.

The pregnant woman in the bed next to her also let out a sigh of relief.

"It's finally settled down, I can have a good night's sleep."

"Excuse me, sister. My sister-in-law is a little bit temperamental and she's been feeling unwell lately, so she might be acting a bit difficult. Please bear with her."

"It's okay, I'm pregnant too. I had it worse than her a few months ago. It gets better once you're further along."

Big sister casually said a few words, and she didn't have any interest in chatting. She leaned her body to one side and fell asleep after a while.

Because the woman's husband was returning to Changning City the next day, she did not stay with him tonight and sent him home to rest.

Before leaving, the man specifically instructed that he would come early to deliver breakfast and have his mother bring lunch. He also had a brief conversation with Xiao Liu, asking him to pay attention to his wife when taking care of his sister-in-law. He didn't need special treatment, just to call a doctor if anything happened. Xiao Liu readily agreed.

After a while, the woman also started to snore. Half an hour later, Xiao Liuzi began to snore as well. Lian Yi had slept a lot during the day, so she wasn't sleepy at this moment, but she still forced herself to quickly fall into deep sleep.

When it was three o'clock in the morning, Xiao Liu suddenly opened his eyes and got out of bed quietly. He first went to Lianyi's side and gently pushed her.

A ripple stirred, pushing her awake. But she didn't open her eyes, mumbling something incoherent and then turning away to continue sleeping.

Xiao Liu heard the ripples speaking, thinking the other person had woken up. But seeing the other person mumble a few words, turn over and fall asleep again, he left the ward.

Ripples lay on her ear, hearing the sound of the door closing, but she didn't open her eyes. She just smacked her lips and continued to pretend to be asleep.

After a while, she felt someone pushing her again. This time, she frowned and started grinding her teeth, muttering words she couldn't even understand, as if cursing someone, continuing to pretend to be asleep.

After a long time, the sound of the door opening rang out again, this time softer. The ripples remained unmoved, still lying on their side and grinding their teeth. Half an hour later, she heard the sound of the door closing.

Lián Yī didn't abruptly open her eyes. She only slightly creased one, then slowly widened it, adapting to the darkness. After a sweep of her gaze, she confirmed that Xiao Liù was temporarily gone.

She waited another five minutes, listening intently for any sound around her. Only after making sure the other party had truly left did she lift the covers and get out of bed, barefoot, and walk over to the next bed. She gently shook awake the older woman there.

When the elder sister woke up, she was startled to see a face so close to hers. Just as she was about to cry out, someone covered her mouth.

Ripple made a shushing gesture, leaning close to the other person's ear and saying:

"Big sister, don't make a sound, or you'll get into trouble too."

The elder sister always thought the woman in the next bed was suspicious. Hearing her say that, she immediately stopped talking. This was a hospital, and if the other woman really wanted to do something, she could call the nurses and the night shift doctor.

"Sister, while the person watching me is away, I'll make this quick."

The ripple whispered in the other's ear.

The older sister, with her mouth covered, couldn't speak back, so she just nodded.

"I was sold to Qiaojiagou by human traffickers. The people in their village are indifferent and unhelpful. My home is so far away, they weren't afraid I would run away, so they left me in the village to be the wife of that man."

I pretended to be leaving the village because of stomach pains, but they were watching me very closely, and since there were their people nearby, I couldn't run away at all.

"I'm heavily pregnant now, and it's inconvenient for me to move around. So I want to ask you to go to the police station to report this. I suspect that they have a network of contacts in this area, otherwise there wouldn't be any leaks."

After Ripples finished speaking, she tucked the note she had hidden away into the woman's hand. After a moment of thought, she added:

"Don't tell your husband, he's the big sister here, all thanks to you!"

After saying all that, Ripples let go of the other person's hand and returned to her own bed. She pulled the blanket over herself and continued to sleep.

Her heart was pounding like thunder in her chest, she was sweating cold, and she knew her feelings had come true. She just hadn't expected it to be this way.

A low voice came from the darkness.

"Sister, if you keep snoring, that person will be back soon."

The woman was startled again, then adjusted her breathing and started snoring. However, her mind was restless, tossing and turning in bed like a burning pancake. But because she was pregnant, she eventually fell asleep for the rest of the night.

Little Six ran out for a while, getting the woman he liked and bringing her to the base in the county city. Then he quietly returned to the hospital, the whole thing taking only half an hour. He was also afraid something might go wrong on the other side.

He tiptoed into the ward and found that the woman was still in the same sleeping position as when he left. The woman beside her bed was still snoring, and her snores were even louder.

The next morning, just as the sun was rising, Qiao Lao'er walked into the ward with a lunchbox. The husband of the big sister in the next bed not only carried a thermos lunchbox but also a suitcase, obviously preparing to return to Changning City.

The elder sister ate the meal her husband had brought, and while supporting her big belly, she said she wanted to send him away. However, as they walked from the ward to the hallway, she began clutching her stomach in pain, scaring her husband. He immediately called the day shift doctor, sending her to the treatment room.

Half an hour later, the man ran back to the ward with a pale face and started packing his things. pulling Xiao Shu's arm and dragging him to sit far away from the snake.Ripple, gazing at the dilapidated temple with its gaping roof, resolutely drove her carriage inside. She stopped it beside one o...
