"Much better. With the medicine you gave him, he's not in pain anymore, and he's been taking the herbal remedies too — he seems to be doing well." In truth, Mother Tang had not expected Tang Jucheng's injuries to heal so quickly. Today the pain was completely gone; it looked like he would soon be fully recovered.
"Let's go see Uncle Tang," Wei Zhao said.
"Hm? Yun'er, is the wound on your head really healed?" At this, Mother Tang came closer and saw clearly the state of Tang Zhi's forehead. Sure enough, only a faint scar remained, with nothing else out of the ordinary — and that scar was already so shallow it was nearly invisible. In time, it would probably disappear altogether.
"Yes! It's really healed!" Tang Zhi said, then gave Wei Zhao a shy glance before turning to her mother.
"Xiaoyi's medical skill really is beyond praise!" Mother Tang lavished her compliments without reserve, the admiration in her eyes growing as she looked at Wei Zhao. She felt her daughter was truly fortunate to have met Wei Zhao — she would never have to worry for the rest of her life! And their family's circumstances would gradually improve as well!
Mother Tang had seen the news too — the Qibing Building's dramatic collapse had been on television. Though no cause was given, only that the construction quality had failed to meet standards, Mother Tang knew the truth was probably not so simple!
How could it be a coincidence? Wei Zhao had just settled scores with Zhao Qibing, and now his tower had collapsed because the construction quality failed inspection? How could that be? Anyone with half a brain could figure out that Wei Zhao had brought it down!
At the time, Wei Zhao had told Fatty Lai to round up bulldozers, excavators, and a demolition crew. If that tower had collapsed on its own, that would be a miracle! Even if Zhao Qibing were a crooked businessman who cut corners on materials, he would never cut corners on the tower that housed his own group's offices!
After all, he worked in that tower himself day in and day out, and the tower was the company's face! If even the office building failed quality standards, how could anyone dare buy property developed by his company?
But Zhao Qibing had no choice. Compared to that, losing face was worse. He would sooner swallow his broken teeth than admit his tower failed inspection, rather than publicly confess that Wei Zhao had torn his tower down!
Mother Tang was delighted. Zhao Qibing had wrecked her home, so Wei Zhao went and wrecked his tower! He had ruined Tang Zhi's face and broken Tang Jucheng's legs, and Wei Zhao had done the same to him, disfiguring his face and breaking his legs!
The Mother Tang of the past would never have dared dream of such a thing! Those people had money and power, and how could her family ever match them? When wronged, with nowhere to turn, all they could do was swallow their anger. But things were different now, Wei Zhao was protecting her family!
Wei Zhao followed Mother Tang and Tang Zhi to Tang Jucheng's hospital room. At that moment Tang Jucheng was listening to the radio, and at the sight of Wei Zhao, a rare smile appeared on his face. Then, seeing that there seemed to be not the slightest problem with his daughter's forehead, he was astonished beyond measure!
Since being admitted to the hospital, Tang Jucheng had not visited Tang Zhi's room, but he knew how badly she had been hurt. Earlier, in front of their home in the shantytown, at the moment they lifted her onto the ambulance, he had seen his daughter's blood-covered face!
"Xiaoyi's here, sit down, quick! Yunyun, your head wound, is it all right now?" Tang Jucheng switched off the radio and stared at his daughter in shock and doubt.
