Reborn as a Tough Army Wife

Luo Zhiyong's complexion darkened. He immediately asked Yu'er to fetch some clothes and to get ready to go to the hospital, meanwhile asking, "Have they taken him to the hospital?"

"He's at the hospital now." Li Shunsheng said urgently, "I just went to your military unit to ask, and they said you weren't there, so I came here."

"Which hospital?"

"Provincial People's Hospital," Li Shunsheng replied, "He's currently being resuscitated."

As soon as the word "resuscitation" was mentioned, Li Honglan started to cry anxiously, "What should we do? I hope my second brother will be alright."

Seeing Luo Honglan so worried, Li Shunsheng immediately gestured with his hands and said, "There's no life-threatening danger, but we can't say much about other issues for now. When I left, he was still in the operating room."

Luo Zhiyong nodded, quickly put on his clothes, and instructed Fang Pingying, "Pingying, you and Yu'er keep an eye on the shop. Hong Lan and I will go to the hospital to take a look."

Fang Pingying immediately nodded, "Okay, you two go."

Luo Zhiyong and Luo Honglan hurried out the door, and since the hospital wasn't far, they reached it in about ten minutes.

By the time they arrived at the hospital, Luo Zhiming had been moved from the emergency room to a ward, and was now unconscious.

Outside the ward, both the owner and the manager of the lumber mill were present.

They all knew Luo Zhiyong. When the boss saw him, he called out, "Zhiyong, you're here."

Luo Zhiyong shook hands with him and quickly asked, "How is my brother?"

"It's not too serious," said the boss, relaying what the doctor had said, "but the doctor mentioned he needs to stay in the hospital for a while, and there might be..."

Knowing the boss probably had many things to explain, Luo Zhiyong told Luo Honglan to go into the ward with Li Shunsheng first, "Hong Lan, you go in and keep watch over your second brother. If he wakes up, come and call me."

After that, he continued the conversation with the boss, "Go on with what you were saying."

"The doctor said Zhiming has injured his nerves, but it's not very serious. He should recover with some rest." After sharing this, the boss explained to Luo Zhiyong the reason why Luo Zhiming got injured.

To be honest, it was really Luo Zhiming's own fault.

There was a driver who came to load lumber today, brining along a pretty girl in her teens. Luo Zhiming was busy talking to the girl and got hit by accident while loading.

However, since the accident took place in the factory and, coupled with the fact that the boss was on good terms with Huang Lin and knew Luo Zhiyong well, the man was quite decent. After explaining the situation, he said, "Zhiyong, don't worry. Since Zhiming's accident happened at my lumber factory, we will cover all his medical bills and any subsequent costs. It's just that your family will need to provide someone to take care of him at the hospital."

After hearing all this from the boss, Luo Zhiyong felt somewhat embarrassed. Having a brother like this was indeed disgraceful, and it seemed inappropriate to expect compensation.

But if the factory didn't pay, Luo Zhiming himself wouldn't have enough money for his treatment. Moreover, since the boss had promised personally, Luo Zhiyong didn't reject the offer. Besides, with all the chaotic matters at home, he couldn't refuse on behalf of Luo Zhiming.

Upon hearing the boss saying they needed someone to provide care, he immediately accepted, "Alright, no problem with that. I'll have my sister take care of it."

"That settles it," said the boss, afraid Luo Zhiyong might still be concerned, he specifically asked him to go inquire about the condition together, "Why don't we both ask the doctor for more details about Zhiming's injuries?"

Regardless, the matter still needed to be clarified. Luo Zhiyong nodded, "Yeah, let's ask."

The doctor's words were exactly the same as those of Boss Zhiming. They said that Luo Zhiming's injuries were somewhat serious, but they shouldn't be a major issue. After some treatment, he would gradually recover; he just needed to stay in the hospital for a while.

Accidents like this happen in every factory. Since the boss had promised to take care of all expenses and it was mainly Luo Zhiming himself who was at fault to begin with, Luo Zhiyong felt there was nothing to pursue.

Besides, they were all acquainted. This boss and Huang Lin were very close, and Luo Zhiyong really didn't feel comfortable bringing up the issue.

After understanding the situation, Luo Zhiyong let the boss go back first and arranged for someone to watch over here.

After settling things with everyone, the boss went back for now, and Luo Zhiyong went to the ward.

In the ward, Luo Zhiming had already woken up, with Luo Honglan by his side helping him drink water.

Thinking of the reason why Luo Zhiming was injured, Luo Zhiyong sighed.

Luo Zhiming was lying in the hospital bed. Luo Zhiyong walked to his bedside, glanced at him, and asked, "Feeling any better?"

"Big brother, what did the doctor say? Am I going to be disabled?" Luo Zhiming, hearing from Luo Honglan that Luo Zhiyong had just been discussing something with the boss, knew for sure it was about compensation. As soon as he saw Luo Zhiyong coming in, he anxiously asked,

"By the way, where's my boss? If my leg really ends up disabled, I won't let him off so easily. If he doesn't pay tens of thousands, I'll move into his house."

Luo Zhiyong originally wanted to scold him, but now seeing him not only being unreflective of his mistake and causing trouble, but also talking like this, he couldn't help but get angry and frowned at Luo Zhiming, "Luo Zhiming, have you gone crazy for money? Always trying to swindle people's money, what's the matter with you?"

Luo Zhiming seemed not to hear what Luo Zhiyong said, his eyes scanning outside as he shouted, "Where's my boss? Boss?"

He thought the boss was outside and would surely come in upon hearing his shouting to discuss the matter.

"He's temporarily gone back." Luo Zhiyong looked at him without good humor, "An incident occurred at the factory today; he had to go back and deal with it."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiming frowned at Luo Zhiyong, "You let him go?"

"Can you even restrict people from leaving?" Luo Zhiyong roared, then said, "Your leg isn't too badly harmed. I asked the doctor, he said you just need to be hospitalized for a while and then you'll recover."

After hearing this, Luo Zhiming's expression was ambiguous, showing neither joy nor disappointment. He was silent for a moment.

A while later, he asked Luo Zhiyong again, "How much does my boss plan to compensate?"

"Compensate what." Luo Zhiyong was so angry he didn't know what to say and just sighed, looking at him with a frown, "You actually got injured because of your own fault, yet the boss is paying your medical bills and even shouldering your follow-up nutrition costs. What more do you want?"

Luo Zhiming looked at Luo Zhiyong, seemingly having thought of something suddenly, and squinted his eyes at Luo Zhiyong, "I get it, you're too familiar with the boss, so you feel embarrassed to ask for money, right?"

"You…" Luo Zhiyong helplessly started, "Luo Zhiming, we all want to make money, but it has to be done in an honest way. Tell me, how did you get injured today?"

Speaking of the reason for his injury, Luo Zhiming knew in his heart, and he coughed guiltily.

But in his opinion, this was a good opportunity to extort money and he couldn't let it go.

He insisted, "I don't care, the fact is I got injured while I was working, so the boss must compensate for my loss." (To be continued.
