Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 317: Chapter 317: Worse than Beasts

Thinking of Guo Anyi, Yunyi planned to return the carrying basket to her courtyard first, then go by the health clinic to check on Guo Shuiyu.

But before she could leave, someone knocked on her main gate. ”Who is it?” Yunyi called out.

The voice of Nurse Kong Jiaqiao came from outside. ”Doctor Chu, hurry! Doctor Qiu needs you quickly.”

Yunyi had just finished washing her hands and shook the water off them. ”What happened?”

Kong Jiaqiao looked frantic. ”An injured person was brought in from Zhang Family Village. Their condition isn’t good. Doctor Qiu asked you to take a look.”

Upon hearing this, Yunyi hurried out.

When she saw Guo Shuiyu, anger flared within her. If it was truly as she’d just heard, that her husband Zhang Chunshan had struck her, then cursing him is too mild a punishment. What kind of deep-seated hatred would make him strike her so brutally?

Doctor Qiu spotted her arrival and sighed in relief. Guo Shuiyu’s injuries were severe, and as a male doctor, he felt uncomfortable handling them. ”Doctor Chu, she’s all yours.”

He then stepped back, making way for Yunyi.

After Yunyi examined her, she reported, ”Her spleen is damaged. She must be sent to the county hospital for treatment immediately.”

The bystanders gasped. How hard must he have hit her to cause such injuries? they wondered.

Hearing she needed to go to the county hospital, Zhang Chunshan stood up abruptly. ”No treatment! I’m taking her home now!”

Yunyi saw him pushing through to grab Guo Shuiyu and intervened, blocking him. ”Her spleen has ruptured. Severe bleeding could lead to shock. Do you want her to die?”

Zhang Chunshan was intimidated by Yunyi’s forcefulness and quickly withdrew his hand.

But then, A mere slip of a girl scared me! The thought made him lose face. ”You little brat, what do you know? Stop trying to scare me with talk of life and death!”

If Zhang Chunshan really takes her back, Guo Shuiyu will likely die, Yunyi knew. ”She is your wife! Are you treating her life as worthless?”

Zhang Chunshan glared at Yunyi. ”This is my family’s business! You’re overstepping!”

With that, he lunged for Guo Shuiyu again.

Looking at Guo Shuiyu lying there, her face devoid of hope, Yunyi became even more resolute. I can’t let him succeed! she thought, then shouted to the onlookers, ”Someone call the police!”

Hearing the call for the police, Zhang Chunshan grew even more enraged. ”Who dares!”

He raised his hand to strike Yunyi, but before it could land, she sent him flying into the wall.

Yunyi’s swift, skillful move stunned the onlookers.

Zhang Chunshan, a former soldier, sent flying by a kick from a girl who looked as if she couldn’t even truss a chicken! Such strength is astounding! they marveled.

Sympathizers of Guo Shuiyu’s plight ran to the security team.

Soon, Deputy Captain Geng Jiangshan of the security team arrived with his men. ”Zhang Chunshan, still trying to act tough at a time like this? Look at the mess you’ve made!”

After all, Zhang Chunshan was one of their farm brigade’s men; they couldn’t just stand by.

Geng Jiangshan turned to a team member. ”No more delays. Notify the motor pool to send a vehicle immediately.”

Then, looking at Yunyi, he said, ”Doctor Chu, I’m afraid we’ll have to trouble you to accompany us.”

Yunyi nodded. ”You all wait outside. I’ll tend to her external injuries first.”

Once everyone had left, Yunyi finished examining Guo Shuiyu’s injuries. That kick was too light, she fumed silently. Zhang Chunshan is worse than an animal.

After quickly treating the superficial wounds, the vehicle arrived. Yunyi boarded it, heading towards the county city.

Upon arrival at the hospital, they rushed Guo Shuiyu to the operating room. Yunyi then turned to Geng Jiangshan, who had accompanied them. ”I need to step out for a moment,” she said.

Geng Jiangshan, knowing the vehicle would return soon, remarked, ”Doctor Chu, it’ll be heading back shortly. We can’t delay too long.”

Yunyi replied, ”I’m going to buy her a change of clothes.”

Geng Jiangshan then remembered Guo Shuiyu’s blood-soaked clothes. ”Alright,” he consented. ”Be quick.”

Yunyi left the hospital and went straight to the county’s department store.

She had just purchased underwear in Guo Shuiyu’s size and was about to buy an outfit for her when, passing a handicrafts counter, she overheard someone talking behind it: ”Stop crying. The most important thing now is to find someone to see if it can be repaired.”
