Liang Chengpeng had heard of what happened and sighed. “Chief Dong, you had agreed to take on this task, and it’s not your character to give up halfway.” Liang Chengpeng persuaded Dong Xuebing and kept emphasizing to think of the big picture.

After hanging up, Dong Xuebing threw his phone on the table.

Big picture, my ass! In the end, everything is for Xiang Daofa’s credit!

Suddenly, someone opened the door from outside. Luan Xiaoping entered the apartment and saw her son sitting on the sofa angrily. She quickly changed into slippers and asked. “What happened? Are you not happy at work? You were still fine this afternoon.”

Dong Xuebing smacked his lips and said. “Don’t talk about it.”

Luan Xiaoping looks at her son. “You… since young, you took everything to heart. Just stop thinking about those unhappy things, and everything will be over after a good sleep.”

Dong Xuebing nodded. “Oh, why are you here?”

Luan Xiaoping smiled and took out a magazine from her bag. “My school’s Teacher Liu has this magazine, and there are a few nice scarfs on it. I am thinking of knitting a scarf for you, and it should be ready within a month.” She sat on the sofa and showed her son the magazine. “Which design do you like? I will buy the yarn tomorrow.”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Didn’t I tell you not to tire yourself? I can just buy one off the shelves.”

“How can the ones you bought from outside be the same as the one I knit? All those scarfs selling outside are using low-quality yarn.”

“It’s the same as long as the scarf can keep me warm. You don’t need to waste your time.”

Luan Xiaoping replied with an angry expression. “Hurry up and choose a design! I have nothing to do at home also.”

Dong Xuebing did not want to argue with his mother and chose a simple design from the magazine. It should be easier to knit with a simple design. “I want this design.”

Luan Xiaoping looked at the picture and nodded, before folding the corner of the page.

“… alright… it’s late, and you should go to sleep. I will go back now.”

Dong Xuebing looks at the time. “It’s late now. Just sleep here tonight, or I can send you back.”

“What’s there to send? I know how to get back myself.” Luan Xiaoping laughed. “The shops are still open now, and I want to pick a good yarn for your scarf.”

Dong Xuebing laughed and held his mother’s shoulder. “Mum, your son, is also a multi-millionaire now, and it’s not that we cannot afford it. I don’t want you to tire yourself, and I will be worried if you get a stroke because of overworked. If you want to knit a scarf, just knit it. But don’t rush yourself. I can wear a scarf next winter.”

Luan Xiaoping patted Dong Xuebing’s hand. “Haha… I know what to do. Don’t worry.”

“Fine… fine… I will let you win.”

“I am your mother, and I know more than you.” Luan Xiaoping nagged at her son a while more before leaving. Dong Xuebing wanted to send her back, but Luan Xiaoping refused. She knows Dong Xuebing is not in a good mood and wants him to have a good rest.

After Dong Xuebing’s mother’s visit, his mood got better.

Dong Xuebing did not think of the incident and went to bed.

Half an hour…

One hour…

In the middle of the night, Dong Xuebing’s phone rang.

Dong Xuebing woke up and looked at the time. It’s already 9.30 pm. He wondered who is calling him at this hour and it’s an unknown number. “Hello, who is this?”

“Chief Dong, I’m from the Traffic Department.”

Traffic Officers again? Dong Xuebing sat up and asked. “What is it?”

“We are now at the hospital. Your…” The Officer sounded worried. “Your mother was knocked down by a car.”

“What?!” Dong Xuebing jumped off the bed. “What did you say?”

“Your mother was knocked down by a car and is now at County’s People Hospital.”

Dong Xuebing shouted angrily. “When did it happen? Why didn’t you all report to me earlier?”

“The accident happened about 20 minutes ago. Your mother had met an accident on the road south of the Shopping mall. She had fainted when we reached there, and we don’t know her identity. It was until we found her identity card at the hospital, and we realized she is your mother. This…” almost everyone from Hui Tian Police Station knows Luan Xiaoping is Chief Dong’s mother. But in the County Public Security, not many officers know who she is.

Dong Xuebing’s face turned pale.

Dong Xuebing had only a few minutes of BACK left and cannot return to 20 minutes ago!

“How is her condition? Is she in danger?”

“No. She might have injured her hands and waist, but the Doctor says she is fine. They are still checking if she has any fractures.”

“Is my mother awake?”

“She just woke up. She asked you not to worry, and she is fine.”

Fine?! How can someone be fine after getting knocked down by a car?! Dong Xuebing shouted. “Wait for me! I will go over now!” He threw his phone aside and quickly got dress before rushing out. He sped to People Hospital!

Second floor.

Luan Xiaoping is on the drip in the ward.

Dong Xuebing barged into the ward. “Mum! Are you ok?!”

Luan Xiaoping replied. “Didn’t I say I am fine? It was just a slight bump.” The two Traffic Officers in the ward exchanged looks and waited outside.

Dong Xuebing gritted his teeth. “You can still say you are fine in this state?! Are your hands still painful?”

“Haha… It’s not painful now.” Luan Xiaoping continued. “My waist is also fine. Go home and sleep.”

Dong Xuebing is furious. “How can I still sleep now?” He sat on the bed and looked at his mother’s bandaged hand. He almost cried. “I told you not to buy the yarn so late at night… you…”

At this time, a doctor entered the ward. “Chief Dong.”

Dong Xuebing asked. “Doctor, how is my mother’s condition? Are the results of her checks out?”

The Doctor took out an X-ray and said. “She is fine. From the X-ray, we cannot see any fractures. But her blood pressure and heart rate are not very stable now because of the shock. We are putting her on the drip, and I suggest for her to receive treatment in the hospital for at least a week to control her blood pressure.”

Dong Xuebing was relieved to hear that.

Luan Xiaoping laughed. “Didn’t I say I am fine? You can rest assured now.”

Dong Xuebing’s eyes turned red as he held his mother’s hand. “Have a good rest, and let me handle the rest!” He stood up and walked out of the ward. The moment the door closed behind him, Dong Xuebing’s face changed, and he looked at the two Traffic Officers. “Where is the driver?!”

“… he escaped.”

“Check the CCTVs! I want to find him!”
